Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Youth is a stage of life every individual experiences: a period characterized by spontaneous, adventurous, non-conservative, changeable, and rebellious acts. This book discusses the Indonesian youth, their identity, and their issues. The first chapter gives a sketch of the youth in Jakarta, the trend-setters of the Indonesian youth, their appearance, language, and lifestyle. The sketch is obtained from discussions with different groups of youth and adults (parents) in Jakarta. A retrospective study compares the portrait of the youth of today and the youth from the past. Part two discusses an issue faced by many Indonesian teenage girls. Indonesia's prevalence of child marriage is alarming. It ranks seventh in the world. Young girls are forced to marry and denied the rights for education. Dependency on the husband makes them vulnerable to abuse. Poverty is the most common reason for marrying young beside interpretation of religion, social stigma (shame), avoiding premarital sex and unplanned pregnancy. There are contradictions in the pluralistic legal system between the Marriage Law, Child Protection Law, Islamic and adat laws. Child wives are powerless, invisible and voiceless.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This project involves the monitoring of fluid-fluid interface by well test analysis in the presence of wellbore storage and skin effects. The study therefore is on the interpretation of well tests data obtained for both short and long duration well tests. The term 'short-duration' is used herein to indicate either drawdown or build-up tests run for a period of time insufficient to reach the usual straight-line portion of a well test. The analytical solution is presented to the problem of flow of slightly compressible fluid in a limited, composite reservoir with radial symmetry which is produced by a well at the centre. The system is composed of two zones of different permeability in concentric series. The solution to this problem is useful in the fundamental study of the behavior of reservoirs having low permeability 'rim' and in the pressure transient behavior of some wells having horizontal fracture or a large fractured area such as would be created by a nuclear explosion. 100 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Levels of viremia were linked with increased DENV intensity and proposed that lowering viremia may reduce morbidity and the risk of dengue hemorrhagic fever or dengue shock syndrome. Infected mice by dengue showed increased TNF-a, IFN-g and IL-6 levels, which were recognized as triggers for DENV. We have found that reducing some immune parameters in blood through the use of antiviral treatment significantly decreases pro-inflammatory cytokine levels and increases the concentrations of coagulants factors in the blood of the treated patients. These results suggest that lowering pro-inflammatory cytokine parameters through timely antiviral drug treatment may improve the severity of DF symptoms and perhaps decrease the risk of progression 124 pp. Englisch.…
