Judul: Pengaruh taraf penggunaan bungkil biji jarak pagar (Jatropha curcas L.) dalam ransum terhadap penampilan reproduksi mencit (Mus musculus)
Abstrak: This experiment was conducted to study the effect of Jatropha curcas L. seed cake at different levels (0, 5, 10 and 15%) in the diet of mice (Mus musculus) on its reproductive performance. The variables observed were feed consumption, litter size a birth and weaning, birth and weaning weight, mortality rate. The result showed that Jatropha curcas L. seed cake levels in ration had no significant effects on feed consmuption. litter size at birth, birth and weaning weight, but produced significant effect (P<0.05) on litter size at weaning and highly significant effects (P<0.01) on mortality rate.

Judul: Bio-assay bungkil biji jarak pagar (Jatropha curcas) terdetoksifikasi menggunakan mencit (Mus musculus) sebagai hewan coba
Abstrak: A research to examine the effect of detoxified Jatropha curcas meal from several origins in mice diets (Mus musculus) had been conducted. The amounts of 144 mice were kept in 48 pens and completely randomized to a 3 x 6 factorial treatments. As factor A was Jatropha meal origins (A1 = Kebumen; A2 = Lampung and A3 = Lombok), while factor B was substitution of 10% soybean oil meal with Jatropha meal after detoxified with various methods (B0 = control diets without Jatropha; B1 = heat treatment of Jatropha + 1% turmeric meal; B2, B3 and B4 = addition of 0.5%, 1% and 1.5% turmeric meal respectively and then followed by heat treatments, B5 = addition 4% NaOH + 10% NaOCl followed by heat treatment. The treatments were repeated three times. Diet and nutrients intake, body weight changed and mortality had been measured. Jatropha of Lampung’s origin was less toxic in compare to Kebumen’s and Lombok’s origin. Jatropha origins and detoxification methods influenced diets intake, mice growth and mortality significantly (p < 0.05). Detoxified of Jatropha’s Lampung-origin with B5 method gave the highest survival rate (100%) of the mice after 28 d of feeding trial. The B5 was the best Jatropha detoxification methods in lowering phorbolester content but the meal still could not be categorized as a safe feed to consume.

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.
