IoT-Based Disaster Response Robot for Victim Identification in Building Collapses
Authors: Pramono Herlambang Sigit , Hakim Vando Gusti Al , Alfianto Faris
Published: March 2024

Natural disasters like earthquakes frequently cause building collapses, trapping many victims under dense rubble. The first 72 hours are crucial for locating survivors, but the dangers of secondary collapse hinder direct access. Teleoperated robots can provide vital visual data to aid rescue efforts, though many prototypes remain constrained by high complexity, cost, and minimal customizability. This work investigates developing an Internet of Things (IoT) integrated disaster response robot that delivers accessible and remotely controllable capabilities for victim identification in hazardous collapse sites. Requirements analysis was conducted through a literature review and first responder interviews to determine the critical capabilities needed. The robot was designed using 3D modeling software and assembled using 3D printed and off-the-shelf components. It features remote-controllable movement, real-time video feed, geopositioning, and remote lighting toggling. Rigorous lab tests validated core functionalities, including camera image acquisition, Bluetooth communication ranges up to 10 meters, and comparable GPS coordinate accuracy to a smartphone. Further field experiments showcased the robot's ability to transmit smooth video signals over distances up to 12 meters and its adeptness at navigating complex terrains, evidenced by its proficient left/right panning and ability to surmount obstacles. An affordable Internet-of-Things integrated disaster robot tailored to victim identification was successfully designed, prototyped, and tested. This robot aids search and rescue operations by delivering visual and spatial data about hard-to-reach victims during the critical hours after disaster strikes. This confirms strong potential, accessibility, and customizability for professional and volunteer urban search and rescue teams across environments and economic constraints.

Published: March 2024

The relevance of the issues under consideration is determined by the specificity of HIV infection, which is both a consequence and a cause of social deprivation, psychosocial crisis situations and social tension. In this regard, the aim of our study is to identify the level of awareness of citizens about HIV infection, diagnostic possibilities and measures of personal prevention before and after a comprehensive systematic application of medical and social work technologies in the framework of primary prevention. The object of the study is modern processes in society in relation to medical and social prevention of HIV infection. The subject of the study is the level of awareness of young people about HIV infection within the framework of using the best medical and social practices in HIV prevention. The author examines in detail the social effect of activities of various formats necessary to increase the level of medical and social literacy of both HIV-negative and HIV-positive people. In the process of research, general scientific (analysis, review of domestic and foreign professional literature) and special-scientific research methods were used: questionnaire survey (young people); method of focused interview and expert assessments of specialists dealing with HIV/AIDS (doctors, psychologists, peer counselors, social work specialists). The questions were related to the effectiveness of established medical and social methods (technologies) of HIV prevention. Comprehensive medical and social work, consisting in identifying gaps in medical and social literacy, conducting prevention activities with the target audience, assessing the expert opinion of specialists involved in HIV prevention, and proposing recommendations based on the results of the study, allowed to identify a number of social barriers that hinder effective medical and social prevention of HIV infection to determine the vectors for the development of new forms and technologies in the field of HIV prevention.

Authors: Maulina Novaria , Surya Yuyun Wahyu Izzati , Wibawa I.G.A.K. Satrya
Published: March 2024

The entry of the Korean wave in the early 2000s in Indonesia, which was facilitated by internet technology, has become part of communication activities. This has led to the formation of subcultures of fans of Korean wave products, namely K-Drama and K-Pop, including women's subcultures who like K-drama and K-Pop. This subculture was built and developed through social media such as Facebook and WhatsApp. This article reviews how the digital era has changed how female fans interact to empower themselves through subcultures in the online space, mainly focusing on female fans of K-pop bands and K-dramas. Using the ethnographic research method, the research results show that along with the digital era that continues to develop, the subculture of female fans, initially formed through a physical collective group, has now evolved into a subculture of female fans formed through internet-based interactions. The subculture of female fans in the online space has become a forum for exploring pleasure, creativity, and self-empowerment through text production and reproduction of media texts supported by digital technology. Exploration of fun, creativity, and self-empowerment merged in a sense of sisterhood, participatory and collaborative culture.
University students' self-presentation on Tiktok in the context of group communication
Authors: Arianto Arianto
Published: March 2024

