Abstract

This study investigates the structural behavior of composite roof systems consisting of a double-layer space frame topped with a concrete slab. The analysis focuses on the influence of joint spacing, connection types (fixed vs. bolted), and the addition of a concrete slab on the overall system performance. Twelve structural models were developed using ETABS (CSI) software, with an equal distribution between slab-incorporated and slab-free configurations. After performing numerical simulations, key parameters, including element cross-sectional areas, vertical deflections, and maximum displacements, were evaluated according to ACI 318 reinforced concrete and AISC steel design standards. The results indicate that incorporating a concrete slab into a space-frame system significantly reduces the maximum vertical deflection and allows for more efficient element sizing, especially in the top chord elements. Furthermore, models with fixed supports demonstrated greater overall stiffness and stability compared to models with pinned connections. The results confirm the critical role of slab integrity and joint stiffness in enhancing structural efficiency, improving material utilization, and ensuring compliance with contemporary design standards.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the performance of bifacial photovoltaic (PV) panels under different reflective surface conditions in a tropical urban environment, specifically in Bandung, Indonesia. Bifacial PV systems offer the advantage of capturing solar radiation from both the front and rear sides, with performance significantly influenced by the surface beneath the panels. The experiment involved three surface types: asphalt, untreated paving blocks, and paving blocks coated with white paint. Each panel was installed at a fixed 8° tilt facing north, and data were collected from 09:00 to 15:00 local time. The results indicate that the white-painted surface produced the highest power output, reaching up to 410 Watts, followed by paving blocks at 390 Watts and asphalt at 370 Watts. Although all surfaces received a similar radiation pattern, their differing reflectivity affected the amount of radiation reaching the rear side of the bifacial panels. The white-painted surface, characterized by high reflectance, not only enhanced rear-side radiation capture but also maintained a more stable power output after peak solar hours. These findings highlight the critical role of surface reflectivity in optimizing bifacial PV performance and support the strategic use of surface materials in PV system deployment, particularly in tropical climates. This study contributes valuable empirical data to the growing field of bifacial PV applications and offers practical insights for improving energy yield in real-world tropical settings.

Abstract

Automatic motorcycles are popular due to their efficiency and flexibility in urban areas. CVT spring modifications are often done to improve performance. This research tested the effect of 1000 RPM (standard), 1500 RPM, and 2000 RPM CVT springs on a Beat Deluxe using a dynotest, observing torque, power, fuel consumption, CVT wear, and engine temperature on 68 kg and 134 kg riders. The results showed that at 3000 RPM, the highest torque was achieved by the 2000 RPM spring (14.04 Nm for 68 kg, 12.84 Nm for 134 kg). The highest power at 4000 RPM was also by the 2000 RPM spring (6.6 HP for 68 kg, 5.9 HP for 134 kg) but with the highest fuel consumption (0.021 l/km for 68 kg, 0.030 l/km for 134 kg). The 1500 RPM spring showed a moderate performance increase with wear and temperature between the 1000 RPM and 2000 RPM springs. The 1000 RPM spring produced the lowest temperature (76.5 ℃), followed by 1500 RPM (79.7 ℃) and 2000 RPM (84.1 ℃), indicating a correlation between spring stiffness and operating temperature.

Abstract

This study evaluates the performance of R290 refrigerant as an alternative to R404A in block ice-making machines based on vapor compression cycles. The method used is a quantitative experimental approach with direct testing of compressor power, condenser power, evaporator power, and coefficient of performance (COP) parameters. Test results indicate that R290 has lower power consumption and a higher COP compared to R404A, with a COP of 3.22 (R290) versus 2.48 (R404A). Additionally, R290 has a significantly lower global warming potential (GWP), making it more environmentally friendly. The more stable and efficient thermodynamic performance of R290 supports its effectiveness as an economical and sustainable alternative refrigerant for modern cooling applications.

Abstract

The Energy Efficient Car Contest (Kontes Mobil Hemat Energi or KMHE) is a national competition in Indonesia that challenges university students to develop ultra-efficient prototype vehicles. This study presents the design, simulation, and manufacturing of a custom steering system for the Laksamana V 1.0 single-passenger prototype vehicle developed by Team Laksamana. The steering system was engineered to meet strict requirements for weight, structural reliability, ergonomic fit, and maneuverability under competition conditions. A rack-and-pinion mechanism was selected after comparative evaluation of multiple steering concepts. Computer-Aided Design (CAD) and Finite Element Analysis (FEA) were employed to optimize the geometry and assess the mechanical strength of key components, including a tie rod made from SUS 201 stainless steel. The manufactured system weighs 3.74 kg, delivers a steering ratio of 12:1, and requires 2.8 Nm of torque, ensuring both agility and driver comfort. Although the measured turning radius was 6.3 meters—above the original target—it remains functional for KMHE circuits. FEA results confirmed that all structural stresses and deformations were well within safe limits, validating the design’s stiffness and durability. Overall, the developed steering system is reliable, efficient, and suitable for application in energy-efficient vehicle competitions.

