Indonesia has a large variety of natural fibers in abundance. Some of natural fibers become organic waste if not used for something needed by humans. One of the potential uses of natural fiber composite materials is to be used in automotive components. But before natural fiber composites are used in automotive components, it is necessary to examine first what are the requirements for mechanical properties or other properties required by the automotive components. Especially the automotive components which have been made from Polymers, like dash board, Car interior walls, front and rear bumper and Car body, etc. Each of these automotive components has different function and condition, and that caused different mechanical properties needed. The purpose of this study is collecting the data from the literature, related to the properties needed for these automotive components. This study was conducted by studying the literature of research journals in the last 10 years. From the research journals, data on the requirements of mechanical properties for automotive components will be collected. Furthermore, the data of mechanical properties required for automotive components can be used as a reference to determine the reliability of automotive components made from composite

The alternator or dynamo ampere is a device that functions as a generator that produces alternating current (AC) and converts it to direct current (DC). Signs of damage that often occur due to damage to the Alternator are the smell of burning, squeaking, dim spotlights, indicator lights, malfunction of the battery, and the supply of electricity. These signs will cause the vehicle to stop in the middle of the trip the electricity supply is very lacking. This requires that preventive maintenance checks on the alternator are a must in the automotive world. In this paper we research measuring the vibration of the alternator due to the influence of rotation speed (750 rpm and 1800 rpm), to predict damage to the alternator of the Daihatsu Luxio vehicle. The results of this study indicate that at the rotational speed of 750 rpm and 1800 rpm, were found 1x rpm the condition of the vibration amplitude on the alternator is smaller than the alternator in poor condition, this is due to the presence of an unbalanced alternator. Also, vibration due to misalignment is obtained because it has characteristics, among others: vibrations with a frequency of 1xRPM and/or accompanied by a relatively large 2xRPM, and relatively high vibration in the axial direction.

Lego Mindstorms education robot is an interactive robot because it can be used to design various kinds of robot applications. This robot can be used to design sorting robots before they are applied to real robots. Many sorting techniques are in the form of colorful objects, but only for one-time sorting. This research will design and implement a color sorting robot with 2 detection stages, namely the conveyor and the robot arm, the initial sorting is carried out by the conveyor for sorting color objects, the next sorting uses the robot arm. to move the selected color object to a place that matches the desired color. The results obtained in sorting color objects using 1 color sensor and Bluetooth for communication between the conveyor and the robot arm via Bluetooth works well where three objects in red, blue and green can be moved according to the desired color object.

Car Plate Number Recognition System is an important platform that can be used to identify a car vehicle identity. The Recognition System is based on image processing techniques and computer vision. A webcam is used to capture an image of the car plate number from different distance, and the identification is conducted through four processes of stages: Image Acquisition Pre-processing, Extraction, Segmentation, and Character Recognition. The Acquisition Pre-processing stage is extracted the region of interest of the image. The image is captured by live video of the webcam, then converted to grayscale and binary image. The Extraction stage is extracted the plate number characters from binary image using a connected components method. In the Segmentation stage is done by implementing horizontal projection as well as moving average filter. Lastly, in the Character Recognition, is used to identify the segmented characters of the plate number using optical character recognition. The proposed method is worked well for Malaysian's private cars plate number, and can be implemented in car park system to increase level of security of the system by confirming the bar code of the parking ticket and the plate number of the car at the incoming and outgoing gates.

The autorotation phenomena of bladeless symmetric objects exposed to fluid flow have promised power generation from the kinetic energy of natural water and air currents. Our past experiments on bladeless turbine models suggest non-linear correlation between the flow speed and power production. This report explores factors such as flow obstacles and turbine’s position that may affect the power generation of such turbines at Reynolds numbers around 10,000 to 50,000. Using a custom-made water flow tank, we tested the power production and generated drag forces of 3D-printed bladeless turbine models under various conditions of flow. Results indicate the significant effect of flow straightener and flow perturbation to the power production. Additionally, the effects of turbine infill density and flow speed on the generated drag and measured rotation-per-minute (rpm) are reported. The minimal effects from the turbine’s weight and position in the water flow on the power production require further exploration

Two dimensional finite area method simulation was conducted to optimize the convective cooling performance of a transmission cooling scoop for longitudinal vehicle powertrain applications. Cooling of the transmission in an automobile is important to prevent premature wear or sudden failure caused by prolonged overheating of internal transmission components. The most common method for transmission cooling requires a small energy input for powering a pump to cool the transmission by circulating transmission fluid through a heat exchanger. An alternative cooling method was designed utilizing a simple scoop geometry to induce forced convection from ambient air to cool the transmission with no energy input requirement. Two dimensional simulation of this alternative cooling method was conducted in ANSYS Fluent. Fluid flow and heat transfer performance were analyzed for three proposed cooling scoop designs. Further flow optimization was achieved with parametric study regarding angle at which the cooling scoop is positioned relative to the transmission. Three dimensional simulation was conducted for improved observation of the physical model. Based on the simulation results, optimal geometry and future design improvements have been determined. A peak simulated heat transfer of 11.14 kW/m^2 was achieved with scoop angle of 45 degrees. Future research investigating the effects of induced turbulence to improve convective heat transfer would be beneficial.