The phenomenon of self-presentation is increasingly trending to reveal, develop identities, manipulate and customise individuals' self-images on social media. University students present themselves on TikTok through video uploads, music, and distributed using TikTok's highly personalised algorithms in group communication: watch history, re-watches, likes, comments, and post-view activity. We present the concept of online impression management through the lens of self-presentation theory as the practice of conveying self-impression and controlling personal information to represent one's self-image to be liked. This study uses a qualitative approach, uses phenomenological methods to find the meaning and interpretation of self-presentation through uploads on TikTok. They expressed personal information to their reference group and experimented based on different roles when constructing identity. Some strategies are used to give a positive impression to their friends. They projected different versions of themselves depending on self-category and group communication context when receiving positive feedback or likes.

Published: March 2024

This research aims to explore the reception of sexual communication messages within the context of marital relationships in the Durex "Unequal Dinner" advertisement series. The method employed in this study is qualitative-descriptive, utilising Stuart Hall's Encoding-Decoding Theory to understand the reception by the subjects. Data was collected through in-depth interviews with four married female subjects born between 1981 and 1996 from the millennial generation. They reside in East Java, Indonesia, have been married for less than 10 years, and are parents. The research highlights differences in the reception of the subjects, stemming from their diverse experiences and backgrounds. Factors such as geographical distance, societal culture, and sexual education influence how they receive the sexual communication messages presented in the advertisement. Simultaneously, a dominant-hegemonic narrative position was observed in the subjects' receptions, indicating a close alignment between their experiences and the sexual communication messages conveyed by the Durex "Unequal Dinner" advertisement series. However, it does not guarantee the subjects' interest in purchasing Durex products.

Authors: Puspitasari Fingky Ayu , Anggoro Ayub Dwi
Published: March 2024

The focus of this research is to analyse the semiotic meaning conceptualised by Roland Barthes, which includes denotative and connotative meanings. This also delves into the myths constructed by the media-related representation of gender switching in Jathil Dancers in Reog Ponorogo and its relationship with the Media Coverage of Gemblak. Researchers extracted data by collecting news from mass media portals that discussed Gemblak Ponorogo. The results showed that mass media significantly maintains people's views on culture and tradition. In Roland Barthes' semiotic analysis, some media employ negative language that can influence a negative view of Gemblak. The media, with its point of view, news sources, and characterisation of those in the news, can significantly affect people's perceptions, and it continues to maintain these assumptions until now.

Published: March 2024

Sayang Heulang Beach, a tourism destination on the southern coast of Garut Regency, holds a significant intangible cultural heritage encompassing the local wisdom of Mancagahar Village, Pameungpeuk Sub-District, and Garut in general. This research explored communication and promotional strategies for the development of Sayang Heulang Beach, using a qualitative approach based on its local wisdom. By conducting interviews with seven informants and validity data using the triangulation technique with Focus Group Discussion (FGD), the study revealed that the destination fulfilled the requirements of nature-based tourism, offering authenticity, uniqueness, locality, and an immersive cultural experience among the community. However, there were areas for improvement. The local wisdom from cultural, historical, and mythical perspectives was still in the exploration process, and budget limitations resulted in the absence of thorough target market identification. Moreover, communication messages and promotions did not address tourists' fundamental needs regarding functionality, symbolism, and memorable experiences.

