Abstract

The increasing adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) reflects growing global awareness of climate change and air pollution challenges. As a sustainable alternative to conventional internal combustion vehicles, EVs produce zero tailpipe emissions and can significantly reduce carbon emissions—particularly when powered by renewable energy sources. However, one of the primary barriers to widespread EV adoption remains the high cost of battery components, which are essential to vehicle performance and energy storage. In Indonesia, two dominant battery types used in EVs are Lithium Ferro Phosphate (LFP) and Nickel Manganese Cobalt (NMC), each offering distinct advantages. LFP batteries are recognized for their thermal stability and longer life cycles, making them suitable for everyday use, while NMC batteries offer higher energy density and are preferred for performance-focused and long-distance applications. This study aims to evaluate the correlation between battery capacity, driving range, and charging time for LFP and NMC batteries using Pearson correlation and regression analysis through MATLAB simulation. The results indicate a strong and statistically significant correlation among the key parameters, with a Pearson coefficient of 0.576 for battery capacity and range, and an R-square value of 0.99 for the regression model, demonstrating high predictive accuracy. Furthermore, the analysis reveals that LFP batteries have a higher average energy efficiency of 7.53 km/kWh compared to 6.84 km/kWh for NMC batteries, indicating more consistent performance in energy usage. These findings offer valuable insights for optimizing battery selection in EV applications and contribute to strategic planning for the development of more efficient electric vehicle systems. The combination of statistical and simulation-based analysis provides a robust foundation for future research and policy-making in the field of electric mobility.

Abstract

The increasing demand for lightweight yet high-strength components in the automotive and aerospace industries has accelerated interest in Incremental Sheet Forming (ISF) as a flexible, dieless, and cost-effective manufacturing process, particularly for low-volume and customized production. Unlike conventional forming processes that rely on expensive dies, ISF offers greater geometric flexibility and rapid prototyping capabilities. However, its broader industrial adoption remains limited due to persistent challenges such as poor surface finish, springback, and restricted formability, especially when forming hard-to-deform materials like Stainless Steel Grade 304 (SS304). This study investigates the influence of customized heat treatment on the formability and deformation quality of SS304 sheets formed via ISF. Sheets were subjected to preheating at controlled temperatures ranging from room temperature to 700°C, followed by dieless forming using a CNC machining center equipped with a hemispherical tungsten carbide tool. Key process parameters, including a step size of 0.3 mm, a feed rate of 180 mm/min, and a tool speed of 500 mm/min, were maintained throughout forming. Comprehensive mechanical and microstructural analyses, including tensile testing, surface roughness evaluation, and optical metallography, were performed. Results revealed significant improvements in formability: ductility increased from 24.28% to 65%, and surface roughness (Ra) decreased from 9.7993 µm to 5.4809 µm after annealing at 700°C and tempering at 500°C. Microstructural analysis confirmed grain refinement and carbide dissolution, contributing to improved plastic flow and reduced surface defects. Integrating controlled heat treatment with ISF significantly enhances forming capabilities, surface quality, and geometric precision of SS304, making it a viable solution for manufacturing complex, high-performance components. These findings provide valuable insights for developing more efficient, defect-minimized, and adaptable forming strategies suitable for advanced manufacturing industries.

Abstract

This study developed an environmentally friendly composite material for use in roller weights of Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) systems in motorcycles. The composite, made from teak wood powder (Tectona grandis L.F.) and epoxy resin, was formulated as an alternative to conventional PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene), which is less environmentally sustainable. The composite was fabricated using the hot-press method, with variations in the teak-resin composition ratios (60:40, 70:30, and 80:20) and hot-press temperatures (160°C, 170°C, and 180°C). The results showed that the composite with a 60:40 composition at 180°C and 20 bar pressure achieved the highest tensile strength of 25 MPa, exceeding that of conventional roller weight material (23 MPa). Tensile testing was conducted in accordance with ASTM D3039 standards. In addition to its superior mechanical performance, the material also utilizes biomass waste and has the potential to reduce production costs. These findings demonstrate that teak wood powder composite is a viable candidate for strong, durable roller weight applications and supports the development of more sustainable automotive components.

Abstract

This study applies to the Reliability-Centered Maintenance (RCM) II methodology to improve the reliability and cost efficiency of a kiln system in a cement manufacturing plant. Kiln failures are critical because they cause unplanned downtime, reduced productivity, and financial losses. Traditional corrective or time-based maintenance strategies often fail to address the stochastic nature of failures in such high-temperature rotary systems. To overcome this gap, the research integrates Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) with RCM II decision logic to identify and prioritize maintenance actions. The analysis focused on five critical kiln components—crusher cooler, firebrick lining, thrust roller, grate cooler, and main drive—using 12 months of operational data supported by expert interviews and technical manuals. Reliability indicators, including Mean Time to Failure (MTTF), Mean Time to Repair (MTTR), and Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF), were calculated, while Risk Priority Numbers (RPN) were assigned to rank failure modes. Results showed that the crusher cooler had the highest risk, whereas the main drive required the longest repair duration. Implementation of RCM II recommendations increased MTBF by 29–38% across components and reduced maintenance costs by more than 50%. These findings confirm that RCM II provides a practical, data-driven framework for enhancing system availability. The study contributes to maintenance engineering by demonstrating a structured approach that supports risk-informed and condition-based maintenance strategies in continuous-process industries.

