Abstract

This study examines the mechanical and microstructural behavior of API 5L X65QS/QO PSL2 seamless carbon steel pipes subjected to a hot induction bending process followed by quenching and tempering. The research aimed to evaluate the combined effect of mechanical deformation and heat treatment on the material’s strength, hardness, and toughness. Experimental procedures were performed on a 12-inch seamless pipe bent at 900 ± 15 °C, quenched in agitated water at 15 °C, and tempered at 660 ± 15 °C. Mechanical testing revealed that the Ultimate Tensile Strength (UTS) and Yield Strength (YS) increased by approximately 8.5%, while hardness decreased slightly from 215 HV to 210 HV. Elongation improved from 29% to 32%, indicating enhanced ductility. Microstructural analysis showed a fine ferrite–pearlite structure with an ASTM grain size number greater than 8, confirming effective grain refinement achieved through controlled heat treatment. Overall, the combined hot induction bending, quenching, and tempering processes successfully produced a fine-grained material with improved strength, ductility, and toughness, demonstrating its suitability for high-performance and high-pressure pipeline applications.

Abstract

This study investigates the mechanical and macro structural performance of welded joints produced by Flux-Cored Arc Welding (FCAW) and Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) on API 5L Grade B low-carbon steel pipes used in marine CO2 fire suppression systems. The experimental work involved tensile, bending, hardness, and macro structural tests to evaluate the influence of each welding process on joint integrity. Both FCAW and GTAW joints exhibited high mechanical strength, with ultimate tensile strengths of 506MPa and 516MPa, respectively, exceeding the minimum requirement for API 5L Grade B steel. Fracture occurred in the base metal rather than the weld zone, confirming the superior strength and sound fusion quality of the joints. GTAW demonstrated slightly higher tensile performance and cleaner weld morphology due to the controlled heat input and stable arc achieved with 100% argon shielding, whereas FCAW produced marginally higher hardness in the heat-affected zone due to CO?-induced cooling effects. Macro structural analysis revealed complete penetration and the absence of porosity, slag inclusions, or cracks in both processes. The results comply with AWS D1.1 and ASME Section IX standards, confirming that both welding methods or their hybrid application are suitable for producing safe, reliable, and regulation-compliant marine fire suppression pipelines.

Abstract

This study reviews and analyzes vertical vibrations in the suspension system of passenger vehicles, focusing on the McPherson strut configuration. By synthesizing findings from previous experimental research employing vibration test benches like the UKA-3.5E, the dynamic response of suspensions under varying frequencies and tire inflation pressures is examined. Results indicate that tire pressure significantly influences vibration amplitude and duration, aligning with theories that model tire stiffness as a parallel spring element affecting overall suspension dynamics. The analysis also highlights the effectiveness of multi-sensor approaches, including proximity sensors and load cells, in capturing real-time vibrational behavior. Understanding these relationships is vital for optimizing suspension performance and developing strategies to reduce vibrations, thereby improving vehicle stability, occupant comfort, and safety.

Abstract

Wind energy represents one of Indonesia’s most promising renewable energy resources, with a national potential estimated at approximately 60 GW. However, its implementation remains limited due to insufficient site-specific assessments and feasibility studies. This research analyzes the wind energy potential at Galang District Beach, Batam City, and evaluates the technical suitability of the Sky Dancer 500 (TSD 500) wind turbine equipped with inversed-taper blades for small-scale electricity generation. A descriptive quantitative method was employed using secondary wind speed data from NASA (2014–2018) and primary measurements collected continuously for 30 days. Results show that Galang District Beach, Batam City exhibits average wind speeds ranging from 4 to 13.41 m/s, with a maximum recorded speed of 13.41 m/s. Based on technical analysis, low-speed wind characteristics align well with the operational profile of a horizontal-axis wind turbine utilizing inversed-taper blades. Estimations indicate that the TSD 500 turbine can generate 390–500 Wh of electricity per day under the observed wind conditions. These findings demonstrate that the site possesses adequate potential for micro-scale wind power development, and deploying ten units of the TSD 500 turbine could supply daily electrical needs for approximately ten households. The study contributes to the growing body of literature on decentralized renewable energy solutions for remote and coastal communities in Indonesia..

Abstract

Welding is one of the most commonly used metal joining processes in the manufacturing and construction industries. However, this process often results in defects in the weld joint, especially in manual welding of carbon steel, which can affect the quality and strength of the joint. This study aims to analyze the types of welding defects that occur in manual welding of carbon steel, identify their main causes, and provide technical solutions to minimize such defects. The methods used include visual inspection, penetrant testing (PT), and macrostructure examination of the welded joints. The results show that the most common defects found are porosity, undercut, incomplete fusion, and slag inclusion. The primary causes of these defects include improper welding parameter settings, inadequate cleanliness of the metal surface, and the skill level of the operator. As solutions, it is recommended to conduct regular operator training, adjust current and voltage according to the type of electrode used, and ensure proper surface preparation before welding. This study is expected to serve as a reference for industry practitioners in improving the quality of carbon steel weld joints

Abstract

Alat pendeteksi dan pengusir monyet otomatis berbasis Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) dengan mikrokontroler Raspberry Pi dikembangkan untuk mengatasi permasalahan hama monyet yang kerap merusak tanaman di perkebunan kelompok Tani Tunas Baru. Sistem ini menggunakan kamera webcam untuk mendeteksi keberadaan monyet dalam radius hingga 35 meter dan menghasilkan suara tembakan yang terdengar hingga 250 meter guna mengusir hama secara otomatis. Energi listrik untuk alat ini diperoleh dari panel surya karena areal pertanian tersebut belum terjangkau oleh jaringan listrik. Implementasi alat menunjukkan hasil yang signifikan, yaitu penurunan kerusakan tanaman dari rata-rata sembilan pohon menjadi hanya tiga pohon per serangan monyet, atau setara dengan penurunan sebesar 67%. Teknologi ini menjadi solusi yang lebih efektif dan efisien dibandingkan metode manual yang membutuhkan penjagaan secara terus-menerus. Proyek ini mengusung inovasi modern yang relevan dengan kebutuhan lokal, dengan mengintegrasikan sumber energi terbarukan dan teknologi deteksi berbasis citra. Selain itu, sistem ini berpotensi untuk direplikasi di wilayah lain yang menghadapi permasalahan serupa, guna mendukung ketahanan pangan dan meningkatkan kesejahteraan masyarakat pedesaan melalui solusi yang inovatif dan berkelanjutan.
