Abstract

This research studied the behavior of a rigid pile driven into sandy soil and subjected to soil movement. The behavior of the pile was simulated in two cases: loaded and unloaded. The modeled piles were made of aluminum and had a diameter (D) of 10 mm. Embankment loads were applied at three different distances from the face of the pile (2.5, 5, and 10) D. Strain gauges were fixed at four points along the pile shaft using a half-bridge configuration to measure the strains resulted from the lateral movement of the soil. The results obtained from the physical model were the lateral and vertical movements at the surface of the soil and the bending strain along the pile shaft. These results were analyzed numerically to calculate the bending moment, pile rotation, pile deflection, shear force, and soil reaction profiles. Some of these results were measured experimentally and others were calculated theoretically based on the measured strains. The maximum deflection of the axially loaded pile was more than that in the unloaded pile by 26%, 108%, and 159%, with the embankment at distances (2.5, 5, and 10) D, respectively. The rigid pile provided more resistance to the pressure generated from the soil movement.

Abstract

The contact stiffness between brake disc and brake pads is a vital parameter that affects brake NVH performance through increasing the system stiffness and modal frequencies. In order to establish accurate contact behavior between brake parts for further research on precise modeling of disc brakes, a method of identifying the normal contact stiffness of a floating caliper disc brake was developed in this study based on modal frequency testing and finite element analysis. The results showed that contact stiffness increases with brake pressure due to compression of the friction material and increases with the disc mode order at lower-order modes but almost stays invariant at higher-order ones due to contact area variation.

Abstract

Because of the burgeoning urban population, there is huge pressure on both natural resources and basic urban infrastructure, especially sewerage systems, with Indonesia as no exception. It is estimated that about 95% of human waste in Indonesia ends up untreated or partially treated in septic tanks before being discharged in the natural environment, contaminating the living environment as well as adversely affecting human health and economic development. This study conducted a comprehensive investigation on septage management in Bandung City, Indonesia, to gain a better understanding of the challenges and opportunities for improved performance of on-site sanitation systems as well as septage management across its sanitation service chain. The results showed that the following issues are the main reasons behind poor sanitation in Bandung city: a) poor design and construction of septic tanks with no or only partial lining, resulting in leaking (>90% of septic tanks are malfunctioning); b) irregular desludging, i.e. about 2/3 of population desludge their septic tanks only once in more than 5 years; c) lack of proper guidelines and awareness about the benefits of regular monitoring and operation of septic tanks; d) lack of good sanitation service providers; and e) lack of funds for building sufficient capacity of septage treatment plants.

Abstract

Several studies have proven the efficiency of gasification as a thermal process in terms of material decomposition and chemical energy. Synthetic gas (syngas) is a gasification product that can be used as an energy source. However, it needs to undergo treatment to remove the tar content, which could cause several issues in the combustion system. Tar removal can be conducted through biomass filters. In this study, three types of filters were investigated: biochar, rice straw, and rice husk filters. Three thicknesses of the porous media (30, 40, and 50 cm) were investigated. The results revealed that porous media thickness significantly affects tar removal efficiency, as the efficiency was found to increase with the thickness. Biochar was proven to be the best filter media among the three types, with a tar removal efficiency of 59.45% at a thickness of 50 cm.

Abstract

Ultrasound-guided needle insertion has become standard in medical interventional procedures. Regardless of its advantages, it still has crucial problems related to needle visibility. Some technical factors affect the visibility with non-linear characteristic, i.e. frequency, insertion angle and depth. Here, backscattered signal parameters from measurement were compared to a simulation of a resonance scattering model. Raw radio frequency (RF) data were reconstructed with a new method to represent unique information on total backpropagation from the needle, which consists of non-resonance and resonance scattering components. The result suggests that reconstruction of the needle in B-mode images should be derived from the maximum power spectral density and the energy spectral density to optimize the contrast of the needle. In measurements with the center frequency at 1.87 MHz, the effect of resonance scattering on the total backpropagation around critical angles could be observed more clearly with this method than with standard reconstruction based on the signal envelope. The simulation showed that the fractional bandwidth of the spectrum of the backscattered pressure field centered at 1.87 MHz was relatively optimal at 40% to 100%. So that the simulation of the resonance scattering model can be used to predict the backscattered response from the needle, it must be able to confirm it to the real conditions of RF data with random characteristics. Therefore, extraction of the backscattered pressure field in a simulation with fractional bandwidth should be a concern.

