Computational modelling and experimental characterisation of heterogeneous materials

Heterogeneous materials can exhibit behaviour under load that cannot be described by classical continuum elasticity. Beams in bending can show a relative stiffening as the beam depth tends to zero, a size effect. Size effects are recognised in higher order continuum elastic theories such as micropolar elasticity. The drawback of higher order theories is the requirement of addition constitutive relations and associated properties that are often difficult to establish experimentally. Furthermore the finite element method, of great benefit in classical elasticity, has shown limitations when applied to micropolar elasticity. The determination of additional constitutive properties and the computational modelling of micropolar elasticity will be discussed in the context of a model heterogeneous material loaded in simple 3 point bending. The model material was created by drilling holes in aluminium bar in a regular pattern, with the hole axis normal to the plane of bending. The bending tests show that a size effect is present. These results are compared against modelling the detailed beam geometries in the finite element package ANSYS, which again shows the size effect. These two bending test are used to extract the additional micropolar elastic material properties. A comparison is then made against analytical solutions,numerical solutions using a micropolar beam finite element and a micropolar plane stress control volume method.It will be shown that the need for extensive experimental testing to determine the additional constitutive properties may not be necessary with the appropriate use of numerical methods

Aerobic Exercise Treatment Model as an Attempt to Improve Promotif and Preventive Functions of Pulmonary Capacity

Pulmonary function respiration system as important in the human body, the function provides oxygen (O2) from the outside of the body for the process of cell metabolism and removing carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) from the body. Function lung capacity is influenced by genetic, age, gender, height, pulmonary disease, smoking habit and custom of the sport. Aerobic exercises are done routinely run will cause the change form on the muscular system, circulatory system, cardiovascular system and ability of lung capacity function.  Response to aerobic exercise against pulmonary function capacity depending on exercise intensity, duration and frequency of exercise. The purpose of this research is to know the influence of aerobic exercise against pulmonary function capacity. This research is Experimental Quasy Study, with design of Pretest-Posttest with control group design. The sample amounted to 35 people. The results of the statistical analysis show that there is a significant influence of aerobic exercise to increased lung capacity function. The mean FVC after sports increased 1, 10% with p value = 0,017 and average FEV1 after sports increased 0, 23% with p value = 0,005. Time duration of exercise indicates the absence of effect on the changes in pulmonary function capacity (FVC p value = 0,494 and FEV1 p value = 0,805). Frequency of exercise 3 times a week showed the existence of significant influence towards increasing lung capacity function (FVC p value = 0,001 and  FEV1 p value = 0,000). Key words: aerobic Exercise, time duration, frequency, FVC (Forced Vital Capacity), FEV1 (Forced Expiratory Volume in One Second

Peningkatan Nilai Tambah Agribisnis melalui Penerapan Inovasi Teknologi USAhatani Padi : Studi Kasus Kegiatan Prima Tani Kabupaten Musi Rawas, Sumatera Selatan

Increasing of Agribusiness Value Added through Aplication of Rice Farming System TechnolgyInnovation: A Case Study of Prima Tani Activity In Musi Rawas District, South Sumatera. The application oftechnology innovation was conducted to overcome productivity disparity, to increase farmer income and to improvefarmer prosperity. Technology innovation on rice farming has been applied at “Prima Tani” activities on intensiveirrigation land since 2005 in South Sumatera Province. The aim of this study was to compare the application oftechnology innovation, cost production and rice farming income between participant and non participant farmers. Dataof rice farming activity during wet season in 2006/2007 was collected in Mei until September 2007 by interviewingparticipant farmer of Prima Tani in Kertosari Village and compared the result to the non participant in PurwakaryaVillage, Purwodadi Sub-district, Musi Rawas Regency. Samples was taken by Disproportionate Stratified RandomSampling. Result showed that the scores of technology application from participant and non participant farmerswere 6.38 and 4.37 respectively. However, there was no statistically difference between two farmers groups andincluded as medium category of technology application. The productivity of harvested dried rice of participantfarmers was 7. 8 kg/ha and 7.2 5 kg/ha for non participant farmers. Total cost of rice farming for participant andnon participant farmers were Rp.5,786,035/ha and Rp.6,663,875/ha respectively. Rice farming income of participantfarmer (Rp.8,228,9 5/ha) was significantly different from those in non-participant farmer (Rp.7,235,435/ha).Key words: Paddy, farming system, innovation, income. Penerapan teknologi inovasi dilakukan untuk mengatasi masalah senjang produktivitas, meningkatkanpendapatan USAhatani dan kesejahteraan petani. Inovasi teknologi pada USAhatani padi dilakukan melaluikegiatan Prima Tani lahan irigasi intensif Provinsi Sumatera Selatan sejak tahun 2005. Kegiatan ini bertujuanuntuk membandingkan penerapan teknologi USAhatani padi, biaya yang dikeluarkan dan pendapatan USAhatanipadi yang diperoleh oleh petani peserta dan bukan peserta Prima Tani. Pengumpulan data untuk meliput aktivitasusahatani dari musim hujan 2006/2007 dilakukan melalui wawancara pada bulan Mei-September 2007 padapetani peserta Prima Tani di Desa Kertosari dibandingkan dengan petani bukan peserta di Desa Purwakarya padakecamatan yang sama yaitu Kecamatan Purwodadi. Pengambilan sampel petani pemilik-penggarap secara AcakBerlapis Tak Berimbang. Hasil pengkajian menunjukkan bahwa skor penerapan teknologi pada petani pesertadan bukan peserta masing-masing 6,38 dan 4,37, tetapi secara statistik tidak berbeda nyata dan termasukdalam kategori penerapan teknologi pada tingkat sedang.
