Abstract

Deformation in welded joints can reduce the precision, strength, and service life of a structure, especially in structural carbon steel commonly used in the construction industry. One of the main factors influencing deformation is the type and angle of the weld groove. This study aims to analyze the effect of groove type and angle variations on deformation in butt joint welding of structural carbon steel. The method used is a numerical simulation based on the Finite Element Method (FEM) using ANSYS software, consisting of transient thermal and transient structural analyses. The groove variations include V-grooves with angles of 45°, 60°, and 75°, as well as U-grooves with angles of 50°, 60°, and 70°. The simulation results show that the V-groove with a 45° angle produces the maximum deformation of 2.1317 mm, while the U-groove with a 70° angle results in the minimum deformation of 0.23808 mm. These findings indicate that U-grooves generally produce lower deformation compared to V-grooves. Therefore, selecting the appropriate groove design can enhance the quality of weld joints and the overall structural performance.

Abstract

Most industrial processes utilize fluids as a medium for as a medium for transporting materials, both liquid and gas. Pipes as one of the channel components for fluid distribution are often difficult to avoid in their placement. Pressure drop often occurs in pipe bends which can reduce system efficiency. This study aims to examine the effect of variations in 900 pipe elbow design and velocity inlet on pressure drop. The method in this research is the Computational Fluid Dynamics method on Ansys Fluent 2024 R2 Student version software. In this study, 3 elbow pipe designs with the same pipe diameter and connection position dimensions were compared. The connection process is carried out at the same height so that gravity is treated in the same position. The results of this study show that elbow design 1 has the smallest pressure drop value compared to the other two elbow designs. This is clearly seen in the simulation results of pressure drop values, velocity magnitude vectors profiles, visualization of contours statics pressure and velocity magnitude. The conclusion of this research is that the pressure drop value is strongly influenced by elbow design and velocity inlet. If the velocity inlet increases, the pressure drop value also increases. While in the elbow design if the sharper the turn angle, the greater the pressure drop value will be. Based on the resulting pressure drop value, elbow 1 design is more efficient than the other two elbow designs because it has a lower pressure drop value.

Abstract

Variation of airfoil profile shape in race car rear wings plays a crucial role in generating optimal downforce to improve traction and vehicle stability. The main issue addressed in this study is the lack of clarity regarding which airfoil profile and angle of attack configuration are most effective in producing the highest downforce coefficient (Cdown). This research aims to analyze the aerodynamic performance of symmetric airfoils NACA 0012 and NACA 0015 at three different angles of attack, namely 9.5°, 19.5°, and 29.5°, using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation. The simulations were performed under steady-state flow conditions with an appropriate turbulence model to accurately capture pressure distribution and airflow characteristics. Results show that NACA 0012 generated higher and more stable Cdown values at low to medium angles, with the highest value of 1.4 at 29.5°. In contrast, NACA 0015 exhibited a more gradual performance increase and reached a Cdown of 1.2 only at the highest angle. The study concludes that slender airfoil profiles like NACA 0012 are more suitable for circuits with sharp corners, while NACA 0015 is better suited for straight tracks requiring progressive aerodynamic stability. This research contributes to optimizing rear wing design based on the aerodynamic demands of race cars.

Abstract

This descriptive study aims to analyze the effect of shaft diameter on the natural frequency and maximum deformation of a rotating shaft system. The analysis was conducted through numerical simulation using ANSYS Workbench software. The shaft and two symmetrically positioned disks were modeled, and a modal analysis was performed using the Finite Element Method (FEM) to determine the system’s first ten vibration modes. Simulation results showed that the natural frequencies ranged from 80.495 Hz to 280.4 Hz, with a maximum deformation of 58.903 mm occurring in the 9th mode. The lower modes (modes 1–6) exhibited lower frequencies but higher deformation, while higher modes (modes 7–10) showed more complex vibration patterns with consistently significant deformation values. This indicates that higher frequency does not necessarily result in lower deformation, and the system may still experience critical vibration. These findings demonstrate that the shaft's geometric configuration, including diameter and mass distribution of the disks, significantly affects its dynamic behavior. The simulation provides deeper insight into the vibration characteristics of the critical speed shaft apparatus used in practical experiments and serves as a reference for validating theoretical approaches such as the Dunkerley and Rayleigh methods.

