CV. BJS is a company engaged in the rental of work tools, especially heavy equipment, and serves in the areas of Java, Sumatra, Kalimantan, Sulawesi and Bali. The Work Tools will be sent using company vehicles. The problem that arises from the delivery process is the unknown presence of delivery vehicles from both the company and the customer side, so customers often complain because there is no certainty about the arrival of the heavy equipment being rented.
In this study, 2 applications have been made that can answer company problems. The first application, also known as administrative application, is made for administrative processes that are web-based and will be accessed by internal companies and customers. The second application, an Android-based application used by heavy equipment deliverers, will inform the whereabouts of the vehicle through CouchDB technology which is also used to provide real-time tracking and monitoring of the system.

This research was conducted at PT Tri Sapta Jaya, a medical equipment distributor company. The product distribution to consumers was inefficient due to using traditional methods. The division of regions and determination of delivery routes was based on districts and cities. The existing delivery method faced various challenges, including delivery delays and inefficient routes. This inefficiency results in potential financial losses for the company in terms of delivery costs. To assist the company in improving delivery efficiency, this research focuses on determining vehicle routes considering vehicle capacity (Capacity Vehicle Routing Problem). In solving and searching for solutions, the research uses Simulated-Annealing algorithm. The algorithm generated an initial solution randomly and improved the solution by changing the positions of consumers within a route and switching positions of consumers between routes to obtain the best solution. The computation time of the developed Simulated Annealing algorithm was quite efficient, taking only 2 seconds for 25 consumers. Based on the data from PT Tri Sapta Jaya, the best solution obtained was 615,319. This result was achieved using the Simulated Annealing algorithm with the parameters T0 = 100,000, Ta = 1, and α = 0.9.

This article highlights that companies find that “product lifecycle management” can mean steering through the regulatory tangle of their business. The automotive industry is particularly affected by changing legislation, because many automakers are now working to ensure that their vehicles comply with the End-of-Life Vehicle Directive passed by the European Union in 2000. The End-of-Life Vehicle Directive is only one of the rules and regulations in Europe. The EU’s Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive set environmental targets for the amount of hazardous materials that can be contained in electrical and electronic equipment. Sometimes an engineer can’t simply call up a CAD file for a part, because the company gets that part from a supplier and incorporates it into the final product. In these cases, it's vital to ensure that those parts meet vital standards. Ensuring that engineering products meet the plethora of existing codes and laws is a perplexing and complex task that is only going to get harder.

The evaluation was carried out to determine the skills of emergency response handling by public freight drivers to vehicle damage so that it can be used to improve the ability of public freight drivers to anticipate emergency response. Location of survey survey is in Jakarta and surrounding areas. The sampling technique used in this study is non probability sampling and Purposive Sampling. The study results showed that more than 50% of public freight drivers do all tasks of delivering goods such as driving, cleaning vehicles, maintaining vehicles, supervising the process of loading/unloading and maintaining cargo. The most common types of vehicle damage experienced by public freight drivers are broken tires, transmission system disturbances and brake system disturbances. Public freight drivers tend to repair damage from broken tires, transmission system disturbances, brake system disturbances themselves, whereas to repair damaged axles and engine damage, drivers tend to contact the nearest repair shop and/or contact the company. The evaluation results show the need to improve the driver's ability in emergency response related to vehicle conditions such as inspection of vehicle equipment, vehicle loading procedures, tire burst, transmission system disturbances, brake system disturbances.

The service business in Indonesia is growing every year and competition is getting tougher. One of the service businesses that is always growing is motor vehicle repair service. So that the vehicle service company must make service improvements to be able to compete. For this reason, the company needs to know the service performance so that the company must know the advantages and disadvantages of the services provided to customers. The purpose of this study is to measure the performance of vehicle service quality and determine service improvement priorities in increasing customer satisfaction and loyalty. The method used in this research is service quality and Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP). The results of the study were to obtain 21 service attributes obtained from interviews. Then from the results of processing with the service quality method, it turns out that there is a gap in service quality based on perceptions and expectations because it is negative. So all the existing service attributes need to be improved. Meanwhile, the results of determining priorities that need to be improved on the 21 service attributes using the AHP method show that the mechanical speed attribute in car service is the first priority because it has the largest weight, namely 0.107. Then the service attribute that gets the last priority to be repaired is the equipment and equipment attribute with the smallest weight of 0.02 because the current dealer already has a fairly complete vehicle service tool.

Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) is a Key Performance Indicator (KPI), which describes the efficiency of using technical resources. The index allows improving the efficiency of the production process, and also reflects the potential of the unused production capacity. In the presented case, new possibilities were proposed for the application of this model in public transport. First, the theoretical foundations of machine reliability, as well as the principles of comprehensive maintenance were presented. This discussion presents how to implement the OEE index to assess the effectiveness of vehicle use in a public transport company. Weaknesses were identified in the use of vehicles and changes were proposed to improve the OEE index.

Full textAbstract:
The Radiodetermination Satellite Service (RDSS) provides radiolocation and limited communication for users of aeronautical, marine and terrestrial vehicles. A system of the RDSS is being developed in the United States by the Geostar Corporation (Rothblatt, 1988). In this system signals from a control center are transmitted to transceivers on users’ vehicles through one of a series of two or three satellites spaced along the geostationary orbit, and responses are received through each of these satellites. If three satellites are used, locations of vehicles can be determined from the measured times of transmission from the control center to the user and back via different satellite paths. If two satellites are used the timing data must be supplemented by information such as altitude data from a terrain map, or an altimeter reading from the user’s vehicle, which can be encoded in the response transmitted back. Computation of the vehicle location is performed at the control center. The equipment at the vehicle can be relatively simple since its basic function is that of a transponder, and intervention by the vehicle operator is not necessarily required. However, provision can also be made for the inclusion of short coded messages from the vehicle, so the unit on the vehicle is usually referred to as a transceiver. The system is designed to meet the needs of various users; for example, trucking companies which must periodically monitor the locations of vehicles in a widely distributed fleet. Position information can be relayed to the company headquarters as well as to the vehicle operator. The role played by the central control computer in determining the locations requires that all vehicles using the service identify themselves by a transmitted code. Thus developers and operators of RDSS systems can lease their services to vehicle users.

The problem that remained unsolved is that the real status of the equipment can not be collected in real time and it results the different statuses between the equipment and the equipment management information system (EMIS). The problem can be solved through the application of the Internet of things. A wireless sensor network was established to monitor the equipment status on the shop floor in real time. It was managed by a management server. The management server was connected to the Intranet of the company to communicate with the EMIS. In this way an Internet of things was formed to ensure synchronous status information transmission between the equipment and the EMIS. This system has been used in a large-scale vehicle manufacturing plant. The significant efforts have been made.

Full textAbstract:
In this Chapter, we consider a microgrid with a certain number of distributed energy resources (DER) components connected to an office building (in a university campus) provided with electricity by a utility company. We develop the initial version of the energy management system which is responsible for the optimal energy scheduling of the microgrid’s distributed energy resources. These resources include a photovoltaic (PV) installation, a Storage Energy System (ESS), a small Combined Heat and Power (CHP) unit, and a fleet of electric vehicles (EVs) used for work-related trips. The mobility behavior of the EVs fleet is modeled considering deterministic realizations of the probabilistic distributions used for the arrival/departure, and the time EVs remain parked. To investigate the impact of renewable generation and load unpredictability on the energy management system (EMS) operation, PV production and electric load are modeled under uncertainty using actual smart meters data for the scenarios formulation. We also assume that each DER component, through an EMS, can communicate and control the power exchange from and towards this component and that, two way communication with the utility company can be reached through aggregators using advanced metering equipment. We also consider a simplified thermal model that provides a specific level of thermal comfort to the building’s occupants, by meeting the predicted heating load. The energy produced by the DERs can be sold back to the grid by the microgrid manager and/or it can be stored for future utilization.

