This condition has implications for the tendency of increasing problems related to the carrying capacity of the environment and the suitability of land functions in the area. Therefore, it is necessary to harmonize the development of formal housing with the carrying capacity of the environment so that the negative impact of the phenomenon of formal housing development in this area can be avoided. The purpose of this study is to analyze the environmental carrying capacity of the development of formal housing for the prediction of the next 20 years. The analytical method used is a combined method of qualitative and quantitative analysis with a focus on the study of population projections, land availability and needs, and the carrying capacity of residential land. The results showed that the population in Moncongloe District in 2021 was 23,738 people, while the projected population in 2041 was 46,779 people, which means an increase of 97.06%. The results of the analysis of land availability show that 50% of the area of Moncongloe District is recommended for the development of residential land, including formal housing. The value of the carrying capacity of residential land (DDPm) in Moncongloe District in 2021 is 20.7 while in 2041 it is 20 so it can be concluded that the environmental carrying capacity in Moncongloe District can still accommodate the development of settlements for the next 20 years.

Previous earthquake damage surveys have shown that, in many cases, gabion structures did not collapse even though deformation was allowed, and have demonstrated that the wire mesh used in their construction has a high confinement effect on the stones filling the gabion. Despite this, gabions have not been actively utilized, nor have they been used to construct permanent structures in Japan because the design and construction of such structures are based on experience, and a standardized design method has not been developed. Hence, in order to facilitate development a design method for gabion-based structures, we must first go back to the basics and establish a detailed explanation of the wire mesh deformation mechanism of such structures. In this study, we performed tensile tests on wire meshes of different shapes in order to determine their strength and deformation characteristics and then conducted numerical analyses using the results obtained. The tensile tests revealed that deformation characteristics differed depending on the mesh shape and tensile direction. We also showed that the direction in which the tension acts and the mesh nodes are important, and that the test results could be reproduced via numerical analysis with the finite element method by using beam elements.","PeriodicalId":387754,"journal":{"name":"EPI International Journal of Engineering","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125506212","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}

Some areas in this regency are classified as landslide prone area based on its geological condition. This study is aimed to assess the landslide vulnerability level and produce a landslide vulnerability map by using mapping method as a basis to model the risk reduction assessment. The component of disaster risk assessment consists of threats, vulnerabilities, and capacities. These components are used to obtain the level of disaster risk in an area by calculating the potential for exposed lives, loss of property and environmental damage. The result shows that Soppeng Regency region has some areas that are prone to landslides with low-high levels. The Vulnerability Assessment is classified as medium level whereas the result of landslide disaster capacity assessment is also shown as medium level. Based on these analyses, it was concluded that Soppeng Regency had a high landslide threat index, with a medium exposed population index and a medium capacity index. The study of landslide disaster risk assessment in Soppeng Regency has shown that Soppeng Regency has been classified as landslide prone area with the medium risk level, especially in mountainous and river bank area. It is recommended that disaster risk assessment model should be used as one of the references for providing disaster risk mitigation plan in disaster risk reduction program.","PeriodicalId":387754,"journal":{"name":"EPI International Journal of Engineering","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128981948","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}

Another type of aluminum alloy that is widely used as a machining component is the Al 7075 T651 because it has the highest strength among other aluminum alloys. The mechanical properties of the Al 7075 T651 are directly proportional to the erosion resistance of the propeller which agrees with the pot tester porridge.

However, some deformation or declination were reported dpending on retaining wall types and ground conditions behind retaining walls. Therefore, in order to evaluate the earthquake resistance and residual deformations of retaining walls using gabions widely observed in Nepal, full-scale shake table tests and laboratory tests were conducted in previous studies. In this study, elemental simulations for determination of the analysis parameters based on the results of triaxial compression tests were carried out to check the validity of parameters. Then, a series of numerical analysis using proposed model was performed to reproduce the dynamic behaviors of full-scale shake table tests and evaluate the earthquake resistance of retaining wall using gabions. According to the results of these numerical analysis, it was confirmed that proposal model adequately could simulate the dynamic response of retaining walls in the full-scale shake table tests. and it was also cleared that the stepwise type retaining wall was superior to that of vertical type from the standpoint of earthquake stability against sliding and overturning.","PeriodicalId":387754,"journal":{"name":"EPI International Journal of Engineering","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126101239","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}
