Abstract

This study examines the implementation of Triple Helix collaboration within PT. INALUM’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) program in empowering coastal women engaged in clam shell peeling activities in Kuala Indah Village through the utilization of clam shell waste. The research explores how collaboration among government, industry, and academia can create an innovative and sustainable empowerment ecosystem for coastal communities. The study employs a mixed-methods approach using a case study design integrated with Participatory Action Research (PAR). Quantitative data were collected through surveys involving 100 purposively selected respondents, while qualitative data were obtained from in-depth interviews, field observations, and document analysis. The research process included needs assessment, training on processing clam shell waste into calcium oxide-based products, participatory evaluation, and community mentoring. The findings indicate that the socio-economic conditions of coastal women remain relatively low, characterized by limited educational attainment, unstable daily income averaging IDR 50,000 from middlemen (tauke), and restricted access to empowerment programs. The study further reveals that Triple Helix collaboration contributes to emerging socio-economic transformation through product innovation based on coastal waste processing and strengthened community capacity. The collaboration also facilitated the emergence of five women as local innovation drivers within the community. To ensure long-term sustainability, stronger institutional support from Triple Helix actors, particularly local government, is required so that empowerment initiatives do not remain dependent on external intervention.

Abstract

Malaysia’s urban transformation has entered a critical transitional phase characterized by rapid metropolitan expansion, uneven regional development, and evolving governance challenges. Although the national urbanization rate reached 75.8% in 2024, urban growth remains heavily concentrated within major conurbations, widening disparities between metropolitan centers and secondary cities. This study critically examines Malaysia’s tiered city system as a strategic framework for achieving more balanced, resilient, and sustainable urban development. The research adopts a mixed-method approach integrating spatial analysis, policy review, and expert-based validation. Spatial and demographic data from the Department of Statistics Malaysia (DOSM) and PLANMalaysia’s BMGN database were analyzed alongside key national planning policies, including the Fourth National Physical Plan (RFN4) and the Second National Urbanization Policy (DPN2). The study also incorporates comparative insights from international urban governance models and systems-based urban planning perspectives. The findings reveal persistent structural asymmetries within Malaysia’s urban hierarchy, reflected in fragmented governance, uneven spatial intensity, limited functional specialization, and weak integration between urban tiers. In response, the study proposes the Future-Ready Tiered City Framework (FRTCF), which integrates functional hierarchy, spatial intensity optimization, governance synchronization, digital intelligence systems, and resilience-oriented planning principles. This paper introduces a future-ready, adaptive framework that bridges hierarchical planning and network-based urban governance in the Global South, supporting more inclusive, data-driven, and sustainable urban transformation.

Abstract

Pasar Melati, located in Medan City, functions as a hybrid traditional and second-hand market that plays a significant role in local economic and social activities. However, the market faces several critical issues, including poor spatial organization and circulation, inadequate waste management, limited natural ventilation, insufficient lighting, and a lack of green open spaces, all of which negatively affect user comfort and environmental quality. This study aims to propose a sustainable revitalization design for Pasar Melati by applying green architecture principles. A mixed-method approach was employed, combining field observations, spatial analysis, and semi-structured interviews with architects and market users to identify key problems and user needs. The findings indicate that the market requires improvements in spatial zoning, circulation systems, environmental comfort, and infrastructure management. The proposed design integrates green architecture strategies, including passive cooling through cross ventilation, natural lighting optimization, rainwater harvesting, waste segregation and composting, and improved spatial zoning to support both traditional and second-hand market activities. This study contributes to a green architecture-based design framework for hybrid markets, highlighting their role in sustainable urban development.

Abstract

This study analyzes the thermal behavior of an air-based photovoltaic thermal (PV/T) system integrated with a greenhouse under tropical outdoor conditions in Bandung, Indonesia. The integration extracts excess heat from photovoltaic panels, which typically degrades electrical performance and utilizes it to modify the agricultural microclimate. The experimental setup comprised a PV/T air collector, inlet fans, a connecting outlet duct, type-K thermocouples, DHT sensors, a pyranometer, an anemometer, and a data logger. Measurements were processed at 10-minute intervals from 09:00 to 15:00 across three observation days. The analysis emphasized solar radiation, PV/T component temperatures, mass flow rate, useful heat extraction, system thermal efficiency, and the comparison between the internal greenhouse temperature (DHT5-DHT7) and the external outdoor temperature (DHT8). The empirical results demonstrated an average solar radiation ranging from 676.84 W/m² to 768.65 W/m² across the observation days. The average outlet-inlet air temperature difference ranged consistently from 5.81°C to 6.36°C. Using the measured outlet velocity and duct area, the calculated air mass flow rate was 0.0774 kg/s. Consequently, the system generated an average useful thermal output of 467.85 W and achieved an average thermal efficiency of 25.24%. This effective heat transfer resulted in the internal greenhouse temperature remaining significantly higher than the outdoor ambient temperature by an average margin of 4.05°C to 4.73°C. These findings conclusively indicate that the active PV/T hot air flow, combined with the greenhouse enclosure effect, substantially governed the thermal conditions inside the test chamber, providing a viable thermal management strategy.

