Abstract

Due to the health effects of ammonia as an environmental pollutant, such as its odor, corrosion, algae phenomenon, etc., a method should be adopted to remove it from wastewater. In this study, removal of ammonia from hypothetical wastewater was investigated using adsorption on SWCNTs. The Design-Expert software was used to design the experiments and optimize the parameters that are effective in the adsorption performance of carbon nanotubes (CNTs), such as contact time, adsorbent dosage, pH, temperature, and ammonia concentration. The results revealed that the maximum adsorption with a performance of 90% was attained at a pH of 9.5. In addition, the adsorption performance was enhanced by increasing adsorption time and adsorbent dosage. Furthermore, increasing the temperature and the adsorbate quantity led to a decrease in the adsorption performance.

Abstract

The float and hull are vital parts of amphibious planes and boats, respectively, as both have to absorb hydrodynamic impact due to interaction with water. Sandwich composite panels are commonly used for such applications and other impact-absorbing structures. Unfortunately, the failure mechanism of sandwich composite panels under hydrodynamic impact is very complicated, as it may consist of composite skin failure, core failure, and non-uniform delamination. Hence, a numerical study on the damage of sandwich composite panels under hydrodynamic load is necessary. In this study, numerical simulation implementing the Coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian (CEL) method was performed to observe the damage mechanism of sandwich composite panels. The CEL method combines the Lagrangian and Eulerian frames into one model. Thus, analysis of structure deformation and fluid motion can be performed simultaneously. The result of the current numerical simulation shows a fair agreement with the experimental results in the literature, which shows that the current methodology can represent the sandwich composite panel response in real-life conditions, especially before shear core failure initiates.

Abstract

This study sought to apply nanotechnology to develop the electrical characteristics of palm oil. Experiments were conducted using three types of nanoparticles: zinc oxide (ZnO), titanium dioxide (TiO2), and barium titanate (BaTiO3). The nanofluid samples were prepared by mixing the nanoparticles with palm oil using various processes. In the first scenario, a combination of palm oil with nanoparticles at 0.01 vol% was created, while the next sample had 0.03 vol% of nanoparticles. The samples were then fully dispersed using a magnetic stirrer, followed by ultrasonic dispersal in order to ensure homogeneity of the nanofluid. The electrodes were set 2.5 mm apart and the test was performed six times on each test sample in compliance with the IEC 60156 standard. The voltage breakdown characteristics were recorded for each of the liquids at temperatures varying from 35 °C to 90 °C. The results showed that for the palm oil samples containing nanoparticles, the voltage breakdown was greater than for the samples containing unmodified palm oil.

Abstract

Methods for the prediction of soil behavior during the application of vacuum preloading are available but have not been used precisely and have not been proven yet in Indonesia. There are two common approaches to vacuum preloading simulation, based on the application of a uniform external load to the vacuum area, and based on suddenly lowering the groundwater level to create vacuum conditions, respectively. This affects the settlement, lateral deformation, and pore pressure predictions. The objective of this research was to improve the prediction of soil behavior based on high-quality field data by using state of the art vacuum preloading simulations. The results were compared with those of a series of instrumentation equipment, i.e. a settlement plate, an extensometer, and a piezometer. This research used data from the Palembang-Indralaya Toll Road, a section of the Trans Sumatera Toll Road that is approximately 22 km long and has an embankment height of about 4 m to 9 m. It was built over a swampy soft soil area, using vacuum preloading to improve the soil. Axisymmetric analysis of vacuum preloading was conducted for a single-drain system, plane-strain analysis was conducted for single- and multiple-drain systems, and 3D analysis was conducted for single-drain, multiple-drain, and cluster-drain systems. The results show that the proposed method produced a good correlation between the predicted data and the recorded monitoring data.

Abstract

Previous studies on the connection between concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) columns and reinforced concrete (RC) beams have shown a loss of joint confinement because the steel tube was completely or partially cut in the joint area. This research presents a new connection system that provides joint confinement through a continuous steel tube. Potential sliding shear at the smooth interface between the columns and beams in the joint face is mitigated using two mechanisms: (i) shear connectors and (ii) longitudinal web beam reinforcement. This study tested two CFST column and RC beam joints to 4.5% drift ratio under combined compression axial load and lateral cyclic load. The experimental results revealed no cracks at the joint zone and the specimens satisfied the ACI 374.1-05 criteria, despite minor sliding at the beam-column interface. The finite element (FE) model showed good agreement with the experimental results.

