Formative evaluation of the regional development planning policies: A study on the consistency of the regional development planning in Kebumen regency by Alizar Isna, Soesilo Zauhar, Bambang Supriyono, Hermawan Hermawan

“…The results of the study show: (1) Regional development planning policies, which regulate the process and stages of the preparation of regional long-term development plans/RPJPD, regional medium-term development plans/RPJMD, and regional development work plans/RKPD were developed in the process of preparing the three regional development planning documents of Kebumen Regency to meet local needs; (2) The process of preparing the 2005–2025 RPJPD, 2006–2010 RPJM, 2010–2015 RPJMD, and 2006 to 2014 RKPD uses a technocratic approach that emphasizes the importance of multi-sector data (3) Factors that affect the process of preparing and documenting regional development planning documents are compliance in the hierarchy of multi-sector existing data administration, the development of regulations for the implementation of regional development planning policies, the existence of existing multi-sector planning data documents national, provincial, and regional development documents related to development planning, as well as the use of technocratic approaches; (4) The 2010–2015 RPJMD is inconsistent with the 2010–2015 RPJPD. …”

Effect of Shielding Gas on Microstructures and Mechanical Properties of TC4 Titanium Alloy Ultranarrow Gap Welded Joint by Laser Welding with Filler Wire by Naiwen Fang, Erjun Guo, Kai Xu, Ruisheng Huang, Yiming Ma, Caiyou Zeng, Yicheng Yang, Jilin Xie, Hao Cao

“…The results showed that HAZ of the welded joint formed with Ar as shielding gas was much wider than that with He, and weld microstructure composition with the two shielding gases was basically consistent; phase boundary of the weld metal obtained with Ar was clearer, with a larger misorientation between the laths; α′ martensite lath in weld metal prepared with He showed obvious preferred orientation distribution, and α′ martensite microstructure was much finer; the misorientation of α′ phase grain boundary of weld microstructure prepared with Ar was slightly less distributed in high angle grain boundary than that with He; tensile property of the welded joint prepared with He was better than that with Ar; the hardness of each zone of welded joint prepared with He was less fluctuated and the hardness value measured was slightly higher than that with Ar.…”