Abstract

Solar photovoltaic panels often experience electrical efficiency degradation due to heat accumulation, which can be effectively mitigated using hybrid photovoltaic/thermal (PV/T) systems. While a PV/T system concurrently generates electrical and thermal energy, the scope of this specific study is exclusively limited to evaluating its thermal performance and heat distribution. This study analyzes the thermal performance of an air-based hybrid PV/T solar collector integrated with a greenhouse. Because the system does not utilize phase change materials, the primary variable evaluated is the air mass flow rate, which is controlled by adjusting the number of active fans in both the PV/T collector and the greenhouse exhaust. Experimental data were collected over three days between 09:00 and 15:00 WIB. The testing was simplified into three operational scenarios: maximum PV/T - maximum greenhouse, maximum PV/T - minimum greenhouse, and minimum PV/T - minimum greenhouse. The numerical air velocities recorded were 3.70 m/s for the maximum PV/T setup and 2.35 m/s for the minimum. Concurrently, greenhouse exhaust velocities were 3.18 m/s (10 fans) and 2.03 m/s (6 fans). Findings revealed that the highest average useful heat reached 368.28 W during the maximum PV/T-minimum greenhouse scenario, highlighting optimal heat accumulation. Conversely, the highest average thermal efficiency was achieved in the maximum PV/T-maximum greenhouse scenario at 25.30%, demonstrating better air circulation and thermal stability. Ultimately, the results indicate that PV/T air velocity strongly governs heat extraction from the panels, whereas greenhouse exhaust velocity dictates heat retention inside the chamber.

Abstract

The performance of photovoltaic (PV) panels decreases significantly as operating temperatures rise. To mitigate this, forced-air cooling is often employed, but fluctuating outdoor solar radiation makes the integration of phase change materials (PCM) essential for effective heat regulation. This study experimentally evaluates the thermal performance of an air-based photovoltaic thermal (PV/T) system integrated with a zigzag arrangement of aluminum containers filled with paraffin wax PCM. The zigzag geometry was specifically designed to extend the contact path for forced convective heat transfer. Three PCM mass variations (150 g, 200 g, and 250 g) were tested outdoors in an urban environment from 09:00 to 15:00 WIB. The system's thermal response was monitored using K-type thermocouples, DHT22 sensors, and a solar power meter to record radiation intensity, component temperatures, and inlet-outlet air temperature differences (ΔT). Experimental results showed average solar irradiance values of 817.16, 643.76, and 606.05 W/m² for the 150 g, 200 g, and 250 g tests, respectively. The PV backsheet recorded the highest average temperatures across all setups, reaching up to 57.88°C. Notably, the 200 g PCM configuration demonstrated the optimal thermal response, achieving the highest peak PCM ΔT of 10.98°C at 13:00. Furthermore, the system yielded average positive air ΔT values of 6.37°C, 5.00°C, and 4.83°C for the respective masses. These findings confirm that forced air flow effectively removes heat from the zigzag PCM section, highlighting that selecting an appropriate PCM mass is critical for balancing heat absorption and continuous convective removal under dynamic field conditions.

Abstract

The increasing proportion of older people in urban areas highlights the importance of developing an inclusive transportation system that ensures accessibility, independence, and social participation. Although age-friendly city concepts and programs have been widely promoted, public transportation use among older people has not yet been adequately studied in Surakarta City. This study has two objectives: (1) to identify the level of public transportation utilization among older people in Surakarta City, and (2) to examine the associated factors. A quantitative approach was used, with data collected through a questionnaire survey of 100 older adult residents of Surakarta City. This study used stratified proportional random sampling. Descriptive statistical analysis, the Chi-Square test, and Spearman Rank correlation were used to analyze the data. The results indicate that public transportation utilization among the older adults in Surakarta City remains relatively low. This pattern may be linked to several factors with significant correlations, such as age, distance to public transport stops, waiting time, health conditions, and private vehicle ownership. These factors indicate that barriers to elderly mobility are not only physical but also related to demographic aspects, physical condition, perceived comfort, spatial accessibility, and preferences for transportation modes. This study highlights the need for efforts to realize inclusive mobility in Surakarta City by considering the characteristics and specific needs of elderly as public transportation users.

