Introduction: Demonstration of the access cavity preparation procedures to dental students is challenging due to the limited operating field and detailed nature of the procedures. It is especially difficult to visualize how instruments are functioning inside the pulp space. The aim of this study was to develop and compare two different views of video demonstration in teaching access cavity preparation. Materials and Methods: Two videos of access cavity preparation were filmed, showing occlusal view of a whole tooth (WT) and sagittal view of a sectioned tooth (ST). Using quasirandomization, third year dental students (n=57) were divided into two groups to watch either one of the videos. The perception and performance of both groups were compared using Mann-Whitney U test and Fisher exact test. Results: At baseline, group WT (n=29) and group ST (n=28) were not significantly different in terms of operative scores (p=0.330). After watching the videos, the basic understanding of the theories were similar between both groups. However, ST responded more positively towards the helpfulness of the video in visualizing the inner anatomy of the tooth and in implementing the procedures (p<0.05). ST also completed the exercise within a shorter time (p<0.001). Nevertheless, the quality of the prepared access cavities was not significantly different between groups. Conclusion(s): Using sagittal view of sectioned tooth in video demonstration of access cavity preparation can improve students learning and performance speed. We highly recommend showing the sagittal view of sectioned tooth in video demonstration of access cavity preparation.

Early stage of engine valvetrain noise improvement involves the implementation of Design of Experiment (DOE) specifically the Taguchi methodology to identify the optimum valvetrain parameters which resulted in significant noise improvement. The parameters are consist of seven controlled factors such as cylinder head tappet bore diameter, mechanical tappet diameter, valve spring load, camshaft exhaust and intake waviness together with tappet exhaust and intake clearance. The confirmation run which was previously completed yields the valvetrain noise level at 67.07db SPL by 1 meter distance in completed vehicle during idling condition. In order to satisfy the final quality of the optimal valvetrain, a test is carried out to validate the performance curve on a dynamometer according to benchmark specification. The objective of the test is to validate the optimal valvetrain based on the experimental result which minimum manufacturing target shall be achieved to indicate that the engine is operated within its intended design. The performance test was conducted at the manufacturing plant on an eddy current dynamometer which runs for 11 hours. As results, the performance are within the standard with approximate increased by 6.9% as compared with baseline valvetrain and confirmed by several follow-up tests made on the improved valvetrain. In order to verify and address the main engine output of the optimal valvetrain, brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC) and emissions test results are then presented at the end of this paper.

This work investigated waste plastic pyrolysis oil (WPPO), 2-ethyl hexyl nitrate (EHN), and ethanol as sources of renewable energy, blending conventional diesel (CD), WPPO, and ethanol with EHN was to improve the combustion and performance characteristics of the WPPO blends. EHN has the potential to reduce emissions of CO, CO2, UHC, NOX, and PM. Ethanol improves viscosity, miscibility, and the oxygen content of WPPO. Mixing ratios were 50/WPPO25/E25, 60/WPPO20/E20, 70/WPPO15/E15, 80/WPPO10/E10, and 90/WPPO5/E5 for CD, waste plastic pyrolysis oil, and ethanol, respectively. The mixing ratio of EHN (0.01%) was based on the total quantity of blended fuel. Performance and emission characteristics of a stationary 4-cylinder water-cooled diesel Iveco power generator were evaluated with ASTM standards. At 1000 rpm, the BSFC was 0.043 kg/kWh compared to CD at 0.04 kg/kWh. Blend 90/WPPO5/E5 had the highest value of 14% for BTE, while the NOX emissions for 90/WPPO5/E5, 80/WPPO10/E10, and 70/WPPO15/E15 were 384, 395, and 414 ppm, respectively, compared to CD fuel at 424 ppm. This is due to their densities of 792 kg/m3, 825 kg/m3 which are close to CD fuel at 845 kg/m3 and the additive EHN. These results show blends of WPPO, ethanol and EHN reduce emissions, and improve engine performance, mimicking CD fuel.

The determination of reliable geotechnical parameters from laboratory testing is highly dependent on sample quality. Over the past decades, undisturbed sampling of soft sensitive clays has been performed using various apparatuses and procedures. This paper outlines details of the design and performance of a new Laval-type tube sampler employed for the investigation of five soft clay sites located in Finland. The investigation was conducted using the new tube sampler and two different piston samplers. The sample quality was evaluated based on the recompression volume during reconsolidation to the in situ effective stress in constant-rate-of-strain oedometer tests. Test results show that tube samples are generally characterized by higher quality, especially in low-plasticity clays. In particular, the quality of piston samples is highly affected by the apparatus condition and sampling operations. Furthermore, the influence of storage time on tube samples was investigated. To guarantee a proper confinement, and thus reduce swelling, a pressurized system was applied to the tube samples obtained in two soft clay sites. Results demonstrate that the sample quality is not significantly affected by storage time as long as the soil is properly stored in the tube.