Abstract The gas-oil ratio (GOR) is one of the critical properties of the oil produced from a reservoir that is subject to development, study and monitoring. Sheshmaoil Management Company LLC (Republic of Tatarstan) employs a portable metering unit of UZGF-1-4.0 type to determine the GOR in oil, as well as the flow rates of oil and water [1–3]. The measurement technique has been certified and included in the State Register of the Russian Federation under the No. MN 759-2017. This unit's drawback is the placement of the measuring instruments on a semi-trailer, which requires a truck to transport it. N 2016, the engineers of Department for Innovations and Examinations were assigned the task to develop a portable metering unit that could be installed on the chassis of a UAZ-type vehicle. In 2019, a Well Stream Metering Unit (BIPS) was developed and tested (Fig. 1). The BIPS consists of 0.05 m3 metering tank (separator) with an upper feed of well products through the DN 50 line (Fig. 2). The fluid is drained from the tank via the bottom line DN 50. The BIPS is almost three times smaller than the UZGF unit in terms of overall dimensions, therefore it is used on the UAZ car chassis (Fig.3).

In the last 7 significant accidents on the railways in GB there have been 60 passenger fatalities. 14 of these have been caused by ejection (passengers being thrown from the train during the course of the collision). One additional fatality was attributed to an object entering the carriage through the train window. In total there have been 26 ejections with over 50% resulting in fatality. The trend has been towards higher speed incidents involving vehicles overturning. The authority responsible for setting Safety Standards and, conducting research on behalf of the Train Operators and Stakeholders in GB’s railways is the Rail Safety and Standards Board (RSSB). They initiated a multi faceted stream of research to investigate the performance of glazed systems in train incidents. The aim of the research was to identify and establish measures which replicate the conditions to which glazed systems may be subject to in collision conditions and to formulate corresponding performance requirements designed to prevent passenger ejection. The research was phased and entailed the following: • Accident investigation and analysis, detailed vehicle examination. • Review of 600 passenger witness statements, obtained by British Transport Police. • Generation of computer models using the MADYMO code and Side Impact Dummy (SID) to model the overturning event in a variety of conditions. • Postulation of events and measures based on analysis. • Proposed test programme. • Construction of new test apparatus. • Construction of existing glazed units — benchmarking process. • Construction of glazed units of improved design utilising different glass specifications and laminations but capable of being fitted into existing frames. • Testing, reporting, stakeholder reviews and the production of a new equipment standard for glass in railway vehicles. The research team was keen to include a glazing company capable of providing the highest level of technical support. Independent Glass, a Scottish company had been making significant strides in improving the penetration performance of glazed units (especially at the extremes of ambient temperature conditions) was chosen to produce glass samples for the project. A significant amount of testing was undertaken at their premises in Glasgow. Additionally the new tests were undertaken which demonstrate improved penetration resistance by heavy objects and improved passenger containment. This research has been embedded in the proposed new RSSB standard “GM/RT 2100” [1] which has developed a new scenario based sequential testing regime for glazed laminated systems in railway vehicles. This paper will inform the audience of these new requirements and the research which led to its introduction. It will show the testing that has been undertaken from the perspective of the glazing manufacturer and will detail the equipment that is required to be able to perform these new tests. It will comment on the cost and mass implications of fitting these new glazing units to vehicles in GB and the safety benefit of doing so. Toughened windows are still being used by some train operators for emergency egress; however most operators are now converting their vehicles to having entirely laminated units in vehicles. This is not the subject of this paper.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Sediment plumes are a key issue in assessing the environmental impact of seabed mining. The Metals Company carried out a pilot Nodule Collector test in the NORI-D license area in late 2022. The equipment test was closely monitored in the nearfield from the Allseas test mining vessel and in the far field from a dedicated monitoring vessel. The monitoring program was designed to quantify the concentration of sediment returned to the sea at a mid-water discharge point, as well as the sediment disturbed by the Prototype Collector Vehicle at the seabed. The monitoring efforts were aimed at providing baseline data as well as observing the concentration, movement and settling of the plume. All monitoring efforts were supported by numerical modelling, which was used to inform the best monitoring locations as well as the conditions expected during the testing of the collector vehicle. Following a comprehensive planning phase, decisions on monitoring methods and equipment and their deployment were described in detailed SOPs for all field work to ensure consistency of all measurements. This included details of instrument configurations and deployment strategies for fixed and mobile monitoring platforms. However, complex field operations are almost impossible to plan down to the minute and a degree of flexibility is required to ensure optimal use of the campaign. The realized monitoring strategy reflected the basic guiding principles detailed in the SOPs adapted to logistical circumstances encountered in the field, This is particularly important to allow comparisons between different types of analyses, including the interpretation of analyses of individual water samples. In this paper we will present the monitoring strategy and plan developed by DHI in collaboration with The Metals Company. We will also present the different components of the monitoring (mobile assets such as AUV/ROV), fixed stations (mooring lines and landers), water and sediment sampling that were used during the campaign. Recent experiences of tracking and observing plumes with acoustic instrumentation mounted on remotely operated vehicles (ROV), autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV), static seabed landers, and oceanographic moorings will be presented. Specifically, this presentation will discuss:The value of predictive modelling prior to the start of trials, with the objective of monitoring where significant plume was to be expectedHow differences between predictive modelling and real-time observations influenced short-term monitoring strategiesKey challenges related to instrument performance at extreme depths, mobile monitoring platforms, and simultaneous monitoring operations

