Analysis of Transient Seepage Through Levees
No full textLevees are a significant part of the United States flood protection infrastructure. It is estimated that over 100,000 miles of levees exist in the United States. Most of these levees were designed many years ago to protect farmland and rural areas. As growth continues in the United States, many of these levees are now protecting homes and other important structures. The American Society of Civil Engineers gave the levees in the United States a grade of D- in 2009. To bring flood protection up to modern standards there requires adequate methods of evaluating levees with respect to seepage, erosion, piping and slope instability. Transient seepage analyses provide an effective method of evaluating seepage through levees and its potentially destabilizing effects.
Floods against levees usually last for days or weeks. In response to a flood, pore pressures within the levee will change from negative (suction) to positive as the phreatic surface progresses through the levee. These changes can be calculated by finite element transient seepage analyses. In order for the transient seepage analysis to be valid, appropriate soil properties and initial conditions must be used. The research investigation described here provides simple and practical methods for estimating the initial conditions and soil properties required for transient seepage analyses, and illustrates their use through a number of examples.Ph.

Ecological Niche Modeling and Local Knowledge Predict New Populations of \u3cem\u3eGymnocladus assamicus\u3c/em\u3e a Critically Endangered Tree Species
No full textGymnocladus assamicus is a critically endangered tree species endemic to northeastern India. Local inhabitants traditionally used this species for a variety of purposes. However, rapid population declines led to the species being considered extinct, until fieldwork in 2004 to 2007 identified 14 discrete populations of 1 to 7 trees each. To overcome constraints on field surveys imposed by the region’s remoteness and rugged terrain, we targeted areas of further field inventories by estimating the potential distribution of the species. Ecological niche modeling enabled us to identify 26 sites which the model predicted to be highly suitable for the species’ occurrence. We conducted rapid field surveys at 14 of the most accessible of these predicted sites. New populations were discovered at 5 of the 14 surveyed sites. In the remaining 12 less accessible sites, we interviewed residents from nearby villages and obtained indirect evidence of populations at 5 additional sites, which remain to be confirmed by direct field observations. This study demonstrates the utility of niche modeling as a tool for locating new populations of rare and endangered species. Our results will enhance ongoing efforts towards in situ conservation of this endangered species

Reduced pyridine nucleotide linked oxidase systems in Euglena gracilis var. bacillaris, 1973
No full textThis study was designed to investigate the presence of selected reduced pyridine nucleotide oxidase systems in a streptomycin bleached strain of Euglena gracilis var. bacillaris. The enzymes studied were NADH and NADPH diaphorases, NADH and NADPH cytochrome c reductases, NADH and NADPH oxidases and NADH lipoyl dehydrogenase. For experimental purposes the cells were grown axenically in a medium in which tryptone and sodium acetate were the sole source of carbon. Cell-free extracts prepared via centrifugation were used as the source of all enzyme assays. The activities of enzymes were measured in a Beckman DB-G recording spectrophotometer. In the presence of substrate and enzyme the activity of diaphorases were determined by measuring the reduction of dichlorophenol indophenol (DCPIP) at 600 nm and the cytochrome c reductase activity was measured by the reduction of cytochrome c (increase in optical density) at 550 nm. The activity of oxidases was determined by following the oxidation of reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) and reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) spectrophotometrically at 340 nm. In the presence of enzyme and DL-lipomide the determination of lipoyl dehydrogenase activity was based on the oxidation of NADH (decrease in optical density) at 340 nm. The data obtained revealed the presence of NADH and NADPH diaphorases, NADH and NADPH cytochrome c reductases, NADH and NADPH oxidases and NADH lipoyl dehydrogenase in cell-free extracts of E. gracilis var. bacillaris. The effects of pH, protein concentration, substrate concentration, storage at -5 C, and the effects of metabolic inhibitors were determined spectrophotometrically. Utilizing polyacrylamide gel disc electrophoresis, NADH and NADPH diaphorase were shown to be molecularly heterogeneous. Results obtained show that there are numerous pathways for the oxidation of reduced pyridine nucleotides
Beyond Questions and Answers: Prompting Reflections and Deepening Understandings of Mathematics Using Multiple-Entry Logs
No full textThere is little discussion in mathematics education about methods of effective tutoring; in particular, in so-called office hour or tutorial sessions. Nevertheless, these sessions are as much occasions for interactive instruction as classrooms are, and deserve theoretical and pedagogical attention. By initiating discussion in this area we invite others to contribute critically to these beginnings. Clearly, discussions in this area will inform and be informed by classroom interactions. For this reason, though we focus on office-hour or tutorial interactions, we do indicate how the pedagogical tool we describe informs classroom practice
Gauging the market and non-market forces in Indian aquaculture industry for a strategic position in fish vaccines market
No full textIndian aquaculture segment has become a growth engine for the agriculture sector and is postulated to be one of the
key sources of food-protein supporting the growing Indian population. Significant potential for new fish vaccine
business was demonstrated previously using market and sales potential assessments; however, in addition to the
overall market attractiveness, estimating the market and non-market forces in an industry is vital to ensure
profitability in a new business. Therefore, this research directed attention to gauging the forces using Porter’s five
market forces (2008) and Prasad’s (2011) non-market forces (national culture and history) framework together with
measuring the benefits of complementors. Each of the forces was measured and key drivers within each force were
identified. A base case revenue scenario was built on forecasts and the impact of the major forces was tied to the
income statement to determine sensitivity of the revenue forecasts. The results suggest that the buyer power and the
substitute power are the major competitive forces. The power of complementor products was also found significant
and an entrant could counter the predicted losses in profitability due to influences of these market and non-market
forces by providing product-product bundles thus reaping considerable improvements in net present value (NPV) and
internal rate of returns (IRR) on investments. The NPV from this analysis thus yielded a range between 7.5 million with an IRR ranging between 29.9% and 35.8% depending on the variables considered in the sensitivity
analysis. Therefore, to realize profit potential and many other advantages, the entrant may choose a strategy of
reaching the customer with a solution