Abstract

Damage to the Induce Draft Fan (IDF), will impact to the combustion system which serves to provide Secondary Air to meet the air needs of the combustion system in the furnace in the boiler. There are 2 IDFs in the generating unit which are operated simultaneously or alternately. The purpose of this research is to determine the damage to the IDF so that there is no decrease in power supply to PLN generators. The method used in this study used fishbone analysis. Based on the analysis, the IDF damage occurs due to abrasion on the fan blade which is caused by the blade surface in contact with the abrasive material (Fe2O3) on the flue gas. The malfunctioning of the Electrostatic Precipitator (ESP) causes the abrasive material (Fe2O3) in the flue gas to not flow to the IDF, thus damaging the blade

Abstract

Agricultural biomass such as cocoa husks and peanut shells have great potential as raw materials for briquettes to support the provision of sustainable alternative energy. This study aims to evaluate the effect of variations in the composition of these two materials on the characteristics of briquettes, including calorific value, moisture content, ash content, and burning time. The study was conducted using a completely randomized design (CRD) with five treatment compositions (KC1=100:0, KC2=70:30, KC3=50:50, KC4=30:70, KC5=0:100) and three replications. Data were analyzed using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), and if significant effects were found, the analysis was continued with Duncan’s Multiple Range Test (DMRT) at the 5% level. The results showed that a high proportion of cocoa husk resulted in higher moisture content (15.78%) and lower calorific value (3867 kcal/g), while a high proportion of peanut husk increased the calorific value to 5340 kcal/g and burning time to 84.8 minutes, but was accompanied by higher ash content (17.57%). The balanced mixture of KC3 (50:50) and KC4 (30:70) proved to offer the best compromise, with moisture content <10%, calorific value >4400 kcal/g, burning time >78 minutes, and ash content still within an acceptable range. Thus, although pure peanut shell briquettes (KC5) offer the highest performance, the combination of KC3 and KC4 is more worthy of consideration for improving briquette quality while optimizing the utilization of abundant cocoa shell waste.

Abstract

This study evaluates the effect of alkali treatment using NaOH solution on the mechanical properties and microstructure of hybrid composites based on epoxy resin reinforced with petung bamboo fiber and fiberglass. Bamboo fibers were immersed in five NaOH concentration variations (0%, 3%, 6%, 9%, 12%) before composite fabrication using the hand lay-up method. Tensile testing was performed according to ASTM D-638 standard and microstructural characterization using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). The results showed that 9% alkali treatment produced the best mechanical performance with a tensile strength of 58.68 MPa, elongation of 4.15%, and elastic modulus of 1413.49 MPa. SEM analysis indicated improved fiber-matrix adhesion due to removal of lignin and hemicellulose. Optimal alkali concentration enhanced composite performance, making it a potential candidate for eco-friendly vehicle interior applications.

Abstract

This paper presents a preliminary experimental study on the use of an analog bidirectional current sensorfor photovoltaic (PV) systems operated under Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) control. The ultimate goalof this research is to develop a comprehensive monitoring system for energy harvesting from PV systems using aPLC-based platform. As an initial step, this study investigates the behavior of a bidirectional sensor in detectingcharging and discharging processes in an off-grid PV configuration. The sensor is evaluated through experimentalmeasurements of current and voltage outputs, where the bidirectional characteristic provides an indication of thedirection of energy flow—charging when energy is stored in the battery and discharging when energy is supplied tothe load. Data acquisition and visualization are performed using LabVIEW, which allows real-time monitoring andvalidation of sensor performance at specific time intervals. The experimental results provide insights into theaccuracy and reliability of the analog bidirectional sensor under varying operating conditions. The novelty of thisstudy lies in its focus on sensor behavior analysis as a foundation for future PLC-based monitoring systemdevelopment. By validating sensor performance through this pre-study, the research ensures that reliable data canbe obtained for subsequent integration into a real-time monitoring and control system for PV energy harvestingapplications

Abstract

An incinerator is a high-temperature waste-burning device with a closed, insulated combustion chamber, designed to minimize environmental impact [1]. Modern incinerators aim to reduce inorganic waste and smoke emissions, particularly in Metro City, Lampung Province [2]. A key component is the wheel, which reduces friction and enhances mobility [3]. This study focuses on designing the incinerator wheel, determining its geometry and material, and analyzing stress, strain, and deformation through simulation [4]. The design process used Autodesk Inventor Professional, while simulations were performed in SolidWorks [5]. Tests were conducted under three load conditions: no load, 250 kg, and 500 kg. The final wheel design measures 150 mm in diameter, 50 mm in width, and 10 mm in thickness, using cast iron. Simulation results show stress, strain, and deformation remain below material limits, even at 500 kg load, confirming the wheel’s safety and reliability for optimal incinerator performance.
