The aerodynamic parameters of a preliminary IIUM low speed winged-hull airship design is investigated. The objective is to study the aerodynamic parameters of the wingedhull airship and to find the necessities of attaching wings to the existing IIUM low speed airship. The research methodology involved the use of numerical simulation and laboratory

Ganoderma boninense (G. boninense) infection reduces the productivity of oil palms and causes a serious threat to the palm oil industry. This catastrophic disease ultimately destroys the basal tissues of oil palm, causing the eventual death of the palm. Early detection of G. boninense is vital since there is no effective treatment to stop the conti

Carotenoids can be obtained naturally from several sources like fruits, algae, plants, and crustaceans, contributing to varying red or yellow pigmentation. Carotenoids are acyclic substances having several transformations, leading to more than 800 compounds derived by the addition of oxygen-abundant functional groups or end group cyclisation. Hence

The aim of this study was to examine the effect of resonant breathing biofeedback training for reducing stress among manufacturing operators. Resonant breathing biofeedback works by teaching people to recognize their involuntary heart rate variability and to control patterns of this physiological response. Thirty-six female operators from an electr

Context: Andrographis paniculata Nees. (Acanthaceae) is an annual herbaceous plant widely cultivated in southern Asia, China, and Europe. It is used in the treatment of skin infections in India, China, and Malaysia by folk medicine practitioners. Objective: Antifungal activity of the whole plant extracts and isolation of active principles from A. p

As time passed, Arabic Language has become a worldwide language which it has become one of the five most spoken language in the world. Among them is Malaysia, where Arabic Language is widely taught in schools and universities. Especially we can see the widespread use of Arabic Language in the mass media of Malaysia and constantly relate with religi

This study evaluates how the electrical characteristics of potassium sodium niobate, K0.5Na0.5NbO3 (KNN) thin film, are affected by yttrium doping. For the KNN thin films doped with yttrium, the secondary phase was not observed, which means that the films preserved the orthorhombic lattice. Yttrium doping affected the grain structure where microsco

The objective of this research is recovery of squalene from palm fatty acid distillate (PFAD) using supercritical fluid extraction (SFE). The extraction process was performed by using the SFE and recovered squalene was analyzed from total lipid extracts using HPLC. A central composite design was used to study the effect of SFE variables namely pres

Previous studies have demonstrated that the seaweed, Gracilaria manilaensis, has a high potential of producing agar for the food industry, and is a promising candidate as a dietary supplement for treating cancer and neurological disorders. Unfortunately, not many farms culturing G. manilaensis existed particularly in Malaysia. One of the reasons is

Machining of metals is generally accompanied by a violent relative vibration between work and tool, known as chatter. Chatter is undesirable due to its adverse effects on product quality, operation cost, machining accuracy, tool life, and productivity. This paper presents an innovative approach to chatter control during end milling of titanium allo
