Skewing of the rotor slot of a squirrel-cage induction machine has been commonly used since the beginning. However, little guidance is given regarding the principle of the working effect of the method, but even in such rare cases, the explanation does not cover the true physical reality. Consequently no formula exists for calculation of the…

Road surface coating using concrete paving block cement has been used for a long time. As an aggregate binding agent, asphalt can be made into paving blocks. Utilizing waste in the recycling process is an activity to control the sustainability of natural resources. Waste Engine Oil and Recycled Concrete Aggregate can be used as road…

Cybercriminal exploits integrity, confidentiality, and availability of information resources. Cyberattacks are typically invisible to the naked eye, even though they target a wide range of our digital assets, such as internet-connected smart devices, computers, and networking devices. Implementing network anomaly detection proves to be an effective method for identifying these malicious activities. The traditional anomaly…

Liver cancer is a major contributor to cancer-related mortality both in the United States and worldwide. A range of liver diseases, such as chronic liver disease, liver cirrhosis, hepatitis, and liver cancer, play a role in this statistic. Hepatitis, in particular, is the main culprit behind liver cancer. As a consequence, it is decisive to…

Among the development of technology, a large number of medical devices have been implemented in various forms for therapy and treatment. Remote controllability, real-time response, small size, and non-toxicity of the devices are the critically requirement to be operated in the blind, unstructured and fluidic environments of biomedical regions. Untethered soft swimming milli-robots have been…

The main contradiction identified in the study is that the existing scientific and methodological solves of economy development management processes does not create prerequisites for improving the efficiency of their work, the introduction of progressive technologies for material and moral stimulation of the work of performers and administrative and managerial personnel, advanced social mechanisms for…

The false nearest neighbors (FNN) method estimates the variables of a system by sequentially embedding a time series into a higher-dimensional delay coordinate system and finding an embedding dimension in which the neighborhood of the delay coordinate vector in the lower dimension does not extend into the higher, that is, a dimension in which no…

In this paper, we propose a highly accurate indoor position and direction estimation system using a simple fully connected deep neural network (DNN) model on Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) Received Signal Strength Indicators (RSSIs). Since the system’s ultimate goal is to function as an indoor navigation system, the system estimates the indoor position simultaneously as…

The Internet of Things (IoT) is the evolving paradigm of interconnectedness of objects with varied architectures and resources to provide ubiquitous and desired services. The popularization of IoT-connected devices facilitating evolution of IoT applications does come with security challenges. The IoT with the integration of wireless sensor networks possess a number of unique characteristics, so…

Our world is characterised by uncertainty and complex, relational structures that carry temporal information, yielding large dynamic probabilistic relational models at the centre of many applications. We consider an example from logistics in which the transportation of cargoes using vessels (objects) driven by the amount of supply and the potential to generate revenue (relational) changes…

This paper reports on the successful deposition of amorphous carbon nitride thin films (a-CNx). Samples were deposited using a DC-pulsed sputtering technique in CH3CH2OH-N2 atmosphere at constant pressure (1 Torr). Raman spectra were collected to investigate the bonding structure of the deposed thin films, while scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) were…

General relativity and its modified theories are unable to account for quantum mechanics and cannot explain dark matter or the origin of the gravitation. This paper presents a theory that describes how Newtonian gravitation originates at the level of the particle, and how particles induce gravitation and respond to the source of gravitation. This paper…

The increasingly rapid development of science and technology, as well as the influence of globalization has contributed to updates in educational so that one method taken by apply experiments in horticulture learning activities. This study aims to determine the effect of rice straw mulch on tomato production and the effectiveness of the implementation of this…

This paper aims to measure the acceptance level of Indonesian customers to JD.ID X retail and to reveal the driving factors of behavioral intention to shop at the retail. JD.ID X is new retail that implements a new shopping technology called Just walk-out technology (JWOT) also known as retail without a cashier. JWOT is one…

Forecasting the gold price movement’s volatility has essential applications in areas such as risk management, options pricing, and asset allocation. The multivariate model is expected to generate more accurate forecasts than univariate models in time series data like gold prices. Multivariate analysis is based on observation and analysis of more than one statistical variable at…

Disruptive innovation has created fast changes in the business environment and competition among companies, especially on information technology companies. Knowledge creation and entrepreneurial orientation are two variables that can improve firm performance. There is still limited study on how knowledge creation and entrepreneurial orientation both affects firm performance. This study aims to discuss how to…

The angle of attack is a critical flight parameter for commercial aviation aircraft, because automatic envelope protection systems rely on it to keep the aircraft within its safe flight envelope. Faulty measurements of the angle of attack could have catastrophic effects, leading to aircraft loss of control in flight and fatalities, as demonstrated by the…

NFC (Near Field Communication) is a contactless communication technology based on a radio frequency (RF) field using a base frequency of 13.56 MHz. NFC technology is perfectly designed to exchange data between two devices via simple touch gestures. RFID is the process of identifying an object directly by radio frequency. There are two important components…

Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) is the future of aviation. It is a vast system that provides situational awareness for the aviator and regulator at a very low cost and does so with the aid of multiple disparate systems working closely together and communicating with one another. ADS-B uses the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS/ GPS)…

The world is witnessing unprecedented advancements in ICT (Information & Communication Technology) related fields. These advancements are further boosted with the emergence of big data. It goes without saying that big data requires two major operations: storage and processing. The latter is usually provided through High-Performance Computing (HPC) which is delivered through two main venues:…

In an intelligent transportation system (ITS), time is a big challenge since processing a huge amount of data in a short time is very difficult, especially when the processed data is heterogeneous, consisting of a mixture of emergency data, normal data, and noise. In an ITS, an ambulance is one of the priority vehicles, and…

The current online shopping system does not provide the actual shopping experience to the users where they scroll through the web pages and select an item to purchase, which becomes monotonous soon and lacks the shopping experience. This paper describes the development of the SmartMart, a 3D shopping mart where the user can navigate around…

Atmospheric pressure plasma was used to treat polypropylene (PP) surfaces.