Abstract

6061 aluminum alloys are widely used in automotive, marine, and aerospace industries, yet their high susceptibility to corrosion in acidic and chloride environments remains a challenge. Bio-based inhibitors from natural sources have emerged as sustainable alternatives to toxic synthetic chemicals. This review synthesizes findings from published studies on AA6061 alloys and composites, integrating evidence from Potentiodynamic Polarization (PDP), Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS), and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). Cross-study evaluations show that inhibition efficiency depends on inhibitor type and mechanism. Reports indicate that Boswellia serrata provides only moderate protection (~70%) due to weak physiosorbed films that are unstable under flow, whereas Alocasia odora achieves higher efficiency (~94% in HCl) through chemisorption with cathodic inhibition. Aerva lanata demonstrates ~88% efficiency in chloride-based fiber-metal laminates via polyphenolic adsorption, while glutathione provides ~80% protection at 0.75 mM through multisite coordination. Pectin consistently achieves the highest efficiency (~95% in mild acidic media) by forming compact polymeric films that increase charge-transfer resistance and reduce double-layer capacitance. This synthesis indicates that chemisorption-based inhibitors (e.g., pectin, Alocasia) generally outperform physisorption-based systems (e.g., Boswellia) because they form stronger and more stable films. Reported studies highlight both advantages and limitations: natural inhibitors are effective and eco-friendly, but most evaluations remain short-term and laboratory-based. Key gaps include durability testing, advanced characterization (XPS, ToF-SIMS, Raman, AFM), galvanic effects in composites, and poor hydrodynamic stability of physisorption systems. Future work should explore hybrid strategies, synergistic multi-inhibitor approaches, and validation under real-sea conditions to enable scalable and industrially viable corrosion protection.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of polyethylene (PE) and rice husk ash (RHA) composition variations on the mechanical properties of recycled composites developed as environmentally friendly ceiling materials. Composite specimens were prepared through a systematic process involving shredding PE plastic waste into 3–5 mm particles, burning rice husks at 600–700 °C followed by sieving through a 200-mesh screen, melting the plastic at 160–170 °C, and mixing with RHA at three composition ratios: 80:20, 70:30, and 60:40 (PE:RHA). The mixtures were molded into 50 × 50 mm specimens and tested in accordance with ASTM D695 for compressive properties and ASTM D792 for density. The results show that composition variation significantly influences compressive strength, elastic modulus, and strain behavior. The 80:20 composition exhibited the highest elasticity, with a compressive strength of 15.59 MPa and an elastic modulus of 463.50 MPa; however, it fractured shortly after exceeding the elastic limit. The 60:40 composition achieved the highest compressive strength of 125 MPa with a strain of 56.6%, but showed brittle behavior due to its very low elastic modulus (7.5 MPa). The 70:30 composition demonstrated the most balanced mechanical performance, with a compressive strength of 61.65 MPa, a strain of 18.20%, and stable ductile behavior. Based on the overall mechanical performance, the 70:30 PE–RHA composition is recommended as the optimal formulation, as it provides the best balance between strength, stiffness, and deformation resistance. This composition is therefore considered the most suitable for non-structural ceiling applications requiring lightweight, mechanically stable, and environmentally sustainable materials.

Abstract

Brass is widely used in industrial applications due to its excellent machinability and durability, making it well suited for CNC turning operations. Although numerous studies have investigated the optimization of turning parameters, variations in machine tools and cutting conditions often lead to differing conclusions. This study aims to optimize surface roughness in the CNC turning of Brass 36000 using the Taguchi method. An L9 orthogonal array was employed to evaluate the effects of spindle speed, feed rate, depth of cut, and coolant type. Experimental data were analyzed using signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio analysis and analysis of variance (ANOVA) to identify the most influential parameters and optimal cutting conditions. The results indicate that feed rate is the dominant factor affecting surface roughness, contributing 95.54% of the total variation, followed by spindle speed (1.88%), depth of cut (0.33%), and coolant type (0.18%). The optimal machining parameters were determined as a spindle speed of 1700 rpm, feed rate of 0.1 mm/rev, depth of cut of 1.0 mm, and the use of synthetic coolant (GT41), resulting in a minimum surface roughness of 0.67 µm. These findings demonstrate that precise control of feed rate is critical for achieving improved surface quality in CNC turning of brass.
