The East Java Province has experienced a significant surge in number of confirmed cases of COVID-19. This study endeavors to investigate the potential correlation between weather conditions and the incidence of number of confirmed cases of COVID-19 in East Java. To achieve this, a nonparametric regression model, specifically, the Negative Binomial Regression (NBR) model based on the least squares spline estimator, was utilized. The outcomes of the study indicate that the Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) of nonparametic regression model is 0.30. Meanwhile, the MAPE for the parametric regression model is 0.34. The results show that a nonparametric regression model approach is better than parametric regression model approach. The study establishes that the truncated spline estimator based NBR model represents the best fit, with an MLCV value of -256.71. The findings of the study suggest that a temperature less than 21.75°C is associated with a decrease of 13.28 number of confirmed cases of COVID-19 per each 1°C increase, while a temperature between 21.75°C and 25.78°C is linked to an increase of 6.85 number of confirmed cases of COVID-19 per each 1°C increase. In contrast, a temperature greater than 25.78°C is associated with a decrease of 139.42 number of confirmed cases of COVID-19 per each 1°C increase. Similarly, a wind speed less than 5.57 m/s is related to a decrease of 12.99 number of confirmed cases of COVID-19 per each 1 m/s increase, whereas a wind speed between 5.57 m/s and 8.99 m/s is associated with a decrease of 10.29 number of confirmed cases of COVID-19 per each 1 m/s increase. Furthermore, a wind speed greater than 8.99 m/s is linked to a decrease of 19.16 number of confirmed cases of COVID-19 per each 1 m/s increase. The study provides evidence that higher temperatures and wind speeds result in a slower rise in the incidence of the number of confirmed cases of COVID-19. Consequently, it is recommended that the local government remains vigilant du

The use of Moringa leaf extract as an instant drink is an innovation of a local food product to help girl adolescent that are already menstruating to prevention iron deficiency anemia. The purpose of this study was to determine the optimization of the instant drink formula enriched with Moringa leaf extract using the Expert D-Optimal Design. The research stages were conducted by: (1) preparation of the Moringa leaf extract, (2) determination of the fillers from cassava flour, modification cassava flour, and dextrins, (3) characterization of the instant drinks with selected fillers, (4) Moringa leaf enriched instant drink formula optimization using the program of Design Expert-12 the Mixture Design method. The research results based on the prediction of the program of Design Expert-12 show that the optimized formula from 38.01% moringa leaf extrac and 29.94% dextrins with desirability value is 0.521. Verification result has a water soluble time of 17.54 seconds; water insoluble part 0.002%; yield 61.15%; bulk density 0.72 g/mL; 64.65 degrees of brightness; moisture content 1.32%; ash content 0.27%; pH 3.22; antioxidant activity 0.00027; tannin content 0.07%; iron content 3.47 μg/mL and organoleptic values include color 4.15; aroma 3.99; taste 3.94; and overall 4.02.

This research aims to analyze the effect of ozone exposure time and lard mixture on the polarization angle of transmission of olive oil. The study uses a transmission polarization method with a laser (λ = 532 nm) as a light source. The research sample in the form of olive oil mixed with lard at a concentration of 10, 20, 40, and 80%, with an ozone exposure time of 0-30 minutes. The sample is subjected to external electric fields with variations from 0-4.5 x 102 kV/m to increase the change's polarization angle. The results showed that the change in polarization angle would change linearly with the increase in lard concentration with olive oil. Olive oil with a low concentration of lard (10%) experienced an increase in the change in polarization angle with a value of 0.31 ° due to the effect of 90 minutes of ozone exposure. In general, the results of the study showed that increased concentrations of lard, ozone exposure time, electric field strengths caused an increase in changes in the polarization angle in a mixture of olive oil and lard.

Aerodynamic stability is a condition required in the planning of long span bridges. Not all countries have detailed planning rules for aerodynamic stability. One of the rules that is often referred to for long span bridge planning is the Design Rules for Aerodynamic Effects on Bridges BD 49/01. This paper will discuss the effect of the value of the average wind speed per hour (Vr), mass per unit length (m) and frequency (f) on The Aerodynamic Susceptibility Parameter (Pb), critical velocity of vortex excitation (Vcr), vibration amplitude for vortex excitation (ymax), critical speed for galloping and stall flutter (Vg), and critical speed for classical flutter (Vf) refer to Design Rules for Aerodynamic Effects on Bridges BD 49/01. The value of the average wind speed per hour (Vr), mass per unit length (m) and frequency (f) will be varied for case study of Teluk Mesjid Bridge a steel arch bridgelocated in Riau Province, Sumatra Island of Indonesia.

This paper presents the development of an add-on for CAD system generating assembly structure automatically based on a given Bill of Materials (BOM). The BOM in Excel format is scanned by the system and the system arrange 3D CAD files into assembly at in CATIA V5 CAD system automatically. This program has been tested and succeeded well at compiling 3D assembly based on 3D part file data that is available or not available. If the 3D file is not available then the 3D assembly is still generated according to the assembly structure listed on Excel file but its 3D representation does not appear.

Unutilized hazardous and toxic waste requires management and landfill costs. Hazardous and toxic paint waste can be used as additional raw material to make brick products through solidification. Concrete bricks are made from a mixture of cement (1 part) and sand (14 parts) with the addition of water for mixing purpose. The mixture composition is 0,1,2,4,6, and 8% by using paint waste as the raw material added. Then, the quality of concrete brick products is tested on compressive strength and water permeability. The test results can be used as recommendations for the use of paint waste into products and reduce waste management costs.

Red Kupang (Musculista senhausia) is one of the fisheries resources included in the bivalve class. Red Kupang is commonly found in the waters of Surabaya, Sidoarjo, Pasuruan, and the coast of the Madura Strait. The nutritional components contained in red mussel meat include 75.48% water content, 1.93% ash content, 15.02% protein, 6.17% fat, and 1.41% carbohydrate. The nutrient content of red mussels that can be utilized is protein. So that red mussels can be used as an alternative source of animal protein. For this reason, this research is carried out namely isolation of proteins against red mussels. Isolation can be carried out by means of extraction, where the pH and time of extraction affect this process. The research began with washing and drying the red mussels at 40oC until a constant weight (± 6 hours) was obtained. The second stage is making red mussel flour with 60 mesh particle size. The third step is the isolation of red mussel protein by extraction process that is 50 grams of red mussel flour homogenized in aquadest with a ratio of 1:10 w / v, then extraction is carried out at an alkaline pH (pH: 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13). at a temperature of 40 oC using a hot plate stirrer for 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 minutes. The results obtained the best conditions at pH 11 and 50 minutes extraction time with a protein content of 72.70%.
