Abstract

The goal of this work was to explore the influence of toilet siphon pipe shape on flushing performance. The flushing processes of a toilet under different shape parameters were simulated by using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) with a volume of fluid (VOF) multiphase model. The effects of siphon pipe shape on flushing performance were analyzed in detail. The interpretation of the simulation results was experimentally validated. The results reveal that a toilet may obtain good flushing performance under one single shape parameter when the climbing angle, the arc width, the arc height, the pipe diameter, the climbing width, and the climbing height are about 48°, 45 mm, 210 mm, 50 mm, 90 mm and 30 mm, respectively. With the increase of the siphon pipe diameter, the toilet flushing performance peaks in the range between 50 and 53 mm rather than continuing to improve. In order to reasonably evaluate the flushing effect of the toilet, all flow parameters on a characteristic cross section of the siphon pipe, including the average velocity, the average pressure and the average mass flow rate, should be comprehensively considered instead of one single parameter. The findings of this study provide a reference for the pipe shape design of toilets.

Abstract

The present research envisaged the performance analysis of a 1-mm thick 6061-T6 aluminum alloy sheet welded by the friction stir welding technique, using optical microscopy, micro-hardness measurement, a tensile test, a friction and wear test, and a salt spray corrosion test. It was found that the grain in the welded zone obtained was refined under each parameter. When the rotating speed of the tool was 15,000 rpm and the traveling speed of the tool was 300 mm·min-1, the tensile strength of the welded zone was highest, i.e. 74.8% of the base metal. Furthermore, the hardness distribution curve of the welded zone was of the 'W' type under each parameter, but the hardness value was lower than that of the base metal. The friction coefficient of the welded zone was lower than that of the base metal under each parameter, and the wear form was found to be mainly adhesive wear accompanied by abrasive wear. The welded zone and the base metal were subjected to salt spray corrosion after 12 hours under each parameter, which had a negative effect on the quality. However, after 12 hours of subsequent corrosion, the quality of each sample and the base material was not obvious.

Abstract

Due to the limited amount of space in urban homes, the trend of indoor gardening is growing as it is the most suitable gardening method in the specified environment; moreover, it provides the possibility of growing organic vegetables at home. This paper presents the design and construction of an urban indoor gardening system for growing organic vegetables, with automated functions. LEDs in the spectra of R (637 nm) B (455 nm) and white (3500 K) were applied as horticultural light and were designed using the horticulture lighting calculation tool. The automated irrigation system was controlled by Arduino-based soil moisture sensors. The urban indoor gardener prototype had a cultivation bed of 0.385 m2. The results showed that the LED panel could emit a photosynthetic photon flux density of around 200 ± 7 µmol m-2s-1 with an R to B ratio of 0.7 ± 0.04, and a photoperiod of 16 h per day. The soil moisture control system is automatic and can regulate the soil moisture to the appropriate percentage for agricultural use, which is 50% to 69%. Consequently, it is able to save water and provide an alternative method for efficient water use. The urban indoor gardening system is compact and can be placed in a small indoor corner. The presented system was able to produce organic green-oak lettuce with a weight of 1272.54 g/crop in a restricted area, providing an ease-of-use experience and requiring very little maintenance.

Abstract

In this study, the inelastic cyclic behavior of hybrid connections consisting of reinforced concrete column and steel beams (RCS) was investigated. The experimental results from the lateral load testing of four interior RCS subassembly connections are presented. The first specimen was designed based on the ASCE Guidelines 1994, with connection details based on the study of Liang and Parra-Montesinos (2004), while another specimen was a proposed joint detail. The joint detail was developed to overcome the main problems with RCS frame systems, which is constructability. The behavior of the beam-column joints was evaluated in terms of strength capacity, stiffness degradation, energy dissipation, and joint shear distortion. Comparing all specimens based on the load-displacement hysteresis curves indicated that the specimen with the combination of ABP and EBP had relatively better performance in terms of strength, stiffness, and energy dissipation. ABP and EBF in the joint with a void web were able to withstand joint shear deformation exceeding 0.01 rad, with only low to medium level of damage. EBF was proven to be very effective in providing confinement and reducing the damage level in the joint panel. The existence of a void web did not affect the reduction of joint shear strength.

