Abstract

Remote sensing technology is important to determine the geography information. Based on the sensor used, remote sensing can be divided into two types namely optical and radar. Radar-based remote sensing is more suitable for use in parts of Indonesia when compared to using an optical sensing, because of Indonesia has a large enough cloud cover. One type of radar sensor is a sensor Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR). SAR sensors are generally operated in the linear polarization. When propagating in the ionosphere, micro wave with linear polarization will be disturbed by the effects of Faraday rotation. The impact of the effects of Faraday rotation can be reduced by emitting microwaves in circular polarization -CP. The signal quality of the CP can be described by a parameter called axial ratio. This study simulates antenna design to determine the effect of the dimensions of the antenna on the antenna characteristics. The simulation was performed by varying the length of the patch, the width of feeding and truncated junction on the patch antenna. Antenna dimension is obtained will be used as a reference in determining the dimensions of the antenna for the CP-SAR. The device used in this simulation is IE3D with the type of substrate pillar packing (NPC-H220A) with 2,17 dielectric constant of 3,2 mm thickness and loss δ = 0.0005. From the simulations, it can bestated two of research result. First, that the correlation between the length of the patch and the operating frequency of the antenna is comparable as well as the width of feeding and the input impedance. Second, the antenna dimensions are used to determine the model of the characteristics of the antenna for applications CP - SAR at 1,270 GHz operating frequency with a value of 50,54 Ω input impedance, VSWR of 1,053 and 1,1288 dB axial ratio

Abstract

West Sumatera is an earthquake prone area because it is in the active subduction zone between the Indo-Australian plate and the Eurasian plate. In addition, West Sumatera is also traversed by the Sumatera fault system, which consists of four active fault segments, namely the Sumpur segments, the Sianok segment, the Sumani segment and the Diffi segment. From every earthquake that occurs in a place will cause a value of ground acceleration. The maximum ground acceleration value can be determined by direct measurement using Accelerograph or by attenuation formulation such as the Fukushima and Tanaka attenuation formulation (1990) and the Patwardhan attenuation formula. The data used in this study is the PGA Accelerograph value recorded in the February 2013-December 2017 period at the Padang Panjang BMKG. The magnitude used is 3.3-6.2SR and its depth is 2-218 km. the calculated PGA value using the attenuation formula will be compared with the PGA value from Accelerograph. Data processing is done by using three sensors namely Sta. sensor Geof. Padang Panjang. Sta. Met. Ketaping and Sta. Mar Teluk Bayur Padang. Based on the three sensors, the PGA value is calculated based on the formulation of Fukushima and Tanaka (1990) and Patwardhan attenuation according to the coordinates of each sensor. After obtaining the PGA value, the calculation of the attenuation formula was compared with the PGA value recorded by Accelerograph. From the three sensors, it was found that the PGA value calculated using the Fukushima and Tanaka formula (1990) approached the PGA value of Accelerograph. So the formulation of Fukushima and Tanaka (1990) is used to find the value of PGA in the West Sumatera region. Based on the formulation of the Fukushima and Tanaka (1990) attenuation, the city or district was obtained. Which has the highest PGA value in Kab. Mentawai Island. This is because the earthquake that occurs has a shallow depth and distance of earthquake sources close to kep regency Mentawai.

Abstract

Batu ginjal merupakan padatan yang terbentuk di dalam saluran kemih akibat adanya penggumpalan zat-zat organik dan non organik yang seharusnya larut di dalam urin. Batu ginjal harus dikeluarkan baik melalui urin maupun melalui terapi dan pembedahan. Sebelum dilakukan terapi atau pembedahan, perlu diketahui komposisi dan jenis batu ginjal yang diperlukan dalam penentuan diagnosis dan tindakan pengobatan yang tepat. Micro CT merupakan modality pencitraan yang dapat menunjukkan struktur anatomi dan morfologi batu ginjal berdasarkan nilai atenuasinya dengan ketelitian dalam orde mikro dibandingkan dengan CT konvensional biasa. Namun, terdapat kelemahan jika menggunakan single energy micro CT dalam pengelompokan batu ginjal. hasil citra pada energi tinggi tidak dapat membedakan dengan baik antara batu dengan densitas yang rendah dan tinggi namun dosis yang diterima pasien cukup rendah sehingga tidak membahayakan, dan sebaliknya untuk citra energi rendah. Dalam hal ini diperlukan metode dual energi untuk membedakan batu ginjal dengan tepat. Sebelum menggunakan metode dual energi diperlukan data perbedaan atenuasi batu untuk penyinaran berbeda. Oleh karena itu dalam penelitian ini dilakukan perhitungan untuk menentukan nilai atenuasi batu. Metode penelitian dilakukan secara komputasi menggunakan software PEGS4. Sebagai input data adalah komponen penyusun batu dan densitas batu. Hasil yang didapatkan adalah, pertama, dengan tingkat penyinaran berbeda, beberapa batu tidak dapat dikarakterisasi dengan menggunakan single energi saja. Atenuasi brushite dan struvite hampir sama, sehingga sulit untuk dibedakan. Kedua, single energi micro CT perlu dikoreksi menggunakan dual energi micro CT untuk mengelompokkan batu ginjal dengan tepat

Abstract

West Sumatra is located in an active subduction zone between the Indo-Australian plate with the Eurasian Plate and is along the Sumatra fault, so the West Sumatra earthquake prone. One way to understand the tectonic conditions of this region by relocating the earthquake hypocenter. Earthquake hypocenter result of BMKG has some weaknesses due to the program that used (SeiscomP) has a minimum depth of 10 km (fixed depth).Beside that  velocity model of  P wave  which used by the system does not match with the actual geology condition of Sumatra Barat. The data used for the relocation of the hypocenter are taken for BMKG analysis system SeisComP the until period 1 May 2009 to 30 November 2015 by using HypoDD  program with double difference method in it. AK 135 and Madlazim wave velocity model are used in the program. Double Difference method. So the velocity model errors can be minimized without using correction station. The results indicate earthquake hypocenter relocation in West Sumatra related to the fault, subduction process and Mentawai fault. The data relocation many as 1181 of the 1622 data. Based on the data obtained by percentage depth to a shallow earthquake relocation 79.3%, 45% intermediate earthquake and the earthquake in 0%. This is due to the deeper the layer, the higher the P wave velocity, so that the structure of the constituent layers will be more complex. Besides the depth of the earthquake below 10 km (fixed depth) after relocation has a variety of different depths. Earthquakes before relocating spread out so the (trendline) can not show a pattern corresponding to the main fault. Once relocated the (clusters) to form a group on the trend of the field fracturing or similar structure and distribution of earthquakes portrayed clearly. The RMS value after the relocation ranges between 0-1.5 and the RMS value before relocating ranging between 0-5
