Authors: Salsabila Jasmine Raisya , Atmaji Fransiskus Tatas Dwi , Pramoso Aji
Published: December 2020

Based on the historical damage data that has been obtained from the maintenance department of PT. XYZ, the Shot Blast MACH MWJ 9/10 machine is a machine that has a high degree of damage or unreliability which can cause losses for the company. The resulting loss can be time losses and also cost losses. The purpose of this study is to determine the value of company losses due to machine unreliability using the Cost of Unreliability method and Business Consequence analysis. From the results of COUR calculations, the cost caused by unreliable based on corrective time is IDR 3.299.079.131,24  and based on downtime or the length of time the subsystem stops is IDR 7.220.699.784,37. After COUR calculations, the next step is to make a business consequence. Business consequence is made for the company to use the business risk matrix and the results are all the subsystems, namely in the red category, so companies need to take action to prevent the higher consequences.
Can Methods Do Good?
Authors: Hamilton Lindsay , Linda Tallberg , Huopalainen Astrid
Published: December 2020

In this conversational essay, three scholars working in the field of human—animal studies discuss the multi—species work that is underway in ethnology. Examples of different methodological approaches are highlighted; multispecies ethnography, crystallization, feminist dog-writing and écriture feminine. By reflecting on the value of such techniques, the authors contend that a renewed enthusiasm for methodological innovation can pave the way for more rounded accounts of social life, bringing animals and their agencies into clearer focus as companions, workers and beings in their own right. This is regarded as both an intellectual and ethical pursuit, with methods placed at the heart of the endeavour.
The Implementation of ERM in Non-Life Insurance Companies in Albania
Authors: Tola Armanda
Published: December 2020

Enterprise risk management (ERM) has emerged a significant change starting from the way firms manage their complex portfolio of risks. Particularly, the insurance companies that use ERM have shown propensity of success during their daily operation and have been capable to diminish the collective risk of their output. This study draws attention to the performance, firm value and capital allocation effects of ERM adoption in emerging economies using the case of non- life insurance companies in Albania. The objective of the paper is to examine the effects trigged by ERM implementation on their firm value and the factors that caused it based on a structural and institutional theoretical framework. The sample is the population itself including all the non-life insurance companies which have implemented ERM from 2015 and on.

The methodology includes explanatory field study through semi-structured interviews with the key actors of risk management departments of these companies. This study distinguishes the impact of institutional and managerial pressures in adapting ERM in non-life insurance companies, based on empirical evidence and field study. The aim is to contribute in a better understanding of all the forces driving ERM adoption and implementation and the change in risk management practices and capital allocation within non-life insurance companies in Albania.

The findings identify the nature of internal and external factors which can be useful in creating new policies in relation of improving risk management systems and corporate governance.

Transforming from Refugees to Entrepreneurs in Britain
Authors: Sheikh Osman Omar
Published: December 2020

Recognizing the importance of refugees as potential entrepreneurs was the main reason that impelled the launch of small business start-up programmes. In Britain, The Entrepreneurial Refugee Network (TERN) was the principal institution concerned with refugees as potential entrepreneurs, whereas in Australia, the programme was run by the Ignite Small Business Start-Ups. The research question was based on investigating to what extent the British initiative programmes are immersed in supporting refugees’ transformation into entrepreneurs, and to answer this question the researcher investigated how these programmes provide funds, training, and technical assistance. To place this in context, we compared the case of Britain with what has been achieved in Australia where the first worldwide experimental programme was applied. The aim of this comparison was to draw any lessons learned that could profitability be considered by the British programmes. Data was abstracted from the annual reports, and in addition, interviews conducted with the principals to ask about the size of loans granted, dates of loans, type of projects and the number of loans. It was noticeable that Ignite and TERN took a great interest in training, consulting, and advising their applicants. Both programmes were similar, even in number of beneficiaries. However, in Britain there was more interest in offering loans to potential entrepreneurs, especially the finance offered by the New Enterprise Allowance (NEA). Moreover, some businesses have been distinguished in their achievements, including such well-run successes as Dama Cheese and Fagee Fashion. On the other hand, the Start Up Loan Company offered financing compatible with the principles of Islamic Sharia which encourages more refugees to ask for finance.

