Abstract

This study explores an innovation based on IoT and biomass energy for the efficient production of processed food, specifically crackers. Biomass energy, derived from plant materials, is utilized to generate heat in the processing room. This innovation significantly reduces the processing time for crackers to just 2 hours, compared to the conventional method that requires 2 days of sun-drying. The biomass energy source used in this study includes rambutan tree trunks, which not only provide efficient heat but also impart a pleasant aroma to the final product. The research employs a direct experimental method to design and implement this technology in industrial settings. The primary ingredient for the crackers is cassava, mixed with fish, shrimp, and jengkol. The heat energy generated from the combustion of rambutan tree trunks is effectively utilized in the combustion chamber. Observations indicate that the crackers produced are of high quality, with appealing color and fragrance, making them suitable for market distribution. This innovation demonstrates the potential of combining IoT and biomass energy to enhance food processing efficiency and product quality.

Abstract

Identification of oil palm fresh fruit bunches (FFB) based on variety is a crucial step in sorting and grading FFBs to produce good-quality crude palm oil (CPO). Most palm oil mills receive two varieties of FFBs at the reception stations, Tenera and Dura, and only a certain percentage of the Dura variety is allowed in a transporting truck. The conventional identification is destructive, cutting several fruits off an FFB bunch and checking for fruit Mesocarp and shell thickness. The method suffers a high increase in free fatty acid (FFA) content. This study is a preliminary study using computer vision and image processing to differentiate the two varieties based on their physical properties. The samples consisted of 20 Dura and 20 Tenera FFBs, 10 unripe and 10 ripe FFBs. The FFB images were acquired for both front and back sides using a color CMOS camera. ImageJ software was used to obtain the number of outer fruits and bunch surface area, used to calculate fruitlet density. Both varieties are also compared based on mass and by red, green, and blue (RGB) intensities. The results were compared to the results measured manually. The results showed that the Tenera variety exhibited higher fruit density, fruitlet count, RGB intensity compared to the Dura variety. Both varieties have higher correlations between fruit density and their masses. These results show the potential of computer vision and image processing methods to differentiate Tenera and Dura varieties, used for sorting and grading oil palm FFBs.

Abstract

A Classification of Quranic verses based on topics is one of the efforts to facilitate understanding and searching for information in the holy book, especially for non-Arabic readers. This study aims to test and compare the performance of three text classification methods, namely K-nearest neighbors (KNN), support vector machine (SVM), and random forest (RF), in grouping translated Quranic verses into 15 topic classes, such as Islamic arkanul, faith, the Quran, science and its branches, charity, da'wah, jihad, human and social relations, and others. The dataset used is the English translation of the Quran with full preprocessing and an 80:20 data split for training and testing. The evaluation was carried out using accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score metrics. The results show that RF achieved the best performance with an average F1-score of 58.48% and testing accuracy of 90.81%. KNN followed with an F1-score of 54.07% and the highest testing accuracy of 92.05%, while SVM produced the lowest F1-score at 50.76% and accuracy of 88.20%. The RF demonstrates a more balanced ability in recognizing all classes, KNN excels in overall accuracy, and SVM performs less optimally in this classification task. This research is expected to serve as a foundation for developing a more intelligent and contextual topic-based verse classification system.

Abstract

Unlicensed gold mining activities are still a polemic in the people of Kuantan Singingi Regency, starting from 2006 until now. Kuantan River water has a turbidity of 72.42 NTU, a concentration of 0.0325 mg/l Hg, and a bacterial count of 410 CFU/100 ml. Eventhough, Kuantan River water is the main source of raw water used by UPTD PAB with 3,727 active customers. Until now, water treatment at UPTD still uses alum as a purifier without laboratory-scale analysis. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effectiveness of ACCOALTIC's working principles in the Kuantan River raw water purification process and explain the results of the development of ACCOALTIC bottom loading dispenser. The study was conducted in quantitative experiments. ACCOALTIC uses the working principle of 3 filtration tanks, namely purification & coagulation, adsorption, and disinfection. Test parameters using a turbidity meter get an average value of 5 tests per sample after treatment of 0.1 NTU. The decline occurs due to the nature of Al2(SO4)3 contains aluminum sulfate. In the XRD test of Hg absorption, there is a peak in the X-ray intensity coordinates (a.u.) which indicates the presence of Hg. SSA testing found a decrease in Hg concentration by 77.21%. The number of E. coli bacteria was 410 (before treatment) and 2 (before treatment) in CTU/100 mL units, hence the % value decreased by 99.51% while the development of ACCOALTIC is carried out in the form of bottom loading dispensers.

