One of the heritages is Borobudur Temple. Several studies say that the Borobudur was enclosed by a lake. Therefore, this study aims to see the remains of an ancient lake below the surface with gravity method. The process stage begins with obtaining the CBA (Complete Bouger Anomaly) and continues by separating the anomaly with a Bandpass Filter, and followed with 3D inverse modeling and FHD (First Horizontal Derivative) analysis. According to the residual map, there are only minor anomalies in the west, south, and east, ranging in magnitude from -0.539 to (-0.209) mGal. This anomaly is consistent with the location of the ancient lake around Borobudur. In the meantime, the 3D modeling of the FHD study reveals a geologic structure surrounding the Borobudur with an anomaly ranging from 0.00289 to 0.00480 mGal. A deposit layer thought to be an ancient lake is visible between 50 and 525 meters in depth over the east and west ...

However, occurrence of language delays or disorders among 3-5-years-old children is a significant challenge that can impede this progression. These delays or disorders can have asignificant impact on word class acquisition, which is a fundamental aspect of language development. Thisstudy aims to elucidate the diverse types of word classes observed in the language acquisition process ofchildren aged 3-5 years in North Aceh. Specifically, the investigation focuses on noun, verb, and adjectiveword classes. Employing a qualitative approach within a descriptive research framework. Thus, variousdata collection techniques including observation, listening, recording, note-taking, and documentation,were utilized in this study. Purposive sampling was employed, resulting in a sample size of 5 participants.These five participants were selected based on thei...

This study aims to examine the morphological and syntactic characteristics of Singlish, an English-based creole spoken in Singapore, emphasizing its impact on interethnic communication. Using comparative analysis, Singlish's morphological and syntactic characteristics were compared to those of standard English and the languages of the three largest ethnic groups in Singapore (Chinese, Malay, and Tamil). Examining grammatical patterns, word order, sentence structure, and the use of particular linguistic features would be required. The findings demonstrate that Singlish utilizes distinctive syntactic patterns that frequently incorporate Malay, Chinese, and Tamil grammatical formulas. Singlish, in contrast to standard English, lacks subject and object pronouns and frequently em...

The study employed a content analysis methodology, which entailed gathering data from a variety of sources, including Al-Ghazali's writings and scholarly articles related to his works. The findings of this study reveal that al-Ghazali's idea of education in is dominated by directive speech acts, followed by assertive acts and constative acts. The category of recommending acts makes up the vast majority of directive acts, whereas order acts are somewhat less common. Further, Al-Ghazali’s use of speech acts tends to emphasize a competitive function, followed by a collaborative one. Interestingly, neither convivial nor conflicting functions are presented in this study. The dominance of directive speech acts, highlight Al-Ghazali's preference for providing guidance and advice to his readers in a harmonious...

Surveys, interviews, observation, and document analysis were used to obtain data. The survey was distributed to 30 TEYL teachers from 30 schools within the region. Interviews were conducted with four teachers from four different schools. The data were triangulated and descriptively examined to assess TEYL in primary schools. The findings showed a mismatch between the government's policy on English instruction in primary schools and TEYL's implementation. In the 30 schools investigated, English was taught as local content in 21 schools (70%) and extracurricular in 7 schools (23%). Meanwhile, only 2 schools (7%) did not conduct English in their teaching-learning process. Due to the lack of government supervision, teachers are free to construct their own TEYL course content. According to the interviews, adopting TEYL is challenging due to varying teacher abi...

The results of this study indicate that first, the form of supremacy shown by the female character in the novel Renjana Dyana is the effort of the Dyana character to make a change in society to end and destroy all male power which is represented in the form of freedom of attitude, action and thought as well as character courage. Dyana takes a fight against men from the aspect of sexuality. Second, apart from women's supremacy, there are factors that cause fema...

The presence of cog in the generator is seen somehow restricted the application of the generator in an application where low rotational torque is required. Cog torque requires an additional input power to overcome, hence became one of the power loss sources. With the increasing of power output, the cogging is also proportionally increased. This leads to the increasing of the supplied power of the driver motor to overcome the cog. Therefore, this research is embarked to study fundamentally about the possibility of removing ironcore lamination in an electric generator. This research deals with removal of ironcore lamination in electric generator to eliminate cog torque. A confinement technique is proposed to confine and focus magnetic flux by introducing opposing permanent magnets arrangement. There were several parameters analysed using the JMAG Designer. Transient response analysis was used in the JMAG Designer. The parameters analysed were the number of coil turns per phase, gap distance between the magnet pairs as well as the magnet grade used. These few parameters were analysed under the open circuit condition. Results showed with the increasing of gap distance, output voltage produced decreased. The increment of number of turns in the coils and higher magnet grades used, these increased the output voltage of the generator. With the help of these results, a reference point is established to get optimum design parameter for fabrication of working prototype.

Results indicated that the generator produced RMS voltage of 416VAC at rotational speed of 1762 RPM. Torque required to rotate the generator was at 2Nm for various rotational speed. The generator has shown 30% lesser rotational torque compared to the conventional ironcore type generator due to the absent of cogging torque in the system. Lesser rotational torque required to rotate has made this type of generator has a potential to be used for low wind density wind turbine application.

This leads to the increasing of the supplied power of the driver motor to overcome the cog. Therefore, this research is embarked to study fundamentally about the possibility of removing ironcore lamination in an electric generator to see its performance characteristic.

The rotational torque and power output are measured, and efficiency is then analyzed. Results indicated that the generator produced RMS voltage of 200VAC at rotational speed of 318 RPM. Torque required to rotate the generator was at 10.8Nm. The generator had working efficiency of 77.73% and the power generated was at 280W.

However, the generation of residual signal in the basis of a single module in MPS encoder can be considered as not optimal to compensate for error due to down-mixing process. In this paper, an improved residual coding method is proposed in order to ensure the down-mixing error can be optimally minimised particularly for MPS operation at high bit-rates. The distortion introduced during MPS encoding and decoding processes is first studied which then motivates for developing an approach which is more accurate in determining residual signals for better compensation for the distortion. A subjective test demonstrates that the MPS with improved residual coding can be competitive to Advanced Audio Coding (AAC) multi-channel for encoding 5-channel audio signals at bit-rates of 256 and 320 kb/s.

However, the generation of residual signal in the basis of a single module in MPS encoder can be considered as not optimal to compensate for error due to down-mixing process. In this paper, an improved residual coding method is proposed in order to ensure the down-mixing error can be optimally minimised particularly for MPS operation at high bit-rates. The distortion introduced during MPS encoding and decoding processes is first studied which then motivates for developing an approach which is more accurate in determining residual signals for better compensation for the distortion. A subjective test demonstrates that the MPS with improved residual coding can be competitive to Advanced Audio Coding (AAC) multi-channel for encoding 5-channel audio signals at bit-rates of 256 and 320 kb/s.
