This is crucial, as it influences their decisions on the choice of which control charts to employ. This study aims to explore and compare the performance of the side sensitive group runs (SSGR) and exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) control charts. In general, the average run length (ARL) characteristics were used to evaluate the performance of these control charts. The ARL, which considers the exact shift size in the process, is restricted in the case when the practitioner cannot identify the process shift size (unknown shift size). In this situation, the expected average run length (EARL) is an alternative performance criterion. Upon comparison of the findings obtained, the EWMA chart has superior performance when (δmin, δmax) = (0.1, 0.4). In contrast, the SSGR chart overtakes the EWMA chart when (δmin, δmax) = (0.5, 0.8) and (δmin, δmax) = (0.9, 1.2), except when the sample size n = 3 for (δmin, δmax) = (0.5, 0.8). For this particular combination, the EWMA chart performs slightly better than the SSGR chart. The outcome of this study is expected to contribute to practitioners in identifying suitable control charts in process monitoring and implementation.","PeriodicalId":14189,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Integrated Engineering","volume":"74 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135821358","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}

However, adding nanoparticles such as multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) can be used to improve the composites' mechanical properties substantially. The purpose of this study is to investigate the stability of MWCNTs in distilled water (DW) and dimethylformamide (DMF). Electrophoretic deposition (EPD) was chosen as the method for depositing MWCNTs onto carbon fiber (CF) fabric because of the advantages of simple equipment and inexpensive cost. Thus, the effect of voltage and deposition time were examined to attain the ideal condition for the EPD of MWCNTs onto CF fabric. The stability of dispersed MWCNTs in various dispersing mediums was explored as the importance of the MWCNTs to remain stable in the medium is essential to achieve homogeneous deposition. The UV-Vis and colloidal stability test revealed that MWCNTs dispersed in DMF have greater stability than DW. Scanning Electrode Microscopy (SEM) images exhibited that 10 minutes and a 20 V voltage were the optimal conditions for the deposition of MWCNTs onto CF fabric.","PeriodicalId":14189,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Integrated Engineering","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135821526","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}

From a safety aspect, Cellular-V2X (C-V2X) wireless technology was introduced by the Third Generation Partnership Project Organization (3GPP) to realise the transmission of emergency messages at critical times, anywhere. Specifically, Mode 4 C-V2X supports side-link communication without relying on a base station to provide network coverage. However, Mode 4 is susceptible to several limitations, which include half-duplex transmission, packet collision, and propagation errors that will cause intermittent connectivity issues. It is also difficult to determine appropriate parameter configurations that can increase the spectrum efficiency of dense networks to facilitate reliable and low-latency networks. The objective of this paper is to investigate the effectiveness of a Mode 4 C-V2X system under different road topologies and traffic scenarios. The study adopts a Krauss vehicular mobility model based on SUMO software to model normal and dense networks in a highway and a road intersection scenario, then perform simulation using OMNET++ software to analyse the impact of different physical layer (PHY) configurations such as modulation and coding scheme, packet size, number of resource block allocation, as well as the probability of resource reservation. The results show that the optimal configuration of parameters depends on the scenario. For highway scenarios, a lower MCS and a higher number of RBs are recommended. For road intersection scenarios, a higher MCS and a lower number of RBs are recommended. The packet size should also be in accordance with the requirements of the application used. The findings of this study can be used to assist in the design of an optimal intelligent transportation system using adaptive C-V2X parameters that can be automatically adjusted under different scenarios and network conditions.","PeriodicalId":14189,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Integrated Engineering","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135781228","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}

Then, the tool failure effect was studied, and the causes were generated using the Ishikawa diagram. The occurrence, severity, and detection rating were assigned, and the Risk Priority Number (RPN) was generated. FMEA Risk Matrix was used to help provide a visual aid for classifying and categorizing the level of risk. The highest risk was then identified from the highest RPN value, and the cause and prevention methods were generated for each failure effect cause.

Studies have shown that the inerter can provide satisfactory vibration isolation for a number of suspension applications, including train suspension, building suspension and vehicle suspension. In the context of vehicle suspension, the existing passive inerter has been shown to provide benefits to vehicle dynamics performance measures, such as ride comfort and road holding ability. However, a basic passive inerter has fixed characteristic, and hence its potential is limited. This study overcome this limitation by incorporating variable inertia in inerter flywheel, however its non-linear characteristic needs to be determined. The method of achieving variable inertia in inerter flywheel is through introduction of movable masses or sliders attached with springs into inerter flywheel. The change of moment of inertia is caused by position change of sliders due to centrifugal force when the flywheel is rotating. Results showed that the proposed variable inerter exhibits a non-linear force-acceleration relationship with respect to its operating rotational speed. A vehicle suspension system equipped with a variable inerter is also able to further reduce vertical vehicle body acceleration and vehicle’s dynamic tire load when compared with vehicle suspension system without inerter and equipped with a passive inerter, which indirectly relates to a better vehicle ride and handling performance improvements. Hence, it can be proved that the proposed variable inerter is better than a passive inerter and is able to provide better ride comfort and road holding ability to a vehicle.","PeriodicalId":14189,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Integrated Engineering","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135780916","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}

It is generally complex and expensive to prepare hydrophobic coatings. The present work is related to the development of a surface coating on 3D printed ABS specimens with the mentioned properties. 3D printed specimens were fabricated using Flash Forge 3D printer without any modifications, and the hydrophobic coatings were achieved by dip coating process using Tricalcium phosphate-chitin solutions with a ratio of 70:30.

The objective of this paper is to develop a Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control (CACC) model at a road intersection using platooning car-following mobility models, object detection at traffic light units, and Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) communication through vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs). The mobility model considers traffic simulation using the SUMO-PLEXE-VEINS platforms integration.

The results show accurate detection of obstruction by the proposed assisted car platooning system, and an optimised smart traffic light operation that can reduce congestion and fuel consumption, improve traffic flow, and enhance road safety.

Meanwhile, a bearing is playing the most important component of rotating machinery. To sustain the system's smooth running, maintenance methods such as preventive maintenance, breakdown maintenance, and predictive maintenance are used. Under preventive maintenance, vibration analysis is used to diagnose machines bearing faults. The main objective is to recognize bearing defects in a mechanical device by acquiring signals from the bearing using data acquisition hardware. This analysis is conducted under various load torque conditions, speeds, and defect types. A modular hardware configuration consisting of an accelerometer acquires the vibration signal. The signals are analyzed by using I-kazTM and I-kaz 3D signal analysis and its main objective is to observe the degree of dispersion data from its mean point. This analysis resolves the issues associated with time domain analysis. This pinch-hitting analysis research was conducted in two stages. The first stage is an experimental process that uses 3 types of bearings, the healthy (BL), inner race fault (IRF), and defect at outer race (ORF) bearing on the Machine Fault Simulator and forces with a different type of speed (1000, 1500 and 2500 rpm) and load variation (0.0564, 0.564 and 1.1298 N-m). In the second stage, computing the coefficient value and plots of signal’s I-kazTM and I-kaz 3D based on the bearings type were done accordingly. As a result, the analysis for detecting inner race fault, the deviation percentage averages calculation obtained the I-kazTM coefficient shows a better result with 96.86% by comparing to the I-kaz 3D that achieves 94.20%.