Empati adalah kemampuan seseorang untuk menilai,
membedakan, dan bisa menerima pandangan yang berbeda, yang
mana seorang individu dapat merasakan apa yang dirasakan oleh
orang lain. Empati berkaitan dengan keterlibatan pengasuhan ayah
karena ketika banyaknya peran ayah terlibat dalam pengasuhan maka
itu berdampak terhadap empati sesorang, sama halnya dengan
kematangan emosi pada individu yang memberikan dampak terhadap
empati sehingga semakin tinggi kematangan emosi maka akan
semakin tinggi empati setiap individu.
Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah mahasiswa aktif yang ada
dikota Bandar Lampung dengan rentang usia 18-23 tahun. Sampel
dalam penelitian ini adalah 349 mahasiswa. Teknik pengambilan data
menggunakan non-probability sampling. Instrument dalam penelitian
ini adalah skala empati α = (0.896) dengan jumlah 23 aitem, skala
keterlibatan pengasuhan ayah α = (0.916) dengan jumlah 29 aitem,
dan skala kematangan emosi α = (0.731) dengan jumlah 16 aitem.
Berdasarkan hasil analisis data menggunakan analisis regresi
berganda dengan software SPSS 25.0 for windows, hasil penelitian
menujukkan bahwa variabel bebas keterlibatan pengasuhan ayah dan
kematangan emosi memberikan sumbangan efektif sebesar 21.8%
dang 78.2% dipengaruhi oleh faktor dari luar penelitian. Hasil
penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat hubungan yang signifikan
antara keterlibatan pengasuhan ayah dan kematangan emosi dengan
empati pada generasi Z, terdapat hubungan antara keterlibatan
pengasuhan ayah dengan empati, dan terdapat hubungan antara
kematangan emosi dengan empati.

ABSTRACT
Author :
Andri Mahendra
Empathy is a person's ability to judge, distinguish, and be
able to accept different views, in which an individual can feel what
others feel. Empathy is related to the involvement of fathers in
parenting because when many roles of fathers are involved in
parenting, it has an impact on a person's empathy, as well as
emotional maturity in individuals which has an impact on empathy so
that the higher the emotional maturity, the higher the empathy for
each individual.
The population in this study were active students in the city of
Bandar Lampung with an age range of 18-23 years. The sample in this
research was 349 students. The data collection technique uses non�probability sampling. The instruments in this study were the empathy
scale α = (0.896) with 23 items, the father's parenting involvement
scale α = (0.916) with 29 items, and the emotional maturity scale α =
(0.731) with 16 items.
Based on the results of data analysis using multiple regression
analysis with SPSS 25.0 for Windows software, the research results
show that the independent variables of father's parenting involvement
and emotional maturity provide an effective contribution of 21.8% and
78.2% are influenced by factors outside the research. The results of
the research show that there is a significant relationship between
father's parenting involvement and emotional maturity and empathy in
generation Z, there is a relationship between father's parenting
involvement and empathy, and there is a relationship between
emotional maturity and empathy.

Seaworthiness is the fitness of a ship to encounter the hazards of the sea
with reasonable safety. In order to keep seaworthiness of the vessels it is necessary
need repairing. Repairing on MV. Energy Prosperity is implement of the docking
by workers and ship’s crew. When will implement the docking must be having
thorough preparation and careful considering the specifications of the form of the
ship that is specific and varies per ship..
In carrying out dock must be done correctly so that in practice does not pose
a risk and the cost of that too large. Prior to implementation of the dock should be
made in advance of the specific list, a list of the work that will be carried out by
shipyard’s party. When carrying out docking will be held periodic survey by ship’s
class to check condition of the vesseles and her certificates. In the process of
maintenance on board is currently much less crew responsible regarding the
procedure and the lack of equipment that support on ships. On this basis, obtained
the formulation of the problem, with the name of the importance of docking
implementation to keep seaworthiness of the ship that affect operational activities
while sailing and in a port.
Considering how important the process of docking to keep ship’s
seaworthiness should be implemented in accordance with the procedure. In this
case the author uses fishbone diagram and USG method for addressing issues as
well as to illustrate and describe studied in detail. Based on the results, it can be
concluded that by implementing the docking correctly expected would get optimal
results and can reduce the consequences arising from the ship’s not sea worthy.
The maintenance after docking should also be optimized so that can keep the ship’s
seaworthy, so shipping activities can run smoothly and the company did not suffer
losses due to disruption of operation of a ship. At the end part of the thesis the
author presents conclusions and suggestions.
