Abstract

Rainfall is hydrology event that occurred seasonal in every year. There are two seasons occurred in Indonesia, dry season and rainy season. The analysis of rainfall characteristics plays a significant role to predict the rainfall occurrence and probability of flash flood. In this paper, rainfall analysis using Hydrognomon v.4.0 will provide hydrology data information, such as rainfall intensity and time series. The highest maximum rainfall of 526 mm (in 2010) has a return period of about 11 years. This means that rainfall of this magnitude can be expected to occur once every 11 years. The maximum rainfall of 425 mm (2013) has a return period of about 5.5 years, indicating a more frequent occurrence than the highest rainfall. Thus, it makes data trend rainfall with higher values tends to have longer return periods, indicating infrequent intensity. However, rainfall with lower intensity tends to have shorter return periods and occurring more frequently.

Abstract

Rainfall is an essential component of climatology that should be consistently analyzed over extended periods. Availability of complete rainfall data is one of the most important parts in relation to Hydrology and Water Resources. The ideal data is  that in accordance with what is needed. However, in practice, incomplete records are often encountered, this can be caused by several things, including equipment damage, employee negligence, equipment replacement, and natural disaster. This situation causes certain parts of the time series data to contain empty data, it is necessary to pay attention to the pattern of the distribution of rain and the surrounding stations. In this paper, there are three rainfall stations analyzed, these are BBMKG Region I, Sampali station, and Belawan station. Unfortunately, there are two missing rainfall data in 2001 and 2006 in Belawan station. Therefore, this paper uses the Normal Ratio Method and the Inversed Square Distance Method to complete the rainfall data and compare the two methods. From the result, there are different values from the two methods, the value is smaller using the Normal Ratio Method. It can be caused by the influence of distance factors on inversed square distance.

Abstract

The development of renewable energy technologies increasingly demands innovative, efficient, and environmentally friendly designs. Vertical Axis Wind Turbines (VAWT) are among the promising energy conversion systems suitable for urban and marine applications. However, aerodynamic efficiency and environmental adaptability remain key challenges. In contrast, the anatomical structures of plants particularly leaves and stems have naturally evolved to optimize interactions with airflow and sunlight, making them a rich source of inspiration for technological innovation. This article presents an interdisciplinary literature review exploring how principles of plant anatomy can be integrated into VAWT blade design to enhance aerodynamic performance and energy conversion efficiency. Through a comprehensive analysis of literature from mechanical engineering and plant biology, this study identifies key anatomical features such as surface curvature, venation patterns, and epidermal textures as having direct relevance to drag reduction, turbulent flow regulation, and lift enhancement. This review aims to open new directions for bioinspired design approaches in wind turbine development and strengthen the collaboration between engineering and biological sciences in advancing sustainable energy technologies.

Abstract

Plastic waste is one of Indonesia’s most critical environmental challenges, comprising approximately 17% of the nation's 64 million tons of annual waste. This study explores the impact of a recycling workshop that transformed plastic waste into handicrafts, conducted at the Malang Waste Bank and involving students from Universitas Kristen Cipta Wacana Malang. Using an activity-based participatory approach, the workshop aimed to enhance students’ environmental awareness, practical recycling skills, and understanding of circular economy principles. Data were collected through observations, interviews, questionnaires, and documentation. The results showed a significant increase in students’ knowledge of the 3R concept (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle), along with improved technical skills in sorting, melting, and crafting recycled products such as bags, hats, and wallets. The workshop also encouraged environmental entrepreneurship by demonstrating that waste can be transformed into valuable and marketable items. This initiative exemplifies how community-based, hands-on learning experiences can foster sustainability values in higher education and support the Merdeka Belajar Kampus Merdeka (MBKM) policy framework.

Abstract

The use of vertical rotating cylinders based on the Magnus effect as an alternative propulsion system for ships has been explored since the early 20th century. By harnessing lateral wind, such rotors are capable of generating thrust to replace conventional sails while simultaneously reducing fossil fuel consumption. However, the efficiency of conventional Flettner rotors remains limited due to their reliance on an external energy supply from driving motors. The novelty of this study lies in the development of a Flettner rotor integrated with quarter-circular blades mounted coaxially to enable self-rotation. This design differs from previous studies that predominantly employed half-circular blades or full rotors, and it is expected to enhance the power coefficient (????ₚ) and torque coefficient (????ᵥ) while maintaining more compact dimensions. This research aims to determine the optimal configuration of blade numbers (2, 4, 8, and 16) and aspect ratio (AR) that delivers superior aerodynamic performance for ship propulsion applications. An experimental approach was conducted using wind tunnel testing of scaled models. Variations in blade number were evaluated based on key performance parameters, including rotor speed, torque, thrust, and the coefficients ????ₚ and ????ᵥ. Data acquisition employed RPM sensors, load cells, and a microcontroller-based system. Statistical analysis was applied to compare each blade configuration against the initial hypothesis that increasing the number of blades improves rotor performance up to a certain limit, beyond which excessive blade numbers reduce efficiency due to increased drag. The findings of this research are expected to contribute to the advancement of more efficient, autonomous, and sustainable ship propulsion systems through the use of a Flettner rotor driven purely by wind energy.

