In Malaysia, every year approximately 40000 people suffer from stroke and many of them become immobilized as an after effect. Rehabilitation robotics to assist disabled people has drawn significant attention by the researchers recently. This project also aims to contribute to this field. This paper presents a Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) actuated weara

In this paper we will investigate whether or not the writhe of knot is an isotopy invariant? By adding a parallel strand to an oriented knot/link, we will justify that writhe is a useful isotopy invariant. Since helicity has its origin in knot theory, consequently, we will establish that helicity is an isotopy invariant which will be useful to stud

Objective: of this study was to evaluate the antihypertensive potential of Thymoquinone TQ and to investigate the underlying mechanism of action. Method: Hypertension was induced in in Sprague Dawley rats (n = 40) by administration of L-Nitro-Arginine Methyl Ester (L-NAME) in drinking water for 4 weeks. At the end of induction period, rats were div

Zero was a brilliant innovation and most significant achievement but it has threatened the foundations of modern physics and is behind all of the big puzzles in physics. Today, zero lies at the heart of one of the biggest scientific controversies of all time. The mysterious zero is posing challenges not only to intellectuals, philosophers, scientis

The identification of reliable markers for active tuberculosis (TB) diagnosis is pivotal, especially in challenging scenarios, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), where co-infections, notably among individuals with AIDS, pose significant diagnostic challenges. Lipoarabinomannan (LAM), an immunogenic virulence factor released f

Optimisation is about finding the best solution to a particular problem. It is applied in many fields, especially in engineering problems. Drilling hole is a machining process that uses a tool with a pointed end or cutting edges to create circular holes in a material. One of the most common problems with drilling multiple holes is machining time. W

Stress is an interaction between individuals and their environment, where perceived threats can lead to serious consequences if prolonged and consistently linked to adverse physical and mental health outcomes. Our study explores methods for stress classification via speech, utilizing an unscripted dataset from an experimental study that was able to

The aquaculture industry in Malaysia relies predominantly on Recirculating Aquaculture Systems (RAS), which are susceptible to infections, leading to disease outbreaks and significant economic repercussions. The frequent need for manual interventions makes RAS labor-intensive and inefficient. To address these challenges, this study advocates a shif

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a leading disease that cause impaired vision with a consequence of permanent blindness if it is undiagnosed and untreated at the early stages. Alas, DR often has no early warning sign and may cause no symptoms. Particularly, recent statistics recorded that about 382 million individuals globally, with the number predicte

Blockchain, renowned for its decentralized and secure nature, and Artificial Intelligence, the pinnacle of machine intelligence, stand as pillars of innovation. However, despite the recognition of their few successful collaborations, the interrelation among these triumvirates – Internet-of- Things (IoT), Blockchain, and Artificial Intelligence (A
