Abstract

CV Maras Beton is one of the paving block producers in Sumbawa Regency. Some work activities at CV Maras Beton use machines, but some use employees' physical strength. It was found from interviews with workers that several workers who handled physical work activities experienced pain in the shoulders, thighs, waist, and legs. Namely the work of lifting sand, removing stone ash, lifting dry paving blocks, and lifting paving blocks from the machine to the hand pallet. Therefore, an ergonomic analysis was conducted on these workers to minimize work-related illnesses, including low back pain. This research uses a biomechanical approach with the Recommended Weight Limit (RWL) method. Based on the research results, it was concluded that there was one job that was categorized as high risk, namely the sand removal process. Another job categorized as medium risk is lifting paving blocks from the machine to the hand pallet. Two other jobs, namely removing stone ash and removing dry paving blocks, are categorized as low risk. So the work that requires urgent repairs is sand removal activities.

Abstract

One of the important features for diagnosing malignant thyroid nodules is based on their echogenicity characteristics, namely the grey intensity of each nodule. Therefore, computer-aided diagnosis (CADx) is required to select important features and classify nodules that are more likely to be malignant or benign and the form of treatment is known. This study proposes classifying thyroid nodules based on texture features from histogram, GLCM and GLRLM into 4 classes: anechoic, hyperechoic, hypoechoic and very hypoechoic. Ultrasound is the best way to filter information about the characteristics of the degree of malignancy of thyroid nodules used by doctors. The doctor's decision takes a long time. Early detection is necessary, so that doctors can provide treatment and prevention quickly. This study uses machine learning for early detection of the level of malignancy of thyroid nodules using ultrasound images with a dataset obtained from Sardjito Hospital, Yogyakarta Radiology Department. The results showed that the Linear SVM method is the best method to classify the level of malignancy of thyroid nodules based on the dataset which has been divided into 4 classes with 64 features resulting in an accuracy of 68.3%, a positive predictive value of 70% and a sensitivity value of 68%. Keywords: Ultrasound, Thyroid nodules, Classification, Early detection of disease, Feature extraction, Machine learning techniques, SVM echogenicity classification.

Abstract

Glaukoma merupakan penyakit mata dengan peningkatan tekanan intraokular yang menyebabkan kerusakan saraf optik dan dapat mengakibatkan kebutaan permanen. Untuk mendeteksi glaukoma, dokter spesialis mata umumnya menghitung Cup to Disc Ratio (CDR) melalui analisis citra fundus retina secara manual. Metode ini membutuhkan waktu yang lama dan mengandalkan keahlian dokter sehingga kurang efektif dan akurat. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan suatu sistem otomatis yang dapat mendeteksi glaukoma secara akurat dan efisien. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi jumlah dan kombinasi fitur terekstraksi terbaik dalam mendeteksi glaukoma, dengan menggunakan fitur-fitur seperti Rim to Disc Ratio (RDR), Cup to Disk Ratio (CDR), Vertical Cup to Disc Ratio (VCDR), Horizontal Cup to Disc Ratio (HCDR), dan Horizontal to Vertical CDR (HV CDR), serta mengimplementasikan metode klasifikasi Artificial Neural Network (ANN) Back Propagation dengan total data masukan sebanyak 160 citra, 80 citra normal dan 80 citra glaukoma. Penelitian ini menghasilkan akurasi sebesar 97,50% dengan kombinasi CDR dan VCDR.

Abstract

Vibration Assisted Machining (VAM) is a cutting method with additional vibrations on the tool or workpiece with a certain frequency and amplitude to improve the machining results' cutting performance and surface quality. VAM can be applied to several machining processes, such as drilling, turning, grinding, and milling. Based on the given direction, there are two types, 1D VAM where the vibration aligns with the actuator's axis, and 2D VAM where the vibration direction forms an elliptical movement. Both the application of VAM types in the milling process are still relatively minimal. Therefore, this study aims to present a 1D VAM system design using a piezoelectric ring actuator as a vibration device. The proposed design undergoes modal simulation and harmonic response simulation using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) method. A flexure hinge with a thickness of 5 mm and a notch radius of 5 mm is applied to the design. The results indicate that the proposed design operates optimally at a working frequency of 17,510 Hz, with a displacement amplitude of 0.0000094 mm along the Z-axis and a maximum equivalent von Mises stress value of 24.447 MPa. These results suggest that the design is viable for future experimental testing.

