Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
KAJIAN KENYAMANAN TERMAL PADA RUMAH TINGGAL DENGAN MODEL INNERCOURT
Get PDFABSTRAK. Sejak akhir abad ke-20, kota-kota dunia telah dilanda pemanasan global. Untuk mengatasi kondisi itu, rumah masyarakat kota tropis pada umumnya menggunakan sistem penghawaan buatan demi mendapatkan kenyamanan termal, seperti AC, ceiling fan atau kipas angin. Cara ini tentu mengakibatkan pemborosan energi dan memicu kondisi global itu lebih buruk lagi. Secara umum rumah tinggal mempunyai halaman depan dan belakang bangunan serta pada bagian ruang dalam dibuat tertutup. Untuk mendapatkan kenyamanan termal secara alami maka diupayakan terjadi pergerakan angin dari luar ke dalam bangunan melalui bukaan yaitu berupa pintu dan jendela pada bagian depan dan belakang rumah. Selain menggunakan bukaan di depan dan belakang bangunan maka ada beberapa cara lain untuk memperoleh kenyamanan termal secara alami antara lain dengan menggunakan air (kolam atau air mancur) dan cerobong udara. Rumah yang diteliti merupakan rumah kuno milik keturunan Tionghoa yang telah direnovasi pada tahun 1912. Rumah ini terletak di kawasan Pasar Gede yang biasa disebut kawasan Pecinan yang merupakan permukiman padat kota. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah berupaya membangun konsep desain yang membantu memecahkan permasalahan kenyamanan termal pada rumah tinggal di perkotaan yang padat dengan cara menguji kenyamanan termal pada rumah tinggal dengan model innercourt. Penelitian ini dilakukan melalui uji kenyamanan termal dengan cara mengukur suhu, kelembaban udara dan kecepatan angin pada area teras, innercourt dan ruang dalam. Alat ukur kenyamanan termal yang digunakan adalah model dijital LM-81HT dan LM-81AM. Pengukuran dilakukan pada 16 September 2013 jam 11.30 – 12.30 wib. Hasil Penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dengan media innercourt maka pada lantai satu terjadi penurunan suhu didalam bangunan terhadap suhu di luar bangunan mencapai 4°C sedangkan pada lantai dua terjadi penurunan suhu didalam bangunan terhadap suhu diluar bangunan mencapai 2°C. Dan pada lantai tiga menghasilkan suhu dalam ruang sama dengan suhu diluar bangunan.
ABSTRACT. Since end of 20th century, cities in the world have been hit by global warming. To overcome this condition, tropical house of community of the city have used artificial thermal system to get thermal comfort such as Air Conditioner, ceiling fan as well as fan. This methods will give another impact of waste energy and supporting worst global warming. Generally, a house has a front and rear yard in the building and spaces inside the house have made separately enclosed. To get thermal comfort naturally, thus it should be planned to have air circulation from outside to inside the house through windows and doors at the front and the rear of the house. There area some methods to get thermal comfort beside using doors and windows, such as providing waters inside the house (pools and fountain) as well as air chimney. The object of the research has been regarded as an old house belong to Chinese which had been renovated in 1912. This house is located at the area of Pasar Gede which known as China Town (Pecinan). The aim of this research is to create design concept which could solve a problem of thermal comfort within houses in the crowded cities by testing and assessing thermal comfort of houses with innercourt model. This research will be completed by measuring the temperature within the house, humidity and speed of the wind at terrace area, innercourt and space within the house. Measuring instrument that has been used is a digital model LM-81HT and LM-81AM. Measurement has been completed on 16th September 2013, time 11.30-12.30 WIB. The result of the research has shown that innercourt media has an significant role within house. There are significant changes on the first floor, temperature of this floor has decreased to 4°C. On the other hand, on second floor the temperature has decreased to 2°C. And on third floor the temperature is remain the same with the outside of the house
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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
No full textWe 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
