Abstract
Induced polarization (IP) method is part of the geoelectric methods that is often used in metal exploration. Data interpretation from induced polarization survey requires a fast and efficient forward modeling algorithm. In this study, a forward modeling of induced polarization scheme for 2D environment was developed. The finite element method (FEM) was used for calculating the IP responses for a 2D subsurface resistivity model. The FEM was implemented in the scheme by using the Galerkin approach. The modeling scenarios were divided into two: the first is a case where the subsurface was a homogeneous resistivity whereas the values of injected current were varied. The second case is where the subsurface posses two resistivity layers with a constant value at the injected current. The result show that at a constant current, the electric potential differences are proportional to the resistivity value. Whereas for the two-layers case, the increase in the potential difference is proportional to the increase in resistivity and that current penetrates deeper in the resistive layer.

Abstract
The Physical Protection System (PPS) plays an important role to ensuring the security of each nuclear facility from theft, sabotage and other illegal actions. Evaluation of the effectiveness of the PPS must be performed periodically to ensure that the PPS objective requirements are met and we can obtain the reliable PPS. The objective of this study is to evaluate the physical protection system performance using adversary-path analysis for hypothetical nuclear reactor facility in anticipating attacks with the highest consequences. We perform the calculation of several adversary-path based on sabotage scenario using a computer model. The calculation results provide feedback for the PPS designer whether to accept the current design or will strengthen it to obtain the reliable PPS.

Abstract
Machine Learning is an artificial intelligence system, where the system has the ability to learn automatically from experience without being explicitly programmed. The learning process from Machine Learning starts from observing the data and then looking at the pattern of the data. The main purpose of this process is to make computers learn automatically. In this study, we used machine learning to predict molecular atomization energy. We use two methods namely Neural Network and Extreme Gradient Boosting. Both methods have several parameters that must be adjusted so the predicted value of the atomization energy of the molecule has the lowest possible error. We are trying to find the right parameter values for both methods. For the neural network method, it is quite difficult to find the right parameter value because it takes a long time to train the model of the neural network to find out whether the model is good or bad, while for the Extreme Gradient Boosting method the time needed to train the model is shorter, so it is quite easy to find the right parameter values for the model. This study also looked at the effects of the modification on the dataset with the output transformation of normalization and standardization then removing molecules containing Br atoms and changing the entry in the Coulomb matrix to 0 if the distance between atoms in the molecule exceeds 2 angstrom.

Abstract
Increasing demand and use of energy and declining energy source make today’s society have to do energy efficiency. The main focus of this energy efficiency research is AC (Air Conditioner) system because it contributes the most of total power consumption of building. The problems hindering the energy efficiency process on AC system is that the sensor in the AC system doesn’t represent the room’s thermal condition, parameters relevant to the thermal condition are not considered, and the control used only uses temperature optimization without considering energy efficiency. The solution proposed is designing a system that can overcome the problems with Internet of Things (IoT) technology. Other than physics modelling on thermal characteristics using thermodynamics and heat transfer concepts, Artificial Neural Network is also used to manage control part of the system. This research is conducted using experiment method on AC system and room of IoT Laboratory, Department of Physics, Institut Teknologi Bandung. The study on the effects of Duty Cycle (DC) and difference between outdoor and indoor temperature on thermal characteristics value, time needed to obtain thermal characteristics, the effects of DC and outdoor temperature on indoor temperature, the effects of room occupancy on thermal characteristics value, and control result have been conducted. The control has been tested: the average temperature is 21.98$^0$C on outdoor temperature value about 27$^0$C, the temperature range is 21.98$^0$C $pm$ 1.7$^0$C, and the saving obtained is 60%.

Abstract
The flocking phenomenon has been exploring in many points of view. In simulating a flocking, there are some models that capable describing it in a quantitive way such as the Vicsek model. In nature, Instead of a bird pay attention to all of the birds while doing flock, the bird only has to pay attention to the nearest-neighbor. It is costly during the simulation if a particle has to check its location relative to the whole of particles. Therefore, we serve an optimization method to handle it. There is quadtree, a tree data structure that will take a space then section it in four sections so on. This paper shows the approach by simulation of the large-scale flocking system to be more efficient.

Abstract
Two floating spheres are attracted to each other, if the initial separation distance is less than several times of diameter. This is also affected by portion of immersed volume of the sphere. The interaction between the two spheres is produced by unbalanced surface tension of each ball with the surrounding fluid. Position of each ball is observed using video camera and then the information is extracted using a in-house software based on OpenCV library. Due to difficulty of maintaining reproducible initial conditions, one the spheres sometimes moves to approach to the second, and not both move to aproach each other. In all these cases spheres position is transformed to center of mass position so that all position data as function of time will show a symmetry with center of mass position. Taking differential with respect to time two times, acceleration of each sphere will be obtained. The this information form of interaction can be deducted. A simulation using molecular dynamics method and theoretical approach will show the relation between form of interaction and the related acceleration function of time.

