Online Monitoring Keausan Cutting Tool Menggunakan Audio Signal

Penelitian ini tentang kajian eksperimental on-line monitoring audio signal dengan microphone pada saat proses pembubutan mild steel pada saat cutting tool sebelum aus dan setelah aus dengan tujuan akhir penekanan biaya produksi dan peningkatan kualitas produk. Banyak penelitian dilakukan untuk mengembangkan tool condition monitoring system. Namun pengem­bangan tersebut menemui banyak kesulitan untuk diaplikasikan. Salah satu kendalanya adalah harga sensor yang cukup mahal, sehingga hanya industri besar yang dapat mengaplikasi­kan­nya. Karena itu dibutuhkan alternatif sensor yang terjangkau namun akurat dan powerfull untuk mendeteksi keausan cutting tool. Sinyal diproses menggunakan software komersial Lab View berupa time domain dan frequency domain. Sinyal yang diterima oleh Lab View tersebut difilter sehingga nilai yang muncul merupakan sinyal dari pemotongan bukan noise selain sinyal pemotongan. Dari sinyal pemotongan tersebut dapat diketahui nilai frequency dan amplitude yang muncul ketika cutting tool telah aus. Sebagai hasil penelitian, sinyal tersebut dapat digunakan untuk mendeteksi keausan cutting tool dengan akurat secara on-line dengan harga yang terjangkau

Improving the tensile properties of 3D printed PLA by optimizing the processing parameter

Low-cost desktop 3D printing is now dominated by free and open source self-replicating rapid prototype. However, optimum printing process parameters have not been provided by the manufacturer, since there are several process parameters that need to be optimized to obtain acceptable dimension error and strength properties. This paper aims to present the optimum process parameters for the 3D printing process of Polylactic Acid (PLA) part using Taguchi Method. A specimen standard of ASTM D638 Type IV made of biodegradable polymer, PLA, has been used as a tensile strength test to represent printed part quality. Four printing process parameters: temperatures, extrusion width, infill density and infill pattern have been optimized using Taguchi Methods. Test was carried out to find the highest tensile strength based on the optimum parameter setting and validated them with experiment. The result shows that the tensile strength response was predominantly influenced by infill density followed by nozzle temperature, infill pattern and extrusion width. The optimum level setting was obtained at 75% of infill density (C3), 215oC of nozzle temperature (A3), honeycomb infill (D1) and 0.3 mm of extrusion width (B1).At optimized parameters the tensile strength PLA parts significantly was found of 30.52 MPa at a confidence interval of 95%

Perencanaan Drainase Yang Berwawasan Lingkungan Pada Jalan Tol Semarang – Solo

Semarang – Solo Toll Road is the fastest access between Semarang and Solo. This toll road have been operated gradually in phase I (passing through Penggaron, Gedawang, and Bergas region along 24,75 km) since 2011. The construction of this toll road lead to the change of land use and increased impermeable surface area so that rainfall can't be absorbed into the soil and resulting in increased runoff flow and volume. Increment of the runoff flow and volume if not handled immediately will cause flood. To overcome this, the runoff flow that occurs at this time should be returned to the state before the Semarang – Solo toll road was made. Design of sustainable drainage system is used to decrease runoff flow that increased due to the development of the toll roads. The design of this sustainable drainage system is planned along the 8,475 km from phase I. Sustainable drainage system can be defined as an effort to manage the excess water by artificially percolate it into the ground or flow it into the river without exceeding the capacity of the river. The facilities that offered in this final task is to build infiltration wells in the drainage channels. To restore the flow and runoff volume to pre-construction conditions, it takes 5.682 pieces of infiltration wells. From the analysis and calculation result, the number of infiltration wells that can be installed are 2.581 pieces. That is equal to 45,42 % of the overall that required to overcome the effect of runoff flow of Semarang – Solo toll road development

Analysis of serological data to investigate heterogeneity of malaria transmission: a community-based cross-sectional study in an area conducting elimination in Indonesia.

