Abstract

Soil liquefaction and its associated ground failures, pose a significant threat, causing damage to engineering structures during earthquakes, and one of the most effective methods used to mitigate liquefaction in liquefied soil is micro-pile (MP) method. Therefore, this study aims to examine the current state of MP method as liquefaction countermeasure in the soil of the Coal Fired Power Station in Central Java, an area with a high liquefaction potential. A three-dimensional finite element analysis, conducted with OpenseesPL software, uses a numerical method to yield information about ground lateral deformation and excess pore pressure generation caused by MP method during seismic shaking. This result examines important design parameters, including diameter, spacing, length of MP, and inclination of ground, to address these issues. MP method increases the stiffness of soil, reducing excessive pore pressure and thereby minimizing liquefaction risks. In general, MP remediation appeared effective for any sloping ground. This study provides valuable information for devising an efficient remediation solution by comparing relevant variables, such as diameter, spacing, MP length, and ground inclination, under the same conditions. Numerical simulation with OpenseesPL yields results such as stress and strain path, acceleration time histories, excess pore pressure, displacement time histories, and maximum lateral displacement, which are then compared with various diameter parameters. The diY6-ameter parameters were compared to test how the additional diameter dimension affects the performance of the micropile provided to the soil. This will be demonstrated based on the results shown on excess pore pressure and maximum lateral displacement. This comparison shows that increasing MP diameter is more effective in reducing the risk of liquefaction.

Abstract

Microbial-induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) is an environmentally friendly approach that relies on the production of calcium carbonate by microorganisms to construct or reinforce coastal structures. In order to address the disadvantages of current coastal countermeasures techniques, MICP is a cost-effective solution that can be used to repair and restore coastal habitats damaged by human activities. The resulting structures formed through MICP are strong and durable, providing long-term protection against erosion and flooding caused by storms or rising sea levels. Biominerals, including calcium carbonate or calcium phosphate, are used to create complex composites with organic molecules by combining the strength of inorganic materials with the versatility and biocompatibility of organic macromolecules. It is of the utmost importance to investigatethe functionality of MICP and scale up its deployment in various fields in order to thoroughly assess the instrument’s application. Coastal erosion has been a severe concern in archipelagic countries. Therefore, this study explored the Miyazaki coast in Japan and the Yogyakarta coastline in Indonesia to minimize coastal erosion using MICP. The bacteria found in Miyazaki (Sporosarcina species) and the Yogyakarta coast (Pseudoalteromonas tetradonis) were used in the experiment. As a result, the sample treated with a gradual injection of the cementation solution achieved about 6 MPa UCS after 21 days of treatment. The objective were investigated the potential biotreatment with original sand materials and to evaluate the long-term durability under saturated conditions. For these purposes, the MICP-treated sand columns were subjected to series of compression tests and wet-drying (WD) durability analysis.

Abstract

The need for clean water during the pandemic is significantly increasing due to high public awareness of adopting a clean and healthy lifestyle (PHBS), necessitating more water treatment. Conventional methods are used for water treatment, including coagulation-flocculation system, rapid sand filter, and disinfection. However, these methods have limitations such as reduced capacity and sand filter efficiency, leading to increased backwash costs due to the need for sand replacement caused by particle stratification. In response to these challenges, an innovative method to water treatment is the use of concrete sand filter (CSF). Previous studies predominantly focused on downflow filtration, but there has been limited analysis of horizontal flow. Therefore, this study aimed to assess filtration and backwash effectiveness of CSF with horizontal flow, specifically focusing on the capacity performance in treating water with varying levels of turbidity. Filtration experiment was carried out using simulated water at turbidity of 125 NTU based on the Mataram Channel Turbidity with variations of 0.2, 0.5, 1.0, 5.0, and 10.0 m hour-1, as well as backwash at flow rate of 40.91 m hour-1 for 3 minutes. The variables measured during filtration process included head losses and turbidity at the inlet and outlet of CSF. The results showed that the capacity performance during filtration process was directly proportional to flow rate. Meanwhile, the effectiveness of concrete filter was inversely proportional to flow rate. At initial turbidity <617 NTU, the 3 minutes backwash process obtained lower final turbidity compared to the raw water used, which was 5.19 NTU. Meanwhile, at turbidity 617 NTU, the final turbidity was still high, reaching approximately 14.6–26.4 NTU.

