ANALISIS PERBANDINGAN OPTIMASI KECEPATAN YII FRAMEWORK DAN LARAVEL
Authors: Karnyoto Andrea Stevens
Published: July 2020

PHP adalah bahasa scripting berbasis web yang paling populer didunia karena  fleksibilitas dan  kemudahan penggunaan, tetapi sering kali melakukan coding menggunakan PHP menjadi agak monoton dan berulang-ulang maka dibutuhkan sebuah PHP framework untuk dapat membantu. Dibutuhkan penelitian untuk melakukan perbandingan kecepatan antara 2 buah PHP framework populer yaitu Yii dan Laravel sehingga pada akhirnya pengembang aplikasi web dapat melihat salah satu keunggulan dari framework tersebut.

Membuat sebuah program "Hello World" sebagai patokan untuk mengidentifikasi beban berlebihan dan yangterkecil dari masing-masing framework(Yii dan Laravel). Sebenarnya cara ini tidak terlalu efektif karena dalam pengembangan sebuah system informasi tidak sesederhana tampilan “hello word”. Namun tes ini dapat mengidentifikasi waktu minimum yang dihabiskan oleh masing-masing kerja framework untuk melakukan tugas sederhana. Tugas seperti itu merupakan persyaratan minimum untuk setiap kerja framework untuk memproses satu permintaan. Selain itu juga peneliti melakukan penelitian secara pencarian informasi untuk membandingkan kedua framework tersebut.

Sisi kinerja Yii framework memiliki waktu proses yang lebih baik dibandingkan Laravel, begitu juga fitur-fitur yang dimilikinya. Laravel memiliki sistem routing yang lebih baik dari Yii. Untuk pengaksesan database dan penggunaan memori maka Yii lebih baik dibandingkan dengan Laravel.  Maka kesimpulan utama dari penelitian ini adalah Yii framework memiliki lebih banyak keunggulan dibandingkan Laravel saat kedua PHP framework ini dioptimasi.

EVALUASI KINERJA KAPASITAS SALURAN DRAINASE RAWAN BANJIR KOTA BALIKPAPAN (STUDI KASUS PERUMAHAN GRAHA POLTEKBA)
Authors: Pongtuluran E. H. , Huda M.
Published: July 2020

Perumahan Graha Poltekba Balikpapan merupakan kawasan yang tengah berkembang namun terkadang masih mengalami masalah banjir. Penyebab terjadinya banjir adalah dampak dari perubahan tata guna lahan dan kondisi eksisting dari saluran tersebut, apabila terjadi hujan dengan intensitas besar maka saluran drainase akan meluap memenuhi ruas jalan di beberapa bagian kawasan. Oleh sebab itu, penanganan efektif akibat padatnya pemukiman yang ada yaitu melalui evaluasi kinerja saluran drainase yang ada. Pada penelitian ini diawali survey dimensi dan kondisi drainase pada lokasi penelitian dalam penentuan kapasitas saluran eksisting. Kemudian dilakukan analisis intensitas curah hujan dan kapasitas penggunaan lahan menggunakan bantuan software Arcgis 2.0 dalam menghitung besar debit rencana yang akan masuk dalam saluran drainase. Hasil keduanya lalu dibandingkan, apabila kapasitas saluran lebih besar daripada debit rencana maka dapat dikatakan saluran tersebut masih dapat bekerja secara efektif, namun apabila sebaliknya maka perlu dilakukan perubahan dimensi pada saluran tersebut. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan terdapat dua saluran yang memiliki kapasitas yang kurang terhadap debit rencana yang akan masuk pada saluran, yakni pada saluran P3 dimana kapasitas hanya dapat menampung debit aliran sebesar 0,982 m3/s sedangkan debit rencana aliran adalah 1,160 m3/s dan pada saluran S8 dengan kapasitas 0,176 m3/s sedangkan debit rencana 0,778 m3/s sehingga perlu dilakukan koreksi dimensi pada saluran tersebut. Dalam analisis perubahan dimensi didapatkan ketinggian pada saluran P3 adalah 1,181 meter dari yang awalnya hanya 1,00 meter dan ketinggian pada saluran S8 adalah 1,765 meter dari tinggi awal hanya 0,40 meter.
ANALISIS POTENSI TEKNOLOGI PEMANEN KABUT (FOG HARVESTING) SEBAGAI ALTERNATIF SUMBER DAYA AIR TERBARUKAN DI KABUPATEN TORAJA UTARA (STUDI KASUS: DESA BENTENG MAMULLU, KECAMATAN KAPALAPITU)
Authors: Ambali Dian Pranata Putra , Andi Lolo Jumiarti
Published: July 2020

