Shear wave velocity model using HVSR inversion beneath Bandar Lampung City

The horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratio (HVSR) method has been used to characterize site-effect parameters that are indispensable in seismic hazard and risk-reduction studies in urban areas and rapid land-use planning. This method is widely used because it is the cheapest and simplest geophysical method for the acquisition and processing stages. In subsequent developments, the HVSR method has been widely used to determine elastic rock parameters, particularly shear wave velocity (vS), through the HVSR curve inversion process. Furthermore, the vS structural model can be used to delineate the presence of complex geological structures, particularly faults and sedimentary basins. Bandar Lampung is a city in Lampung Province with many fault structures and groundwater basins to the south. There are 83 HVSR measurement points around Bandar Lampung for delineating the presence of fault structures and groundwater basins. We produced the HVSR curve from the measurement results and then performed an inversion process using the particle swarm optimization algorithm to obtain vS for the depth profile. Subsequently, from this profile, we produced a two-dimensional (2D) lateral and vertical model. The mean vS value was calculated from all the measurement points, and we found stiff soil layers reaching depths of approximately 5 m, with a value of vS < 330 m/s. A bedrock layer with a velocity exceeding 1250 m/s was visible at a depth of 100 m. Based on the 2D model, the vS structure shows that the city of Bandar Lampung is divided into two zones, with a NW-SE boundary. The north-middle-eastern part of the city consists of harder rocks. This harder rock is characterized by extremely high vS values, starting from a depth of 50 m. In contrast, the south-middle-west exhibits a low-moderate vS anomaly associated with groundwater basins SW of the city. From the 2D vS structural model, fault structures can be found along the city, characterized by a contrast of vS values from low to medium and from medium to high.

ABSTRACT Intention to revisit is an essential indicator for managers of tourist attractions, tourism activists, and tourism offices in a country. As we know, the income from the tourism sector is quite large for Indonesia and continues to grow. One kind of tourist attraction that could be develop is an artificial tourist attraction. One method to attract tourists that are widely developed is experiental marketing. This method was adopted in various provinces in Indonesia such as Bali, Bandung, and Yogyakarta, but unfortunately not yet in Lampung. This survey of 150 tourists used purposive sampling aims to see the effect of experiential marketing which included sense, feel, think, act, and related to the tourists' revisit intention in Lembah Hijau. Multiple regression and descriptive analysis showed that only thinking and relate affected tourists' revisit intentions. We found that with only a little research on experiential marketing in Indonesia, especially in Lampung Province, further development in terms of methods, analytical tools, and breadth of objects and subjects is widely open for the development of experiental marketing in the tourism sector of Indonesia and Lampung province of course. Keywords: Re-visit Intention, Experiental Marketing, Artificial Tourist Attraction, Tourism.

DETERMINATION OF MAINTENANCE PRIORITIES ON DISTRICT AND CITY ROADS IN LAMPUNG PROVINCE IN 2019 USING THE SIMPLE ADDITIVE WEIGHTING (SAW) METHOD

&lt;p&gt;Road infrastructure is a primary transportation asset extensively used by society to support economic, educational, and other activities. Consequently, roads function as a crucial supporter of the country's socio-economic activities. UU No. 38 of 2004 regarding Roads stipulates that roads are essential transportation facilities for the economy, social aspects, environment, politics, and defense and security. This research employs the Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) method to collect secondary data. The secondary data is obtained from the Department of Communication, Informatics, and Statistics of Lampung Province and processed to generate an assessment of road segments based on preference values. The research results indicate that, based on the criteria weighting, heavily damaged road conditions have the highest importance weight at 58.6%, followed by the criterion of average daily traffic. These findings suggest that road experts share a similar perspective on how road criteria are prioritized for specific regions. The ranking results using the SAW method with a Likert scale indicate a value of 97.34.&lt;/p&gt;

Investigating the Preference on Public Transport in a Metropolitan Area of Lampung Province, Indonesia

