Authors: Ciobanu Doriana , Szenko Anthony , Gligor Șerban , Ursu Theodora , Ianc Dorina
Published: August 2024

Introduction. Osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis affecting the global population, representing 69.7% of all cases, with the knee being the third most affected joint by osteoarthritis. Hip osteoarthritis has a higher prevalence in the elderly, being a significant cause of disability. Studies estimate a 25% risk of developing hip osteoarthritis in individuals with a life expectancy of 85 years. Physical therapy is the primary treatment method for both knee and hip osteoarthritis. It is effective at every stage of the disease, but its effectiveness decreases with the worsening of the pathology.

Aim. This study aims to highlight the effectiveness of a physical therapy program in the rehabilitation of patients with hip and knee osteoarthritis.

Material and Method. The study was conducted between 7.02.2022 - 19.05.2022 at the "Psiho Neuro Mag" Clinic in Oradea, on a group of 10 subjects with an average age of 58 ± 13.367 years, diagnosed with both hip osteoarthritis and knee osteoarthritis. The assessment of patients involved the evaluation of joint mobility (using a goniometer), muscle strength, and pain (VAS scale), conducted at the beginning and the end of the treatment. Additionally, patients’ quality of life was assessed using the OAKHQOL questionnaire at the start of the research and the end of it, after 3 months. The treatment program consisted of combined physical therapy with electrotherapy and massage.

Results. Following the application of the physical therapy program, it was proven to be effective in increasing hip mobility in all planes and improving knee mobility in flexion, as well as enhancing the strength of flexors, extensors, abductors, and internal rotators of the hip in the subjects under study. Moreover, the applied physical therapy program effectively reduced pain intensity and improved the quality of life, with a positive but statistically insignificant correlation between pain intensity and quality of life, in the sense that as pain intensity decreases, the life quality assessment questionnaire score also decreases.

Authors: Satria Dioda , Setiawan Aris , Darlenis Teti
Published: August 2024

This study aims to analyze the results of the arrangement of keroncong music performed by Congrock 17. Congrock 17 is a well-known progressive keroncong music group from Semarang City, Central Java, Indonesia. This study’s two musical works are the object of analysis: Keroncong Pemuda-Pemudi and Perdamaian. This study uses a musicological approach emphasizing the concepts of arrangement, freedom, expression, and musical form. These concepts determine how far Congrock 17 can create new characters and nuances in existing musical works. Musical considerations were made by Congrock 17 by keeping the fundamental nature of keroncong the same, especially in the use of musical instruments such as cak, cuk, bass, violin, and cello. As a result, the arrangement of old works by Congrong 17 was intended so that keroncong would develop more progressively, be liked by the younger generation, and avoid monotony.

Background: Rapid population growth is a pressing concern with widespread implications, including potential food and energy crises. To address this issue, the Indonesian government has implemented Family Planning (FP) programs. However, the total fertility rate (TFR) continues to rise. A high unmet need for family planning is a significant contributing factor. Unmet need for family planning is defined as the percentage of women of reproductive age, whether married or in a union, who have an unmet need for family planning. Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine the factors associated with the incidence of unmet need among women of reproductive age at the Padang City Community Health Center. Method: A cross-sectional methodology and analytical observational study design were used. The study included 95 non-pregnant women of reproductive age in Padang City. The sample size was determined using a quota sampling approach. Data were analyzed using the Chi-Square test with a 95% Confidence Interval (CI). Results: The results indicated that the p-value was 0.000, which is ≤ 0.05, indicating a significant correlation between knowledge, attitude, and the incidence of unmet need. Conclusion: These findings suggest that addressing these factors could be an effective strategy for decreasing the incidence of unmet need among women of reproductive age. Health providers need to raise awareness about family planning and enhance women's understanding of the importance of utilizing family planning services

This research introduces a prototype Disaster-affected Area Segmentation Application (DAS-Apps) designed to perform segmentation of disaster-affected areas based on latitude and longitude features (geo-positioning). The application functions to filter disaster information from social media, official government data from Badan Nasional Penanggulangan Bencana (BNPB), and disaster information submitted in real-time through DAS-Apps. The affected areas are mapped based on geo-positioning data, and then calculated using the Haversine Formula method to indicate when and how far-reaching the disaster events are perceived. In this study, DAS-Apps simulations were conducted using earthquake datasets (magnitude ≥ 5.0) from the Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics Agency (BMKG) during the months of November and December 2022, specifically earthquake data for the Cianjur region, Indonesia. The test results indicate that the DAS-Apps prototype can successfully carry out the area segmentation process based on the geo-positioning radius from the disaster information point, making it suitable for implementation in emergency response and disaster management application frameworks in future research.

