Fear of failure: What drives it in Latin America?
Authors: Mongrut Samuel , Juárez Nidia
Published: September 2020

Objetivo: Identificamos y cuantificamos el impacto de varios factores que afectan la respuesta emocional de los individuos frente al miedo al fracaso dada la situación externa que enfrentan en cinco países latinoamericanos: Brasil, Colombia, Chile, México y Perú. Originalidad: Proponemos un modelo de la experiencia del miedo al fracaso y verificamos una versión reducida del mismo. Asimismo, identificamos las diferencias en los factores entre los diferentes países considerados. Metodología: Utilizamos un modelo logístico de datos de panel no balanceado para Latinoamérica durante los años 2010-2015 y verificamos la robustez de los resultados con un modelo logístico de corte transversal. Resultados: Encontramos que ser mujer y madre soltera aumenta el miedo al fracaso de las personas, mientras que la edad y la educación superior lo reducen. La autopercepción de los individuos reduce su miedo al fracaso en casi un 19\%, lo que implica que una autopercepción positiva los ayudará a superar su respuesta emocional frente al miedo al fracaso. También descubrimos que la red de contactos empresariales de las personas puede mitigar y la experiencia empresarial negativa pasada puede aumentar el miedo al fracaso, pero estos efectos cambian entre los países. Recomendaciones: Para fomentar la respuesta positiva de los empresarios ante el miedo al fracaso, las incubadoras de empresas deben trabajar en sus rasgos personales, especialmente el exceso de confianza. Además, los gobiernos regionales deben tomar medidas para promover una mayor participación femenina y educación empresarial para todos. Limitación: Estamos sujetos a la limitación de la base de datos del GEM en la recopilación de datos. Conclusión: La experiencia de las personas hacia el miedo al fracaso es un proceso que se ve afectado por su género, edad, educación y autopercepción. Además, es un proceso dinámico que se mitiga o amplifica con la red de emprendedores y la experiencia empresarial negativa anterior.
Inclusión financiera y productividad: el caso colombiano
Authors: Gómez Gómez Rafael , Morales Zuluaga Eliana , Castellanos Martínez Juan Felipe
Published: September 2020

El presente trabajo plantea la identificación de los efectos de la inclusión financiera sobre la productividad en el contexto colombiano. Para medir esta incidencia, se utiliza una muestra de datos de tipo panel de la Encuesta Anual Manufacturera. Aplicada a un modelo de regresión de efectos fijos en el cual la variable dependiente corresponde a la productividad a nivel de los establecimientos, en función de un portafolio de productos financieros. Los resultados indican que los esfuerzos de inclusión entendidos como la adopción servicios financieros no se refleja en una mayor productividad. Mostrando así, fallos persistentes, limitantes en el acceso al capital y los factores productivos. Este estudio entonces, abre un importante debate en el caso colombiano y de economías similares, pues diversos estudios sectoriales, esfuerzos gremiales y la política publica, se enfocan en la adopción de un portafolio de productos, instrumentalizando la inclusión sin lograr los beneficios que se pretenden. Finalmente, se concluye de este estudio que el acceso a una diversidad de servicios financieros no garantiza el aumento de la productividad e incluso puede deteriorarla.
Estructura de autoridad y relaciones de género entre los lanoh de la península de Malasia
Authors: Dallos Csilla
Published: September 2020

Este artículo analiza las razones por las cuales la separación entre el dominio público y el privado en una aldea lanoh, de la península de Malasia, cuya población está formada por recolectores que recientemente adoptaron la vida sedentaria, no resultan en las desigualdades de género pronosticadas por el modelo de Rosaldo. La conservación de la autonomía individual entre los lanoh evita que los líderes que compiten por el poder obtengan apoyo de sus parientes masculinos. En consecuencia, su auto-glorificación queda confinada al ámbito de sus hogares. Las desigualdades de género en la aldea sólo se dan en los hogares nucleares de los líderes, como consecuencia del aumento de la producción familiar. Nuestros resultados nos llevan a sostener que las causas de las desigualdades en sociedades de pequeña escala deben ser investigadas tomando en consideración distintos tipos de relaciones, no sólo las que privan entre los hombres y las mujeres.

