The department extends congratulations to all graduates and wishes them success in their future endeavors, further studies, and professional pursuits.
Professor Chettiyappan Visvanathan (Visu) was invited to deliver a lecture and presentation on “Plastic Waste Data Collection: Current Practices, Key Challenges, and Strategies.” He also participated in the second session’s panel discussion titled “Formal and Informal Waste Management: Working on the Ground and Overcoming Challenges” at the workshop titled “Strategies for Plastic Waste Data Collection and Management: Foundations for National and City Action Plans.” This workshop was organized by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) in collaboration with the Coordinating Body on the Seas of East Asia (COBSEA) at the Holiday Inn on Sukhumvit Road.
Professor Chettiyappan also presented a research project affiliated with Mahidol University concerning plastic waste management in Thailand. Additionally, he highlighted ongoing research activities in collaboration with the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP).
This workshop was specifically tailored for government agencies in Indonesia, the Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam, as part of the ADB’s Technical Assistance program aimed at promoting actions against plastic pollution entering the seas. The event attracted more than 50 attendees.
Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Mahidol University extends heartfelt congratulations to the fourth-year students of the department who have been invited to participate in the Introducing and Demonstrating Earthquake Engineering Research in Schools (IDEERS 2023) competition organized by the National Center for Research on Earthquake Engineering (NCREE) in Taipei City, Taiwan.

ABSTRACT
This study investigates the ballistic performance of aluminium alloy Al7075-T6 and magnesium alloy AZ31B served as the intermediate layer in triple-layered metal-laminate panel using computational method. Aluminium and magnesium alloys offer a considerably potential for reducing the weight of an armoured vehicle body due to low densities and high energy absorption capabilities. The poor ballistic performance of these materials can
be improved by layering with the high strength steel. A commercial explicit finite element code was implemented to develop triple-layered panels impacted by a 7.62 mm armour piercing projectile at velocity range of 900 to 950 m/s. Two models were constructed where aluminium alloy and magnesium alloy served as intermediate layer in the first model and the second model respectively. The ballistic performance of each model in terms of ballistic limit velocity and depth of penetration was evaluated. Considering the 25% existing armour vehicle weight reduction, it was found that magnesium alloy has equivalent ballistic limit to that of aluminium alloy which is at 1020 m/s. At the standard projectile velocity, aluminium stopped the projectile at 24 mm depth and magnesium stopped at 25 mm. Thus, lightweight materials can be suitable combinations for designing lighter
armoured vehicle panel without neglecting its ballistic performance.
Keywords: Armour piercing projectile; ballistic limit; depth of penetration; finite element; lightweight material.
