Judul: Ekspansi Kueri Menggunakan Kamus Kedokteran pada Sistem Temu Kembali Informasi Berbahasa Indonesia
Abstrak: In information retrieval, a problem that often happens is that users face difficulty in forming queries intended to find relevant information. In addition, different vocabularies are used by authors to write the same topic leading to vocabulary gap. Query expansion is one way to overcome the problem. Query expansion is a process of adding terms or phrases to the original query to improve information retrieval performance. In this study, the term expansion is obtained from the translation of medical dictionary. Furthermore, several expansion terms are selected based on the proximity relationship with the original query. Test results show that the performance of information retrieval with query expansion using a medical dictionary gives an average precision of about 82%, and more than 95% of relevant documents can be retrieved by this system.

Abstrak: The most frequent problem on information retrieval is the users inability in representing information they need, in a query form. Thus, one of the solutions to overcome such situation is by applying query expansion technique. By applying the method, query will be expanded, and the new query produced will be used to do the search task. One of the approaches in determining the term of the expansion is Translation with Bilingualism Dictionary, which works through query translation process using dictionary, and the calculation of weight from each expanded candidate terms. In order to increase the relevance of the search result, this research uses Translation with Bilingualism Dictionary as the method to apply. Acknowledging the influence of the method, the research trial and error through the observation of the eleven recall precision number is applied to the produced retrieval result by using different expansion terms. Based on the observation of the produced precision number, it is identified that the use of Translation method in this research has not been successfull in increasing the relevance of the search results. The more expansion terms used, the smaller the precision number produced.

Judul: Characterizations of low alloy steel sae 4422  plated with chromic acid (Cro3)
Abstrak: Characterizations of low alloy steel SAE 4422 plated with chromic acid (CrOrO3) was use Optical Microscopy (OM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), RD),Energy Dispersive Analysis of X-Ray (EDAX), Hardness Test and Roughness Test. Microstructures analysis exhibits cracks and grain boundaries microcracks as a characteristics of chrome metal found at plating metal. Perlite and Ferrite as grains of steel found at base metal with grain boundaries around it. Phase analysis of plating metal appropriate to chrome metal with lattice constant (a) is 2.559 Å and phase analysis of base metal appropriate to iron ferrite with lattice constant (a) is 3.318 Å. Both plating and base metal have cubic system. Chemical analysis of plating metal at surface section exhibits that cracks area have highest value of carbon element compare with grains and grains boundaries area. While chemical analysis of base metal at cross section exhibits that perlite have highest value of carbon element compare with ferrite and grain boundaries. The hardness value of plating metal at surface section and cross section are 753 and 637 VHN. While, the hardness value of base metal and interface area at cross section are 205 and 373 VHN. The roughness value at measurement points of chrome surface for as received sample are 0.445 μm. Observation used Optical Microscopy and Scanning Electron Microscopy exhibits surface irregularities combine to form surface texture of plating metal at surface section.
