Judul: Ecotourism Development Strategy on Unplanned Tourism Business in Tasikmalaya Regency
Abstrak: Pendataan jumlah pasti terkait wisatawan yang berkunjung ke Kabupaten Tasikmalaya belum ada, hal ini dikarenakan banyaknya objek dan potensi wisata. Objek wisata di Kabupaten Tasikmalaya terdaftar di Disparpora Kabupaten Tasikmalaya dan Disparbud Provinsi Jawa Barat. Tapi, terdapat objek maupun potensi wisata yang belum terdata, tumbuh dari wisatawan atau masyarakat lokal yang kemudian disebut unplanned tourism business. Tujuan penelitian secara umum untuk menghasilkan strategi pengembangan unplanned tourism business menjadi suatu bisnis ekowisata yang mapan mapan. Teknik pengumpulan responden menggunakan metode accidental sampling yaitu prosedur penentuan responden (sampel) dari wisatawan yang paling mudah ditemui atau diakses. Responden atau informan dalam penelitian ini antara lain pengelola usaha pariwisata yang tidak terencana, wisatawan, masyarakat lokal, pemerintah daerah, LSM atau komunitas dan pengelola akun media sosial. Data yang terkumpul kemudian dianalisis menggunakan analisis deskriptif dan analisis SWOT yang kemudian dapat menghasilkan strategi untuk mengembangkan unplanned tourism business menjadi ekowisata yang mapan. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian, kondisi kegiatan wisata yang tidak terencana menunjukkan sudah berjalan dengan baik meskipun belum berjalan secara maksimal, sudah diterima oleh wisatawan dan masyarakat lokal. Strategi yang digunakan dalam mengembangkan unplanned tourism business yaitu growth-oriented strategy. Pembinaan yang dilakukan dalam pengembangan usaha pariwisata yang tidak terencana terkait dengan peran stakeholders dengan mengoptimalkan dan mempercepat legalitas unplanned tourism business untuk menjadi sebuah kegiatan ekowisata yang mapan.

Abstrak: Tasikmalaya Regency is a strategic area, are among the popular tourist destinations and frequently visited by domestic and foreign tourist, such as Pangandaran, Garut and Bandung. It is an opportunity for development the natural tourism attraction of Tasikmalaya Regency. The research was carried out in the strategic area of tourism Tasikmalaya Regency during August until September 2012. The tools and materials used, such as stationery, digital cameras, GPS, ArcGis 9.3, Microsoft Office 2007, questionnaire, interview guidelines and analysis of the operating guidelines and objects of natural tourist attraction (ADO-ODTWA) General Directorate of PHKA 2003. The development of tourism based on the assessment ADO-ODTWA, analysis of the visitors wishes and expectations; the readiness to receive visits and thecommunity wishes and expectations; stakeholeder analysis and the strategic plan of natural tourism management. Based on the result of ADO-ODTWA assesment, the depelopment criteria of Galunggung (3325) and Karaha Bodas (2963) are very potential. Sindangkerta Beach (2885), Pamayangsari Beach (1777), Karangtawulan (2750) and Cipatujah Beach (2740) are potential. The visitors wishes and expectations are the repair, maintenance, and the provision of supporting facilities, accessibility, variety of activities, management of services, and management of visitors. The community less welcomed with the tourist visits and the tourism development especially Karah Bodas community (disagree). Wishes and expectations of the community such as increasing well-being, getting the socialization about tourism periodically to change community perception who are not ready, becoming open minded to receive visits. Demonstrated in the implementation of tourist destination, the depelopment organize the consept of religion tourism, appropriate to attitude and culture of the community. The development plan for tourism management are the development of potential tourism, human resources, along protection and resources coservation. The development of natural tourism, such as: (1) the development of a natural tourist attraction destinations by keeping the authenticity and sustainability areas, restrictions on the utilization block appropriate of envinronment resources support, making the evacuation and relocation of areas prone to natural disasters; (2) the development of activities and natural attractions differentiated based on the potencial natural tourism attraction that owned by each objects; (3) the development of facilities are development of interpretation feature and tourism map, information center, homestay, and strengthening of building and infrastructure; (4) accessibility of infrastructure development, a means of transportation, signpost direction, and the promote and information about tourism; (5) the development of human resources should be increases among others, in form of training to improve the ability of service, to be a good host, presenting various form of tourist attraction, foods, and souvenir, and natural disaster response; (6) the development of tourism through a good tourism management, prepared from the regoinal level combine with each tourism location, and build a partnership; (7) the development of tourism marketing and promotion trough electronic media (intenet, website, radio and TV) and print media (leaflet, booklet,and tourism map) periodically held a renewal according to developed by tour packages, and follow and create events that introduce attractions of nature tourism and local culture.

Judul: Characterizations of low alloy steel sae 4422  plated with chromic acid (Cro3)
Abstrak: Characterizations of low alloy steel SAE 4422 plated with chromic acid (CrOrO3) was use Optical Microscopy (OM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), RD),Energy Dispersive Analysis of X-Ray (EDAX), Hardness Test and Roughness Test. Microstructures analysis exhibits cracks and grain boundaries microcracks as a characteristics of chrome metal found at plating metal. Perlite and Ferrite as grains of steel found at base metal with grain boundaries around it. Phase analysis of plating metal appropriate to chrome metal with lattice constant (a) is 2.559 Å and phase analysis of base metal appropriate to iron ferrite with lattice constant (a) is 3.318 Å. Both plating and base metal have cubic system. Chemical analysis of plating metal at surface section exhibits that cracks area have highest value of carbon element compare with grains and grains boundaries area. While chemical analysis of base metal at cross section exhibits that perlite have highest value of carbon element compare with ferrite and grain boundaries. The hardness value of plating metal at surface section and cross section are 753 and 637 VHN. While, the hardness value of base metal and interface area at cross section are 205 and 373 VHN. The roughness value at measurement points of chrome surface for as received sample are 0.445 μm. Observation used Optical Microscopy and Scanning Electron Microscopy exhibits surface irregularities combine to form surface texture of plating metal at surface section.
