The purpose of this research is to study and apply the rapid prototyping technique using fused deposition modeling (FDM) in improving the quality of an automotive part. A machine that works under FDM principle will be used to produce the final product. An automotive component has been selected as the product for this research and application. Befor

This paper is an explanation of the mechanical properties of ABS material by using different process and technology of producing it. The main concern is to expose the user about the importance of differentiating two main production machines of plastics which are rapid prototyping technology and injection molding process. The results of the experime

Rapid prototyping (RP) has become one major play role particularly in the area of product development by providing a quick solid view on parts or products before it can be further into productions. Thus, the purpose of this study is to determine the growth of rapid prototyping’s populations and its’ potential in malaysia. Regarding to this matt

Laser sintering (LS) is one of the most versatile rapid prototyping (RP) processes currently available. One of the main advantages of employing this technology is that the non-sintered powder can be recycled and reused for further fabrication. Current powder recycling methodologies using a constant refresh rate with a very high portion of new mater

DDS and ADC are the components of an FMCW radar that can not be separated. DDS serves to rapidly synthesize an analog signal at a specific frequency, whereas ADC converts analog into digital signals for further processing. Both DDS and ADC required a synchronization through the Sweep Repetition Frequency (SRF) to determine the frequency tuning word

This paper discusses terminal sliding mode control for active engine mounting (AEM) system to isolate vehicle engine body vibration. The engine vibration may occur due to road irregularities, at low frequency, and also reciprocating mechanism of the piston in the engine, at high frequency about 20 – 40 Hz. Active engine mounting system is designe

The needs of powerful engine and lighter car body has adverse effect to the vibration occurred in the car. Obviously the presence of the engine vibration will imposed to the discomfort of the driver and passengers as well. To isolate the vibration, active engine mounting (AEM) has been proposed as the new generation of engine mounting. The control

This book tries to elaborate on Islamic theories of diplomacy according to the practices and patterns set by Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and his Companions. The theories include: the universal characteristics of Islam and the meaning and principles of diplomacy in Islam. A special attention is given to jihiid and the peaceful relations tow

This book helps readers understand the message of the Qur'an by giving precise meaning to some polysemous words found in it. Polysemy is a semantic state of a word that has two or more meanings. Polysemic entries are numbered and arranged in alphabetical order. It also explains the two major approaches in the interpretation of Qur'anic poly

Background:Although many researches had revealed the beneficial efect of Kayu Sugi as a chewing stick, study on the efectiveness of its extract in toothpaste is still inadequate.Purpose: The objective of this study was to compare the effect of toothpaste, with and without Kayu Sugi extract on preventing plaque formation. Methods: The study consists
