Abstract

The development of composite materials is increasingly widespread, which require superior mechanical properties. From many studies, it is found that the mechanical properties of composite materials are influenced by various factors, including the reinforcement content, both in the form of fibers and particle powder. However, those studies have not investigated the effect of the hardener weight fraction on the mechanical properties of resin composite materials. Even though its function as a hardener is likely to affect its mechanical properties, it might obtain the optimum composition of the reinforcing content and hardener fraction to get the specific mechanical properties. This study examines the effect of hardener weight fraction combined with fiber powder content on mechanical properties of EPR-174 epoxy resin matrix composite and determines the optimum of Them. The research was conducted by testing a sample of composite matrix resin material reinforced with coconut fiber powder. The Powder content was made in 3 levels, i.e.: 6%, 8%, and 10%. While the hardener fraction of resin was made in 3 levels, i.e.: 0.4, 0.5, and 0.6. The test results showed that pure resin had the lowest impact strength of 1.37 kJ/m2. The specimen with a fiber powder content of 6% has the highest impact strength i.e.: 4.92 kJ/m2. The hardener fraction of 0.5 has the highest impact strength i.e.: 4.55 kJ/m2. The fiber powder content of 8% produced the highest shear strength i.e.: 1.00 MPa. Meanwhile, the hardener fraction of 0.6 has the highest shear strength i.e.: 2.03 MPa.

Abstract

Infrastructure development of the freight transport system has a vital position in accelerating Indonesian economic growth. This study aims to analyze one of the dominant characteristics of freight transportation, namely freight transportation costs in South Sulawesi Province. A questionnaire-based interview survey of operators was conducted to determine operator characteristics, vehicle characteristics, trip characteristics, and commodity characteristics. They are analyzing data using a descriptive statistical approach, building a cost and distance relationship model using a regression model approach while analyzing the priority of freight transport selection using an Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP). An AHP is a decision-making model with multiple criteria. The analysis shows that the high costs are the component costs of the operator’s salary, fuel costs, and vehicle maintenance costs. Operating cost modelling provides a good level of models, both in terms of modes and commodities transported. In contrast, the travel time model based on modes and types of commodities shows inefficient. Based on the results, the pickup mode is optimal in cost and travel time with a weight of 39.8% and 50.3%. Trucks 3-4-5 Axles are the optimal mode of transportation when viewed in terms of distance (58.8%) and transportation volume (65.5%). In contrast, the two Axles Truck has characteristics between Pickups and 3-4-5 Axles Trucks. This result is better developed for a more comprehensive model of the cost of freight transport in South Sulawesi Province, Indonesia.

Abstract

The role of the Supply Chain affects the value of domestic products that arise in an area is not the same as the income received by residents of the area. It can be seen that the staple products sector dominates 61.55% of the distribution of products in Central Java. So, this is an important factor in measuring the Supply Operations Chain that occurs in these commodities. The high costs incurred in this sector encourage us to continue to improve our operational performance to reduce costs as low as possible. The condition is what the public/consumers want so that the gap between production costs and distribution costs of existing products is not too far away. This study aims to measure consumer satisfaction with the Supply Chain in the area and optimize the Supply Chain model that can be done to improve operational processes in the upstream (supplier) and downstream (distribution channels) of the Supply Chain in Central Java. The data analysis method used is the Supply Chain Operation Reference (SCOR). This model serves to weigh the importance of measuring customer satisfaction with the Supply Chain in the area, and efforts to improve operational performance can be made by minimizing failure in the process so that delivery to consumers is on time. The results of the SCOR model show that Asset, Agility, and Cost are variables that must be improved in the logistics process in Central Java.

Abstract

Optimization of the controller in a generator can improve system performance. The right parameter optimization is needed to get the optimal performance from the controller. The application of the artificial intelligence method as a parameter optimization method is proposed in this study. By using the smart method based on Ant Colony, the optimal PSS-PID parameters are obtained. With optimal tuning, the system gets optimal Single Machine Infinite Bus (SMIB) system frequency and rotor angle response, indicated by the minimum overshot system response. The SMIB system's stability will be tested. A case study of adding and reducing loads is used, with the proposed control method PSS-PID being optimized using Ant Colony. Based on the analysis using the proposed PSS-PID control, we get the minimum overshoot for the frequency response and rotor angle of the SMIB system. When the load changes at 20 seconds, using the PSS-PID control scheme, the minimum overshoot is -4.316e-06 to 7.598e-05 pu with a settling time of 22.01s. For the rotor angle overshoot response, using the PSS-PID control scheme, the minimum overshoot is -0.01113 to -0.009669 pu with a settling time of 22.36s.

Abstract

Good ride performance is one of the most important key attributes of a passenger vehicle. One of the methods to achieve this is by using Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT). This is because a CVT can provide an almost infinite ratio within its limits smoothly and continuously. The flexibility of a CVT allows the driving shaft to maintain a constant angular velocity over a range of output velocities. New developments in gear reduction and manufacturing have led to ever more robust CVTs, allowing them to be applied in more diverse automotive applications. As CVT development continues, costs will be reduced further, and the performance will continue to improve, making further development and application of the CVT technology desirable. This cycle of improvement will offer CVT a solid foundation in the world's automotive infrastructure. This paper aims to provide some background and relevant information that is necessary for this study. Specifically, a brief description of CVT, advantages and their brief history is presented. This paper also evaluates the current state of CVT, investigate the technology frontline of drivetrain control and the development of CVT. The stepless transmission is able to maintain the engine running at its maximum power.

