Abstract

Oil palm empty fruit bunches (OPEFB) is one of the palm oil industry solid wastes that can be used as an alternative material to product composites. This research was conducted to determine the effect of the addition of Zinc Oxide (ZnO) as a filler material hybridized with OPEFB fiber to the flexural strength of polymeric foam composites. The aim of this research is to obtain the strength of the flexural test value of the composite material polymeric foam reinforced OPEFB fiber and Zinc Oxide (ZnO) with reference to the ASTM D790-92 standard. The composition of the specimens are 70% Resin, 15% OPEFB Fiber, 15% Polyurethane with different fiber sizes namely mesh (40, 60, 80, 100) and the addition of Zinc Oxide (ZnO) of (0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%). The test specimen used for each composition is 5 samples, so that the entire test sample is 100 samples. From the test data it can be concluded the value of flexural strength in the 100 mesh OPEFB specimens and the addition of Zinc Oxide (ZnO) 10% is the best composition compared to 40, 60 and 80 mesh OPEFB with the addition of Zinc Oxide (ZnO) 5%, 15%, and 20%, where the voltage value is 10,01141 MPa and the strain value is 0,898456 mm / mm. From the research data it can also be concluded that the smaller the OPEFB fiber size with the addition of zinc oxidation (ZnO) 10%, the flexural strength of the polymeric foam composite material will be better.

Abstract

To maintain factory reliability, one of the essential factors is the availability of spare parts. Therefore, the spare parts procurement process implemented by the company must be effective and efficient. The complexity of supply chain activities in the spare parts procurement process involving multiple parties and uncertainties that occur in rapid dynamic changes may lead to the emergence of risk events with negative impacts in both short and long terms. The focus of this research is to identify operational risks in the procurement of MRO spare parts and identify alternative efforts to handle the risk of spare parts unavailability. The method used in this research is House of Risk (HOR) to identify risk events, risk agents, and design mitigation action formulations for priority risk agents based on the Aggregate Risk Potential (ARP) value that can suppress the emergence of risk agents. The research results obtained 26 risk events and 25 risk agents. Priority risk agents were obtained based on the highest ARP value, using Pareto analysis approach resulted in 14 risk agents that contributed to 81.32% of the emergence of risk events. There are 9 mitigation actions that can minimize the emergence of risk agents in the supply chain process of MRO spare parts procurement.

Abstract

The strength of fiber-reinforced composites is greatly influenced by the bonding at the fiber-matrix interface. Experimental methods to study this interface are often challenging, making numerical approaches essential for evaluating the interfacial behavior in fiber-reinforced composites. This study investigates the stress and strain distribution in the fiber, matrix, and fibermatrix interface regions of natural fiber-reinforced single-fiber composites under tensile loading using the finite element method. Interface conditions were modeled using cohesive elements, with the composites represented in two dimensions through ABAQUS 6.14 software. The tie constrains contact model was employed to define binding interactions between the cohesive element, the fiber, and the matrix. The maximum stress value resulting from the simulation process is 202 MPa and a strain of 0.0449 mm. The stress is effectively distributed to the fiber, demonstrating that the cohesive element used in composite analysis under tensile loading serves as a reliable link between the fiber and the matrix. The simulation results revealed a maximum stress value of 202 MPa and a corresponding strain of 0.0449 mm. The stress distribution effectively transferred to the fiber, demonstrating the capability of cohesive elements to represent the interfacial bond in composites under tensile loading. These findings confirm that cohesive element modeling is reliable method for analyzing fibermatrix interactions in natural fiber reinforced composites, providing insights for optimizing composite performance.