The design and development of internal combustion engines, and by extension of complete powertrains for ground vehicles, constitute a particularly complex, costly and time consuming task. As a result, numerical simulation is now commonly used by engine manufacturers and vehicle designers in addition to test bench experiments. Engine simulation codes can be divided into three main categories, with very different objectives and levels of complexity: CFD codes, thermodynamic codes and real time codes. This paper presents the MERIMEE simulation code, which belongs to the second category (MERIMEE is the French acronym for Computer Research and Study Model for Engines and their Equipment). Jointly developed by Ecole Centrale de Nantes (for the models) and the CS-SI Company (for the software development) it is used by ETAS (French Army) for the development and study of complete powertrains designed for military ground propulsion. The main models used to simulate the engine behavior are first briefly described. Then, the software architecture, the interface as well as the programming and numerical aspects are described. Finally, some significant results are shown and compared with experimental data. They deal with steady state and transient engine behavior in addition to the evaluation of pollutant emissions.

On the cost side of vehicular electrical distribution cabling, the project has the potential to bring a great financial return, as it is not uncommon for the responsible company, be it the supplier or Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), to err on the side of caution and oversize the project. This approach is often taken as a preventive measure to mitigate any potential design problems that may arise from a leaner design.

Full textAbstract:
"The future trends of the automotive industry include a higher usage of Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS), and the revolution regarding autonomous vehicles. That means an increase of the volume of data necessary for all these systems to work together. Due to the communication necessities of these systems, automotive ethernet has been primarily used in all vehicles. This technology adapts the common ethernet so the requirements of the automotive industry can be met. The automotive ethernet uses a physical layer standard, which is the BroadR-Reach. This technology gives the possibility for multiple systems in the same vehicle to simultaneously communicate and access information. Automated test equipment using BroadR-Reach protocol are scarce in the market, and do not have the ability for parallel tests for multiple devices, specially when the purpose is to perform network communication tests. To overcome this obstacle, multiple network converters would need to exist on the testing system, increasing its wiring complexity. To overcome these problems, Controlar has developed BRidge4Net, an innovative product which consists in a device with multiple network converters from common ethernet to BroadR-Reach. In this way, this device can be used in different testing stations (Burn-In, End of Line, In-Circuit Test, …), where multiple equipment using the BroadR-Reach protocol can be simultaneously tested. The BRidge4Net system is the first converter of 100BASE-TX and 100BASE-T1 existing on the market that enables the simultaneous test of multiple devices using BroadR-Reach protocol. This product reduced the necessary wiring for this task, while reducing the test system complexity and the possibility of errors in the diagnosis. BRidge4Net has four converters in only one Printed Circuit Board (PCB) and can be combined in a modular solution with the maximum capacity of 60 converters distributed in 15 PCBs. BRidge4Net has been validated for a Full-Duplex transmission with a speed of 100 Mbit/s. The upgraded BRidge4Net version for the 1 Gbit/s transmission is currently under development. It also features communication with the PHYs to enable internal diagnosis on the link status and quality. This product has been launched in the 2nd trimester of 2019 by Controlar, having been integrated in several projects developed in the company, showing great results in real industrial environment."

