De Stijl: Tektonika Ruang Empat Dimensional
No full textDefinisi ruang banyak mengalami perubahan pada era modern, terutama akibat adanya perubahan cara pandang terhadap ruang dan waktu. Di era yang sama, terdapat kelompok arsitek dan seniman dengan nama De Stijl yang juga membahas dinamika ruang tersebut. De Stijl merupakan gerakan seni yang dimulai pada tahun 1917 di Belanda. Di dalam kelompok De Stijl, terdapat dua tokoh penting yang secara jelas menyatakan pendapat yang saling bertolak belakang mengenai ruang, yaitu Piet Mondrian dan Theo van Doesburg. Perancangan Tugas Akhir ini dibahas sebagai sebuah kajian terhadap konsep ruang yang diperbincangkan di dalam kelompok tersebut untuk mengetahui konstruksi dan komposisi tektonika ruang dalam arsitektur jika ditinjau pada dimensi keempat berdasarkan diskursus ruang pada De Stijl. Perancangan ini merupakan proyek eksperimental berupa penerapan teori Neoplastisisme dari kelompok De Stijl dalam upaya memahami kompleksitas tapak. Eksplorasi tektonika ruang yang dilakukan dalam perancangan mengangkat kawasan Ampel, Surabaya sebagai studi kasus perancangan arsitektur. Proses perancangan dilakukan dengan mengoperasikan transformasi formal yang sama dengan yang sudah pernah dilakukan sebelumnya terhadap arsitektur pada tapak dengan tetap berpegang pada prinsip-prinsip De Stijl.

The definition of space has undergone many changes in the modern era. In the same era, there was a group of architects and artists, De Stijl, who also discussed spatial dynamics. De Stijl is an art movement that started in 1917 in the Netherlands. Within the De Stijl group, there were two important figures, Piet Mondrian and Theo van Doesburg, who clearly expressed contradictory opinions about space. This Final Project is a study of spatial concept discussed within De Stijl’s group to find out the construction and spatial composition of tectonics in architecture, which is seen as a four-dimensional space based on the spatial discourse in De Stijl. This is an experimental project of applying Neoplasticism theory from De Stijl's group in order to understand the complexity of the site. The spatial tectonic exploration carried out in the design elevates the Ampel Area, Surabaya as a case study in architectural design. The design process is carried out by carrying out the same formal transformation that has been done before for the architecture in the site while still adhering to the principles of De Stijl
Detection of the irradiated donor in the LMXBs 4U 1636-536 (=V801 Ara) and 4U 1735-444 (=V926 Sco)
Full text linkPhase-resolved VLT spectroscopy of the bursting low-mass X-ray binaries 4U 1636-536/V801 Ara and 4U 1735-444/V926 Sco is presented. Doppler images of the N iiiλ4640 Bowen transition reveal compact spots which we attribute to fluorescent emission from the donor star and enable us to define a new set of spectroscopic ephemerides. We measure Kem= 277 ± 22 and 226 ± 22 km s−1 from the N iii spots in V801 Ara and V926 Sco, respectively, which represent strict lower limits to the radial velocity semi-amplitude of the donor stars. Our new ephemerides provide confirmation that light-curve maxima in V801 Ara and likely V926 Sco occur at superior conjunction of the donor star and hence photometric modulation is caused by the visibility of the X-ray heated donor. The velocities of He iiλ4686 and the broad Bowen blend are strongly modulated with the orbital period, with phasing supporting emission dominated by the disc bulge. In addition, a reanalysis of burst oscillations in V801 Ara, using our spectroscopic T0, leads to K1= 90–113 km s−1. We also estimate the K-corrections for all possible disc flaring angles and present the first dynamical constraints on the masses of these X-ray bursters. These are K2= 360 ± 74 km s−1, f(M) = 0.76 ± 0.47 M⊙ and q= 0.21–0.34 for V801 Ara and K2= 298 ± 83 km s−1, f(M) = 0.53 ± 0.44 M⊙ and q= 0.05–0.41 for V926 Sco. Disc flaring angles α≥ 12° and q≃ 0.26–0.34 are favoured for V801 Ara whereas the lack of K1 constraint for V926 Sco prevents tight constraints on this system. Although both binaries seem to have intermediate inclinations, the larger equivalent width of the narrow N iii line in V801 Ara at phase 0.5 relative to phase 0 suggests that it has the higher inclination of the two