Abstract

In this work, chemical precipitation-ultrafiltration (UF) was applied for waste brine regeneration from a steam flooding plant at Duri Field, Chevron. A mixture of sodium hydroxide and sodium carbonate solution was used as chemical agent. A polypropylene (PP) UF membrane was used to remove precipitate formed in the chemical precipitation. It was found that the combined process could be used to regenerate waste brine, removing up to 100% (±0.1) of calcium and up to 99.6% (±0.3) of magnesium. High hardness removal was achieved when the chemical dosage was 1.3 to 1.7 mole of chemical/mole of hardness. Rapid permeability decline was observed in the UF membrane due to the high turbidity and TSS values of the chemically treated waste brine. Backwash with an acid solution could recover the UF membrane's permeability effectively. However, pH adjustment is needed due to the high pH value of the UF permeate (up to ~12).

Abstract

Microplastics (MPs) are distributed globally, including in aquatic environments. While a large number of studies on MPs in marine environments have been performed, few studies are available in freshwater environments. Therefore, the distribution of MPs in surface water and sediment from the Chao Phraya River at Tha Prachan, a high population density area of Bangkok, was investigated. Water samples were collected by a manta trawl with a net mesh size of 300 mm. Sediment samples were collected by a Van Veen grab sampler. The total number and concentration of MPs in the water samples were found to be 104 particles/m3 and 805.20 mg/m3, respectively. The dominant MPs were fragments, 0.5 to 1.0 mm in size, for the water samples. In the sediment, MPs were detected only in a size range of 0.053 to 0.5 mm with a total number and concentration of 2,290 particles/kg and 650 mg/kg, respectively. The presence of different types of MPs was confirmed by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy with a dominant abundance of polypropylene, polyethylene, and polystyrene. In brief, this study suggests that high levels of MPs occur not only in the water but also in the sediment of the Chao Phraya River at Tha Prachan area.

Abstract

A series of four catalysts, i.e. ZSM-5 (Si/Al = 25) (Z1), a combination of ZSM-5 (Si/Al = 25) and zeolite Y (Si/Al = 25) (Z2), zeolite Y (Si/Al = 25) (Z3), and ZSM-5 (Si/Al = 80) (Z4), was successfully prepared for catalytic cracking of palm oil. All three catalysts utilized silica as a binder without other additional components. Catalytic cracking tests showed that the aromatic distribution was very high, according to the following order: Z4 (98%) > Z1 (90%) > Z2 (84%) > Z3 (60%). It was shown that ZSM-5 promotes the formation of aromatics better than zeolite Y does. From 98% of aromatics products in Z1, 71% were benzene, toluene, and xylene (BTX). It appears that the formation of aromatics needs milder acidity since a higher number of acids extends the cracking reaction, resulting in the formation of more gaseous and heavy aromatics products. The results of this study show potential for the sustainable production of bio-hydrocarbons with exceptional aromatic distributions, which may fulfill the demands of the petroleum, petrochemical, and fine chemical sectors.

Abstract

Mixed reality is the outcome of blending the physical world with the digital world, made possible by technological advancement. Mixed reality is the next evolution in human, computer, and environment interaction. Augmented reality (AR) uses a virtual model of the real world, augmented by using a computer to see the real environment through a special display device. Current education and training systems in the engineering maintenance field are still insufficiently directed at the psychomotor skills in learning about machine parts, which makes them less effective for trainees. The oil and gas industry always face problems related to inefficiency due to downtime of critical equipment. This study was conducted at designing and developing a virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) system as a learning and training platform. This work also reviewed AR applications for machine part maintenance and assembly. An AR system was modelled and developed using the following software: CATIA, Blender, Unity and Vuforia. The effectiveness of using the AR technique in an education and training process was evaluated with 20 respondents among university students. The results showed that using this AR app enhanced the participant's understanding according to certain criteria and can be adopted as a learning method.
