Abstract

FBG is widely developed as a sensor in its application as a sensor, FBG is commonly used either in industry or in clinical applications to measure changes in physical parameters such as pressure, strain, temperature, and corrosion, as well as to monitor the body's heartbeat and breathing. This research uses 2 types of FBG, namely uniform and chirping. The spectrum used is in the range of 1550 nm. Using an optical sensing interrogator as a tool to read wavelength changes as well as input and output with an infrared laser light source. This study aims to analyze the response of FBG sensors to human voice vibrations with variations in the intensity of sound violence. The results showed that at a hardness intensity of 60 dB using a uniform FBG with a reflectivity of 10% experienced a wavelength change of -0.0304 nm, at an intensity of 70 dB 0.0304 nm, and an intensity of 80 dB experienced many wavelength changes 0.06669 nm. The greater the intensity of the sound, the more FBG response shows an increase in wavelength. The largest strain value detected by the uniform FBG with 10% reflectivity is at 70 dB intensity of 5.5579 × 10-5 strain while the lowest value is at 80 dB intensity of 4.4816 × 10-5 strain. The chirping FBG with 10% reflectivity has the highest strain value at 70 dB intensity with a respective strain value of 1.18 × 10-4 strain. Giving sound vibrations such as some of A, I, U, E, and O to FBG is useful for calculating how the transmission peak of FBG shifts due to strain. When the object emits sound vibrations with a certain intensity, the pressure that occurs will be more than the object when it is at rest, so the greater the sound vibration, the greater the strain that occurs.

Abstract

Fluid flowing in a cross-section of a channel follows the law of continuity, namely the mass rate of fluid entering will be the same as the mass rate of fluid leaving. One of the applications of fluid flow is in human blood flow. Blood flow is controlled by the heart which functions to pump blood to and from the heart. The flow of blood entering and leaving the heart is determined by the cross-sectional area of the channel and the speed of blood flow through the heart. The speed of blood flow in the heart consists of two speeds, namely the systolic speed when blood leaves the heart and the diastolic speed when blood enters the heart. So that the volume in the heart can be observed changes over time. By creating a simulation using the MATLAB programming language, the difference between normal heart volume and problematic heart volume can be known. A program called reservoir and cardiac based on graphical user interface was created to determine the volume of fluid in the reservoir at any time and compare the volume of fluid in normal and abnormal hearts concerning time in 1 systole-diastole cycle.

Abstract

The quality of freshwater in peatland areas poses significant concerns for both governmental bodies and local communities. Challenges arise during well drilling activities, where individuals often encounter difficulties in accessing fresh water, either due to its absence or contamination with peat-infused water. Tarai Bangun Village, situated in the Kampar Regency of Riau, represents a critical peatland region warranting thorough investigation, particularly along street of Sarana Utama. Despite lacking social amenities such as markets, the area is equipped with essential facilities like schools and places of worship. This study aims to assess the efficacy of Wenner and Schlumberger configuration modeling in horizontal and vertical soil mapping, thereby facilitating a comprehensive understanding of groundwater distribution and aquifer zoning within the peatland areas under examination. Analysis conducted utilizing Res2DInv software for horizontal modeling revealed significant findings. In track 1, groundwater layers were identified at depths of 6.50 meters and 19 meters, comprising gravel, sandstone, and limestone. Track 2 exhibited an aquifer layer spanning depths from 2.50 meters to 24.9 meters, consisting of alluvium, gravel, and limestone. Furthermore, interpretation of 1D geoelectric vertical model cross-sections using Progress software unveiled additional insights. Path 1 delineated depths of 0.12 meters, 19.30 meters, and beyond 41.28 meters, featuring a lithological composition of sandstone, limestone, and dry gravel. Path 2 showcased depths of 0.14 meters, 9.43 meters, and exceeding 12.02 meters, characterized by dry sand and gravel formations.

Abstract

Metamaterials possess distinct characteristics that make them very suitable for scientific investigation. This phenomenon's hallmark has left scientists perplexed and skeptical. Researchers have conducted numerous studies to explore the composition of one or more metamaterials. This project focused on the development of a linear-sequence metamaterial. Next, we examined the alterations in the optical characteristics of the metamaterial. The utilized frequency range is 0 to 9 GHz. We construct the hexagonal split ring resonance (SRR) metamaterial with a radius of 2.9 mm, consisting of one to four hexagonal SRRs. The findings revealed that the SRR hexagonal metamaterial structure had the highest negative refractive index value, reaching -9.33 in combinations of four hexagonal SRRs.

Abstract

This paper presents a novel approach for tracking the peaks in the FBG spectrum using the Gaussian polynomial method. The proposed algorithm involves preprocessing the FBG signal, detecting the peaks, and fitting the peaks with a Gaussian function. The performance of the algorithm is evaluated using both simulated and experimental FBG spectra. This method involves fitting a Gaussian function to the peak of interest and using the fitted parameters to estimate peak height, width, and location. The method is highly accurate and precise and can provide detailed information about peak shape and position, making it effective for tracking complex or overlapping peaks. However, the method can be computationally intensive and may require careful selection of initial parameters to ensure accurate results. Despite these limitations, the Gaussian polynomial method is a powerful tool for peak tracking and analysis in various application.

Abstract

Climate is one of the basic elements for understanding natural phenomena and the development of civilizations throughout history. Climate change determines most of the modifications of human nature and culture, as human must adapt to changing conditions which are sometimes an important element that can enhance or threaten its existence. This study aims to determine the characteristics of changes in the total electron content (TEC) and determine the radiation has influence to TEC through observing the global positioning system (GPS) in the ionosphere. In addition, the TEC is a measure of ionospheric parameters that affect the radiation that occurs. This study uses secondary data obtained from the Cibinong Spatial Global Station in 2008 – 2012. This research was conducted as a comparison of the TEC and extreme ultraviolet (EUV). The method used is a simple statistical method which seeks the maximum and minimum the TEC and EUV data, as well as the correlation method to relate the coefficient of determination TEC and EUV. As the results the maximum TEC value is 55.895 TECU which occurred in 2012 at 7 unit time (UT) and the minimum TEC value is 1.955 TECU which occurred in 2010 at 22 UT. The correlation ratio between the TEC and EUV is directly proportional, where the higher the value of the TEC, the higher the EUV value. In closing, TEC and EUV are influence by solar activity.

Abstract

The properties of barium titanate (BaTiO3) nanoparticles synthesized with rambutan leaf extract (Nephelium lappaceum L.) were analyzed using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) characterization techniques. Rambutan leaf extract contains bioactive compounds that have the potential to enhance unique physical and chemical properties. This study aims to analyze the properties of the nanoparticles and to characterize the functional groups present in BaTiO3 nanoparticles synthesized using rambutan leaves. The nanoparticle synthesis process involved extraction, followed by the preparation of a BaTiO3 solution and doping. The FTIR spectrum displayed characteristic peaks identifying the presence of functional groups. The results indicated that the region 3500 – 3200 cm-1 corresponds to O–H groups (alcohol and phenolic), the region 1700 – 1600 cm-1 to C=O groups (carbonyl), the region 1600 – 1500 cm-1 to C=C groups (alkene), and the region 1200 – 1000 cm-1 to C–O groups (ether). Each functional group exhibits distinct properties.