Abstract
As we know, human need of energy increase time to time. In order to fulfill human necessity of energy, in unison with the urge to provide long term clean energy for earth sustainability, building Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) seems to be the right answer. In the effort to support non-proliferation treaty, scientist had been developing fast reactor burning scheme design CANDLE (Sekimoto, 2010) which uses natural Uranium as its fuel. The Modified CANDLE (MCANDLE) as the modification of the previous CANDLE scheme has become the object of this research. Modified CANDLE divide the burning core into several discreet regions. This research uses Natural Uranium-Carbide and Natural Thorium-Carbide as fuel and Helium gas as coolant which was applied to an axial MCANDLE scheme reactor. The core size has been varied to optimize the design. Neutronic analysis has been applied to this research with burn up level, effective multiplication factor (k eff), infinite multiplication factor (k inf), and conversion ratio (CR) as observed parameter. Uranium percentage in fuel has been varied to reduce undesired power peaking. Neutronic calculation has been calculated using SRAC while the core design was calculated using FI-ITB-CH1 program. Combination of Uranium Carbide and Uranium Carbide – Thorium Carbide mixture fuel has reduced the power peaking factor of the reactor. Optimization has been reached as the radial length of the reactor set to 180cm and the axial length to 303cm.

Abstract
UTOP Accident is among important hypothetical accident in Pb-Bi Cooled Fast Reactors. In order to investigate the inherent safety performance of a Pb-Bi Cooled fast reactor a computer code to analyze Unprotected rod run-out Transient Overpower Accident (UTOP accident) is necessary. In this study improvement and parallelization of UTOP accident analyze code for Pb-Bi cooled fast reactors has been performed. The code adopts coupling of space time kinetic and transient thermal hydraulic analysis. Adiabatic approach of space time kinetic is adopted. The mathematical equations are discreetized and implemented on cluster computers using fortran language and MPI approach. The main challenge is the parallelization of the relatively tight coupled part of the program. The space time kinetic is basically relatively tightly coupled part so that difficult to be parallelized. On the other hands multi channels analysis in the thermal hydraulic part is particularly simpler for parallelization process. In general the program can significantly accelerated in the cluster computer with up to 40 core

Abstract
Indonesian Legumes and Tuber Crops Research Institute has established basic procedure for cultivating soybean to reduce the problems regarding soybean yield in Indonesia. Using the established procedure, this study is conducted in order to define the mathematical model of Glycine max. (soybean) var. Anjasmoro plant growth. Physiological parameters such as plant height, number of leafs, flowering age, pods emerging age, plant mass, shoot to root ratio, number of pods, pod mass, total nitrogen content in plant tissue and growing media, and the water requirement during cultivation process are also being observed to obtain supporting data needed. Cultivation process is started by preparing inceptisol soil added with cow manure (with 2 tons/hectare dosage) before planting, and synthetic fertilizer in 3 weeks after plating (WAP) that consists of urea (with 25 kg/hectare), SP-36 (with 50 kg/hectare dosage), and KCl (with 75 kg/hectare dosage). Water supply is adjusted to the plant’s field capacity and is given manually once every two days. Plant’s field capacity is calculated using Blanney-Criddle method. Insecticide Matador with dosage of 1ml/L and fungicide Dithane with dosage of 3g/L are used for pest eradication during the cultivation process. Cultivation process is done using 2 main plots, each has 39 polybags. Plants and growing medium observation are done once every week within 13 weeks by taking samples from 3 polybags of each plot randomly chosen. During the cultivation process, average rate of total nitrogen content in growing medium varies from 0.20% to 4.01%, the lowest rate occurs before additional material added to soil, while the highest rate occurs at 1 WAP, in line with nitrogen fixing microbe population that is also on its highest rate at the same time. The average rate of total nitrogen content in plant tissue varies from 1.80% to 8.07%, with the lowest rate occurs at 8 WAP along with flower emergence, and the highest rate occurs at 4 WAP when the plant is still on its active vegetative phase. Total nitrogen content is affected by total population of nitrogen fixing microbe that varies from 0.27 x 106 CFU/ml to 16.87 x 106 CFU/ml. Average rate of water required by soybean plants during cultivation process varies from 0,4902mm/day to 3,8017mm/day, and it most strongly affects on plant’s vegetative phase, flower emergence phase, and pod filling phase. The mathematical model of Glycine max. (soybean) var. Anjasmoro plant growth based on its height increase is y = 91107ln(x) - 34.662, and based on its number of pods increase is y = 63.751ln(x) - 36.048.