Plantea preguntas sobre las formas de legitimar la autoridad dentro del creciente movimiento indígena, el papel de las ONG, los investigadores, las burocracias y las corporaciones en este proceso, y los dilemas que surgen de la politización y privatización de la cultura e identidad indígenas.
Una fallida privatización del agua en Bolivia: El estado, la corrupción y el efecto neoliberal
Authors: Sanz Galindo Camilo
Published: September 2020

En 1999, el gobierno boliviano vendió la empresa de agua de Cochabamba a un grupo de inversionistas nacionales y extranjeros. Sólo tres meses después se produjo un levantamiento popular sin precedentes en respuesta a los dramáticos incrementos en las tarifas del servicio, las relaciones íntimas, y subterráneas, entre el estado y el nuevo consorcio, y las formas de riqueza que están sujetas a las apropiaciones del estado y las firmas privadas. Este artículo analiza la intersección del estado, el mercado y la corrupción bajo las nuevas contradicciones de jurisdicción producidas bajo las condiciones neoliberales. Aborda al neoliberalismo como un proceso que borra la frontera entre el estado y el mercado y genera un simulacro de orden social, en el cual la corrupción y el robo no van en contra del estado, sino que, por el contrario, hacen parte del mismo.

COMPORTAMENTO DE RISCO E A CONTRIBUIÇÃO DA PSICOLOGIA PARA A REDUÇÃO DOS ACIDENTES DE TRÂNSITO: UMA REVISÃO DA LITERATURA
Authors: Zanon Neusa Maria , Brisotto Luciane De Fátima Rotth
Published: September 2020

Este artigo tem o objetivo de identificar os principais estudos que descrevem as causas, as consequências e a contribuição da psicologia em relação aos acidentes de trânsito, visto o elevado número de acidentalidade nas estradas de todo o Brasil, na maioria considerados gravíssimos devido ao alto índice de mortes e sequelas dos envolvidos. Através da leitura das bibliografias encontradas, verificou-se o quanto o fator humano implica nas causas e consequências dos acidentes de trânsito, principalmente no que diz respeito à conduta e ao comportamento dos condutores, sendo que, referente a estes, nota-se que prevalece a desatenção e o excesso de confiança. Como estudado, o trânsito não é constituído somente de condutores de veículos, mas também de tudo e todos que se envolvem no espaço destinado para a circulação e o movimento. Dentro deste ambiente, outro elemento que também circula em grande número e predispõe significativo índice de risco é o pedestre, o qual também tem regras e normas a seguir. De tal modo, é possível às políticas públicas de transportes e circulação, através de um trabalho multidisciplinar no qual a psicologia também contribua, procurar desenvolver ações que priorizem o espaço urbano, com o objetivo de proporcionar um ambiente harmônico e democrático. Este trabalho pode visar, ainda, possibilidades de uso e incentivos voltados aos outros meios de transportes, objetivando mais fluidez e segurança no trânsito.