Abstract

In this research, Dy3+ ion-doped Na2O-PbO-ZnO-Li2O-B2O3 glasses were developed using the melt and quenching method. The addition of Dy3+ ions in the glass improved the optical properties. The XRD graph verified the amorphous of the glass sample. FTIR showed the vibration of BO3 and BO4 in the structure of the glass. The enhancement of NBOs in the structure of the glass affected the reduction of the bandgap energy of the glass. The hypersensitive transition of the present glass was found at 1270 nm (infrared region) due to electron movement from the 6H15/2 level to the 6H9/2+6F11/2 level. The strong white emission of the glasses came from 575 nm (yellow region) and 483 nm (blue region) when excited by 349 nm. The CIE 1931 chromaticity was located at (0.37;0.40) and verified the white emission of the glasses. Meanwhile, the trendline of the JO parameter was W2 > W6 > W4,indicating the high ionic character of the glass structure. The value of the calculated branching ratio and emission cross-section of Dy_1.0 glass was 0.64 and 0.90 x 10-20 cm2, respectively. From the analysis of results, the present glass has high potential for WLED and laser application.

Abstract

Food waste collected from the Ubaya canteen was characterized for its potential for use as anaerobic feedstock. It was collected for 3 weeks on a daily basis and treated with 2 different pretreatments, i.e. mechanic and mechanic-thermal. The result showed that the physical and chemical properties of the food waste in the 3-week time period of collecting were not significantly different for both pretreatments. The VS/TS ratio was around 96.4% to 97.076% and C/N was in the range of 17.295 to 17.813 for the mechanic and mechanic-thermal treatments. Four semi-batch mesophilic anaerobic digesters were used in this study, with 1.215 gVS/L fed once (R1) and twice daily (R3); 2.43 gVS/L fed once (R2) and twice daily (R4). The maximum methane yield was determined to be 64.61 mL/gVS in R1 after 5 days of incubation and 57.41 mL/gVS in R3 after 4 days of incubation. Systems R2 and R4 showed maximum methane yields of 43.15 mL/gVS and 19.1 mL/gVS respectively.

Abstract

To improve the geotechnical stress"“strain analysis, the stress"“strain behavior of geomaterial under general three-dimensional stress conditions prevailing in the field need to be captured. The true triaxial apparatus is an enhanced version of the conventional triaxial apparatus, which allows to simulate stresses by applying loadings independently in 3 orthogonal directions. This study evaluated the strength and deformation behavior of Bangka sand under true triaxial test conditions. The test specimens were prepared by means of the multi-sieve sand pluviation method. Various true triaxial test stress paths were applied under axial compression, lateral extension, axial extension, and lateral compression with the objective of understanding and developing the empirical correlation of coarse-grained soil strength parameters in axial compression stress paths related to other stress paths. The test results showed that an increase in the value of b, the parameter used to quantify the relative magnitude of the intermediate principal stress to the other principal stresses, resulted in an increase of the internal friction angle and a decrease of the peak stress ratio. In addition it was observed that the Lade-Duncan failure criterion fitted the results of this study better than other failure criteria, namely the extended von Mises, Mohr-Coulomb, and Matsuoka-Nakai failure criteria.

Abstract

This paper presents the characterization of LM6 aluminum alloy with varying copper addition. LM6 is a soft, light-weight and corrosion resistant metal. Due to these characteristics, the material was selected to be added with copper to identify improved properties. The amount of copper addition was varied from 0%wt with intervals of 3%wt for every alloying run. Vibration casting, or vibration molding, was conducted. The vibration process is said to give a better result in terms of the alloy's grain size and arrangement. Mechanical testing and microstructure analysis were performed to prove the theory. Specimens with various amounts of copper were successfully produced and tested. The LM6 alloy specimen casted without copper and with vibration casting at 20 Hz had the highest tensile strength and percentage of elongation, while the LM6 alloy specimen casted with 9%wt of copper without mechanical vibration casting had the best mechanical properties based on the overall results and criteria. The percentage of copper addition that produced the optimum properties was found to be 9%wt of copper without vibration molding (hardness 46.2HRB, 125 MPa).

Abstract

Contemporary hybrid solar-wind farms are commonly implemented using separate solar photovoltaic (PV) cell arrays and wind turbines, where the electricity currents generated from both devices are combined. However, this solution requires a large amount of space to cater for the PV arrays and wind turbines of the system. This paper proposes a new type of renewable energy electric generator with a small power production footprint (PPF) that allows reduction of land usage. The True Hybrid Wind-Solar (THWS) generator allows for the solar panels to rotate along with a VAWT wind turbine that is attached through a specially designed electromechanical coupling mechanism. The working principle behind the connections is described in this paper. The design of a hybrid circuit module that serves to combine the currents generated via the solar cells and the wind generator and also to automatically disconnect inactive wind or solar generators is described. The latter is important in order to eliminate unwanted load generated from the inactive generators within the THWS itself.
