Abstract

This research aims to assess the feasibility of the mechanical strength and the durability of the concrete containing 50% nickel slag and a combination of 15% and 30% fly ash with a water-cement ratio of 0.25 and 0.45 in a marine environment. Four types of concrete, namely OPC-sand (C) as control concrete, OPC-50GNS (S), 15FA-50GNS (F1), and 30FA-50GNS (F2) as comparison concrete, were tested with a 100×200 mm cylindrical specimen. The results showed an increase in the mechanical strength and potential resistance of the comparison concrete at the age of 28 days. While at the age of 180 days, fluctuating changes were found. The compressive strength of S concrete increased by 36.9 and 9.3% respectively, F1 concrete by 37.7% and 1.7%, F2 by 33.7% and 5.9% at ratio 0.45 and 0.25. Likewise, the value of the split tensile strength and modulus of elasticity of concrete. This result was followed by reduced porosity, sorptivity, and chloride penetration resistance as an indication of better concrete durability. Fly ash appears to have a greater positive impact on potential durability than mechanical strength at a water cement ratio of 0.25 versus 0.45. Although the chloride penetration resistance is decent, the compressive strength of concrete with a water-cement ratio of 0.45 does not qualify for application in the marine environment. In contrast, concrete with a water-cement ratio of 0.25 containing 50% nickel slag and the addition of class C fly ash up to 30% was declared suitable for application to concrete in the marine environment zone C2 according to ACI 318-19. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2022-08-12-010 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

The frequencies of time-varying mass systems have not been commonly studied in engineering structures as the rate of mass change is generally small compared to the mass of the overall structure. For silos of granular materials, the total mass of the stored granules can be relatively high compared to the mass of the silo structure. During the flow-in or flow-out of granules, the silo system behaves as a time-varying mass system. Minor changes to the moisture content ratio of the granules can cause their flow characteristics to change. The influence of the moisture content ratio of the granular material inside a cylindrical silo is investigated in this paper using Variational Mode Decomposition, Hilbert Transform, and Hilbert Marginal Spectrum processing methods. The results show that the amplitude and frequency of vibration vary with the change in the moisture content ratio of the stored materials and across different cycles, despite all influencing parameters being kept constant. Such variations in the response of the structure mean that the loads also vary according to the principles of engineering mechanics. The outcomes of this research can be further developed into a diagnostic tool to conditionally monitor the structural integrity of the overall silo structure and flow characteristics automatically. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-01-02 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

River flow assessments and ecologically sustainable water management plans are now possible due to the advancement of sophisticated computer models. The US Army Corps of Engineers developed the HEC-HMS model, which can be used for various hydrological simulations. Rainfall-runoff modeling aids in estimating peak flows, which is critical for water resource management planning. On December 18, 2017, a heavy rainfall event in the ungauged Irawan basin in Puerto Princesa City, Palawan, Philippines, was simulated to determine the peak flow and amount of water. The current research aims to construct a rainfall-runoff simulation model. A specific hyetograph is used to make the hydrographs for the basin. This study utilizes ArcGIS and QGIS, which perform the geospatial analysis and provide the HEC-HMS model's hydrologic modeling inputs. The hydrological parameters were determined using soil type, land use, and land cover maps. Incorporating SCS loss, Clark unit hydrograph, and Muskingum flow routing, HEC-HMS was employed in the rainfall-runoff simulation. Rainfall data corresponding to the recorded streamflow was used to calibrate and validate the parameters. Several performance metrics, including Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency (NSE) and Percentage Bias (PBIAS), were utilized to evaluate the overall effectiveness of the system. An effective decision-making and warning system can be implemented using the developed model. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-01-017 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Pipe fittings are an important element of any pipeline network, ensuring stable and safe operation by regulating the flow of the working medium. To control the performance of pipeline valves, it is necessary to conduct various tests, the main ones of which are hydraulic and pneumatic. It is important to expand testing capabilities and reduce time costs. The purpose of this work is to combine hydraulic and pneumatic tests into one test complex, which will reduce the time of the test complex due to the absence of the need for reinstallation and reconfiguration. The subject of the study is the determination of the design, technical, and operational characteristics of such a stand, as well as the simulation of operating conditions to confirm its operability. During the development, methods of solid and surface modeling, the finite element method, and analytical calculation methods were used. The results of the stand design are presented, and the features of the process of its development are described, including the analysis of the stress-strain state and the analysis of reliability and durability indicators. The obtained values of the distribution of equivalent stresses, deformations, and displacements of the structure elements do not exceed the maximum allowable values and do not lead to destruction. The analysis shows that the developed stand has improved capabilities compared to those previously used. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-01-013 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

