The Effect of Dry and Wet Condition on the Mechanical Properties of Hybrid Single Lap

2017-10-23 , Mariam Majid , Mohd Afendi Rojan , Mohd Shukry Abdul Majid

The aim of this study is to investigate the strength and mechanical behaviour of similar and dissimilar materials AA7075/E-glass single lap joint. The specimen radially in stack with Araldite epoxy adhesive and mechanical fasteners of Huck bolt with the bondline length of 64 mm for different joint configurations; bolted, bonded and hybrid. The investigation was conducted under two different conditions of dry and wet of 55°C for long water immersion of 120 days. The effect of moisture was defined in hybrid joints as combination of adherend and bonding materials. The tensile test with a speed rate of 1 mm/min was conducted for both condition using 100 kN load cell until total failure of specimen. The experimental results were plotted into load displacement and stress strain curve for each environment. In addition, failure mechanism of the specimens was detected in which occurred at adhesive and Huck bolt.

Biogas production from the paddy straw pretreated with Sodium Hydroxide and co-digestion with cow manure

Paddy straw waste (PS) is an organic waste that is disposed in open land after preparation of rice harvest that is generated in equal or greater quantities than the rice itself. Generally, it is disposed in open land, which increases anthropogenic gases. Converting it into useful energy or value-added products may reduce disposal problems and anthropogenic activity. In this study, PS with different treatments of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) at 2, 4, 6 , 8 and 10% was co-digested with cow dung (CD) for obtaining biogas by anaerobic digestion. For this purpose, PS was mixed with CD at different proportions, namely 50:50, 40:60, 30:70, 20:80, and 0:100 percentages on a mass basis, the samples were used in five different anaerobic digesters. The samples were kept in different anaerobic digesters for the study. The effect of important input parameters like pH and Carbon to Nitrogen (C/N) ratio on the biogas production was studied. Maximum biogas production was obtained from the co-digestion of the substrate containing 30% ps and 70% Cd for a digestion time of 20 days, and d3 shows a max pH value of 7.16. Further, the biogas collected from the digesters was characterized to ensure suitability for use as a renewable fuel. Furthermore, the digested slurry was also analyzed for its use in agriculture. The results are presented in this paper.

Environmental effect on short-beam composite under three-point bending test

2017-01-01 , Mariam Majid , Mohd Afendi Rojan , Mohd Shukry Abdul Majid

The effect of moisture, water absorption on a single short span beam of glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) was examined under room temperature, 27°c. The aim of the study is to investigate the mechanical properties of composite under wet condition. The composite were cut into rectangular shape with a dimension of 78 mm long, 26 mm width and 3.5 mm depth. The moisture content of eight specimens was experimentally reduced as the glass fiber content increased. In this investigation, the flexural strength and modulus of composites were determined throughout the three-point bending test. The specimens were rigged up horizontally as supported beams and loaded vertically at the geometric center. Thus, the results were developed into loading versus deflection and relationship for each specimen. The samples were considered to have failed when the curves were in steady decline section. Failure mechanisms were observed in categories; face yield, core yield and fiber tear.