<div class="section abstract"><div class="htmlview paragraph">The automotive industry has been funding warranty repair work for many decades. The most common vehicle warranty is 3 years or 36,000 miles [<span class="xref">1</span>]. Original equipment manufacturers (OEM) in North America have dealers record all the work completed and submit claims for the work that qualifies for warranty reimbursement [<span class="xref">2</span>]. The OEM reviews the request and pays dealers for the work performed. In addition to payments, the database is also used to complete quality analysis for the vehicles. Often the software being used by dealerships is old and not designed for quality analysis. Reviewing all the warranty work done can be an arduous task. OEMs can receive 100,000 or more claims each day. To speed up the analysis process the OEMs will divide the repair work into sections based on the segment of the vehicle requiring work. This categorization allows the OEMs to spread the work across many experts in the company. But what does the OEMs do when the problem cannot be located at the dealership? The dealer still requires payment for the time they spent trying to find the issue. This is often categorized as TNF (trouble not found). This type of work without a resolution can account for a sizable percentage of warranty costs! It can be as high as 38% depending on the manufacturer. It can also affect customer satisfaction and customer loyalty. In fact, one of the most common complaints submitted to NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) is “dealer unable to locate problem” [<span class="xref">3</span>]. To make matters worse, most customers end up returning to the dealer multiple times before the issue is, if ever, located, and fixed [<span class="xref">4</span>]. So how can we find a better way to analyze these warranty claims and improve the customer experience while decreasing the cost for the OEM? This problem can be improved through machine learning and statistical pattern analysis.</div></div>

Full textAbstract:
This paper presents experimental results carried out to develop co-relation and comparison between vehicle and stationary dynamometer-engine emissions with same engines specifications and brands. The dynamometer-engine has been setup with same load and speed as the vehicle’s engine which is carried on the road. The vehicle’s road load power carried by engine has been calculated and used in this investigation. The stationary engine’s rotational speed has been converted to linear distance to compare specific fuel consumptions (SFC) with real specific fuel consumption (SFC) of the vehicle on the road. The vehicle has been run on road test at 70km/h, 90 km/h and 100 km/h for 100 km each time to measure fuel consumption. Beside this, both the engine and vehicle have been operated in idling condition to measure fuel consumption, CO and HC emissions. Proton vehicle with magma engine (4 cylinders) has been used in this investigation. Both the engine and vehicle have been retrofitted for two fuels namely gasoline fuel and compressed natural gas (CNG). An eddy current dynamometer model Froude Consine (model AG150) is used to test the engine. All the electronic equipment, together with its manipulative controls and indicators such as thermocouples are mounted on ‘CP Cadet10 (UK)’ engine control unit. The engine control unit can control any speed and load applied to the dynamometer-engine. An autocheck model (974/5) and Bacharach model CA300NSX analyzers (standard version, k-type probe) have been used to measure the concentration CO and HC emissions. The results of this investigation will be used to predict the emissions and fuel consumption for road vehicles from stationary dynamometer–engine test.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract This paper will cover the recent implementation of a new end-to-end Production & Energy Loss Accounting (PELA) system at three separate sites of a major refining and petrochemicals company in the Middle East. It describes the development of practical tools, governance structure, training of relevant staff, embedding and evolving of the associated Management Operating System (MOS) and some of the early benefits achieved. The new system includes customized software tools providing shift operators in each process with real-time information about production and energy losses in the main value drivers: asset utilization, product quality, reprocessing, equipment efficiencies, flaring, etc. The tools allow immediate assignment of standardized "cause categories" for later aggregation and analysis. A separate data compilation and visualization tool was also developed, along with work processes to support deviation analysis and decision making. More than a hundred technical staff across the three sites received training and a weekly meeting cadence was established for maximum leverage from this initiative. This PELA system successfully covers 21 separate process areas. It led to confirmed savings of 7.9 MMUS$ in the first year alone, by wiring the organization for continuous improvement and providing greater transparency for staff and management alike. PELA serves as a vehicle for change by driving awareness of the front-line staff and ensuring better cooperation between them, process engineers, maintenance, and production planning. The success of such a program relies on lean skills, analytical capabilities, expertise in change management, and strong leadership within the line.