Full text linkShiva, Nailis. 2018. "Awareness and Unconsciousness of Fig Characters in Short Story" Memory of Ara "by Dewi Ria Utari. Essay. 1st degree (S-1) in Indonesian Literature Language. Faculty of Cultural Sciences, Diponegoro University, Semarang. Advisor 1 Drs. Mulyo Hadi Purnomo, M. Hum. Advisor II Laura Andri R.M., S.S., M.A.
Short story "Memory of Ara" tells about personality changes experienced by the figure Ara from an extravers to become an intravers. The author tries to examine and express the awareness and unconsciousness experienced by the figure of Ara by using sequence theory, structural theory, and the literary psychology approach of Carl Gustav Jung. Sequence theory is used to determine the main character and find the sequence of stories. Structural theory is used to determine the short story intrinsic element which is focused on the character and characterization, plot, and background. The literary psychology approach of Carl Gustav Jung is used to express the awareness and unconsciousness experienced by Ara figures as well as to discover the personality changes of the figure of Ara. The method used in this study is a qualitative descriptive method using a structural approach and a literary psychology approach.
The results of the analysis of awareness and unconsciousness of the figure of Ara in the short story "Ara Memory" by Dewi Ria Utari are (1) personality changes of Ara characters from extravers to intravers, (2) awareness experienced by Ara figures, including mental attitudes consisting of extravers and intravers, functions soul which consists of feeling, thingking, sensing, and intuisting, as well as personal unconsciousness experienced by the figure Ara.

Friends with benefits: the emergence of the Amsterdam–Rotterdam–Antwerp (ARA) polycentric port region
Full text linkThis paper enacts a dialogue between planning literature on polycentric urban regions (PUR) and port geography literature on multi-port gateways. The main proposition is that polycentric systems are the emergent outcome of the interactions between three dimensions of polycentricity: morphological, functional and institutional. The focus is on the Dutch–Belgian Amsterdam–Rotterdam–Antwerp (ARA) port–industrial region: one of the world’s largest concentrations of oil refining and petrochemical activity. The central question is to what extent is the ARA region a polycentric system and what explains this observed polycentricity? Our analyses demonstrate a high degree of morphological and functional polycentricity with each of the constituent (firms located in) ports connected through flows and specialization in processing and trading oil (products). However, this is not the intended result of formalized spatial planning, nor did the ARA ever became a frame of reference among planning agencies. Rather, it is the result of self-organization in the oil industry that has culminated in the emergence of the ARA as an internationally recognized spot market, later institutionally formalized in delivery contracts (oil futures) traded on international commodity exchanges. We conclude that polycentric systems could be understood as emergent systems that obtained generative capacities, in turn influencing its different constituting dimensions.Urban Development Managemen
Identification of a Kitaev quantum spin liquid by magnetic field angle dependence
No full text© 2022, The Author(s).Quantum spin liquids realize massive entanglement and fractional quasiparticles from localized spins, proposed as an avenue for quantum science and technology. In particular, topological quantum computations are suggested in the non-abelian phase of Kitaev quantum spin liquid with Majorana fermions, and detection of Majorana fermions is one of the most outstanding problems in modern condensed matter physics. Here, we propose a concrete way to identify the non-abelian Kitaev quantum spin liquid by magnetic field angle dependence. Topologically protected critical lines exist on a plane of magnetic field angles, and their shapes are determined by microscopic spin interactions. A chirality operator plays a key role in demonstrating microscopic dependences of the critical lines. We also show that the chirality operator can be used to evaluate topological properties of the non-abelian Kitaev quantum spin liquid without relying on Majorana fermion descriptions. Experimental criteria for the non-abelian spin liquid state are provided for future experiments.11Nsciescopu

It has also been recorded from reservoirs in the Mahaweli catchment (Victoria and Randenigala: Fig. 1A). In June 2014, the first author observed around 20 juveniles of ~ 80–100 mm SL in shallow water (~ 60–80 cm deep), among submerged roots, close to the bank, at the mouth of a stream draining into Badulu Oya of the Mahaweli basin, they were guarded by a pair of adults. The highest elevation from which we have recorded <i>C. ara</i> is at Kandy, about 500 m asl.</p> <p> <b>Molecular results.</b> Three <i>cox1</i> haplotypes were observed among Marulius group fishes collected in Sri Lanka, none of which have previously been observed in fishes collected in neighbouring continental regions. The three haplotypes correspond to <i>Channa ara</i> from the Mahaweli Basin (H1, <i>n</i> =4), <i>C.</i> cf. <i>ara</i> from the southwestern wet zone (H2, <i>n</i> =8), and <i>C. marulius</i> from the northern dry zone (H3, <i>n</i> =1).

The Sri Lankan <i>C. marulius</i> differs from continental <i>C. marulius</i> by 1.6–2.3%, doubling the known intraspecific genetic divergence at <i>cox1</i> that was previously observed across this species’ large continental geographical distribution encompassing India and western Myanmar. In contrast, the Sri Lankan <i>C.</i> cf. <i>ara</i> differs less from continental <i>C. marulius</i> (uncorrected pairwise genetic distance of 1.0–1.6%) than it does from the <i>C. marulius</i> that occurs on the same island, in Sri Lanka’s northern dry zone (2.0%).</p> <p> With the exceptions of <i>Channa marulius</i> and <i>C.</i> cf. <i>ara</i>, <i>C. ara</i> differs from all other species in the Marulius group by a minimum of 8% uncorrected pairwise genetic distance for <i>cox1</i> (Table 3).</p>Published as part of <i>Sudasinghe, Hiranya, Adamson, Eleanor A.

