Judul: Analisis Stabilitas Nilai tukar di Negara ASEAN-5 Sebelum dan Saat Pandemi Covid-19
Abstrak: Covid-19 merupakan salah satu wabah penyakit yang memiliki pengaruh terhadap ekonomi ASEAN-5 terutama pada nilai tukar. Nilai tukar adalah salah satu alat yang digunakan untuk melakukan transaksi keuangan antar negara. Apabila nilai tukar bergejolak akan memengaruhi ekonomi suatu negara terutama dalam perdagangan internasional. Faktor-faktor yang memengaruhi nilai tukar dapat dari segi ekonomi maupun non ekonomi. Dari segi ekonomi nilai tukar dipengaruhi oleh inflasi, ekspor dan impor, serta lainnya. Sedangkan faktor non ekonomi dilihat dari politik, pandemi, dan lainnya. Dalam penelitian ini, Covid-19 disertakan sebagai variabel yang diduga dapat memengaruhi nilai tukar. Penelitian ini menganalisis stabilitas nilai tukar ASEAN-5 sebelum dan saat pandemi Covid-19. Selain itu, pengaruh faktor makroekonomi seperti inflasi luar negeri, perbedaan suku bunga, ekspor, pertumbuhan ekonomi pada negara ASEAN-5 sudah diamati. Analisis yang digunakan adalah panel statis.

Judul: The Relationship between stock price index and  interest rates in ASEAN-5 countries before and during the Covid-19 pandemic
Abstrak: Pandemi Covid-19 adalah fenomena yang terjadi pada akhir tahun 2019, Covid-19 memiliki dampak tidak hanya bagi kesehatan juga berdampak pada keadaan ekonomi suatu negara. Hal tersebut juga berpengaruh terhadap tingkat suku bunga dan indeks harga saham pada negara ASEAN-5. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis hubungan tingkat suku bunga dan ineks harga saham di negara ASEAN-5 pada masa sebelum dan saat pandemi Covid-19. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif dan kuantitatif dengan menggunakan analisis VARX (Vector Autoregressive with Exogenous). Hasil dari penelitian ini yaitu pada masa sebelum pandemi Covid-19 indeks harga saham negara ASEAN-5 cenderung stabil dikarenakan kebijakan moneter yang eketif melalui suku bunga, namun pada masa pandemi Covid-19 suku bunga tidak berpengaruh secara signifika terhadap indeks harga saham, hal tersebut dikarenakan tingginya sentimen negatif investor terhadap indeks harga saham saat pandemi Covid-19. Berdasarkan interpretasi IRF exogenous, indeks harga saham dan suku bunga negara ASEAN-5 masih berfluktuatif dengan adanya guncangan penambahan kasus Covid-19. Hal tersebut menunjukkan bahwa ekonomi negara ASEAN-5 masih rentan terhadap guncangan pandemi Covid-19., The Covid-19 pandemic is a phenomenon that occurred at the end of 2019. Covid-19 has an impact not only on health but also on the economic state of a country. This also affects interest rates and stock price indexes in ASEAN-5 countries. The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between interest rates and stock price indexes in ASEAN-5 countries before and during the Covid-19 pandemic. This study used descriptive and quantitative methods using VARX (Vector Autoregressive with Exogenous) analysis. The results of this study in the period before the Covid-19 pandemic the stock price index of ASEAN-5 countries tended to be stable due to effective monetary policy through interest rates, but during the Covid-19 pandemic interest rates did not significantly affect the stock price index, it was due to high negative investor sentiment towards the stock price index during the Covid-19 pandemic. Based on the IRF exogenous interpretation, the stock price index and interst rate of ASEAN-5 are still fluctuating whit their shock of Covid-19 cases. This shows that the ASEAN-5 economies are still vulnerable to the shocks of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Judul: Modification design of incinerator multifunction continue type
Abstrak: Incinerator is an equipment to incinerate trashes with high temperature control to ensure that the combustion process was done completely. The previous design of batch type incinerator which has been designed by Pradipta (2011) has some disadvantages, such as heat transfer system, loading and unloading system, air supply system and utilization of heat energy. So, those design should be modified to improve its performance. The performance parameters of incinerator are temperature of combustion, the rate of combustion, quality of exhaust gases, safety factor, and utilization of heat energy. Modified incinerator has eight sections (combustion chamber, chimney, air inlet, hopper, boundary plate, ash chamber, charcoal chamber, and water heater pipe). The performance test shows that the highest combustion temperature is 689.6 ⁰C, with combustion rate 5.78 kg / hour. The incinerator is safe for operator and the exhaust gasses has good quality. Utilization of thermal energy could increasing water temperature up to 32 ⁰C. Air inlet position was not in the proper place, so combustion temperature could not reach as high as expected. Therefore it need improvement.