Abstract

This study investigates the fundamental fluid dynamics of steady-state laminar flow past a circular cylinder using the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) with a D2Q9 lattice arrangement. Developed using a vectorized Pythonic approach, the numerical solver employs the Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook (BGK) collision operator to resolve the mesoscopic particle distribution functions. The research focuses on the flow characteristics at low Reynolds numbers (Re) ranging from 20 to 70 to ensure stable convergence toward steady-state conditions. Results demonstrate that the LBM effectively captures critical hydrodynamic phenomena, including stagnation points, flow acceleration due to blockage effects, and the development of symmetric wake regions. Analysis reveals a linear correlation between increasing Reynolds numbers and the longitudinal elongation of the recirculation zone, confirming the solver's ability to maintain numerical stability and momentum conservation without the computational expense of conventional pressure-velocity coupling. These findings validate the use of open-source computational tools for rigorous fluid flow analysis and provide a robust dataset for future integration with multi-scale modeling and machine learning frameworks, such as Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs).

Abstract

Limited household land is one of the main constraints on vegetable cultivation in densely populated urban areas. This community service program aimed to introduce modular vertical gardening racks and improve the knowledge and practical skills of urban communities in cultivating short-cycle leafy vegetables. The program was conducted with residents of RT 007/RW 01, Bandulan, Sukun District, Malang City, in February 2026 and involved 30 participants. The activities consisted of a partner needs assessment, participatory rack fabrication, training in plant biology and cultivation techniques, installation, and four weeks of mentoring. The racks were designed using hollow-steel frames with bolted joints, three planting levels, and removable planting containers, allowing them to be easily assembled, relocated, maintained, and expanded according to the available space. Program outcomes were evaluated using pretest and posttest questionnaires, skill observation sheets, participant response questionnaires, and plant growth monitoring. The program produced eight modular vertical gardening racks equipped with 72 planting containers. The participants’ mean knowledge score increased from 56.3 on the pretest to 84.7 on the posttest. Furthermore, 86.7% of the participants achieved the competent category in rack assembly and vegetable cultivation. At the end of the monitoring period, the plant survival rate reached 93.1%, supported by appropriate growing-medium preparation, watering practices, and light management. The program demonstrates that an interdisciplinary approach integrating manufacturing engineering and plant biology can provide practical, affordable, and replicable urban agriculture technology. Continuous mentoring and evaluation over several planting cycles are recommended to strengthen community independence and ensure program sustainability.

Abstract

Insufficient lighting at selected residential access points and limited public familiarity with small-scale renewable energy are common challenges in densely built neighborhoods. This community service program developed a pilot Savonius vertical-axis wind turbine as a supplementary power source for an LED residential street-lighting system at Perumahan Bulan Terang Utama, RT 04/RW 18, Madyopuro, Kedungkandang, Malang, East Java. The independently funded activity did not involve a formal institutional partner. The work included site assessment, energy sizing, rotor and support-structure fabrication, generator and battery integration, installation, commissioning, safety communication, and preparation of a maintenance framework. The prototype used a two-stage Savonius rotor with a 1.44 m² swept area, a permanent-magnet generator, rectifier and buck-boost converter, charge controller, 12 V battery, dusk-to-dawn control, and a 6 W LED lamp. Engineering calculations using a rotor power coefficient of 0.15 and realistic conversion efficiencies indicated electrical outputs of approximately 1.6–12.2 W at wind speeds of 3–6 m/s. Under a representative low-wind daily scenario, the projected energy production was approximately 52 Wh/day, sufficient for about 7.5 hours of LED operation after storage losses. The prototype provides a practical platform for demonstrating energy conversion and maintenance requirements. Long-term wind measurement, structural verification, electrical-safety review, and battery monitoring are required before broader replication.