Abstract
Molecular dynamics is a method to simulate movements of atoms or particles in a system. The simulation is computationally complex and the performance heavily depends with the computer. As such, a high performance computation system is necessary to achieve the optimal efficiency. One of the solutions is by using parallel computation to speed up the simulation running time. In this research, we use CUDA API developed by Nvidia, to create a parallel molecular dynamics simulation with the help of Nvidias own GPUs. The system used in this simulation is the noble gas particles, i.e. Helium, Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon, and Radon. Interactions between particles is modeled by using Lennard-Jones potential and the equations of motion which are integrated with velocity Verlet method. The system is then benchmarked by making comparisons of the execution time between the serial and parallel simulation on CUDA cores. The running time of the parallel simulation is faster than the serial one.

Abstract
Liquid metal cooled fast reactor is a reactor that included in the Generation IV reactor. Some liquid metal that has been used as fast reactor coolant are sodium (Na), Pb, and Pb-Bi. Based on several studies, Pb-based coolant shows better neutronic performance than Na. Currently, there are many studies related to the utilization of Pb208, which is one of the Pb stable isotopes as a coolant material. It is due to Pb208 has the lowest neutron absorption cross-section value among other stable Pb isotopes even compared to Pbnatural. Using pb208 isotope as a coolant can increase the k-eff value compared to natural Pb. In this research, a neutronic performance comparison between Pbnat and Pb208 coolant will be performed in a fast reactor with modified CANDLE burnup scheme. A reactor with a modified CANDLE burnup scheme could directly use natural uranium as fuel. The neutronic calculation performed using the SRAC2006 program. The utilization of liquid Pb208 as coolant can achieved the highest k-eff value among all coolant materials. Hence, the used of excellent coolant material in a reactor with a modified CANDLE burnup scheme is expected to has a superior neutron economy.

Abstract
The high temperature engineering test reactor (HTTR) is a block-type high-temperature gas-cooled reactor (HTGR) developed by Japan. This reactor is one of the Generation IV nuclear energy systems and can operate with coolant outlet temperature of 950°C. In this study, the neutronic analysis is carried out for the HTTR reactor with thorium fuel and helium coolant. As thorium has no naturally occurring fissile isotope, it requires other fissile isotope to sustain the nuclear chain reaction. In this study, U-233 is used as the fissile isotope. The fuel blocks used in the core vary from 3.3% to 7.5% of U-233 content. Several neutronic parameters are analyzed, such as effective multiplication factor, conversion ratio, neutron spectrum, power density distribution, and power peaking factor. The calculations are performed by PIJ and CITATION modules on SRAC2006 code with JENDL-4.0 as the nuclear data library. The cell-burnup calculations are conducted with two models, with and without microscopic cell definition in the fuel compact. The core calculations are conducted with triangular-z and hexagonal-z core geometry.

Abstract
In this research free surface motion governed by the shallow water equations is considered. A numerical scheme based on the finite element method, which is incorporated in the open source FreeFEM is used to simulate several wave phenomena. By carefully set the corresponding initial condition as well as boundary conditions, several numerical computations were conducted. Numerical simulations presented here are standing wave in a closed basin, wave shoaling over a decreasing depth as well as wave refraction. In all cases above, the existing analytical formula were used to validate the numerical results.

Abstract
Further study to simplify the modeling of pebble bed high temperature reactor core (HTR) has been widely developed before. From last calculation on actual fueled pebble to dummy ratio, 57:43, some variation of TRISO unit and Pebble unit is modelled to achieve its first criticality configuration. In this paper, some model that use 27000 pebble with 57:43 ratio and 100% fueled pebble is created to be used on burnup calculation se we could compare its K-EFF and nuclide inventory of it. From this burnup calculation, we could see that SC TRISO unit gives us faster calculation time followed by HCP TRISO unit and then FCC TRISO unit. On the other hand, BCC pebble unit had some consistent deviation from other pebble unit, and we need more study to know the reason behind it. It could be seen that if there are some dummy pebbles inside the reactor, then the deviation would be higher than if there is just fueled pebble inside reactor. On 57:43 ratio, absolute average deviation of K-EFF on burnup calculation is lower than 2% and 10% for nuclide inventory (mass). On 100% fueled pebble, its below 0.15% on K-EFF absolute deviation and below 8% on nuclide inventory deviation.

