Abstract

This study explores the effectiveness of cocoa husk extract as a natural corrosion inhibitor for steel exposed to hydrochloric acid (HCl). Steel samples were immersed in the extract solution for four different durations: 48, 96, 144, and 192 hours. After coating, the samples were subjected to an HCl solution for 168 hours. The corrosion rate was assessed using the weight loss method, which quantifies mass reduction as an indicator of corrosion severity. Surface characteristics were analyzed through optical microscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and theoretical modeling using Density Functional Theory (DFT). The findings demonstrate that the application of cocoa husk extract significantly reduces corrosion rates, with a maximum inhibition efficiency of 78.4%. This improvement is attributed to the formation of a protective layer on the steel surface, which acts as a barrier against acid interaction. The results suggest that cocoa husk extract is a promising, environmentally friendly alternative for protecting steel materials from corrosion.

Abstract

Teknologi Internet of Things (IoT) telah memberikan kontribusi signifikan dalam berbagai sektor, termasuk pertanian. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk merancang dan mengimplementasikan alat penyiraman tanaman otomatis berbasis IoT di Balai Penyuluhan Pertanian (BPP) Kecamatan Sijunjung. Sistem ini menggunakan ESP32 sebagai mikrokontroler dan aplikasi Blynk pada smartphone untuk mengontrol pompa air secara jarak jauh, serta mengatur agar pompa menyala setiap 8 jam selama 5 menit secara otomatis. Hasil penerapan menunjukkan bahwa sistem ini efektif dalam mengurangi ketergantungan pada tenaga kerja manual, meningkatkan efisiensi penyiraman, dan memastikan tanaman mendapat air pada waktu yang tepat. Penggunaan sistem ini terbukti dapat meningkatkan keberhasilan dalam pembibitan, terutama di wilayah dengan topografi yang menantang seperti Sijunjung. Ke depannya, pengembangan lebih lanjut dengan integrasi sensor kelembaban tanah diharapkan dapat membuat sistem lebih cerdas dan efisien.

Abstract

This study investigates the numerical performance and parameter sensitivity of a RLC circuit solved using the adaptive Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg (RKF45) method. The mathematical model is formulated as a second-order ordinary differential equation and numerically integrated using RKF45 with local error control, then compared with the classical fourth-order Runge-Kutta (RK4) method using a fixed time step. Validation against the analytical steady-state solution shows that RKF45 achieves high accuracy with a lower Root Mean Square Error (RMSE ? 1.39×10??) while requiring 40% fewer integration steps than RK4. A sensitivity analysis based on normalized sensitivity coefficients is performed for ±10% variations of the R, L, and C parameters. The results reveal that inductance is the most dominant parameter influencing oscillatory dynamics, followed by capacitance, while resistance contributes mainly to damping. The sensitivity ranking is found to |. Overall, the findings display that RKF45 offers an efficient and accurate approach for RLC transient simulation and parameter sensitivity evaluation, making it suitable for applications that require high-precision dynamic analysis.
