To reduce the time necessary for determination of tsunami source parameters it is proposed to optimize the location of sensors system and to use only a part of the measured wave profile. Based on computation, it is possible to balance the number of sensors in use and the time period after the earthquake needed to…

Process mining is an innovative technique through which inefficiencies in production systems can be eliminated. This technique has therefore become very important internationally in recent years and is also useful for pursuing the improvement of production systems by extrapolating process knowledge from event logs recorded by information systems. Process mining has easy application in production…

The behavior of rivers’ hydrology and flow under changing climate has been an objective of interest for long time. In this study the impacts of climate change on streamflow of the Arkansas River will be investigated. The paper is an extension of work originally presented in ASET conference in Dubai. The Arkansas River is a…

The Coriolis force in the ocean at mid to high latitudes can cause significant deviation of flow over bottom topography, including formation of Taylor columns. Structures in a tidal zone will experience zero inertial current between every tidal change. Around periods of directional change, the Coriolis force may be tapped into for energy. Factors like…

Today, Drowning is the 3rd major cause for unintentional injury death accounting for 7% of deaths of all injury deaths. Drowning is a state of suffocation when water or other fluids accumulate the lungs, resulting in respiratory impairment, ultimately leading to death. The predominant problem during rescue operations of such accidental drowning is to locate…

Electrical energy shortage and expensive basic electricity costs are one of the problems that are occurred in Karimunjawa Island, Indonesia. The purpose of this research is to identify the potential of ocean currents energy as one of the alternatives to reduce the problem related to energy needs and to predict the electrical energy that can…

Source parameters of tsunami waves are an essential part of any modern tsunami warning system. Recalculation of a measured time series (wave profile obtained by a seabed-based pressure sensor) in terms of initial sea surface displacement at tsunami source is among the most (or) one of the promising approaches to be applied in a warning…

Panjang Island is one of the islands which is categorized as a small island and is located in Jepara District, Jepara Regency, Central Java Province. The problem faced by Panjang Island is erosion, which increasingly erodes the shoreline and begins to damage buildings on the beach. A solution that is effective enough to overcome erosion…

This paper proposes Halbach array PM linear generators for direct conversion of ocean or sea wave energy. This generator is proposed to be directly coupled to a reciprocating wave energy system which may be a valued alternative for pneumatic and hydraulic systems. In this research, air-cored permanent magnet PM linear generator has been optimally designed…

Collision risk index has been studied as the required quantitative values for decision-making of collision avoidance between ships. Recently, inference methods of the collision risk were proposed on the basis of the fuzzy theory because of being possible to collect data in real time. Existing fuzzy inference system was composed of only simulation results using…

The application of protective coatings is the primary method of protecting marine and offshore structures from corrosion. Coating breakdown and corrosion (CBC) assessment is a major aspect of coating failure management. Evaluation methods can result in unnecessary maintenance costs and a higher risk of failure. To achieve a comprehensive collection of data for CBC assessment,…
