Abstract

This research aims to design and test the effectiveness of the Foot Reflection-Relaxation Stimulator (FRRS), which combines electrical and magnetic stimulation as a reflexology therapy method to reduce pain caused by fatigue. FRRS is designed to stimulate reflex points in the feet by applying principles of physics such as static magnetic fields and Lorentz force, which are expected to enhance blood circulation and relax tense muscles. The testing was conducted on 25 healthy male participants who experienced leg fatigue after traveling a distance of 20 km. Pain levels were measured using the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) before and after treatment with FRRS. The results showed a significant decrease in pain scale, from an average of 7 before treatment to 3.12 after treatment. The use of FRRS has proven effective in reducing pain due to fatigue in the legs, which is believed to be due to increased blood circulation and muscle relaxation. Thus, FRRS can be a practical and efficient solution to improve the quality of life for individuals who often experience fatigue and pain in their legs.

Abstract

The current study examines the catalytic activity of Cu2+-exchanged cation montmorillonite K-10 (MMT K-10) catalyst, which synthesized by hydrothermal method. X-ray fluoressence (XRF) and X-ray Diffraction (XRD) were used for characterizing the newly synthesis catalyst. The effect of thermal activation on the support of MMT K-10 with a modifier Cu investigated on its catalytic performance for conversion waste cooking oil to produce fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) by transesterification reaction. Synthesis biodiesel was further characterized by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectroscopy (GC-MS). The biodiesel was obtained at transesterification reaction conditions: 3% (w/w) catalyst loading, molar ratio of oil to methanol = 1:10, and 3 h of reaction time at 90°C. The yield of FAME of WCO for MMT K-10, MMT K-10/Cu2+, MMT K-10 (activation 110°C)/Cu2+, MMT K-10 (activation 300°C)/Cu2+ catalysts were the 9,47%; 10,36%; 10,41%; and 12,01% of FAME, respectively. This study exhibites that the activation of thermal on the support MMT K-10 which modified by Cu2+ leads to reduction of the crystal size. The decreasing crystal size contributes on increasing catalytic performance of the heterogeneous catalyst.

Abstract

The investigation of the slip plane in the landslide-prone area around Taman Panorama, Kayu Kubu, Bukittinggi City has been conducted using the 2-dimensional resistivity geoelectric method with Wenner configuration.The study was carried out on hills with a slope of 40°. Data collection was conducted along three tracks with lengths of 80, 70, and 70 meters respectively. Data processing was done using Res2dinv software to display a 2-dimensional image of subsurface layers based on the measured resistivity values in the field. The interpretation of the data results showed the presence of slippage zones along each track in the form of an volcanic breccia rock layer. For line AB, resistivity values range from 250 to 813 Ωm at depths of 3.75 - 15.9 meters. Line CD has resistivity values ranging from 137 to 375 Ωm at depths of 3.75 - 15.9 meters, while track EF had resistivity values range from 183 – 287 Ωm at depths of 6.38 – 9.25 meters. Based on the depths, the identified slip surfaces are categorized as quite deep, thus this area is classified as a landslide-prone zone.

Abstract

This research aims to determine the effect of the size and material of spherical nanoparticle dimers placed on the back surface layer of CIGS solar cells on the resulting current density. This research was conducted computationally using the finite difference time domain (FDTD) method. Three materials were studied: silver, gold, and aluminium. For each material, nanoparticle diameter was varied. The calculation results show that the short circuit current density (Jsc) increases with the nanoparticle diameter. Silver nanoparticle dimers showed the highest increase in Jsc. A sphere diameter of 60 nm produces the highest Jsc. The increase in the Jsc of CIGS solar cells is due to the back reflection of light into the active layer of solar cells by nanoparticles and the near field excitation around nanoparticle dimers. The significant increase in Jsc shows the potential for utilizing silver nanoparticle dimers to increase the efficiency of CIGS solar cells.