Authors: Basit Abdul , Prisca Amandha Oktavia  , Rahmi Winangsih  , Fitria Santi
Published: March 2024

Abstract In the first half of 2022, Ancol is rebranding by releasing a new logo. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method with Charles Sanders Peirce's Semiotic Analysis, specifically applying Peirce's Second Trichotomy Theory of Triangle Meaning. Data collection techniques through documentation, literature study, and face-to-face and online interviews via Zoom. The results of this study indicate that the meaning of the message that Ancol wants to convey through its new logo from the visualisation displayed is a depiction of the Ancol parent brand, which presents beach tourism as its main tour and various educational, entertainment and recreational tours with underwater themes as Ancol's sub-brand tourism. The use of ocean blue in the logo represents the tourism identity that Ancol's parent brand presents, namely navy blue for Ancol beach tourism. The “Ancol” typography on the new logo is made with the MVB grenadine font which represents Ancol's vision, especially the letters “C” and “O'' which became an integrated unit like Ancol's vision– to evolve into the most expansive and integrated property development company in Southeast Asia.

Authors: Muniruddin  , Hajji Zul , Lauli Rahmad A.
Published: March 2024

This study investigates the poverty alleviation approach employed by social services in Medan and the influence of remote indigenous community projects. Poverty results in several social and economic issues, underscoring the importance of identifying and implementing effective strategies to alleviate these challenges. This study investigates the impact of moral communication and social support on poverty reduction. It assesses the effectiveness of social support for communities using integrated data on prosperous families (in Bahasa called DTKS). The study employed a descriptive qualitative research methodology. The researchers obtained data by conducting interviews, observations, and analysing documents. Social services employ Islamic communication strategies to address poverty, encompassing various forms of social assistance. Only localities with integrated data on prosperous families can receive this funding. Social services employ this approach to diminish poverty and empower the community. For isolated indigenous tribes, social services extend beyond Islamic communication to implement policies that provide practical vocational training programmes that promote work integration and technical oversight. This study examines the utilisation of Islamic communication and social agencies' assistance to combat poverty. It also provides guidance for policies and activities specifically targeted towards indigenous communities. These discoveries can provide valuable insights for shaping future social service practices and regulations.

Authors: Rony Zahara Tussoleha , Heryadi D. Yadi
Published: March 2024

Abstract The rapid development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and automation systems in the digital world challenges agricultural extension. This study investigates the contemporary significance of diverse and productive agriculture, specifically focusing on agricultural extension. This study investigates the implementation of agricultural extension services in Indonesia's automation, digital, and adapting environments through a comprehensive review of existing literature. Studies have indicated that agricultural extension plays a crucial role in mitigating climate change. This study assesses the effectiveness of agricultural extension services in different environments in Indonesia through qualitative research methods. Information was gathered by conducting interviews, surveys, and field observations. The results demonstrate the indispensability of agricultural extension in all types of environments, particularly in addressing climate change. It has been ascertained that each environment necessitates distinct educational approaches. Digital environments prioritise acquiring technical knowledge, automation environments necessitate education in sustainable agricultural practices, and adapting environments prioritise integrating field experience and local knowledge. This study provides an extensive review of the functions of agricultural extension. It demonstrates that agricultural extension can combat climate change. Furthermore, it underscores the importance of employing educational methods and approaches tailored to the specific environment, as this will influence the development of agricultural extension education.
Numerical Simulation and Influence of Non-Gaussian Vibrations on Flexible Robotic Systems
Authors: Bell John , Redmond Laura , Carpenter Kalind , de la Croix Jean-Pierre
Published: March 2024

Random vibration excitation is a standard method for obtaining the dynamic properties of aerospace structures and simulating loading conditions. Shaker-based random excitation and traditional finite element analysis techniques use random vibrations, assuming a Gaussian distribution of excitation impulse magnitudes. While Gaussian signals may sufficiently describe some vibrational environments, many real-world excitations have non-Gaussian distributions. These signals may contain vibrational impulses larger than those observed in a Gaussian signal and could cause damage if not considered. This paper examines the influence of non-Gaussian signals on flexible vs. rigid robotic architectures using NASA JPL’s Pop-Up Flat Folding Explorer Robot (PUFFER) and Cooperative Autonomous Distributed Robotic Explorer (CADRE). The results indicate that flexible systems can be significantly impacted by a non-Gaussian excitation profile and that neither a typical enveloping of a Gaussian excitation nor a superposition of the responses to a worst-case impulse load with the response to a Gaussian signal was sufficient to bound the response due to non-Gaussian excitation. The driving mechanism for increased sensitivity of flexible robotic systems appears to be inertial, and designers may consider shifting the relative flexibility of the system or its constraints to force particular deformation modes or designing hinge mechanisms with increased damping to minimize the influence of non-Gaussian signals on the response of a flexible robotic structure.
Experimental and Computational Investigation of Rotor Noise in Hover
Authors: Johnson Chloe , Sirohi Jayant , Jacobellis George , Singh Rajneesh
Published: March 2024

