Abstract

This study investigated the moldability and the mechanical properties of bio-composite with rice husk as natural reinforcement. Natural materials that are abundant in nature can be used as reinforcement for polymer materials. Natural materials as reinforcement in plastic materials were used to obtain alternative materials in an injection molding process. With rice husk, polypropylene, and MAPP, four compositions of bio-composite materials were made and used as raw material injection molding process. The moldability from this material was observed through visualization of the product. The mechanical properties of the materials were observed by the tensile strength and impact test on the injection molding product. The result showed that these materials could be injected to form ASTM D638-03 Type V tensile test and ASTM D256-04 impact test specimens. Visually, the more rice husk on the bio-composite material, the darker the product color. The differences in tensile strength values decreased along with increased rice husk content. All bio-composite materials had roughly the same tensile strength value and were lower than polypropylene, except RH-5%. The impact value of bio-composites was lower than polypropylene impact value and tended to decline along with the increase in the rice husk content. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) analyzes were done on the fracture side of the impact specimen. Microscale voids decreased and were rarely found by adding rice husk to the material bio-composite. On the other hand, rice husk breakage and pullout phenomenon on bio-composite material were found.

Abstract

During maintenance of the turbine and its auxiliary equipment, which requires a stop of the turbine oil system equipment and an open turbine casing, the first stage metal temperature requirement must be below 150°C. The normal stop unit method with natural cooling takes about 14 to 17 days. In order to speed up the cooling time to 5 days, a forced cooling turbine is needed using the stop unit method with sliding pressure. The heat transfer that occurs in the high-pressure turbine during the stop unit process with sliding pressure was investigated using the numerical method of CFD simulation. The 2D geometry design was made from high-pressure turbine cutouts images. Then meshing was made. The solver stage and the post-processing stage were set. The simulation was running in a steady state and followed by transients. The validation method was to compare the first stage metal temperature parameter between the actual process and the results of the CFD simulation at a load of 350 MW, then re-simulate it at 500 MW and 645 MW. The stop unit process with sliding pressure starting at 645MW resulted in the best final cooling compared to the stop unit at 500 MW and 350MW loads. By increasing the main steam flow, the resulting cooling increases. By increasing the value of the fluid flow velocity, the Reynolds number increases, so the convection heat coefficient also increases.

Abstract

In this paper, a novel graphical user interface is developed for kinematic analysis and synthesis of five-bar linkage with prismatic joint, named KASITS. This interface has two menus that the users can freely select, namely for analysis and synthesis. In the analysis menu, the direct kinematics are derived to visually depict the overall workspace of the mechanism. Within this workspace, the singularity curves are plotted. In the synthesis menu, the value of design parameters is obtained for a given trajectory. An optimization is employed based on Pareto optimal solutions. The demonstration is provided to guide the users better.

Abstract

The objective of this research is to introduce a mathematical model of wear volume of Archard’s equation influenced by speed variable. Some researchers have studied the wear volume due to sliding speed, roughness and coefficient of friction. However, mathematical model dealing with sliding speed has never been explicitly reported. Wear analysis is oftenly expressed experimentally through charts concerning both wear volume and sliding speed instead of mathematics. This research is started by modeling mathematical representation within Buckingham Pi Theory. The mathematical parameter contains wear volume, hardness, normal loads, sliding speed, sliding distance, and density of materials. Buckingham Pi model produces three sets of equation. Two of these sets yields Archard’s equation. By combining the third set, the modified Archard’s equation is determined. Since Buckingham set requires a constant of equality, the equation is verified by experiment data. This value is called Wear-Speed Coefficient. Experiment using pin-on-disk tribometer is conducted by varying sliding speed. Further more, those parameters are applied to estimate wear volumes. Materials which are used for this verification are NBR Rubber Nitril, Ultra High Molecular Weight Poly Ethylene (UHMWPE), and Poly Tetra Fluoro Ethylene (PTFE). In conclusion, the modified Archard equation is determined to estimate wear volumes. Based on the experiment, the model is accurate for UHMWPE, NBR and PTFE. Moreover, ratio of density to material’s hardness is significant to control wear resistance influenced by speed.

Abstract

A comparative study of the effect of melt spinning on the electrochemical properties of the C14 and C15 AB2 alloys has been performed. The wheel speeds of 630, 2100, and 4100 cm/s were applied during the rapid solidification of both alloys. The structural analysis of the formed phases was performed by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), while their microstructural morphology was studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). In both alloys a tremendous grain refinement due to the melt spinning process was observed: In addition, melt spinning also significantly contributed to the morphological variation of the microstructural changes in C14 alloys which showed changes from the equiaxed grain at lower speed to the small dendrites at higher speed. In contrast to the C14 alloys, the morphological variation was not observed for the C15 alloys. Furthermore, for both C14 and C15 alloys melt-spun at 2100 cm/s the maximum capacities of 435 and 414 mAh/g were achieved, respectively. As both alloys revealed the significant grain refinement due to the melt spinning, an increase in electrochemical capacity was achieved. However, the melt spinning parameters need to be further optimized to improve poor activation behavior of the rapidly solidified alloys.

Abstract

This paper studies the response of epoxy-ramie fiber composite as ballistic-resistant material using a finite element model. The simulation test was conducted by varying the number of layers and referred to NIJ 0101.06 Type IV as the boundary condition. The model used was a panel made from epoxy-ramie composite laminates with a certain thickness and a 7.62 mm bullet. NIJ states that ballistic material should withstand penetration, and the back-face signature (BFS) should not exceed 44 mm. The impact energy is not briefly mentioned in NIJ failure criteria. The properties of the composite and the bullet were obtained from scientific literature and previous study. The effect of the number of layers on impact response was evaluated by the penetration, deformation, BFS, and absorbed energy.

Abstract

Through the Regenerative Shock Absorber (RSA) mechanism, wasted energy will be utilized into electrical energy. Hydro-Magneto-Electric Regenerative Shock Absorber (HMERSA) was designed and analyzed with 2 generator outputs installed in series and parallel. The twin-tube shock absorber was modified, so that fluid flow in the chamber is only unidirectional flow. It is passed to four check valves that keep the fluid flow in one direction and towards the 2 hydro-generators installed on the system in series and parallel positions. The hydro-generator converts the linear fluid flow into a rotational motion which causes the generator to rotate and generate energy. HMERSA was tested on minibus with speed bumps types of roads. In the bump test, the harvested energy were 8.2 Volts and 5.97 Volts for HMERSA with 2 generator outputs installed in series, and 5.169 Volts and 4.33 Volts for HMERSA with 2 parallel output generators. From the result, we can conclude that HMERSA with 2 generator outputs installed in series is better than HMERSA with 2 parallel output generators.