Abstract

The presented journal concerns calculations of heat transfer in a shield with use of two methods: finite element method and finite difference method. The comparison of heat transfer calculation of the selected problem is performed for a rectangular isotropic shield with the dimensions of 6 m x 4 m, with a rectangular hole with the dimensions of 2 m x 1 m. The shield was divided into 0.25 m x 0.25 m rectangular elements and 0.25 m x 0.25 m triangular elements for calculations in the finite element method and 0.25 m x 0.25 m rectangular elements for calculation in the finite difference method. The rectangular finite element model has 404 nodes, 352 elements, while the triangular finite element model has 404 nodes, 704 elements; the finite difference model has 445 nodes. Heat conductivity coefficients for the shield are 1.2 W·m–1·K–1 in both x and y directions. Prescribed boundary conditions are: top edge temperature 43 °C, bottom edge temperature 3 °C, left edge convection heat transfer coefficient a = 2.3 W·m–2 and ambient temperature Ta = 47 °C, right edge radiation heat flux density q = 3.8 W·m–2, 4 insulated hole edges. The shield has 2 point heat discharges: 5 W located in the point with coordinates (0.5 m, 0.5 m) and 11 W located in the point with coordinates (5.0 m, 1.0 m). The shield thickness is 1 m. The results of calculations are presented in 3 graphs in the form of contour maps. The comparison shows that the results given by the finite element method with use of the rectangular finite elements and triangular finite elements as well as by the finite difference method are similar which allows to conclude that the calculation results are trustworthy and have been done correctly. It is also confirmed by the energetic balance performed for the finite element method.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the effect of the ratio of plastic waste and sawdust on the mechanical characteristics of alternative lightweight building materials. Plastic waste is used as a thermoplastic binder, while sawdust acts as a lightweight aggregate with insulating properties. The composition of the mixture is varied in several ratios (90:10, 80:20 and 70:30) to determine its effect on the mechanical properties of compressive strength test specimens according to SNI 03-3958:1995 from the resulting mortar product. The manufacturing process involves mixing melted plastic waste with sawdust, then molding and releasing. The test results show that increasing the proportion of sawdust can significantly reduce the compressive strength. Conversely, a higher plastic ratio increases the compressive strength but produces a heavier material. The optimum composition was found at a ratio of 90:10 (plastic: sawdust), which provides a balance between strength, lightness, and insulating properties. This study shows the potential for utilizing plastic waste and sawdust as environmentally friendly building materials with feasible functional performance and in accordance with compressive strength standards.

Abstract

Sanitasi lingkungan yang baik merupakan bagian penting dalam menciptakan kualitas hidup masyarakat yang sehat dan aman. Kelurahan Taipa di Kota Palu mengalami perkembangan infrastruktur dan jumlah penduduk yang cukup pesat, namun masih terdapat tantangan dalam aspek sanitasi dan pengelolaan limbah rumah tangga. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi kondisi sanitasi lingkungan masyarakat di Kelurahan Taipa serta dampaknya terhadap kesehatan masyarakat. Metode penelitian yang digunakan yakni deskriptif kuantitatif dengan pendekatan survei terhadap 512 kepala keluarga, yakni observasi lapangan, wawancara, dan kuesioner. Hasil penelitian menyatakan bahwa sebagian besar masyarakat menggunakan sumur bor sebagai sumber air bersih dan air minum, dengan penggunaan air PDAM yang masih terbatas. Hampir seluruh rumah tangga telah memiliki jamban sehat dan menggunakan tangki septik sebagai tempat pembuangan tinja. Namun, pengelolaan minyak jelantah dan kegiatan pembakaran sampah masih menjadi isu lingkungan yang memerlukan perhatian. Sebagian besar lantai dan dinding rumah telah memenuhi standar kesehatan lingkungan. Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa meskipun sanitasi dasar telah dikategorikan cukup baik, masih dibutuhkan upaya edukasi dan perbaikan sistem pengelolaan limbah agar kesehatan lingkungan masyarakat dapat terjaga secara berkelanjutan.

Abstract

Environmental pollution issue from solid waste, especially plastic, is a global concern because it harms ecosystems and human health. A major cause is the use of single-use plastics and styrofoam, which do not break down easily. In Palu City, this problem led to the issuance of Palu Mayor Regulation Number 40 of 2021 concerning the Restriction on the Use of Single-Use Plastic Packaging and Styrofoam. This study evaluates how well this policy has been implemented and its effect on reducing plastic waste. Using descriptive quantitative methods to analyze secondary data of waste generation and achievements in waste handling from the National Waste Management Information System (SIPSN) for the years preceding (2020) and following (2024) the regulation’s implementation. The results show a significant drop in plastic waste from 30.00% to 10.43%, along with decreases in daily and yearly waste amounts. The recycling rate also improved from 0.51 to 0.58, indicating an improvement in waste management, especially through the use of TPS3R. The study recommends stronger public education, better monitoring, and improved facilities to ensure the policy’s success and sustainability in Palu City.
