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 mensiang (scirpuss grossus) is a plant that grows on moist and watery land. Mensiang plants are commonly used by the society to produce mats or bags that have a strong and durable texture. This mensiang plant has fibres that can be used as reinforcement in polymer composites as a substitute for synthetic fibres. In composite manufacturing, one of the important factors in determining strength is the fraction between fibre and matrix. This study was conducted to determine the effect of different volume fractions of composites on the tensile strength of mensiang fibre reinforcement. Extraction of fibre from the stem of the mensiang plant was done manually by combing, so that the fibre was obtained. The fibres were then naturally dried by the sun for 2-3 days. The composite manufacturing process was carried out by using the hand lay-up method. Specimens and tensile testing procedures refer to the ASTM D638 standard. Several specimens were made by varying the fibre and matrix fractions. The test results showed that the 12.5% fibre volume fraction had the highest tensile strength. In this study there was no chemical treatment on the fibres before the lamination process, thus, this can be suggested for future researchers to study on the effect of chemical treatment on mensiang fibres on fibre bonding with the matrix.

Abstract

This paper investigates the use of inserted resonators in designing microstrip patch array antenna for biomedical applications, such as respiratory rate detection. The purpose of this study is to analyze size and placement of resonator, and slots which influence the overall performance. The antenna was constructed by connecting two single microstrip patch antennas (11.7mm × 15.7 mm×1.6 mm) on an FR4 substrate with a dielectric constant (????r = 4.4) to form (26 mm × 50mm × 1.6 mm). It achieves a miniaturized design of the expected resonance frequency with directional polarization, and provides good gain and bandwidth. The simulations were operated using FEKO software. The results and size of antenna were compared with references designs. The antenna was also designed for a 5-6 GHz frequency range, making it suitable for ISM band (Industrial, Medical, and Science) band range, low-power wireless applications, including Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth, as well as robotic systems, low-noise amplifier (LNA), 5 G applications, and WiFi 6E standard applications.

Abstract

The industrial world needs professionals who are able to align the needs of the market. Its intense market competition not only demands the ability to work, but also the ability to create innovative products. Therefore, higher education must prepare excellent graduates with those ability. One of the efforts is to improve the learning model by implementing Project Tasks on Students’ Regional Potential. This study belongs to pre-experimental research with a one-group pretest-posttest design, subjected to 30 students of D3 Mechanical Engineering study program. Based on the research results, it can be concluded that the students who were taught by Project Tasks on Students’ Regional Potential got significant improvement from their pre-test to post-test scores. Consequently, it can be interpreted as there was an effect of the Project Tasks treatment given to research subjects. Therefore, this model can be referred as an effective model to adapt, implemented on learning for vocational higher education.

Abstract

The performance enhancement of centrifugal pumps is continuously pursued to meet increasingly complex operational demands. Ongoing improvements in pump component design, particularly the impeller, are essential to achieving optimal configurations. The impeller is a critical component that significantly influences the overall performance of centrifugal pumps. This study aims to develop an impeller design that offers higher performance compared to the original one. The methodology utilized was Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). The primary focus was on modifying the semi-open impeller type. Two modified impellers were developed with concave and convex design. They were simulated and compared to the original impeller configuration. The simulation results indicate that pressure distribution at the inlet remains similar for all designs. However, pressure variations at the outlet and differences in volumetric flow rate between inlet and outlet were found. The contour visualization of pressure and flow velocity for each impeller configuration shown from the CFD simulation results is further discussed, in terms of pressure distribution and flow trajectory pressure.

Abstract

This article discusses Students’ Regional Potential-based Project for Vocational Education in Engineering Field as a strategy to strengthen the quality of project-based learning implementation, covering project-based learning, a project task based on potential of student’s region, the seven standard elements on a project task based on potential of student’s region, the stages of the implementation, and its effectiveness. It was driven by the existence of enormous potentials in Indonesia which have not been optimally developed. Most of universities here are located in urban areas, while most of the students come from rural regions. The previous research discloses students’ positive perceptions toward this learning implementation. It helps them develop their soft skills, fosters better engagement with the learning process, and improves their 4C skills (Critical Thinking, Communication, Collaboration, and Creativity). The approach is able to serve as a model for vocational education learning, particularly in the field of engineering. It not only provides students with the opportunity to acquire knowledge, technology, and soft skills, but also contributes to students’ regional development. This article is highly beneficial for learning implementation in Indonesia, particularly in vocational education, as well as a reference for further studies.