Authors: Adara Reza Anggriyashati
Published: December 2020

There is a notion that teachers are one of important factors which motivate students to learn English. The present study aims to investigate students’ motivation in learning English with Native English Speaking Teachers (NEST) and Non-native English Speaking Teachers (NNEST) and whether the students are more motivated to learn English with NEST or NNEST. Furthermore, this study examines students’ preferences regarding NEST and NNEST. To obtain the findings, mixed method research was conducted. A set of questionnaires were distributed to thirty students in a private junior high school in Bekasi, Indonesia whereas semi-structured interviews were conducted to two students of same school. The findings show that teacher is an influential factor that motivates students to learn English. Although the respondents are more motivated to learn English from NEST, they do not have certain preferences regarding NEST and NNEST as both teachers help the respondents to learn English in different ways. The findings reveal that NEST are considered better in vocabulary teaching while NNEST teach grammar better.

Authors: Schmellentin Claudia , Lindauer Thomas
Published: December 2020

Im Artikel wird das Konzept des sog. «sprachbewussten Fachunterrichts» mit Bezug zum schulischen Enkulturationsauftrag vorgestellt und diskutiert. Zudem werden daraus folgende Entwicklungsperspektiven für die Fachdidaktiken zur Diskussion gestellt. Dazu wird zuerst der Diskurs um «language across the curriculum» aus den 1970er-Jahren nachgezeichnet. Ausgehend von der Bedeutung von Sprache fürs Lernen wird die Funktion der schulischen Fächer und der damit verbundenen Fachdidaktiken mit Blick auf einen gemeinsamen Enkulturationsauftrag für den Erwerb der «basalen Kulturwerkzeuge» (Baumert, 2002) diskutiert. Mit Perspektive auf eine spiralcurricular abgestimmte Implementierung des sprachbewussten Fachunterrichts wird der neue Deutschschweizer «Lehrplan 21» kritisch reflektiert. Zum Schluss werden mögliche Implikationen aus dem Konzept für die Weiterentwicklung der Fachdidaktiken zur Diskussion gestellt.

Les évaluations récentes du système éducatif français pointent sa difficulté à faire réussir les élèves issu·e·s des milieux socialement défavorisés. L’objectif de cet article est d’exposer les principes sous-jacents à l’enseignement socioconstructiviste et à l’enseignement explicite afin de comprendre dans quelle mesure leur déclinaison en classe permet la réussite des élèves de l’éducation prioritaire. La mise en miroir de ces deux types d’enseignement implique la comparaison des principes de l’enseignement explicite (acception nord-américaine) et de l’orientation « enseigner plus explicitement » (acception française). Cette comparaison est nécessaire pour aider les enseignant·e·s des REP et REP+ à comprendre et intégrer les gestes professionnels attendus pour une meilleure réussite des élèves. La visée pratique de cet article est d’accompagner les enseignant·e·s à opérer leur choix de stratégies pédagogiques en fonction des besoins de leurs élèves.
Des pratiques langagières favorisant le processus de secondarisation dans le cadre de leçons de géographie au cycle 2
Authors: Pache Alain , Breithaupt Sandrine
Published: December 2020

Ce texte part de l’hypothèse que le concept de secondarisation s’avère particulièrement fécond pour mettre en relation les pratique langagières et la construction de savoirs dans le cadre de leçons de géographie à l’école primaire. à partir d’un dispositif de recherche-formation de type Lesson Study, les auteur·e·s montrent que l’enseignement portant sur la filière de production-consommation se décline différemment au fur et à mesure que les leçons sont répétées. En effet, la tâche centrale se modifie, le registre langagier se précise et le débat prend une place plus importante. Les résultats montrent par ailleurs une dissymétrie entre le travail cognitif des élèves et celui de l’enseignant·e, ce qui rend nécessaire un renforcement de la formation des enseignant·e·s.

