2D Hydrodinamic Modelling of Flood Inundation Scenarios of Krueng Peuto River at North Aceh Regency of Aceh Province
Krueng Peuto sub-watershed, is a part of the Krueng Keureuto watershed in North Aceh that frequently experiences flooding. At the end of 2021, an embankment broke on the Peuto River and caused river overflow and submerged hundreds of houses in 33 villages around the sub-watershed. This study aims to analyze the critical circumstance of the Krueng Peuto sub-watershed which potentially lead to Peuto River overflow, using a 2D hydrodynamic model Geo-HECRAS. The validation of flood distribution points is based on historical floods conditions, i.e. depth and area of flood inundation, with modeling results for return periods scenarios of 2, 5, 10, 25, 50, and 100 years. From the modelling results, the flood inundation area at the 25-year return period was 25.514 km2, with a flood depth of 0-1 m covering an area of 8.35 km2 (32.73%), a depth of 1-2 m covering an area of 6.71 km2 (26.33%), and a depth of >2 m covering an area of 10.44 km2 (40.95%). The validation results of the 25-year return period flood inundation with flood distribution points show that in the flood inundation area there are 17 flood distribution points or the flood inundation area already represents 81% of flood distribution points
Convective forces in high precision mass measurements
This paper deals with a numerical simulation of the natural convection air flow and its influence on apparent mass in high precision mass measurements. Results are in reasonable agreement with the experimental values obtained on a 1 kg silicon sphere and a 1 kg mass standard. There is clear evidence that the three-dimensional finite element model studied, allowing inclusions of the boundary and initial conditions determined experimentally, captures the most important features of convection and estimates the relevant corrections
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
