Abstract

Flame stability, environmental changes and fossil fuel shortage represent major challenges to any successful combustion device utilization. In this study, the stability zone of laminar premixed ILPG/ -air flames was investigated experimentally. Non-swirling burners with different diameters (10, 12.5, and 17 mm) were employed to characterize the flashback and blow-off limits. Different hydrogen blends (0%-50%) at equivalence ratios (ER) (0.6-1.4) were used. The results show that maximum flashback limits occurred at ER slightly richer than stoichiometric, with the mixture flow rate at a flashback of (3.75, 7.25 and 14) LPM for the 50% hydrogen blending ratio and a burner diameter of (10, 12.5 and 17 mm), respectively. When hydrogen blending was 50% at stoichiometric condition, the critical velocity gradient at flashback increased from (469.9-650.8 1/s) with 10 mm diameter, and the critical velocity gradient at blow-off increased from (1538-2936 1/s). It was observed that the flashback limits decreased with increasing burner diameter. Its limit increased with increasing hydrogen addition to the ILPG. The blow-off limit increased with increasing fuel concentration. This paper further presents the stability zone for ILPG/air combustion for a non-swirling burner with a 10-mm diameter and different hydrogen blends. It was found that the stability zone was narrow on the lean combustion side and enhanced with increasing diameter and hydrogen addition.

Abstract

The stability of an embankment is generally influenced by a number of factors, such as deformation, fractures, overtopping, seepage, etc. Fractures and seepage are commonly found in the LUSI (Sidoarjo mud flow) embankment. In this study, analysis of self-potential (SP) data was applied to identify fractures and seepage in the LUSI embankment. Noise-Assisted Multivariate Empirical Mode Decomposition (NA-MEMD) and Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT) were applied to determine the location of seepage and fractures in the subsurface based on SP data. The results were correlated with the 2D direct current resistivity (DCR) method, which showed that both methods worked well and were compatible in detecting and localizing fracture and seepage in the LUSI embankment.

Abstract

In this work, a modified solver from the OpenFOAM 4.1 software was used to study the fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics over a forward facing step (FFS) considering various turbulence models, viz., k-ε, k-ω, k-ω SST and v2-f. Numerical computations were performed using a newly developed transient solver, pisoTempFoam. Modeling and meshing of the geometry and setting of the boundary conditions were done with OpenFOAM. The bottom (upstream, step and downstream) walls were heated at a constant temperature of 350K, while the fluid inlet temperature was 298K. The simulation results were compared with those available in the literature. Variation of skin friction coefficient (Cf), coefficient of pressure (Cp), and Nusselt number (Nu) for different Reynolds numbers (Re), contraction ratios (CR) and different fluids are presented. This article also presents information about recirculation bubbles in the upstream and downstream regions of the FFS. The results show that the combined effect of turbulence models and parameters, such as CR, Re and Pr, change the flow and heat transfer characteristics of the FFS. The present CFD simulation plays a pivotal role in the analysis of flow over airfoils at a large angle of attack in heat exchangers and pipes whose area suddenly changes.

Abstract

The high-strength Mg-9Al-1Zn alloy has been extensively investigated due to its potential application as a structural material in the automotive industry. The main challenges for its use are the low creep and corrosion resistance. In this work, heat treatment at 415 °C for 2 h was conducted on as-cast Mg-9Al-1Zn to improve its creep resistance. The corrosion behavior of the alloy was studied by the electrochemical method in an NaCl solution. The creep test results under 66.5 MPa load at 200 °C indicated one order of magnitude higher creep resistance of the heat-treated alloy relative to the as-cast one. The heat-treated specimen was ruptured after 6.5 h while the as-cast one was ruptured within 0.6 h. Creep occurred locally following the β phase in the alloy as evident from the cavities observed after the test. Reduction in the density of the discontinuous β precipitates resulting from heat treatment of the alloy lowered the susceptibility to creep. The smaller volume fraction of β precipitates suppressed the cathodic reaction during the polarization test and raised the electrochemical impedance spectra during the EIS test. The heat treatment improved not only the creep resistance but also the corrosion resistance of the Mg-9Al-1Zn alloy.

Abstract

In recent years there have been several occasions of failure of non-buildings such as billboard towers and pedestrian bridges around high-rise areas in urban Indonesia. Most cases did not occur during any particular high-speed wind gusts but rather during normal wind speed. This research aimed to show the increase in wind load for structures built between high-rise buildings. A simplified cluster of 4 symmetrical high-rise building was investigated. The study used a wind tunnel and a Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) device in the experiment. Several angles of attack and also different distances between buildings were investigated to see the impact of these parameters on the wind flow between the buildings. Wind flow experiences an interaction flow in all central areas, which translates into an increase in speed. The change in distance between buildings changes the behavior of the flow in the cross area while a change in the angle of attack of the wind does not influence the amplification factor. The results show that there was an increase from 7 to 44% in wind speed due to the street canyons and that the highest amplification occurred with an angle of attack of 0°.

