Teen-Size Humanoid “FLoW†Complete Analytical Kinematics
Humanoid research in Indonesia is quite a lot, but in reality only limited in kid-size proportional size, while for the Teen-Size is still rare. Research on the Teen-Size Humanoid robot requires more joints to be able to perform the movement compared to the size of Kid-Size, therefore required more complex modeling to determine the movement. With complete kinematics anlysis, the movement of the robot can be solved. With kinematic forward-invers, researchers can determine the movement of robots by controlling the motor parts that function as a joint on the robot. In this study, the modeling uses D-H parameter, because this modeling has been widely used, besides the calculation can be solved by computing. And then for the simulation can be done with V-REP software. Forward-invers kinematics can be implemented on the PID algorithm, in order to generate speed on the motor that can form an angle on the motor to make the movement. The result of this research is to obtain equation of matrix transformation from all body parts of robot. With the creation of this Humanoid Teen-Size robot, it is hoped that the research on Humanoid robot in Indonesia will be increasingly diverse and increasing, and can be used as a support and reference in the development of Humanoid Teen-Size next
The Enhancement of 3 MHz Ultrasonic Echo Signal for Conversion Curve Development for Acoustic Impedance Estimation by Using Wavelet Transform
Ultrasonic technology has already been used for many applications. Most of them are mainly used for object measurement. Some techniques have been widely applied to particular measurement by utilizing a very specific component. In this research, the previous technique to develop a conversion curve to obtain the acoustic impedance of the target is adopted. Then, we propose a 3 MHz concave shaped ultrasonic transducer for measuring liquids and a confirmation is needed to confirm if the system used is correct. Therefore, several saline solutions which property has been known are used. A low voltage of 10 Volt pulse is used to trigger the transducer. The ultrasonic wave is then transmitted through the multilayered mediums, which is pure water, clear acrylic, and the target. The echo from the interface between the acrylic and the target is then received by the same transducer. Some parameters such as peak and RMS are used to develop the conversion curve. A peak detection and comparison between the original echo and the processed one by using Wavelet transform (UWT and DWT) is then performed. Some analysis of the echo signal by using multiresolution and time-frequency analysis is also proposed. The result obtained from the measurement is then compared to that from the theoretical calculation. Based on the result, in terms of developing the calibration graph, only the RMS value (UWT) which has the closest trend to the result of the calculation, with the mean percentage error of 0.65512%, which is the smallest value among all parameters
Stator Flux Estimator Using Feed-Forward Neural Network for Evaluating Hysteresis Loss Curve in Three Phase Induction Motor
The operation of induction motors with high performance contributes significantly to the global energy savings but hysteresis loss is one of the factors causing decreased performance. Stator flux density (B) and magnetic field intensity (H) must be plotted to know hysteresis loss quantity. Unfortunately, since the rotor rotates in time series, the stator flux density is unmeasurable quantities, it’s hard to direct sensored this properties because of limited airgap space and costly to install additional instrument. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the hysteresis loss quantity in induction motor using a novel method of multilayer perceptron feed forward neural network as stator flux estimator and magnetizing current model as magnetic field intensity properties. This method is effective, because it’s non-destructive method, without an additional instrument, low cost, and suitable for real-time motor drive systems. The FFNN estimator response is satisfying because accurately estimate stator flux density for evaluating hysteresis loss quantity including its magnitude and phase angle. By using the proposed model, the stator flux density and magnetizing current can be plotted become hysteresis loss curve. The performance of flux response, speed response, torque response and error deviation of stator flux estimator has been presented, investigated, compared and verified in Simulink Matlab
Arrhythmia Classification Using Long Short-Term Memory with Adaptive Learning Rate
Arrhythmia is a heartbeat abnormality that can be harmless or harmful. It depends on what kind of arrhythmia that the patient suffers. People with arrhythmia usually feel the same physical symptoms but every arrhythmia requires different treatments. For arrhythmia detection, the cardiologist uses electrocardiogram that represents the cardiac electrical activity. And it is a kind of sequential data with high complexity. So the high performance classification method to help the arrhythmia detection is needed. In this paper, Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) method was used to classify the arrhythmia. The performance was boosted by using AdaDelta as the adaptive learning rate method. As a comparison, it was compared to LSTM without adaptive learning rate. And the best result that showed high accuracy was obtained by using LSTM with AdaDelta. The correct classification rate was 98% for train data and 97% for test data
Analysis on Handwritten Document Text to Identify Human Personality Characteristics by Using Preprocessing and Feature Extraction
