Austenite grain growth calculation of 0.028% Nb steel

Modeling of microstructural evolution has become a powerful tool for materials and process design by providing quantitative relationships for microstructure, composition and processing. Insufficient attention has been paid to predicting the austenite grain growth of microalloyed steel and the effect of undissolved microalloys. In this research, we attempted to calculate a mathematical model for austenite grain growth of 0.028% Nb steel, which can account for abnormal grain growth. The quantitative calculation of austenite grain growth generated from this model fit well with the experimental grain growth data obtained during reheating of niobium steels. The results of this study showed that increasing the temperature increases the austenite grain size, with a sharp gradient observed at higher temperatures

Studi Validitas Dan Realibilitas Faktor Sukses Implementasi E-government Berdasarkan Pendekatan Kappa

Since Inpres No.3 of 2003 about policies and strategies for e-Government development, the Government institution was required to be able to take advantage of the progress of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in order to improve the efficiency, effectiveness, transparency and accountability of government. The process of transformation towards e-Government was an effort to develop electronic-based government so as to optimize the utilization of ICT in general. Unfortunately, the e-Government developed merely indicate compliance with this policy, because without the quality. Various surveys had shown that Indonesia was still far behind in terms of adoption of e-Government (UNDESA, 2012). This plus the fact that most of the e-Government projects in developing countries, including Indonesia, where the failure rate of failure to achieve up to 85% while the success rate was only 15% (Heeks, 2003). However, there is no doubt there are some areas that successfully implement e-government initiatives. In this study, the authors aimed want to explore what factors determine the success of the implementation of e-Government. The study is descriptive in which the method used is a literature study related to success factors of e-Government implementation. From the results of the validation test based on expert opinion, obtained 15 success factors that must be accommodated to ensure the successful implementation of e-Government. Inter-rater reliability had also been tested with Cohen's Kappa and the approach showed satisfactory results

Model Kualitas E-Service dengan Pendekatan Meta-Etnografi

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengusulkan model e-service quality berdasarkan model (best practice) yang ada saat ini. Model e-service quality telah dikembangkan oleh sejumlah peneliti namun masih tersebar dan belum ada kesepakatan atau konsesus terhadap model khususnya dimensi didalamnya. Bahkan mode e-service quality yang ada saat ini mempunyai beberapa dimensi namun cenderung mengabaikan dimensi dan item dari model (best practice) yang lain sehingga tidak diperoleh suatu model yang bersifat generik. Oleh karena itu dalam penelitian ini dilakukan studi dengan metode systematic review khususnya pendekatan kualitatif meta-etnografi dengan mereview berbagai studi terkait model e-service quality dari berbagai artikel jurnal dan conference untuk kemudian dilakukan proses sintesa. Meta-ethnography sebagai bagian dari metode systematic review merupakan teknik mengintegrasikan data lintas studi untuk mendapatkan teori maupun konsep baru dengan tingkat pemahaman yang lebih mendalam dan menyeluruh. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan model e-service quality yang terdiri dari 20 dimensi pengukuran yang terbagi atas perspektif organisasi (15 dimensi) dan perspektif pelanggan (5 dimensi). Dari segi praktis, model yang dihasilkan dapat digunakan untuk membantu organisasi dalam mengevaluasi dan meningkatkan kualtias layanan berbasis elektroni (e-service quality)

Pengaruh Pemberian Pupuk N Dan K Terhadap Pertumbuhan Dan Produksi Bawang Merah

. Napitupulu, D. and L. Winarto. 2010. The Effect of N and K Fertilizer on Growth and Yield of Shallots. Shallots is one of the vegetables that has wide adaptation. One variety of shallots that well adapted in the lowland is Kuning. Total shallots production in North Sumatera was still quite low and has not yet been able to meet the local needs. The low productivity of shallots in North Sumatera meanwhile, was due to inappropriate fertilizers application and no suitable recommendation of fertilization package technology for spesific location. Good recommendation of fertilization application was expected to increase productivity which economically profitable. The objective of this study was to find out the effect of N and K fertilizers on the growth and yield of shallots. The study was conducted in the Experiments Garden, Assessment Institute of Agriculture Technology Medan, North Sumatera, at 30 m asl, from April to June 2008. Shallots variety used was Kuning. The treatments were four levels of N (0, 150, 200, 250 kg/ha) and four levels of K (0, 75, 100, 125 kg/ha). The experiment was arranged in a factorial randomized block design with four replications. Basic fertilizers used were manure (15 t/ha) and SP-36 (300 kg/ha), applied at one week before planting. N and K were given at the age of 3, 21, and 35 days after planting respectively with the dose of ⅓. The plot size was 1.5 x 1.5 m, and 0.3 m row spacing and distance beetween block 0.4 m, and 0.3 m respectively. Planting distance was 25 x 25 cm. Pest and disease observation were done using integrated pest control methods. The research results indicated that there was interaction between nitrogen and potassium fertilizers application to the fresh weight and dry bulb per plant. Application of fertilizer could increase shallots dry bulb yield up to 64.69 g/plant that was obtained by the application of 250 kg/ha N and 100 kg/ha K. The fertilizer application of N (250 kg/ha) and K (100 kg/ha) was recommended to increase the productivity of shallots in the area
