Transportasi laut menjadi prioritas utama dalam pelaksanaan proses
kegiatan ekspor dan impor. Salah satu contohnya ialah kegiatan perdagangan
maupun ekspedisi dan pengiriman barang (freight forwarding) melalui angkutan
kapal. Sehingga berbagai upaya dilakukan oleh pihak pemilik kapal untuk
menjaga kualitas muatan yang diangkut agar tidak rusak selama pelayaran, yaitu
dengan menyimpan muatan tersebut didalam sebuah kontainer (peti kemas).
Untuk muatan tertentu yang sensitif terhadap perubahan suhu lingkungan seperti
daging, ikan, buah-buahan atau sayuran segar, juice, ice cream serta obat - obatan
digunakan kontainer berpendingin untuk menjaga kualitas muatan agar tetap baik
selama kapal berlayar hingga tiba di pelabuhan tujuan. Penelitian ini bertujuan
untuk mengetahui bagaimana pemuatan dan perawatan container reffer yang
sesuai dengan SOP di atas kapal beserta upaya penanganan dan pencegahan-nya.
Sehingga dengan penelitian ini diharapkan penanganan container reffer akan
berjalan lebih baik dan dapat mencegah kerugian yang ditimbulkan baik dari
perusahaan, crew kapal, ataupun pengirim.
Metode penelitian ini adalah dengan pendekatan kualitatif dan desain
penelitian deskriptif. Sumber data penelitian yang diambil adalah data primer dan
sekunder. Teknik pengumpulan data yang digunakan meliputi wawancara dan
observasi, serta studi pustaka dan dokumentasi, sehingga didapatkan teknik
keabsahan data triangulasi.
Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa terdapat beberapa permasalahan
yang sering terjadi pada saat membawa Container Reffer, yaitu meliputi
kerusakan pada mesin kompresor, penanganan tidak sesuai prosedur, rusaknya
konektor, pengaturan suhu, cuaca buruk dan benturan. Diperlukan penanganan
secara cepat dan tepat serta melibatkan koordinasi seluruh crew kapal agar
meminimalisir dampak masalah yang akan terjadi. Untuk mencegah masalah
tersebut terjadi, maka crew harus menjalankan SOP bongkar muat dan perawatan
dengan baik
Hydrogen peroxide production during experimental protein glycation
AbstractThe accumulation of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) during incubations of protein with glucose (experimental glycation) has previously been too low for direct measurement although it is suggested to be the precursor of protein-damaging hydroxylating agents. We have thus developed a simple H2O2-measuring technique which relies upon the rapid peroxide-mediated oxidation of Fe2+ to Fe3+ (catalysed by sorbitol) under acidic conditions followed by reaction of the latter cation with the dye, xylenol orange. We have used the method to demonstrate that incubation mixtures of protein and glucose generates nanomolar levels of hydrogen peroxide in the presence of protein under physiological conditions of pH and temperature
Future Missions to the Giant Planets that Can Advance Atmospheric Science Objectives:Space Science Reviews
Other papers in this special issue have discussed the diversity of planetary atmospheres and some of the key science questions for giant planet atmospheres to be addressed in the future. There are crucial measurements that can only be made by orbiters of giant planets and probes dropped into their atmospheres. To help the community be more effective developers of missions and users of data products, we summarize how NASA and ESA categorize their planetary space missions, and the restrictions and requirements placed on each category. We then discuss the atmospheric goals to be addressed by currently approved giant-planet missions as well as missions likely to be considered in the next few years, such as a joint NASA/ESA Ice Giant orbiter with atmospheric probe. Our focus is on interplanetary spacecraft, but we acknowledge the crucial role to be played by ground-based and near-Earth telescopes, as well as theoretical and laboratory work. © 2020, Springer Nature B.V
A Coverage Criterion for Spaced Seeds and its Applications to Support Vector Machine String Kernels and k-Mer Distances
Spaced seeds have been recently shown to not only detect more alignments, but
also to give a more accurate measure of phylogenetic distances (Boden et al.,
2013, Horwege et al., 2014, Leimeister et al., 2014), and to provide a lower
misclassification rate when used with Support Vector Machines (SVMs) (On-odera
and Shibuya, 2013), We confirm by independent experiments these two results,
and propose in this article to use a coverage criterion (Benson and Mak, 2008,
Martin, 2013, Martin and No{\'e}, 2014), to measure the seed efficiency in both
cases in order to design better seed patterns. We show first how this coverage
criterion can be directly measured by a full automaton-based approach. We then
illustrate how this criterion performs when compared with two other criteria
frequently used, namely the single-hit and multiple-hit criteria, through
correlation coefficients with the correct classification/the true distance. At
the end, for alignment-free distances, we propose an extension by adopting the
coverage criterion, show how it performs, and indicate how it can be
efficiently computed.Comment: http://online.liebertpub.com/doi/abs/10.1089/cmb.2014.017
The Mythology of Game Theory
Non-cooperative game theory is at its heart a theory of cognition, specifically a theory of how decisions are made. Game theory\u27s leverage is that we can design different payoffs, settings, player arrays, action possibilities, and information structures, and that these differences lead to different strategies, outcomes, and equilibria. It is well-known that, in experimental settings, people do not adopt the predicted strategies, outcomes, and equilibria. The standard response to this mismatch of prediction and observation is to add various psychological axioms to the game-theoretic framework. Regardless of the differing specific proposals and results, game theory uniformly makes certain cognitive assumptions that seem rarely to be acknowledged, much less interrogated. Indeed, it is not widely understood that game theory is essentially a cognitive theory. Here, we interrogate those cognitive assumptions. We do more than reject specific predictions from specific games. More broadly, we reject the underlying cognitive model implicitly assumed by game theory
Supergravity Null Scissors and Super-Crosses
In this paper we construct the supergravity solutions for the orthogonally
intersecting null scissors and the fluxed D-strings. We name the latter as the
super-crosses according to their shape. It turns out that the smeared solutions
are U-dual related to the intersecting -strings. Their open string
properties are also studied. As a by-product, we clarify the supersymmetry
conditions of D2-D2 pairs with most generic fluxes.Comment: 16 pages, 1 figure;v2. minor comment revised;v3. references added,