It is important that a company uses the right means to recruit employees with certain personal characteristics as needed. Nowadays, the techniques to respond to psychological tests on people’s characteristics have been widely understood by most job applicants, so that it is difficult to know their true personality. Graphology is a way to identify a person’s characteristics by analyzing the handwriting from the document text made by the applicant. The two types of text document of each applicant are obtained from people of different ages and different writing times. The methods of graphology used in this research for identifying the handwriting are preprocessing and feature extraction. The preprocessing method uses projection integrals, shear transformations, and template matching. While the feature extraction process applies 10 features, they are, margins, line spacing, space between words, size of writing, style, zone, direction of writing, slope of writing, width of writing and shape of the letter. The result of the experiment from five writers shows the accuracy of writing identification equals to 82%, while personality identification equals to 67,4%

Improve of Water Flow Acceleration in Darrieus Turbine Using Diffuser NACA 11414 2,5R
Indonesia has potential hydro energy around 70000 MW which has been used around 6% (3529 MW). One of the development constraint is the stream velocity in Indonesian rivers is relative low. It causes bigger turbine dimension needed to achieve power which is desired.  An alternative is to utilize adiffuser, which is a device that could accelerate the fluid flow in order to give more energy to the turbine. Based on contiunity equation, diffuser can increase velocity by ratio of cross-section area. It can be  used to achieve expected power as long as it is not too much reduce the pressure. This research is conducted in 0.566 m/s of water velocity with Darrieus turbine with hydrofoil NACA 0018, height 0.74 m, radius 0.17 m, chord 0.11 m and 3 number of blades. The performance (Cp) was determined by numerical and experimental without and with diffuser NACA 11414 2.5R for variation of angle 8o, 16o, and 20o. Both of those result showed that the best performance of NACA 11414 2,5R is on angle 16o which numerically has stream velocity 0,91 m/s of water and 7 times of Cp, while experimentally has 0,891 m/s of water velocity and 3,16 times of Cp. This diffuser could improve the power generated by the turbine and increase the turbine efficiency
Dynamic Sleep Scheduling on Air Pollution Levels Monitoring with Wireless Sensor Network
Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) can be applied for Air Pollution Level Monitoring System that have been determined by the Environmental Impact Management Agency which is PM10, SO2, O3, NO2 and CO. In WSN, node system is constrained to a limited power supply, so that the node system has a lifetime. To doing lifetime maximization, power management scheme is required and sensor nodes should use energy efficiently. This paper proposes dynamic sleep scheduling using Time Category-Fuzzy Logic (Time-Fuzzy) Scheduling as a reference for calculating time interval for sleep and activated node system to support power management scheme. This research contributed in power management design to be applied to the WSN system to reduce energy expenditure. From the test result in real hardware node system, it can be seen that Time-Fuzzy Scheduling is better in terms of using the battery and it is better in terms of energy consumption too because it is more efficient 51.85% when it is compared with Fuzzy Scheduling, it is more efficient 68.81% when it is compared with Standard Scheduling and it is more efficient 85.03% when compared with No Scheduling
Application of Sliding Mode Control in Indirect Field Oriented Control (IFOC) for Model Based Controller
Indirect Field Oriented Control (IFOC) is one of the vector control methods that can be applied to induction motor in the industrial world rather than Direct Field Oriented Control (DFOC) because of the flux is obtained from the formulation. However, IFOC can not guarantee the robustness and stability of the systems. Stability analysis such as Lyapunov Stability Theory can be used to make the system stable but not the robustness. Model based controller that can guarantee the stability and robustness such as sliding mode control (SMC) and fuzzy needs to be added in IFOC system to achieve proportional response system. Robust current regulator using sliding mode control was designed in this paper from state space model for model based controller. In transient response and under disturbance SMC shows better performance than PID in rising time and robustness at rotor speed and stator current
Simulation of Water Allocation Optimization Problem
Pollution prevention is primarily stimulated by economics, legislation, liability concerns, and the enhanced environmental benefit of managing waste at source. Chemical process industries consume a huge amount of water. Consequently, wastewater streams from such industries which contain various contaminants may create environmental problem. The increasing cost of fresh water supply and wastewater treatment has encouraged process industries to minimize fresh water consumption and waste water generation. This paper presents a formulation of water allocation problem (WAP) in order to minimize fresh water consumption in multi contaminant mass exchanger network. The approach is based on mass balance equation within the system being studied. The problem were then solved by using Matlab Optimization Toolbox