Abstract

Utilization of various radioactive sources in Indonesia, including nuclear fuel, nuclear waste, and radioactive minerals, has significantly increased to support research, industry, and healthcare services. This usage necessitates an evaluation of environmental impacts, particularly the increase in background radiation in the context of radioecology. Radionuclides like cesium, which are highly soluble in water, can be released into marine waters through leaks from nuclear power plants, radioactive waste, and military weapons tests, potentially harming marine ecosystems and the food chain. Therefore, periodic monitoring of underwater radiation exposure is crucial. This study aims to develop a gamma-ray radiation dose monitoring system underwater using a wireless Geiger-muller counter and LabVIEW-based interface. The system comprises a Geiger-muller counter for measuring radiation doses, an nRF24l01+ module for data transmission, and a LabVIEW application as the display panel. Testing was conducted by submerging a radioactive cesium source into a water tank with varying distances and depths. Radiation data were measured by the Geiger-muller counter, transmitted via the nRF24l01+ to the receiver, processed by Arduino Uno, and displayed in LabVIEW. The LabVIEW application also provides alerts if the dose exceeds the threshold and records the dose values. Test results showed the lowest measurement success rate of 17% at position 7 and the highest of 30% at position 1.

Abstract

Rejang Lebong is a tourism area in Bengkulu Province, Indonesia, which is located close to the active Ketaun and Musi faults which are segments of the Sumatran Fault System (SFS). This research uses 3-D analysis and modeling of Earth's gravity anomaly inversion data obtained from the high-resolution Global Gravity Model (GGM). The aim of this research is to identify subsurface geological structures such as faults, active volcanoes and sedimentary layers that have the potential to pose a danger to the Curup Rejang Lebong tourism area. The Complete Bouguer Anomaly (CBA) in the study area was calculated using modern terrain correction methods that utilize full-scale topographic gravity data from the SRTM2gravity model. Separating regional and residual anomalies using an upward continuity filter with a height of 10 km. The 3D inversion model of satellite gravity data has succeeded in modeling the subsurface of the Rejang Lebong district where the presence of the Mount Kaba magma chamber is characterized by low negative density contrast, and the Ketaun and Musi fault lines are characterized by low and high contrast boundaries which have the potential to cause natural disasters in the region. Analysis of gravity anomalies and rock density contrasts provided results that are in line with the regional geological conditions of the Bengkulu region, including the pattern of intrusion of igneous rocks with high density contrasts and sedimentary rocks with lower density contrasts.

Abstract

Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis (PSHA) is a method to estimate earthquake risk in a region by considering uncertainties in earthquake sources and local ground response. To estimate earthquake risk and seismic impacts in a region, an in-depth analysis of seismicity parameters, such as a-value and b-value, as well as maximum ground acceleration (PGA), is required. This study aims to analyze changes in seismicity parameters, particularly b-value (rock fragility) and a-value (seismicity index) in the Maluku region before and after the 2019 Ambon earthquake. This study also aims to see whether there are changes in Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) values for the Maluku region after the 2019 Ambon Earthquake. The seismic data used in this study comes from the USGS catalogue recorded from 2000 to 2022. The results of this study show that the b-Value of the Maluku region as a whole before the earthquake was 1.15 and decreased to 0.91 after the 2019 Ambon earthquake. However, the a-Value and b-Value for each seismic source zone increased. In addition, the PGA value for the Maluku region is 1.25g. These results provide the conclusion that the Maluku region is included in the zone with medium seismic hazard with the level of earthquake damage included in category VI of the MMI scale.

Abstract

Activated carbon from corn stalks (Zea mays L.) has been successfully synthesized by the dehydration method and used as a supercapacitor electrode. Corn stalk powder was dehydrated with 1 MH2SO4 and activated with 5 M NaOH at a carbon and activator mass ratio of 1:4 with a heating temperature of 800°C and an N2 gas heating rate of 10°C/minute for 1 hour. SEM characterization results show that heterogeneous pores have formed on the surface of corn stalk-activated carbon. EDX results showed a carbon percentage of 54.82%; this data is supported by FTIR results, which show several functional groups containing C and O atoms on the surface of activated carbon. Based on desorption adsorption isotherm analysis, the activated carbon shows H4 type with a specific surface area of 117.973m2/g, average pore diameter of 1.730 nm and total pore volume of 0.1021 cm3/g. Measurement of the electrochemical properties of corn stalk activated carbon with a three-electrode system and 3 M KOH electrolyte showed a specific capacitance value of 133.9 F/g, power density 225.2 W/kg and energy density 0.863 Wh/kg. The synthesis of activated carbon through the dehydration method offers advantages in terms of simplicity in preparation, low cost, shorter synthesis time and being environmentally friendly.
