The purpose of this manuscript is to provide assistance on detecting weather tightness defects in buildings to- • Assistance, usual good practice standards to be followed by those diagnosing weather tightness defects, and • Contribute to the well-organized and effective repair of buildings that are leaking. For accurate diagnosing a leaking req

A unit step function can be used for generating a pulse of given width and height. The same pulse can be used for generating a stepped waveform of known levels and a given width in time-domain which when translated to frequency or complex S-domain provides the fundamental constituent frequencies. This paper is about studying the frequency of the ab

This book presents an investigation on the production of English derivational forms by Malaysian secondary school students. Although the use of the forms has been the subject of study in numerous ESL settings, the same cannot generally be said in the Malaysian context. Being one of the main sources for English vocabulary, derivational morphological

Grounding terminals are mandatory in electrical appliance design as they provide safety route during overvoltage faults. The soil (earth) been the universal ground is assumed to be at zero electric potential. However, due to properties like moisture, pH and available nutrients; the electric potential may fluctuate between positive and negative valu

Knowledge has been misconceived and is equated with information. This study, based upon primary sources, explains that knowledge from the ideational system of Islam is the consciousness of high order of reality and truth lying behind the signs spread throughout the working of the universe. Knowledge is the identification and realization of the High

In this work, a numerical investigation was conducted to study the springback phenomena in the mechanical clinching process. The springback values were calculated using finite element simulations and it was found that these values depend strongly on the strength of the materials. A Taguchi optimization method was used to determine the optimal param

The time between detection and response to chronic diseases could go a long way in saving lives. The current trend in health monitoring systems is to move from the hospital centered device to eventually portable personal devices. Hence,Telemedical health care involves the remote delivery of medical care service to either out-of-hospital or admitted

Background: To investigate the effect of Eurycoma longifolia Jack root extract on serum lipids in rats. Methods: Twenty-six mature male albino Wistar rats were used in this study. A group of 18 rats were fed a high fat and high cholesterol diet for 4 weeks, after which their lipid profile was compared to the control group, who were kept on a normal

Microalgae are a source of numerous compounds that can be used in different industries. Significantly, microalgae can produce exopolysaccharides (EPS) and the synthesis of EPS can be amplified under several stress conditions. Carbon- based nanomaterials have attracted great deal of interests by researcher due to many unique properties (i.e. chemica

The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence and severity of depression, anxiety and stress among diabetic patients with periodontitis and to assess the association of emotional disturbances with the severity of periodontitis. A total of 72 diabetic patients with periodontitis and 87 non diabetic patients with periodontitis who attended Kul
