Judul: Perilaku Sosial Macaca tonkeana di Pusat Primata Schmutzer (PPS) Taman Margasatwa Ragunan, Jakarta
Abstrak: Macaca tonkeana or boti is black monkeys inhabit in the central part of the island of Sulawesi, Indonesia, in the districts of Uru, Palopo, Tonkean, Labua Sore, and Parigi. Macaca tonkeana are social animals living in groups. In a group, each individual will interact with others. Social interaction between individuals include grooming, agonistic, playing, and sexual behaviors. Behavioral observation was conducted starting at 08:00 am to 03:30 pm. Ad Libitum sampling and Focal animal sampling were used for daily behavior and social behavior observation respectively. Daily behavior most frequently performed was locomotion and feeding. Agonistic behavior was mostly done by adult females toward people with the percentage 69,2%. Grooming behavior was mostly carried out by adult female toward juvenile female with the percentage 88,9%. On sexual behavior, females are not only accepted but also refused copulation by a percentage 37,5%. Playing behavior was mostly made by juvenile in the form of biting, rolling and wrestling. In the game also found sexual learning.

Judul: Perilaku Seksual Monyet Ekor Panjang (Macaca fascicularis Raffles 1821) di Penangkaran Semi Alami Pulau Tinjil, Kabupaten Pandeglang, Provinsi Banten
Abstrak: Long-tailed macaque (Macaca fascicularis Raffles 1821) is one of primate species that has not been protected in Indonesia. The wild caught tended to exceed the wild capture quotas that have been set by the government (Rameiyanti & Purnama 2008). This wild capture can reduce the sustainability of this species, so it should be an effort to prevent extinction by conservation effort such as establishing a captive breeding. One of the most important aspect to the succees of captive breeding is animal reproduction, especially sexual behavior. By knowing the sexual behavior of the macaque, it can be known about the appropriate form of management in order to produce a suitable animal production. The objectives of this study were to determine sexual behavior of the long-tailed macaque in Semi Natural Habitat Breeding of Tinjil Island (SNHBTI) and the influences of sexual behavior to daily behavior of long-tailed macaque. This research was conducted in SNHPTI, Pandeglang, Banten from June to August 2009. The study started on 5 to 10 May 2009 to determine location during preliminary observations by establishing the line transect method. Behavioral data was recorded using behavior sampling method during their active time at 06.00-10.00 WIB and 14.00-18.00 WIB. There was 29 group of the macaques in SNHBTI but only group 3 was observe for this study. The sample unit consist of 5 males and 4 females. The result shows that long-tailed macaques in group 3 spent 20% of their active time to eat, 3,9% drinking, 39,6% moving, 21,4% resting, 3,7% grooming, 4,6% agonistic and 6,8% for sexual activity. Sexual activity is frequently done in the morning. This activity also frequently taken place on the trees. The position of the monkey in the social hierarchy positively correlated with the frequency of male sexual behavior and negatively correlated with the frequency of female sexual behavior. There are types of sexual behavior in long-tailed macaque. The highest frequency was approach-genital inspection. Sexual behavior in males have positively correlated with eating, moving, and resting behavior, and also have a significant influence on eating and moving behavior. Sexual behavior at non-pregnant females have negatively correlated and give significant influences to eating behavior. Sexual behavior at pregnant female has negatively correlated with eating behavior, positively correlated and give significant influences to resting behavior.

Judul: Penggunaan Metode Homotopi untuk Menyelesaikan Persamaan KdV (Korteweg-de Vries)
Abstrak: Natural phenomena can be explained using nonlinear mathematical models. In this paper, we studied the solution of KdV equation using the Homotopy method. The KdV equation is used for describing both surface and internal waves. One of the solutions is called a solitary wave. The use of homotopy method to solve the KdV equation required a nonlinear operator which was determined by the nonlinear form of the KdV equation itself. Based on this operator, a recursive formula was obtained to get a sequence of the KdV solution. The higher the sequence order of the sequence used, the closer to the exact solution of the KdV equation.
