The Artificial Lighting Analysis of Study Rooms in Dormitories and Classrooms Islamic Boarding School Of Lil Banat Parepare

This study aims to find out the intensity of light in the study room of Islamic boarding school of DDI Lil Banat Parepare. Measurements are taken in rooms that are often used by students to learn, namely classes and dormitories. The type of research used is quantitative by simulation method. Variables are tied to exposure measurement i.e. light intensity. While the variables are free, namely the arrangement of light points and the layout of the study room. Measurements were carried out over three days using a digital lux meter tool. The measurement results showed that the intensity of light in the dormitory did not meet the Indonesian National Standard for study space both night and day. During the day classrooms meet Indonesian National Standards but not at night. Although students as a space user is comfortable with the condition of light intensity in the study room and can learn according to these conditions, students still feel some complaints in the form of sore eyes, tense eyes and difficulty focusing. Thus, researchers made recommendations on the design of study rooms that can make students more comfortable learning in dormitories and classrooms so as to reduce complaints while studying. Lighting design recommendations are made in several alternatives by adding the number of lamps and changing the type of lamp using Dialux simulation. The simulation results of the study room lighting design recommendations have met the standards for use so that it can be applied to dormitories and classes at the Islamic boarding school of DDI Lil Banat Parepare.

Comparison the Strength of Midship Structures With Margin Plate and Without Margin Plate

Margin plate is a part of bottom construction that joint the floor and frame construction of the ship, so the inner bottom plate will be installed cut off on the margin plate. Lately the bottom construction of the ship tends not to use the margin plate. The ship is currently built with an inner bottom plate continuously from the left side to the right side of the ship.This study aims to determine the transversal and longitudinal strength ratio of ships with and without margin plate. The analysis was carried out by using Finite Element Method so-called ANSYSTM. The result shows if the loadvariatied 0.2 x maximum load on the calculation of the transverse strength of the ship, the stress value on the ship model with a margin plate was 9.6242 (N/mm2) and on the ship model without margin plate was 8.4739 (N/mm2) under conditions 100%. The results of the comparison due to bottom load averaged 15.82%. The difference in stress due to the effect of deck loads was an average of 13.49% while the effect of side loads was on average 8.74%. The longitudinal strength of the ship was also a varied of every increase of 0.2 x maximum moment with a review point of meeting between bottom plate and bilga plate for the ship model without margin plates using the Multi Point Constraint (MPC) method looking for results in sagging conditions of 12,443 (N / mm2) and the hogging condition was -11.045 (N / mm2) at 100% x maximum moment load conditions. So that the ship model with a margin plate sagging condition was 23,189 (N / mm2) and hagging condition was -20,585 (N / mm2). The results showed the stress that occurred in the ship model without using margin plate was better to withstand the transverse and longitudinal strength of the ship compared to the ship model with the margin plate.

Accurate Results for Free Vibration of Doubly Curved Shallow Shells of Rectangular Planform (Part.1)

A method is presented for determining the free vibration frequencies of doubly curved, isotropic shallow shells under general edge conditions and is used to obtain accurate natural frequencies for wide range of geometric parameters. Based on the shallow shell theory applicable to thin thickness shells, a method of Ritz is extended to derive a frequency equation wherein the displacement functions are modified to accommodate arbitrary sets of edge conditions for both in-plane and out-of-plane motions. In numerical computation, convergence is tested against series terms and comparison study is made with existing results by other authors. Twenty one sets of frequency parameters are tabulated for a wide range of shell shape and curvature ratio to serve as data for future comparison and practical design purpose.

The Comparison of Fractional Derivative Model and Classical Spring-Dashpot Model in the Identification of Viscoelastic Characteristics of a Rubber Material

In the design of viscoelastic materials used in rubber products, not theoretical approaches but experimental approaches have been usually employed. This is due to the difficulties in mathematical procedures of the dynamic material characteristics such as the dependencies of strain amplitude, frequency and/or environmental temperature in deformation. In mathematical approach there are two kind of analytical models for a complex module of the material, which are a fractional derivative model and a spring-dashpot model. However there are few papers dealing with the study of the identifications of parameters for the experimental modulus actually obtained not only by using the fractional derivative model but also by using the spring-dashpot model and the discussion of the comparisons of the two models. In the present paper, the complex elastic modulus for a rubber material are obtained experimentally for a wide range of excitation frequency, and the modulus-frequency relations are derived analytically by using the two models, respectively. Finally, the applicability of the models are discussed from the numerical results.

Contact-Free Mortuary Trolley Design as a Device for the Mobility of Covid-19 Victims

The Covid-19 pandemic has caused many issues, especially in the medical field. One of the groups that are affected by the pandemic the worst is the health workers. The surge of demand for health services, especially for Covid-19 patients, overwhelms health workers, forcing them to work extra hard and eventually experience exhaustion. Due to this condition, the health workers may face difficulties in doing heavy-duty work. This paper proposes a design of a mortuary trolley as a device to ease the health workers in handling the dead bodies of Covid-19 victims. Considering the need for a corpse mobility aid that is contact-free, the design utilizes a combination of a scissor lift structure, a power screw mechanism to elevate and lower the table, and a conveyor system to load and unload the table. To ensure that the device can operate without experiencing unwanted failure, strength analyses are done on the most critical components, such as the scissor arm, pin joint, power screw, and scissor arm connector, to determine the safety factor at maximum load in static and fatigue loading condition. Analysis results show that all those components have a safety factor greater than 1 for both static and fatigue loading conditions, indicating the device will not yield and is predicted to have infinite life. The design and analyses of this device can be a reference for manufacturers of medical devices to design a mortuary trolley to ease the work of health workers.

Investigating the Local Stress of Car Deck Ro-Ro 5000 GT

The influence of Transit Area in Public Open Space of Losari Beach Makassar Pavilion on the Activities of Group Visitors

Urban communities are social beings who have a high level of activity. One of the activities to release fatigue is a refreshing type of activity. A developing city like Makassar needs open space for the public as a container for community activities, including refreshing activities. The Losari Beach Pavilion is present as an open public space that is visited by the majority of visitors in groups to carry out refreshing activities. This public space has a space configuration whose design is available in several parts of the room as a stopover for visiting activities. This part of the space shows that the activities are overlapping so that space is used in the transit space and some of it becomes empty space. Therefore, this research was conducted to explain the effects of what happens to transit space and empty space, in this case the space that is not functionally stopped. This study used the descriptive qualitative method. The data collection technique uses the behavior mapping method by recording activities and sketches to get an image of the activity pattern carried out by group visitors then presented in tables, pictures and descriptions. The results of the study show that the transit space is a place of stopover because of the influence of spatial area, visibility, historical area, iconic elements, social interaction, while the shelter space was not functionally visited due to the influence of minimizing visibility, social interaction, and arrangement of attribute elements.

A Low Cost Vehicle Counting System Based On The Internet of Things

In urban areas where land for parking is very limited, drivers often waste time, fuel, and emissions circling around without information if unoccupied parking spaces are available or not. In this paper, we design and implement a low-cost wireless system to count the number of cars and motorcycles in a parking lot. The system consists of two sensor devices, which are installed at an entrance gate and an exit gate of a parking lot. Each device has a NodeMCU ESP8266, an HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensor, and an MPU-9266 accelerometer. We use REST API as the web service to connect sensor devices and users, who will access the parking information using a web browser. The C4.5 algorithm is utilized to construct a decision tree to classify detected objects as cars, motorcycles, or people. We show by experiment that our sensor devices and the wireless monitoring system work correctly.