Abstract

Every building has certain electricity consumption patterns that depend on its usage. Building electricity budget planning requires a consumption forecast to determine the baseline electricity load and to support energy management decisions. In this study, an algorithm to model building electricity consumption was developed. The algorithm is based on the support vector regression (SVR) method. Data of electricity consumption from the past five years from a selected building object in ITB campus were used. The dataset unexpectedly exhibited a large number of anomalous points. Therefore, a tolerance limit of hourly average energy consumption was defined to obtain good quality training data. Various tolerance limits were investigated, that is 15% (Type 1), 30% (Type 2), and 0% (Type 0). The optimal model was selected based on the criteria of mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) < 20% and root mean square error (RMSE) < 10 kWh. Type 1 data was selected based on its performance compared to the other two. In a real implementation, the model yielded a MAPE value of 14.79% and an RMSE value of 7.48 kWh when predicting weekly electricity consumption. Therefore, the Type 1 data-based model could satisfactorily forecast building electricity consumption.

Abstract

Optical directional couplers fabricated using planar light wave circuit (PLC) technology are versatile tools in integrated photonics devices. They have the advantages of small size, high consistency, ability for high volume production, and excellent possibility to be integrated with electronics circuits. Optical waveguide couplers are mainly utilized as power dividers, optical switches, and wavelength division multiplexers/de-multiplexers (WDM). A number of methods have been used to analyze directional couplers, such as coupled mode theory (CMT), the beam propagation method (BPM), the method of lines (MoL), finite-difference methods (FDM), and finite element methods (FEM). Among these numerical approaches, MoL is the simplest method to analyze mode propagation inside directional couplers because it has the advantages of very fast convergence and accurate solutions for one-dimensional structures. The objective of this study was to analyze the propagation of TE modes in optical directional couplers by using MoL. The parameters used, i.e. waveguide width, refractive index, and wavelength, were taken from the characteristics of silica-on-silicon directional couplers that were used in fabrication. MoL is considered a special finite-difference method, which discretizes a one- or two-dimensional wave equation in the transverse direction and uses an analytical solution for the propagation directions. Basically, MoL is a semi analytical numerical method with the advantages of numerical stability, computational efficiency, and calculation time reduction. Further, we explored the possibility of using directional couplers as optical switching devices.

Abstract

In this study, the exact transient differential equation was used to calculate the convection heat loss in a heat sink with a rectangular cross section fin. The result of the analytic solution was compared to the result from experiments conducted on a standard heat sink. The experiments were performed at a constant heat flow of 9000 W/m2 and a low airflow rate ranging from 12 to 100 cm3/s in seven steps. The comparative results showed that while there was good agreement between the experimental result and the exact solution, the average error ratio increased with an increase of the airflow rate. However, the maximum average error ratio between the experimental result and the exact solution did not exceed 6.4%. The maximum temperature distribution in the heat sink was obtained at a time of 900 s in all experiments.

Abstract

Molecular changes due to high temperatures, sunlight, and oxygen, deteriorate the physical properties of rubber compounds, yielding additional crosslinks and molecular chain breakdown. Since oxidative degradation is the most important factor that determines the durability of rubber components, this study evaluated the mechanical behavior of rubber compounds exposed to accelerated thermal ageing. Therefore, three carbon black-reinforced natural rubber-based compounds typically used for rubber bearings were exposed to thermal oxidation and their mechanical properties under typical loading states were assessed through standardized tests. Significant differences were found due to thermal ageing in the compressive modulus, compression set, and creep compliance in compression, exhibiting a stiffening effect caused by additional crosslinks. However, no significant differences were observed in hardness, which is a superficial measurement and a typical test in the rubber industry to characterize rubber compounds. Therefore, the assessment of ageing in rubber bearings should not be limited to a hardness test, which is required in design standards but also addresses compressive, cyclic, and transient tests. The results obtained in this study can be considered in the design process of rubber bearings by limiting the allowable compressive stress and creep deflection due to ageing effects.

Abstract

This paper presents the development process of a laboratory-scale Lamb wave-based structural health monitoring (SHM) system for laminated composite plates. Piezoelectric patches are used in pairs as actuator/sensor to evaluate the time of flight (TOF), i.e. the time difference between the transmitted/received signals of a damaged plate and those of a healthy plate. The damage detection scheme is enabled by means of evaluating the TOF from at least three actuator/receiver pairs. In this work, experiments were performed on two GFRP plates, one healthy and the other one with artificial delamination. Nine piezoelectric transducers were mounted on each plate and the detection of the delamination location was demonstrated, using 4 pairs and 20 pairs of actuators/sensors. The combinations of fewer and more actuators/sensor pairs both provided a damage location that was in good agreement with the artificial damage location. The developed SHM system using simple and affordable equipment is suitable for supporting fundamental studies on damage detection, such as the development of an algorithm for location detection using the optimum number of actuator/sensor pairs.