Published: September 2020

Introduction. Early warning scoring systems are important for timely identification of the critically ill, but are they a relevant prognostic tool? Our objective was to test if Modified Early Warning Score (MEWS), lactate, and base excess (BE) have any prognostic value in high dependency unit patients. Methods. This was a prospective observational study that included 364 patients treated at a respiratory high dependency unit. The values of MEWS, lactate, and BE at admission were recorded with patients? age, sex, and comorbidities. Negative outcome was defined as death or transfer to the intensive care unit. Independent predictors of negative outcome were identified with the use of multivariable logistic regression. Results. Of 369 patients, 203 (55%) were male. Mean age was 62 ? 16. There were 138 (37.4%) patients with negative outcome: 27.37% died, while 10.03% patients required intensive care unit transfer. The median length of hospital stay was 13 days (IQR 7?15). Patients with negative outcome had a significantly higher MEWS (3.68 ? 1.965 vs. 4.57 ? 2.33, p < 0.001), lower BE (-0.139 ? 7.48 vs. -3.751 ? 6.159, p < 0.001), and a higher lactate (2.299 ? 2.350 vs. 3.498 ? 3.578, p < 0.001). MEWS ? 4 (OR 1.90, CI 1.082?3.340, p = 0.026) was the only independent predictor of mortality. Area under the curve (AUC) for MEWS with regard to in-hospital mortality prediction was 0.633 (95% CI 0.569?0.697). When age was added to MEWS, the AUC was 0.76 (95% CI 0.707?0.814). Conclusion. Our findings support the prognostic value of MEWS for final outcome of patients admitted to the high dependency unit.

Authors: Koşar Selin , Çokakoğlu Serpil , Kaleli İlknur
Published: September 2020

Objectives

To investigate whether the use of xylitol-impregnated toothbrushes affects periodontal condition and microbial flora in orthodontic patients with poor oral hygiene.

Materials and Methods

Forty-four patients with baseline mean Turesky plaque index scores ≥1.5 were randomly divided into two groups. Half received xylitol-containing toothbrushes and the other half, xylitol-free toothbrushes. The periodontal measurements and saliva samples were taken at baseline (T0), 1 month later (T1), and 3 months after brushing (T2) to evaluate periodontal health and microflora changes. Periodontal status was assessed with plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), and bleeding on probing (BOP) scores. Data were statistically analyzed with Mann-Whitney U and Friedman tests.

Results

All periodontal parameters significantly decreased from T0 to T1 and from T0 to T2 in both groups. The PI and GI scores reduced significantly in the control group, while BOP scores reduced in both groups between T1 and T2. Intergroup comparisons showed significant differences for BOP, PI, and GI at T0, T1, and T2 times, respectively. For microbial parameters, there were no statistically significant differences within groups from T0 to T1. Total bacterial counts significantly decreased in the xylitol group between T1 and T2. Decreases in Streptococcus mutans and total bacteria were significant in both groups from T0 to T2. No significant differences were found between the groups in microbial flora at any time.

Conclusions

A 3-month use of xylitol-containing toothbrushes showed almost the same changes and provided no positive effects on periodontal and microbial parameters compared to the control group.

Published: September 2020

Penelitian ini dilaksanakan dengan menganalisis studi kepustakaan dari berbagai buku-buku dan jurnal-jurnal ilmiah. Penelitian yang dilakukan ini bertujuan untuk mencari tahu penyebab yang dapat meningkatkan perkembangan moral anak yang berusia dini. Sedangkan metode penelitian menggunakan library research dan jenisnya berupa penelitian deskriptif. Hasil penelitiannya menunjukkan bahwa perkembangan moralitas anak yang berusia dini memperlihatkan adanya proses perubahan tingkah laku, budi pekerti, akhlak, maupun karakter anak untuk memiliki perkembangan yang baik. Perkembangan perilaku pada anak disebabkan oleh faktor lingkungan terdekat atau sekitarnya. Perkembangan tersebut dapat berupa keadaan situasi lingkungan, konteks individu, atau kepribadian seseorang dalam konteks sosial atau cara berintraksi dengan lingkungan sekitar dalam bermasyarakat. Hal ini membuktikan bahwa perlu adanya peran orang tua atau pendidik dalam membimbing anak yang masih berusia dini, karena hal tersebut akan mempengaruhi perkemban yang terjadi pada diri anak dimasa yang akan datang. Jadi, dapat disimpulkan bahwa pengaruh perkembangan moral pada anak usia dini dipengaruhi oleh faktor keseharian anak dalam lingkungan sekitarnya, sehingga perlu adanya suatu pembelajaran pada anak mengenai nilai-nilai positif yang akan mengajarkan anak baik secara moral maupun sosialemosiaonalnya.

