Abstract

Inventory to transport transition was a critical operation that requires high efficiency in manufacturing. This study models the inventory transition of manufacturing plants in a supply chain network. The objective was to configure the minimum fleet utilization with fastest waiting time.  The configuration was performed using reinforcement learning assisted agent-based model (ABM) simulation. The ABM with fleet speed control have the best performance with average waiting time of 5.84 hours with lowest fleet utilization which surpasses other models. Lower fleet and waiting time provide rest periods for the driver. Therefore, performing speed control during transport improves human factor of the supply chain operation.

Abstract

Hydrogen is an alternative fuel due to its environmental friendliness and abundance. Hydrogen can be produced through water-splitting technique, in which the Oxygen (O2) and Hydrogen (H2) are separated. Water electrolysis is one of many causes of water-splitting that effectively results H2 with high purity. One drawback of electrolysis is the low efficiency. In this study, a rice straw natural surfactant was utilized to improve the efficiency. Rice straw with the volume of 5 ml, 10 ml, dan 15 ml were added to the electrolyte solution. This study shows the rice straw based natural surfactant contains hydrophilic and hydrophobic sides. Both sides capable to reduce the surface tension of the solution which destabilizes water molecules. The aromatic magnetic field of rice straw surfactant homogenizes the water net dipole moment due to the diamagnetism of water. These contributes towards the weakened hydrogen bond of the water in the solution. The synergy between hydrophobic and hydrophilic sides is potent to alter hydrogen production rate through intrinsic magnetism.

Abstract

Water electrolysis promises the capability to produce green hydrogen in the future. The efficiency and hydrogen evolution reaction rate (HER) of water electrolysis can be improved through magnetic field assisted electrolysis. External magnetic field exposure improves hydrogen production without requiring complex catalyst synthesis technique. The purpose of this study is to introduce chaos into a magnetic field assisted electrolysis system which disturbs the water molecules stability. The chaos effect was triggered by irregular flux reflection technique. The flux reflection was generated using diamagnetic tourmaline stones which sticked all over the electrolyzer wall. Consequently, the rotational speed of DMF does not reduce the effectiveness of chaotic flux. As a result, the hydrogen bond of the water molecules is destabilized irregularly. In conjuction with that, the bonds are unable to be reformed which make the water molecules continuously in movement. The critical effect of chaotic flux is the shear force that experienced by water molecules. The paramagnetic OH- ion movement is also slowed down so that H+ ion and electrons interaction were occurred in less restrictive manner. Hence, the chaotic magnetic field able to improve HER.  The chaotic flux reflection improves hydrogen production in magnetic field assisted water electrolysis through water properties and ion transfer mechanism modification.

Abstract

This study investigates the thermal dynamics of the Czochralski (CZ) process for silicon crystal growth through numerical simulations. The simulation method of this study is based on finite element method (FEM) heat transfer simulation. The FEM simulation was performed using triangular mesh in half cross section of CZ system with real material properties. The analysis of heat transfer mechanisms includes conduction, convection, and radiation which reflect the impact of cooled argon convection on crystal growth. The simulations reveal that convection currents driven by cooled argon has a crucial role to promote uniform cooling which control crystal growth. This leads to enhanced mono-crystalline silicon ingot crystal quality and purity. Ultimately, insights gained from this study can inform optimization efforts in semiconductor manufacturing, facilitating advancements in electronic device fabrication.

Abstract

This study investigates the synthesis and characterization of semiconducting materials derived from rice husk bio-activated by pineapple peel juice, presenting an eco-friendly and sustainable approach. The organic photo-active semiconducting material from rice husk ash (RHA) is synthesized. RHA was activated by immersion in the pineapple juice solution. Distinct structural disparities among RHA, Sunken Carbon nanomaterial (SCNM), and Floating Carbon Nanomaterial (FCNM) materials are revealed through SEM imaging, showcasing the tailored nature of each material. The SEM images also indicate the role of bromelain from the pineapple juice to provide defects on the RHA carbon surface. The crack on the nano particles on the surface of SCNM and FCNM were formed due to the bromelain electrostatic interaction with the surface. Elemental analysis indicates a higher probability of CuO and Si presence in SCNM, suggesting its potential for semiconductor extraction. The Cu to Si ratio implies photoactivity, confirmed by UV-Vis characterization showing absorption peaks in the UV region. FTIR analysis highlights enhanced polar interactions in SCNM and FCNM, attributed to the activation process involving bromelain in pineapple juice. The photoelectric effect testing shows FCNM and SCNM generates more electrical current as exposed to light which. The current was generated due to the electron transport phenomenon of CuO and Si content triggered by photons. The study provides insights into the materials' molecular structures and potential applications in sensors, energy devices, and semiconductor-related technologies, leveraging the unique properties of bio-derived nanomaterials for practical implementation.

