POST-SPACE SEBAGAI BENTUK PERLAWANAN IMIGRAN TERHADAP TATANAN KOLONIAL DALAM NOVEL BRICK LANE KARYA MONICA ALI
Brick Lane's is a post-colonial literary work that raises the issues of the Bangladeshi diaspora in England. The raise of diaspora writers who settled in Europe and America has colored modern world literature. The ideas of diaspora writers do not only present works with monolithic ideas, they have also presented various spatial constructions and identities about immigrants living in the Western world. This research was conducted as an effort to answer the formulation of the problem as follows: (1). What is the postcolonial spatial response in Brick Lane Monica Ali's novel? (2). How about urban space construction and postcolonial spatial strategy in the novel Brick Lane? This study uses qualitative research methods to explore how the author constructs postcolonial space and offers post-space in his work. Data was collected inductively through the depiction of characters in the novel and classified for later analysis using Spatial Politics Sara Upstone's theory. The results of this study indicate that the authors attempt to present chaos as a postcolonial spatial response. The chaos presented by the author appears when certain individuals in the novel feel discriminated against in a space with colonial-created boundaries and orders, either because of their identity or social class. The author also constructs city space by offering a strategy displacement in the form of transferring a sense of belonging to the smaller things that construct urban space, and the relationships between figures that make individuals feel comfortable with their existence
Factors in an Effort to Acquire the Efficiency of the Cargo Compartment Design on Tankers
Tankers are one of the popular modes of transportation associated with liquid cargo. Efficiency with respect to the volume of cargo transported by tankers is an essential consideration in the transportation business process, especially fuel oil, which has become a benchmark for the global economy recently. Various studies have been carried out to optimize cargo space. This study aims to define the factors that influence cargo compartment efficiency to increase the effectiveness in the transportation business. In this study, it is known that the transverse bulkhead arrangement affects the payload capacity, which is related to the criteria in the naval architect principle. The hopper design also influences the optimization of cargo volume, which can provide benefits in terms of payload. Excess cargo volume on existing ships due to hopper design optimization, the future ship design can reduce the length of the cargo compartments that still meet the desired payload. Reducing the length of the cargo hold will undoubtedly provide an opportunity to optimize the scantling analysis for longitudinal and transverse ship structures. This study is expected to be a reference and a more detailed discussion regarding the efficiency of cargo space on tankers in the future
