During the past century, and most par-ticularly in the decades following World War II there has been a tremendous ex-pansion of the impact of science on everyday life. Explanations of scientific phenomena, particularly those of catastrophic effect on society, are given at all levels of education, science dominates the news media, most households make use of products that are the result of appli…

Fluid mechanics is a study of the behaviour of fluid at rest and in motion. The study takes into account the various properties of fluids and their ef-fects on the resulting flow patterns, in addition to the forces acting between the fluid and its boundaries. To explain observed fluid behaviour and to pre-diet fluid behaviour, the study and application of fundamental laws (conserva-tion of mass…
Kebutuhan untuk mengetahui medan geomagnet utama tanpa pengaruh faktor eksternal sangat besar bagi para surveyor pertambangan, pengguna atau penyedia navigasi satelit dan ilmuwan-ilmuwan yang mempelajari cuaca antariksa atau hubungan matahari bumi. Oleh karena itu dibuatlah suatu model geomagnet yang disepakati secara internasional yang dikenal sebagai model IGRF (International Geomagnetic Refe…
All creatures presumably have some kind of awareness of their surroundings, and there is abundant evidence that some kind of mental imagery is a normal activity of the brain in at least the higher animals. How this takes place is still a mystery. This imagery ranges from purely pictorial recall such as a remembered face to artificial con-structs such as might occur in a fanciful dream. An indis…
Maps are graphic representations of the cultural and physical environment. Two subclasses of maps exist: general-purpose (reference) maps and thematic maps. This text concerns the design of the thematic map, which shows the spatial distribution of some geographical phenomenon. Map scale, or the amount of reduction of the real world, is critical to the cartographer, since it determines selection…
To geologist, the field is where rocks or soils can be observed in place, and field geology consist of the methods used to examines and interpret structures and materials at the outcrop. Field studies are primary means of obtaining geologic knowledge. Some studies may be as simple as visiting a single outcrop or quarry, making notes and sketches on the relations between certain rocks, and colle…

Structural Geology may be defined as a study of the framework of the earth’s crust and the causes that are distorting it. However, in its broader phases, structural geology is not limited merely to crumplings and fractures of the crust. Although we see only a thin rin and although information about the unseen vast interior must, of necessity, be based on indirect evidence – yet it is deep-s…
