Vehicle Fleet

A heterogeneous vehicle fleet is one that is composed of several types of vehicles. The number of each type of vehicle in the fleet is called the fleet’s composition. The problem of determining the best fleet size and composition for an in-house heterogeneous company fleet having a known demand was solved in this paper. A computer model was developed which tied a fleet simulation model to two different search algorithms. One of the search algorithms is a complete factorial nonsequential search and the other is a combination of a partial factorial nonsequential search and a heuristic sequential hill-climbing search. The objective of both searches is to select the fleet size and composition which provides the lowest total vehicle travel costs to the company. Several examples were used to demonstrate the use of the model.

The complexity of taxi operation system grows out of the inherent dynamics and randomness of taxi services. A simulation model of cruising taxi operation system is presented, through which, the dynamic features of the taxis 24-hour available service can be recurred. A new method of determining the system optimal taxi fleet size is developed. These are helpful to taxi supervisor for providing better service.

ABSTRAK Upaya untuk meningkatkan mutu pendidikan keperawatan khususnya untuk mendukung peserta didik menjadi perawat profesional memerlukan proses pembelajaran dengan menggunakan fasilitas keterampilan klinis. Practice based simulation model didasarkan pada teori belajar konstruktif yang menegaskan bahwa pengetahuan tidak pasif ditransfer dari pendidik kepada peserta didik, tetapi dibangun oleh peserta didik melalui pengolahan pengalaman dan interaksi dengan lingkungan mereka. Dengan metode simulasi di laboratorium dapat mendorong mahasiswa untuk menggunakan critical thinking dalam mengambil keputusan dalam mengatasi masalah tanpa merugikan pasien yang sebenarnya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh practice based simulation model terhadap critical thinking pada mahasiswa semester VI di FIK Unissula Semarang. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode Quasy – Experiment dengan pendekatan pretest-posttest with control group design. Pengambilan sampel dengan teknik  simple random sampling dengan jumlah 21 responden baik kelompok intervensi maupun kelompok kontrol. Analisis data menggunakan uji Paired T-Test dan Independent Samples T-Test. Hasil penelitian selisih peningkatan critical thinking pada kelompok intervensi sebanyak 11.95 poin dan pada kelompok kontrol 2.05. Practice based simulation model berpengaruh terhadap critical thinking dengan nilai p=0.00<0.05. Disimpulkan bahwa practice based simulation model mempengaruhi critical thinking pada mahasiswa semester VI FIK Unissula Semarang. Kata kunci: Practice based simulation model, critical thinking
