Durian skin is a newly explores natural fibre potentially reinforced polyolefin for diverse applications. In this work, investigation on the effect of coupling agent, maleic anhydride polypropylene (MAPP) on the mechanical, morphological, and thermal properties of polypropylene (PP) reinforced with durian skin fibre (DSF) was conducted. The presenc

Health informatics is the combination of different fields including information science, medicine and information technology for the sole purpose of formulating various systems to generate, validate, secure and integrate health-related data. The main purpose health informatics is to deliver an effective, integrated high quality health care system f

A DC-DC step-up voltage converter is designed to convert a very lowvoltage supply, 35 mV such as fromthe thermal energy source from body heat. The converter can generate an outputvoltage up to 210 mV, approximately six imes its initial input voltage over afrequency of 36 GHz. The effect of switching transistors, inductor current,rise and fall time

The ultimate physical outcomes of compliance with halal requirements in Islamic production are high quality and safe products. The producers or suppliers, who claim that their products are halal but in actual fact are not halal, are subject to criminal sanctions under relevant laws in Malaysia. The question arises as to whether the producers of non

This study investigates the utility of a hybrid adsorption-membrane process for cake compressibility evaluation of biotreated palm oil mill effluent (BPOME). A low-cost empty fruit bunch (EFB) based powdered activated carbon (PAC) was employed for the upstream adsorption process with operation conditions of 60 g/L PAC dose, 68 min mixing time, and

This Biometric identification technology has been growing over the last years with increasing demand to improve the technology and provide a better security for the society. In this paper, a biometric identification system using electrocardiogram (ECG) has been introduced and to compete with the existing biometric identification systems such as fin