Hidroponik sebagai metode urban farming mampu memenuhi kebutuhan sayuran segar di Indonesia. Budidaya tanaman hidroponik memiliki banyak keunggulan, antara lain tidak memerlukan lahan luas, bebas pestisida, tanaman lebih steril, dan tidak mudah terkena penyakit karena tidak menggunakan tanah. Keasaman larutan (pH) adalah parameter penting dalam budidaya hidroponik, karena mempengaruhi kemampuan tanaman menyerap unsur hara. Selain pH, kepekatan larutan nutrisi yang dinyatakan dalam Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) dengan satuan ppm juga perlu dikendalikan karena menyuplai nutrisi yang dibutuhkan tanaman. Dalam penelitian ini, pengendalian pH dan TDS menggunakan machine learning dengan metode regresi linear berganda serta teknologi edge computing dan cloud computing. Edge computing memungkinkan pemrosesan data real-time di perangkat sensor hidroponik, sedangkan cloud computing menyediakan kapasitas penyimpanan dan pemrosesan besar. Kombinasi kedua teknologi ini memungkinkan sistem pengendalian yang efisien, scalable, dan dapat diakses dari mana saja oleh petani. Berdasarkan hasil pengendalian via cloud, persamaan regresi untuk pengendalian TDS mampu bekerja dengan baik dengan akurasi 98,73% pada tandon 60 liter dan 95,95% pada tandon 100 liter. Selain itu, persamaan regresi untuk pengendalian pH juga bekerja dengan baik dengan akurasi 99,28% pada tandon 60 liter dan 99,69% pada tandon 100 liter.
 
Abstract
 
Hydroponics, as an urban farming method, can meet the demand for fresh vegetables in Indonesia. Hydroponic plant cultivation has many advantages, including not requiring large land areas, being pesticide-free, producing more sterile plants, and being less susceptible to disease since it does not use soil. The acidity of the solution (pH) is a crucial parameter in hydroponic cultivation because it affects the plant's ability to absorb nutrients. Besides pH, the concentration of the nutrient solution, expressed in Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) in ppm, also needs to be controlled as it supplies the nutrients required by plants. In this study, the control of pH and TDS utilizes machine learning with a multiple linear regression method and edge computing and cloud computing technologies. Edge computing allows real-time data processing at the hydroponic system's sensor devices, while cloud computing provides large storage and processing capacities. The combination of these technologies enables an efficient, scalable control system accessible to farmers from anywhere. Based on cloud control results, the regression equations for TDS control were found to be adequate and perform well with an accuracy of 98.73% for a 60-liter tank and 95.95% for a 100-liter tank. Additionally, the regression equations for pH control were also adequate and performed well with an accuracy of 99.28% for a 60-liter tank and 99.69% for a 100-liter tank.

We report on near-body measurements of temperature and nitric oxide (NO) concentration in the hypersonic flows around a cylindrical test article in the Caltech T5 reflected shock tunnel. Flow measurements were made at 50 kHz using tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy, deploying six lasers to probe an array of quantum state-specific transitions. Laser beams were positioned both in the freestream and behind the bow shock at specific locations deemed pertinent to computational fluid dynamics comparison and kinetic model evaluation. The fractions of laser beam pathlengths behind the shock in different spatial regions were also discerned, thus providing a measurement of shock location. This study consists of six total experiments (“shots”) across two Mach [Formula: see text] conditions, characterized by total enthalpies of 8 and [Formula: see text] and freestream velocities of 3.5 and [Formula: see text], respectively. Freestream measurements generally concur with prior works in the T5, but with some non-trivial differences. Shock-layer measurements span from 2000 to 6000 K and feature noteworthy and expected variety among different zones within the post-shock region. Thermal equilibrium is generally held throughout the flowfield, but chemical nonequilibrium is commonly observed. NO is the primary spectroscopic target, but measurements of carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, water, and atomic oxygen provide supplementary insights.
Characteristic Vibrational and Rotational Relaxation Times for Air Species from First-Principles Calculations
Authors: Torres Erik , Schwartzentruber Thomas E.
Published: August 2024

We present molecular-scale computational rotational-vibrational relaxation studies for [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text]. Characteristic relaxation times for diatom-diatom and diatom-atom interactions are calculated using direct molecular simulation (DMS), with ab initio potential energy surfaces (PESs) as the sole model input. Below approximately 8000 K our [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text] vibrational relaxation times agree well with the Millikan–White (M&W) correlation, but gradually diverge at higher temperatures. Park’s high-temperature correction produces a relatively steeper temperature rise compared to our estimates. DMS further shows that, with increasing temperature, the gap between vibrational and rotational relaxation times shrinks for all species. At [Formula: see text] their magnitudes become comparable and a clear distinction between both energy modes becomes meaningless. For other interactions, our DMS results differ substantially from the M&W correlation, both in magnitude and temperature dependence. Our predicted [Formula: see text] vibrational relaxation times are noticeably shorter due to vibration-vibration transfer. For [Formula: see text] we observe minimal temperature dependence. Our [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] predictions follow the M&W temperature trend at values roughly one order of magnitude smaller. For [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text] we generate partial data due to currently incomplete PES sets. These first-principles-derived relaxation times are useful for informing relaxation models in gas-kinetic and fluid-dynamics simulations of high-enthalpy flows.

This paper presents a preliminary result of anthropometric data of 30 males Indonesian industry workers. For this preliminary results, 16 dimensions in the standing posture were presented. For each dimension, the summary of mean, SD and percentile (5 and 95) were calcaluted which are useful as the basis for the design of products, machines and equipments. The data in this study were compared with those from previous studies i.e Norwegia, Nigeria and India. From data comparisons, Indonesian workers are shorter than those of other nationalities from Norwegia and Nigeria. Meanwhile, anthropometric characteristics of Indonesian workers were found to be similar with India workers. As for application, anthropometric data could be used as the basis to determine the proper dimensions of equipments and machines to be used by workers. Furthermore, the results could become a benchmark for other countries targeting products and machinery for Indonesia market.
