Hubungan Antara Psychological Capital Dan Flow
Get PDFDalam dunia pekerjaan saat ini flow menjadi suatu kondisi yang diperlukan individu untuk menunjang kualitas dari lingkungan pekerjaan di suatu perusahaan. Individu yang mengalami flow akan merasa senang, nyaman dan fokus dalam melakukan kegiatan atau pekerjaannya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menjelaskan hubungan antara psychological capital dan flow.
Subjek penelitian ini adalah karyawan Kantor Akuntan Publik PKF Surabaya yang mencakup posisi kerja Junior, Senior, Supervisor dan Manajer. Subjek penelitian menggunakan seluruh populasi dengan jumlah 55 orang. Pengumpulan data menggunakan angket PCQ-24 untuk variabel psychological capital dan WOLF untuk variabel flow yang hasilnya diuji dengan analisis Spearman’s Correlation.
Hasil pengujian menunjukkan bahwa adanya hubungan antara psychological capital dan flow (r=0,582). Hal ini berarti semakin tinggi tingkat psychological capital yang dimiliki individu maka semakin tinggi pula tingkat flow yang dialami. Hasil pengujian antara aspek psychological capital dan flow juga menunjukkan adanya hubungan dari setiap aspek psychological capital dengan flow. Sumbangan efektif terbesar dari aspek psychological capital terhadap flow adalah resilience (33,8%).
Untuk memperbesar kemungkinan individu untuk mencapai flow, individu perlu meningkatkan resilience dengan cara membangun komunikasi dengan orang lain, menerima perubahan yang terjadi dalam hidup, dan membangun pandangan yang positif terhadap diri sendiri dan orang lain karena hal-hal ini akan mempermudahkan individu untuk menyelesaikan masalah dan bangkit dari kegagalan yang dialami. Ketika individu sudah mampu bangkit dari kegagalan, maka individu tersebut juga akan lebih mudah meningkatkan self-efficacy, hope dan optimism yang menjadi modal psikologis untuk mencapai kondisi flow

The consideration of constrained flow solutions for the purpose of implementing a tidal power plant in the Brouwersdam reconnecting Lake Grevelingen and the North Sea
No full textAfter the construction of the Grevelingendam (1965) and Brouwersdam (1971), the tidal movement in Lake Grevelingen disappeared. This caused a deterioration of ecological parameters influencing the surrounding flora and fauna and consequently a decline of the water quality set in. Amongst others, Rijkswaterstaat and the provinces of Zeeland and South-Holland aim to reconnect Lake Grevelingen with the North Sea to infuse oxygen enriched water into the lake and reintroduce an attenuated tide in the lake, thereby improving the quality of the local ecology. To reach the desired water quality, culverts will be installed in the Brouwersdam, thereby restoring the connection between the two water bodies. As part of an integrated approach, Rijkswaterstaat intends to implement turbines into the culverts to not only generate power, but also perform water management. The conclusion from the literature study is that implementation of constrained flow devices, wherein the entire mass flow is guided through the turbine, is preferred as these turbines are able to modulate discharge through the tidal barrage. Moreover, constrained flow devices have a higher theoretical power output than the other considered hydropower methods applicable in a tidal barrage. In order to broaden the insight into the behaviour of the water level in Lake Grevelingen, due to the construction of the tidal barrage, three hydraulic configurations are evaluated wherein input water level data from the North Sea is used to model the tidal variation in the lake while simultaneously estimating the energy output of the system. Considering a culvert array of 18 culverts, measuring 8 m by 8 m, the first considered case takes into account 11 of the culverts equipped with unidirectional turbines, while the remaining culverts are unequipped. The second case involves all 18 culverts with unidirectional turbines, while the third case is set up with 18 bidirectional devices. Additionally, to provide a larger view on the possibilities, a multivariable analysis of the three cases is carried out wherein power generation and water management requirements are considered. Herein varying the cross-sectional area of the culverts and their numbers, though, for the configuration consisting of equipped and unequipped culverts, also the number of empty culverts is varied. From these analyses, one can conclude that installing unequipped culverts and unidirectional turbines in the array will diminish the controllability, whereas bidirectional turbines increase the controllability of the flow which is desirable. Furthermore, full time turbine modulation, wherein the turbines are not generating the optimal amount of power over the full scope of the tidal range for the purpose of water management is preferred over intermittent turbine modulation, wherein turbine modulation only occurs when the water level surpass certain water levels, because the turbines can be altered continuously, which increases the controllability of the discharge. Nevertheless, for the culvert arrays with bidirectional turbines applies that the required values of the monthly averaged and maximum tidal ranges are insufficient. Even though, the water level in Lake Grevelingen does not exceed the overshoot/undershoot boundaries, established by Rijkswaterstaat, the entire vision of water management is only partially fulfilled due to the lack of amplitude in the tidal range. The study concludes with the selection of the following culvert array existing of 24 culverts measuring 9 m by 9 m executed with bidirectional turbines. From an economic feasibility study, wherein, amongst other involved parameters, an installed capacity of 36 MW, a market price of electricity of € 0.13 per kilowatt hour for the first 15 years and € 0.049 per kilowatt hour for the second 15 years and a loan period of 15 years, follows a payback period of 15 years and a levelised cost of energy value of € 0.058 per kilowatt hour.

The Voice of the Dead: the Author in Post-structuralist Philosophy
No full textŠī darba mērķis ir izvērtēt, kā tēze par autora nāvi, ko savā esejā “Autora nāve” izvirza Rolāns Barts, ir savienojama ar priekšstatu par īpašu stāstījuma balsi (narrative voice), kā arī citiem uz autora klātbūtni norādošiem jēdzieniem, kas izmantoti (post)strukturālisma poētikā un naratoloģijā, kas lielā mērā pamatota uz Barta nostādnēm. Barta tēze paredz, ka autors būtu jāatdala no darba, jo interpretācija ir atkarīga no lasītāja pieredzes un pats autors ir tikai lasītājs, ciktāl viņš nekad neko nerada “no nekā”, bet darbojas rakstības intertekstuālajā laukā. Interpretācijas, tai skaitā darba jēgas ir atkarīgas no šīm interpretācijām, kuras autors nevar iepriekš paredzēt, jo nezina savu lasītāju un tās var būt bezgalīgā daudzumā. Lai sasniegtu darba mērķi, izvirzītie uzdevumi ir (i) izprast autora jēdzienu postrukturālisma filosofijā autora nāves nepieciešamību, (ii) izprast īpašās stāstījuma balss (narrative voice) veidus un līmeņu iedalījumu Ženeta filosofijā, (iii) veikt izvērtējumu par autora nāves un stāstījuma balss savienojamību.The aim of this work is to assess how the thesis about the author's death, which is put forward by Rolan Barthes in his essay “The Death of the Author”, is compatible with the idea of a special narrative voice, as well as other notions of the author's presence used in the (post)structural poetics and naratology which is largely based on the Barthes guidelines. Barthes thesis implies that the author should be separated from the work because the interpretation is dependent on the reader's experience and the author himself is merely a reader, as far as he never creates anything “from nothing” but works in an intertextual field. The interpretation, including the meaning of work, depends on these interpretations, which cannot be predicted by the author because he does not know his reader and which may be infinite. In order to achieve the objective of the work, the objectives set are (i) understand the concept of author in the philosophy of the poetry of the author, (ii) understand the types of special narrative levels in Genette's philosophy, (iii) carry out an assessment of the interconnectivity of the author's death and narration
