Abstract

The acoustic emission (AE) technique is known as a non-destructive testing (NDT) method, which is effective for assessing corrosion in concrete structures. This study aims to utilize the AE technique, for the assessment of pre-corroded concrete specimens, which are under load testing. Experiments were carried out on small-scale pre-corroded specimens, which were subjected to monotonic loading. The results showed that the majority of the beam specimens failed with shear cracks. Three AE parameters, namely acoustic emission hits, as well as the RA and AF values, were also used, in order to assess the flexure behaviour of the pre-corroded beam specimens. These experiments helped to understand the flexural behaviour of pre-corroded specimens, which were under a loading test, via the use of the AE technique.

Abstract

This paper focuses on comparing the behavior of RC tension members with and without the addition of polypropylene fibers at various corrosion levels. Eight cylindrical tensile specimens were tested to evaluate their tension-stiffening and cracking behavior. The content of polypropylene fiber added into the concrete mix was the main variable (0.25%, 0.50%, 0.75%, and 1.0% of total volume). The corrosion level was varied from slight (5%), medium (10%) to severe (30%) and, like the other variables, applied only to 1.0% polypropylene fiber-reinforced concrete (PFRC) specimens. The test results showed that the fiber addition significantly increased the tension-stiffening effect but was largely unable to reduce the effect of bond degradation caused by corrosion. Moreover, the addition of polypropylene fibers was able to improve the cracking behavior in terms of crack propagation, as shown by smaller crack spacing compared to the specimen without fiber addition at the same corrosion level.

Abstract

Indonesia aims to implement large-scale enhanced oil recovery (EOR) to increase the national oil production. Chemical EOR is a promising technology to boost the production of old reservoirs with the aid of surfactants and polymers. Thus, the production of low-cost EOR surfactants from local resources with acceptable performance is highly attractive. The objective of the present work was to demonstrate the development of low-cost lignosulfonate surfactant production from kraft black liquor (BL). First, lignin was isolated from black liquor using a novel CO2 bubbling technique, followed by addition of coagulants. Next, sodium lignosulfonate (SLS) was synthesized from the resulting lignin, followed by formulation of SLS with octanol and palm fatty acid distillate (PFAD) soap to obtain an ultralow interfacial tension (IFT) surfactant. The initial IFT value of the SLS solution was already high at 0.7 mN/m. After formulation, the composition SLS:PFAD soap:octanol = 70:22:8 (wt%) improved the IFT value to 3.1 10-3 mN/m. An ultralow IFT in the range of 10-3 mN/m as achieved here fulfills the required IFT value for EOR surfactant.

Abstract

Palm fatty acid distillate (PFAD) was used as raw material to produce solid lubricant, or anti-adherent, for confectionery or pharmaceutical products. To improve the degree of saturation, the PFAD was hydrogenated by using two methods: gaseous hydrogenation (GH) and catalytic transfer hydrogenation (CTH) using ammonium formate to produce hydrogenated PFAD (HPFAD). The HPFAD was saponified with MgO to produce magnesium salts of hydrogenated PFAD (Mg-HPFAD). The objective of this research was to investigate the effect of hydrogen concentration and reaction temperature on the iodine value of HPFAD and to investigate the characteristics of paracetamol tablets when using Mg-HPFAD as lubricant compared to commercial Mg-stearate. The HPFAD produced by CTH had a lower iodine value than the HPFAD produced by GH. The lowest iodine value was obtained after CTH using 3.6 M ammonium formate at 90°C. Paracetamol tablets with Mg-PFAD or Mg-HPFAD lubricant showed higher dissolution of active compounds with similar friability, frictiability, and hardness compared to paracetamol tablets with Mg-stearate.

Abstract

Exfoliated graphite (EG)  was prepared by mixing graphite with HNO3 and KMnO4 at weight ratio 1:2:1 using microwave heating at times 20, 60, 80 and 120 sec. Graphene  oxide (GO) was then prepared using EG as precursor by the modified Hummer’s method. Atomic force microscopy (AFM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy analyses  showed successful conversion of EG into GO. The XRD results of the GO showed that the maximum interplanar distance (d-spacing) increased from 0.344 to 0.831 nm. The AFM showed a minimum thickness of  0.519 nm for a single layer of GO prepared from EG 80 sec. The XRD examination also showed an increase in the d-spacing between the GO layers after sonication compared to before sonication.

