SADDAM HUSEIN. Analisa Pola Kegagalan Balok Beton Menggunakan GFRP Bar Tanpa Selimut Beton (dibimbing oleh Rudi Djamaluddin dan Rita Irmawaty) Struktur beton bertulang yang menggunakan tulangan baja pada daerah korosif, menjadi rawan terhadap kerusakan atau penurunan kekuatannya akibat korosi.Korosi pada tulangan baja merupakan salah satu faktor penyebab menurunnya kekuatan struktur beton bertulang. Salah satu material yang dikembangkan mengatasi korosi adalah penggunaan material tulangan GFRP (Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisa kapasitas lentur dan pola kegagalan balok beton tanpa selimut dengan menggunakan material tulangan GFRP bar.   Desain penelitian merupakan eksperimental laboratorium dengan rekapitulasi sebanyak 6 sampel yang terdiri dari 2 Balok beton menggunakan tulangan baja dengan selimut beton, 2 balok beton menggunakan tulangan GFRP bar dengan selimut beton, 2 balok beton menggunakan GFRP bar tanpa selimut beton. Metode pengujian dilakukan dengan dengan pengujian lentur statik monotonik dan Analisis data menggunakan uji kondisi retak awal dan kondisi ultimit.   Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa kapasitas lentur pada balok dengan tulangan GFRP bar lebih besar dibandingkan dengan balok tulangan baja dan mampu meningkatkan kapasitas lentur balok dalam menahan beban sebesar 39.76 %, pola kegagalan beton yang terjadi pada balok tulangan baja mengalami kegagalan lentur tekan ditandai dengan retakan yang terjadi pada sisi tertekan dan membentuk retakan tegak dengan sumbu netral beton yang tertekan, sedangkan pada balok beton tulangan GFRP tanpa selimut mengalami kegagalan keruntuhan tekan geser dengan kondisi tulangan berdeformasi (bi-linear) dengan retak miring dan secara tiba-tiba menjalar menuju sumbu netral beton yang tertekan sehingga terjadilah keruntuhan secara tiba-tiba.     SADDAM HUSEIN.Failure mode analysis of concrete Beams Using GFRP rebar Without concrete cover (supervised by Rudi Djamaluddin and Rita Irmawaty)   Reinforced concrete that uses rebar steel in corrosive areas, are prone to damage or decreased strength due to corrosion. Corrosion in the steel reinforcement is one of the factors that decreasing strength of reinforced concrete. One of the materials developed to overcome corrosion is the use of GFRP (Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer) reinforcement material. This study aims to analyze the flexural capacity and failure mode of concrete beams without concrete cover using material GFRP bar as reinforcement.   The research design was an experimental laboratory with a recapitulation of 6 samples consisting of 2 beams using steel reinforcement with concrete cover.2 concrete beams using reinforcement GFRP bar with concrete cover, 2 beams using GFRP bars without concrete cover. The  research method uses the monotonic static flexure and analyzing the data using the initial crack condition and ultimate conditions test.   The results of the research indicate the flexural capacity of the beams with GFRP bar reinforcement is higher than steel reinforcement beams and can increase 39.76% of the flexural capacity of the beams in holding loads , the failure mode analysis occurs in steel reinforcing beam experiences compressive failure. Failure was characterized  by cracks that occur on the depressing side and form an upright crack with the neutral axis of the compressed concrete, whereas in GFRP reinforced concrete beams without concrete cover, failure of shear compression with conditions of deformed reinforcement (bi-linear) with sloping cracks and suddenly spread towards the neutral axis of the compressed concrete so that there was a sudden collapse.

Abstract In this article, mode II fracture toughness ( G IIc {G}_{\text{IIc}} ) of unidirectional E-glass/vinyl ester composites subjected to sulfuric acid aging is studied at two different temperatures (25 and 90°C). Specimens were manufactured using the hand lay-up method with the [ 0 ] 20 {{[}0]}_{20} stacking sequence. To study the effects of environmental conditions, samples were exposed to 30 wt% sulfuric acid at room temperature (25°C) for 0, 1, 2, 4, and 8 weeks. Some samples were also placed in the same solution but at 90°C and for 3, 6, 9, and 12 days to determine the interlaminar fracture toughness at different aging conditions. Fracture tests were conducted using end notched flexure (ENF) specimens according to ASTM D7905. The results obtained at 25°C showed that mode II fracture toughness increases for the first 2 weeks of aging and then it decreases for the last 8 weeks. It was also found that the flexural modulus changes with the same trend. Based on the results of the specimens aged at 90°C, a sharp drop in fracture toughness and flexural modulus with a significant decrease in maximum load have been observed due to the aging. Finite element simulations were performed using the cohesive zone model (CZM) to predict the global response of the tested beams.

Recently, maintaining a complex mechanical system at the appropriate times is considered a significant task for reliability engineers and researchers. Moreover, the development of advanced mechanical systems and the dynamics of the operating environments raises the complexity of a system’s degradation behaviour. In this aspect, an efficient maintenance policy is of great importance, and a better modelling of the operating system’s degradation is essential. In this study, the non-monotonic degradation of a centrifugal pump system operating in the dynamic environment is considered and modelled using variance gamma stochastic process. The covariates are introduced to present the dynamic environmental effects and are modelled using a finite state Markov chain. The degradation of the system in the presence of covariates is modelled and prognostic results are analysed. Two machine learning algorithms k-nearest-neighbour (KNN) and neural network (NN) are applied to identify the various characteristics of degradation and the environmental conditions. A predefined degradation threshold is assigned and used to propose a prognostic result for each classification state. It was observed that this methodology shows promising prognostic results.
