Abstract

The influence of guide vane length and Reynolds number was investigated using computational fluid dynamics methods. By using a structured mesh, it is known that the three mesh variations used have been verified using the Richardson Extrapolation method. The validation process also showed quite good results. From this research, it can be seen from the velocity profile trend, which is close to the experimental results from previous studies. Changing the Reynolds number does not significantly change the velocity profile at the outlet bend. However, it can be seen that changes in the Reynolds number impact the fluid flow pattern produced around the pipe bend. It can be seen clearly, especially when the velocity is negative. Changing the length of the guide vane changes the flow pattern quite significantly. It is known that the shorter the guide vane used, the velocity profile will tend towards the outer core. Furthermore, using a guide vane increases the velocity profile at the position -0.3≤r/R≤ -0.06. Using a guide vane has proven to eliminate negative velocity areas on the inner core side of each variation.

Abstract

Gas-liquid two-phase is a situation where the gas phase of a liquid coexists together. The presence of gas that forms a region in the liquid environment causes the formation of bubble flow. The parameters of the bubble flow carry important information about the behavior and characteristics of the bubble. This research was carried out by detecting the size and area of the bubble using YOLOv8-based image processing by comparing the model's performance to produce improvements in inference time, increase accuracy, and reduce computational load. Bubble images were collected by adding 0.4 mm copper wire as a comparison to convert mm to pixels; then, the images were labeled and trained with various YOLOv8 models. Confusion matrix, precision and recall are used as comparative evaluation materials for the YOLOv8 model to obtain good model performance. In this study, the AUC of the Precision and Recall curve closest to the value 1 is the YOLOv8m model of 0.990. The comparison results of the matrix evaluation with the best model are the YOLOv8m model with mAP of 99.00% and F1-score of 96.86%. Microbubble measurements are calculated from the output of the YOLOv8 model by converting pixel units to mm. The model used in bubble measurements is the model with the best evaluation results and the model that gets the smallest radius value by considering measurement uncertainty, namely YOLOv8m with a minimum radius of 0.66 ± 0.04 mm..

Abstract

Excavators are essential machinery widely utilized in mining, construction, plantation, and other industries. The Komatsu PC210-10M0, a small-sized excavator model, performs critical operations such as material digging and transportation. However, during component overhauls, particularly for the boom cylinder, bucket, and arm, significant challenges arise due to the absence of suitable tools for efficiently removing and installing hydraulic cylinder pistons. The current reliance on generic tools such as screw wrench sets (L-keys) is suboptimal, leading to inefficiencies, increased risks of workplace accidents due to tool slippage, and longer processing times. This study addresses these limitations by employing the Seven Up++ method to develop a specialized service tool specifically designed for hydraulic cylinder piston maintenance. The methodology encompasses three critical phases: Analysis, Solution, and Results, ensuring a systematic and innovation-focused approach. The developed tool securely positions itself on the piston cylinder, utilizing two pins inserted into pre-existing holes on the piston surface. The results demonstrate significant improvements: maintenance processing time is reduced by up to 70%, operational safety is enhanced due to the tool's secure attachment, and labor requirements are halved, with manpower reduced from two operators to one. These findings highlight the tool's potential to optimize maintenance operations and improve overall efficiency in the use of Komatsu PC210-10M0 excavators.

Abstract

In the implementation of a project, three main aspects are indicators of the success of the project: cost, schedule, and quality. If the cost and time of project implementation are in accordance with the planning and quality requirements, then the project can be said to be successful. Time plays a significant role in construction management projects, where time is also a management function. With good and proper time control, obstacles to delays in project implementation can be avoided as much as possible. The purpose of this study was to determine the cause of the achievement or deviation of work between the realization in the field and the planned time schedule for the procurement of a pedestal crane unit for a new platform in the operational area of ​​ block-B-Natuna.

Abstract

The incorporation of wood dust and crumb rubber waste as filler in polymer matrix composite still requires in-depth evaluation of mechanical properties because they have different characteristics. This study evaluates the tensile, flexural, and hardness properties of epoxy composites reinforced with various fractions of wood dust and crumb rubber (5, 10, and 15%). The results showed that the composite with 5% crumb rubber produced the highest tensile strength of 15.52 MPa (CR5), while the highest flexural strength was 30.46 MPa (CR10), and the highest hardness was 75.9 HRC (CR15), indicating superior performance for CR fillers. The observations of the fracture surface showed that increasing the fraction of wood dust contributed to lowering the mechanical performance due to the relatively large distribution of voids and agglomeration. This finding confirms the importance of filler type and fraction selection on composite performance. Future research is recommended to explore filler surface modification and hybrid combinations to improve dispersion and bonding between phases in composites.
