Judul: Potensi Andalas (Morus macroura Miq.) di Tanah Ulayat Kecamatan X Koto Kabupaten Tanah Datar Sumatera Barat
Abstrak: Andalas is a timber plant that is endemic to the island of Sumatera, West Sumatera Province mascot, but now Andalas plant is hard to find and many people do not know that Andalas is the name of a plant or tree, so Andalas needs to be preserved. Potensial of the plant is not well known, so we need to be aware of the spread of inventory Andalas communal forest. The purpose of this study is to conduct an inventory and mapping of plant Andalas in District X Koto, Tanah Datar, West Sumatera. The results showed that Andalas found in District X Koto much as 266 individuals consisting of 134 at tree level, 49 at the poles, stakes and 64 at level 19 at the seedling. Andalas planting activities undertaken in Nagari Singgalang in 2007 had a very small percentage of success grows from 40.000 seedling planted can grow only as much as 292 or 0,73%. Therefore, to preserve the existing plant is expected Andalas advanced research, so it will obtain more detailed information regarding both existence and cultivation Andalas.

Judul: Inventarisasi Potensi Tumbuhan di Taman Hutan Raya Inten Dewata, Sumedang-Jawa Barat
Abstrak: Grant Forest Park (TAHURA) Inten Dewata has riches of plants as many as 250 species. There are two districts surrounding the area of TAHURA Inten Dewata; Kota Kulon and Pasanggrahaan. Local people in those districts may have interaction with yhe area of TAHURA Inten Dewata, therefore a study of Stocktaking of plant Potential in TAHURA Inten Dewata is badly needed. Stocktaking of plant Potential in TAHURA Inten Dewata was done from May to July 2010. The methods used are field survey with the technique of analysis of vegetation and interviewing by using questionaires as well as herbarium techniques to identify plants. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive statistical techniques including graphical and tabular data. According to the result of analysis vegetation and the interview with the society around the area of TAHURA Inten Dewata, it was found that there were 154 species of plants that belong to 59 families. The total result of plant species based on the analysis of vegetation, it was found that there were 132 species based on the analysis of vegetation belong to 54 families with details specified; 113 species belong to 51 families in Mount Palasari and 27 species belong to 26 families found in Mount Kunci. The society exploits or makes use of 83 species of plants that belong to 35 families in TAHURA Inten Dewata. Species of plants exploited in Mount Palasari are 81 species and 2 species in Mount Kunci. There are 14 groups of usage of plant species which is used to fulfill the daily need. The most usage of plants is for firewood, namely 25 species, whereas the less, 1 species, is for cosmetic. The biggest interaction with TAHURA Inten Dewata of local people is in Gunung Palasari as the access to this area is relatively easier than Gunung Kunci that is boundary with fort. The society around the area make use of plants in TAHURA Inten Dewata. The species that are made use of by local people in TAHURA Inten Dewata such as sugar palm (Arenga Pinnata), coconut (Cocos nucifera), teak (Tectona grandis), bamboo (Gigantochloa apus), and mahagoni (Swietenia mahagoni) that are used for daily need.

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.