En el artículo se desarrolla parte de los resultados de investigación acerca de la escena bonaerense de la música metal entre los años 2013 y 2017. El eje está puesto en la perspectiva de género y en las sexualidades. La escena construye una identidad social predominante a través del paradigma de la autenticidad metálica, que se caracteriza por evaluar la veracidad de les músiques, les aficionades y sus prácticas por medio de parámetros patriarcales. De este modo, les agentes construyen identidades masculinas y femeninas alternativas que dialogan y tensionan con la heteronormatividad.
María Zambrano: La muerte viviente
Authors: Bungard Ana
Published: September 2020

María Zambrano no pensó en la muerte como cesación de la vida, sino como «verdadera vida». La entendió como instantes de pérdida radical que el sujeto padece ante una experiencia límite que ella caracteriza como situación de «naufragio». El artículo enfoca la relación dialéctica entre vida y muerte como polos complementarios en la metafísica de María Zambrano. No hay vida sin muerte, dice, ni hay muerte sin vida, pues el ser emerge del fondo de la nada. Al sentir el ser, el sujeto inicia un morir que es un «despertar» del amor creador recibido en el origen de la vida. La muerte es fuente de esperanza y sabiduría para quien acepta su presencia.

The necessity for a children’s picturebook to generate a proairetic decoding by the children influences translators to deliver the messages of the source text as explicit as possible. This condition leads the translators to implement amplifications aimed at detailing particular information. Though a proairetic reading is achieved through amplification, negative impacts follow the implementation. This qualitative experiential study involves nine children picturebook translators. Exchanging insights and translated texts in a focused group discussion (FGD) comprising of English to Indonesian and English to Javanese children picturebook translators, we found that a typology of amplification technique constructed specifically for children picturebook translation is required to provide a guideline for the translators when forced to apply amplification. The result of the translation data, supported by FGD, indicates that amplification is classifiable into three function-based types namely naturalizing, synchronizing, and stylizing amplifications. These amplifications, when applied, generate four impacts namely congruity losses, effect rendering, reading level deviation, and deviation on the purposes of the children’s picturebooks. These impacts deal with verbosity and thus requiring a further concern on verbosity level acceptance.

Its primary aim is to find out the functions of ‘maaf’ in the Indonesian language. The subject of this study is written data which is from three Indonesian novels. Meanwhile, the object is the functions of the use of the word ‘maaf’. Reading attentively method was used in collecting data specifically in noting technique. The technique used for data analysis is pragmatic (identity) method. The researchers used the framework by Kimura (1994) combined with Pratiwi and Hilaliyah (2018) in analyzing the functions of ‘maaf’ in the Indonesian language. Based on the analysis, it was found that the function of ‘maaf’ in the Indonesian language are for regret (63 occurrences) as the most used in the novels, followed by attention-getter (five occurrences), closing (four occurrences), request (three occurrences), and mocking or teasing (two occurrences ) as the least used function. Generally, the characters in the novel were displayed to produce apologies in different ways, depending on power (i.e. employee to employer), relationships (i.e. a nephew to his aunt, between friends), age (i.e. same age, young to old, and vice-versa) and situation (i.e. approaching strangers). These different ways bear various functions of ‘maaf’ in their conversations. The article further elaborates on the results and provides recommendations for future research in related studies.
Arising reading patterns in understanding literary texts
Authors: Gopal Revathi , Singh Charanjit Kaur Swaran
Published: September 2020