Metropolitan areas grow and develop as the region's population grows and travels to meet needs such as education, work, family matters, and business. Kotabumi and Bandar Lampung are two of the regions that have grown faster in recent years as a result of the construction of the trans-Sumatera toll road, while railway has been operating for more than two decades. The main objective of this works is to explore preference towards public transport with service quality attributes. The minibus mode or "travel" in Indonesia is defined as transportation services that pick up passengers. This study surveyed 384 commuters who used three modes of transportation: rail, bus, and minibus with relatively different service characteristics and trip purposes of school/college (35%), leisure (28%), family affairs (19%), work (14%), and business (4%) and represented predominantly an age range of 17 to 55 years (97%). The rail mode's utility value was 4.383, while the bus and minibus modes' utility values were 3.751 and 3.737, respectively. Because utility value reflects the level of user satisfaction with the overall attributes and service quality, the rail mode has a much higher probability of being chosen by respondents, with a probability level of 48.65%, compared to the bus and minibus modes, which have a probability level of 25.86% and 25.49%, respectively.

Challenges of Special Education Teachers in HOTS (Higher Order Thinking Skills) Based Learning for Students with Special Needs in Lampung Province

The research aims to identify the perspectives and challenges special education teachers face when learning HOTS (Higher-order thinking skills) for students with special needs at the elementary level in Lampung Province. This research uses a survey-type quantitative approach with Google Forms. Twenty-nine special school teachers were respondents by random sampling. The study's results found that all of the teachers knew the concept of HOTS-based learning. As many as 69% of teachers thought that HOTS-based learning could be applied to every type of ABK, and the rest answered no. However, 66% of teachers have implemented HOTS-based learning for students with special needs. This research explores the perceptions, experiences and obstacles of teachers who have implemented HOTS for children with special needs in Lampung. Based on research, Teachers admit they need training, good facilities and infrastructure, peer support, parental support, and reading resources. Recommendations for overcoming this challenge include increasing teacher training, allocating sufficient resources, and supporting and collaborating between the government, schools, and the community. Apart from that, HOTS is indeed a good concept, but this research also shows that HOTS is one of many things that teachers should implement. The implementation of HOTS must be appropriate to the needs and abilities of each child with different special needs.

Ecological Perspective, Perception, and Attitude of Local Communities Toward Managing and Utilizing the Mangrove Ecosystem in Lampung Province, Indonesia

Mangrove damage is caused by environmental changes in the surrounding area as well as direct and indirect pressures on the existence of mangroves. The preservation of mangrove forests is inseparable from the perceptions and behavior of the community in managing and utilizing mangrove forests. Community decisions to take action in the environment will be rooted in the reciprocal relationship created between humans and their environment. This research investigates the history of mangrove management and the ecological perspectives, attitudes, and perceptions of communities toward managing and utilizing mangroves and compares the management and ecology of two mangrove areas in Lampung Province, Indonesia. This study used structured questionnaires with 97 respondents in Margasari and 48 in Sidodadi who live around mangrove forests. The question related to utilizing mangrove ecology, community perceptions of mangrove forests, and participation in mangrove management. The results showed that the people of Margasari and Sidodadi had positive perceptions of mangrove forests. The number and frequency of people participating in mangrove management in Sidodadi were higher than those in Margasari, but in general, the participation in both villages was low. Neither village utilizes mangrove timber. The utilization of nontimber mangrove products in Margasari is more diverse than in Sidodadi; Margasari has ten types of utilization, while Sidodadi has only four types. The condition of mangrove vegetation cover during the last ten years has the same trend; mangrove cover area has decreased, although there was a slight increase in Sidodadi. Different factors influence the decrease; in Margasari, it is influenced by natural factors, while in Sidodadi, it is influenced by human factors.