Abstract

A sound reduction index (RIc) is a laboratory measurement of the sound insulating properties of a material or building element, commonly conducted using a reverberation chamber and an anechoic chamber (SIC), which requires high expenses. This study aimed to perform RIc analysis using a sound reduction box (SRB) to assess the accuracy and precision of the associated result compared to an SIC. The SRB is a miniature reverberation chamber innovation that is owned by the Center for Research and Development of Quality and Environmental Laboratory (P3KLL). The anechoic chamber is substituted by open space as free-field environment. The methods used in this study are based on ISO 15186-1 and ISO 717-1. Measurement was executed using a sound intensity analyzer and data interpretation was done by employing statistical analysis. The types of insulating materials tested were wood boards made of Shorea sp., Swietenia sp. and Dryobalanops sp. with a thickness of 2 cm and 4 cm. Test material measurement was done using the same measuring instruments, sound generators, sound amplifiers, and personnel. The results show that the RIc values were almost the same for both methods (SIC and SRB). When the weighted sound reduction index (Rw) rating calculated from the RIc was compared between the SIC and the SRB, the results were not statistically different. It is interesting that an SRB can be developed in the future as an alternative device for acoustic materials testing.

Abstract

A real-time novel algorithm for proportional, integral and derivative (PID) controller tuning for quadcopters is introduced. The particle swarm optimization (PSO) method is utilized to search the quadcopter solution space to find the best PID controller parameters. A fuzzy logic (FL) controller is used to provide proper velocity reference signals to serve as tracking set points to be achieved by the PID controller. This nested loop design is proposed for stabilizing the quadcopter, where the fuzzy logic controller (FL) is used in the stable loop (i.e. outer loop) to control the desired angle, while the PID controller is used for the rate loop (i.e. inner loop). Finally, the optimum generated PID parameters were achieved in real time using the PSO search algorithm. The generated parameters were tested successfully using an experimental quadcopter setup at the University of Jordan.

Abstract

Mataram is the capital of West Nusa Tenggara. West Nusa Tenggara is made up of two islands, Lombok and Sumbawa. The 2018 earthquake on Lombok undoubtedly affected spectral acceleration. This is an important factor to be addressed in structural design. Short-period spectral acceleration, SS,increases 18.323% compared to the value listed in seismic code SNI 1976:2012, corresponding to a 2500-year return period. However, even if the SS value increases, the design category of the building does not change and remains in the D category. In general, the acceleration value in this study was found to be relatively greater than that of the existing code for periods of less than 0.462 s for site class D and in periods of less than 0.830 s in site class E. In addition, the seismic response coefficient, CS, for medium soil increases by 10.782% compared to the CS calculated using of the current code. This effect is more severe in soft soil areas, where the increase reaches 13.168%. Improving existing codes with seismic design parameters for new buildings affected by the ground motion of recent strong earthquakes will lead to more preparedness and will be an important part of local disaster risk reduction.

Abstract

The inclined crack problem in bonded dissimilar materials was considered in this study. The system of hypersingular integral equations (HSIEs) was formulated using the modified complex potentials (MCP) function method, where the continuity conditions of the resultant force and the displacement are applied. In the equations, the crack opening displacement (COD) serves as the unknown function and the traction along the cracks as the right-hand terms. By applying the curved length coordinate method and the appropriate quadrature formulas, the HSIEs are reduced to the system of linear equations. It was found that the nondimensional stress intensity factors (SIF) at the crack tips depend on the ratio of elastic constants, the crack geometries and the distance between the crack and the boundary.

Abstract

Biodegradable polymers such as polylactic acid (PLA) are used nowadays due to their degradability, durability and environmentally friendly properties. Alkaline surface treatment of natural fibres is used to increase the flexural properties of composites. This research investigated the flexural properties of dry compressed PLA, wet mix PLA, untreated flax/PLA and treated flax/PLA composites. The flax fibre was first treated with NaOH. The wet mix PLA was prepared via solvent casting with chloroform and dried at room temperature overnight followed by post-drying in an oven. The flax/PLA composites were fabricated using a hot press for 6 minutes. The wet mix PLA showed higher flexural strength compared to the dry compressed PLA. The treated flax fibre composite showed higher flexural strength compared to the untreated flax fibre. The flexural strength and elongation at break of the treated flax fibre composite was increased by 4.79% and 27.76%, respectively, while the flexural modulus decreased by 0.79% compared with the untreated flax composite. The treated flax composite also showed an improvement in impact properties, increasing its impact strength by about 3% and 10% at energy levels of 10 J, 15 J, and 17.5 J compared with the untreated flax fibre. Therefore, the investigation of the surface treatment of flax in a PLA matrix based on its mechanical properties revealed better properties compared to untreated flax/PLA composite.