Published: December 2020

Objetivo: caracterizar la cadena productiva de guanábana en el municipio de Compostela, Nayarit, México, y describir las áreas de oportunidad y sus riesgos para proponer un orden de intervención de esa cadena productiva que establezca los puntos críticos de control que deben implementarse para impulsar la comercialización de guanábana mexicana en el mercado internacional. Metodología: partiendo de fuentes de información directas e indirectas, se construyó una base metodológica que consta de cinco fases diseñadas para calcular el OI óptimo. Resultados: La Cadena Productiva de Guanábana de Compostela se compone de tres eslabones primarios: producción, procesamiento y comercialización, compuestos por actores que cumplen labores específicas. Se identificaron puntos débiles de alto riesgo, así como los Puntos de Control Críticos en la Cadena Productiva de la Guanábana. En base al análisis de relevancia de cada Punto Crítico de Control se construyó un Orden de Intervención diseñado para configurar a la Cadena Productiva de la Guanábana como una opción de desarrollo regional exitosa. Limitaciones: La información disponible del sistema productivo y poscosecha de la guanábana es relativamente escaza. Generar este tipo de información representa un área de oportunidad que requiere el acercamiento con los actores que conforman la cadena. Conclusiones: La presencia de guanábana de Compostela en mercados internacionales de alto valor se ve limitada por riesgos presentes en su cadena productiva. La naturaleza perecedera del fruto destaca como el riesgo principal, y se agrava por riesgos fitosanitarios, mala coordinación entre eslabones, técnicas de manejo desactualizadas e infraestructura de almacenamiento y transporte deficiente. Se estima que implementar el Orden de Intervención incrementaría las ganancias de la Cadena Productiva de la Guanábana al menos 175% en un corto a mediano plazo.

Authors: Sil'vestrov S.N. , Starovoitov V.G. , Larionov A.V.
Published: December 2020

Subject. The article discusses a new approach to monitoring and supplementing a set of indicators used in the Economic Security Strategy of the Russian Federation.
Objectives. We evaluate the robustness of the indicators using SMART-tools, which help consider whether the indicators are applicable to monitor the attainment of strategic goals of economic security.
Results. We prove it is necessary to alter the existing set of indicators, since some of them are not compliant with SMART criteria. For instance, it is reasonable to add indicators measuring the attainment of the goal, such as Strengthening the Economic Sovereignty of the Russian Federation, and Maintaining the Potential of the National Defense and Industrial Complex to Ensure the Military-Economic Basis of the National Defense.
Conclusions and Relevance. We confirm it is necessary to develop new approaches to setting indicators to monitor the implementation of the economic security strategy. Indicators should be further determined and specified, with their target values being assessed. Thus, it is reasonable to refer to expert assessments and various statistical methods (for example, the assessment of correlations). The Economic Security Strategy should specify desired target indicators. The findings can be used to unfold approaches to strategic planning in economic security. The study provides a practical solution to determine the balanced set of indicators to measure the attainment of economic security goals.

Utilization of solar cells can be used as a source of residential energy as a backup power source other than relying on supplies from PLN. In previous studies have not developed a system that monitors the power obtained from the utilization of solar cells. As a power monitoring tool a microcontroller and Internet-based (IOT) device is needed to provide information on the availability of backup power in the installation of solar power plants in homes. In this research, a PLTS design that is equipped with an IOT-based power monitoring system uses Arduino Uno and Thinkspeak. The results of the design can be applied to real conditions for the installation of solar power plants for residential homes.
Manyetokalorik etki gösteren La0.67Ba0.33MnO3 perovskit manganit bileşiğinin manyetik soğutma teknolojisinde kullanılabilirliğinin incelenmesi
Authors: SAMANCIOĞLU Yusuf
Published: December 2020