Abstract

Liquefaction is soil condition associated with the drastic increase in pore water pressure of uniform sandy soil due to an enormous earthquake. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the correlation of liquefaction potential with excess pore water pressure ratio in nine boreholes located at Kretek 2 Bridge area using empirical and numerical methods. Liquefaction potential was estimated based on a semi-empirical method simplified by Idriss and Boulanger (2008), and safety factor (SF) value of <1.0 was used to represent the existence of its potential. The result showed that liquefaction potential was dominant at depths of 1.5 to 6.0 m, with the exception of BH-9 with 16.5 m and BH-4. Furthermore, the excess pore water pressure ratio was estimated using empirical method developed by Yegian and Vitelli (1981) as well as Serafini and Perlea (2010). Numerical analysis was also conducted for comparison purposes and the process focused on using Deepsoil v7.0 to generate excess pore water pressure by considering soil conditions and dominant seismic sources in Kretek 2 Bridge area. The result showed that the ratio of excess pore water pressure was greater or equaled 0.8. Both empirical and numerical methods produced similar values for BH-1, BH-2, BH-8, and BH-9 at a depth of 1.5–3.0 m, 3–4.5 m, 3.0 m, and 16.5 m, respectively. This showed a correlation between excess pore water pressure ratio and liquefaction potential values at the same depth. However, numerical method tended to overestimate the ru value, necessitating the use of empirical method to obtain a more reliable result.

Abstract

The steel-constructed buildings in Indonesia are on the rise, indicating a growing preference for their durability and versatility in construction projects. This led to the general application of Round Hollow Structural Section (Round HSS) as column and beam elements. Therefore, this study aimed to conduct parametric analysis of the effect of Diameter-to-Thickness Ratio (D t-1) on the three-point and four-point flexural analysis of Round HSS beam using MSC Marc/Mentat software. Nonlinear materials and geometries were employed, along with the application of contact analysis, with contacted and contacting bodies. Moreover, the load and boundary condition were set to be similar to the experiment. The results showed that a greater D t-1 led to the possibility of withholding a smaller load and causing smaller displacement in Group A with fixed diameter and different thickness values. Meanwhile, in Group B with fixed thickness but different diameters, a greater D t-1 led to the potential of restraining more load and experiencing smaller displacement. All specimens from both groups were observed to have failed due to a combination of global and local buckling at the right location under the load applied. AISC bending moment calculated was found to be greater than the values obtained from the finite element analysis for all sections under three-point loads. It was also discovered in the four-point flexural analysis that the bending moment of noncompact section was greater than for AISC while those for the compact section were lower. Furthermore, shear strength (Vn) calculated was observed to be greater thanshear force from finite element analysis (Pmax/2).

Abstract

The methods employed to calculate the axial bearing capacity of a helical pile depends on the shear failure model around the pile, which is also influenced by the spacing and diameter of the helical plates. However, studies on the transition of the failure mode and the load transfer mechanism with the change of helical plate spacing and diameter in cohesionless soil subjected to axial compressive load have been limited. Thus, this paper investigated the effects of helix diameter and spacing on the axial compressive load-bearing capacity, shear failure model, and load transfer mechanism of helical piles with two helical plates embedded in the homogeneous medium and dense sands, as well as in the stratified medium to very dense sand. Axial loading tests on helical piles with various helix diameters and spacings were simulated using a two-dimensional finite element program with axisymmetric modeling to obtain the load-settlement curve, which was later used to estimate the ultimate bearing capacity of the helical piles. The ultimate bearing capacity of the helical piles was also computed using the conventional methods, i.e., the individual bearing and cylindrical shear methods, and then compared to the numerical-based axial bearing capacity. The stress-strain behaviors of pile and soil were modeled using the Linear Elastic and Mohr-Coulomb material models, respectively. The results show that the numerical-based ultimate bearing capacity of a helical pile increased with increasing the diameter and spacing of the helix. However, the ultimate bearing capacity computed using conventional methods did not show this trend. Then, the transition from the cylindrical shear to the individual bearing failure mechanism occurred at a spacing ratio (i.e., helical plate spacing divided by its diameter) of about two. Ultimately, the load transfer curves indicate that the helical plates mainly supported the applied load.

Abstract

A landslide was experienced in Karyamekar Village, Cilawu District, Garut Regency, West Java, on 12 February 2021 at approximately 300 m length with a depth of 20 m, leading to a steep slope. Therefore, this study aimed to use 3D back analysis to determine soil shear strength to be subsequently applied in analyzing the possibility of further landslide with due consideration for tension crack and rainfall effect. It was also used to understand the influence of these factors on slope stability. Filled tension crack and rainfall effects were modeled using Finite Element Method (FEM) while Limit Equilibrium Method (LEM) was applied for back analysis. The results of back analysis showed that peak shear strength value of φ was 31.18° at a cohesion of 8.01 kPa while the residual shear strength value of φ was 10.35° with 2.31 kPa. The φpeak value was found to be close to the estimated 32°, but there was a significant difference in the φresidual which was approximated to be 30°. This discrepancy could be attributed to several factors such as the accuracy of rainfall data and geometry as well as the absence of some soil samples during the investigation. The cohesion values for peak and residual soil shear strength were considered acceptable because of the smaller values compared to the typical cohesion of SM (Silty Sand) which was set at 20°. Moreover, slope stability analyses conducted using only the effect of tension crack produced a safety factor of 0.996 while those with only the effect of rainfall had 1.172. The results showed that water pressure in tension crack had a more significant influence on slope stability compared to rain. However, it was important to state that the variation in the significance of each factor was based on the assumptions made during the analysis.