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of the paper is to describe a mobile cementation facility (MCF), which was designed by VUJE, Inc. and by JAVYS, Inc. (Nuclear and Decommissioning Company) in 2003. MCF was constructed and installed in 2004 in the so-called garden nearby A-1 NPP in Jaslovske Bohunice, where underground storage tanks for liquid radioactive waste are located. The facility is designed to process liquid radioactive waste and sludge or gravel collected from the underground tanks. These storage tanks are situated in the vicinity of active water treatment plant belonging to A-1 NPP. The tanks, some of which are of diameter 16 m, have their internal complex structure. All tanks were designed to collect various liquid waste streams from the A-1 NPP reactor building. Special remotely controlled DENAR 41 manipulator was developed. for the collection of liquid waste as well as for other purposes (collection of solid waste, decontamination, cutting of internal pipelines, etc.) The unique mobile equipment, which carries a suitable pump for sludge pumping to the cementation facility, was used to collect sludge last year. Large diameter of the storage tanks and small hatchways for the inspection access (approximately 540 × 540 mm) through which the telescopic mast of manipulator DENAR 41 or the special mobile vehicle were inserted into the tanks proved to pose some difficulties while being at use. Standard ISO containers, in which the main components are installed, were designed and used for the MCF project. The whole equipment is relatively easy to transport and can be installed to any other tanks with stored liquid waste. In-drum mixing technology is applied during cementation process. Standard 200 litre drums with the cement product are the only outputs form the mobile cementation facility. Production of 200 litre drums with the cemented product gradually increased from 19 pieces per year in 2005 to 88 pieces last year in 2008. Several problems particularly in the cement dosing system as well as problems in monitoring and measurement system with occasional failures in control system appeared amidst MCF operation. However these issues were always operatively resolved and the cementation facility could successfully met desired expectations.

Survey vehicles, operating at traffic-speed, are deployed across the road network to assess the condition of road pavements. These apply high-quality (and high cost) equipment to measure condition. However, significant progress has been made in the development of low-cost sensors and data collection units that may have potential for application in highways. This project has aimed to understand the capabilities of this emerging technology. The project explores the technologies and combines a Raspberry-Pi based Data Acquisition System, compact camera, GPS, inertial measurement system, Wifi and 4G GSM comms and a low-cost Solid State LiDAR into a prototype device. The total cost is a few hundred pounds. Trials characterise the prototype system. Although the solid-state LiDAR sensors are not found to be robust in this application, the remaining sensors show strong potential for use in road condition assessment. A wider trial of the prototype system in a potential application – the measurement of roughness (IRI) on developing world road networks – was carried out in El Salvador. The prototype shows comparable performance with alternatives, combined with higher levels of practicality and capability, and the potential for higher levels of consistency through a common low-cost measurement platform. In the light of this research, it is felt that, following refinements to the prototype, the initial application for the device would be for condition surveys in developing world nations.