This paper reviews reading attempts made by students at the lower secondary -- level in oral reading and retelling to understand literary texts. The study involved a qualitative research method in collecting data, which relates to the students’ reading patterns in understanding literary texts and the impact of students’ reading patterns on literary texts comprehension. The sample in this study comprised six average ability Form One (i.e. seventh grade) students from a secondary school. Data collection techniques included content analysis of students’ oral reading and retelling. Students’ oral reading and retelling were centred in the literature textbook currently used in lower secondary school. Data collected were subsequently analysed by using frequency counts in the form of percentages. The findings from oral readings show that students formed their own mental framework to guide them through in text comprehension, and the results of retellings analysis suggest that the literary texts were readable and were within the students’ comprehension level. However, none was able to infer beyond the text and to relate the text to one’s own life. This did not influence students’ text comprehension. The study indicates that different forms of patterns arose during oral reading among students in ways how they connected the ideas on the page to comprehend the literary texts. This aided teachers in their choices of classroom instructions that best fit the students’ reading ability.

Published: September 2020

The purpose of this study was to validate instruments regarding digital technology access among Indonesian English as a Foreign Language (EFL) faculty members during the Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). An EFL Faculty member’s Access to Digital Technology (EFL-FADT) scale was adopted from previous relevant studies consisting of Motivation, Skills, and Use. A total of 235 EFL faculty members from three public and three private universities in Indonesia participated in this study, selected through cluster random sampling. A survey design was applied to examine the factor structure of the EFL-FADT. The survey data were computed through the steps of Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) with IBM SPSS 23 and SPSS AMOS 23. Through the EFA with Varimax rotation, two factors emerged from Motivation, three from Skills, and two from Use. The result successfully mapped the proposed model. The CFA approach verified the instrument which was satisfactory for Indonesian EFL faculty members. The findings informed 25 valid and reliable indicators. The measured scale achieves psychometric properties. It can provide future studies with a tool to capture EFL faculties’ access to digital technology.

Authors: Aziz Zulfadli A. , Safhida Maya , Mahmud Masrizal
Published: September 2020

This qualitative research examines kinship terms in the Tamiang language and the strategies of selection of the terms by its speakers. The data for this research were obtained through questionnaire, and interview from eight informants living in Bendahara Sub-District, Kejuruan Muda Sub-District, Karang Baru Sub-District, and Seruway Sub-District, Aceh Tamiang Regency, the Aceh Province. Observation was also done on the use of some of the kinship terms directly by the people in the speech community. This observation took place while the authors were socializing with the speakers in the research location. The results showed that the kinship terms in the Tamiang language are based on consanguinity and affinity. The kinship terms in the language also refer to birth order. Then, the strategies of the selection of kinship terms in the Tamiang language are based on kinship, age, gender, and descent, especially in terms of a speech event. Viewed role relationships, the terms addressed to men/women in the third layer of vertical relationships are not different. The horizontal relationship indicating the position of siblings and wife/husband is equal. The horizontal role relationship of cousins in the Tamiang language is limited to the third order. This study is very urgent since the study on kinship terms in the Tamiang language has not been conducted comprehensively before. Complete terms used to address family members in the Tamiang language are provided in this study, and it can be one of the resources for further research in the same field of study.

Published: September 2020

Prolonged armed conflicts between the Government of Indonesia and the Free Aceh Movement/Gerakan Aceh Merdeka (GAM) happened from 1976 to 2005. The three-decade-vertical political conflicts have received worldwide attention in research, except its humorous sides. This study attempted to capture the types and styles of humor within the memories of Aceh society. To do so, this qualitative study used interviews and document analysis to interview 20 Acehnese people from five districts in Aceh province who experienced the vertical wars in Aceh and analyze written resources. The research found that there are many types and styles of humor that happened unintentionally as the result of the speakers’ mistranslating and miscode-mixing from Acehnese language to Indonesian language during unexpected interactions. Most of the humor occurring during the wars in Aceh fall into the incongruity theory, the verbal pun style, and the self-enhancing style. The findings of the study provide insights on the humorous side of the long wars through communicative interactions in Aceh that are useful to relieve tension when remembering the bitterness of the wars.

