Journal of Engineering Researcher and Lecturer
ISSN : -     EISSN : 29637511     DOI : 10.58712/jerel
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

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.
