METODE PENGUKURAN PROBABILITAS KEBANGKRUTAN BANK DAN ANALISIS HUBUNGANNYA DENGAN DIVERSIFIKASI SUMBER PENDAPATAN: KASUS PERBANKAN INDONESIA
Authors: Wibowo Buddi
Published: February 2018

Abstrak Metode pengukuran probabilita kebangkrutan bank adalah masalah riset klasik. Metode pengukuran menggunakan analisis diskriminan dan model logit seperti  Altman’s Z score dan Model Ohlson tidak memiliki dasar teoretik keuangan yang memadai karena variable-variabel yang ada di dalam model dipilih secara arbitrer dan sangat tergantung pada data yang digunakan utuk mengestimasinya. Model Merton adalah model pengukuran probabilita default yang diakui secara luas sebagai model yang memiliki dasar teroretik yang kuat namun memiliki masalah tersendiri pada implementasinya karena variabel yang digunakannya bersifat unobservable. Probabilita default sendiri dipengaruhi oleh tingkat diversifikasi pendapatan bank. Beberapa riset menghasilkan kesimpulan yang bertentangan. Pada perbankan Indonesia hubungan antara kedua variable tersebut bersifat kuadaratik (U shape) dimana diversifikasi yang natural awalnya dapat menurunkan probabilita default bank, namun sampai suatu titik diversifikasi yang terlampau tinggi justru mendorong probabilita default menjadi naik.   Kata Kunci: Bank, Risiko, Probabilitas Kebangkrutan, Diversifikasi, Abstract Bank’s probability of default measurement method is one of the classic research problem. The measurement methods using discriminant analysis and logit models such as Altman's Z score and Ohlson Model do not have adequate financial theoretical foundation because  variables in the models are chosen arbitrarily and depend heavily on the data used in estimation. Merton’s model of default probability is a measurement model that is widely recognized as a model that has a strong theoretical basis but has its own problems in its implementation because it uses unobservable variables. Default probability itself is influenced by the level of income  diversification. Some research resulted in conflicting conclusions. We show that in Indonesian banking industry, relationship between these two variables are quadratic (U shape) which show  natural diversification can reduce the bank’s probability of default, until reach a infelction point that  too high diversification would encourage the probability of default to be increased Key word: Bank, Risk, Probability of Default, Diversification
La Geografía y su enseñanza en el ámbito escolar
Authors: Naranjo Villa Laura , Aguirre Marco Antonio , Muñoz Escobar Jeniffer
Published: February 2018

Actualmente, la enseñanza de la geografía escolar en Colombia ha venido presentando una serie de vacíos que permiten establecer fracturas o dicotomías entre la geografía de carrera, propia del ámbito universitario, con respeto a la geografía escolar y su enseñanza. En ese contexto, algunos académicos han identificado tales falencias asociadas, primero, al tipo de formación profesional que reciben los docentes, segundo, que los encargados de elaborar mallas curriculares consideran poco relevante las temáticas de geografía, y tercero, la débil cohesión entre campos de investigación, la geografía escolar y la geografía académica. En este sentido, este artículo pretende mostrar la disyunción entre la enseñanza de la geografía escolar y la geografía de carrera, a partir de una revisión bibliográfica a nivel nacional validado a través de trabajo en campo realizado con seis docentes encargados del área de ciencias sociales de tres instituciones educativas de la ciudad de Santiago de Cali a quienes se entrevistó con el fin de conocer los conceptos desarrollan en clase, sus metodologías y dificultades a la hora de enseñar geografía. Este trabajo permitió no sólo identificar vacíos, además de establecer posibilidades metodológicas para interrelacionar la geografía universitaria con la geografía escolar.

Security in the data link layer of the OSI model on LANs wired Cisco
Authors: Moreira Santos María Genoveva , Alcívar Marcillo Pedro Antonio
Published: February 2018

There are no technologies or protocols completely secure in network infrastructures, for this reason, this document aims to demonstrate the importance of configuring security options on network equipments. On this occasion we will focus on the data link layer of the OSI model, which is where controls have begun to be implemented at level of protocols. The tools that are used in the research facilitate the implementation of a virtual laboratory, which consists of a base operating system (windows) in which virtualbox is installed to mount linux mint, which will generate attacks; while in VMware, we installed a virtual machine that allows you to add the image of a switch to our network simulation software (GNS3), which integrates all the components. The tests were able to identify the vulnerabilities in MAC, ARP, VLAN and STP, and then to proceed to patch these security aws. Keeping the setting by default or ignoring the characteristics of network equipment are usually the reasons why these vulnerabilities exist. Finally, it was proved how easy it can be to run an attack and at the same time to implement security measures on the layer 2 of the OSI.

