PENINGKATAN KINERJA ALAT UJI KUAT TEKAN BEBAS DARI MANUAL KE MOTOR LISTRIK
The unconfined compression test apparatus is an essential tool in soil mechanics laboratories to evaluate the shear strength of soil. The apparatus at Jakarta State Polytechnic has been in use since 1982 with a manual drive system, which often results in inconsistent strain rates and inaccurate test results. This study aimed to enhance apparatus performance by replacing the manual drive with an electric motor drive system. The modification stages included design, fabrication, and performance testing. The results demonstrated that the modified apparatus maintained a stable strain rate between 0.52% and 1.95% per minute, fully complying with the required standard range of 0.5%–2% per minute. Compared to the manual system, the electric-driven apparatus improved test accuracy by 15%, reduced operator-related deviations by 20%, and increased repeatability by 25%. These findings indicate that the modification not only improved accuracy and efficiency but also ensured compliance with testing standards, making the apparatus more reliable for laboratory applications.Alat uji kuat tekan bebas adalah salah satu peralatan yang digunakan di Laboratorium Uji Tanah Jurusan Teknik Sipil Politeknik Negeri Jakarta. Uji kuat tekan bebas adalah pengujian untuk menghitung kekuatan geser tanah. Uji kuat tekan bebas merupakan salah satu praktikum yang wajib diikuti oleh Mahasiswa Jurusan Teknik Sipil Politeknik Negeri Jakarta dalam mata kuliah praktik uji tanah. Alat uji kuat tekan bebas yang dimiliki Jurusan Teknik Sipil Politeknik Negeri Jakarta sudah ada sejak tahun 1982 dan mesin penggerak pada alat uji kuat tekan bebas masih manual yaitu berupa stang pemutar. Dalam pelaksanaan praktikum uji kuat tekan bebas seringkali saat pemutaran stang tidak konstan yang menyebabkan tidak sesuai dengan standar pemutaran. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan alat kuat tekan bebas dengan cara memodifikasi sistem penggerak manual menjadi motor listrik dan untuk mendapatkan kecepatan pemutaran yang stabil pada alat kuat tekan bebas yaitu kecepatan regangan yang terjadi sebesar 0,5% – 2% per menit. Tahap penelitian dimulai dengan mempersiapkan komponen motor listrik yang digunakan untuk memodifikasi alat kuat tekan bebas, dilanjutkan dengan merancang dan membuat sistem penggerak motor listrik serta dilakukan pengujian dan evaluasi rancangan. Hasil dari penelitian ini adalah berupa alat kuat tekan bebas dengan mesin penggerak motor listri

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
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We 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
We 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
We 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
