The Maluku Islands, especially Dobo port, is one of the regions in Indonesia that is rich in fish production and is also traversed by the Sea Toll program. Researchers want to see whether the Sea Toll program can support and synergize with the SLIN (National Fish Logistics System) program by measuring the fish logistics performance index (IKLI) at Dobo Port. The data collection technique was carried out using a purposive sampling technique with a questionnaire method. A total of 13 respondents were interviewed and the results of the fish logistics performance index at Dobo Port were 56.1%. Based on the ordinal scale, the IKLI value in Pel Dobo is sufficient but not optimal. There are three lowest dimensions that need to be improved so that the marine highway program in Pel Dobo can improve, namely the management dimension of fish procurement, the benefits dimension and the governance dimension.","PeriodicalId":11630,"journal":{"name":"Engineering and Technology Journal","volume":"6 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141662580","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The samples produced were machined into hardness, impact and tensile tests specimens. Then the specimens were subjected to laboratory based accelerated solution heat treatment, quenching and artificial ageing. Array of comprehensive mechanical properties examination and characterization in line with the appropriate specifications of the American Society for Testing and Materials Standard manuals were conducted to determine the influence of ageing on the material’s strength, hardness, impact toughness and stress-strain characteristics. The study revealed significant enhancement in the mechanical properties of the material and the findings would provide valuable insight into the ageing behaviour of Aluminium-Silicon, thus, enabling the optimization of the material’s performance for use in diverse engineering applications.","PeriodicalId":11630,"journal":{"name":"Engineering and Technology Journal","volume":"114 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141681709","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study presents the determination of geoid heights (Ns) of Awka and Environ utilizing the Broadview RADAR Altimeter Toolbox (BRAT) in conjunction with data from the Sentinel-3 missions. The geoid, a surface of constant gravitational potential representing mean sea level, is a fundamental reference surface for geodetic measurements and understanding Earth's gravity field. The methodology involves processing raw altimetry data acquired by the Sentinel-3 missions using BRAT, followed by precise corrections for various factors affecting the altimeter measurements, such as atmospheric delays, sea state bias, and orbit errors. Subsequently, the derived SSH data are combined with precise geoid models to compute the geoid heights at different spatial resolutions. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach in determining geoid height (N) with high precision and spatial resolution, offering valuable contributions to geodetic research and applications. The utilization of Sentinel-3 data combined with BRAT facilitates robust and accurate geoid determination, which is essential for a wide range of geospatial applications, including oceanography, geophysics, and climate studies. The integration of BRAT and Sentinel-3 missions offers a powerful tool for geodetic research and applications, contributing to our understanding of Earth's dynamic processes and improving the accuracy of geospatial measurements.","PeriodicalId":11630,"journal":{"name":"Engineering and Technology Journal","volume":" 680","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141364257","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Voice is becoming the primary interface for AI voice assistants like Amazon Alexa, as well as in autos and smart home devices. Homes and so on. As human-machine communication becomes more common, researchers are exploring technology that mimics genuine speech. Speech cloning is the practice of copying or mimicking another person's speech, usually utilizing modern technology and artificial intelligence (AI). This entails producing a synthetic or cloned version of someone's voice that sounds very similar to the actual speaker. The objective is to produce speech that is indistinguishable from the genuine person, both in tone and intonation. Instant Voice Cloning (IVC) in text-to-speech (TTS) synthesis refers to the TTS model's capacity to copy the voice of any reference speaker based on a short audio sample, without requiring extra speaker-specific training. This method is usually referred to as zero-shot TTS. IVC provides users with the flexibility to tailor the generated voice, offering significant value across diverse real-world applications.