THERMAL CHARACTERISTICS OF PHASE CHANGE MATERIAL USED AS THERMAL STORAGE SYSTEM BY USING SOLAR ENERGY
Authors: Nasir Kadhim , Ali Munir , AL Mamoori Ameer
Published: February 2018

In this paper, the melting processes of phase change material in a shell and tube heat exchanger by using solar thermal energy have been investigated numerically and experimentally. All experimental were outdoor tested at AL-Mussaib city-Babylon-Iraq (Lat 32.5 º North, and long 44.3 º East) with N-S collector direction at tilt angle of 32.5 º with the horizontal. The phase change material used in this work is black color Iraqi origin pure Paraffin with amount of 12 kg. In the experimental setup evacuted tube solar collector is employed for melting phase change material in shell regime. Different volume flow rates for the water flow inside the inner tube of heat exchanger namely (200, 300, and 500 LPH) for Reynolds number namely (15000, 23000, 38000) respectively were used for each season from August 2016 to January 2017. The numerical investigation involves a three dimension numerical solution of model by a commercial package ANSYS FLUENT 15.0. The boundary conditions of the model that solved by the numerical solution have been taken from the experimental tests. The experimental results indicated that the inner tube inlet and ambient temperatures has a significant effects on the melting process compared with the volume flow rates. Studying phase change material temperature distribution, it is exposed that a melting temperature of the phase change material in summer season needed time of (3-4) hours only, while it needed more time; (14-16) hours in winter season. Increasing solar radiation and ambient temperature reduces the melting time of phase change material. Increasing water temperature difference of inner tube increased the heat gained for phase change material. The results obtained from numerical solution presented the static temperature contours and showed that the temperature distribution of phase change material give good validations with experimental results with percentage deviation of 2.7%. The present experimental results have been compared with the previous studies and give a good agreement with increasing for present work of 25.9 %.
IMPROVING THE BIDS EVALUATION CRITERIA AND REDUCING TIME AND EFFORT OF THE ASSESSMENT BY DEVELOPING A SOFTWARE PROGRAM
Authors: Shhatha Muaid , Al Zahid Ali , Ahmed K. Al kulabi Ahmed K. Al kulabi
Published: February 2018

A number of studies have been conducted to specify the most effecting factors on the success of projects. Those studies titled the most influencing factor, which is the bid selection criterion. By this criterion, the most qualified bidder/contractor could be chosen where the contractor has a considerable impact upon projects successes. Moreover, the published studies helped a lot in correcting the improper adopted criterion in selecting the best bid, which is the lowest price bid. Awarding the bid depending on the lowest price bid ended many projects in failure. Therefore, this study aimed to revise the popular mistaken selection criterion, recommend an evaluation criterion, and develop a computer program that works on finding the best bid according to the recommended criterion. The suggested criterion was followed in selecting one of the contractors to construct some projects in Iraq. That projects were felicitously finished; the projects were completed on time and budget.

O Projeto Risos que Curam surgiu como projeto de extensão aca-dêmica a ser desenvolvido com crianças internadas em hospitaisda região da Grande Vitória, no Espírito Santo, Brasil. Durante asações, foram promovidas diversas brincadeiras, peças teatrais,entre outras atividades que objetivam a interação entre os pro-fissionais de saúde, voluntários e pacientes. O entretenimentofoi utilizado com uma forma de proporcionar alegria às crian-ças internadas, uma vez que o isolamento impossibilita, parcialou totalmente, seus momentos de lazer. O fato de poder sorrir etransportar o lúdico faz com que a criança seja estimulada bio-logicamente a desencadear reações que afetam positivamentesua recuperação. Vários países têm adotado o método da “curapelo sorriso”, e estudos mostram que o entretenimento auxilia notratamento dos pacientes, principalmente crianças. Após a reali-zação dos eventos com as crianças internadas, observou-se queo ambiente hospitalar se tornou um espaço mais agradável parao tratamento infantil. Formas de expressões artísticas facilitarama comunicação, possibilitando melhor aceitação da terapia porparte dos pacientes e diminuindo a dor e ansiedade dos familia-res. Por fim, os sorrisos promovidos pela equipe do “Risos queCuram” permitiram uma modalidade complementar de auxílio notratamento dos pacientes infantis hospitalizados.