The noise magnitude and directivity of a four-bladed 1.108-m-radius rotor in hover were measured at a tip Mach number of 0.42, representative of an electric vertical takeoff and landing vehicle rotor. The tonal noise was filtered from the acoustic spectra, allowing for analysis of the separate contributions of tonal and broadband noise. Accompanying computations of the same rotor and operating conditions were performed using the rotorcraft comprehensive analysis system (RCAS) with a viscous vortex particle method (VVPM) for aerodynamic calculations and PSU-WOPWOP with the semi-empirical Brooks, Pope, and Marcolini (BPM) broadband model for predicting acoustics. Measured broadband and tonal noise contributed similar magnitudes to the overall sound pressure level, with broadband always several decibels greater. This is in contrast to conventional helicopter rotors, which are dominated by tonal noise. Simulated trends of tonal noise matched the measurements, though the higher harmonic components of the acoustic spectra were underpredicted by up to 30 dB. The broadband noise was underpredicted by 10 dB at moderate rotor collectives, as the measured noise contained noise from laminar and turbulent boundary layers, while the model predicted predominantly laminar boundary layer–vortex shedding noise. Comparing the time histories of the measured and simulated rotor thrust revealed that the RCAS-VVPM method does not capture the amplitude of the 4/rev component of the thrust and lacks the higher frequency content present in the measured thrust, indicating a possible source of discrepancy in the tonal acoustic predictions. The results of this study show that methods to predict rotor tonal and broadband noise without the use of lengthy computational fluid dynamics computations must be further developed.
Dynamic Model of Vapor Compression Systems for Aircraft Environmental Control Systems
Authors: Ablanque Nicolás , Torras Santiago , Rigola Joaquim , Oliet Carles
Published: March 2024

The optimization of novel aircraft Environmental Control System (ECS) architectures necessitates the support of complex numerical simulations. Within the framework of the more electric aircraft approach, a promising strategy to enhance the overall efficiency of traditional ECS involves the incorporation of vapor compression systems (VCSs), which offer superior cooling efficiency compared to conventional air cycle machines. In this study, a Modelica/Dymola library for simulating VCSs has been developed, with a focused emphasis on three critical attributes: numerical robustness, accuracy, and minimal computational time. To successfully integrate and simulate the VCS model into an entire ECS model, these characteristics are essential. An appropriate tradeoff has been achieved between the computational cost of the VCS model and its ability to accurately predict the system’s physical behavior (the heat exchangers have been modeled using a partial dynamic approach to optimize both robustness and computational efficiency). The VCS model has undergone thorough testing and has been seamlessly integrated into a representative ECS model to replicate a typical commercial airplane flight mission. A comparative analysis of the advantages offered by a variable-speed compressor versus a fixed-speed one has been conducted, revealing potential energy savings of up to 40%. Furthermore, the incorporation of an internal heat exchanger has led to additional energy savings exceeding 5%.