Published: September 2020

Giriş ve Amaç: Gastrik kanser (GK) ve kolorektal kanser (KRK) gibi gastrointestinal ilişkili kanserler, önemli bir halk sağlığı problemi haline gelmiştir ve preoperatif değerlendirme, ilk tedavi stratejilerinin belirlenmesinde oldukça önemlidir. Bu çalışma, GK ve KRK hastalarında preoperatif nötrofil-lenfosit oranı (NLO) ve trombosit-lenfosit oranı (TLO)'nın olası prognostik değerini değerlendirmek için yapıldı. Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu retrospektif çalışmaya 50 GK, 50 ardışık KRK hastasını ve yaşları eşleştirilmiş 60 ardışık sağlıklı kişi (kontrol grubu) alındı. Preoperatif tam kan sayımı sonuçları (nötrofiller, trombositler ve lenfositler) hastanın tıbbi kayıtlarından alındı. Bulgular: NLO ve TLO değerleri hem GK hem de KRK hastalarında kontrol grubuna göre anlamlı olarak yüksek bulundu (her ikisi de p <0.001). KRK hastalarında TLO değerleri GK hastalarına göre anlamlı derecede yüksek bulundu (p <0.01). NLO ve TLO değerleri hem GK hem de KRK hastalarında kontrol grubuna göre anlamlı olarak yüksek bulundu (her ikisi de p <0.001). NLO ve TLO değerleri hem gastrik hem de kolorektal kanserin evre 4 hastalarında evre 3 hastalara göre anlamlı derecede yüksek bulundu (her ikisi de p <0.001). Hem GK hem de KRK hastalarında NLO, lenfosit sayısıyla negatif olarak ilişkiliyken, nötrofil sayısı, trombosit ve TLO ile pozitif olarak ilişkiliydi. Sonuç: GC ve CRC'de, NLO ve TLO, önemli bir öngörücü biyobelirteç olabilir. NLO ve TLO değerlerinin, GK ve KRK hastalarında prognozu tahmin etmek için basit, uygulanabilir, ucuz ve kullanışlı parametreler olarak kullanılabileceği sonucuna varıldı. Sonuçlar klinik uygulamada daha geniş çaplı çalışmalarda doğrulanmalıdır.

Interest in bioenergetic crops, such as the castor oil plant Ricinus communis (Euphorbiaceae), for production of biodiesel has increased in recent years. In this paper, phytophagous arthropods, their natural enemies and floral visitors associated with this plant in the world are reviewed. Despite its insecticidal properties, arthropods have been reported feeding on R. communis plants. The arthropod pests of R. communis damage all parts of the plant, including the seeds, where some toxic compounds are even more concentrated. In the scientific databases, we found reports of 193 arthropods associated to R. communis in different parts of the world. This information obtained in the scientific databases was concentrated in a database and analyzed according to the coevolutive hypothesis, which allows us to predict that the greatest wealth and abundance of phytogenic arthropods is found in the center of origin by R. communis. According to this review, Achaea janata, Spodoptera litura, Edwardsiana flavescens, Liriomyza trifolii, L. sativae, Spilosoma obliqua, Cogenethes punctiferalis, Oxyrhachis taranda, and Helicoverpa armigera are the most devastating pests in Asia. In Africa, Agrotis ipsilon, S. exigua, Nezara viridula, Trialeurodes ricini, and Tetranychus urticae were mentioned as the most important. In Central and South-America, Phyllophaga sp., Agrietes sp., Erinnyis ello, N. viridula, Corythucha gossypii, Falconia antioquiana, and S. marima are reported as pests of economic importance. The most commonly reported natural enemies of some of these arthropod pests were species of Bacillus thuringiensis, B. cereus, B. popilliae, Trichogramma achaeae, T. chilonis, T. minutum, T. australicum, T. dendrolimi, T. pretiosum, T. evanescens, Microplitis rufiventris, M. maculipennis, M. ophiusae, Telenomus remus, T. proditor, Stethorus siphonulus and S. histrio. Apis mellifera is recorded as the main insect pollinator of R. communis. Pest management methods used against the arthropod pests of R. communis include biological, ethological, mechanical, cultural, genetic, and chemical control.

