In this case study, the construction of a 600 DWT Ro-Ro ferry. The 600 DWT Shipbuilding Project involves various risks that may affect the schedule and results. A risk assessment involving the quality control team, project lead, and production management is carried out to identify and quantify the level of risk and its consequences. \u0000The results of this assessment assist in understanding and managing project risk, stress the importance of communication and coordination between teams, and enable better contingency planning and more effective project management. The FMEA calculation method is used to identify potential failure modes, determine the impact of each failure, and calculate a risk score based on the probability and effect of each failure. The Bayesian method updates the likelihood of failure based on new data that appears during the shipbuilding process. FMEA data is taken from the RPN (Risk Priority Number) at the Occurrence value, then weighted against the list of risks. Most risks are considered 'rare' in terms of likelihood and 'insignificant' in terms of consequence, indicating that despite potential obstacles, the impact on the project is expected to be minimal. However, several risks with 'minor' effects have been identified, highlighting the importance of effective risk planning and mitigation. \u0000The integration of this method still needs to be improved, especially in the shipping industry. This method can be developed by making applications to control the procurement of materials at the beginning and during the construction and evaluation process at the end.

Therefore, in order to maintain the regulatory conditions of the ventilation system, it is reduced to a transitional mode, and then to a minimum ventilation mode. Low ventilation repeatability limits inside the building determine the minimum volume of air supplied by the ventilation system. The economic and production efficiency of poultry farming is related to the premises and climatic conditions, which can seriously affect the well-being of broilers. Heat stress contributes to behavioral, physiological and biochemical changes in broilers, which leads to economic losses. \u0000The purpose of this study is to influence the annual efficiency of the poultry house ventilation system, mainly in summer, in order to evaluate the efficiency during the reconstruction of the cooling system, that is, to improve the ventilation system of the room, as well as to give an economic assessment of waste disposal technology. \u0000Energy– and resource-saving, environmentally friendly technologies and technological tools, plastic-type recuperators, a bird droppings removal system, as well as lighting and irrigation processes were taken as the object of the study.

Then, the model was simulated to evaluate scenarios considering tactical decisions such as physician staff planning, operational decisions such as adjusting work schedules, and strategic decisions such as increasing observation beds. The best scenario would reduce the average waiting times for triage II patients by 17.30 % and 47.57 %, and triage III by 33.49 % and 43.49 % for medical consultation in the office or the minor surgery room, respectively. In addition, the waiting time in observation and the rate of patients left without being seen by a physician would be reduced by 92.45 % and 74.67 %, respectively. These results improve the quality and timeliness of the service and avoid putting the patient's health and life at risk. The designed model included more attributes for patients concerning the place of medical care in the emergency room, the number of visits to the physician, and the physician who will care for the patient.

Fossil fuel-based electricity generation is the primary contributor to air pollution and climate change, necessitating a shift towards renewable energy sources. The efficient production, distribution, and utilization of energy resources, along with ensuring affordable energy access and environmental sustainability, are key policy objectives for any country's energy sector. However, assessing sustainable electricity technologies is a complex task due to the diverse range of evaluation criteria and impacts associated with the practical implementation of these solutions. To overcome this challenge, this study proposes a multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) approach to select the optimal solution for the development of sustainable electricity technology. The study employs several reliable methods, including MAIRCA, SPOTIS, COMET, and the CRITIC weighting method, to perform ranking evaluations. Based on this, an evaluation Table of criteria using linguistic variables is constructed. Furthermore, a ranking of methods for developing sustainable electricity technology is established by combining MCDM optimization methods. The results indicate that future energy policies should prioritize sustainable energy technologies, particularly water and solar thermal solutions. These findings have significant implications for development policymakers as the transition towards a sustainable energy system becomes increasingly crucial. In the future, the findings of this research can be further developed on a regional level, enabling the identification of the most appropriate energy technologies for specific regions based on their unique characteristics and requirements","PeriodicalId":11804,"journal":{"name":"EUREKA: Physics and Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140471276","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The general three-body problem is often given as an example of a mathematical problem that ‘can’t be solved’. So, there is no general analytical solution. This problem can be significant and a special case of this problem is the Circular Restricted Three-Body Problem (CRTBP), which can be applied to the Earth-Moon system with a spacecraft, the Sun-Earth system with an asteroid, etc. In this paper, let’s focus on the motion of a test particle near the triangular Lagrange points L4 and L5 in the Earth-Moon and the Sun-Earth systems. Studying the movement of an object around these points is especially important for space mission design. To generate a trajectory around these points, the non-linear equations of motion for the circular restricted three-body problem were numerically integrated into MATLAB® 2023 software and the results are presented in the plane (x, y) and the phase plane (x, vx) and (y, vy). By numerical orbit integration, it is possible to investigate what happens when the displacement is relatively large or short from the Lagrange points. Then the small astronomical body may vibrate around these points. The results in this paper are shown in the rotating and inertia axes. Various initial positions near the Lagrange points and velocities are used to produce various paths the test particle can take. The same examples of numerical studies of trajectories associated with Lagrange points are shown in the inertial and the rotating coordinates system and are discussed.

