Process modeling and optimization are two important issues in today’s manufacturing. It is important, in metal cutting, to select the machining parameters to ensure high quality of machining products, reduce machining costs and increase machining efficiency. Nowadays surface roughness and accuracy of product is getting greater attention in the in

This paper presents the design of a passive RFID tag antenna operating at 2.45 GHz. The electromagnetic simulation software called CST is used for design and simulation. A high gain (5.842dB), a good impedance matching with the microchip (-30.0 dB Return Loss) and a satisfactory read range performance (upto 5 m) was obtained. One approach of design

A history of Muslims’ contribution to present-day science and technology is the exploration of the missing account of their glorious past. Muslims integrated science, theology, and philosophy as they were urged to study, acquire knowledge, and learn from others' expertise and civilization. The significance of this study lies not in recounting

Although the earlier growth theories such as the “Harrod-Domar” growth model as well as the “Solow-Swan” growth model did not consider energy as an important input in the production function, in recent many energy economists (e.g., Stern, 1993, 1997, 2000; Pokrovski, 2003; Thompson, 2006 etc.) contended that energy is a crucial factor that

Today, the Muslim society is embroiled with many problems and there are reasons for this. It is the view of many Muslim scholars that presently the Muslim family institution is not as strong as it is supposed to be. The objective of the present research was to apply Quality Function Deployment (QFD) and Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) to strengthe

HSBL University College is one of the privately run institutions of higher learning in Malaysia which offers, among others, various programs in Economics, Accounting and Business Administration. A recent survey conducted by the Faculty of Business (FB) of HSBL found that the students were not fully satisfied with the teaching and learning system of

The exotic phrase “Vision 2020” has been coined to signify a lofty and long term objective pertaining to some issue in many countries across the world. In Malaysia, the architect of this vision is the former Prime Minister Tun Dr. Mahathir bin Mohamad, who unveiled it in 1991, 30 years in advance of the time line of demarcation. The gist of the

A mathematical model for an evacuated solar still is presented in this work. Fluent software is used to model and simulate the evaporation and condensation processes inside the solar still. The simulation results showed the transient state of the evaporation and condensation inside the still and the vapour stream lines inside the solar still. Simul

Eugenia polyantha leaves, a popular fresh salad (‘ulam’) used by the Kelantanese has been claimed as a cure for hypertension. In this study, the hypotensive effects of aqueous extract of Eugenia polyantha leaves (AEEP) on the anaesthetized male normotensive Wistar-Kyoto rats were described. Increasing intravenous doses of AEEP (0.01, 0.1, 1, 10