Perovskit manganit yapılı bileşikler yüksek manyetokalorik etki (MKE) ve devesa manyetodirenç (DMD) etkileri göstermeleri nedeniyle son yıllarda oldukça yaygın olarak çalışılan malzemelerdir. ABO3 formundaki perovskit manganit bileşikleri, ideal durumda iken antiferromanyetik ve yalıtkan özellik sergilerken, A-bölgesine yapılan +1 ve/veya +2 değerlikli element katkısı ile ferromanyetik ve iletken özellik göstermektedir. Perovskit manganit bileşikler elektriksel ve manyetik özelliklerini katkılamalar ile değiştirilebilir ve yığın olarak kolayca üretilerek şekillendirilebilir olmasının yanında, gösterdikleri yüksek MKE nedeniyle yeni tip soğutucu elemanı olarak manyetik soğutma (MS) sistemlerinde etkin olarak kullanılacak yeni tip malzeme olma özelliği taşımaktadır. Bu çalışmada, alaşımlar yerine daha ucuza mal edilen ve şekillendirilmesi kolay olan perovskit manganit bileşiği ele alınmıştır. İdeal durumdaki LaMnO3 perovskit manganit bileşiğinde La eksiltilerek yerine %33 (1/3) oranında Ba katkılanmıştır. Ba katkılanan La0.67Ba0.33MnO3 bileşiği sol-jel metodu kullanılarak üretilmiş ve yığın olarak elde edilmiştir. Daha sonra örnek 1000oC’de 24 saat ısıl işleme tabi tutulmuş, yapısal ve manyetik özellikleri incelenmiştir. Perovskit manganit bileşiğin X-ışınları kırınım deseni üzerinden yapılan arıtım sonucunda bileşiğin kübik yapıda olduğu tespit edilmiş ve Pm3m uzay grubuna ait olduğu bulunmuştur. SEM analizlerinden tane boyutunun 100-200 nm aralığında değiştiği gözlenmiştir. Sıcaklığa bağlı yapılan mıknatıslanma ölçümlerinden La0.67Ba0.33MnO3 perovskit manganit bileşiğinin Curie geçiş sıcaklık (TC) değeri 341 K, 1 T manyetik alan altında hesaplanan manyetik entropi (-ΔSM) değeri 0.87 Jkg/K ve manyetik soğutucu malzeme olarak kullanılabilirliğini gösteren göreli soğutma gücü (RCP) değeri 38 J/kg olarak hesaplamıştır.
Towards Decolonising Poetry in Education: The ZAPP Project
Authors: Newfield Denise , Byrne Deirdre
Published: December 2020

This article concerns ZAPP (the South African Poetry Project), which is a community of poets, scholars (including the authors), teachers and students, established in 2013 to promote, in educational systems, the work of contemporary South African poets. For the past three years (2017–2019), we have attempted through outreach and research to contribute to decolonising South African education by paying attention to indigenous poetic traditions and practices. Our research has focused on content, pedagogy and institutional practice. The article outlines and attempts to assess three interrelated components of ZAPP’s research into the decolonisation of poetry and education: our research into the transformation of teaching and learning in EFAL (English First Additional Language) poetry classrooms, our ongoing research into what constitutes indigenous South African poetry today, and our research into institutional practices concerning the production and dissemination of knowledge about poetry. We draw on various conceptual frameworks to explore ZAPP’s research, namely, South African poetry scholarship, decolonial theory, theories of indigeneity, theories of multimodality, posthumanism and new materialisms. The article shows both the achievements and challenges of our research efforts in the three areas of content, pedagogy and institutional practice. Its final claim is that these three areas are crucial sites of intervention in attempts at decolonising poetry in existing disciplines in research and education.
Research That Is Real and Utopian: Indigenous Knowledge as a Resource to Revitalise High School Poetry
Authors: Botha Louis , De Villiers Phillippa Yaa , Maungedzo Robert
Published: December 2020

This article presents the reflections of a research team from the ZAPP-IKS project. ZAPP (the South African Poetry Project) undertook a three-year NRF-funded research project titled “Reconceptualising Poetry Education for South African Classrooms through Infusing Indigenous Poetry Texts and Practices”. The research on which we report here was undertaken as part of that project. The team consists of an English teacher, a poet and an academic. Together, they attempted a research intervention at a Johannesburg secondary school. The article presents their reflections on the challenges, successes and potentials of the attempted research intervention, which was intended to energise and inspire the teaching of English poetry by drawing from and developing indigenous knowledges and principles. Presented as a play, a praise poem and a conventional academic analysis by the school-based teacher, the university-based poet, and the university-based academic, respectively, the article offers diverse analyses as an illustration of how research relationships may be understood, experienced and represented in various ways. These analyses draw implicitly and explicitly on conceptualisations of indigeneity and indigenous knowledges, as well as decoloniality, with the conventional academic analysis making use of Erik Olin Wright’s concept of real utopias to frame its understanding of the project and the other two perspectives on it. Together they invite readers to challenge and transform the conventions that govern educational practices, research and representation, but caution against naïve idealism when doing so.
Transforming Data into Poems: Poetic Inquiry Practices for Social and Human Sciences
Authors: Van Rooyen Heidi , D'Abdon Raphael
Published: December 2020