Analisis Kualitas Beton Dengan Memperhatikan Pasir: Perbandingan Pasir Dicuci dan Pasir Tidak Dicuci Pada Kuat Tekan Beton

Concrete is a building material that is widely used in construction. Currently, various methods continue to be developed with the aim of increasing the strength of concrete. Concrete is obtained by mixing fine aggregate, coarse aggregate, directly adding cement paste and water. Sand is a fine aggregate material that is most widely used in the construction sector, from the bottom of the building to the top of the building, such as in making roads, embankments, buildings or as a mortar for concrete mixtures. Sand in concrete greatly influences one of the materials used, namely Mount Sugih sand which is located in Gunung Sugih sub-district, Central Lampung district, Lampung province, where sand from Mount Sugih is famous for its quality compared to sand in every area of Lampung. This research aims to determine the compressive strength using Mount Sugih sand to compare washed and unwashed sand. The test object used is a cylinder with a diameter of 15 mm and a height of 30 mm. The concrete tested was 3, 7 and 21 days old and converted 28 days from a total of 8 test objects. Examination of the mud content of unwashed sand was 7.93% and washed sand was 3.06%. From the results of the tests that have been carried out, the results from washed sand were 197,625 kg/cm2 for 3 days, 263,490 kg/cm2 for 7 days, 265,093 kg/cm2 for 7 days, 21 days 241,117 kg/cm2 for unwashed sand results for 3 days 194,947 kg/cm2, 7 days 210,809 kg/cm2, 7 days 187,140 kg/cm2, 21 days 190,240 kg/cm2 from the results obtained, the washed Sugih mountain sand experienced a very good increase and the unwashed Sugih mountain sand experienced a decrease.

Financial governance: Cases at Village-Owned Enterprises (BUMDEs) in Lampung Province

Purpose: This study examines the accountability and transparency of BUMDes financial governance implementation in Lampung Province within four stages of the financial governance process, which results in BUMDes inactivity. Research methodology: This study uses a qualitative approach to analyze financial governance in BUMDes. The analysis is viewed from the four stages of village finance governance and indicators of transparency and accountability. Data collection was carried out through interviews with BUMDes administrators and distributing questionnaires. The resource persons in this study were BUMDes managers in Lampung Province. Results: This study affirms that while the financial governance process in BUMDes incorporates elements of transparency and accountability, the level of implementation is inadequate, resulting in inactive BUMDes in Lampung Province. Finance governance is carried out based on BUMDes management's needs and understanding without appropriate governing documentation. Additionally, this research highlights the necessity for community participation to be appropriately implemented. Limitations: The focus on village-owned enterprises in Lampung Province limits the generalizability of the study findings to other village-owned enterprises in other provinces. Contribution: This research provides insight into BUMDes financial governance, specifically the implementation of finance governance in Lampung Province. It also examines which parts of the four stages of the financial governance process need improvement and optimization to increase transparency and accountability of BUMDes, as well as decrease the number of inactive BUMDes. This is a previously unexplored topic of research that is relevant to all stakeholders concerned with BUMDes financial governance.

THE VOICE OF ELT STUDENTS AT ISLAMIC COLLEGE ON ACADEMIC LIFE

Research shows that student voice might be an influencing factor in the future transformation and innovation of English language teaching (ELT). The voice has long been believed to be an instrument that could provide ELT practitioners and policymakers with meaningful feedback for the betterment of curricula, materials, and classroom practices. However, there are limited discussions exploring ELT student voice in such particular educational contexts as Islamic colleges. This article aims to contribute to our understanding of that rarely discussed voice with a particular focus on: (a) the students‟ best experience as English education students at an Islamic college; (b) the students‟ perceptions related to dress code and exams; and (3) the students‟ self- assessment of English language skills. This study presents a survey study on 278 students in the English language education department at an Islamic college in Lampung province, Indonesia. The data are drawn from a survey consisting of open-ended questions distributed to the respondents at the end of the semester. Data analysis was conducted qualitatively, ranging from preparing and organizing the data to interpreting the meaning of the data in line with the research questions and theoretical review. The findings reveal that among the students' best experiences were the Islamic atmosphere, affordable tuition fees, religious education, professional lecturers, and scholarship availability. The majority of students agreed with the dress code regulation and had problems with cheating on the final examinations. The findings also show that more than half of the respondents are not sure about their English competency. This study offers important implications for English teacher education in Islamic educational contexts.

