A small amount of nano dispersed filler leads to an improvement in material properties. Montmorillonite (MMT) is one type of filler commonly used in nanocomposite material. A high density polyethylene/ethylene propylene rubber - montmorillonite (HDPE/EPR-MMT) is one of the nanocomposite material that is new to the industry. This paper investigates

Microorganisms universally attach to surfaces and produce extracellular polysaccharides, resulting in the formation of a biofilm. Biofilms pose a serious problem for public health because of the increased resistance of biofilm-associated organisms to antimicrobial agents and the potential for these organisms to cause infections in patients with ind

Ficus deltoidea (FD) is one of the native plants widely distributed in several countries in Southeast Asia. Previous studies have shown that FD leaf possess antinociceptive, wound healing and antioxidant properties. These beneficial effects have been attributed to the presence of primary and secondary metabolites such as polyphenols, amino acids an

Literature review is an excruciating part in the process of research. It requires an analysis of published material on the topic of interest. Moreover, for a few researchers, it is challenging to extract a great number of required objectives, including problem identification, commonly known as 'gap' in research. Searching and locating most

Many studies on higher education branding are situated in developed higher education markets such as the US, the UK, and Australia. This work-in-progress paper examines the challenges of higher education branding in the context of Malaysia, a developing higher education market, and argues that public and private university face challenges that are

Program slice is the part of program that may take the program off the path of the desired output at some point of its execution. Such point is known as the slicing criterion. This point is generally identified at a location in a given program coupled with the subset of variables of program. This process in which program slices are computed is call

Among the factors which have trajectory roles on the academic attainment of students, intergenerational bonding is the foremost of them. Though intergenerational bonding has basically focused on parent-child relationship, contemporary studies further consider the teacher-student relationship as intergenerational bonding to identify its effect on th

The relation to the infinite variety issues sprouting in sports or lex sportiva, like lex mercatoria in the early centuries, has now come of age and even begun a maturing process in the past thirty-five years or so. Lex sportiva now straddles sports management, sports medicine, tort, criminal law, employment contract, competition law and a host of

Resources from multiple social contexts influence students’ educational aspiration. In the field of social capital a neglected issue is how students obtain social capital from varying contexts and which contexts benefit them more to shape their future educational plan which consequently affects their level of aspiration. In this study, we aim to

This paper investigates to compare the Photoplythsmography (PPG) signals based on Heart Rate Variability (HRV) criteria for two different age groups. This paper demonstrates the variation of PPG and HRV signals for subjects of age group in the twenties and fifties. The so used Easy Pulse Sensor module making use of the photo sensing technique to co
