Abstract

This literature review investigates the combined impacts of Land Use/Land Cover Change (LULCC) and climate change on natural hazards in tropical regions, emphasizing their relevance to Kinshasa. Using a thematic, narrative approach and 144 selected references, the study synthesizes global and regional findings on how urbanization, deforestation, and climate variability exacerbate hazards such as flooding, landslides, erosion, urban drought, and biodiversity loss. Key mechanisms include increased impervious surfaces, loss of natural buffers, hydrological disruption, and altered microclimates. In Kinshasa, these effects are amplified by fragile soils, steep topography, and rapid, unplanned urban growth. The study highlights how LULCC drives soil degradation, reduces groundwater recharge, and intensifies flash floods and urban heat islands. Concurrently, climate change increases extreme rainfall and drought risk, interacting with land cover changes to amplify vulnerability. The results show that Kinshasa’s environmental risks stem from both climatic forces and anthropogenic pressures, producing nonlinear, synergistic hazard dynamics. The review concludes that integrated, spatially explicit risk assessments are essential for informing adaptive urban planning and resilience strategies. It provides a conceptual foundation for modeling hazard interactions in Kinshasa and supports the development of targeted mitigation measures in rapidly urbanizing tropical cities.

Abstract

A functional hydrocarbon system relies on three key elements: source rock, reservoir rock, and seal rock. These components are essential in assessing the hydrocarbon potential of a region. In South Sulawesi, the Makassar Basin shows promise for petroleum development, particularly with the Mallawa Formation an Early to Late Eocene unit serving as a potential source rock. Source rocks play a critical role in generating and storing hydrocarbons. Indonesia’s frequent oil and gas exploration activities are driven by the presence of numerous prospective hydrocarbon-bearing areas. It's crucial to recognize that source rocks typically form within sedimentary basins. The Makassar Basin, a land-based Tertiary sedimentary basin situated along western and southern Sulawesi, originated from tectonic activity, specifically the widening of the Makassar Strait, which began no later than the Early Paleocene. This tectonic evolution significantly affected the thermal maturation of the basin’s source rocks. This study applies geochemical analysis of cutting samples to evaluate the maturity of these rocks. The findings contribute valuable understanding to hydrocarbon exploration in South Sulawesi, a region characterized by a complex tectonic framework. The results of laboratory analyses show that sustainable hydrocarbon exploration may be possible in South Sulawesi, especially in Balangbaru Formation, which is believed to be a potential source rock, in addition to the Mallawa Formation.

Abstract

The Molek-Taluk Kuantan Air Road in Indragiri Hulu Regency, Riau, has suffered a lot of damage due to frequent crossings by heavily loaded vehicles. This study aims to find out how much the vehicle load affects the damage to the road, as well as see how soil conditions and the shape of the area contribute to the worsening of the damage. The assessment was carried out using the PCI (Pavement Condition Index) method to see the level of physical damage to the road, and the ESAL (Equivalent Single Axle Load) method to calculate the vehicle load. The observation results show that the number of vehicles passing by reaches more than 4,000 per day, with a high overload rate (Truck Factor = 3.93). In addition, the soil structure in this region consists of soft soils such as clay and peatlands, which are very susceptible to damage if constantly subjected to heavy loads. The area through which the road passes also has a slope that can cause erosion and soil shift. Overall, the average road condition was in the damaged category (PCI value = 37.4). The results of this study show the need to repair roads that take into account soil conditions, strengthening drainage, and limiting vehicle loads so that damage does not continue to recur.

Abstract

Mechatronics, as an interdisciplinary field integrating mechanical, electrical, computer, and control engineering, provides innovative solutions for energy and environmental challenges in urban regions. This study conducts a systematic literature review and meta-analysis using open access datasets to evaluate solar energy potential, electricity reliability, and air quality in Medan, North Sumatra. Results show that the city has strong solar irradiance levels, averaging 5.75 kWh/m²/day, indicating substantial feasibility for photovoltaic deployment. Electricity reliability, assessed through SAIFI and SAIDI indicators, is more stable in Medan compared with other Indonesian cities, offering a favorable foundation for renewable integration. Air quality analysis reveals moderate conditions, with PM2.5 concentrations averaging 28 µg/m³, slightly above World Health Organization standards, yet lower than Jakarta and Pekanbaru. Across all dimensions, mechatronics applications, including smart grid automation, intelligent inverters, IoT-based environmental sensors, and robotics-assisted monitoring emerge as crucial tools to bridge research and implementation gaps. The study identifies limited adoption of techno-economic feasibility analysis, localized reliability assessments, and distributed sensor networks in Medan, which restricts practical deployment. Future research should emphasize mechatronic frameworks such as predictive control, cyber-physical systems, and stochastic modeling to improve resilience. Policy recommendations highlight the need for targeted incentives, pilot projects, and interdisciplinary collaboration. Overall, this work positions mechatronics as a key enabler for sustainable energy transition and environmental management in Medan, offering insights applicable to other rapidly urbanizing regions in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study presents a comprehensive analysis of a designed three-phase electrical distribution system for a dedicated Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) plant. Based on data extracted from a single-line diagram and load schedule, a significant inherent load imbalance of 9.15% was identified. This paper outlines a four-stage methodology to investigate the consequences and propose a solution. The methodology includes a system audit, simulation-based consequence analysis of energy losses and motor derating, design of a no-cost phase-swapping mitigation strategy, and a techno-economic evaluation. The proposed passive balancing reduces the load imbalance to 1.32%. The study highlights the critical importance of meticulous load scheduling during the initial design phase to enhance system efficiency, ensure equipment longevity, and achieve significant operational cost savings without capital expenditure.

Abstract

The rapid growth of global energy demand and the urgent need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions have accelerated the transition toward renewable energy technologies, with solar photovoltaic (PV) systems playing a central role. In Indonesia, high solar irradiation provides significant potential for PV adoption, yet challenges remain in human resource capacity and technical readiness, particularly in rural areas where off-grid systems are critical. This study presents the design, development, and testing of a 200 Wp off-grid PV training module aimed at bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical skills in renewable energy education. The module integrates two 100 Wp PV panels, a 100 Ah lithium-ion battery, an MPPT charge controller, and a 500 W pure sine wave inverter, all mounted on a modular acrylic platform to enable repeated assembly and disassembly for training purposes. Experimental testing under tropical conditions demonstrated stable PV output (Voc 19.8–21.5 V, Isc 4.8–5.4 A), efficient battery charging within 8 hours to full capacity, and reliable discharging performance sustaining DC loads for 18 hours and AC loads for 12–14 hours. Inverter efficiency averaged 92%, with minimal waveform distortion under typical loads. These results confirm the module’s reliability and educational value, offering a robust platform for vocational training and community-based capacity building. The study contributes to Indonesia’s renewable energy transition and supports Sustainable Development Goal 7 by enhancing technical education and workforce readiness for solar PV deployment.
