One treatment option is Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion (LLIF) surgery. In the medical field, finite element analysis (FEA) can be used to predict the best surgical plan. LLIF surgery involves implanting an interbody cage into the disc space, which may potentially move to regain the disk height while helping stabilize the vertebral bones. In this study, FEA was applied using Mechanical Finder software (MF) to develop a 3D spine model lumbar vertebrae of the fourth and fifth lumbar vertebrae (L4 - L5) with the interbody cage design. The cage was made of polyether ether ketone (PEEK) and designed using Solidworks software. Given the auxetic structure's outstanding energy absorption capabilities, a re-entrant auxetic structure core with a novel sandwich panel was implanted between the lumbar vertebrae L4 and L5, as determined by CT scans using MF software. The model was analyzed in MF to assess the strength and fracture risk analysis of the interbody cage, with the results compared to mechanical properties values obtained by applying compression load (1000 N) to simulate spinal movements. Stress and strain distribution rates were exhibited when applying a force of 1000 N. The findings underscore the relevance of cage design, namely the surface endplate, in mitigating undesirable occurrences associated with cage sinking. To attain enough strength under typical conditions, a lumbar cage with a re-entrant auxetic construction has been proposed.","PeriodicalId":38652,"journal":{"name":"ARPN Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141670809","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}

Material with a ratio (1:1) was chosen to be characterized using BET, SEM-EDS, and used as methylene blue adsorption. Methylene blue adsorption process with several variables including contact time, concentration, and temperature of methylene blue dye. The results of the XRD characterization of the chitosan-GO composite (1:1), (1:3), and (1:5) showed a diffraction peak at an angle of 2θ, namely 25.1°; 26.29° and 19.54°. The surface area of the chitosan-GO composite (1:1) with BET was 145.3505 m2/g. Characterization using SEM showed that the chitosan-GO (1:1) composite had a porous structure and was not homogeneous. Optimum conditions for the adsorption of the chitosan-GO composite on methylene blue were obtained at 50 minutes contact time, concentration of 60 ppm, and at 50°C.

Moreover, some applications do not need such exact positional precision. In recent times, smartphones have included Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) to determine their location, particularly for collecting descriptive data to update the attribute data of geographic information systems (GIS). This process does not require high levels of positional precision. The present study comprises two experiments. The first experiment is conducted in a small, unobstructed local region that provides optimal circumstances. Its purpose is to demonstrate the varying levels of precision in Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) for precise point positioning (PPP). Both single- and dual-frequency devices are used, and the International GNSS Service (IGS) correction is applied to highlight the fact that high accuracy is not necessarily required. Conversely, the second proposal proposes a cost-effective idea for an application that may be developed utilizing a smartphone to update attribute data instead of relying on a personal digital assistant (PDA) device and PPP. The accuracy ranges were determined by applying PPP, GNSS, and IGS adjustments. For single frequency, the range was 0.054 m to 0.330 m, while for dual frequency; it was 0.053 m to 0.280 m. The accuracy of location utilizing a single-frequency GNSS on a smartphone ranged from 1.2 m to 1.6 m, as shown by the revised descriptive data in GIS applications.","PeriodicalId":38652,"journal":{"name":"ARPN Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141671326","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}

{"title":"Replacement of tubular fluorescent lamps with tubular LEDs lamps and daylight integration in classrooms and laboratories","authors":"","doi":"10.59018/032452","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.59018/032452","url":null,"abstract":"The quality of lighting significantly influences our ability to perform tasks in enclosed spaces, and certain\u0000characteristics of lighting sources play a crucial role. Light-emitting diode (tubular LED) lamps offer advantages for both\u0000home and office use. Choosing tubular LED lamps over fluorescent ones is beneficial for several reasons. Tubular LEDs\u0000are mercury-free, ensuring environmental safety compared to the small amount of mercury present in fluorescent tubes.\u0000Furthermore, tubular LEDs provide directional lighting, minimizing light loss in fixtures and unnecessary areas, and\u0000offering better efficiency (around 40% more than tubular fluorescent lamps). Also, they produce high-quality light with\u0000various color temperatures, eliminating flickering issues that can cause discomfort such as eye strain, headaches, and\u0000migraines. Additionally, tubular LEDs have a longer lifespan making them a preferable lighting option. The superior\u0000quality of natural light makes it the optimal source of illumination, which matching well with the visual response of the\u0000human eyes. Daylight has a positive influence on people, instilling a feeling of vibrancy and brightness within their living\u0000environment. The acknowledged benefits of daylight extend to enhancing visual comfort, promoting health, and improving\u0000overall performance among building occupants. This paper focuses on the integration of natural daylight with artificial\u0000light, particularly through tubular LED lamps, and investigates the daylight factor. Two groups of six tubular LED lamps\u0000(60cm with 9 Watt and 120cm with 18 Watt) and another group of six tubular fluorescent lamps (60cm with 18 Watt and\u0000120cm with 36 Watt) were studied. The study involved two sets of six tubular LED lamps (60cm with 9W and 120cm with\u000018W) and another set with six tubular fluorescent lamps (60cm with 18W and 120cm with 36W). Measurements were\u0000conducted using Spectroradiometer Ocean Optics HR 2000 with 4.7% uncertainty and a photometric bench to assess the\u0000spectral output. Additionally, UVA/B silicon detector and Luxmeter detector setups with uncertainties of 5.2% and 6%,\u0000respectively, were employed for irradiance and illuminance measurements of tubular LEDs and fluorescent lamps. Various\u0000parameters, including daylight factor ratio, UVA power to luminous flux (K) for tubular fluorescent lamps, spectral power\u0000distribution, and illumination levels were obtained. Integration between daylight and tubular LED lamps was also\u0000determined. The maximum detected value lmW /013.0\u0000 is less than the safe limit for human health but still there are effects\u0000on human health if they use these types of lamps. Therefore, it is advisable to switch from tubular fluorescent lamps to\u0000tubular LEDs to mitigate the impact of UVA on human health and the environment.","PeriodicalId":38652,"journal":{"name":"ARPN Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141128167","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}
