Abstract Air Conditioning are major contributors to energy consumption in-suite room Santika Hotel Yogyakarta. A suite room is a choice of rooms with the best facilities compared to other rooms, so comfort is one of the services that must be optimized. The ain is to determine the conduction heat load of various components in the room. Heat conduction load calculation includes heat load through the glass on the east 1253.18 BTU/hr, conduction heat load through the wall to the south 606.14 BTU/hr, solar radiation through glass 1268.48 BTU/hr, heat gain from people 1980 BTU/hr, electrical equipment/lights 2193 BTU/hr and heat gain from ventilation 13053.6 BTU/hr. The total amount of heat gain used in exergy analysis calculation with a value of 3053.16 BTU/hr.

The most of today's global oil production comes from mature fields. Oil companies and governments are both concerned about increasing oil recovery from aging resources. To maintain oil production, the mature field must apply the Enhanced Oil Recovery method.  water-alternating-gas (WAG) injection is an enhanced oil recovery method designed to improve sweep efficiency during  injection with the injected water to control the mobility of . This study will discuss possible corrosion during  and water injection and the casing load calculation along with the production tubing during the injection phase. The following study also performed a suitable material selection for the best performance injection. This research was conducted by evaluating casing integrity for simulate  water-alternating-gas (WAG) to be applied in the X-well in the Y-field, South Sumatra, Indonesia. Corrosion prediction were performed using Electronic Corrosion Engineer (ECE®) corrosion model and for the strength of tubing which included burst, collapse, and tension of production casing was assessed using Microsoft Excel. This study concluded that for the casing load calculation results in 600 psi of burst pressure, collapse pressure of 2,555.64 psi, and tension of 190,528 lbf. All of these results are still following the K-55 production casing rating. While injecting , the maximum corrosion rate occurs. It has a maximum corrosion rate of 2.02 mm/year and a minimum corrosion rate of 0.36 mm/year. With this value, it is above NORSOK Standard M-001 which is 2 mm/year and needs to be evaluated to prevent the rate to remain stable and not decrease in the following years. To prevent the effect of maximum corrosion rate, the casing material must use a SM13CR (Martensitic Stainless Steel) which is not sour service material.

(1) Objective: This study aimed to analyze the effect of ligaments on the strength of functional spine unit (FSU) assessed by finite element (FE) analysis of anatomical models developed from multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT) data. (2) Methods: MDCT scans for cadaveric specimens were acquired from 16 donors (7 males, mean age of 84.29 ± 6.06 years and 9 females, mean age of 81.00 ± 11.52 years). Two sets of FSU models (three vertebrae + two disks), one with and another without (w/o) ligaments, were generated. The vertebrae were segmented semi-automatically, intervertebral disks (IVD) were generated manually, and ligaments were modeled based on the anatomical location. FE-predicted failure loads of FSU models (with and w/o ligaments) were compared with the experimental failure loads obtained from the uniaxial biomechanical test of specimens. (3) Results: The mean and standard deviation of the experimental failure load of FSU specimens was 3513 ± 1029 N, whereas of FE-based failure loads were 2942 ± 943 N and 2537 ± 929 N for FSU models with ligaments and without ligament attachments, respectively. A good correlation (ρ = 0.79, and ρ = 0.75) was observed between the experimental and FE-based failure loads for the FSU model with and with ligaments, respectively. (4) Conclusions: The FE-based FSU model can be used to determine bone strength, and the ligaments seem to have an effect on the model accuracy for the failure load calculation; further studies are needed to understand the contribution of ligaments.

An analysis of the company's existing palletizing process has been performed, and the most appropriate method of process modernization has been selected accordingly. Also, a robot was selected according to the type of container to be palletized and its weight. A prototype of a robot manipulator gripper has been designed. The load calculation of the gripper levers was performed, the pneumatic cylinders for the lever control were selected. Lever strength analysis was also performed. The gripper mass was determined.

Offshore structures floating at sea should use their dynamic positioning (DP) system to maintain position and heading against environmental loads, including wave loads, current loads, and wind loads. It is difficult to calculate environmental loads accurately and quickly, especially for wind loads due to the shielding effect of different parts on offshore structures. To improve the accuracy of wind load calculation, a new method considering shielding effect is proposed. With the new method, calculated wind force becomes much closer to wind tunnel test than the traditional method. As input data of DP capacity analysis, the environmental loads have critical impact on the design of DP system. A static method and a time-domain simulation method of DP capacity are also proposed, and a case study of drillship is carried out. The results of both static analysis and time-domain simulation of DP capacity show that the new wind load calculation method has improved the accuracy of environmental load calculation and DP capacity analysis. Introduction As the offshore oil and gas exploitation is going further into deep sea, offshore structures are to be used in harsh marine environments, including strong wind, current, and waves. Especially for wind, it can make great effect on the dynamic positioning (DP) system of offshore structures, which is designed to maintain position and heading. Once the DP system is not able to keep the offshore structures’ position and heading, it will cause an accident such as oil leakage and oil pollution in the ocean. Because of the wind shielding effect among all parts on offshore structures, such as deckhouse, derricks, cranes, pipe racks, the wind load is difficult to calculate accurately and quickly.