This article argues that poetry is an act of meditation, improvisation and exploration, and urgency is what guides the writer into (and through) the poetic journey. In the light of this, this article illustrates the features of a workshop that was designed to guide social and human scientists in the delicate process of turning raw data into poems. One of the chief objectives of the decolonial project is to bridge the gap between Westernised academia (“The Ivory Tower”) and communities where research is conducted, and this article aims to show how poetic inquiry is a fitting research methodology that can serve this purpose. Through a description of the workshop process and specific poems that emerged from it, it suggests that poetic inquiry is an innovative and effective research methodology for social and human scientists engaged in the transformation of conventional knowledge production.
Mapping Pathways for an Indigenous Poetry Pedagogy: Performance, Emergence and Decolonisation
Authors: Mavhiza Grace , Prozesky Maria
Published: December 2020

Poetry is notoriously unpopular in high school English classrooms all over the world, and English FAL (First Additional Language) classrooms in South Africa are no exception. We report on a pedagogical intervention with Grade 11 learners in a township school in Johannesburg, where the classroom was opened to indigenous poetry and identities by allowing learners to write and perform their own poetry in any language and on any topic. Rejecting essentialist notions of indigeneity as defined by bloodline or “race”, we work with a notion of indigenous identity as fluid and performative, and as inescapably entwined with coloniality. We argue that indigenous poetry, meanings and identities were emergent in the open space created by the intervention. To further explore this emergence, we discuss pedagogy itself as performative, an interaction between teacher and learners in which knowledge is built, stories told and identities sedimented. We focus on what can be learned about possible pedagogical pathways for an indigenous poetry pedagogy from the learners’ performances. We identify the constraints and potentialities for a decolonial pedagogy that arise when the classroom is opened to indigenous poetry, and ideas for what such a decolonial pedagogy would look like. The findings suggest that new ways of thinking about the ethics and politics of poetry in the classroom are required, some general to all indigenous pedagogies, and some specific to local South African traditions of praise poetry.

Suitability of common single circuit boards for sensing and actuating in smart textiles
Authors: Ehrmann Guido , Ehrmann Andrea
Published: December 2020

Single-board computers and microcontrollers such as Raspberry Pi or Arduino are nowadays used in a broad range of applications. Their relatively low power consumption and low price, compact dimensions and relative ease to program them make them suitable for diverse areas of measuring and controlling various parameters. In the textile area, however, such single-board computers are still less often used than in other projects, in spite of their aforementioned advantages in comparison to other solutions. Here we give an overview of the differences between single-board computers and single-board microcontrollers in general, compare different versions and give examples which projects are reported in the scientific literature, in design or in the maker scene, enabling researchers, designers and makers to decide which future projects necessitate which single circuit boards.

Standardization of CPUE for walleye pollock in the Okhotsk Sea with inclusion of some environmental factors
Authors: Kulik V. V. , Varkentin A. I. , Ilyin O. I.
Published: December 2020

Catch of walleye pollock by Russia is the highest in the northern Okhotsk Sea where on average 0.94 million metric tons were caught annually in the period between 1962 and 2017, or around 24 % of the total yield of Russian fishery. The total stock and spawning stock of pollock grow there since 2002, though the catch per unit effort (CPUE) has significantly decreased in the beginning of 2018 despite expected high levels of both total and spawning stocks. The sea surface temperature, ice cover and storms frequency were examined as possible reasons of low fishing efficiency in 2018. For this purpose, the generalized linear models (GLM) and generalized additive models (GAM) of catch dynamics are compared. GAM with addition of temperature and storms factors has the lowest Schwarz’s Bayesian criterion and the highest explained deviance (61.6 %). Efficiency of fishing gears has nonlinear relationship with the towing time. CPUE has hypersensitivity to the stock biomass presented as the power dependence (γ = 0.94, r = 0.923). Standardized CPUE is recommended for using in the final GAM for the pollock stock assessment in the northern Okhotsk Sea, hypersensitivity of CPUE should be estimated and corrected if necessary.
On reproductive biology of tanner crab Chionoecetes bairdi Rathbun, 1924 (Crustacea, Decapoda) females at southeastern Kamchatka