Abstract

Scurrula ferruginea (Benalu) is a hemiparasitic plant with potential as a raw material for traditional medicine due to its high flavonoid content. The concentration of flavonoids is substantially determined by the specific drying technique applied. Studies investigating the use of the stir-frying method remain limited, and there is no standardized protocol has yet been established to recommend an appropriate method for preserving the total flavonoid content in S. ferruginea leaves. This study aims to compare the total flavonoid content (TFC) in ethanol extracts of Benalu leaves on the Jengkol dried using three different methods: air-drying, oven-drying, and stir-frying drying. All samples were subsequently powdered and subjected to maceration using ethanol solvent, followed by analysis of their total flavonoid content using spectrophotometry UV-Vis at maximum wavelength at 431 nm. Statistical analysis of one-way ANOVA showed that different drying methods generated significant effects on TFC level of Benalu leaves extracts with significance value = 0.001 (p-value <= 0.05). The results indicated that air-drying yielded the highest flavonoid content with 7.37 ppm, followed by stir-frying (4.93 ppm) and oven-drying (2.88 ppm). These findings highlight the critical importance of selecting an appropriate drying method to preserve flavonoid levels, thereby enhancing the pharmacological efficacy and quality of herbal products derived from S. ferruginea leaves.

Abstract

This study presents the design and full-wave simulation of a diamond-shaped metamaterial absorber configured in a 4×4 array for applications in radar cross section reduction (RCSR). The structure was modeled on an FR-4 substrate with a copper patch and metallic ground plane to achieve high absorption across the ultra-wideband (UWB) frequency range of 0.09 – 10 GHz. Simulations were conducted using CST Studio Suite. Key radar-related performance parameters including reflection (S11), transmission (S21), and absorption were analyzed. Results indicate that the absorber achieves extremely low reflection values (return loss up to -85 dB), near-zero transmission due to the ground plane, and absorption exceeding 80% in targeted radar bands. These findings demonstrate the high potential of diamond-shaped metamaterial absorbers for stealth applications and electromagnetic wave attenuation in modern radar systems.

Abstract

Heart rate measurement based on electrocardiogram (ECG) signals is commonly performed through traditional observation techniques, which can be less effective especially when restricted to short-range. Such limitations may hinder the detection of subtle variations in cardiac rhythm, potentially resulting in the omission of critical time-dependent physiological information. To overcome this challenge, a computational approach is introduced to enhance both the accuracy and consistency of heart rate estimation. The fast Fourier transform (FFT) is applied to convert ECG signals from the time domain to the frequency domain, allowing for accurate identification of dominant spectral components associated with cardiac activity. This transformation also enables the evaluation of long-range, which is often impractical to analyze using time-domain methods alone. A dataset consisting of ten ECG signal recordings from subjects with normal heart function was utilized. Waveform images were digitized using PlotDigitizer software and further processed in MATLAB through spectral transformation. The resulting frequency components were accurately identified, with a mean absolute error of less than 0.2% when compared to reference values. These results demonstrate the effectiveness of a frequency-based analytical approach in improving measurement precision and promoting efficiency in digital cardiac monitoring. The findings contribute to the development of advanced biomedical signal processing techniques.

Abstract

This paper investigates the impact of angular misalignment on splice loss across five distinct types of single-mode fiber (SMF), a critical factor in optical fiber network reliability. We regularly analyze splice loss at misalignment angles ranging from 0.1° to 1°, evaluating performance at both 1310 nm and 1550 nm wavelengths. Our findings consistently show that increasing angular misalignment directly causes a significant increase in coupling loss, with the SMF-28e+ showing the lowest susceptibility, recording losses of 0.7299 dB at 1310 nm and 0.672 dB at 1550 nm for a 1° angle. These detailed insights into the angular misalignment tolerance of various SMF types is crucial for enhancing the design and deployment of robust and efficient optical fiber networks, ultimately minimizing signal degradation and improving overall network performance.

Abstract

The phenomenon of refractive index difference between two orthogonal polarization modes in optical fibers, plays as an important role in optics transmission systems and precision sensors. This study aims to analyze the effect of wavelength on the birefringence performance of five types of single-mode optical fibers, namely SMF-28, SMF-28e, SMF-28e+, SMF-28e+LL, and SMF-28 ULL. Simulations were performed using OptiFiber software with wavelengths varying from 1000 nm to 1550 nm. The results show that the birefringence value decreases significantly as the wavelength increases, in line with the propagation of the optical field into the sleeve which reduces the refractive index difference between the two orthogonal modes. The highest birefringence value was recorded for SMF-28e+ at 9.28 rad/m 1000 nm, while the lowest value was 5.79 rad/m 1550 nm. In addition, external effects such as fiber curvature showed a contribution to the change in birefringence, which is relevant for the design of precision optical systems. These findings confirm the importance of controlling wavelength parameters and geometric structure in optimizing fiber birefringence performance for polarization- based optical communication and sensor applications. Suggestions for further research is to evaluate the effect of temperature, external pressure, and voltage on birefringence in various other types of optics fibers.
