Abstract

This paper presents the conceptual design of hybrid energy system used in railway application. The hybrid system with batteries and energy storage double-layer capacitor is a new technology that is used under extreme climatic conditions, especially in daytime temperature up to 50°C, high relative humidity, dust and heavy rain. It is a combination of double-layer capacitors and traction batteries. It draws power both externally and from braking energy. In order to reduce CO2 emissions to the environment, energy-saving drives and energy storage are used. Also, in public transportation, Sitras Hybrid Energy System (HES), hybrid energy storage system for trams, has been developed which combines a double-layer capacitor with a nickel-metal hydride battery. The storage not only allows driving without overhead lines, it also enables braking energy to be recovered. A reliable cooling system is required to ensure that the performance of the battery and the capacitor storage is maintained for as long as possible. The results of finite element model showed the robustness for railway application. The computational model refers to proof of static and dynamic strength in accordance with EN12663. A cooling system for a tram using this innovative technology was designed and qualified for the "Qatar Education City People Mover System (PMS)" project.

Abstract

Nyeri pada tulang belakang menjadi salah satu penyakit yang biasa diderita orang dewasa pada punggung bagian bawah. Nyeri ini bisa menjalar ke bagian bawah paha, terutama pada sisi posterior-lateral hingga ke lutut dan dapat menyebabkan penurunan performa dalam beraktivitas. Penyakit ini biasa disebabkan oleh degenerasi intervertebralis (IVD), dimana gerakan segmen tulang belakang menjadi tidak normal. Salah satu penggunaan biomaterial pada dunia medis ialah pembuatan implan penggantian diskus total sebagai salah satu metode untuk mengatasi penyakit degenerasi diskus. Hal ini dapat mengembalikan gerakan tulang belakang, menyerap getaran antar tulang belakang, serta memulihkan ketinggian antar ruas tulang belakang yang menurun akibat penyakit degenerasi diskus. Berbagai biomaterial dikembangkan diantaranya stainless steel 316L, ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE), polyetheretherketone (PEEK), dan carbon fiber-reinforced-polyetheretherketone (CFRPEEK) sebagai implan pengganti diskus. Simulasi analisis elemen hingga dilakukan untuk mengetahui kemampuan diskus pada model lumbal 1 hingga lumbal 2 dengan pemberian beban 500 N – 2500 N menggunakan aplikasi Ansys. Hasil yang diperoleh menunjukkan peningkatan nilai von mises stress pada material stainless steel 316L, CFRPEEK, dan PEEK dengan inlay UHMWPE. Dimana nilai peningkatan memiliki presentase yang sama pada setiap pembebanannya. Desain PEEK sebagai superior/ inferior endplate dengan inlay UHMWPE menjadi material rekomendasi yang dapat digunakan sebagai implan pengganti diskus invertebralis ditinjau dari persentase peningkatan nilai von mises stress paling rendah dibandingkan material lain.

Abstract

Mechanical analysis is a critical aspect of engineering that aims to understand the root causes of component failures and develop strategies to prevent future occurrences. This thesis presents a comprehensive failure analysis of heavy-duty rollers used in industrial applications, focusing on identifying the mechanisms that lead to their premature failure. Heavy-duty rollers are subjected to extreme operational conditions, including high loads, varying speeds, and harsh environmental factors, making them prone to wear and failure. The study involved a detailed examination of failed roller samples using various analytical techniques, including visual inspection, metallurgical analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results revealed that the primary failure mechanisms were fatigue, abrasive wear, and improper lubrication. Fatigue failures were characterized by the presence of micro-cracks that propagated over time due to cyclic loading. Abrasive wear was identified through the examination of surface topography, indicating that particles entrapped between rolling surfaces led to significant material removal. Additionally, improper lubrication was found to exacerbate both fatigue and wear by increasing friction and thermal stresses. The analysis also highlighted several contributing factors to these failure mechanisms, such as material defects, manufacturing inconsistencies, and inadequate maintenance practices. Metallurgical analysis indicated the presence of non-metallic inclusions and improper heat treatment as significant factors compromising the material integrity. These include material selection enhancements, optimized heat treatment processes, improved lubrication strategies, and rigorous maintenance protocols. Implementing these recommendations is expected to significantly reduce the failure rate and extend the operational lifespan of heavy-duty rollers in industrial settings. This study underscores the importance of a systematic approach to failure analysis and provides a framework for addressing similar issues in other critical components. The insights gained from this research contribute to the broader field of reliability engineering and have practical implications for industries relying on heavy-duty roller systems.

Abstract

Tulang lumbar memegang peran penting dalam menunjang aktivitas manusia sehari-hari. Untuk mengkaji permasalahan yang ada pada tulang lumbar metode komputasi hingga (Finite Element Analisys) menjadi salah satu solusi yang optimal untuk mengetahui fenomena yang terjadi. Pada penelitian ini dilakukan studi pendahuluan mengenai rekonstruksi dan mesh dengan fokus pada lumbar satu sampai dua. Proses rekonstruksi dilakukan dengan memanfaatkan software Mimics, Solidwork, dan Ansys sedangkan untuk studi meshing sendiri dimulai dengan nilai ukuran mesh yang lebih besar ke kecil. Berdasarkan rekonstruksi yang dilakukan didapatkan model lumbar yang memiliki bagian berupa cortical bone, cancellous bone, annulus, dan ligamen. Sedangkan nilai mesh optimum yang didapatkan adalam 3 mm dengan nilai presentase perubahan kurang dari 2%.

Abstract

This research evaluates the effect of stress-relieving post-weld heat treatment (PWHT) on the mechanical properties and microstructure of friction-welded JIS S45C steel joints. The PWHT was conducted at 500 °C for 1 hour. Tensile and Vickers microhardness tests were performed on both as-welded and heat-treated specimens. The tensile tests showed that fracture consistently occurred in the base metal, confirming good weld quality. Stress-relieved specimens showed a 3% increase in elongation compared to the as-welded condition, indicating improved plasticity. The Vickers microhardness tests revealed around 10% decrease in hardness at the weld center zone (from 293 HV to 267 HV) and heat-affected zone (from 245 HV to 224 HV) after treatment. Metallographic observation indicated coarsening of the pearlite phase due to thermal exposure.
