Many public relations scholars believed that, the emergence of social media has accentuated the public relations practice in recent times. Social media provides public relations practitioners opportunities for creating, sharing, posting, documenting as well as interacting communication content on the net between organizations and their key public m

A buckling analysis of an isotropic circular plate with piezoceramic annular plate attached to it is presented. The annular plate is attached at the circular plate edge so that the radius of the circular plate is the inner radius of the annular plate. The piezoceramic annular plate is used as the radial in-plane load source. The radial and hoop str

This is a study on the growth of public relations in Malaysia based on the advertisements placed in the newspapers during the colonial period. Tracing the historical development serves to make a better understanding about the nature of public relations practice. This paper therefore aims at exploring the development of the public relations professi

This study explores the influence of education, length of service, professionalism, and ethics on the professional values of public relations practitioners in Malaysia. A total of 427 questionnaires were distributed to public relations practitioners in Malaysia, and 322 questionnaires were returned. The study included 61% female respondents, and 39

Many surveillance systems today provide only a passive form of site monitoring. Extensive video records may be kept to help find the instigator of criminal activities after the crime has been committed but preventive measures require human involvement. In addition, there is a need for large amounts of data storage to keep up to several large volume

The purpose of this paper is to explicate the congruence of innovative financial tools: Social Impact Bond (SIB) and Sustainable and Responsible Investment (SRI) sukuk with the principles of Islamic Finance, and explore their potential contribution towards the sustainable growth of the Islamic finance and societal wellbeing. Using various literatur

Fuzzy set theory was introduced in 1965 by Dr. Lotfi Zadeh to represent/manipulate data and information possessing nonstatistical uncertainties. He has developed considerably since its inception. Although initially the new and revolutionary ideas were viewed controversially in the realm of mathematics, they were more welcomed in several fields of e

Fuzzy logic is simply the operations of fuzzification, conjunction, disjunction, complement,defuzzification etc. on fuzzy sets. It is generally carried out using the degree of membership that has been discussed so far. The fuzzification step is usually performed on data being input into a system. In the Mamdani fuzzy inference methodology this fuzz

Conventionally the selection of parameters depends intensely on the operator’s experience or conservative technological data provided by the EDM equipment manufacturers that assign inconsistent machining performance. The parameter settings given by the manufacturers are only relevant with common steel grades. A single parameter change influences

This paper presents a starting solution for some oscillating flows of an incompressible and electrically conducting second-grade fluid through porous space in a rotating frame of reference. Modified Darcy’s law for a second-grade fluid has been utilized to discuss the flows through porous space. Exact analytical expressions for the velocity field
