    Full text link
    Dalam menjalankan bisnis USAha konstruksi diperlukan manajemen risiko sehingga Perusahaan konstruksi dapat terhindar dari kerugian-kerugian yang bisa terjadi di kemudian hari, utamanya kerugian finansial. Salah satu hal yang dapat menimbulkan kerugian finansial adalah kesalahan saat penyusunan rencana anggaran biaya (RAB). Untuk menghitung estimasi RAB proyek dengan tidak mengurangi analisis manajemen risiko maka dapat digunakan simulasi Monte Carlo. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui estimasi biaya proyek pembangunan Gedung Stikes Maharani Malang untuk setiap tinjauan prestasi pekerjaan 25%, 50%, 75% dan 100% berdasarkan simulasi Monte Carlo dengan menggunakan software Microsoft Excel dan Matrix Laboratory (MATLAB). Simulasi Monte Carlo merupakan penerapan metode Monte Carlo yang bertujuan untuk menganalisis perambatan ketidakpastian. Simulasi Monte Carlo melibatkan penggunaan angka acak (angka random) untuk memodalkan sistem sehingga pada penelitian ini digunakan dua software untuk menentukan angka random yaitu Microsoft Excel dan MATLAB dimana angka random yang diambil merupakan angka diantara nilai minimum dan maksimum setiap jenis pekerjaan yang dilakukan di proyek dan dilakukan pengulangan sesuai dengan jumlah iterasi yang terjadi dengan relative error 2% untuk kemudian dianalisis grafik frekuensi dan distribusi normalnya. Hasil perhitungan untuk setiap tinjauan prestasi pekerjaan 25%, 50%, 75% dan 100% dengan Microsoft Excel didapatkan hasil Rp.551.595.027,00, Rp.1.314.281.050,00, Rp.1.979.274.780,00 dan Rp.2.749.950.172,00. Sedangkan hasil perhitungan MATLAB adalah Rp.602.271.117,00, Rp.1.310.689.823,00, Rp.1.980.164.824,00 dan Rp.2.740.729.439,00. Hasil tersebut merupakan nilai rerata dari grafik frekuensi dan distribusi normal dan menunjukkan peluang terbesar dana yang dikeluarkan oleh Perusahaan untuk mencapai prestasi pekerjaan yang ditinjau. Berdasarkan perhitungan dua software tersebut tidak terdapat perbedaan hasil yang besar dan kesalahan relatif cenderung kecil yaitu dibawah 1% kecuali untuk perhitungan pada tinjauan prestasi 25% dimana kesalahan relatifnya mencapai angka 8%

    Conformational study of a collagen peptide by 1H NMR spectroscopy: observation of the 14N-1H spin-spin coupling of the Arg guanidinium moiety in the triple-helix structure

    AbstractCB2, a CNBr peptide of 36 residues from type I collagen α1(I) chain has been studied by NMR spectroscopy as a function of temperature. At low temperature, the guanidinium protons of Arg9 showed sharp 1:1:1 NMR triplets around 6.95 ppm, characteristic of 14N coupled protons (1JNH=52 Hz) when the quadrupolar relaxation rate is drastically reduced. These spectral characteristics and the low temperature coefficient of the 1:1:1 triplets (Δδ/ΔT of −3.6 ppb/°C) suggest that the H atoms of the protonated guanidinium moiety of Arg9 in the triple helix are slowly exchanging with bulk water, most likely involved in hydrogen bonds. On the basis of conformational energy computations on a model segment of type I collagen (Vitagliano, L., Némethy, G., Zagari, A. and Scheraga, H.A. (1993) Biochemistry 32, 7354–7359), similar to CB2, our data could indicate that the guanidinium group of Arg9 form hydrogen bonds with a backbone carbonyl of an adjacent chain probably by using the Nϵ hydrogen, leaving the four Nη hydrogens bound to water molecules that must be in slow exchange with bulk water and that could therefore be considered structural elements of the trimeric α1(I) CB2 triple helix. The behaviour of Arg9 has been investigated also in terms of equilibrium between random monomer and helical trimer conformations controlled by temperature. The thermal unfolding process was found to be reversible and the melting point resulted to be 17°C