Fecundity and some other reproductive characteristics of tanner crab Chionoecetes bairdi females are studied for the first time in the area at southeastern Kamchatka on the materials collected in spring and summer aboard research vessels (in 2016 and 2019) and fishing boats (in 2020). The females with new eggs prevailed in the catches. The size of functional sexual maturity was determined as 79 mm. The implemented fertility was estimated as 93.4 ± 28.1.103 eggs in 2016 and 115.7 ± 24.5.103 eggs in 2019, on average. Reproductive effort and K/r-coefficient were evaluated; their relatively high values confirmed r-strategy of tanner crab reproduction.
Drug Repurposing for Coronavirus (COVID-19): In Silico Screening of Known Drugs Against the SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein Bound to Angiotensin Converting Enzyme 2 (ACE2) (6M0J)
Authors: Kalamatianos Konstantinos
Published: December 2020

E2/21-12-2020

In this study FDA approved HCV antiviral drugs and their structural analogues – several of them in clinical trials - were tested for their inhibitory properties towards the SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein bound to angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) (6M0J) using a virtual screening approach and computational chemistry methods. The most stable structures and the correspond-ing binding affinities of thirteen such antiretroviral com-pounds were obtained. Frontier molecular orbital theory, global reactivity descriptors, molecular docking calculations and electrostatic potential (ESP) analysis were used to hypothesize the bioactivity of these drugs against 6M0J. It is found that increased affinity for the protein is shown by inhibitors with large compound volume, relatively higher electrophilicity index, aromatic rings and heteroatoms that participate in hydrogen bonding. Amongst the drugs tested, four compounds 10-13 showed excellent results – binding affinities -11.2 to -11.5 kcal.mol-1. These four top scoring compounds may act as lead compounds for further experimental validation, clinical trials and even for the development of more potent antiviral agents against the SARS-CoV-2.

The mapping of chemical space by the enumeration of graphs generates an infinite number of molecules, yet the experimental exploration of known chemical space shows that it appears to become sparser as the molecular weight of the compounds increases. What is needed is a way to explore chemical space that exploits the information encoded in known molecules to give access to unknown chemical space by building on the common conserved structures found in related families of molecules. Molecular assembly theory provides an approach to explore and compare the intrinsic complexity of molecules by the minimum number of steps needed to build up the target graphs, and here we show this can be applied to networks of molecules to explore the assembly properties of common motifs, rather than just focusing on molecules in isolation. This means molecular assembly theory can be used to define a tree of assembly spaces, allowing us to explore the accessible molecules connected to the tree, rather than the entire space of possible molecules. This approach provides a way to map the relationship between the molecules and their common fragments and thus measures the distribution of structural information collectively embedded in the molecules. We apply this approach to prebiotic chemistry, specifically the construction of RNA, and a family of opiates and plasticizers, as well as to gene sequences. This analysis allows us to quantify the amount of external information needed to assemble the tree and identify and predict new components in this family of molecules, based on the contingent information in the assembly spaces.
KONFLIK IDENTITAS PEREMPUAN DALAM TIGA CERPEN KALIMANTAN TIMUR TAHUN 1980-AN
Authors: Kurniawati Diyan
Published: December 2020

