Focusing on optimizing the total power consumption of the vehicle, two main issues were studied in this paper. First, a theoretical model is developed to minimize total power consumption of the vehicle. Second, a control scheme is proposed to achieve the control targets and to minimize the power consumption by using a fuzzy logic controller. Compar

Melioidosis has a high annual incidence and mortality rate in Pahang, Malaysia. We initiated the first melioidosis registry in the country on 1st July 2005 to improve the management of melioidosis in the state. Continuous medical education on melioidosis was carried out in all hospitals in the state to highlight the magnitude of the disease and to

Cost effectiveness, availability and adsorptive properties are the main criteria for choosing the bioadsorbent to remove organic compounds from wastewater. Considering these criteria, an active bioadsorbent was prepared by immobilizing the commercial activated carbon with the fungal biomass through the fermentation process. The potential strains we

This study describes the length–weight (LWR) and length– length (LLR) relationships for ten small indigenous fish species from the lower part of the Ganges, Bangladesh, namely Ailia coila, Amblypharyngodon mola, Aspidoparia morar, Clupisoma atherinoides, Eutropiichthyes vacha, Glossogobius giuris, Gudusia chapra, Lepidocephalus guntea, Mystus v

Acoustic emission (AE) is now a well established technique for damage detection, quantification and location in large structures. It appears in its principle as a technique providing real time information about the origins and the importance of the degradation mechanisms inside the material. This paper demonstrates the use of AE technique to monito

Renewable energy from the wind turbine has been focused for the alternative source of power generation due to the following advances of the of the wind turbine. Firstly, the wind turbine is highly efficient and eco-friendly. Secondly, the turbine has the ability to response for the changeable power generation based on the wind velocity and structur

We have used cellular automata integrated with GIS and remote sensing to analyze urban sprawl aiming at analyzing expansion of potential unauthorized land uses for residential, commercial and industrial based on spatial factor deriving from remote sensing high resolution data. The spatial factors considered are used as parameter to measure either l

This paper describes the unique structure of an aircraft model with and without winglet tested at Aerodynamics Laboratory, Faculty of Engineering (University Putra Malaysia) using subsonic wind tunnel of 1000 mm × 1000 mm rectangular test section and 2500 mm long. Focusing on predicting the aerodynamic characteristics of the aircraft model, three

S,S′-(Naphthalen-2-ylmethyl sulfanyl (1-p-tolyl-ethylidene) hydrazine (SNM4MA) was prepared by the condensation of S-napthalen-2-ylmethyldithiocarbazate (SNMDTC) and 4-methylacetophenone. Yellow needles of SNM4MA were obtained upon slow evaporation of a 50:50 mixture of acetonitrile and DMSO over a period of weeks. The compound crystallizes in th
