We demonstrate a simple, compact and low cost Q-switched fiber lasers based on Erbium-doped fiber (EDF) and Thulium-doped fiber (TDF) to operate at 1534.5 nm and 1846.4 nm, respectively by exploiting a multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) polymer composite film based saturable absorber (SA). The composite is prepared by mixing the MWCNTs homogene

TRIPS Agreement provides significant flexibility to member countries to determine the scope and duration of compulsory licences issued by them. TRIPS mandates, however, that the scope and duration of the licence must not go beyond the purpose for which the licence is issued. For countries that have never invoked compulsory licences before, the lack

The statistic shows that Malaysia is becoming an ageing nation by 2030. This indicates the demand of care and facilities to support the wellbeing of elderly. Statistics shows that more and more elderly in Malaysia are falling into psychological health problems such as depression and Dementia-Alzheimer due in part to the lack of simulation, meaningf

Bioreactor or fermenter is the heart of a process. Scaling up a bioreactor and maintaining the same optimized process in a recombinant enzyme production in a higher scale is an engineering challenge. Scale-up is about mixing and mass transfer, a combination of art and science. It is more to methodological approach with some combination of rules of

ABSTRACT— The present doldrums position and state of decadence, internal differences, external aggression (geographicaland ideological), lack of self-confidence and dependence, illiteracy, political instability, economic disaster, lack of knowledge and wisdom, back benchers in science and technology, education, medicine, trade and business, banki

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 subject of euthanasia has generated many controversial debates, particularly on its legality. This has been primarily due to the doctrine of sanctity of life which is a predominant principle in many religions and is embedded in moral values. The underlying precept is that human life is sacred and demands respect, as all life comes from God and
