    This study analyzes the projection of the School Life Expectancy (HLS) in 33 districts/cities in North Sumatra Province using the ARIMA method. Historical HLS data from 2019 to 2023 were used to forecast the HLS values for 2024 and 2025. The prediction results show an increase in HLS in most regions, with several districts/cities such as Labuhan Batu, Pematangsiantar City, and Padangsidempuan City experiencing significant growth. However, some regions like Mandailing Natal and Samosir show a more stable trend without significant increases. These findings indicate disparities in access and quality of education across various regions in North Sumatra. Overall, the ARIMA model provides a positive forecast for future HLS improvements, though regional disparities require special attention from relevant authorities to promote equal access to education

    Clarification of Ejection and Sweep in Rectangular Channel Turbulent Flow

    The experimental study has been carried out to investigate the behavior of ejection and sweep events in a rectangular channel turbulent flow. The channel is a 1800 mm long vertical channel with a cross sectional area of 100 mm and 20 mm. The events are studied by obtaining velocity components of the flow by using the ultrasonic measurement method (UVP). This paper clarifies the capability of the UVP for investigating the sweep and ejection events.</jats:p

    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

    Experimental &amp; Numerical study on COVID-19 Waste Treatment Using a Gasification Type Incinerator: Laboratory Scale

    Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the use of personal protective equipment in the community has contributed to the increasing amount of medical waste. Medical waste from the COVID-19 pandemic is classified as infectious medical waste which is waste related to patients who need isolation from infectious diseases. one of the solutions offered is a medical waste incinerator. By studying the medical waste incinerator model in the hospital, the researchers finally took the initiative to do a simple incinerator design. the incinerator to be used is updraft gasifier type. It is hoped that the use of this incinerator will be able to solve the existing medical waste problem. In this study, the researchers use experemental approach to get the basic data from the reactor. After gain the data, then the researcher use numerical approach which is using ansys softwere to get a better look of the temperature contour on the rector. From both study, researcher can conclude tha it would take an upgrade on the existing blower to incenerate the medical waste on a safely temperature

    Metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFET) were fabricated using organic semiconductor pentacene. The humidity dependence of drain current gate voltage (ID-VG) characteristic and drain current drain voltage characteristic (ID-VD) will be explained. Firstly, the thermal oxidation method was used to grow SiO2 gate insulator with thickness of 11 nm. Secondly, the thermal evaporation method was used to form Au source and drain electrodes with thickness of 28 nm. The channel width and length of the transistors were 500 and 200 respectively. By the same method, organic semiconductor material pentacene was deposited with thickness of 50 nm at vacuum of 7.8x10-6 Torr. The hole mobility decreased from 0.035 cm2 /(Vs) to 0.006 cm2 /(Vs), while the threshold voltage increased from 0.5 V to 2.5 V and gate leakage current also increased from 5.8x10-10 A to 3.3x10-9 A when the relative humidity increased from 20% to 70%
