This paper focuses on the development of a zirconia-toughened alumina ZTA-TiO2-Cr2O3 ceramic composite by means of microwave sintering at 2.45 GHz within the range 1200 °C–1400 °C, with a dwell time of 5–20 min. It is aimed at attaining improved microstructure and properties at a lower sintering temperature and shorter soaking time, compared

Vertical greenery (VG) is greenery where plants can be grown on, up, or against internal or external walls of buildings or as freestanding structures. Whereas, public art (PA) is a structure or form that contains an artistic expression. It is placed in public spaces. VG has gained tremendous popularity in recent years, and this offers an opportunit

This paper presents an optimization work on hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) powertrain using Genetic Algorithm (GA) method. It focused on optimization of the parameters of powertrain components including supercapacitors to obtain maximum fuel economy. Vehicle modelling is based on Quasi-Static-Simulation (QSS) backward-facing approach. A combined cit

Research has shown that physical inactivity is prevalent among urban residents. It is due to sedentary living and spending a little time on outdoor recreational activities. This study implies that nearby parks, green spaces or even activities on neighborhood streets can increase participation in the outdoors, thus improve health. The aim of the stu

Real Time (RT) and Non-Real Time (NRT) multimedia content demand on mobile devices are increasing at a high pace. Long Term Evolution-Advanced (LTE-A) is expected to cater these demands. However, LTE-A operates at fixed spectrum which leads to spectrum scarcity. Cognitive Radio (CR) is one the promising technologies that is used to overcome spectru

The relationship between greenspace and health is important to be explored because it relates to health issues, which are prevalent among city citizens. Urban greenspace can improve residents' lifestyle for healthier living. The paper presents a review of evidence that links greenspace and health through various conceptual models. The literatur

This book discusses a conceptual framework for Islamic architecture which renders Islamic architecture such a unique subject and much different from other architectural expressions. The issues that form the cornerstones of the conceptual framework for Islamic architecture are dealt with in the paper. The issues discussed are: tawhid (the idea of Go

This paper explores the orbit design procedures of a low Earth satellite orbit for remote sensing mission. The mission objective is to gather images over Malaysia as an area of interest for a variety of applications such as land monitoring and digital mapping. The design procedures are mainly driven by the payload performance, lighting conditions a
