Abstract

Santa Ana winds, which are characterized by their scorching, arid, and forceful surges, significantly exacerbate wildfire hazards in Southern California, extending to 23,000 ha, particularly in the Los Angeles region. The purpose of this study is to examine the correlation between anthropogenic influences and natural climatic phenomena, with a specific focus on the influence of regional energy policies on the frequency and intensity of wildfires. The interaction between the Santa Ana winds and landscapes that are becoming more flammable has become more intensive in recent decades, although they are a natural phenomenon. Inadequately regulated urban expansion, prolonged droughts, and elevated temperatures are the causes of this intensification. Utility companies explicitly link wildfire ignitions during wind events to their energy infrastructure, particularly above-ground power lines. Moreover, the crisis has been further exacerbated by inadequate utility modernization, delayed policy reforms, and limited investment in fire-resilient infrastructure. This study assesses the degree to which regulatory inertia and climate change interact to elevate the likelihood of wildfires by analyzing historical wildfire data, meteorological patterns, and the evolution of California's energy policies. In the face of escalating climatic extremes, the results underscore the urgent need for energy strategies that are forward-thinking and integrated and that prioritize environmental sustainability, conflagration prevention, and resilience.

Abstract

Fire is a disaster that no one wants. Fires can occur anytime and anywhere, one of which is offices, buildings, warehouses, and even forests. Fires in buildings can cause losses in both material and non-material properties. To extinguish the fire, you need supporting equipment, for example a Fire Extinguisher Kit (FEK), which is a fire hose reel. To produce this tool, a production aid is needed in terms of gripping the workpiece that will be used as a fire fighting kit product. Fire Hose Reel production aids are production workpiece holder tools that are used in order to make accurate doubling of components to get good work results in production, of course there should be compatibility in terms of the position of the workpiece with the machine used. The fixing device is used which is designed to position, hold, and support each part so every welding performed is within the specified limits. In the process of designing and manufacturing, this Welding Tool for Production of FEK uses software to calculate the load that these production aids can withstand and for the manufacturing process tools such as cutting grinders, drilling machines and other bench work tools are used. This tool can withstand the weight of objects up to 50 kg. with a deflection of 0.055 mm.

Abstract

A hybrid photovoltaic system with a total installed capacity of 1.6 kWp, composed of monocrystalline and polycrystalline modules, was experimentally evaluated under tropical conditions. The energy storage system employs a 72V bank comprising lithium-ion and lead-acid batteries. Hourly experimental measurements were conducted, and exergy analysis based on the Second Law of Thermodynamics was applied to quantify irreversible losses. It is revealed that the system’s energy efficiency ranges from 3.33% to 8.67%. The peak efficiency occurred in the afternoon, coinciding with lower panel temperatures and greater direct power delivery. Quantitative exergy analysis further identified a maximum exergy destruction of 8486.88 W at the irradiance peak, with the lowest exergetic efficiency dropping to 3.61% due to thermal irreversibilities. Additionally, operational monitoring revealed a critical synchronization failure between the lithium Battery Management System (BMS) and the Solar Charge Controller (SCC) during low-voltage states, necessitating manual intervention for recovery. These findings highlight that thermal management and component synchronization are the primary bottlenecks for system reliability in tropical environments.

Abstract

Welding machine is a machine that facilitates human work in joining metals. There are two types that are usually used by humans, namely carbide welding machines and electric welding machines. Which both have their respective advantages as a metal connector. This article is lifted from the problem that occurs in the frame or frame on the welding table which experiences severe enough bending of the top frame (head support) which can damage the table frame and the unknown load (force) received by the welding table frame so that the frame is experiencing a bend. Then a design is carried out in the form of a design drawing that can be analyzed for the strength and stress that occurs in the frame which allows researchers to know the load value that is safe to use for the frame. This article aims to reveal the value of the stress that occurs in the frame and the safety value obtained from the design results of the weld table frame structure in the form of technical drawings and structural strength analysis. This article is limited to a loading of 400 newtons. This article examines the design, simulation and stress analysis of the weld table frame structure with a capacity of 400 newtons using the finite element method or also known as Finite Element Analysis (FEA). The material used is st37 iron. Finite element analysis was carried out using a numerical system using the Autodesk Inventor Professional 2020 software. The results of the simulations and also the analysis that has been carried out show that the welding table frame structure has a stress, deformation, mass, and safety factor of 20.0755 MPa, 0.0582948 mm, 40 kg
