The Journal of Engineering Researcher and Lecturer is dedicated as a forum for researchers and lecturers around the world to report the research results. All papers are peer-reviewed by at least two referees. The scope includes technological and learning innovation in engineering (miscellaneous). Technological innovation must be carried out continuously for a better life. However, its sustainability is inseparable from human resources. Thus, manuscripts on learning innovation are expected to be a reference in decision-making for a policy on engineering education, resulting in superior students in a sustainable manner. Technological innovations are expected to be a learning reference and can be mastered by students for sustainable human resource development.

Abstract

This research explores the implementation of experiential learning to improve students' understanding and skills in mechanical drawing using CAD software. We used this approach to identify challenges in learning mechanical engineering, including lack of time to learn CAD, suboptimal mechanical drawing skills, and limitations in producing details of mechanical components. Through a quasi-experiment with experimental and control classes, we measured the impact of the experiential learning method on improving conceptual understanding and practical skills in mechanical drawing. The results show that this approach is effective in improving students' understanding of detailed drawings and practical skills. The implementation of Experiential Learning also improved students' cognitive learning outcomes and psychomotor skills in mechanical drawing. The findings highlight the importance of adaptive and technological approaches to engineering education that are aligned with modern industry needs.

Abstract

The frame is an important part of the motorcycle as it carries the load of the passenger. Therefore, it is necessary to design a frame that can withstand the load and is lightweight. A lighter motorcycle will reduce the power required to ride it. This research aims to redesign the frame of a trail-type ELGO electric motorbike by considering a reduction in frame weight. The research was carried out using finite element analysis. The data from the analysis were checked based on the maximum stress not exceeding the yield strength of the DIN 1.0030 material and the safety factor greater than 1. The results showed that the newly designed frame has a lighter weight, with a maximum stress less than the yield strength of the DIN 1.0030 material and a safety factor value greater than 1. The simulation results also indicate the potential for further research by showing the maximum and minimum stress areas on the frame.

Abstract

This qualitative study focuses on occupational safety and health in vocational school machining workshops to identify significant risks related to training practices. Workplace accidents are considered a serious threat to workers and equipment, potentially affecting productivity and environmental safety. Observations at several vocational schools, especially at SMK Negeri 1 Batipuh, showed low student awareness and compliance with OHS regulations, increasing the risk of risky behaviour and accidents. To address this, the research used the Hazard Identification, Risk Assessment, and Risk Control (HIRARC) method, which systematically identifies hazards, evaluates risks based on severity and likelihood, and proposes control measures. The research at SMK Negeri 1 Batipuh involved direct observation, interviews, and analysis of SOPs in the workshop, finding significant risk variations in workshop conditions, lathe operations, welding, material handling, hand tool use, and machine protection. The results highlighted the predominance of intermediate risks in all-hazards analyzed, emphasizing the importance of developing more effective risk management strategies. This research aims to reduce accidents and improve student safety during training by addressing existing OHS implementation gaps and implementing appropriate risk controls. In addition to filling a gap in the literature, this study provides practical insights for improving OHS practices in vocational schools.

Abstract

Education has a central role in preparing individuals for the complexities of the modern world of work. Particularly in the context of education in Vocational High Schools, developing students' competencies in collaboration, creativity, and problem-solving is essential. This study explores the effectiveness of the case-based learning method in improving students' understanding of industrial mechanics. The study used a quasi-experiment design with control and experimental groups. The statistical analysis results showed that the case method was more effective in improving students' cognitive mastery than the conventional lecture method. Students who participated in case method learning showed significant improvement in the post-intervention test, demonstrating the superiority of this method in supporting a more effective learning process and preparing students for practical challenges in the field. In conclusion, the case method increases students' participation and interactivity in the learning process and deepens their understanding of technical concepts in industrial mechanics. This research provides a solid basis for implementing more effective and relevant learning methods in preparing vocational students for the increasingly complex needs of the world of work.

Abstract

The front body design of the railway crane is flat or bluff type. The design causes a large drag, so the railway crane requires high fuel consumption to drive. Therefore, this study aims to modify the front body of the railway crane by applying the shape of the leading edge to reduce drag. This research also investigates the effect of leading-edge angles on aerodynamic characteristics. The method used is computational fluid dynamics, using the flow simulation feature of the Solidworks research licence software. This study considered three variations of leading edge angle (40°, 45° and 50°). The simulation results show that the larger the leading edge angle, the lower the drag coefficient value. In addition, the simulation shows that there is a high air pressure at the front of the railway crane with the bluff shape, while the modified railway crane with the leading edge applied has a lower air pressure at the front. Furthermore, the results and discussion in this article present the simulation results showing the velocity streamline and pressure contour of each model.

Abstract

This paper investigates the response of infilled frames associated with inter-story drift ratio considering the central and eccentric window opening under the in-plane force. The behavior of the structure was studied by experimental and numerical approach. Experimental results show that the lateral load capacity in eccentric window frame (EW) is 1.17 times of central window frame (CW due to interruption of diagonal loaded action by the central opening. The elastic condition of CW frame and EW frame is obtained at lateral drift of 0.2% and 0.4% respectively. As a result of weak mortar interaction, the diagonal action of crack distribution emerges along the corner of the panel in testing A numerical simulation was performed and validated with experimental results. As the comparison of results, the elastic limit points coincide between the two approaches of numerical and experimental. However, the slightly difference occurs at the peak point. The similarity can be seen in the range of 80% to 100% in the value of peak load and displacement at peak load. The numerical investigation revealed that the highest stress distribution occurred along the diagonal axis, aligning with the results of the experimental investigation.
