Handcycle is a transportation tool for individuals with lower limb disabilities. This study designed a handcycle as a mode of transportation to facilitate the accessibility of persons with disabilities. The design of the handcycle was designed on a prototype scale. It referred to recumbent and synchronous frame geometry types for arm crank set up to do finite element analysis studies using Autodesk Fusion 360 software to find the value of the strength of the handcycle frame design. A decent frame at 160 kg loading with a critical value of 330 MPa was designed and became a reference for the handcycle production process.
The tourism village of Kalakijo, Yogyakarta, promotes batik and traditional culinary ‘ingkung’ as its main branding strategy. To date, the marketing and promotion of Kalakijo are performed based on conventional strategies. The emergence of the pandemic in recent years further complicates the problems faced by micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSME) owners in Kalakijo. This program aimed to assist the development and application of digital marketing strategies to increase the reach of promotions and attract the interest of younger generations in batik and ingkung. Prior to program implementation, surveys and discussions with Kalakijo villagers and business owners were carried out. The programs were implemented in several steps, including strengthening brand identity, building websites, making product catalogs, and setting up e-commerce platforms. Evaluation and monitoring were also carried out regularly during the program implementation. Through this program, MSMEs in Kalakijo are able to become entity that are independent, adaptive, and competitive in the digital era.
POTENTIAL EXPANSION OF JOGLO AND GAMELAN AS CULTURAL TOURISM DESTINATIONS. Joglo is one of the heritage forms of traditional Javanese houses in Yogyakarta, as well as traditional Gamelan musical instruments. The former Head of the Gilangharjo Village Jetis, Gilangharjo, Pandak, Bantul opened a Joglo with a set of Gamelan music equipment. Joglo has been approved as a cultural heritage building by the DIY Provincial Government. Even though Joglo has become a cultural heritage building, the potency for cultural heritage houses and Gamelan musical instruments are underutilized by residents. The development of Joglo cultural tourism and Gamelan will run well by involving the village community. This service aims to empower the community to increase the potency of Joglo and Gamelan to become cultural tourism destination and become community-based tourism. The purpose of this service are to participate by involving the village community involved in tourism development and starting to become known as the Joglo location and Gamelan arts in Jetis Village. The results of this service consist of profiles of Joglo websites and videos. Utilizing the advances in information technology and social media, the more popular Joglo in Jetis RT 03.
CFRP structures are often exposed to humid environment resulting in water absorption and causing property degradation. Water swelling and its effect on tensile, compressive, and flexural properties were investigated according to ASTM standards. Fracture modes were evaluated by analyzing micrographs of fracture areas. The specimens were cut from twill wave CFRP composite plates fabricated using a vacuum infusion technique. Some of them were immersed in water prior to being mechanically tested. It was found that tensile strength, as well as compressive, and flexural strength and moduli decreased due to water swelling, but fracture strain was found to increase due to water swelling. The most severely affected by water swelling is flexural strength (decreased by 25.72%), and the least is compressive modulus (decreased by 1.89%). Tensile specimens underwent fibre breakage followed by matrix cracking, compressive and flexural specimens showed fibre buckling followed by kinking and crushing where flexural specimens failed in their compressive side. In conclusion, water absorption has a bad impact on the composite strength.
Pondok Pesantren Asy-Syifa' Muhammadiyah (PPAM) in Yogyakarta established several Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) including production units of tempeh, mineral water, coffee, and donut. The main obstacle experienced by the MSMEs is the traditional marketing system which limits the sales of products. The current program aimed to assist the adoption of information technology, especially in marketing techniques using social media and e-commerce. The activities included discussions with MSMEs owners, socialization of marketing techniques, creating social media accounts, making of product catalogs, and evaluation. In general, all the activities could be carried out as targeted. After participating in this program, the MSME owners at PPAM are able to use social media and e-commerce to increase product marketing and sales.
