62th Doctoral Promotion


The Study Program of Doctoral Engineering Science (PSDIT) held its 62nd doctoral promotion on Tuesday, January 2, 2024, at the Faculty of Engineering, Udayana University, on Jl. P.B. Sudirman Denpasar. Promovendus Ir. Iman Handiman, MT with the dissertation titled Coefficient Approach for Horizontal Pressure on Soil Due To Moving Load received a very satisfactory predicate.
Dr. Ir. Iman Handiman, MT, explained that the additional horizontal or lateral pressure caused by the dynamic loads of traffic must be determined. To obtain the correct structure according to the design, it is necessary to accurately calculate the lateral pressure of the soil. The electronic device is designed as a sensory instrument to acquire data during lateral pressure testing. This study found that the shape or pattern of the ground lateral pressure distribution curve when the vehicle passes over the ground is usually a shape with two peaks that are not of the same size.  The first peak is relatively smaller than the second peak, which is relatively consistent with Boussinesq's approach.
As chairman of the session is the Coordinator of PSDIT, Prof. Dewa Made Priyantha Wedagama, ST., MT., MSc., Ph.D. The promoter, the co-promoters I and II are Prof. Ir. I Wayan Redana, M.A.Sc., Ph.D., IPU., ASEAN.Eng., Dr. Ir. Anissa Maria Hidayati, M.T., and Prof. Ir. I Ketut Sudarsana, S.T., Ph.D respectively. Acting as examiners are Prof. Ir. I Nyoman Arya Thanaya, ME., Ph.D., Prof. Dr. Ir. Nyoman Budiartha RM., M.Sc., Prof. Ir. Rukmi Sari Hartati, M.T., Ph.D., Dr. Ir. I Made Agus Ariawan, S.T., M.T, and Dr. Ir. I Nyoman Aribudiman, S.T., M.T., IPM., ASEAN.Eng. Academic invitees are Prof. I Nyoman Suprapta Winaya, S.T., M.A.Sc., Ph.D., Prof. Dr. Ir. I Dewa Ketut Sudarsana, M.T, and Dr. Ir. Ida Bagus Alit Swamardika, M.Erg., IPM., ASEAN.Eng.