Air merupakan sumber daya alam yang vital bagi keberlangsungan hidup manusia bahkan semua makhluk hidup. Namun saat ini, masalah utama yang dihadapi oleh sumber daya air ada dua yaitu kuantitas dan kualitas air. Pada saat musim kemarau, kuantitas air yang tersedia tidak dapat mencukupi kebutuhan air sehingga diperlukan konservasi terhadap sumber daya air alternatif terbarukan untuk pemenuhan kebutuhan air. Kabut memiliki potensi sebagai sumber alternatif air tawar jika dapat dipanen secara maksimal. Pemanen kabut adalah teknologi inovatif berdasarkan fakta bahwa air dapat dikumpulkan dari kabut di bawah kondisi iklim yang menguntungkan. Kabupaten Toraja Utara merupakan dataran tinggi yang memiliki potensi kabut yang dapat dipanen namun belum pernah dilakukan sehingga diperlukan penelitian awal untuk mengetahui seberapa besar potensi air yang dapat dipanen dari kabut.  Penelitian ini menggunakan model Standard Fog Collector sebagai alat pemanen kabut. Pemilihan model didasarkan pada kemudahan perakitan alat dan biaya pembuatan serta biaya perawatan yang lebih ekonomis. Alat pemanen kabut yang digunakan berukuran 2m x 1m dibuat sebanyak dua buah yang dipasang saling tegak lurus (bentuk L) agar dapat menangkap kabut secara maksimal dari semua arah angin yang nantinya membawa kabut. Penelitian dilakukan dengan mengukur volume air yang dihasilkan setiap harinya dari alat pemanen kabut. Volume air yang diperhitungkan hanya pada hari dimana tidak terjadi hujan sehingga air yang terkumpul pada penampungan merupakan air yang berasal dari kabut saja.  Volume air yang dikumpulkan dari alat pemanen kabut selama 3 bulan penelitian pada bulan pertama sebanyak 1.410 ml, bulan kedua sebanyak 2.560 ml, dan pada bulan ketiga sebanyak 3.750 ml. Rata-rata volume air harian yang diperoleh pada bulan pertama sebanyak 54,23 ml, bulan kedua sebanyak 86,45 ml dan pada bulan ketiga sebanyak 117,10 ml. Volume air pada bulan pertama lebih kecil dibandingkan dengan 2 bulan berikutnya. Hal ini dikarenakan pada bulan pertama sering terjadi hujan sehingga volume air yang masuk ke penampungan tidak diperhitungkan. Selain itu, pada bulan pertama intensitas kabut juga tidak sebanyak pada bulan kedua dan ketiga. Berdasarkan data yang diperoleh, volume air yang dikumpulkan relatif sangat sedikit sehingga tidak bisa dimanfaatkan untuk pemenuhan kebutuhan air sehari-hari. Volume air yang dihasilkan dapat dimanfaatkan untuk mensubsidi kebutuhan air tanaman yang tidak terlalu banyak membutuhkan air. Faktor yang paling berpengaruh pada volume air yang dihasilkan adalah luas bidang tangkap kabut dan penempatan alat pemanen kabut.

Twenty-four patients were randomized to receive home-based ADL and hospital-based traditional rehabilitation. Our findings showed that there was a statistically significant improvement and small effect size in visual perception. No significant improvement was found in cognition, but small effect size was noticed.

Authors: Oliveira Debora , Frisby Erika , Sapp Carly , McKnight Whitney , Bryant Calvin
Published: July 2020

Date Presented 03/27/20

This mixed-method study examines fall prevention from the perspective of caregivers of community-dwelling older adults. Both qualitative and quantitative questions were used to explore the caregivers’ unique perspectives on home safety, number of recent falls, and hospitalizations. A high correlation was found between caregivers’ perceptions of safety and the number of falls. The study suggests ideas for OTs to increase safety for older adults aging in place at home.

Authors: Meyer Jessica , Arnette Chad , Lam Linh , Schulz Emily , Voytek Mary , Bartosch Marissa , Selland Jessica , Thueson Madeline , Kang Alice , Brooks Elizabeth , Hernreich Stephanie
Published: July 2020

Date Presented 03/27/20

This study compares aggregate data from two cohorts of older adults moving into independent living at an LPC to determine differences in acuity levels. Scores from established measures of cognition and physical quality of life, percent needing hospitalization, and percent moving to a higher level of care were compared. Results show residents are moving in at higher levels of acuity, thus demonstrating a need for OT intervention with older adults for better transition to LPCs.

Effects of Intention Formation Demands and Encoding Strategies on Prospective Memory (PM) Performance in Parkinson’s Disease (PD)
Authors: Taylor Elinor , Foster Erin
Published: July 2020

Date Presented 03/27/20

We assessed the effects of forming multiple intentions, task switching, and encoding strategies during intention formation on PM performance in PD. We found that PD participants were preferentially impaired in forming multiple intentions at once and that encoding strategies were particularly effective for addressing this deficit. These findings identify a novel PM deficit in PD and support clinical use of encoding strategies.