Discovery and Observations of ASASSN-13db, an EX Lupi-Type Accretion Event on a Low-Mass T Tauri Star
We discuss ASASSN-13db, an EX Lupi-type ("EXor") accretion event on the young
stellar object (YSO) SDSS J051011.01032826.2 (hereafter SDSSJ0510)
discovered by the All-Sky Automated Survey for SuperNovae (ASAS-SN). Using
archival photometric data of SDSSJ0510 we construct a pre-outburst spectral
energy distribution (SED) and find that it is consistent with a low-mass class
II YSO near the Orion star forming region ( pc). We present
follow-up photometric and spectroscopic observations of the source after the
5.4 magnitude outburst that began in September 2013 and ended
in early 2014. These data indicate an increase in temperature and luminosity
consistent with an accretion rate of yr,
three or more orders of magnitude greater than in quiescence. Spectroscopic
observations show a forest of narrow emission lines dominated by neutral
metallic lines from Fe I and some low-ionization lines. The properties of
ASASSN-13db are similar to those of the EXor prototype EX Lupi during its
strongest observed outburst in late 2008.Comment: 14 pages, 4 figures, 1 table. Updated May 2014 to reflect changes in
the final version published in ApJL. Photometric data presented in this
submission are included as ancillary files. For a brief video explaining this

Morse theory of the moment map for representations of quivers
The results of this paper concern the Morse theory of the norm-square of the
moment map on the space of representations of a quiver. We show that the
gradient flow of this function converges, and that the Morse stratification
induced by the gradient flow co-incides with the Harder-Narasimhan
stratification from algebraic geometry. Moreover, the limit of the gradient
flow is isomorphic to the graded object of the
Harder-Narasimhan-Jordan-H\"older filtration associated to the initial
conditions for the flow. With a view towards applications to Nakajima quiver
varieties we construct explicit local co-ordinates around the Morse strata and
(under a technical hypothesis on the stability parameter) describe the negative
normal space to the critical sets. Finally, we observe that the usual Kirwan
surjectivity theorems in rational cohomology and integral K-theory carry over
to this non-compact setting, and that these theorems generalize to certain
equivariant contexts.Comment: 48 pages, small revisions from previous version based on referee's

Comparing neonatal outcomes in women with preeclampsia and those with normal pregnancy
Background: Preeclampsia has remained an important public health problem in the developing world where it is associated with a five-fold increase in perinatal morbidity and mortality.
Objective: We set out to compare neonatal outcomes between women with preeclampsia and those with normal pregnancy. We also sought to evaluate factors associated with poor outcome in the neonates.
Materials and Methods: This was a prospective cohort study that enrolled 90 women (45 with preeclampsia and 45 with normal pregnancy) after 20 weeks gestation. Maternal socio-demographic and clinical information was obtained at enrolment and delivery using questionnaire. Neonatalanthropometric and physiologic data was obtained at delivery and used for classifying the birth weight according to the WHO classification. APGAR score was used to evaluate the presence of birth asphyxia. We defined poor outcome as the presence of at least one of low birth weight, prematurity, birth asphyxia and need for admission. SPSS version 25 was used in all analysis. Significance testing was set at p=0.05.
Results: The women with preeclampsia were significantly heavier at booking (BMI 29.0±6.9 Kg/ m2 vs 25.0±5.2. p=0.005), have higher mean booking systolic blood pressure (122.±22.6 mmHg vs 111.5±12.7mmHg, p=0.003) and diastolic blood pressure ( 7 9 . 8 ± 1 4 . 3mm Hgvs 68.8±9.0mmHg, p<0.001). Neonates of women with preeclampsia were significantly more premature ( meangestational age = 36 . 8 ± 3 . 2 week svs 38.7±2.0weeks, p=0.001) and lighter (mean birth weight =2,529±817.5g vs 3,079.2±527.4g, p<0.001). Overall, 22 (49.4%) of the neonates of women with preeclampsiahad significantly poor outcome compared with 12(27.4%) of the neonates of women with normal pregnancy (p=0.01). Univariate logistic analysis showed only being a male neonate, maternal preeclampsia and admission in index pregnancy were significantly associated with poor outcome. Multivariable logistic regression showed only being a male neonate to be 3 times more likely to have a poor outcome (Wald=5.34. OR=3.2, p=0.02)
Conclusions: Intrauterine exposure to preeclampsia is associated with poor neonatal outcomes especially in males