BACKGROUND: Analysis of anti-malarial antibody responses has the potential to improve characterization of the variation in exposure to infection in low transmission settings, where conventional measures, such as entomological estimates and parasitaemia point prevalence become less sensitive and expensive to measure. This study evaluates the use of sero-epidemiological analysis to investigate heterogeneity of transmission in area conducting elimination in Indonesia. METHODS: Filter paper bloodspots and epidemiological data were collected through a community-based cross-sectional study conducted in two sub-districts in Sabang municipality, Aceh province, Indonesia in 2013. Antibody responses to merozoite surface protein 1 (MSP-119) and apical membrane antigen 1 (AMA-1) for Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax were measured using indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Seroconversion rates (SCR) were estimated by fitting a simple reversible catalytic model to seroprevalence data for each antibody. Spatial analysis was performed using a Normal model (SaTScan v.9.4.2) to identify the clustering of higher values of household antibody responses. Multiple logistic regression was used to investigate factors associated with exposure. RESULTS: 1624 samples were collected from 605 households. Seroprevalence to any P. falciparum antigen was higher than to any P. vivax antigen, 6.9% (95% CI 5.8-8.2) vs 2.0% (95% CI 1.4-2.8). SCR estimates suggest that there was a significant change in P. falciparum transmission with no exposure seen in children under 5 years old. Plasmodium falciparum SCR in over 5 years old was 0.008 (95% CI 0.003-0.017) and 0.012 (95% CI 0.005-0.030) in Sukakarya and Sukajaya sub-districts, respectively. Clusters of exposure were detected for both P. falciparum and P. vivax, most of them in Sukajaya sub-district. Higher age, P. vivax seropositivity and use of long-lasting insecticide-treated bed net (LLIN) were associated with higher P. falciparum exposure. CONCLUSION: Analysis of community-based serological data helps describe the level of transmission, heterogeneity and factors associated with malaria transmission in Sabang. This approach could be an important additional tool for malaria monitoring and surveillance in low transmission settings in Indonesia

Variations in seasonal solar insolation are associated with a history of suicide attempts in bipolar I disorder

Background: Bipolar disorder is associated with circadian disruption and a high risk of suicidal behavior. In a previous exploratory study of patients with bipolar I disorder, we found that a history of suicide attempts was associated with differences between winter and summer levels of solar insolation. The purpose of this study was to confirm this finding using international data from 42% more collection sites and 25% more countries. Methods: Data analyzed were from 71 prior and new collection sites in 40 countries at a wide range of latitudes. The analysis included 4876 patients with bipolar I disorder, 45% more data than previously analyzed. Of the patients, 1496 (30.7%) had a history of suicide attempt. Solar insolation data, the amount of the sun’s electromagnetic energy striking the surface of the earth, was obtained for each onset location (479 locations in 64 countries). Results: This analysis confirmed the results of the exploratory study with the same best model and slightly better statistical significance. There was a significant inverse association between a history of suicide attempts and the ratio of mean winter insolation to mean summer insolation (mean winter insolation/mean summer insolation). This ratio is largest near the equator which has little change in solar insolation over the year, and smallest near the poles where the winter insolation is very small compared to the summer insolation. Other variables in the model associated with an increased risk of suicide attempts were a history of alcohol or substance abuse, female gender, and younger birth cohort. The winter/summer insolation ratio was also replaced with the ratio of minimum mean monthly insolation to the maximum mean monthly insolation to accommodate insolation patterns in the tropics, and nearly identical results were found. All estimated coefficients were significant at p < 0.01. Conclusion: A large change in solar insolation, both between winter and summer and between the minimum and maximum monthly values, may increase the risk of suicide attempts in bipolar I disorder. With frequent circadian rhythm dysfunction and suicidal behavior in bipolar disorder, greater understanding of the optimal roles of daylight and electric lighting in circadian entrainment is needed