ARA PACIS AVGVSTAE: AN ASTRO-ARCHAEOLOGICAL ANALYSIS
Full text linkThe Ara Pacis Augustae (Altar of Augustan Peace) is examined as a shrine of light consistent with the astroorientation principles of Roman architect Vitruvius (c.25 BC). Italian archaeologists excavated (1937-38) and relocated the altar along Rome"s Tiber River – rotating it 75º counter- clockwise from the original orientation. While its magnificent marble sculpture may be viewed at the Museo dell’Ara Pacis, a key astronomical component of the altar"s architectural design has until now remained encoded on a paper site map. The author calculated the horizon declination (+11.3º decl.) of the altar"s original northeast opening with Program STONEHENGE (Hawkins 1983, 328-330), Guglielmo Gatti"s 1938 site map, and Google Earth satellite imagery: True Azimuth ≈ 75º; Latitude/Longitude = 41° 54" 10.47” N/12° 28" 44.60” E; Elevation ≈ 10 meters ASL; and Horizon Altitude ≈ +1.1º. The Ara Pacis was dedicated in 9 BC (Moretti 1947,7). Analysis shows that the axis of the Ara Pacis enclosure"s northeast opening originally was oriented to the rising Sun (+11.0º decl.) on both April 21st and August 27th. However, the iconography of the Ara Pacis supports an interpretation that only the April 21st sunrise orientation was intended, because each sculptural element of the Tellus frieze (young woman, flowing amphora, pair of fishes, ram, bull, infant twins) uniquely mirrors the astronomy: Venus (Morning Star phase) and the Zodiac constellations Aquarius-Pisces-Aries-Taurus- Gemini at dawn on the festival of Par ilia (Pales, goddess of shepherds), 21 April 9 BC. This month and day coincide with the founding of Rome on 21 April 1 ab urbe condita (a.u.c) as recorded by Roman historian Marcus Terentius Varro. The dedication year of 9 BC coincides with the 93rd iteration of the eight-year Earth-Venus Synodic Period when Venus also appeared as Morning Star on the first Dies Natalis Romae, 21 April 753 BC
Ghana's labor market (1987-92)
Full text linkUsing the household survey and other data sources, the authors analyze returns to education and other aspects of Ghana's labor market profile from 1987 to 1991. The labor force grew slower than the population did between 1980 and 1990, but the supply of labor is expected to increase as the population of youth is expected to grow faster from 1990 to 2000. And labor force participation rates for 26- to 45-year-olds have been increasing rapidly. Over time, the average labor force participation rates of women have become equal to men's; that of children younger than 15 has remained unchanged at 38 percent. More than half of Ghana's child laborers are employed in agriculture. The formal sector's share of employment is on the decline, while the private informal sector's share has increased, especially in urban areas. Over time, the informal sector (in which most workers have a primary education or less) has absorbed more labor than the formal sector (in which most workers have middle or secondary schooling). Unemployment is pervasive in urban areas, and is less visible in rural areas. Labor productivity may not have increased and is possibly declining. Between 1987 and 1992, there was reverse migration, with many people moving from urban to rural areas, mostly for family reasons. Employment-related migration has also been on the increase. As is true elsewhere, the level of education affects participation in the labor force. Literacy rates for women are lower than those for men, which is one reason men dominate the private formal sector. The rate of return to education increases with higher education and work experience. The return for each additional year of schooling rangesfrom 4 percent to 6 percent in Ghana, quite high for a Sub-Saharan African country. Private and social returns to education are greater for primary than for secondary or postsecondary education.Public Health Promotion,Health Economics&Finance,Health Monitoring&Evaluation,Labor Policies,Environmental Economics&Policies,Health Monitoring&Evaluation,Environmental Economics&Policies,Health Economics&Finance,Labor Standards,Poverty Assessment
From Phonebloks to Google Project Ara. A Case Study of the Application of Sustainable Mass Customization
No full textAbstractMass Customization (MC) has become a major trend in the consumer goods market in recent years. However, it is still unclear if MC goods have a positive impact on the environment due to the many influencing factors in comparison to mass produced goods. With Google's “Project Ara”, a modular and customizable smartphone approach is very likely to reach market maturity and its economic, social and ecologic impacts are still unclear. Using a qualitative case study approach, we shed light on its potential economic success. Furthermore, we use the two theoretical concepts of Eco Innovation (EI) and Systemic Innovation (SI) to assess Google Ara's potential to lead to changes in terms of ecologic and social concerns. In our analysis, we show that Project Ara has the potential to outperform its competitors of modular smartphones. We work out that Google's modular approach could lead to a longer useful life of smartphones – or at least for some components. Finally, we affirm Project Ara's general potential for being an SI. Even though Project Ara will very likely not change the complete smartphone market and the behavior of the involved actors, there is a potential for influencing sociocultural behavior in the long tail of the smartphone market
