An understanding of fluid flow in sudden expansion has resulted in a great deal of research work in this area. Of particular interest is the study of base drag which influences the performance of automotive vehicles, aircraft, and missiles. Problems of fuel mixing in combustion chambers and reduction of specific fuel consumption are also governed b

This paper aims to investigate the dimension of knowledge factors of Muslim society’s purchase intention towards Halal products. Knowledge and religious belief are used as the independent variable while consumers’ factor intention is the dependent one. A quantitative study in this research utilizes a purposive sampling method that will generate

A non-uniform current spreading in the current spreader can greatly reduce the effciency of the light-emitting diode (LED). The effects of the electrode contact area to the spreading layer towards extraction effciency of LED chips is analysed in analytical simulations. Length of current spreading and light extraction effciency is analysed for varia

Joint cartilage has been a significant focus on the field of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine (TERM) since its inception in the 1980s. Represented by only one cell type, cartilage has been a simple tissue that is thought to be straightforward to deal with. After three decades, engineering cartilage has proven to be anything but easy. Wi

Stevia rebaudiana is a medicinal plant suggested as sucrose substitute ingredient in drinks as it lowers down the glucose level. It is recognized as zero calories sugar with 300 times sweeter than sugar cane. Stevia plant currently used as high non-nutritive high potency sweeteners. Research shows that stevioside level are the highest at the time o

This study was aimed to explore the usage of WhatsApp among young Malaysian voters in discussing political issues in Malaysia. In addition, it was also conducted to investigate the kinds of political and related issues discussed by the members of the created WhatsApp groups. WhatsApp, categorized as Mobile Messaging Applications (MMAs), was regarde

Thyroid antibodies are closely related to autoimmune thyroid disorders. To date, there are no data on the prevalence of these antibodies among the Malaysian population. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of thyroid antibodies; and the factors associated with thyroid antibodies in the Malaysian adult population. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A cr

A nonuniform current spreading in the current spreader layer greatly reduced the internal quantum efficiency (IQE) of the light-emitting diodes (LED). The effects of the current spreading layer on the electrode contact area toward the IQE in a vertical design of gallium nitride (GaN)-based LED chip is analytically analyzed. The contact area was var

The prediction models of MWQI in mangrove and estuarine zones were constructed. The 2011–2015 data em- ployed in this study entailed 13 parameters from six monitoring stations in West Malaysia. Spatial discriminant analysis (SDA) had recommended seven significant parameters to develop the MWQI which were DO, TSS, O&G, PO4, Cd, Cr and Zn. Thes

In the context of marine water quality monitoring, detailed information concerning the marine water quality index is importance. The paper presents the analysis of 8-year period trend (2010-2017) marine water quality index and the other marine water quality parameters fluctuations in the Klang estuary, which is have the famous Port Klang, the one o
