Composites are still worth making bumper because the value of tensile strength is no less than the standard bumper which is 8,09 MPa. Next, failure simulation results based on a static test uses three variations of speed, namely 60 km/hr, 80 km/hr and 100 km/hr. The failure simulation results based on the static test of the three speed variations show the value of the von misses stress below the yield strength of the material, then the displacement value that occurs is small and the value of the safety factor produced is above one. From the results of the analysis of composite testing, it shows that the composite has the potential to be a car bumper material.Telah dilakukan penelitian tentang analisis sifat mekanik dan simulasi kegagalan komposit serat pelepah kelapa sawit matriks polypropylene sebagai bumper mobil.

Plastik is a material which has difficult to decompose. Therefore, the utilization of waste into useful material is important to do. This study aims to identify the tensile strength, bending, and macro structure of recycled PET, HDPE, and PET + HDPE plastik waste mixtures and recommendations for plastik products that fit the characteristics of these plastik types. PET and HDPE plastik waste is melted with oil and reprinted into tensile and bending test samples in accordance with predetermined variations, and then the results of the fracture are analyzed in a macro structure. Based on tensile testing, the tensile strength test results have the highest stress and strain values obtained in the mixture of 40% + HDPE 60% (B2) used oil specimens of 10.58 MPa and strain values of 11.98%. The results of bending strength testing which has the highest bending stress value and maximum load value are obtained in plastik mixture specimens with 30% used oil mixture + 70% HDPE (B1) of 11.58 MPa and for maximum load values of 43.33 KN. Testing the tensile strength and bending strength of the type of plastik mixture Oil and HDPE + PET (50%: 50%), the results obtained can still not be recommended to be used as a paving block product because the value of stress, strain, bending stress, and the maximum load is still relatively low, namely for the tensile test the highest variation of stress value is 5.21 MPa, the highest variation of strain value is 5.23%, the maximum load value is 10 KN, and the highest variation of bending stress value is 40% + 60% by 4.01 MPa.

The Matrix

The undesired residual stresses in fiber reinforced polymer composites are developed during their manufacturing processes due to the thermal and chemical shrinkage of the polymer matrix, which negatively affect the performance of the composites. Applying tensile stress to the reinforcement fibers during the curing of the matrix can reduce or eliminate the undesired residual stresses. Furthermore, the undesired tensile residual stress within the matrix can be replaced with beneficial compressive residual stress which can improve the mechanical properties of the composites. In this study, theoretical stress analysis was performed in order to determine the value of the optimum compressive residual stress that is associated with the highest tensile strength. This value was determined based on the tensile testing result of prestressed composites with a 40% fiber volume fraction. For the composites with different fiber volume fractions, a new approach was introduced to estimate the optimum fiber prestressing level which generates the optimum compressive residual stress within the matrix and consequently, the highest tensile strength can be achieved. In order to validate this approach experimentally, prestressed composites with 25 and 30% fiber volume fraction were prepared by applying the estimated optimum fiber prestressing levels during curing of matrix and tensile testing was performed. The result of the stress analysis showed that the value of the optimum compressive residual stress corresponding to the highest tensile strength is 2.5 MPa approximately. The tensile testing results confirmed the validity of the new approach in estimating the optimum fiber prestressing level for the composites with different fiber volume fractions. For both prestressed composites with 25 and 30% fiber volume fraction, the highest tensile strength was achieved when the theoretically estimated optimum fiber prestressing level was applied to the fibers during the curing of the matrix.

This paper presents the effect of volume fraction of rice husks on the mechanical properties of bamboo fiber/unsaturated polyester composites. The composite specimens were made from bamboo fiber with fixed volume fraction of 40% and rice husk particle as filler with volume fractions varied 0%, 10%, 20% and 30%. Matrix used was unsaturated polyester resin. Bamboo fibers and rice husk were surface treated using alkali solution 4% (by weight) for 2 hours. The manufacturing process of composite was using hand layup method. The specimens were tested in tension, bending and in impact loading. The results show that the addition of rice husk particles up to volume fraction of 20% does not result in a decrease of tensile strength, but after a volume fraction of 20%, the tensile strength tends to decrease. In bending test, the rice husk volume fraction up to 20% increase the bending strength, but after that then it tends to decrease. However the bending modulus seems unaffected by the volume fraction of rice husk. Similar to the bending modulus, the impact strength is not significantly affected by the volume fraction of rice husk.

[ID] Sebagai alternatif sumber energi konvensional, energi angin merupakan salah satu energi alternatif yang banyak dikembangkan. Pemanfaatan energi ini tidak lepas dari alat pengonversinya, kincir angin. Salah satu komponen kincir angin yang cukup penting adalah bilah. Bilah sering mengalami masalah berupa pengikisan pada bagian permukaannya akibat benturan dengan oleh partikel yang terbawa oleh angin yang dapat mengakibatkan fungsi bilah tidak optimal. Sehingga, dibutuhkan material pengganti yang lebih kuat tetapi ringan, yakni komposit. Komposit yang digunakan adalah komposit serat alam (serat Melaleuca leucadendra-poliester). Dalam penelitian ini akan dianalisa pengaruh fraksi volume serat berbentuk serutan terhadap kekuatan tarik, kelenturan dan ketangguhan. Pembuatan komposit serat alam Kayu Galam (Melaleuca leucadendra)-poliester dengan cara mencampurkan resin, katalis dan serat Kayu Galam yang berbentuk serutan kemudian dicetak didalam cetakan yang telah dilapisi alumunium foil. Sampel kemudian dilakukan pengujian kekuatan tarik dengan standar ASTM D 638, pengujian tekuk dengan standar ASTM D 790 serta pengujian impak dengan standar ASTM D 6110. Metode yang digunakan dalam pembuatan adalah metode hand lay-up. Hasil dari penelitian ini adalah nilai optimum yang dicapai yaitu 70% serat pada semua uji mekanik. Didapatkan nilai kekuatan tarik berada sebesar 13,07 MPa, kekuatan tekuk optimum 36,8 MPa dan nilai optimum dari kekuatan impak sebesar 590,39 MPa. [EN] As an alternative to conventional energy sources, wind energy is one of the many alternative energies that have been developed. The utilization of this energy is inseparable from its conversion tool, windmills. One component of the windmill that is quite important is the blade. Blades often experience problems in the form of erosion on the surface due to collisions by particles carried by the wind which can cause the blade function to be not optimal. So, it takes a replacement material that is stronger but lighter, namely composite. The composites used were natural fiber composites (Melaleuca leucadendra-polyester fibers). In this study, the effect of the volume fraction of fiber in the form of shavings on tensile strength, flexibility, and toughness will be investigated. The making of natural fiber composites of Galam Wood (Melaleuca leucadendra) -polyester by mixing resin, catalyst, and Galam Wood fiber in the form of shavings is then printed in a mold that has been coated with aluminum foil. Samples were then tested for tensile strength with ASTM D 638 standard, bending test with ASTM D 790 standard and impact testing under ASTM D 6110 standard. The method used in manufacturing was the hand lay-up method. The result of this study is the optimum value achieved is 70% fiber in all mechanical tests. Obtained tensile strength values of 13.07 MPa, the optimum bending strength of 36.8 MPa and the optimum value of impact strength of 590.39 MPa.