But in reality, the load received by the road is more than standard, so it has the potential to accelerate road damage. This study aims to predict the increase in the value of the International Roughness Index (IRI) and model the increase in value (IRI) due to overload. The approach method used in the analysis is the prediction of an increase in the IRI value due to excess load. The data collection method is carried out on road sections which include IRI values, vehicle load testing, CBR values and environmental conditions. The location of data collection is carried out on BTS Provincial Road. Surabaya City – Legundi. The analysis method for the prediction of the IRI value is the HDM-4 method, while to model the prediction of the increase in the IRI value is used exponential method with various parameters related to the results. The prediction results show that overload affects the increase in the IRI value. From the initial IRI value of 2.37, if the road is traversed by vehicles with standard loads for 20 years, the IRI value increases to 10.42. While the road traveled by overloaded vehicles within 20 years from an IRI value of 2.37 will increase to 16.88. With overload, the IRI value increases very sharply with the exponential model y=2.3583e0.0982x. While the standard load by generating an exponential model y=2.3825e0.0739x. From the results of the exponential model, load overload resulted in a significant increase in the IRI value with a growth rate of 0.0982.

The study of the effect of the technical level of the traction transmission on the braking characteristics of the train is discussed. The application of an innovative traction reducer is proposed, which allows to increase the result indicator according to the unit consumption of the traction transmission. Taking the reduction of the mass of the proposed thrust reducer as one of the main factors shaping the effect on the braking system, the possibility of reducing the inertia coefficient of the rotating parts and the technical parameters considered in the equation of motion of the train is shown. Taking into account the method of calculating the braking distance, the braking distance in different speed ranges is calculated in a practical example, by evaluating the braking efficiency, the possibility of reducing the braking distance by 5 % and reducing the braking time in proportion is shown. As a result of the experiments carried out by the researchers, it became clear that the technical level of traction transmission, consisting of multi-stage innovative reducers, directly affects the movement of trains. Thus, increasing the value of the coefficient of inertia of the rotating parts should allow accelerating the acceleration and braking times of the trains, passing the flats quickly, reducing the braking distance and saving some fuel resources. By conducting emergency braking tests, experimental values of the train's braking distance and braking time were determined and their compliance with the reported values was confirmed.

However, it is still moderately understood because of the complexity of designing 3D experiments that consider all the factors affecting the powder flow and powder mixing, hindering the acquisition of enough data that would provide a basic conception of powder behavior. This study involves a simple granular material mixing system of low friction that has five walls, where two of them are high friction moving walls following a cyclic function, and the others are non-friction static walls. The purpose was to create a complete set of 3D experiments of powder distribution to have a better insight into the inside mixing behavior as a function of the initial powder filling level. Experiments at different filling heights were run, obtaining the best mixing at the highest filling level. It was obtained a non-mixing zone with a triangle shape highly affected by the column particle weight. The increase of the vertical component of the resultant force produced by the acrylic motion walls causes a high momentum transfer in the x, y and z directions resulting in a decrease in the no-mixing zone. It was found an asymptotic behavior of the triangle height as a function of the initial filling height of the powders which indicates that values above a limited initial filling level will not have a significant effect on the triangle.

The objective of this research is to investigate the characteristics and performance of activated carbon derived from various precursors (Petung and Santong bamboos) and activators (Ar, N2, and CO2) for detergent and methylene blue dye adsorption. The difficulty to be solved is determining the best precursor and activator for maximum methyl blue and detergent adsorption. Characterizations included FTIR, XRD, SEM, TGA, and adsorption isotherm testing. The study's findings show that activated carbons have functional groups O-H (hydroxyl), C-H (aldehydes and alkenes), C=C aromatic rings, C-H aromatic groups, and an amorphous structure. The presence of a porous and amorphous structure, as well as the C=C aromatic ring, makes activated carbons capable of absorbing methyl blue and detergent.
