Authors: Oveisi M.
Published: February 2021

In this study, experiments were designed on the basis of response surface method to determine the effects of current, time and electrode pressure on weld nugget diameter using the Design Expert software. The experimental results were employed to develop a mathematical model which is able to predict linear, quadratic and two-factor interactive effects of these parameters on weld nugget diameter of St12 steel with 0.8mm thickness. Adequacy of the model was checked with the help of scatter diagrams and analysis of variance (ANOVA). The predicted results indicated that increase in current and time at low and medium values increased the weld nugget diameter but at higher values due to interactive effects of parameters their increase caused a decrease in weld nugget diameter. Current increase at constant pressures had a similar effect on weld nugget diameter. The developed model was also used to maximize the weld nugget diameter using the above mentioned software. The optimization results showed that weld nugget diameter obtained a maximum value of about 5.80 mm at 10.64 KA current, 9 cycles and 2 bar electrode pressure.

Authors:   Finance Associate, Cai Lewinsky
Published: February 2021

Parallel import is a concept for importing and reselling original products from distributors that are legally obtained from producers at lower prices rather than buying directly from producers. These products are placed on the market in one country with the approval from owner and imported to another country without the permission of the owner. Parallel imports are built on the principle of exhaustion of rights. Basically, there are three principles of exhaustion of rights, namely;the principle of international exhaustion of rights, domestic/national exhaustion of rights and regional exhaustion of rights. Based on the TRIPS agreement, each country is given the freedom to determine and regulate the principle of exhaustion of rights to be applied. The issue under discussion is how the parallel import regulation in brands according to Indonesia, Indian, and New Zealand laws what can be adopted in Indonesia law regarding parallel imports based on these comparisons.

Perkawinan dapat dikatakan sebagai hal yang sangat wajar dilakukan oleh umat manusia yang ingin membangun rumah tangga atau keluarga yang bersesuaian dengan kepercayaan agama masing-masing, dalam perkawinan Indonesia aturan hukum perkawinan tercatat dalam Undang-Undang Nomor 1 Tahun 1974 tentang Perkawinan. Perkawinan hanya dapat dilaksanakan jika usia perkawinan mencukupi sesuai dengan aturan hukum perkawinan, usia yang belum mencukupi usia perkawinan masih termasuk kategori sebagai anak. Dalam Undang-Undang Nomor 23 Tahun 2002 tentang Perlindungan Anak, Anak ialah yang tidak melebihi usia 18 tahun. Maraknya perkawinan usia dini di Indonesia meresahkan pemerintahan Negara Indonesia dalam memberantas atau mencegah perkawinan usia dini. pelaksanaan perkawinan usia dini sangat berdampak besar bagi anak yang melakukannya, seperti adanya Kekerasan Dalam Rumah Tangga (KDRT), putusnya pendidikan anak, dampak kesehatan bagi anak wanita, dampak kehamilan atau kandungan dan pengaruh pysikologi dan biologi anak. Dalam hal penelitian skripsi jenis penelitian yang digunakan ialah penelitian normatif, dan data yang digunakan berdasarkan Undang-Undang, Jurnal, Artikel, dan Buku-Buku untuk memperoleh kedataan, serta metode analisa data dalam penelitian ini bersifat Kualitatif yang penjelasannya disusun secara deskriptif. Pencegahan perkawinan usia dini harus dilaksanakan atau dilakukan oleh penegakan hukum yang secara maksimal sesuai dengan Undang-Undang yang berlaku. Pencegahan yang secara maksimal dapat menurunkan angka perkawinan usia dini, bukan hanya secara maksimal akan tetapi harus dilaksanakan juga sosialisasi mengenai bahayanya perkawinan usia dini.

The measurement of cutting forces in metal cutting is essential to estimate the power
requirements, to design the cutting tool and to analyze machining process for different work and tool material combination. Although cutting forces can be measured by different methods, the measurement of cutting forces by a suitable dynamometer is widely used in industrial practice. Mechanical and strain gauge dynamometer are most widely used for measuring forces in metal cutting. The principle of all dynamometers is based on the measurement of deflections or strain produced from the dynamometer structure from the action of cutting force. In this project, a dynamometer is used to measure cutting force, feed force and radial force by using strain gauge accelerometer while turning different material in lathe. The dynamometer is a 500kg force 3- component system. As the tool comes in contact with the work piece the various forces developed are captured and transformed into numerical form system. In this project three forces of different materials such as aluminum, mild steel, brass, copper have been noted down. The forces on these materials with variation in speed and depth of cut are studied. Graphs are drawn on how these forces vary due to variation in speed.

Composites have tremendous applicability due to their excellent capabilities. The
performance of composites mainly depends on the reinforcing material applied. A Graphene nanoparticle (GNP) is successful as an efficient reinforcing material due to its versatile as well as superior properties. Even at very low content, graphene can dramatically improve the properties of polymer and metal matrix composites. In this paper the effects of GNP on composites based on epoxy resin were analyzed. Different contents of GNP (0 – 4.5 vol. %) were added to the epoxy resin. The GNP/epoxy composite was fabricated under room temperature. Mechanical tests result such as tensile, flexural and hardness test show enhancements of the mechanical properties of the GNP/epoxy composite. The experimental results clearly show an improvement in Young’s modulus, tensile strength, and hardness as compared to pure epoxy. The results of this research are strong evidence for GNP/epoxy composites being a potential candidate for use in a variety of industrial applications, especially for automobile parts, aircraft components, and electronic parts such as super capacitors, transistors, etc.

Authors: SUWARNO
Published: February 2021

Tulisan ini berfokus pada masyarakat sebagai lingkungan pembelajaran. Masyarakat dilihat sebagai satu kesatuan individu yang saling tergantung satu sama lain dan saling membutuhkan. Dalam kaitannya dengan itu pula, masyarakat dipandang sebagai sistem sosial yang saling mengejar kebutuhan. Pendidikan merupakan salah satu hal yang paling dibutuhkan oleh individu dalam masyarakat. Lingkunganlah media dan sekaligus sebagai sumber belajar bagi masyarakat, karena lingkungan merupakan tempat individu untuk mengaktualisasikan diri dan mengoperasionalisasikan gagasan serta pengalaman. Masyarakat juga dipandang sebagai komunitas belajar, karena dari masyarakat pula sumber dan juga data-data tentang pengembangan pendidikan diperoleh secara nyata. Guna meningkatkan pembelajaran yang berbasis masyarakat maka dapat dilakukan dengan tahap-tahap indentifikasi kebutuhan belajar, perencanaan proses belajar, pelaksanaan kegiatan belajar dan penilaian perkembanganbelajar.