Vergi Yükü Ekseninde Toplumsal Yapının Gelir Dağılımı ve Yoksullukla İlişkisi
Authors: Ay Hakan , Haydanlı Mehmet Lalif
Published: February 2018

Vergi
yükü kavramı; bir ülkenin gelişmişlik göstergelerinden biri olduğu kadar, kamu
ekonomisinin milli ekonomi içerisindeki payını göstermesi bakımından da
anlamlıdır. Çünkü özelikle gelişmekte olan ülkelerde büyük sermaye gerektiren
altyapı yatırımları, özel tasarrufların istenilen düzeyde olmaması ve buna
paralel seyreden kamu hizmetlerinin niteliği ve ulaşılabilirliği vergi yükü kavramının
önemini ortaya koyan argümanlardır. Bir ülkede vergi yükünün hangi toplum
kesimleri tarafından yüklenildiği, o toplumun vergi yapısı, gelir dağılımı gibi
faktörler, eşitlik ve adalet gibi kavramların ışığında istatistiki verilerle
ortaya konmaya çalışılmaktadır. Yoksulluk ve yoksunluk, sosyal dışlanma gibi
sosyolojik yaklaşımlar, küreselleşme kıskacındaki günümüz bireylerinin sosyal
hak ve özgürlükleri bağlamında modern devletlerin ekonomi politikalarını
etkileyen kavramlar olmuştur. 

                Vergi yapısı bir ülkenin
tasarruf hacmini doğrudan etkilemektedir. Bu durum; ülkenin ekonomik
gelişmişliğini göstermesi bakımından anlamlı sonuçlar ortaya koymaktadır. Bugün
sosyal bir sorun olarak karşımıza çıkan yoksulluk ise, Avrupa kapitalizminin
ortaya çıkışıyla başlamaktadır. Modern yoksulluk; işbölümünün artması ve
istihdamın dengesiz ve düzensiz bir seyir izlemesi, topraktan kopan kırsal
kesim insanının düzensiz şehirleşmeyi artırması ve sosyal ilişkilerin bozulması
yeni bir yoksulluk olarak ortaya çıkmıştır. Aynı durum uluslararası bir sorun
olarak karşımıza çıkan mülteci çıkmazıyla da bağlantılıdır. Bunun neticesinde
ise ülkelerin maliye politikaları ile ekonomiye müdahalede bulunmaları zorunlu hale
gelmiştir.

Introduction: Fever is the most common presenting complain for which children are brought to the paediatrician.Physical methods are widely used in treating febrile children, tepid sponging being commonly practiced in hospitals along with antipyretics. The objectives of this study were to compare the effectiveness of tepid sponging and antipyretic drug versus antipyretic drug alone in febrile children.Material and Methods: This was a Randomized controlled trial done in JSS Medical College and Hospital. All children under the age of 6 months to 12 years, admitted with axillary temperature of >99oF were included in the study. A total of 500 children were included over two years study period. Children with recorded axillary temperature of >990F were randomized into control and study group by computer generated randomisation. Children in the control group received only paracetamol (15mg/kg) at 5 minutes and combined group received paracetamol and tepid sponging at five minutes. Axillary temperature was monitored every 15 minutes for a period of 2 hours in both the groups.Results: There is no significant difference in reduction of temperature between the two groups by the end of two hours. Children in combined group had a higher level of discomfort than those in only antipyretic group.Conclusion: Tepid sponging does not add to the efficacy of paracetamol in antipyresis and that addition of tepid sponging to antipyretic, results in additional discomfort for the child. This study, therefore, endorses the view that antipyretic alone without tepid sponging should be the modality of therapy in children with fever.

Published: February 2018

This paper introduces a brief analysis on hosting capacity and related concepts as applied to distribution network systems. Furthermore, it addresses the applicability of hosting capacity study methodologies to harmonic voltage distortion caused by photovoltaic panels (PV) connected at a low-voltage (LV) side of a university campus grid. The analysis of the penetration of new distributed generation technologies, such as PV panels, in the distribution grid of the campus was carried out via measurement processes, and later by computer simulations analyzing a new concept of the hosting capacity approach in relation to voltage harmonics distortion. The voltage rise due to harmonic injection is analyzed and discussed with the aim of validating the discussed model and also putting forward recommendations for connecting PV generation across other network systems.

Published: February 2018

The electromagnetic transient simulation of a power system with nonlinear characteristics is very time-consuming due to numerous inversion calculations of the admittance matrix. To speed up the simulation of the power system with nonlinear characteristics, a multi-rate and parallel electromagnetic transient simulation method is proposed. Firstly, a Multi-Area Thevenin Equivalents (MATE)-based parallel algorithm considering nonlinear characteristics of the power system is proposed. This method guarantees the admittance matrix is constant by considering changing branches as link current without dividing the subnet again. Secondly, considering the differences of the time constant of the AC/DC subnet, different simulation steps are used for these subnets. The Lagrange interpolation method is used for calculating the Thevenin voltage of the AC subnet in non-synchronous time. Calculation methods of the DC subnet Thevenin voltage is proposed by considering the simulation results during the entire large simulation step. Finally, the simulation process is optimized for improving the simulation efficiency further. The simulation results show that the proposed method could greatly improve the simulation efficiency without losing simulation accuracy too much compared with the traditional method.