Authors: Comer Anthony , Chakraborty Imon
Published: March 2024

This paper presents a methodology for optimizing a Total Energy–based control system architecture for a lift-plus-cruise vertical takeoff and landing urban air mobility concept. The Total Energy Control System algorithm, which was originally developed for fixed-wing applications, is extended to also be applicable to hovering and transitioning flight. Control system parameters are optimized using a genetic algorithm optimization scheme, subject to constraints on dynamic stability and control response characteristics. Control system optimization and flight simulations are performed using the Modular Aircraft Dynamics and Control Algorithm Simulation Platform. Results presented include simulations of the optimized flight control system operation for maneuvering scenarios representative of hover, transition, and forward flight conditions as well as during transitions between vertical and forward flight modes. The presented results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control system architecture and the demonstrated optimization methodology.
Active Vibration Damping Using Rotor Torque Control in Electric Aircraft
Authors: Cho Changik , Rahn Christopher D. , Smith Edward , Cusumano Joseph P.
Published: March 2024

Vibration damping in aerospace structures can decrease the likelihood of failures and instabilities and improve passenger comfort. This paper introduces the novel idea of damping vibration using the electric proprotors on aircraft without compromising flight control. The equations of motion of a cantilevered beam with a propeller at the tip driven by an electric motor are obtained using Hamilton’s principle, solved analytically in the frequency domain, and approximately in the time domain. Feeding back the beam tip angular rate to the motor torque is shown to asymptotically stabilize all transverse beam vibration modes. The overall vibration control consists of the inner rate feedback damping loop with an outer rotor speed control loop. Experimental frequency response and step response validate the models and show that the closed-loop damping in the first mode is three times higher than open loop with less than 1% rotor speed change for a 3% initial tip displacement. Theoretical results give good agreement with experiments. Parametric studies based on a 12 kg quadcopter indicate that if the rotor inertia is sufficiently large the proposed control can provide 8% damping with minimal impact on rotor speed.
Shallow Encounters’ Impact on Asteroid Deflection Prediction and Implications on Trajectory Design
Authors: Negri Rodolfo B. , Prado Antônio F. B. A.
Published: March 2024

Analytical approximations are commonly employed in the initial trajectory design phase of a mission to rapidly explore a broad design space. In the context of an asteroid deflection mission, accurately predicting deflection is crucial to determining the spacecraft’s trajectory that will produce the desired outcome. However, the dynamics involved are intricate, and simplistic models may not fully capture the system’s complexity. This study assesses the precision and limitations of analytical models in predicting deflection, comparing them to more accurate numerical simulations. The findings reveal that encounters with perturbing bodies, even at significant distances (a dozen times the radii of the sphere of influence of the perturbing planet), can markedly disturb the deflected asteroid’s trajectory, resulting in notable disparities between analytical and numerical predictions. The underlying reasons for this phenomenon are explained, and provisional general guidelines are provided to assist mission analysts in addressing such occurrences. By comprehending the impact of shallow encounters on deflection, this study equips designers with the knowledge to make informed decisions throughout the trajectory planning process, enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of asteroid deflection missions.
Machine-Learning-Enhanced Real-Time Aerodynamic Forces Prediction Based on Sparse Pressure Sensor Inputs
Authors: Duan Junming , Wang Qian , Hesthaven Jan S.
Published: March 2024

Accurate real-time prediction of aerodynamic forces is crucial for the navigation of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). This paper presents a data-driven aerodynamic force prediction model based on a small number of pressure sensors located on the surface of a UAV. The model is built on a linear term that can make a reasonably accurate prediction and a nonlinear correction for accuracy improvement. The linear term is based on a reduced basis reconstruction of surface pressure, with the basis extracted from simulation data and the basis coefficients determined by solving linear pressure reconstruction equations at a set of optimal sensor locations, which are obtained by using the discrete empirical interpolation method (DEIM). The nonlinear term is an artificial neural network that is trained to bridge the gap between the DEIM prediction and the ground truth, especially when only low-fidelity simulation data are available. The model is tested on numerical and experimental dynamic stall data of a two-dimensional NACA0015 airfoil and numerical simulation data of the dynamic stall of a three-dimensional drone. Numerical results demonstrate that the machine-learning-enhanced model is accurate, efficient, and robust, even for the NACA0015 case, in which the simulations do not agree well with the wind tunnel experiments.
Buzz Characteristics Under Fluid–Structure Interaction of Variable-Geometry Lip for Hypersonic Inlet
Authors: Ye Kun , Zhou Xinxin , Ye Zhengyin
Published: March 2024

