Judul: Potensi Pengembangan Sapi Potong di Kabupaten Sijunjung Propinsi Sumatera Barat
Abstrak: Agricultural land in Sijunjung District that has not been optimally utilized could be used for the development of beef cattle farm. The development should conform land suitability as a reference to determine beef cattle development to achieve the government's target of meat self-sufficiency in 2010. This study aims to foresee the potential of land in Sijunjung District for development of beef cattle using a combined 2006 Landsat images, LREP maps and other supporting data through, financial analysis, and the desired rearing cattle the local community. The results indicate that the potential lands for the development were about 120,063 ha or 38.35% of the existing land area, which consists of mixed garden (100,359 ha), 3,247 ha of abandoned land, 11,027 ha of paddy fields and 5,428 ha of bush. Actualy, land carrying capacity is 55,518 Animal Unit, and the potential carrying capacity is 134,722 Animal Unit. The results of the NPV analysis for all farming schemes were positive, with B/C Ratio> 1, and the IRR> outweighed the applicable interest rate. Assessment using AHP showed that the caging system was preferable (0.650) than shepherd-based farming (0.350) with a value of inconsistency about 0.05.

Abstrak: The objective of the research were 1) to identification internal and ekstemal factors which can influences beef cattle farming development in Surade Sub-District, 2) to formulate the strategy of beef cattle development in Surade Sub-District. Primary data obtained by direct interview with the beef cattle farmer, used questionaue as the tool. Secondary data obtained from relevant institutions sources that related with the topic of the research, the data analyzed descriptive quantitative method. The result of feseability study analysis showed Net Present Value (NPV) equal to Rp. 5,670,144,68, Benefit Cost Ratio (BCR) equal to 1.52, Interest Rate Ratio (IRR) equal to 22% and Pay Back Period (PBP) equal to 4 year. The return cost ratio (RiC ratio) of beef cattle farm business analysis, showed that ratio as 1.70 value. It means that the beef cattle farm business were profitable with earning equal to Rp. 2,286,006,94. Base on data feseability study analyzed showed beef cattle development in Surade Sub-District were feseable. Result of analysis of SWOT in the form of strategy S-0 that is cooperation with financial institution to increase working capital, cooperation with government institution to introduce artificial insemination technology. Strategy of W-0 that is re-activated farmer group in marketing beef cattle product, more recruit farmer adviser to increase farmer knowledge in beef cattle farming. Strategy S-T that is to increase farmer knowledge in animal health, to increase animal productivity by applicated advance breeding technology. Strategy W-T that is to increase farmer personal skill in beef cattle farming, it can be implemented by coopemtion between farmer group and government intsitution.

Judul: Hamiltonian formulation for linear waves motion in two layers fluid
Abstrak: The surface wave could be considered as a wave that separates two fluids, namely water and air. Based on this assumption, it is introduced the interfacial wave, a wave between two layers of fluid with different density. The formulation of interfacial waves motion begins with deriving the base equation of irrotational ideal fluid. Furthermore, according to irrotational fluid assumption, the base equation can be stated in velocity potential. In this derivation, the fluids domain is assumed to be restricted by rigid lid boundary conditions, both at the upper and lower limit. Therefore, the interfacial waves motion can be explained in a hamiltonian formulation. In the hamiltonian formulation, total energy is defined as the sum of kinetic and potential energy. The hamiltonian system is obtained from reduction of kinetic energy by using the Dirichlet Neumann Operator. The resulted kinetic energy equation is nonlinear. Therefore, this form is linearized by first part of the Taylor expansion. This linearization gives a dispersion relation of linear wave. Based on this dispersion relation, the phase speed of the linear wave depends on the density ratio of the two layers fluid.