Abstract

Drum brakes are one of the crucial components in motor vehicle braking systems, particularly in motorcycles, due to their advantages in production cost and resistance to environmental contamination. However, this type of brake has limitations in dissipating heat during braking, which can lead to temperature accumulation, thermal deformation, and reduced braking efficiency. This study aims to analyze the thermo-mechanical performance of drum brakes with various cooling groove designs (solid, straight-grooved, and slant-grooved) using a numerical method based on Finite Element Analysis (FEA) in ANSYS Workbench. The analysis was conducted in a transient manner, both thermally and structurally, to evaluate temperature distribution and total deformation for each design. The results show that the slant-grooved drum brake design yields the lowest temperature distribution and total deformation values, especially at high braking speeds, with a temperature distribution of 56.899 °C and total deformation of 17.67 × 10⁻³ mm. These findings indicate that groove design significantly affects the heat dissipation and structural deformation performance of the brake system. The study concludes that the slant-grooved design is superior in reducing heat and deformation, thereby offering the potential to improve braking safety and efficiency.

Abstract

The dwindling availability of fossil-based energy sources has spurred breakthroughs in the evolution of eco-conscious transportation, one of which is manifested in the Indonesian Electric Car Competition (Kompetisi Mobil Listrik Indonesia – KMLI). In this arena, collegiate teams engineer lightweight, single-occupant electric prototype vehicles emphasizing energy thrift. Nonetheless, spatial constraints and performance optimization frequently take precedence over ergonomic design, heightening the likelihood of musculoskeletal strain. This investigation seeks to examine bodily discomforts related to the musculoskeletal system as encountered by the operator of a prototype electric vehicle, employing the Nordic Body Map (NBM) assessment tool. The inquiry adopted a descriptive format via a focused case analysis involving the primary driver from the Megathrust Eco Team representing Universitas Negeri Padang (UNP) in the 2024 KMLI. Post-operation, the participant filled out the NBM form to denote discomfort regions, referencing a Likert-type scale from 1 (no pain) to 4 (extreme pain). The outcomes identified the cervical region, shoulders, dorsum, and lumbar zone as areas with elevated distress, classified under Pain and Intense Pain levels, thus revealing substantial ergonomic concerns. From these insights, it is inferred that the seating layout and cockpit geometry must be reconsidered and fine-tuned according to the driver’s anthropometric dimensions to alleviate physical complaints and boost vehicular comfort. The study aspires to aid in fostering electric vehicles that are more attuned to human-centered design, balancing well-being and operational safety.

Abstract

The development of renewable energy in Indonesia is a strategic effort to meet increasing energy demands while reducing dependence on fossil fuels. One promising approach is utilizing river flow for micro-hydro power generation, particularly with vortex turbines that operate efficiently under low head and discharge conditions. This study aims to analyze the effect of varying bottom blade inclination angles on the torque generated by a vortex turbine using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations. The research employed ANSYS Fluent with a k-ω SST turbulence model and used a three-dimensional numerical method to evaluate three inclination angles: 22.5°, 32°, and 42°. The results show that blade inclination significantly influences torque values, with the 22.5° angle producing the highest torque of 10.95 Nm, followed by 32° at 10.79 Nm, and 42° at 10.58 Nm. These findings indicate that optimizing blade inclination improves turbine performance, contributing to the development of efficient micro-hydro systems for renewable energy applications.

Abstract

The integration of technology in vocational education has become a critical need to support 21st-century skills, especially in practice-based learning such as Basic Mechanical Engineering subjects. One promising innovation is the use of Augmented Reality (AR) media, which enables interactive three-dimensional visualization to help students concretely understand abstract concepts. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of lathe-based AR media in improving student learning outcomes and motivation in Grade X of the Machining Engineering Department at SMK Semen Padang. The research employed a quasi-experimental method using a non-equivalent control group design. The subjects consisted of two classes: the experimental class (using AR media) and the control class (using conventional learning methods). Data were collected using pre-tests and post-tests to assess learning outcomes and Likert-scale questionnaires to evaluate learning motivation. The analysis results showed that the use of AR media significantly increased student learning outcomes and motivation compared to traditional methods. Based on hypothesis testing and normalized gain score analysis, the AR media was found to be highly effective in the learning process. In conclusion, lathe-based Augmented Reality media proved to be an effective interactive learning tool that enhances students' academic performance and motivation, while also contributing to the development of innovative media in technical education.

Abstract

This study aims to measure the geometrical accuracy of complex object scanning using the Artec Leo 3D scanner. The scanned object is a wheel rim, with eight combinations of parameters including variations in distance (50 cm and 100 cm), scanning angle (45° and 90°), and lighting conditions (indoor and outdoor). Deviations were measured from four reference points on the scanned model and compared to a reference model. The results show that the Indoor configuration with a scanning distance of 50 cm and a scanning angle of 90° gives the smallest deviation of 0.025 mm (0.01%), while the Outdoor configuration with a scanning distance of 50 cm and a scanning angle of 45° produces the largest deviation of -3.275 mm (-1.80%). The overall average deviation of all combinations is -0.63 mm or -0.36%, indicating that the Artec Leo can produce high accuracy if configured with the right parameters. The smallest deviation was obtained under indoor scanning conditions with a scanning distance of 50 cm and a scanning angle of 90°.
