Porous aluminum (Al) composites are lightweight and high-strength materials composing of Al as a matrix material with some strengthening reinforcements and pore-forming agents that result in the formation of new material with superior physical properties and energy absorption capacities. This work gives an overview of the porous Al-foams developed

Aluminum matrix composites (AMCs) have been extensively studied primarily due to higher strength-to-weight ratio, lower cost, and higher wear resistance properties. However, increasing demand for economical and energy-efficient materials in the automotive, aerospace and other applications is tailoring research area in the agro-based composite mater

The algorithmic dilemma that we are in right now is severe than what we really think. It has changed its shape from a smart assistant to an uncontrollable dictator; to an independent troublemaker that can systematically crush one’s everything, and I do not really know what that everything is since everything has now become unpredictable. Even whe

INTRODUCTION: In the current climate of urgency in identifying biomarkers for the development of rapid diagnostic kits, the use of urine samples to diagnose acute melioidosis was evaluated, comparing urine samples from Burkholderia pseudomallei culture-positive and culture-negative patients, and comparing pneumonic and septicemic melioidosis. MATER

Introduction: Investigation of urine proteome in patients with acute melioidosis may reveal potential disease markers, from either bacterial or human proteins. We used an in-solution gel-free method instead of 2-DE to detect human and Burkholderia pseudomallei proteins in urine of patients with acute melioidosis. Here, we propose a simpler, economi

This quantitative research investigated the level of foreign language anxiety (FLA) between different genders of Japanese foreign language learners in the higher education context in Malaysia considering that studies specifically focusing on gender differences in the foreign language anxiety among Japanese language learners is not actively explored

Background: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) survivors require attention and dependence from their primary caregiver. This is because TBI is a defect that affects both the psychological and physical functions of the victim. Caregivers play an essential role in providing the adequate care victims need to adjust to the new problems they may experience du

This is an expansion of my talk delivered at an emerging institution of women empowerment, Zaitoon International Girls’ Campus of Kerala, India. They invited me as a speaker for the inaugural session of a psychology conference conducted in the middle of 2019 on the theme, rethinking the paradigm of psychology: scientific and religious perspective

The recent tourism trends increase the demand for Islamic hospitality services. Shariah-compliant health and wellness are new innovative and inventive facilities originate in the hotel trade. This development can be found in countries where muslim occupant is the majority population. It associated with the earlier study that from Muslim clients is

In this study, melt blended compositions of pure PLA with additions of polyethylene glycol (PEG) up to 30 wt% were prepared. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) were used to investigate the properties of PLA/PEG blends, such as structural, thermal, and morphol