Abstract

This study employs a novel Markov-chain modeling framework to analyze the combustion-performance interaction in a hydrogen-fueled spark-ignition engine. The methodology integrates a Wiebe heat-release model within a Markov-chain state-transition framework, where each discrete engine state defines combustion parameters and probabilistic transitions capture cycle-to-cycle variability. Results demonstrate that engine behavior is dominantly governed by combustion phasing, with spark timing exerting primary control over torque, efficiency, and brake-specific fuel consumption (BSFC). Sensitivity analysis confirms spark timing produces the steepest performance gradients, while ignition voltage offers secondary benefits and engine speed exhibits minimal influence. The model reveals a highly nonlinear torque response to spark advance, characterized by a rapid rise culminating in a narrow maximum brake torque (MBT) plateau at 8°–10° BTDC, corresponding to a distinct BSFC minimum. Significant data scatter underscores the stochastic nature of hydrogen combustion, arising from multidomain interactions between air-fuel ratio, ignition strength, and phasing. The Markov-chain approach successfully captures this coupled deterministic-probabilistic behavior, highlighting the critical need for precise spark-timing control to optimize performance in hydrogen applications.

Abstract

This study investigates the synthesis of porous graphene oxide (GO) derived from banana leaf waste using the Flash Joule Heating (FJH) method for supercapacitor electrode applications. Carbonization was conducted at input voltages of 5, 10, and 15 VA for 2 s, followed by activation with 0.3 M KOH. Structural characterization (SEM, EDX, FTIR, and XRD) confirmed the formation of hierarchical porous carbon with oxygen-containing functional groups. Electrochemical evaluation revealed that the sample synthesized at 10 VA exhibited the best performance, achieving a specific capacitance of 345 F g⁻¹, low internal resistance of 0.65 Ω, and capacitance retention of 95% after 500 cycles. In contrast, the 5 VA sample showed lower conductivity due to its amorphous structure, while the 15 VA sample exhibited reduced capacitance due to excessive macropore formation. These results demonstrate that controlled FJH voltage plays a critical role in optimizing pore structure and electrochemical performance, highlighting banana leaf-derived GO as a promising and sustainable electrode material for high-performance supercapacitors.

Abstract

Hydrogen production using photocatalysis with activated carbon (AC) combined with curcumin and CTP has been investigated. Curcumin contains two aromatic rings and two ”“OH groups, while CTP contains two aromatic rings, one pyran heterocyclic ring, and six ”“OH groups at specific positions. However, the combined performance of these materials with AC has not been fully optimized, highlighting the need for further research to understand their chemical interactions in photocatalytic processes and their potential for renewable energy applications. This study aimed to determine the role of pyran heterocyclic rings and ”“OH groups in hydrogen production. The results showed that hydrogen production using pure AC was 115.75 μmol/g, while AC + curcumin and AC + CTP produced 1297.8 μmol/g and 1462.6 μmol/g, respectively. The higher hydrogen production in AC + CTP compared to AC + curcumin is attributed to the presence of pyran heterocyclic rings, which enhance photocatalyst stability and efficiency by reducing electron”“hole recombination and expanding the light absorption spectrum, thereby increasing hydrogen evolution. Although the stacking interactions and active sites in the form of ”“OH, C”“H, and C”“O groups in AC + CTP are fewer than in AC + curcumin, the presence of oxygen atoms in the pyran heterocyclic ring contributes to greater hydrogen production. This study contributes to the selection of effective photocatalyst materials based on compound composition to support clean and sustainable hydrogen energy as an alternative to fossil fuels.
