Normally in engineering, conceptual models provide formal model of the system. Mathematical modeling gives the systematic representation in terms of properties. Modeling process is performed by using design space analysis and mathematical equations and this can be performed with different design alternatives. Conceptual analysis of natural convection is described. In this paper the modeling of heat and mass transfer is performed with the concepts of heat and mass transfer and properties of objects in the design space. Numerical solution has been conducted for energy equation with different boundary conditions. The present work analyses the heat and mass transfer modeling process with mathematical equations.

Molecular dynamics simulation of diffusion welding between aluminum and nickel has been performed and the tensile behavior of the as-welded material has been examined. Two slabs Al-Ni are being contacted directly to introduce diffusion between the two with certain parameters. Diffusion welding was performed at a temperature of 500 K, at the pressure of 10 MPa in the x-direction, and a holding time of 200 ps. The tensile test is performed at a strain value of 2.64e9/s. The results have shown that the displacement of atoms during diffusion welding significantly occurs from the beginning until it reaches about 10 ps. However, the movement of atoms experiencing a plateau stage and less atomic exchange is occurring afterward. nickel slab that has a better strength was able to maintain its fcc crystalline structure during diffusion welding and tensile test than aluminum which has lower strength. The higher melting point of Ni promoting better resistance in the interface to be deformed, while the lower melting point of Al has been promoting better bonding between the two that is promoted by the defects that occur at the interface. During the tensile test, the lower strength of Al made it randomly deformed and crack seems to occur. However, failure of the diffusion-welded Al-Ni has occurred around the interface. The ultimate tensile strength of the diffusion-welded Al-Ni reaches up to 4.166 GPa at a strain value of 0.07128.

In the current pandemic, being able to efficiently stratify patients depending on their probability to develop a severe form of COVID-19 can improve the outcome of treatments and optimize the use of the available resources. To this end, recent studies proposed to use deep-networks to perform automatic stratification of COVID-19 patients based on lung ultrasound (LUS) data. In this work, we present a novel neuro-symbolic approach able to provide video-level predictions by aggregating results from frame-level analysis made by deep-networks. Specifically, a decision tree was trained, which provides direct access to the decision process and a high-level explainability. This approach was tested on 1808 LUS videos acquired from 100 patients diagnosed as COVID-19 positive by a RT-PCR swab test. Each video was scored by LUS experts according to a 4-level scoring system specifically developed for COVID-19. This information was utilised for both the training and testing of the algorithms. A five-folds cross-validation process was utilised to assess the performance of the presented approach and compare it with results achieved by deep-learning models alone. Results show that this novel approach achieves better performance (82% of mean prognostic agreement) than a threshold-based ensemble of deep-learning models (78% of mean prognostic agreement).

Aquaponic Cultivation Technology can be done inside the house or outside the home, this cultivation also produces plants and fish that can be used by the community with urban farming on local food. Aquaponic system fish farming is a culture system that can save land use and increase the efficiency of nutrient utilization from the rest of the feed and fish metabolism. The purpose is to design water temperature sensors on aeroponics and to test temperature sensors by validating others.. The design of an early warning system application due to a landslide there are several stages, namely: first, Designing a DS18B20 sensor on acuponics. Second, Testing the DS18B20. The measurement results will be stored on the scratchpad and read by the device. This sensor can measure temperatures in the range 0 ° -50 ℃. Microcontroller functions as an electronic circuit controller and stores the program in it. Microcontroller is called a single chip because the microcontroller has a memory and I / O devices. The test was carried out using a container containing chunks of ice. The test was carried out safely for 15 minutes and data was taken every minute. Testing the DS18B20 sensor with a comparison sensor found an average error of 0.0409 with a standard deviation of 0.08023. The results of the measurement of small error errors presented that the DS18B20 sensor can be used properly.

This study aims to present the influence of Zinc Oxide (ZnO) filler on the dielectric properties of two types of commercial potting compounds. For this purpose, the methods of dielectric spectroscopy were used to measure the changes in dielectric responses of polyurethane and epoxy by 1.0 wt. % ZnO over the frequency and temperature range, respectively. Two representatives of polyurethane and epoxy mixtures (VUKOL 022 and EPOXYLITE 3750 LV), that are commercially used in industry for filling cavities of all kinds (construction of electrical equipment), were used for this investigation. The ZnO nanoparticles in EPOXYLITE 3750 LV caused an increase, and in VUKOL 022 a decrease of the real permittivity compared to the pure matrix. Its decrease was most likely caused by the presence of highly immobile polyurethane chains in the interfacial regions around nanoparticles. The shift of a low relaxation maximum to higher frequencies for nanocomposite base on EPOXYLITE 3750 LV was affected by a smaller local electric field and electric double layers around the nanoparticles.

Clean water demands in the community that is increasingly rising must be followed by the availability of adequate water. Supply of clean water in the settlements must be provided with the quality that meets the health standards, sufficient quantities, sustainable as well as easy to get and affordable. Efforts in improving the water service especially to customers of PDAM Tirta Daroy in Kutaran and Podiamat, Alue Naga Village Banda Aceh is related with supply and demand method. The research method performed by evaluating the distribution system (supply) and the customers (demand) of the clean water. This research is in the form of data processing of a survey that conducted by adopting ArcGIS 10.3 and Epanet 2.0 software. The purpose of this research is to create a database of distribution network and customer geographically based, evaluation of distribution system and also to analyze the capacity of the distribution towards the distribution of clean water to customers. The results of the study are creation of distribution network and customers of clean water geographically database by adopting software ArcGIS10.3. The evaluation of distribution network installed toward the amount of water demand is evaluated by using software Epanet 2.0. Objects used in this research is 152 junction, 1 reservoir, 173 pipes, and one pump rated flow at the pump curve by 1.64 litre per second tailored to the needs of customers in Kutaran and Podiamat of 1,453 litre/person/second for needs an average of 150 people per litre per day. Pressure on the simulation relatively stable with the smallest value of 2,840 bar, but the level of water supply to customers less than 50% of the amount of water needed by the customer. The flow value of the pipes 150 with a speed of 0.2965 litre per second. On pipes 308 and 206 pipes there is no flow of water because there is no demand at the junction and the upstream end.

Drying is one of the oldest food preservation techniques associated simultaneous heat and mass transfer in order to extend the shelf-life of food materials. However, it is an energy intensive process and consumes about 20-25% of the energy used in the food processing industries. Developing of innovative drying system such as intermittent convective microwave (IMC) and utilization of renewable energy like solar energy in drying can be the potential solution of minimizing consumption of conventional energy in drying process. In this study, an innovative solar energy driven IMC dryer has been designed and fabricated. In addition to this, the effectiveness of this dryer over conventional drying process has been performed. Overall, the developed renewable energy based IMC drying shows better performance in energy consumption and quality aspect of the finish food product.
