    Drill Bit Design and Its Effect on Temperature Distribution and Osteonecrosis During Implant Site Preparation: An Experimental Approach
    In this study, the drilling parameters will be evaluated to obtain optimal parameters in minimizing the impact of drilling damage on synthetic bone blocks. The effect of damage observed in the study is osteonecrosis that occurs in the drill hole for implant site preparation, where a smaller value is desired. The drilling parameters are optimized using the Taguchi method with two control factors: the feed rate and spindle speed; each parameter is designed in five levels. This experiment was then carried out on four different designs of drill bits, i.e., Twist (118°and 135°), spherical, and conical drill bits. While experimental planning uses L25 orthogonal arrays, the "smaller is better" approach is used as a standard analysis. The main findings of this research are 118° point angle twist drill bit is the ideal type of drill bit for bone drilling, as it produces less heat than other types of drill bits. The optimal range of feed rate and drilling speed for bone drilling is 40-60 mm/rev and 1000-1400 RPM, respectively. Combining these parameters helps to minimize heat generation during implant site preparation drilling.

    Temperature Distribution Analysis of Lithium-Ion Polymer Battery Surface
    The main objective of this study is to investigate the heat load generated by the Lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery during the completion of the cycle. Besides that, the objective is also to identify the most affected surface of the Li-ion battery towards the temperature during the charging and discharging process. An experiment is carried out for five different conditions of battery to obtain the data for heat load calculation purposes. The five conditions are differences in discharge ampere. From the result obtained there are differences in heat load generated by the battery during the charging and discharging process for every condition. Furthermore, the greater the discharge ampere, the lower the time taken for the battery to discharge and the higher the heat load generated by the battery. Besides that, an experiment to investigate the temperature distribution along the experiment is also carried out. Four surfaces of battery (front, right, left, back in vertical position of battery) are put into concern in obtaining the temperature distribution. Every surface gives a different temperature distribution during the experiment. Surface 4 recorded the highest average temperature distribution. Thus, the cooling system will consider the cooling capacity at this surface.
