PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS OF PSO-PD CONTROLLER IN CONTROLING THE RIGID GANTRY CRANE SYSTEM
Full text linkKarya tulis ini membahas tentang algoritma particle swarm optimization (PSO) untuk mengoptimalkan penguat pengendali PD yang dinamakan pengendali PSO-PD. Efektivitas algoritma pengendali yang diusulkan diuji dengan menggunakan fungsi step dan dibandingkan dengan pengendali PD berbasis Zigler-Nichols (ZN-PD). Hasil simulasi yang didapatkan menunjukkan bahwa pengendali PSO-PD menghasilkan waktu naik dan waktu puncak yang lebih lambat dibandingkan dengan pengendali ZN-PD, tetapi memiliki waktu tunak yang lebih cepat dan nilai overshoot yang kecil di bawah trayektori yang didefinisikan.Kata kunci: Sistem gantry crane, PSO, Gain PD, Sudut ayunan AbstractThis paper presents the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm to optimize the gains of the PD controller to form what so-called the particle swarm optimization (PSO-PD) controller. The effectiveness of the proposed control algorithm is tested under constant step function and compared with Ziegler-Nichols (ZN-PD) controller. Simulation results show that proposed controller has slower rise time and peak time than ZN-PD controller as well as small overshoot under the predefined trajectories
PEDOTRANSFER FUNCTIONS FOR DIGITAL SOIL MAPPING IN TROPICAL REGION: A CASE STUDY OF DIGITAL SOIL MAPPING OF SOIL CARBON AND NITROGEN IN WEST JAVA, INDONESIA
Full text linkPedotransfer functions (PTFs) for the tropical region were developed to model topsoil total carbon and nitrogen variations, by using input parameters of Digital Elevation Model—DEM, Normalized Difference Vegetation Index—NDVI and bioclimatic variables. Puerto Rico dataset was used to develop the model, while West Java, Indonesia was chosen for the model application. Using 22 input parameters derived from the three soil forming factors (relief, vegetation, and climate), the PTF could explain 71% and 66% of the soil total carbon and nitrogen variations, while comparable results were obtained from reduced input parameters (RMSE 3.12% and 0.05% for topsoil total carbon and nitrogen, respectively). This result suggests that application of PTFs to model soil properties variation, especially in the tropical region, could be used to generate reliable pre-assessment information to support decision making in the land productivity improvement plan
CORAL REEFS
Full text linkCoastal development in Ambon Bay led to increased sedimentation and pollutant into the waters. It effects on organism in Ambon Bay, including coral reefs. This study aims to look the condition of coral reef. The study method is Line Intercept Transect (LIT) in eight observasion stations, two stations in the inner bay and six stations in the outside bay. The results showed there has been a decline in coral cover in the area that has development activities and high antropogenic activity like Hative Besar, Poka, Kota Jawa, Halong, and Hunuth station. As for areas that have lesser development activity and antropogenic activity, the condition of coral cover increased as happened at Lilibooy, Eri, and Batu Capeu stations. Stations that have coral reefs “very good category” is at St. Eri station, “good category” is at St. Lilibooy station, “medium category” is at St. Kota Jawa station and St. Batu Capeu while “bad category” are at St. Hative Besar, St. Poka, St. Halong and St. Hunuth stations. Coral growth at each station is dominated by a non-acropora group. The life forms are massive corals and submassive corals from Porites, Favites, Platygyra, Millepora, Symphyllia, Lobophyllia, Styphora and Pavona genus
REYNOLDS NUMBER ESTIMATION OF ROTAMETER BASED ON K-EPSILON MODEL
Full text linkMeasurement of fluid flow with the aid of a floating element (rotameter) is a simple method used to measure the velocity of the fluid with a better degree of accuracy. However, there is still a tendency for turbulence flow around the floating element (annular area) due to narrowing of the flow area and the geometry shape of the floating element that can reduce the level of the rotameter accuracy. Single phase turbulent flow through rotameter was estimated using k-epsilon turbulence model. Detailed study has been performed to investigate the influence of turbulence characteristics from the Reynolds Number ( ) as a benchmark for predicting the level of turbulence. The results showed that at the velocity of 800 l/h the level is arounds 450, which show that the fluid flow on the rotameter categorized as turbulenc
ESTIMATION OF HERITABILITY AND BREEDING VALUE OF PIGLET BIRTH WEIGHT
Full text linkPiglet birth weight has an economic value and commonly correlated with weaning weigh. Therefore, birth weight traits of piglet needs to be selected for genetic improvement. The purpose of a study was to estimate the genetic improvement of piglet birth weight based on heritability and breeding value. Around 154 heads of offsprings generated from 6 sires and 14 sows were used in this study. The data of piglet birth weight was analyzed for heritability (nested classification), breeding value, selection response, and genetic improvement estimation. The result showed that the heritability (h2) of offsprings was 0.24±0,15. Based on breeding value, sires which had high piglet birth weight can be used for male ranking. Selection of response value was 0.06 kg. According to the selection of response value, improvement of birth weight in piglet based on the sire used can be estimated

Full text linkStudy on the evaluation of the existence of Shorea platyclados Slooten ex Endert (meranti bukit, meranti gunung, meranti tenam) on its natural habitat was conducted on May 2014 in Bukit Daun Protection Forest, Central Bengkulu District, Bengkulu. Exploration and inventarisation were designed in a semi-permanent plot, in which S. platyclados is used as the center of circle plot for vegetation analysis. Results showed that the distribution of S. platyclados is clump on steep valley, with its altitude is in between 400 – 600 m asl. Shorea platyclados was a dominant species on tree stage with good regeneration in all stage with IVI = 88.00%. Pole stages were dominated by Lindera subumbelliflora (Blume) Kostermans with IVI =10.58%, and seedling stage was dominated by Syzygium cymosum DC. with IVI =7.48%. The existence of S. platyclados in Bukit Daun Protected Forest, Central Bengkulu District was not endangered
THE EFFECT OF INDUCTOR RESISTANCE ON DEFIBRILLATION ENERGY FROM ELECTROCARDIOGRAPH ENDURANCE TEST SYSTEM
Full text linkElectrocardiograph endurance test system has two work processes like defibrillator. Charging process produces energy stored in capacitor (ES) and discharges process produce defibrillation energy. Defibrillation energy without connect to electrocardiograph (E2) at test system is influenced by the resistance values of inductor (RL). In previous research, test system only produces E2 = 19,83 joule, this is caused by the inductor used with value RL = 72 Ω. The purpose of this research is to select inductor resistance value to get good and efficient value E2. Range value RLused in test system was 1–10 Ω, based on standar International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 60601-2-27 clause 201.8.5.5.2. Voltage measured in point 100 Ω every time interval (∆t) 0,02 ms obtained from multisim software simulation. The result of simulation indicated if peak voltage increased, then value RL was used approach zero. In other side, measured Voltage data was used as parameter to calculate total E2in every range of RLvalue, then result E2total was compared to ES value to get energy ratio value. Value RL= 1 Ω was the most efficient because has ratio energy value 98,45% with E2 = 393,80 joule, while energy ratio when RL= 10 Ω was not efficient because only had energy ratio value 89,58% with E2 = 358,33 joule
