Abstract

Vanadium has long been used as a corrosion-resistant coating, including as a metal alloy for battery cathodes. However, batteries discovered with non-smooth cathode surfaces due to the fabrication process have a short battery life. So, a cathode coating stage is required via the electroplating method under the influence of a magnetic field or Magneto Electro Deposition (MED). Knowing the limiting current in MED is very important because the optimum mass transport achieves at the limiting current (iB). The smoothest and most compact electrodeposit surface will occur at this limiting current. In this study, Feed Forward Neural Network and Neural-Wiener are suggested and compared as a nonlinear modeling approach to determine the ideal limiting current because of their strong capacity to anticipate the link between input and output from experiment data. The Levenberg-Marquadt optimization technique with hidden neurons was used to evaluate and compare the modeling capabilities of two neural networks, the Feed Forward Neural Network, and the Neural Wiener. The results of this study are presented as a comparison of the Mean Square Error (MSE) values obtained from the nonlinear modeling of two artificial neural network algorithms. The algorithm that models the ideal current limiting has the lowest MSE value (iB).

Abstract

In this paper, we propose an extension for a model of unsaturated soils developed by Van Genuchten (1980) and obtain a thermos-hydric model to study the influence of temperature on the water retention curve. A brief presentation of the Model is described using the independent parameter modeling method. The proposed hydrometric Model makes it possible to predict, from the experimental measurements carried out on drainage-humidification paths for an ambient temperature, the WRC (water retention curve) at high temperatures while knowing the initial state of the soil studied (Compacted or in the form of a paste). We show in this Model the existence of the hysteresis phenomenon between the drainage and humidification path and the shift of the downward retention curves showing a slight decrease in the water content as the temperature increases. To validate this Model, three experimental results from the literature are simulated. The results obtained by simulating the experimental curves show the ability of the proposed Model to predict WRC at high temperatures. These results considerably reduce the number of experimental trials in geotechnical and geothermal unsaturated soils.

Abstract

Wind energy is renewable energy used as an energy source for wind power plants (PLTB). The most common distribution method used to model wind speed distribution data is the Weibull distribution. The Nakagami distribution has begun to be widely used in several studies to model wind speed distribution data. The Nakagami distribution is considered an alternative to the Weibull distribution in modeling wind speed distribution data. This study aims to compare the distribution of Nakagami and Weibull in analyzing wind power potential and calculating the resulting Wind Energy Production (WEP), using wind speed distribution data from both distributions in Kuta Raja, Banda Aceh and Lhoknga, Aceh Besar. The wind speed data used is satellite data (secondary data) downloaded via windguru.cz, with the most stable wind speed being a wind speed of 3-5 m/s. The value of wind power potential at the Kuta Raja location, Banda Aceh was obtained at 64.16% with the Nakagami distribution and 62.73% with the Weibull distribution, and 73.60% with the Nakagami distribution and 73.28% at the Lhoknga location, Aceh Besar. The comparison of these two distributions produces a Weibull distribution that is superior to the Nakagami distribution for both locations, where the Weibull distribution has a smaller error value and produces a WEP value that is in accordance with the actual/observable data compared to the Nakagami distribution. In this study, the Nakagami distribution has results that make this distribution an alternative or comparison to the Weibull distribution in distributing wind speed data with further research.

Abstract

This study develops a linear mixed model (LMM) that includes spatial effects between regions with a spatial autoregressive model (SAR model). Between observations (regions) on that LMM are usually assumed to be independent. However, these assumptions are not always fulfilled due to dependency between regions. There are two important parts in spatial modeling: spatial dependence and spatial heterogeneity. In this study, we are concerned with the spatial lag or SAR models because dependency between variables of interest is easier to predict. On the other hand, all observations are real and can be directly seen from the data patterns. In addition, as a challenge for researchers to find all estimators while the values of the spatial dependence, sampling variance, and component variance are all unknown. This study aims to find all parameter estimators using a numerical approach and exact solutions. All exact estimators obtained are consistent estimators.

