Abstrak: The aim of this research was to observe the effect of vernalization and growth regulator in increasing flowers and true shallot seed yield in lowland and highland. This reaserch was conducted at lowland, Dramaga (250 masl, t=25- 260C, rainfall: 105-548 mm/month, RH:71-87%), and highland, Cipanas (1250 masl, t=20-210C, rainfall 204-479 mm/month, RH:80-87%). Shallot bulb 5-7 g was used as planting material. This research was conducted in two experiments. In the first experimental completely Randomized Block Design with two factors was used. The first factor was vernalisation, i.e.without vernalisation (V0) and vernalisation at 10 0C for thirty five days (V1) s, and the second factor was GA3 concentration, i.e. 0 ppm (G1), 100 ppm (G2), and 200 ppm (G3). In the second experiment, NAA at concentration of 0 (A1), 50 (A2), 100 (A3) and 200 ppm(A4) was used. Before planting, the bulbs was vernalized and submerged in 200 ppm GA3 solution for one hour. NAA is given by spraying to the plants aged 3 and 5 weeks after planting. The result showed that vernalization and GA3 affected flowering and TSS production. In lowland, combination of vernalization and 200 ppm GA3 increased flowering 233 times compared to the control and increased one-half times compared to the vernalization treatment without GA3 and in highland it increased four times compared to the control and one-half times compared to the vernalization without GA3. Combination of vernalization and 200 ppm GA3 resulted in the TSS production 3.93 g/m2 (39.3 kg/ha) in lowland and 4:41 g/m2 (44.1 kg/ha) in highland. Aplication of 200 ppm GA3 without vernalization and combination of vernalization until 200 ppm GA3 produced > 80% germination in lowland and highland. Aplication of 50 ppm NAA increase 24% flowering, 4.80 g or equal to 48.00 kg/ha TSS production with 87% germination. The result also show that vernalization can be substituted by GA3 aplication to enhance flowering and TSS production in highland however in lowland as well as high land area a combination of vernalization and GA3 was the best treatment.

Judul: Penyelesaian Masalah Rotasi Aliran Fluida Kental Von Karman Menggunakan Metode Homotopi
Abstrak: Von Karman equation is an equation that describes fluid viscous flow induced by infinite disk rotation. By assuming steady flow and laminar, viscous incompressible fluid flow is represented in Von Karman equation by an angular velocity and the vertical direction velocity as the independent variables. Von Karman equation is a nonlinear problem that is solved using the homotopy method. The use of homotopy method is done by defining an homotopy function that requires auxiliary parameters to control the convergent region of the solution. The solution is a recursive formula with given initial conditions. Using software based-functional shows that velocity components converge to a value.
