LRT Depo is a vital infrastructure in the operation of Jakarta’s LRT system. The LRT Depo is located in the Kelapa Gading area. Kelapa Gading is an inundation-prone area in Jakarta. Hence a drainage system should be prepared to manage surface runoff in the area to avoid additional runoff to the surrounding drainage system. In order to reduce runoff in Jakarta Special Province, the Governor of Jakarta has imposed a regulation on surface runoff management for every developed area. The runoff control measures, promoted in the regulation to be applied, are in the form of infiltration wells and storage ponds. The principle of reducing peak discharge by a possible storage system for LRT Depo was designed and applied to comply with regional regulations on rainwater control. The drainage system, initially based on the regulations, was also modeled in the Storm Water Management Modelling software (SWMM). This study evaluated the drainage system by elaborating the reduction of the peak discharge based on the simulation. A reduction of peak discharge was observed in the modeling results. The proposed runoff control at LRT Depo Kelapa Gading is a proper design of infrastructure development for a flood prone area.

Integrating hydrogen firing and a carbon capture plant (CCP) into a natural gas combined cycle (NGCC) power plant is a promising strategy for reducing CO2. In this study, process simulation in Aspen PLUS of hydrogen co-firing in a 40 MW turbine gas combined cycle power plant was done at an identical gas turbine inlet temperature from 0%.cal to 30%.cal. The evaluated cases were hydrogen co-firing with CCP (H2 Co-firing + CCP) and hydrogen co-firing without CCP (H2 Co-firing). The results showed a 6% CO2 emission reduction per 5% increase in hydrogen, albeit with increased NOx emissions. H2 Co-firing experienced a decrease in net power with rising hydrogen co-firing, while H2 Co-firing + CCP saw an increase but remained below Case 2 due to the energy penalty from the carbon capture plant. The capital cost of H2 Co-firing + CCP exceeds that of H2 Co-firing due to CCP usage, impacting gross revenue. The sensitivity analysis indicated that the cost of hydrogen has higher sensitivity compared to the cost of CCP. Lowering hydrogen prices is recommended to effectively reduce CO2 emissions in NGCC.

The deployment of electromyography (EMG) signals attracts many researchers since it can be used in decoding finger movements for exoskeleton robotics, prosthetics hand, and powered wheelchair. However, decoding any movement is a challenging task. The success of EMG signals' use lies in the appropriate choice of feature extraction and classification model, especially in the feature extraction process. Therefore, this study evaluates an eight-feature extraction evaluation on various machine learnings such as the Support Vector Machine (SVM), k-Nearest Neighbor (k-NN), Decision Tree (DT), Naïve Bayes (NB), and Quadratic Discriminant Analysis (QDA). The dataset from four intact subjects is used to classify twelve finger movements. Through 5 cross-validations, the result shows that almost all feature extractions combined with SVM outperform other combinations of features and classifiers. Mean Absolute Value (MAV) as a feature and SVM as a classifier highlight the best combination with an accuracy of 94.01%.

The assembled pattern of concrete hollow building blocks contributes to the wall structure’s durability. This paper presents experimental research on the behavior of concrete hollow block walls. The experimental work included testing four concrete hollow block wall panels with different opening sizes. Constant vertical axial load was applied on top of the wall panels until failure, characterized by boundary conditions. The results showed that the presence of openings reduced the strength of the wall panels; it was possible to observe these differences since the opening area was between 20 and 40% of the gross wall panel area. It was also observed that while the opening percentage had a significant impact on the strength of the wall, the boundary conditions had a less substantial impact on the overall wall response. A high localized concentration of stress was observed at the top corners of the wall panels and a high stress concentration was also observed along the vertical sides of the openings. Variation in the number and the shape of the openings often changed the failure mechanism in the wall panels, even when the percentage area of the opening remained constant. The wall panels A1-B2 reached peak stress levels at 0.019 MPa, 0.036 MPa, 0.056 MPa, and 0.030 MPa. The equivalent peak strains were 0.018, 0.011, 0.012, and 0.010 respectively. This research established significant data and is expected to help in the design and analysis of axially loaded unreinforced masonry walls with openings.

Bituminous concrete mixture is the most widely used structural layer in flexible pavements. The surface layer of the paving is exposed to repeated loads in addition to changes in temperature, especially during the summer, when the temperature approaches the softness point of the asphalt binder, and therefore, it is subject to multiple types of failure, especially rutting. The properties of asphalt binder and asphalt mixtures can be improved by using various additives. Coconut shell powder, made from the dried husk of coconut fruit, is a popular addition in many industries. As a result of its high strength and stability, this waste material can be recycled into functional structural components such as composite material reinforcement. This study was conducted to evaluate the performance of coconut husk as very fine particles passing through sieve number 200 (0.075 mm) to modify the asphalt binder. The modifier was added at rates of (0, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10) by the weight of asphalt binder. Two asphalt binder types, 80/100 and 40/50 penetration grade, were used in this study. All asphalt samples were tested for penetration, softening point, rotational viscosity, and dynamic shear rheology. The results showed that the modified samples had better physical and rheological properties compared to the base asphalt binders. However, (7-8%) replacement of coconut husk powder, regardless of the base asphalt binder, yielded the best performance among the modified binders. In conclusion, coconut powder has significant potential as a road-building material due to its impact on the viability of the road construction sector

The use of precast prestressed concrete girder bridges in Indonesia has been increasing rapidly due to their high quality, reliability, and faster construction on site. The girder components are typically designed for a specific bridge span and can be prefabricated. The Directorate General of Highways of the Ministry of PUPR (Bina Marga) has released a standard design for prestressed concrete girder bridges with a typical span of up to 40 m. This design is based on the bridge loading standard SNI 1725 2016, which determines the live traffic load through consensus due to limited data on actual traffic load measurement results. However, the Ministry of PUPR has been implementing actual traffic load measurements using weigh-in-motion (WIM) technology to directly measure the load of passing vehicles. In this study, a risk assessment of the failure risk of a standard Bina Marga bridge with a 40-m span prestressed concrete girder type was conducted based on B-WIM load measurements. The results of this assessment indicate that the standard Bina Marga bridge has a failure risk of 1.48 x 10-4, which is smaller than the acceptable risk of failure according to the AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specification as referenced in SNI 1725 2016.