Variable-geometry lip structures can effectively broaden the operating range and improve the performance of hypersonic inlets. However, the presence of connection devices leads to a significant reduction in structural stiffness, which can easily trigger fluid–structure interaction (FSI) issues of the lip. In this study, an in-house FSI program is employed to investigate the buzz characteristics under FSI of the lip for a hypersonic inlet. The results indicate that FSI induces instability in the downstream shock train, resulting in the premature occurrence of inlet buzz. The buzz mode induced by FSI significantly differs from the rigid inlet buzz. During the buzz induced by FSI, both violent and mild buzz modes coexist, with these two modes irregularly alternating. During the violent buzz, the inlet achieves a brief start, leading to a fundamentally different evolution of the flowfield structure compared to the rigid model. During the mild buzz, the inlet remains unstart, so the evolution of the flowfield structure is similar to that of the rigid model. In comparison to the rigid inlet buzz, the amplitudes of pressure fluctuations significantly increase, and the dominant frequency decreases for the buzz induced by FSI. Simultaneously, different evolution characteristics of flow frequencies within various inlet regions are observed. Additionally, performance parameters no longer exhibit regular cyclic variations, with significant amplifications in their amplitudes. This study deepens the understanding of the buzz characteristics under FSI of lips for hypersonic inlets and provides a novel perspective on the mechanisms underlying buzz occurrence.

Published: March 2024

This research examines how ductility affects the durability of lunar surface structures against recurring disturbances like moonquakes, micrometeorite impacts, and thermal cycles over an extended period. The structural performance at various levels of ductility was determined by adjusting material parameters and the thickness of a reference multilayered dome structure. Moonquake and micrometeorite impact-induced lateral displacements were estimated using a reduced-order model under a control-oriented dynamic computational modeling framework. The study considered the degradation of the metallic dome’s strength properties over time due to thermal cycles. Fragility curves were generated by assessing the likelihood of reaching three predefined damage levels as a result of multiple hazards. Additionally, a discounted cash flow analysis was conducted to incorporate a financial aspect into the performance comparison. The findings revealed that structures with sufficient ductility capacity have a lower probability of sustaining severe damage or collapsing within a shorter time frame. Hence, having ductile structures in lunar environments is advantageous as it allows the postponement of maintenance and repair actions, thereby conserving scarce resources for more urgent tasks. Moreover, the financial analysis demonstrated that lunar habitats with higher ductile capacities result in larger net present values, offering a higher return on the initial investment.
Transonic Flutter of Skin Panels Pinned at the Center
Authors: Currao Gaetano M. D. , He Hsu-Chang
Published: March 2024

This work is a numerical and experimental study of transonic panel flutter. Two configurations were explored: clean and pinned geometry. The former is a panel clamped on all sides, while the configuration with pin also includes an additional constraint in the middle of the panel. This case study was inspired by the skin-panel design used for Skylon, a single-stage-to-orbit concept vehicle. In Skylon, a series of discrete supports are used to stiffen thinner skin panels to maximize the payload; thus, there is a need to explore the dynamic stability of this configuration also in the transonic regime. To this end, a panel clamped on all sides and with a pin in the center was tested in the transonic wind tunnel, where time-accurate displacement measurements were performed using laser sensors. From the analysis of experiments and numerical simulations, transonic flutter appeared to be a one-way type of interaction, where the aerodynamic pressure characteristic is not affected by the structure deformation. This is due to small panel displacements, typically two orders of magnitude smaller than the panel thickness. Higher natural modes, with a frequency close to the aerodynamic fluctuating pressure, are directly excited. Generally, the additional constraint in the center does not seem to add significant benefits in terms of dynamic stability in the transonic regime. A numerical parametric study showed that for external Mach numbers ranging approximately between 0.8 and 1.2, flutter oscillation amplitude is the largest for low Mach speeds.