Published: February 2018

In order to estimate the diesel particulate filter (DPF) soot load and improve the accuracy of regeneration timing, a novel method based on an equivalent circuit model is proposed based on the electric-fluid analogy. This proposed method can reduce the impact of the engine transient operation on the soot load, accurately calculate the flow resistance, and improve the estimation accuracy of the soot load. Firstly, the least square method is used to identify the flow resistance based on the World Harmonized Transient Cycle (WHTC) test data, and the relationship between flow resistance, exhaust temperature and soot load is established. Secondly, the online estimation of the soot load is achieved by using the dual extended Kalman filter (DEKF). The results show that this method has good convergence and robustness with the maximal absolute error of 0.2 g/L at regeneration timing, which can meet engineering requirements. Additionally, this method can estimate the soot load under engine transient operating conditions and avoids a large number of experimental tests, extensive calibration and the analysis of complex chemical reactions required in traditional methods.

Published: February 2018

Background: Oral clefts (OCs) are common human birth defects. Children with OCs in underdeveloped regions are more likely to suffer from poverty and hardship in their future lives. Here, we attempted to estimate the prevalence of OCs among live births in Gansu Province in 2008 to understand the epidemiologic pattern of the disease. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted from January 2008 to December 2008 in Gansu Province. The live births delivered between January and December 2008 with OCs were investigated through face-to-face questionnaire survey. Results: A total of 468 infants with OCs were identified among 347,137 live births in 2008 in Gansu Province, which yielded a prevalence of 1.35 per 1000 live births. The majority of these cases were CL (cleft lip) (prevalence = 0.85 per 1000 live births), and the prevalence of CLP (cleft lip and palate) and CP (cleft palate) was 0.34 and 0.11 per 1000 live births, respectively. We also found that the prevalence of OCs in Jiayuguan (3.39 per 1000 live births) and Dingxi (2.71 per 1000 live births) was higher than those of other cities in Gansu Province. Additionally, we failed to detect significant correlation between economic conditions of the cities and the prevalence of OCs in our study. Conclusions: The prevalence of OCs among live births in Gansu Province in 2008 was higher than the prevalence of OCs in other provinces in China. The high prevalence may reflect the need for further etiological studies to explore the potential risk factors in this region. In addition, more subtype information needs to be collected in future prevalence studies for better understanding of the epidemiologic pattern of the disease.

Hypertension has become the leading cause of death worldwide; data on hypertension among Nanchang adults are sparse. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence and gender-specific influencing factors of hypertension in adults in Nanchang, China. A cross-sectional survey was conducted with a representative sample of 2722 Chinese residents aged 18 years and above between May and September 2016, with a response rate of 92.4% (2516/2722). A stratified cluster sampling method was adopted in this study. Data on prevalence and influencing factors were obtained from a standard questionnaire and physical measurements. Univariate and multivariate logistic regressions were performed to analyze the influencing factors. The age-standardized prevalence was 19.8% (18.2–21.3) (male: 19.5% (18.0–21.1); female, 20.01% (18.5–21.6)). Factors positively associated with hypertension prevalence were past smoking, diabetes mellitus (DM), and overweight and obesity in both genders. Abdominal obesity and family history of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) were risk factors only in males; sleeping time and consumption of fresh vegetables and fruits were related to the prevalence of hypertension only in females. These findings will form the baseline information for the development of more effective approaches to enhance current prevention and control management of hypertension.

The obesity rate in China has risen significantly in the past few decades. While a number of causes for the rise in obesity have been explored, little attention has been paid to the role of health insurance per se. This study aims to investigate the impact of health insurance on the risk of obesity in rural China using longitudinal data from the China Health and Nutrition Survey (CHNS). We employed pooled ordinary least squares (OLS), probit estimation, and pooled two-stage least squares (2SLS) for an instrumental variable (IV). The IV model revealed that New rural cooperative medical insurance (NRCMS) participation had a significant positive impact on people’s tendency towards unhealthy lifestyles, for instances, high-fat food (8.01% for female and 7.35% for male), cigarette smoking (25% for male), heavy drinking (25% for female), sedentary activity (6.48 h/w for female and 6.48 h/w for male), waist circumference (1.97 cm for female and 1.80 cm for male), body mass index (0.58 kg/m2 for female), which in turn leads to an elevated probability of general obesity (51% for female) and abdominal obesity (24% for female and 20% for male). An “ex ante moral hazard” is prevalent in rural China, which should not be ignored by policymakers so as to minimize the related low efficiency in the process of promoting the universal coverage of insurance.