Nickel, the main raw material for lithium-ion batteries (LIB), is currently the most in-demand metal. The rising need for nickel and current environmental concerns have underscored the importance of recycling waste metal to recover its value. Meanwhile, a significant secondary source with a high metal value is spent catalyst. In this context, the acid leaching method was used to recover nickel from spent catalyst. This study aimed to synthesize Lithium Nickel Manganese Cobalt Oxide 622 (NMC622) from spent catalyst. To determine the optimal method, a comparative analysis was conducted between solid-state and co-precipitation methods. Recycled spent nickel catalyst to be used for cathode material was examined by analytical methods, i.e., XRD, FTIR, SEM-EDX, and electrochemical performance testing. The XRD, FTIR, and SEM-EDX tests produced similar outcomes, consistent with previous reports. However, in the electrochemical test, the co-precipitation method showed a specific capacity two times higher than the solid-state method. The NMC622 from the co-precipitation method (NMC622-CP) yielded a specific discharge capacity of 132.82 mAh.g-1 at 0.1C, while the retention capacity was 70% for 50 cycles at 0.5C.

Rubberized thin surfacing hot mix asphalt (RTSHMA) is a type of flexible pavement that is currently being developed. It can provide the same good performance as asphalt concrete–wearing course (AC-WC). Based on previous research, the use of crumb rubber in the asphalt mixture can provide several advantages, such as increasing the flexibility of the mix so that the pavement is more resistant to cracking. Based on research showing the advantages of rubberized asphalt, the idea emerged to apply it in the field, namely on the Palur–Sragen City Boundary section as wearing course. The method of analysis in this study was modeling the pavement structure with the KENPAVE and BISAR 3.0 programs. The analysis results showed that the AC-WC model and RTSHMA model have the same good performance because both of them have a service life of more than twenty years, which is the standard for flexible pavements. However, RTSHMA has an advantage, i.e., the thickness layer is 25% thinner than AC-WC’s. With a thinner layer than AC-WC but the same good performance, RTSHMA is worth considering as an alternative pavement, especially for overlays.

Microplastic removal from stormwater runoff from roads is necessary to reduce the effect of microplastic pollution in water bodies. Bioretention is a potential technology to remove microplastics in stormwater runoff from roads. A lab-scale experiment was conducted to determine the efficiency, effect on vegetation and discharge variation, and the kinetics of microplastic removal from stormwater runoff from roads using a bioretention cell. The experiment was done using an artificial sample based on visual characterization of stormwater runoff from highways, commercial, and residential roads. The vegetations that were examined were Vetivera sp. and Hibiscus sp. The operational discharge was varied based on rainfall intensity categories. The result showed that the removal efficiency was in the range of 92.4 to 99.3% with a mean of 97.2%. Statistical analysis (α = 5%) showed that variation in vegetation and discharge had no significant effect on microplastic removal using bioretention. The first-order kinetic analysis showed that the kinetic removal constant of the bioretention with Vetivera sp., bioretention with Hibiscus sp., and bioretention without vegetation was 0.0356, 0.034, and 0.0327, respectively. These results indicate that bioretention with Hibiscus sp. removed more microplastics at greater depths than with Vetivera sp.

Bioretention is a potential technology to remove microplastics in stormwater runoff from roads. A lab-scale experiment was conducted to determine the efficiency, effect on vegetation and discharge variation, and the kinetics of microplastic removal from stormwater runoff from roads using a bioretention cell. The experiment was done using an artificial sample based on visual characterization of stormwater runoff from highways, commercial, and residential roads. The vegetations that were examined were Vetivera sp. and Hibiscus sp. The operational discharge was varied based on rainfall intensity categories. The result showed that the removal efficiency was in the range of 92.4 to 99.3% with a mean of 97.2%. Statistical analysis (α = 5%) showed that variation in vegetation and discharge had no significant effect on microplastic removal using bioretention. The first-order kinetic analysis showed that the kinetic removal constant of the bioretention with Vetivera sp., bioretention with Hibiscus sp., and bioretention without vegetation was 0.0356, 0.034, and 0.0327, respectively.

Fused deposition modeling (FDM) is a technology with potential benefits such as material versatility, user-friendliness, and cost-effectiveness. However, the mechanical properties of FDM-printed specimens are relatively low. To address this issue, post-processing techniques such as shot peening can be employed. Shot peening is utilized as a post-treatment for metal-based and ABS materials, but its application to PLA material has not been explored yet. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of shot peening on the mechanical properties of FDM-printed PLA samples. A full factorial experimental design was employed with shot peening speed, duration, and number of outer shells as parameters. The tensile strength of 72 samples after the shot peening process was measured and evaluated. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) revealed that all parameters had a significant influence on tensile strength. Additionally, the interaction of speed*time and speed*number of shells also had a significant influence. Meanwhile, the interaction of time*number of shells and speed*time*number of shells had no significant influence. The findings of this study demonstrate the potential of post-processing techniques to enhance the mechanical strength of FDM components, particularly those composed of PLA material.