Abstract

A numerical simulation was conducted to study the free convection of Ag/H2O nanofluid between a square cavity with cold walls and an egg shaped cylinder with a hot wall. Utilizing the egg equation, dimensionless governing equations were solved using the Galerkin Finite Element Method (GFEM). In this work, several parameters were studied, i.e. Rayleigh number (103 ≤ Ra ≤ 106), volume fraction (0 ≤ φ ≤ 0.05), position (-0.2 ≤ Y ≤ 0.2), and orientation angle (-90° ≤ γ ≤ 90°). The numerical results are presented as streamline contours, isotherm contours, and local and average Nusselt numbers. Moreover, the results were used to analyze the fluids’ structure, temperature distribution, and heat transfer rate. The numerical results confirmed that the stream intensity value increased with an increase of the Rayleigh number as well as the movement of the cylinder towards the bottom wall for all values of the orientation angle. Variation of the vertical position of the cylinder inside the cavity had a noticeable effect on , which increased by 50% at γ = -90°, and by 58% at γ = -45°. However, at Y = -0.2,  increased by 58% at γ = -45° and decreased by 7% at γ = -90°. The highest heat transfer rate was obtained at high Rayleigh number (Ra = 106), volume fraction (φ = 0.05), negative position (Y = -0.2), and the highest positive orientation angle (γ = 90°).

Abstract

In this paper, several forms of infinite impulse response (IIR) bandpass filters with constrained poles and zeros are presented and compared. The comparison includes the filter structure, the frequency ranges and a number of controlled parameters that affect computational efforts. Using the relationship between bandpass and notch filters, the two presented filters were originally developed for notch filters. This paper also proposes a second-order IIR bandpass filter structure that constrains poles and zeros and can be used as a  minimal parameter adaptive digital second-order filter. The proposed filter has a wider frequency range and more flexibility in the range values of the adaptation parameters.

Abstract

This paper presents the application of a smeared fixed crack approach for nonlinear finite element analysis of shear-critical reinforced concrete beams. The experimental data was adopted from tests undertaken on twelve reinforced concrete beams by Bresler and Scordelis in 1963, and from duplicate tests undertaken by Vecchio and Shim in 2004. To this end, all beams were modeled in 3D using the software package ATENA-GiD. In the modeling, the nonlinear behaviors of the concrete were represented by fracture-plastic constitutive models, which were formulated within the smeared crack and crack/crush band approaches. The applicability of nonlinear analysis was demonstrated through accurate simulations of the full load-deflection responses, underlying mechanisms, crack patterns, and failure modes of all 24 beams. Detailed documentation of the results is presented to demonstrate the potential and practical value of nonlinear finite element analysis in providing an informed assessment of the safety and performance of reinforced concrete structures.

Abstract

In this research, the robotic ankle design from Arizona State University (ASU) known as SPARKy was redesigned to accommodate the specific needs of Indonesian people. Most active prosthetic legs are designed based on gait parameters for people from Western countries, which may differ for people from other cultures that have a different anthropometry and economic background. Indonesians have smaller actuating power characteristics compared to people from Western cultures due to their smaller average weight and body height. Thus, the applied design strategy took advantage of a biomechanical energy regeneration scheme to reduce the actuator input power requirement and the relatively smaller mechanical power of the typical Indonesian ankle to create a potentially affordable robotic ankle with a smaller actuator that meets the technical specifications. The specifications of the powered prosthetic ankle were determined through the same methods used by SPARKy. Only one low-level control system, to actuate normal walking, was designed and tested on a fully assembled robotic ankle. The test results indicated a promising low-level control, where the robotic ankle can follow the predetermined trajectory required to actuate normal walking based on Indonesian gait data.

Abstract

We studied the direct conversion of CO2 to HCOOH through hydrogenation reaction without the presence of base additives on the transition metal-doped subnanometer palladium (Pd7) cluster (PdxM: M = Cu, Ni, Rh) by using a combination of density functional theory and microkinetic calculations. It was shown that the CO2 hydrogenation on Pd7 and Pd6M clusters are more selective towards the formate pathway to produce HCOOH than the reverse water gas shift pathway to produce CO. Inclusion of Ni and Rh doping in the subnanometer Pd7 cluster could successfully enhance the turnover frequency (TOF) for CO2 hydrogenation to formic acid at low temperature. The order of TOF for formic acid formation is as follows: Pd6Ni > Pd6Rh > Pd7 > Pd6Cu. This order can be explained by the trend of the activation energy of CO2 hydrogenation to formate (HCOO*). The Pd6Ni cluster has the highest TOF value because it has the lowest activation energy for the formate formation reaction. The Pd6Ni system also has a superior TOF profile for HCOOH formation compared to several metal surfaces in low and high-temperature regions. This finding suggests that the subnanometer PdxNi cluster is a promising catalyst candidate for direct CO2 hydrogenation to formic acid.