Abstract

Mandalika Special Economic Zone is tourism area that is expected to improve the economy in West Nusa Tenggara Province. To support these activities, an allocation of domestic water needs of 200 liters second -1 is needed. The potential availability of water in the Pengga Reservoir is planned to be a source of domestic water needs in the Mandalika Special Economic Zone. Pengga Reservoir has an effective storage volume of 17.26 MCM. Potential water resources in Pengga Reservoir are obtained from reservoir outflow upstream and lateral inflow from several tributaries. The study was carried out to determine the reservoir storage capacity to meet domestic water needs and irrigation water needs covering an area 3189 ha. The cropping pattern used in the Pengga irrigation area is Paddy – Paddy/Secondary Crops – Paddy/Secondary Crops. To optimize the potential of water resources in the Pengga Reservoir, a linear programming optimization method is used. Indicators of the success of optimization calculations are indicated by the value of cropping intensity, k factor and reliability that have met the minimum limit value. The k factor value for irrigation water needs is 0.70 and domestic water needs is 0.85. Based on the optimization results, it is known the largest annual cropping intensity value occurs in the November I planting season. This conclusion can be seen from the comparison of annual cropping intensity values for the November I and November II planting schedules for the dry year inflow discharge scenario of 99.98% and 97.22% respectively. The cropping intensity value in the November I planting season is greater than November II, namely 100% and 97.25%, for the normal year discharge inflow scenario. This study provides an information for policy makers can use the November I planting schedule to obtain values for maximum cropping intensity and domestic water requirements.

Abstract

Cikakembang River, a tributary of Citarum River, is situated in the densely populated Majalaya District, renowned for textile production. Direct discharges of domestic and industrial pollutants into the river contribute to substantial pollution, making it crucial to manage pollution levels. This implies that controlling pollution is crucial, as it significantly impacts the condition of Citarum River, already infamous as one of the world most polluted rivers. A key indicator for assessing river water quality is Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD), representing the oxygen required for microorganism-mediated decomposition. This parameter is influenced by deoxygenation rate, denoted as kd. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze the most suitable kd value for Cikakembang River using various empirical methods, including Simple, Fujimoto, Sawyer, Thomas, Fair, and Hydroscience. The result showed that Thomas method provided the most accurate prediction for BOD concentration of the river. In rainy season, Root mean square error (RMSE), mean absolute percentage error (MAPE), and coefficient of determination (R2) values were 0.542, 0.035, and 0.981, respectively, and in dry season, the values were 0.117, 0.009, and 0.999. Additionally, kd value effectively simulated the river water quality using HEC-RAS, yielding satisfactory results. RMSE, MAPE, and R2 values for BOD concentration were 3.551, 0.162, and 0.331 in rainy season and 1.071, 0.100, and 0.812 in dry season. Finally, the modeling result showed that Cikakembang River did not meet the Class 2 Water Quality Standard during both rainy and dry seasons. This finding is critical, as it underscores the severity of the pollution problem in the river and the urgent need for comprehensive and effective management strategies to improve its water quality.

Abstract

In December 2021, Mount Semeru experienced an eruption accompanied by extreme rainfall, which resulted in lava floods, known as lahars or debris flows. The lava flood destroyed infrastructure, resulting in loss of life. Various rivers surrounding Mount Semeru, including the Rejali River, experienced the effects of this phenomenon. To address this, a study is needed to analyze the occurrence and frequency of lava floods over specific time intervals through the creation of a hazard map. This study aims to map the hazard of lava floods for various return periods using a coupled HEC-HMS and HEC-RAS software alongside a lava flood discharge approach. The HEC-HMS software is used to simulate hydrological processes, to obtain the lava flood discharge, while the HEC-RAS is used to model a two-dimensional (2D) lava flood hazard map. The input parameters of the modeling in this study are rainfall intensity, soil type, land cover, river distance, slope, and elevation. The results show that the flood area covers 9.55% of the total study area by 2 year return period (Q2), 11.80% by Q10, 14.10% by Q50, and 15.72% by Q200 with an overall validation Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) of 0.16. These changes are determined by the discharge volume from each return phase and the river's shallow depth, which causes overflow beyond the river's ability to accommodate the flow. Thus, this study suggests that the models successfully generated a reliable model for mapping the risk of lava floods on the Rejali River. These findings can help the government reduce disaster losses through adequate adaptation and mitigation initiatives.
