Abstract

Natural fibre waste is a material with high material resistance, including fibres derived from coconut fruit. Coconut fruit waste is frequently underutilised and can contribute to environmental pollution if not handled correctly. This study's objective is to convert waste from coconuts into fibres, incorporate them into composite mixtures, and produce robust materials. Using coconut fibre presents a significant advantage in that it is easily biodegradable, reducing environmental pollution. The aim of this research is to produce a composite board material using HDPE plastic and coconut fibre, which is resistant to corrosion, through the hot felting method. This method of producing composite materials results in minimal voids and high material density, effectively reducing the chances of material failure. The composite specimens were subjected to testing following the ASTM D 638-01 standard. Technical abbreviations used throughout the text will be explained upon first use. The study achieved an excellent average tensile strength, strain, and elastic modulus of 22.45 MPa, 7.15%, and 5.13 MPa, respectively. The manufacture of composite materials using coconut coir fibre combined with HDPE plastic through the hot felting method resulted in high material strength, corrosion resistance, and reprocessability.

Abstract

In this paper, the spacecraft that evaluated has two motion mode, rigid body mode and flexible mode and it isoperated in low earth orbit. The rigid body mode is related to the attitude of spacecraft and flexible mode is relatedto vibration that occurs on the spacecraft structure. The vibration that occurs on the spacecraft structure may causeperformance degradation during operation. Hence, the active control vibration is applied to overcome the problemdue to the vibration phenomenon on spacecraft. The active control system was designed by using two methods,Pole-Placement Method and Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) Method, and those two methods are solved byusing numerical method. The result of Pole-Placement Method shows the vibration is reduce in less than 0.5 unitof time. Whereas, the most suitable control parameter input based on the LQR Method could reduce vibration inless than 8 unit of time. The LQR method provides more parameter variation; thus, the system could be controlledand adjusted due to its design requirement. Based on the LQR Method when the attenuation time is 8 unit of time,the energy required by the actuator is 84% less than that of the Pole-Placement Method.