Abstrak: Tulisan ini menampilkan posisi tokoh perempuan pada tiga cerpen karya pengarang Kalimantan Timur pada tahun 1980-an. Ketiga cerpen tersebut berjudul ”Perkawinan”, ”Buah Hati”, dan ”Luka Cinta” . Pada cerpen-cerpen tersebut posisi perempuan berada di tengah-tengah budaya patriarki. Kondisi itu menyebabkan perempuan mengadakan perlawanan dengan pola berbeda-beda. Perlawanan perempuan menimbulkan konflik identitas pada perempuan. Dengan teori feminisme, penelitian ini menganalisis sebab dan akibat tokoh perempuan mengalami konflik identitas.  Bentuk-bentuk konflik identitas yang dialami tokoh perempuan juga akan dianalisis. Relasi tokoh perempuan dengan tokoh-tokoh lain dengan demikian juga akan dianalisis lebih lanjut. Tokoh-tokoh tersebut meliputi tokoh-tokoh yang menjadi ikon patriarki dan tokoh-tokoh yang mendukung tokoh perempuan untuk melakukan perlawanan.  Analisis menunjukkan konflik identitas yang terjadi pada perempuan disebabkan patriarki yang secara terus menerus melakukan upaya agar perempuan merasa melakukan kesalahan apabila perlawanan tersebut berhasil. Analisis juga menunjukkan kondisi tersebut disebabkan pula oleh tidak kuatnya pertahanan perempuan untuk memilih identitasnya. Cerpen-cerpen Kalimantan Timur tahun 1980-an menunjukkan pergulatan perempuan dalam memilih identitasnya. Kata kunci: perempuan, identitas, patriarki Abstract:This paper presents the position of female characters in three East Kalimantan short stories   in the 1980s. The three short stories are "Marriage", "Baby", and "Luka Cinta". In these short stories, women are in patriarchal culture. This condition makes women deal with their condition differently. Women’s resistance creates identity conflicts. Using the theory of feminism, this study analyzes the the forms, causes, and effects of the conflicts and also  the connection between female character and the others, including patriarchal icons and others who support women to fight back. The analysis shows that identity conflicts are caused by patriarchy that continuously make women feel wrong if their struggle is successful and also caused by women's lack of strength in their struggling to choose their identity. East Kalimantan short stories in 1980s show women’s struggle in choosing their identity. Keywords: women, identity, patriarchy
The Use of Humor as a Pragmatic Device in Indonesian Studium Generale Lectures

Published: December 2020

This paper concerns the use of humor as a pragmatic device in academic discourse. The previous studies in this area has shown that, though unlikely, humor is commonly used in academic discourse—both that of written and spoken nature. Among many aspects analyzed in the studies of academic discourse, some are related to academic cultures. With a deliberate consideration of this existing body of literature, this research aims to contribute in area by examining the use of humor in a specific academic environment, Indonesia. The data analyzed are selected transcripts from chosen YouTube videos of studium generale lectures by three Indonesian political figures. The usage of humor will be identified and analyzed pragmatically, and further classified on a table based on the classification of humor by Martin, Puhlik-Doris, Larsen, Grey Weir (2003). The findings of this study show that in Indonesian studium generale lectures, all four types of humor in the theory occurred, and the most frequently used type of humor is aggressive humor, to which offensive jokes belong.

A power transformer is electrical power equipment that works to transmit power or electrical power from high voltage to low voltage or on the contrary. In the operation of distributing electricity, the transformer can be said to be the heart of transmission and distribution. In this condition, a transformer is expected to operate optimally according to its function.. If the isolation state of the transformer deteriorates, it can have an impact on operating failure and the most fatal of which is that the transformer is damaged which can cause disturbances in the electrical system. To overcome this, it is necessary to analyze the isolation resistance.

This study analyzes the isolation resistance on a transformer using the polarization index, tangent delta and oil breakdown voltage methods to determine the quality of the isolation on the transformer. This study took data at the 150 Kv substation Tegal. The data used include polarization index test data, tangent delta data, bottom oil breakdown voltage test data, and OLTC oil. After the data is obtained, then calculations and analyzes are carried out to obtain accurate results.

The test results at the 150 Kv substation Tegal showed the polarization index value with the lowest IP of 1.26 in the primary-ground section and the highest IP of 1.97 in the primary-secondary section is still in good condition. The results of the tangent delta test are still in good condition, only in the CHT mode experienced a negative delta tan deterioration of 0.07%. The result of the average oil test is still suitable for use with 69.9 Kv of bottom oil and 53.3 Kv of OLTC oil.
