Exploring Indonesia's Vernacular Architecture: Comparison of Environment and Culture Responsiveness

Culture, region, and climate are three fundamental aspects that influence vernacular architecture. As the largest archipelagic country in the world, Indonesia is rich in diversity of vernacular architecture, originating from different cultural backgrounds and natural characteristics. It is interesting to examine whether significant similarities or differences are reflected in two vernacular houses formed from other cultures, regions, and topographies, even though they have the same function: residence. In this research, architectural comparisons were made between Sundanese traditional houses with the natural character of the mountains in West Java and Banjar traditional houses in the coastal region of South Kalimantan. Data was obtained through the literature review and then analyzed using Bentley's theory of three aspects — functional-constructional, environmental, and socio-cultural; as well as seven criteria — permeability, variety, readability, robustness, visual suitability, richness, and personalization. The research results show that the differences between these two vernacular architectures are visible from the use of materials and the type of foundation used. Apart from that, an interesting fact was discovered that even though both of them have different cultures and regions, the shape of the roof, the position of openings such as windows and doors, and the location of the buildings in the same housing complex, these two vernacular architectures have similarities. It is analyzed that this is the response of both communities that is reflected in each of their vernacular architecture to the environment in the same climate, namely the tropical climate.

Development of Experimental Models on Floating Breakwaters

Indonesia is the largest archipelagic country in the world with a potential area consisting of 17,480 islands with a sea stretch of 5.8 million km2 and has the fourth longest coastline in the world at 95,181 km, has a very high level of risk of abrasion hazards, especially considering that more than 60% of Indonesians live in coastal areas. The main purpose of a floating breakwater is to protect an area against unwanted wave heights. One of the most important boundary requirements in port design is allowable downtime. This is a period of time when the port cannot fulfill its function so as to prevent the occurrence of unwanted things from the movement of ships. Downtime occurs when a certain wave height is exceeded, causing unwanted ship movements. This implies that the wave transmitted by the floating breakwater to the port determines the downtime. Of the 7 (seven) types that exist, the box type is taken for research because the box type is more effective and efficient in dampening waves. Then the type of box that is used as a test model is carried out with 2 (two) conditions. The test model to be studied is a floating pontoon with a mooring line and a floating pontoon tethered to a pile.

Analysis Computational Fluid Dynamics in a State of Ballast Loading on a Passenger Ship Prototype

Indonesia, as the largest archipelagic country in the world, has a very favourable geographical position because it is located between the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean. The background of this research stems from the critical importance of effectively managing ballast loading on passenger ships to ensure stability, safety, and operational efficiency during voyages. Traditionally, methods for assessing ballast loading have often relied on empirical formulas or simplified models, which may not fully capture the complex fluid dynamics and structural interactions inherent in modern ship designs. This gap highlights the need for advanced computational tools like computational fluid dynamics (CFD), which can provide a more detailed and accurate analysis of how ballast loading affects the ship’s behaviour. CFD simulations offer the capability to model and analyse complex flow patterns, pressure distributions, and structural responses under various ballasting scenarios. By leveraging CFD, this research aims to enhance understanding and optimize the management of ballast loading on passenger ships, thereby addressing the limitations of traditional methods and advancing the state-of-the-art in maritime engineering practices. The simulation was carried out at different speeds, namely 1 knot, 10 knots, and 20 knots. When moving at a speed of 1 knot, the obstacles encountered have a range of 30–40 cm/s and a maximum speed of 83.0971 cm/s. Likewise, when moving at a speed of 10 knots, the obstacle has a range of 200–400 cm/s and a maximum speed of 766.921 cm/s. Finally, at a speed of 20 knots, facing obstacles with speeds ranging from 400 to 800 cm/s and a maximum speed of 1504.56 cm/s, the ship’s hull remained unaffected in terms of damage. However, the fluid speed magnifies the occurrence of friction.

Thus, this application will provide convenience, comfort and security for prospective passengers in purchasing airline tickets of their choice.

Historical Cultural Maritime Notes and the Integration of Its Values in Shaping the Self-Reliance of Coastal Ecotourism

Until now, studies of Indonesian history have primarily concentrated on events that transpired on land, even though more than half of the territory of the Republic of Indonesia is composed of the sea. Such a dependency on the sea among many Indonesians indicates that a substantial portion of the past experiences and activities of the Archipelago's inhabitants has eluded the observation and research efforts of our nation's historians. This trend presents significant opportunities for the growth and development of Indonesian tourism. Indonesia, as the largest archipelagic country in the world, boasts rich biodiversity, a vast coastline of more than 81,000 km, and a total of 17,504 islands, among which 10,000 are classified as small islands, some of which remain unnamed and uninhabited. Mandar is one of the tribes in the archipelago that inhabits the coastal area of Kotabaru, South Kalimantan province, where the sea heavily influences its culture. The results of this study describe the potential for coastal tourism developed by the Mandar Community, which includes Pencak Silat, sea pandan handicrafts, and traditional sea alms ceremonies. The potential for tourism development is expected to transform these attractions into an economic catalyst for the local community in the area.
