Abstract

LVL (Laminated-Veneer Lumber) has many advantages and economic values, which is important for wooden boat construction. The recovery of veneer, the main material of LVL, are higher than sawn-timber and their drying process are faster. LVL produced with a continuous press has been approved as an engineered material with reliable strength and stiffness. In a wooden boat processing, the easy forming into a curve shape and strength are main factor, because of the streamline shape of boats. LVL material is able to meet those requirements. As an endless-length LVL is made from a log limited-length hence LVL always contain joints. Butt joint have numerous drawbacks, but they are inherently simple and less time to manufacture than other joints types. The purposes of this experiment are to investigate the basic characteristics of LVL which are important for deck and hull planking in the wooden boat constructions. Yellow meranti and red meranti were peeled by a veneer lathe and phenol formaldehyde adhesive were used. Result of experiment indicated that at the position 0o (β), the flexibility and strength of LVL up to proportional limit increased with increasing number of layer and spacing of butt-joint (d/t). LVL at the position 45o and 90o (β), all types of LVL had lower flexibility and strength than the standard value for deck and hull planking. In bending experiment test speciment at position 45° with direction of grain, maximum width of LVL equal to the spacing of frame and at position 90° equal to the width of hull planking in wooden boat. Based on the interpretations of the above results, it can be concluded that (1). LVL of 9, 6 and 4 plies with upside (inside) veneer butt-joint is appropriate for deck and hull planking in wooden boat manufacturing, (2). LVL of 9, 6 and 4 plies with spacing of butt-joint (d/t) more than 20 is appropriate for deck and hull planking in manufacturing wooden boat.

Abstract

Biodiesel is an alkyl ester which is made from vegetable oils or animal fats. Indonesian biodiesel development is an urgent condition. The abundance of Indonesia’s natural sources is not manage well until now, such as rice bran. Rice bran oil is considered to be one of the most nutritious oils due to its favorable fatty acid composition and an unique combination of naturally occurring biologically active and antioxidant compounds. Acid catalyzed are the most suitable methods to produce biodiesel from high fatty acid rice bran oil. This present study was carried out to investigate the effects of substrate types from pure crude rice bran oil compounds on fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) formation. Experimental results shows, reaction rate of fatty acid to FAME was faster compare to triglyceride, incorporated 5%-H2O to pure triglyceride substrat didn’t increase the reaction rate. Rice bran oil high fatty acid content (15-70% FA) reached 85-98% conversion of FAME within 1 hour reaction, while oil with low fatty acid content (3-10% FA) only gives 25-75% conversion. The chain lengths, double bond, degree of saturation and chemical structure of fatty acid did not influence rate reaction of transesterification Fatty acids from different sources shows similar conversions and change in the fatty acids composition has no effect on rate of methanolysis.

Abstract

Due to the needs of improving fuel economy and reducing emissions, it is increasingly important to achieve control over robustness behavior and meet performance objectives over the life of the vehicle. This requires the development of high performance and optimal power train controllers. The performance objectives are often conflicting, or at least interrelated. One way to potentially meet these performance requirements is to introduce a method of controlling engine torque of Spark Ignition (SI) engine using Linear Quadratic Integral Tracking (LQIT) optimal control. The goal is to develop simple algorithms which can control engine torque well, thus providing fuel control more efficient and simultaneously improving engine performance due to the needs of the driver based on throttle opening information. In this case, spark ignition engine with automatic transmission simulation model is used to meet a good performance under this controller design.

Abstract

The main source of heat in the permanent magnet generator (PMG) is the total losses which f come from winding losses, core losses and rotational losses. Total heat arising from such these losses must be properly distributed and maintained so as not to exceed the maximum allowable temperature to prevent damage to insulation on the winding and demagnetization on the permanent magnet machines. In this research, we consider thermal analysis which is occurred on the radial flux PMG by using finite element method to determine the extent to which the heat generated can be properly distributed. The simulation results show that there are no points of heat concentration or hot spot. The simulation maximum temperatures of the permanent magnet and the winding are 39.1oC and 72.5oC respectively while the experimental maximum temperature of the winding is 62oC.

Abstract

The room that used to hold the speech activity needs a good acoustical quality. To determine the acoustical quality of a room the experimental research was conducted to find the relationship between the determination of acoustical absorbing materials and speech intelligibility in the “Al-Marwah” room of “Al-Akbar mosque in Surabaya. Through the monaural acoustical measurements, the objective acoustical parameters in the “Al-Marwah” room can be found from impulse responses. Then we can use it to determine the acoustical absorbing materials in the room. Considering the acoustical parameters of RT, EDT, D50, C50, and %Alcons at several positions, we can find the relationships between those parameters. The result, then, could be used to properly judge the acoustical absorbing materials which should be applied in the room. For the acoustical treatments on the ceiling of 376 m2 and the pillars of 373 m2 in the “Al-Marwah” room of the “Al-Akbar” mosque, the average values of RT and EDT un mid-band frequencies were found 5.52 sec and 7.88 sec respectively; whereas the values of D50, C50 and %Alcons were found in the range of 3.25  10.5%, -15  -9,4 dB and 15  21% respectively. Those condition produce speech intelligibility on Poor to Sufficient category.
