Abstract

FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) has emerged as one of the most popular additive manufacturing technologies in recent years, possessing the capability to produce objects with intricate designs. In this process, the object is constructed layer by layer using thermoplastic polymer materials. One notable FDM machine is the Ender-3 V2 series 3D printer. The strength and quality of the printed object are influenced by key process parameters, namely infill density, printing speed, and wall thickness. This research aims to analyze the impact of these process parameters; infill density, printing speed, and wall thickness on the tensile and compressive strength of polylactic acid (PLA) using the Taguchi Method. Standard specimens of ASTM D638 and ASTM D695, printed on the Ender-3 V2 series 3D printer, were employed. The Taguchi L4(23) orthogonal array design incorporated a combination of process parameters: infill density (50, 75) %, printing speed (30, 60) mm/s, and wall thickness (0.8, 1.2) mm, representing the quality of the printed parts. The results indicate that the compressive strength response is primarily influenced by infill density, while the tensile strength response is predominantly influenced by wall thickness. Thus, it can be concluded that lower printing speeds produce higher tensile and compressive strengths. The object density is greatly influenced by infill density and wall thickness, as confirmed by the results of microstructural examination.

Abstract

Aluminium scrap derived from automotive and industrial machinery components holds considerable potential for recycling; however, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and vocational institutions still need compact, thermally efficient melting furnaces. This study outlines the design, thermal performance analysis, and experimental assessment of a 7 kg LPG-fired aluminium melting furnace, which features a four-layer refractory lining made up of ceramic fibre paper, ceramic fibre blanket, ceramic fibre board, and LCF384A insulating castable. The furnace includes a combustion chamber with a diameter of 280 mm and a height of 320 mm, along with a steel crucible that measures 165 mm in diameter and 233 mm in height. Thermal analysis indicated that the crucible offers an effective volume of 3.49 dm³, which corresponds to a capacity of 9.44 kg of solid aluminium and 8.05–8.24 kg of molten aluminium. The multilayer refractory lining achieved an overall thermal resistance of 0.809 K/W, leading to an estimated conductive heat loss of around 1.195 kW at a furnace temperature of 1000 °C. Six melting trials were performed using aluminium scrap from pistons, engine blocks, and textile machines. The furnace successfully melted 7 kg of aluminium within a time frame of 1380–1965 seconds (23.0–32.8 minutes) while consuming between 2.0 and 3.2 kg of LPG. The combustion parameter (λ) varied from 1.02 to 1.21, indicating stable and clean combustion. Optical emission spectroscopy revealed that the recycled engine block and piston alloys had chemical compositions that were closest to those of commercial casting aluminium alloys, although additional Cu is necessary to fully meet standard specifications. The proposed furnace exhibits dependable thermal performance, minimal conductive heat loss, and stable melting characteristics, making it ideal for vocational education and small-scale aluminium casting applications.

Abstract

This study analyzes the capability of Fiber Metal Laminate (FML) composites as bulletproof vest materials using the Finite Element Method (FEM) by varying the position of the aluminum layers on the composite plate. The material consists of 25 layers with an aluminum configuration at the front, middle, and back. The project Element Method (FEM) involves varying the position of the aluminum layer on the composite plate. The material consists of 25 layers with aluminum configurations at the front, center, and rear. A 9 mm diameter projectile model was used to simulate the impact and analyze the kinetic energy reduction of the bullet. The simulation results show that the aluminum position at the front produces the fastest kinetic energy reduction and the lowest residual energy of 128.726 J, while the middle and rear positions produce 156.566 J and 129.585 J, respectively. All configurations meet the safety limits of the National Institute of Justice (NIJ) with residual energy values below 170 J. These results indicate that the position of the metal layer significantly affects impact energy absorption capacity. The combination of aluminum and composite fibers in the FML structure effectively distributes impact energy through matrix cracking, fiber fracture, and delamination mechanisms. Thus, FML composite has the potential to become an alternative material for bulletproof vests that are lightweight, strong, and efficient in protecting the body from projectile penetration.