Published: September 2020

Banyaknya kecelakaan kerja pada proyek infrastruktur khususnya jalan tol pada tiga tahun terakhir, menunjukkan adanya permasalahan yang terkait dengan pelaksanaan Keselamatan dan Kesehatan Kerja (K3) di lapangan. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengkaji lebih lanjut terhadap tiga permasalahan K3 yaitu Upaya Penurunan Perilaku Beresiko, Upaya Peningkatan Kepatuhan Pekerja terhadap K3, dan Upaya Peningkatan Keberhasilan Pelaksanaan Prosedur K3 khususnya pada konstruksi jalan tol di Indonesia. Penelitian dilakukan dengan menggunakan kuesioner pada tiga proyek jalan tol yang berada di Kawasan Jakarta dengan jumlah responden sebanyak 222 orang pekerja. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat tiga hal yang perlu diperhatikan dalam pelaksanaan K3 dibidang konstruksi khususnya jalan tol. Hal pertama adalah upaya meminimalisasi perilaku beresiko pada pekerja dengan memberikan bekal pengetahuan yang cukup dan sistem pengawasan yang baik. Hal kedua adalah upaya meningkatkan kepatuhan pekerja dalam melaksanakan prosedur K3 dengan membuat kebijakan dan program yang diwujudkan dalam bentuk penyediaan sarana dan prasarana K3 yang mendukung sebagai wujud dari komitmen top management. Hal ketiga adalah upaya peningkatan pelaksanaan prosedur K3 dengan melaksanakan pengawasan yang tepat dan didukung oleh penerapan hukuman yang tegas sesuai dengan peraturan yang berlaku. Ketiga hal tersebut harus diperhatikan agar dapat mendukung keberhasilan pelaksanaan program K3 untuk meminimalisasi kecelakaan, khususnya pada proyek jalan tol di Indonesia.
Pemanfaatan Baterai untuk Mengurangi Beban Puncak dan Meningkatkan Penyerapan Energi Regenerative Braking pada Kereta Api
Authors: Maghfiroh Hari
Published: September 2020

Semakin meningkatnya kebutuhan transportasi dan meningkatnya pemanasan global akibat polusi, maka sistem transportasi massal merupakan alternative utama. Kereta api merupakan salah satu moda transportasi yang paling effisien dari segi energi dibandingkan moda transportasi lain. Kereta api listrik merupakan kereta yang ramah lingkuangan. Akan tetapi, kereta ini memerlukan energi listrik yang besar. Salah satu cara untuk mengurangi konsumsi energi kereta listrik adalah dengan regenerative braking. Listrik hasil regenerative braking kurang dapat termanfaatkan dan kebanyakan dibuang di brake resistor. Energy Storage System (ESS) dapat dipakai untuk menyimpan energi hasil regenerative braking. ESS dapat diletakkan disamping lintas (track-side) maupun pada sarana kereta api (on-board). ESS on-board (ESS-OB) memiliki efisiensi dan manajemen energi yang lebih mudah. Baterai dipilih menjadi ESS-OB karena marupakan salah satu jenis ESS yang lebih unggul dibanding tipe lain yaitu flywheel dan super-capacitor. Pengujian simulasi dilakukan dengan memodelkan substasiun, kereta api, ESS-OB, dan brake resistor. Pada pengujian kereta berjalan diantara dua substasiun dan berhenti di tiga stasiun kereta api. Hasil pengujian menunjukkan bahwa penambahan baterai sebagai ESS-OB di kereta mampu menyerap energi hasil regenerative braking dengan baik dan mampu mengurangi beban puncak hingga 2,11 %. Penghematan energi akan lebih banyak jika diterapkan pada beberapa unit kereta dan frekuensi perjalanan yang lebih tinggi. Penambahan baterai ini juga meningkatkan massa kereta hingga 0,07%.
