Analisis Pengaruh Beban Lalu Lintas Terhadap Tingkat Kerusakan Jalan Soenandar Priyo Sudarmo, Kecamatan Prambon, Kabupaten Sidoarjo
Soenandar Priyo Sudarmo Road often experiences significant stress due to
high traffic volume and load, particularly from heavy vehicles used for various
industrial activities in Prambon District. Additionally, during the survey, various types
of damage were identified, such as pothole, alligator cracking, and raveling. Based on
this, the author conducted a study to analyze the impact of traffic load on the level of
damage to Soenandar Priyo Sudarmo Road. The primary data used included road
damage data, riding quality, and traffic counting, while the secondary data included
road geometric data and Average Daily Traffic. This study used the Indrasurya and
Dirgolaksono (1990) method to analyze road damage, as this method is an adaptation
of various previous road damage evaluation methods, taking into account road
conditions in Indonesia The effect of traffic load on road damage was analyzed using
exponential regression to identify the non-linear relationship between the independent
variable and the dependent variable. The analysis results showed that the types of road
damage found were quite diverse, including potholes, raveling, alligator cracking,
distortion, transverse and longitudinal cracks, rutting, patching, and edge
deterioration. Based on the analysis per segment, the average damage value per
segment ranged from 18.85% to 45.16%, with riding quality in the RQ 1 to RQ 3
categories. Regression showed that heavy vehicles, particularly ESAL 1.2–22 trailers,
had the most significant impact on road damage with an R² value of 0.905. This study
indicates that traffic load, particularly from heavy vehicles, significantly contributes
to road damage. Based on these results, recommended road maintenance is
categorized into light, moderate, and no maintenance, depending on the condition of
each segment
Pembangunan JLS Lot 3 Pantai Serang - Sumbersih
This internship report is based on the MBKM internship program conducted at the construction project of the South Coastal Road (JLS) Lot 3, located between Pantai Serang and Sumbersih in Panggungrejo District, Blitar Regency, East Java. The project is part of a national strategic initiative aimed at improving interregional connectivity and supporting local economic growth and tourism development. This internship provided students with hands-on experience in understanding various aspects of construction, including heavy equipment management, project administration, technical planning, occupational health and safety (OHS), and environmental management. During the internship, students also observed soil improvement methods, the implementation of bored pile foundations, and blasting operations used in the project. Through direct field involvement, students gained valuable practical insights into the implementation of large-scale construction projects.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
