Abstract

GFRP composite is one of the alternative materials that the most common as a replacement for metal. This material has a light weight, easy to shape, good strength, and the production cost is relatively cheaper. This study aims to investigate the effects of fiber diameter variation of mechanical behavior, particularly on the load of high strain rate impact. The application of impulse momentum theory in the elastic region is the basic science for this case. The AGC apparatus is equipment that used for this test because it could generate the high strain wave rate in the single direction loading. Specimen is placed in the position of tight end against the end of the input bar. The results showed that the increase in fiber diameter variations affect the value of E that is produced. Thus, it is become a recommendation for the use of this material in certain circumstances.

Abstract

Polymeric composite foam with EFB fiber reinforced is new material that can be utilized as an alternative engineering material. EFB fiber utilization becomes the center of subject in this research. Moreover, these composites are unique with the presence of cavities (foam) in the matrix of unsaturated polyester resin. It results a decrease in density of the material that formed, and obtain a thermoset polymer composite material lighter than any else similar type. The objective of this study is to obtain the best manufacturing techniques of composite material, the mechanical behavior of these materials due to tensile static loading and high strain rate impact, and the distribution of foam that occur in the material that formed as a result of blowing agent (BA) from the type of polyurethane (PU). In this research, the sample formed into standard specimen of testing, such as ASTM D638 for static tensile test, and impact test specimen. Mechanical’s behaviors that are obtained in this research are density, tensile strength, modulus of elasticity (E), the incident stress, and dynamic modulus of elasticity of the material. For static testing was performed according to standard ASTM D638 tensile and impact test using the Kolsky’s method. To know the distribution of foam that occur in the material, were observed using Scanning Electron Microscope instrument (SEM). To determine the stress distribution in this material, then conducted a computer simulation using Ansys. The best result obtained by the composition of this material based on material composition, which resin consumption can be reduced by the presence of BA as well as mechanical strength, good enough for molding. The best composition in this study will be used in subsequent studies, namely the design and manufacture of traffic cones from this material.

Abstract

A skateboard is a small piece of wood shaped like a surfboard with four wheels attached to it that is used to glide on a certain track. In general, this tool is made using wood material taken from nature and vulnerable to environmental damage issues. In this research, the waste of banana stems will be processed into the main raw material for skateboarding. The type of material chosen is the type of composite material with banana stem waste selected as reinforcement and polyester resin as the matrix material. The purpose of this research is to design and manufacture a skateboard made of composite fiber reinforced banana stem fibers and to test its flexural strength to obtain the characteristics of the material formed. The design was carried out with the help of the 2007 version of Autocad software by following commercial skateboard standards.  Flexural testing was carried out at the Impact and Fracture Research Center laboratory, Faculty of Engineering, University of North Sumatra. Static static testing of polymer composite board specimens from banana stems obtained the average value data for the composition of 5% banana stems is 9.81 MPa, for the composition of 10% banana stems an average of 13.60 MPa, and composition of 15% banana stems the average is 27.20 MPa. 2. The analysis shows that the best composition is 15% of banana stems, with an average flexural strength value of 27.20 MPa. Therefore, the composition used in this study is the composition of 15% reinforcement of banana stems.

Abstract

In general, skateboard wheels are made from a mixture of polyurethane (PU) so that they are elastic, lightweight, and strong. However, this material is classified as a toxic material, difficult to obtain, and the price is relatively expensive. Therefore, alternative raw materials that are more environmentally friendly, non-toxic, easy to find, and have sufficient availability are needed. Banana trees are the most abundant and easily found plants in Indonesia, especially Medan. This tree has a soft structure and absorbs vibrations. Thus, the research was conducted to obtain the characteristics of skateboard wheel products from banana stem powder (SBP) composite material as an alternative raw material. The purpose of this study was to analyze the speed of skateboards made of PU (commercial) and SBP in order to obtain the optimum composition of SBP for the manufacture of skateboard wheels. The test uses a sliding platform with a slope of 30o against a flat plane. The number of variations consists of the composition of SBP 5%, 10%, and 15%. As a control, commercial PU wheels were also tested. Analysis of data using the analysis method of mean variation (ANOVA) with the condition of acceptance of the hypothesis H0 at a 0.05. The results obtained are that there is an increase in the speed of skateboards made of SBP composite up to 6, 85% compared to commercial wheels. Based on the Anova test results, it was found that the application of SBP composite materials as raw material for skateboard wheels was proven to significantly increase the speed performance of these wheels.