This study considers the utilization of bitumen modified with molten polyethylene terephthalate (PET) waste bottles as an alternative binder in paving blocks. PET waste was used at 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10% to modify bitumen in the production of paving blocks. Compressive strength test and skid resistance test were conducted on the paving block samples to evaluate their mechanical strength properties, while water absorption and the Cantabro abrasion tests were carried out to ascertain the durability of the paving block samples. The PET-modified bitumen paving blocks (PMBPB) have enhanced compressive strength and skid resistance compared to unmodified bitumen paving blocks. Also, a significant reduction in water absorption rate of up to 56% was achieved in PET-modified bitumen paving blocks (PMBPB) compared to the unmodified sample. The abrasion loss in the PMBCB samples was the least compared to that in normal cement paving blocks and unmodified bitumen paving blocks. The maximum compressive strength and least water absorption for the PET-modified bitumen concrete paving blocks were obtained at a 10% PET replacement level. It can be concluded that enhanced compressive strength and durability in cement paving blocks and unmodified bitumen paving blocks could be achieved with the use of PET modified bitumen in concrete paving block production, and this will also encourage PET waste recycling and contribute meaningfully to sustainability in concrete paving block production. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-01-08 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Knowing the characteristics of wastewater and its interaction with the channel is crucial to finding a suitable model and maintenance method to solve the closed channel problem. The purpose of this study is to find the relationship and how much it influences the characteristics of wastewater in closed channels and analyze the limit deposit velocity (LDV) of wastewater so that there is no deposition. The parameters used to analyze wastewater characteristics are density, oil and fat, specific gravity, total suspended solids, total dissolved solids, and kinematic viscosity. The parameters used to analyze the flow characteristics in closed channels are velocity, discharge, Reynolds number, friction coefficient, energy loss, and hydraulic gradient. The method used is experimental research by simulating a closed-channel model prototype. The closed channel model is made from an acrylic pipe with a length of 6 m and a pipe diameter of 0.064 m. Simulations on each wastewater sample and the discharge variations used were 0.005, 0.004, 0.003, and 0.0015 m3/s. Velocity measurements at a 0.5 pipe water level height and distances of 0, 2, 4, and 6 m. The results showed that the nature and composition of the wastewater the flow velocity. The large value of wastewater parameters shows that the flow velocity is small. The wastewater content is considered a load that must be transported to the end of the closed channel. When the discharge increases, the velocity will increase, Reynolds number will increase, and the energy loss will be large, while the friction coefficient is inversely proportional to Reynolds number. The velocities of clean water samples are 2.90 - 1.07 m/s, tofu - making is 2.83 - 1.07 m/s, household is 2.74 - 0.85 m/s, laundry is 2.84 - 1.03 m/s, and the workshop is 2.54 - 0.66 m/s. The limit deposit velocity (LDV) for household wastewater is 1.49 m/s to prevent deposition in closed channels. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-01-03 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

The human resource management of a company is important in today's competitive business environment because employees are the support of the company. The performance of employees is crucial to the success of any corporation. Therefore, this study aims to identify the factors that contribute to better employee performance (EP). In this study, recruitment, selection, and training strategies are examined for their influence on EP in the UAE public sector, including the construction and related industries. Researchers used a structured questionnaire, a deductive approach, and a survey strategy to conduct the research. In this quantitative study, cross-sectional data was collected using the mono method. A sample size of 151 employees from the UAE public sector was used for this study. SPSS (statistical software) has been used to analyze the collected data. The analysis of the study confirmed a direct positive link between recruitment procedure (RP), effective selection (ES), training, and EP. The outcomes also showed a robust effect of ES on EP. In UAE public-sector corporations, training appears to be the least significant factor influencing EP. Public sector employers, such as construction and related industries in the UAE, should consider the significance and selection of enhanced EP. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2022-08-12-012 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