Abstract
Global Warming become more important issue in the recent decade. Related to this issue, energy conversion efficiency play important role in achieving economical design of NPP and directly influences thermal pollution to the environment as for the case of gas fueled power plants which becomes very competitive with advanced high temperature gas turbine system. In this study the feasibility to develop high temperature modular gas cooled fast reactors have been investigated. In this presentation the focus is in preliminary assessment of depressurized accident case/ High Temperature Ceramic materials are intensively used for structural materials. In this analysis assessment to estimate maximum temperature in the core during depressurized accident has been performed by employing radiation as the final mechanism to ttransfer the heat from the center of the core to the outer part. The natural circulation of air is assumed to be the final heat removal mechanism from the outer part of the core. Two dimensional R-Z geomentry calculation model has been employed to simulate the heat removal mechanism during depressurized accident. The results shows that by proper adjustment of the material and core design parameter it can be obtained designs which can survive depressurized accident inherently.

Abstract
A preliminary conceptual design is conducted for 100 MW(electric) of Molten Salt Reactor (MSR) fueled with 233U. Neutronic parameters analysis of 100 MWe MSR are carried out by using the Monte Carlo method with MCNP6 program. The reactor can be operated for about 5 years without refueling and any exchange of graphite moderator. The unique liquid salt fuel form increases the reactor proliferation resistance because all radioactive isotopes in the core are hard to be separated. This one is a characteristic of Generation IV nuclear power system. The chemical compositions of fuel salt are LiF-BeF2-ThF4-233UF4. The Thorium utilization in the fuel provided sustainable energy in the reactor due to the breeding capability. The 233U concentration was varied to get the reactor criticality changes. The result showed that 233U loaded in fuel concentration is about 0.9 %mol for burnup 6.33GWd/MTU. This calculation is expected to be a preliminary analysis of the MSR development for future energy.

Abstract
Preliminary study on Modified CANLDE burnup strategy utilization in a helium cooled fast reactor have been performed. The Modified CANDLE burnup strategy is applied so that the reactor can operate using natural uranium fuel. Modified CANDLE burn-up strategy is applied in the radial direction because it is technically easier to implement. In modified CANDLE burnup strategy in radial direction, the active core is subdivided into ten regions with the same volume in the radial direction. When startup, each region contains fuel with different composition. The first region contains natural uranium (fresh fuel). The second region contains fuel from natural uranium burning for 10 years, the third region contains fuel from natural uranium burning for 20 years and so on. In this study, the Modified CANDLE burnup strategy in radial direction was designed using the MCNPX program. The fuel to be used is obtained from the calculation results of 2006 SRAC code system and FI ITB CH1 program. In the process, fuel will be shifted from one region to another until all regions are filled with new fuel. The result of calculation shows the reactor is in critical condition.

Abstract
Gas cooled fast reactor-GFR is one of six types of generation IV reactors. The long terms goals of the Generation IV reactor is to develop a safe, proliferation-resistant nuclear system. Minimizing on enrichment of U-235 is one way to avoid the proliferation issue. Now, we even use directly natural uranium as the fuel in reactor core with applying Modified CANDLE burn up scheme. In this study variations of fuel region movement with modified CANDLE burn up scheme in radial direction of GFR was conducted. There are three variation of fuel region movement scheme that used in this study. The power range 300-550 MWTh. The neutronics calculation was performed by SRAC (PIJ-Citation) module. The result of calculation show that one of the movement scheme provides a critically value with 0,3% excess reactivity for begining of life (BOL) conditions.

Abstract
Energy efficiency is an effort to reduce energy use in doing work. One technology that can be used for energy efficiency is the Internet of Things (IoT). In this study, the energy savings of the room cooling system were reviewed. In order to achieve energy savings in the room cooling system, it takes an room cooling control that can perform energy efficiency while still considering thermal comfort. In this research, a study of the thermal characteristics of the room using IoT technology was carried out. From the results of this study, thermal parameters can be obtained from the room. This parameters is then processed into input variable to obtain the room cooling system control function using Machine Learning. A cyber physical system modeling has been carried out on room cooling systems with IoT technology. This system is able to get the value of room temperature, room humidity, ambient temperature, and the use of room cooling power and store them in Big Data. Energy efficiency control is done by using Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) method on compressor unit. In this paper, the performance of the control system is studied by variating the control period and set point temperature. Energy efficiency by the control reaches 73\% on outdoor temperature about 30$^0$C, the indoor temperature range obtained is $pm$ 0.4$^0$C from set point temperature value, and the temperature results achieved by the control has 0.02$^0$C difference with the temperature desired by the user.
