Judul: Penggunaan Metode Analisis Homotopi pada Penyelesaian Persamaan Schrodinger-KdV
Abstrak: Schrodinger-KdV equations are mathematical model that can be applied in determining the maximum height of the bichromatic wave packet wrapper. These equations form nonlinear partial differential equations. Solution of Schrodinger- KdV equations are done by using homotopy analysis method. The use of homotopy analysis method is done by defining a homotopy function. Homotopy function requires auxiliary parameter that can be used to control the convergence area of the solution of Schrodinger-KdV equations. The obtained solution is in the form of recursive formula with given initial approach in the form of hyperbolic function. The use of homotopy analysis method is highly efficient and effective to solve Schrodinger-KdV equations, and the resulting error is very small.

Judul: Penyelesaian masalah gelombang dispersi taklinear dengan menggunakan metode homotopi
Abstrak: Many natural phenomena can be presented in mathematical models, such as the nonlinear Whitham-Broer-Koup (WBK) wave equation. WBK equation describes wave propagation in shallow waters containing dispersion factor. In this paper, WBK equation will be solved by using homotopy method. Homotopy method is an approximated analytical method, which can be used to obtain the solution of nonlinear problems. The results of this study indicate that homotopy method is highly efficient to solve the WBK equation. Errors resulting from this method are very small, so the solution obtained is very close to its exact solution. One special case of WBK equation discussed in this study is Boussinesq equation, which has a wave number of 0.2 and a frequency of 0.04. The wave initially form a single wave, but then it breaks into two waves, each moving in opposite directions at equal speed.

Judul: Prevalence of Bird Lice on Rock Pigeon (Columba livia) in 99Wonderland Park, Selangor, Malaysia
Abstrak: Rock Pigeon (Columba livia) have coexisted with humans for thousands of years and are used for various purposes such as food and in sports. Rock pigeons may have the potential to be infested with a wide range of ectoparasites, which can have a significant impact on their life cycle. This study aims to measure the prevalence of Columba livia with bird lice in 99Wonderland Park, Selangor, Malaysia in the year 2020 and to ascertain the impact of bird lice on the health of these infested birds. Data were collected from clinical records for the month of January to December in the year 2020 from 99Wonderland Park, Selangor, Malaysia. Lice were identified in 42 of the 80 Rock pigeons examined so, the overall prevalence of lice infestations was 52.5%. The prevalence of ectoparasites was found to be higher in young Rock pigeons (60.4%) as compared to adult Rock pigeons (37.4%). Columbicola columbae (wing lice) and Colpocephalum turbinatum (body lice) are two species of lice that have been detected. Body lice were more prevalent in young Columba livia birds at 47.6% whereas wing lice were more prevalent in adult Columba livia birds at 16.7%. Most of the lice were found in the thorax and abdomen area followed by the head and neck area., Merpati Batu (Columba livia) telah hidup berdampingan dengan manusia selama ribuan tahun dan digunakan untuk berbagai keperluan seperti makanan dan olahraga. Merpati batu dapat terinfestasi dengan berbagai ektoparasit, yang dapat berdampak signifikan pada siklus hidup mereka. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui prevalensi Columba livia dengan kutu burung di 99 Wonderland Park, Selangor, Malaysia pada tahun 2020 dan untuk memastikan dampaknya terhadap kesehatan burung yang terinfestasi. Data dikumpulkan dari catatan klinis dari bulan Januari hingga Desember tahun 2020 dari 99Wonderland Park, Selangor, Malaysia. Kutu diidentifikasi pada 42 dari 80 merpati batu yang diperiksa sehingga, prevalensi keseluruhan infestasi kutu adalah 52,5%. Prevalensi ektoparasit ditemukan lebih tinggi pada merpati batu muda (60,4%) dibandingkan dengan merpati batu dewasa (37,4%). Columbicola columbae (kutu sayap) dan Colpocephalum turbinatum (kutu badan) adalah dua spesies kutu yang telah ditemukan. Kutu badan lebih banyak ditemukan pada burung Columba livia muda sebesar 47,6% sedangkan kutu sayap lebih banyak ditemukan pada burung Columba livia dewasa sebesar 16,7%. Sebagian besar kutu ditemukan di daerah dada dan abdomen diikuti daerah kepala dan leher.