Abstract

It is important to maintain every machine affecting the process of making sugar to ensure excellent product quality with minimal losses and to accelerate productivity and profitability targets. The centrifuges are widely used in industry today with some being very difficult and critical for surgery, and the collapse of the engine has the ability to cause expensive damage. One of these is the centrifugal machines, and they are expected to be efficient to produce high-quality sugar. Meanwhile, an efficient diagnostic tool to predict the correct time for centrifugal repair is vibration signal analysis namely by attaching the accelerometer sensor to the location of the centrifugal bearing to produce vibration data that is ready to be analyzed. Still, the process requires sufficient insight and experience. The manual method usually used is complicated and requires a lot of time to obtain results of a centrifugal diagnosis. Therefore, this study was conducted to design an intelligent system to diagnose centrifugal vibrations using Artificial Neural Networks (ANN). The situation is involved in applying and training the concept of vibration analysis from spectrum data to ANN to produce diagnostic results according to the spectrum diagnosis reference. The results obtained were quite good with the largest cross-entropy value of 10.67 having 0% error value with the largest Mean Square Error value being 0.0023 while the smallest regression was 0.993. The test conducted on nine new spectrums produced eight true predictions and one false. The system can provide fairly accurate results in a short time. Classification quality improvement can be made by adding training data.

Abstract

Discharge Manifold Equipment (DME) is an output pipe from a pump that bears an essential role in a piping system in offshore oil drilling, so it is a must to assure good bears condition whenever used. It is not an easy thing because DME is a significant and heavy component. Also, unfavourable conditions of offshore climate can accelerate its corrosion. Storage with the modular rack uses an offshore container certified DNV 2.7-1 / EN 12079 will be designed to fulfil those needs. The storage has an important role as an element in inventory, both the storage system for assembly parts or maintenance spare parts. This storage will be design using 4 (four) phases from VDI 2221 methods, namely; task clarification, conceptual design, embodiment design, and detailed design. Hydraulic power will be added to the system to support the piston movement so that the storage rack can be moved automatically by the hydraulic system. This storage has given the best solution for a systematic storing DME in the piping system of offshore oil drilling.

Abstract

The increased availability of reliable and efficient energy services stimulates new development alternatives. This article discusses the potential for such integrated systems in the stationary and portable power market in response to the critical need for cleaner energy technology. Several issues relating to renewable energies, environment, and sustainable development are examined from both current and future perspectives throughout the theme. It is concluded that green energies like wind, solar, ground source heat pumps, and biomass must be promoted, implemented, and demonstrated from the economic and/or environmental point of view. Biogas from biomass appears to have potential as an alternative energy source, potentially rich in biomass resources. The current literature is reviewed regarding the ecological, social, cultural and economic impacts of biogas technology. Finally, this article gives an overview of the present and future use of biomass as an industrial feedstock to produce fuels, chemicals and other materials. However, to be truly competitive in an open market situation, higher-value products are required. Results suggest that biogas technology must be encouraged, promoted, invested, implemented, and demonstrated, especially in remote rural areas. Anticipated future energy use patterns and consequent environmental impacts (acid precipitation, ozone depletion, greenhouse effect, or global warming) are discussed in this article. An approach is needed to integrate renewable energies in a way to meet high building performance. However, their ability to match demand is determined by adoption of one of the following two approaches: the utilisation of a capture area greater than that occupied by the community to be supplied, or the reduction of the community’s energy demands to a level commensurate with the locally available renewable resources. Adopting green or sustainable approaches to how society is run is seen as an important strategy in finding a solution to the energy problem. The key factors to reducing and controlling CO2, which is the major contributor to global warming, are the use of alternative approaches to energy generation and the exploration of how these alternatives are used today and may be used in the future as green energy sources.

Abstract

The Jakarta regulation for waste cooking oil (WCO) shows the desired WCO to Biodiesel supply chain through the DKI Jakarta Governor Regulation Number 167 the Year 2016. Still, the implementation of said regulation proved inefficient. The study aims to analyze the risks in the supply chain because the WCO to Biodiesel supply chain is vulnerable to different risks than the typical supply chain and the green supply chain. The method used in this research is the group analytical hierarchy process (G-AHP) approach to create a consensus model between actors of the supply chain. Deep interviews were conducted with six experts to identify the risks and the normal scale was used to quantify their preference. Then, the PriEst software assisted the risk weight calculation, AHP matrix validation, and consensus modelling. The findings show the supply chain is vulnerable to 23 risks, categorized into six risk categories. The three risks that cause the most uncertainties in the supply chain are supply chain design risk, key supplier risk, and financial source risk. Technology risks and asset failure risks are the least concern because most WCO conversion is not done in Indonesia. These findings would be useful for the government to focus its effort on the most critical risks.

Abstract

Bearing is an essential component in a mechanical rotating equipment system. It is no less important than lubrication to prevent wear is very important to consider in the mechanical maintenance system of rotating equipment. Bearing wear is one of the problems in wind turbines that will increase maintenance costs, shorten the wind turbines' lifespan, and cause the component or overall damage to the wind turbine. The latest technology has provided instruments for analyzing the damage of elements in a bearing according to the caused vibrations. Therefore, this study was performed on Ball Bearing Turbine Propeller to identify the dynamic characteristics of Ball Bearing with and without lubrication. The test was carried out using the Bump Test method applied in three measured parts: X, Y, and Z axes. The measuring instrument which was used was Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) Analyzer (Ono Sokki) and the data were analyzed using MATLAB. It was identified that the application of oil could reduce the amplitude and decrease the frequency. Personal frequency appearing more than once indicates the existence of global vibration modes. The frequency which only appears once in the measurement spot indicates local vibration modes. The highest frequency both after and before the application of oil was found in the Y-axis.