    Inclusivity and Indie Authors: the Case for Community-Based Publishing

    Full text link
    African Americans remain marginalized within the children’s publishing industry, despite the 2014 increase in books about Africans/African Americans. This sudden spike was not paired with a comparable increase in the number of books by Blacks, however, suggesting that power remains where it has always been: in the hands of whites. The homogeneity of the publishing workforce matches the homogeneity of published authors and their books. The marginalization of writers of color is the result of very deliberate decisions made by gatekeepers within the children’s literature community—editors, agents, librarians, and reviewers. These decisions place insurmountable barriers in the path of far too many talented writers of color. In this essay I advocate for a model of community-based publishing that uses printon- demand technology to transfer power from the industry’s (mostly white) gatekeepers to those excluded from the publishing process. I will also demonstrate how public libraries place additional barriers in the path of writers of color by adhering to policies that prevent self-published books from being acquired. Indie authors and their books offer important counter-narratives that cannot easily circulate—particularly in low-income communities—without the assistance of libraries and informed, nonbiased librarians

    To Build A Home

    It is in our nature as humans to want for a home, a point of origin to start from and safe place to return at journey\u27s end. When that place is lost, we risk becoming lost too. This body of work is an exploration of how the spaces we occupy shape us. It\u27s location is focused on the American landscape in an attempt to explore the ideals that have developed within the psyche of the American culture, and what happens to those dreams when expectations do not mirror reality. I am particularly interested in socially and geographically vulnerable locations. Places that are in liminal states of existence because of tragedy or economic failure.! What happens when we do not just lose our sense of home, but we lose the very geographic location that we once knew as home? Can home ever truly be found again once it has been lost? It is hard to ignore the ever more pressing issues surrounding population, social class, energy crisis, and depletion of natural resources. When our economic decisions overshadow our human and cultural needs we risk far more than just losing the building we call home or the streets that collectively makeup that location. We risk losing our values, morals, history, and even future. The particular interest of this body of work comes from my own personal experiences as well as borrowed stories. Born in a Pennsylvania oil refinery town, I am no stranger to the perils of the over-consumption of natural resources. As a former resident of Oakland, CA, a socially vibrant city, perpetually in an economically and geographically vulnerable position, I have developed a sensitivity to the unique relationship that a cultural sense of belonging has on the urban psyche and landscape. As a current resident of Rochester, NY, a rustbelt city living in the shadow of the monoliths of its cultural prowess, I have cultivated an appreciation for the historical significance of specific local and the role that memory plays in shaping one\u27s sense of home. It is places like this that stir my imagination and sympathies. I have gathered and collected these homes that have shaped me. They will now travel with me as memories and stories that guide this work, to honor the very idea of home in all of its manifestations

    Correlations between isospin dynamics and Intermediate Mass Fragments emission time scales: a probe for the symmetry energy in asymmetric nuclear matter

    We show new data from the 64^{64}Ni+124^{124}Sn and 58^{58}Ni+112^{112}Sn reactions studied in direct kinematics with the CHIMERA detector at INFN-LNS and compared with the reverse kinematics reactions at the same incident beam energy (35 A MeV). Analyzing the data with the method of relative velocity correlations, fragments coming from statistical decay of an excited projectile-like (PLF) or target-like (TLF) fragments are discriminated from the ones coming from dynamical emission in the early stages of the reaction. By comparing data of the reverse kinematics experiment with a stochastic mean field (SMF) + GEMINI calculations our results show that observables from neck fragmentation mechanism add valuable constraints on the density dependence of symmetry energy. An indication is found for a moderately stiff symmetry energy potential term of EOS.Comment: Talk given by E.