Abstract

The Curug–Walahar weir system plays a strategic role in raw water allocation in Karawang Regency because it supports drinking water supply, irrigation, and industrial activities. This study evaluates dependable flow availability to assess the reliability of raw water supply for the drinking water supply system. Daily discharge data from 2015 to 2025 were analysed for five main flow sections using descriptive statistics, monthly discharge patterns, and Flow Duration Curve (FDC) analysis. Dependable flows were determined using Q80 and Q90 and were compared with raw water demand under two scenarios: existing water treatment plant operational capacity and projected raw water demand based on service areas up to 2044. The results show that Citarum River flow from Curug Weir (NTC-CUR) and Citarum overflow (CIT-O) have high discharge variability. In contrast, West Tarum Canal (WTC), East Tarum Canal (ETC), and North Tarum Canal (NTC-WAL) show relatively stable flow characteristics due to regulated canal operation. The existing dependable flow remains sufficient to meet the operational capacity of water treatment plants in all analysed canal sections. Future demand projections also indicate that raw water demand up to 2044 remains below the available Q80 and Q90 values. These findings suggest that the FDC-based dependable flow approach can provide an initial basis for evaluating raw water reliability in multi-use regulated canal systems, particularly for supporting water allocation planning under low-flow conditions.

Abstract

This study examines how community-based homestays in Buluh Duri Tourism Village, Serdang Bedagai Regency, meet Indonesia’s homestay business standards and what the observed compliance gaps imply for sustainable rural tourism development. Rather than treating sustainability as a direct regulatory outcome, the study uses regulatory compliance as an analytical entry point to examine the institutional and governance conditions that shape implementation in a developing rural destination. The study used a qualitative bounded case-study design and examined two homestays operating in the village. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, non-participant observation, document review, and limited tourist feedback, triangulating across sources. Compliance was assessed against the product, service, and management requirements specified in Ministerial Regulation of Tourism and Creative Economy No. 9 of 2014; environmental sustainability was examined as a complementary analytical dimension rather than as a formal regulatory category. The findings show uneven and partial implementation. Basic accommodation and hospitality practices were present, but gaps were observed in facility adequacy, service standardization, administrative routines, emergency preparedness, and environmentally responsible practices. The cross-case comparison suggests that compliance differences are associated with financial capacity, technical knowledge, training exposure, and the strength of institutional support. The study contributes a context-sensitive compliance perspective to the homestay and community-based tourism literature by showing how regulatory requirements interact with local implementation capacity. The findings support phased capacity building, technical assistance, and collaborative village-level governance rather than assuming that uniform standards can be implemented independently of local resources and institutional conditions.

Abstract

Sustainable urban mobility is defined not only by efficiency but by its resilience to catastrophic disruptions. The coastal district of Palabuhanratu, Indonesia, faces a critical vulnerability where its transportation network is bisected by major rivers, posing a severe risk during a potential Megathrust Tsunami (Mw 8.8). This study uses digital technologies for urban infrastructure analysis to evaluate transport system failure modes. Utilizing a quantitative approach based on Graph Theory and Anisotropic Least-Cost Distance (LCD) simulation, we stress-tested the road network under a specific "Bridge Failure Scenario" within a strict 22-minute evacuation window. The simulation reveals "Spatial Separation," where the collapse of the Cimandiri and Citarik bridges isolates 19 villages, creating a systemic disconnection from safe zones. The results quantify a critical failure in the transport and mobility system, showing a 23–38 minute time deficit for the isolated population. Furthermore, the analysis reveals extreme inequality in vehicular mobility, with the Gini Coefficient spiking to 0.995, indicating a near-total collapse of motorized access relative to pedestrian modes. The study concludes that the current urban infrastructure lacks the necessary redundancy. To support sustainable disaster management, we recommend integrating digital twin simulations into spatial planning and prioritizing decentralized tactical redundancy to strengthen coastal mobility systems' resilience.