This paper develops schematics and evaluates the performance of hybrid mesh turbomachinery at the patenting stage of individual technical solutions. This type of turbomachine uses reduced-sized blades and also forms flow channels with a mesh structure between the blades. The research methods are based on simulations using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and additive technologies. An intermediate conclusion is that a new scientific direction for investigating and creating hybrid mesh turbomachinery equipped with mesh jet control systems was formed to develop Euler's ideas. This paper describes new possibilities for the simultaneous implementation of two workflows in a single impeller: 1) Turbine workflow, and 2) Compressor workflow. Calculation methods showed possible improvements in the performance of the new turbomachines. This paper considers options for mesh turbomachine operation in the two-stage gas generator mode with partial involvement of atmospheric air in the workflow. Preliminary calculations based on examples show that it is possible to expect a two- to four-times increase in thrust when using hybrid mesh turbomachines. Ongoing studies mainly focus on developing multi-mode turbomachinery that works in complicated conditions, such as offshore oil and gas fields, but some research results are applicable in other industries, for example, in developing hybrid propulsion systems or propulsors. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2022-08-12-011 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Rooms with pollutants have a poor impact of 2-5 times greater than outdoors. The lecture hall had the potential to experience a decrease in air quality. This study was conducted to assess microbiological air quality in the general lecture building I Institut Teknologi Sumatra, Lampung, Indonesia, during the COVID-19 pandemic and its relationship with environmental conditions. This study was conducted using a settling sampling technique to count the number of bacteria and fungi in the air. Samples were collected twice daily for five working days. The results showed that the highest concentrations of bacteria and fungi were found at the wifi corner location, at 36.7–1237.2 CFU/m3 and 225.4–1431.2 CFU/m3, respectively. The highest average concentrations of bacteria and fungi at the wifi corner location were found in the afternoon at 479.1 ± 438.1 CFU/m3 and 800 ± 548.4 CFU/m3, respectively. The three locations did not meet the standards of room suitability for humans with immunodeficiencies based on the ACGIH. The location of the wifi corner did not meet the standards of the Minister of Manpower of the Republic of Indonesia No. 5 of 2018 and the WHO regarding microbial standards in the room. The highest value of the Global Microbial Contamination Index (GIMC/m3) was found in the wifi corner (G4: ≥2000 – ≤4000), which is closely related to population density and ventilation. Environmental factors influence the density of bacteria and fungi at the sampling sites. The relative humidity strongly influenced the concentration of fungi. In addition to relative humidity, bacterial density is also affected by light intensity and the number of people. This indicates that despite restrictions on activities during the COVID-19 pandemic, the room at GKU 1 did not meet the eligibility requirements for students with immune disorders. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-01-09 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

In this study, a finite element analysis is conducted to study the behaviour of RC beams with different configurations of transverse reinforcement under torsion. These configurations of stirrups are traditional closed stirrups, circular spiral stirrups, and inclined rectangular spiral stirrups. The numerical torsional load values are compared with the experimental torsional load values from previous research. The numerical analysis determined by the ANSYS software shows a reasonable agreement with the experimental torsional load values. The numerical results demonstrate that the use of continuous rectangular spiral stirrups improved the torsional response compared to using another type of beam stirrup. Thus, numerical results show that continuous spiral stirrups are effective at increasing torsional capacity. It is also noted that the behaviour of these beams with continuous spiral stirrups is better than the behaviour of the beams with traditional stirrups. The beams with helical reinforcement, which are TB2, TB3, and TB4 spiral reinforcements, greatly enhanced the toughness. The equivalent stresses are 13.709, 13.728, 14.72, and 15.894 MPa, while the equivalent elastic strains are 0.00421, 0.00377, 0.00347, and 0.00539 mm/mm for the beams TB2, TB3, and TB4, respectively. The beam TB4 had the highest stress and strain value, so its strength improved its ductility properties. As a result, the stirrups' configurations enabled the detection of beam failure mechanisms by improving torsional behaviour when compared to the beam's traditional stirrups. As a result, this research adds more knowledge to the literature on the most effective spiral stirrups for transverse reinforcement to improve the torsional behaviour of beams. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-01-04 Full Text: PDF
