Evaluation of turbulence models for the prediction of flow properties in vegetated channels
No full textThe performance of turbulence models was investigated to predict the flow and turbulence features of the vegetated channel using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The Ansys Fluent, CFD software was implemented for the numerical studies. The flow was three-dimensional, incompressible, steady, and turbulent. Ten turbulence models, provided by Ansys Fluent, were implemented for the comparative study. The numerical model was validated against an experimental study conducted in the literature. The numerical studies show that the Renormalization group k-ϵ model is the most successful model for predicting the flow characteristics of the vegetated channel with a Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) value of 0.2752. At the same time, the Reynolds Stress Model gives the least successful predictive performance, indicated by an RMSE value of 0.4302. Moreover, the Spalart-Allmaras (S-A) model offers the shortest computation time with a value of 6652.393 s, whereas the Shear Stress Transport k-ω model proves to be the most time-consuming with a value of 11 952.219 s. The velocity of water flow in a channel is not uniform as it is slower at the surface of leaves and faster in the free zones. The maximum velocity is observed in the middle section of the channel, below the leaf, and between the roots with the value of u = 0.1158 m/s. Furthermore, the characteristics of turbulence in a channel are influenced by several factors such as channel geometry, flow velocity, and vegetation distribution. As a result, the presence of vegetation in a channel affects the flow and turbulence characteristics of the water significantly. © 2024 Author(s)
Indefensible Spaces
No full textIndefensible Spaces examines the policing of housing through the story of Black community building in the Antelope Valley, Los Angeles County’s northernmost outpost. Tracing its evolution from a segregated postwar suburb to a destination for those priced, policed, and evicted out of Los Angeles, Rahim Kurwa tells the story of how the Antelope Valley resisted Black migration through the policing of subsidized housing—and how Black tenants and organizers fought back. This book sheds light on how the nation’s policing and housing crises intersect, offering powerful lessons for achieving housing justice across the country.
“With analytical acumen and literary panache worthy of the late Mike Davis, Rahim Kurwa reveals how housing vouchers promising to liberate impoverished residents from prison‑like projects actually fueled even greater anti‑Black police repression—but like fugitives from the antebellum South, Antelope Valley tenants organized, resisted, and demanded their right to the suburb.” — ROBIN D. G. KELLEY, author of Freedom Dreams: The Black Radical Imagination
“A sociological treat.” — EDUARDO BONILLA‑SILVA, author of Racism without Racists: Color‑Blind Racism and the Persistence of Racial Inequality in America
“Lucid, evocative, and a pleasure to read.” — DAANIKA GORDON, author of Policing the Racial Divide: Urban Growth Politics and the Remaking of Segregation
“Deeply researched and compelling.” — EVA ROSEN, author of The Voucher Promise: “Section 8” and the Fate of an American Neighborhood
“Kurwa’s theoretical contributions will inspire scholarship for many years to come.” — ELIZABETH KORVER‑GLENN, coauthor of A Good Reputation: How Residents Fight for an American Barrio
“Sobering but inspiring, this is ultimately a hopeful text: despite the disadvantages they face, Antelope Valley tenants have come together and set a bold vision for housing justice.” — MONICA BELL, Yale Universit

Shaaban Abdel Rahim and the changing stardom culture in Egypt
No full textThe subject of the study is Shaaban Abdel Rahim, an illiterate former makwagi (man
who irons clothes) who gained pan-Arab fame in 2001 for the song ‘I hate Israel’ and, despite fierce criticism from the national media, has become one of the most recognisable stars of sha’bi music in Egypt. The study aims to answer the question
of the main criterion of Abdel Rahim’s popularity. The initial hypothesis was that the political content of his songs was the most decisive factor in the matter. However, a
more detailed study, based on fieldwork conducted in Egypt in 2012, reveals that his
political commitment is not the key issue. Referring to the theory of social relevance
in popular culture, the author claims that Abdel Rahim’s success is not derived from
the meanings that people read into his songs, but rather from his low origins. The
phenomenon should be considered within the context of a highly class-based society
where Abdel Rahim has become a mouthpiece of the most neglected part of the
Egyptian population deprived of representation in the mainstream media
Beyond the hype: how the Metaverse can revolutionize higher learning in an authentic way / Mia Emily Abdul Rahim and Emma Marini Abdul Rahim
No full textMany of us have heard of the Metaverse, but only a handful have genuinely experienced it. Coined by the famous science fiction author Neal Stephenson, the Metaverse refers to a virtual space where people can interact with each other through their avatars in a 3D environment. This technology has gained popularity in recent years, thanks to augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and extended reality (XR) platforms' development. In the education sector, Metaverse-based applications can be incorporated with face-toface learning, creating a truly authentic English learning environment for learners. English as a second language (ESL) learners can use the Metaverse to practice their language skills in a fun and interactive way

An Analysis of the Effect of Motivation and Social Support Through A Learning Interest on the Performance of Non-Civil Servant Islamic Religious Instructors At Langkat Regency
No full textA relegious instructor holds a position subordinate to the Minister of Religion, and is responsible with mentoring, motivating, and encouraging the community in relegious and social activites. In addition to the civil servant Islamic Religion Instructors, there are also non-civil servant Islamic Religion Instructors who hold the status of honorary employee. It has been observed that the performance of non-civil servant Islamic Religious in Langkat Regency from 2020 to 2022 is not meeting the performance objectives and work expectation. The objective of this study is to examine the effect of motivation and social support on the employee performance through their learning interest. A descriptive quantitative methodology with linear analysis is used to test the study hypotheses. The study finds that both motivation and social support has an effect on the performance as observed through their learning interest. However, social support does not have effect on the employee performance. It is recommended that the Minister of Religion of the Republic of Indonesia in Langkat Regency enhance the learning interest of non-civil servant Islamic Religion Instructors, because it has been proven that the learning process enhances employee performance.105 PagesTesis Magiste
Ruptur Uteri
No full textRuptur uteri adalah robeknya dinding uterus pada saat kehamilan atau persalinan pada saat umur kehamilan lebih dari 28 minggu. Manifestasi perdarahan masih merupakan trias penyebab kematian maternal tertinggi, di samping preeklampsi/eklampsi dan infeksi. Angka kematian ibu akibat perdarahan yang disebabkan ruptur uteri berkisar antara 17,9% sampai 62,6%. Saat persalinan kala I dan awal kala II batas antara segmen bawah rahim dan segmen atas rahim dinamakan lingkaran retraksi fisiologis, jika bagian terbawah tidak mengalami kemajuan akan timbul retraksi patologis (Bandl’s ring). Apabila saat persalinan tetap tidak ada kemajuan maka akan terjadi ruptur uteri dan menyebabkan komplikasi berupa kematian maternal. Simpulan, ruptur uteri masih merupakan salah satu penyebab kematian maternal dan janin dalam rahim paling tinggi di Indonesia. Untuk itu diperlukan ketepatan dalam mendiagnosis terjadinya ruptur uteri dan melakukan penatalaksaaan dengan tepat dan cepat sehingga angka kematian akibat komplikasi persalinan dapat menurun.