Abstract

The structural performance of submersible pump components, particularly the casing, is influenced by its geometric configuration and the impact of fluid flow. Premature damage to submersible pump casings in mining environments is often triggered by the interaction of fluid flow with erosive solid particles. This study analyzes the effect of variations in the internal geometry of the submersible pump casing on the durability of FCD 700 cast iron materials. The method used in this study is the integration of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and Finite Element Analysis (FEA). The reverse engineering process to obtain a 3D model of the existing pump, followed by fluid flow simulations to obtain pressure distribution, and continued with structural analysis to determine the Von Mises stress and Safety Factor. Variations in geometric parameters such as bend radius (R-bend), chamfer angle (C-angle), and inlet radius (R-in) are analyzed against the distribution of pressure, stress, and particle erosion rate. CFD simulations are performed to analyze the pressure distribution resulting from internal flow conditions, which are then applied as boundary conditions in the FEA model to evaluate the resulting stress and deformation. Simulation results show that geometric changes significantly affect stress concentrations and erosion patterns in critical areas of the casing. Geometry with smoother curved transitions can reduce maximum stress and erosion potential compared to existing designs. These findings contribute to the optimization of submersible pump casing designs to increase service life and operational reliability in mining industry applications.

Abstract

The Solar PV capacity addition target in the 2025–2034 Electricity Supply Business Plan (RUPTL) is set at 17.1 GW. The Alor Power System has one of the highest solar irradiation potentials, reaching approximately 6 kWh/m²/day; however, no grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) plant has yet been deployed in the system. This study investigates the technical and economic feasibility of integrating Solar PV into the existing gas engine-based power system by utilizing the former constrained power plant site in Alor. The evaluation considers three PV penetration scenarios 15%, 20%, and 30% of daily energy demand simulated using HOMER Pro and integrated with the existing 10 MW gas engine power plant (GEPP). Unlike previous studies, this research contributes by evaluating the interaction between PV penetration, curtailment losses, and system-level LCOE to determine an economically optimal renewable penetration limit for an isolated gas-engine-dominated grid. The simulation results indicate that higher PV penetration reduces fuel consumption and operational costs of the gas engine plant but leads to significant daytime curtailment. Among the evaluated scenarios, 20% PV penetration yields the lowest LCOE at IDR 3,334/kWh, outperforming both the 15% and 30% scenarios as well as the GEPP-only base case (IDR 3,435/kWh). The findings demonstrate that a hybrid system configuration with 20% PV penetration and a 10 MW gas engine plant provides the most optimal LCOE for the Alor Power System. This configuration is therefore considered technically and economically feasible to support the national PV capacity expansion target of 17.1 GW under the 2025–2034 RUPTL.

Abstract

Analysis of Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI) and calculation of the remaining life of corroded pipes of A-106-B material is carried out based on API 571, and ASME B31.3 standards which aim to determine the operational and environmental parameters for the formation of CUI on the pipeline. The tests used include chemical composition test using Positive Material Identification type portable OES and XRF, pipe thickness testing using Ultrasonic Thickness and microscope, corrosion deposit on the pipes was tested using SEM-EDX, hardness testing using Micro Vickers Hardness Test. The results of the analysis showed that the pipe had corrosion in the Outside Diameter (OD) which was categorized as CUI. The corrosion products on the outside of the pipe surface that are formed are Fe2O3 and Fe3O4. The result of the hardness value in the specimen is influenced by the surrounding environment which causes the specimen to become harder. The calculations of the remaining life of the pipes are 2.0, 5.4 and 9.2 years for NG, CG and CH pipes respectively.

Abstract

This study develops and preliminarily characterises a low-cost multi-orientation propeller test bench for static thrust-vector measurements relevant to tilt-capable unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) propulsion research. The platform combines a servo-actuated 0-90 degree tilt mechanism, an Arduino Uno data-acquisition unit, nominal 1 kgf load-cell instrumentation with HX711 conditioning, an MPU6050 orientation sensor, RPM monitoring, and an inline electrical power meter. The prototype was evaluated using a 63.5 mm HQProp T63-6 propeller driven by an iFlight XING 1404 4600 KV motor at discrete tilt angles of 0, 30, 45, 60, and 90 degrees over several rotational-speed settings. The preliminary measurements show the expected redistribution of the propulsion-force vector in the laboratory reference frame: the horizontal component is dominant at 0 degrees, the vertical component is dominant at 90 degrees, and approximately balanced components occur near 45 degrees. Increasing rotational speed increases the measured force magnitude across the tested orientations. The present experiment is intentionally interpreted as static multi-orientation force-vector characterisation rather than a reproduction of transition-flight aerodynamics, because no external freestream was imposed. The results demonstrate the practical functionality of the rotating test-bench architecture and its suitability as a foundation for more rigorous propulsion-system characterisation.