PT Semen Padang is a company that produces cement and it can not be separated from issues related to the effectiveness of the machinery/ equipment caused by factors such as six big losses. It can be indicated from the frequency of damage caused to machinery/ equipment because of the damage so that production targets are not achieved. Another result of damage caused by machinery/ equipment is the quality of products where the products are not meet the quality standards. Therefore, it is necessary to measure effective and efficient in the maintenance of machinery/equipment int term of solving such problems. TPM is a method which developed in Japan that can be applied to improve the productivity and efficiency of production. The applied method is one of useful methods to mantain machinery/equipment utilization including, losses that called by the six big losses. One goal of TPM is to increase the effectiveness to improve function and performance of machinery/ equipment used and reduce the six big losses contained in the machine/ equipment. Study has been conductedin W1 and W2 Kiln engine on Indarung Factory II / III PT Semen Padang. The first stage is measuring the effectiveness of W1 and W2 Kiln machine using OEE method. Furthermore, we are y measure OEE Six Big Losses and another losses that lead to the low efficiency of the Kiln machine. The data has been collected based on year 2013. Result showed that the value of OEE in W1 kiln ranged from 49% to 96%. While the value of OEE in W2 kiln ranged from 60% to 98% . It is related to the level of availability W1 kiln (average 92%) were also quite low when it is compared to the level of availability W2 kiln (average 94%) due to the length of time the kiln W1 engine damage. Refer to the value of the performance rate W1 and W2 kiln, it can be concluded that the average value of both engine performance rate is almost the same, ranging between 91% and 92%. Analysis of OEE Six Big Lossesshowed that cause of low OEE on kiln machine is breakdown loss. It also affected the reduced speed loss.Keyword : OEE, Six Big Losses, Availability, Performance Rate, Quality RateAbstrakPT Semen Padang merupakan sebuah perusahaan yang memproduksi semen juga tidak terlepas dari masalah yang berkaitan dengan efektivitas mesin/peralatan yang diakibatkan oleh faktor six big losses tersebut. Hal ini dapat terlihat dari frekuensi kerusakan yang terjadi pada mesin/peralatan karena kerusakan tersebut sehingga target produksi tidak tercapai. Akibat lain yang ditimbulkan kerusakan mesin/peralatan yaitu dalam hal kualitas produk yang dihasilkan dimana produk yang tidak sesuai dengan standar kualitas akan dioleh kembali. Oleh karena itu diperlukan langkah-langkah efektif dan efisien dalam pemeliharaan mesin/peralatan untuk dapat menanggulangi dan mencegah masalah tersebut. TPM adalah salah satu metode yang dikembangkan di Jepang yang dapat digunakan untuk meningkatkan produktivitas dan efisiensi produksi perusahaan dengan menggunakan mesin/peralatan secara efektif. Tidak tepatnya penanganan dan pemeliharaan mesin/peralatan tidak hanya menyebabkan masalah kerusakan saja, tetapi juga kerugian lain yang disebut dengan six big losses. Salah satu tujuan TPM adalah untuk meningkatkan efektivitas dengan cara meningktaan fungsi dan kinerja mesin/peralatan yang digunakan dan mengeliminasi six big losses yang terdapat pada mesin/peralatan. Objek yang diteliti pada penelitian ini adalah mesin Kiln W1 dan W2 yang terdapat pada Pabrik Indarung II/III PT Semen Padang. Tahapan pertama dalam usaha peningkatan efisiensi produksi pada perusahaan ini adalah dengan melakukan pengukuran efektivitas mesin Kiln W1 dan W2 dengan menggunakan metode OEE yang kemudian dilanjutkan dengan pengukuran OEE Six Big Losses dan dari faktor six big losses tersebut dicari faktor terbesar yang mengakibatkan rendahnya efisiensi mesin Kiln. Data yang digunakan adalah data satu tahun terakhir yaitu Bulan JanuariDesember 2013. Selama periode tersebut, diperoleh nilai OEE pada kiln W1 berkisar antara 49% hingga 96%. Sedangkan nilai OEE mesin kiln W2 berkisar antara 60% hingga 98%. Hal ini berhubungan dengan tingkat availability mesin kiln W1 (rata-rata 92%) yang juga cukup rendah bila dibandingkan dengan tingkat availability mesin kiln W2 (rata-rata 94%) dikarenakan lamanya waktu kerusakan mesin kiln W1. Bila dilihat dari nilai performance efficiency mesin kiln W1 dan W2, maka dapat disimpulkan bahwa nilai rata-rata performance efficiency kedua mesin ini hampir sama, yaitu berkisar antara 91% dan 92%. Bila dilakukan analisa OEE Six Big Losses, maka yang menjadi penyebab rendahnya OEE pada mesin kiln ini adalah waktu kerusakan mesin yang tergolong dalam frekuensi sering. Hal ini juga berimbas pada penurunan kecepatan kerja mesin kiln.Kata Kunci : OEE, Six Big Loss, Availability, Performance Rate, Quality Rate

The integrity and performance of brush seals have been established. Severe bench and engine tests have shown high initial wear or rub-in rates, material smearing at the interface, and bristle and rub-runner wear, but the brush seals did not fail. Short-duration (46 hr) experimental T-700 engine testing of the compressor discharge seal established over 1-percent engine performance gain (brush versus labyrinth). Long-term gains were established only as leakage comparisons, with the brush at least 20 percent better at controlling leakage. Long-term materials issues, such as wear and ultimately seal life, remain to be resolved. Future laeeds are cited for materials and analysis tools that account for heat generation, thermomechanical behavior, and tribological pairing to enable original equipment manufacturers to design high-temperature, high-surface-speed seals with confidence.
