This work was performed to objectively measure and assess the robustness and tracking performance of fractional order of proportional, integral and derivative (FOPID) controller as compared to the conventional PID control. In satellite research and development, the satellite undergoes numerous tests such as thermal, acoustic and vibration tests in

Lack of information on the Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) decay rates of river water under the tropical environment has triggered this study with an aim to fill the gap. Raw sewage, treated sewage, river water and tap water were mixed in different proportions to represent river water receiving varying amounts and types of wastewater and fed in a l

Previous study reported that plant natural product promotes stem cell growth. Flaxseed (Linum usitatissimum) contains numerous compounds recognized for its health benefits. This study aimed to investigate the biological effects of flaxseed crude extract on stem cells obtained from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED). Whole flaxseeds were ground

There is lack of information regarding ammonia nitrogen (AN), (i.e. NH3-N) decay rate of river water in tropical regions like Malaysia. AN decay rate is a very important kinetic parameter to estimate NH3-N, nitrate nitrogen (NO3-N) and dissolved oxygen concentrations of river water by using computer models. This study presents determination of ammo

The damping characteristic of a healthy limb changes throughout the gait cycle. However, for amputees who are wearing mechanically passive damping prosthesis, the lack of ability to change the damping values might expose them to injuriesand health problems. The use of magnetorheological fluid damper in prosthetic limb, which provides wide dynamic r

In Malaysia, food price inflation reached its highest level at 8.8% in mid-2008 compared to overall inflation of 5.5% for the same period, mainly blamed on the spike in world commodity prices. However, recent moves by the government to rationalize food and energy subsidies have also led to higher than normal headline inflation figures and cause pub
