The Capability of Pronouncing the English Diphthongs by the English Department Students, Faculty of Humanities, Udayana University

/in /by

This study aims at investigating the capability of the English department students, Faculty of Humanities, Udayana University in pronouncing diphthongs. Diphthong is a glide from one vowel to another. English is very rich in words containing diphthongs, such as: / aI / in the word try / traI / buy / baI /; / eI /, in the words they / ðeI /, day / deI /, / eə / as in hair / heə /, chair /tʃeə/. Meanwhile, the number of diphthongs in Indonesian and Balinese as the mother tongue of the students is very limited. This difference certainly creates problems for students in pronouncing the English words consisting of diphthongs.

The knowledge of English sounds is taught in the subject of English phonetics and phonemics in the fifth semester. This study examined the ability of new students who have not taken the English Phonetics and Phonemics subject to be compared with the ability of those who have got this subject, so that it can be seen to what extent this course can change student performance in pronouncing diphthongs.

This research is a qualitative descriptive research supported by quantitative data. The population of this study was 50 new students and 50 sixth semester students, taken randomly. The research instrument was a list of English words containing diphthongs and questionnaires. The technique of collecting data was done through recording, and the data were analyzed descriptive qualitatively and presented formally and informally.

Luminescence Studies of Transition Metal (Cu+ and Ag+ Ions) Activated Alkali Zinc Mixed Phosphate

/in /by

Because of the importance of inorganic phosphates in the solid-state lighting industry, KZnPO4 doped with some transition metal dopant ions like Cu+ and Ag+ ions were prepared by low-cost co-precipitation method at room temperature followed by annealing at a high temperature around 6500C. The prepared phosphors were characterized by X-ray diffraction. In the case of a Photoluminescence study for KZnPO4 doped with Cu+, the emission was observed at 425 nm, which corresponds to the emission of Cu+ ion. In the case of Ag+ doped KZnPO4, weak emission was observed at 420 nm, which is assigned to the emission of Ag+ ions.  CIE chromaticity coordinate of KZnPO4 doped with Cu+ and Ag+ ions phosphor was also evaluated via using OSRAM SYLVANIA color calculator and colour purity of concentration was nearly 95% of Cu+ and Ag+ ions. The obtained outcomes revealed that the prepared phosphor shows potential application in the field of solid-state lighting.

The Colour Perception – In an Indoor & Outdoor Architectural Environment

/in /by

Colour is considered an integral element for an indoor and outdoor environment. It is an essential element of our environmental experience and visual perception. It is often connected to, stimulated by, light in the natural or human design environment and accompanies us in different visible ways. They are the substance of how we experience the surroundings, as humans are the centre of concern in designing the architectural environment. It affects individuals differently based upon their age, gender, culture and other biological factors. Colour is a universal visual language appreciated by all. The aim is to utilise colour as an expressive component to emphasise the building character and create unity and harmony.

Impact of Environmental Design in Interception of Crime

/in /by

Crime has become one among the most important issues in cities round the world. This issue has given rise to varied issues in terms of worry of crime and has become a significant disturbance for residents in urban areas. Crimes like devastation, terrorism, burglary, shoplifting, employee theft, assault, and espionage endanger lives and threaten the built environment. This has subsequently led to the need for crime prevention action to be taken. Architectural and urban designs that take into account safety from crime, and security against criminal damage or terrorism is what termed as security designs, which mainly focuses on the specific element of security and crime prevention that relates to the physical opportunity for victimization, damage and harm. By improving environmental design, it can be prevented to some extent. This paper includes the outline of ways like, crime prevention through environmental design (CPTED), defensible space, and building security. This paper also includes about the creating of safe cities, safe work environments, and safe places to live and play. The main aim of this paper is to know how the crime prevention methods could be linked more closely to developments in architecture and design. This approach to a security design recognizes the intended use of space in building and is totally different from traditional security practice, which focuses on denying access to a crime target with barrier techniques.
