The proliferation of fake news across digital platforms has raised critical concerns about information reliability. A notable example is the viral rumour falsely claiming that the Nigerian Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, had collapsed at an event and was rushed to an undisclosed hospital an entirely fabricated claim that caused public confusion. While both traditional machine learning and deep learning approaches have been explored for automated fake news detection, many existing models have been limited to topic-specific datasets and often suffer from overfitting, especially on smaller datasets like ISOT. This study addresses these challenges by proposing a standalone Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (BiLSTM) model for fake news classification using the ISOT dataset. Unlike multi-modal frameworks such as the MM-FND model by state-of-the-art model, which achieved 96.3% accuracy, the proposed BiLSTM model achieved superior results with 98.98% accuracy, 98.22% precision, 99.65% recall, and a 98.93% F1-score. The model demonstrated balanced classification across both fake and real news and exhibited strong generalization capabilities. However, training and validation performance plots revealed signs of overfitting after epoch 2, suggesting the need for regularization in future work. This study contributes to the growing body of research on fake news detection by showcasing the efficacy of a focused, sequential deep learning model over more complex architectures, offering a practical, scalable, and robust solution to misinformation detection

This study presents a modal analysis of Pertamina EP Cepu’s closed drain pump 510-P9002, which operates in the condensate–water treatment unit of the Jambaran Tiung Biru field. Field vibration measurements conducted in August 2024 indicated a fundamental frequency of 25 Hz, corresponding to 1×RPM of the driving motor, with maximum amplitudes reaching 13.46 mm/s. Such excessive vibration poses risks of mechanical damage, reduced equipment service life, and potential operational failure. To address this issue, finite element analysis (FEA) was employed to examine the dynamic response of the pump, determine its natural frequencies, and identify possible resonance conditions. A CAD model of the pump–vessel assembly was developed, meshed, and analyzed under actual boundary conditions. The results showed several natural frequencies ranging between 23.16 and 26.65 Hz, which are close to the excitation frequency, suggesting a very high likelihood of resonance. Various structural modifications were then evaluated, including a half casing and two types of full casings. Among these, the full casing B design provided additional stiffness in the motor support area; however, none of the modifications effectively reduced vibration within the internal components. Based on these findings, the study recommends the implementation of a dynamic vibration absorber (DVA) tuned to the excitation frequency, along with the redesign of structural components to shift natural frequencies away from operating excitation. These solutions are expected to improve operational stability, extend equipment lifespan, and enhance overall system reliability. The outcomes of this research provide important insights for managing vibration issues in pump systems operating under similar conditions, particularly in the oil and gas industry where continuous, stable operation is critical.

In manufacturing industries, machining processes play a critical role in ensuring product quality, precision, and production efficiency. However, in the production of swing arm parts, the machining process has been identified as a bottleneck due to its non-optimal cycle time. One of the main issues contributing to this inefficiency is the disorganized handling of circlip inner parts. These components are often scattered without a designated placement system, which creates significant difficulties for operators when retrieving and installing circlips onto the swing arm. Such abnormalities disrupt workflow continuity, extend production time, and reduce overall productivity. To address this challenge, a circlip feeder machine was designed as a supporting device to assist operators and streamline the machining process. The design emphasizes efficiency, integration, and systematic operation by utilizing readily available workshop materials. The developed feeder machine is equipped with a robust frame construction and has a storage dimension capable of accommodating up to 200 circlips. In addition, mechanical analysis demonstrates that the feeder structure can withstand a maximum applied force of 31,475 N, ensuring durability and reliability during operation. The introduction of this circlip feeder machine directly impacts the production process by reducing operator workload, minimizing delays caused by disorganized parts, and ensuring faster and more accurate installation of circlips. Consequently, the overall machining cycle time is shortened, thereby improving production flow and enhancing the efficiency of swing arm part manufacturing. Beyond immediate time savings, the use of the feeder machine contributes to better resource utilization, reduced ergonomic strain on operators, and improved consistency in product quality. This study highlights the significance of simple yet effective mechanical innovations in overcoming production bottlenecks and optimizing manufacturing processes in automotive component industries.