EVALUATION OF HEALTH FACILITIES LOCATION TO SUPPORT ACCESSIBILITY TO ESSENTIAL HEALTH SERVICES IN BANDAR LAMPUNG CITY, LAMPUNG PROVINCE, INDONESIA

Health remains one of the most important aspects of every human life, with access to quality healthcare services being a pivotal component of human well-being. In Indonesia, health facility distribution has been characterized by disparities, primarily concentrated on the populous Java Island. This distribution inequity underscores a significant challenge in achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) under Goal 3, which aims to ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all. Bandar Lampung, the most densely populated city in Lampung Province and one of Sumatra's most populated cities, experiences an intensified demand for healthcare facilities due to its substantial population. However, the city grapples with numerous infrastructural challenges, including suboptimal road conditions that hinder accessibility to essential healthcare services. These challenges further underscore the urgency of assessing and addressing the healthcare infrastructure within Bandar Lampung. This research seeks to undertake a comprehensive evaluation of health facility availability in Bandar Lampung City, as well as an in-depth analysis of the accessibility of healthcare services in different areas of the city. To achieve this, the study employs the Network Analysis Tool, which leverages road network data to model travel distances and times. In addition to road network data, geospatial population data sourced is integrated into the analysis to gauge the demand for healthcare facilities within Bandar Lampung. This multifaceted approach is essential in comprehensively addressing the complex interplay between supply and demand in the healthcare sector. The combination of these datasets culminates in the creation of an accessibility model that unveils the disparities in healthcare access across Bandar Lampung. The model highlights areas where accessibility to healthcare facilities remains surprisingly low, despite the city's high population density. Conversely, it also identifies regions with high accessibility, potentially serving as templates for improving healthcare distribution in underserved areas. By revealing these disparities, this research contributes valuable insights to healthcare planning and policy formulation in Bandar Lampung and offers a template for addressing similar challenges in other regions with uneven healthcare distribution.

Legal Protection of Child Victims of Prostitution and its Contribution to the Development of Child Protection Law in Indonesia

This article analyzes the implementation of legal protection for child victims of prostitution in Lampung Province and its contribution to the development of child protection law in Indonesia. The research aims to evaluate the alignment between child protection practices and the provisions of Islamic law and positive law, and to identify regulatory needs that support comprehensive protection for child victims of sexual violence. The theory used is the theory of mashlahah mursalah, which emphasizes general welfare. This study employs field research with a qualitative approach and inductive reasoning. Data were collected through interviews and documentation from the Women and Children's Protection Agency of Lampung Province. The findings indicate that the implementation of legal protection for child victims of sexual violence falls short of the expectations set by the constitution and legislation. There is a need for more stringent policies to ensure that victims receive legal protection and free access to necessary facilities. The conclusion of this research is that efforts to protect child victims of sexual violence require regulatory improvements to align with the mandate of the 1945 Constitution. The contribution of this study lies in the development of policy recommendations that can enhance legal protection for children in Indonesia and provide insights into the importance of synergy between Islamic law and positive law in protecting children's rights.

Unveiling the Dynamics of Blended Learning: The Interplay Between Lecturer Competencies and Students' Digital Experience on Student Subjectivity

This research aims to empirically examine the influence of lecturer competencies, students' digital experience, and self-regulated learning moderated by digital learning facilities on students' subjective perceptions of blended learning. The study employs an explanatory quantitative method involving a population of 328 students, with 273 respondents participating in lectures using the blended learning model at universities in Lampung Province. An analysis is conducted using the Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) model, preceded by tests for normality and reliability. Simultaneous testing of students' subjective perceptions of blended learning indicates a significant value. Another finding in this research reveals that students' experiences, such as knowledge, usage, awareness, information-seeking skills, and information sharing, predominantly influence students' subjective views on blended learning, with a coefficient value approaching one, namely 0.975. Recommendations for future research could focus on evaluating the success of the blended learning model through a combination of face-to-face learning within the classroom and the utilization of Learning Management Systems (LMS), considering the social, cognitive, and affective environment that supports students.