Abstract

A column is a structural element that carries axial compressive loads. This compressive axial load causes the shortening of the structural column. It causes the column to be subjected to a tensile force in its axis perpendicular to the compression axis. This tensile force causes the column to collapsereinforcement methods to improve the quality of concrete in resisting higher axial compressive loads. Strengthening the column with external restraints is expected to increase the strength of the concrete. The use of synthetic Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) as a composite material for external restraint on structures is widely used for strengthening concrete structures. Considering the environmental impact, natural FRP materials have been developing nowadays. One of the natural fibers that have been researched and used as a composite material for Natural Fiber Reinforced Polymer (NFRP) is abaca fiber. This research aims to find the contribution of abaca fiber in increasing the compressive strength of confined concrete as a preliminary study. This study conducted the test by applying a compressive load to concrete specimens reinforced with NFRP restraints. Specimens were cylinders with a diameter of 150mm and 300mm in height. NFRP was applied at the cylinder circumference area (jacketing method) by using manual wet-layup techniques. The NFRP was investigated with variations in the number of NFRP layers. The results showed that NFRP-confined concrete has a higher compressive strength of 34.73% than the controlled specimen.

Abstract

Land cover changes affecting the area's ecology align with the development and increase in urbanization. Tarogong Kidul Subdistrict, Garut Regency, experienced changes in the land cover which changed the soil surface temperature. This study aims to determine the relationship between changes in land cover and land surface temperature. This study used Landsat 8 Surface Reflectance Tier 1 satellite imagery to extract information on the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index and process ground surface temperatures for three periods, 2014, 2017, and 2020, and the guided classification method. Image collection and processing were carried out using Google Earth Engine and software. ArcGIS Pro. The distribution of land surface temperature was then correlated with changes in the NDVI (value of the land cover vegetation index) using simple linear regression analysis and spatial correlation. This study reveals that land cover change is closely related to an increase in soil surface temperature, as indicated by the rise in soil surface temperature in areas experiencing land use change. The results of the linear regression analysis (84.49%) showed that changes in land cover and the greenness index of vegetation were the most critical driving factors for changes in soil surface temperature.

Abstract

Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) waste contains 50-60% Zn. EAF waste synthesis has the potential to produce ZnO, which can be used in a variety of applications. The hydrothermal method is used in the synthesis, with time variations of 3 and 6 hours and temperature variations of 120 C, 150 C and 200 C using precipitating reagents in the form of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and oxalic acid (C2H2O4). UV-Vis spectrophotometer characterization result shows the absorbance value at 365 nm, which is the absorbance characteristic of ZnO material. The result of increasing the Zn element was revealed by XRF characterization. The XRD characterization revealed zinc oxalate dehydrates. This result depicts the hydrothermal with the oxalic acid solvent used to produce zinc oxalate dehydration at various temperatures and time variations.

Abstract

Establishing a spatial mathematical model that uses diverse data types such as ratio data, interval data, and ordinal and nominal data is a challenge. This paper describes how the mathematical model of the rate of natural forest cover change was developed by considering the causes and/or driving forces that come from the society's biophysical and/or socioeconomic aspects. The main objective of this research is to establish a spatial mathematical model using the environmental and socioeconomic variables that play a significant role in determining the rate of natural forest cover change. From a number of variables considered in the analysis, coupled with any other reason, the rate of natural forest cover change (y), in units of ha per year), this study found that there are 10 potential variables, namely the proximity of the road (x4), the proximity of the river (x5), the proximity of the settlement (x6), proximity from the regency capital (x8), the proximity of the capital city of the district (x9), proximity of the edge of the forest in 2015 (x11), the proximity of the plantation area in 2009 (x12), the proximity of the plantation in 2015 (x13), slope class (x16), and elevation class (x17). The standardization process successfully transformed the non-ratio data type into a ratio data type. Using the standardized data, the study obtained spatially mathematical models that are reliable in estimating the rate of forest cover change, namely y = 0.017 + 0.00040x9 with SR of 17.3% and R2 is 88.0%. The study concludes that the most significant factor affecting the natural forest cover change in the study site is the proximity from sub-district capital (x9). Therefore, a spatial mathematical model can facilitate the government in monitoring forest cover.
