Electronic navigation becomes increasingly more common, particularly onboard commercial vessels. As one of important elements in the electronic navigation, the electronic chart has introduced a new level of performance to navigation such as Electronic Chart Display and Information System (ECDIS). As a completely new and interactive navigation infor

In this study an attempt has been made to produce titanium-aluminium dispersed hard nitride layer on mild steel surfaces by preplacement of 50% Ti and 50% Al powder mixture and then melting with TIG torch under nitrogen environment. Parameter such as heat input of the torch was varied between 540, 608 and 675 J/mm and its effect on the resolidified

Navigasi elektronik, meskipun masih relatif baru dan belum begitu dikenal secara baik, belakangan ini menjadi makin sering ditemui dan diaplikasikan, terutama pada kapal-kapal niaga dan komersial. Peta elektronik, yang merupakan salah satu bagian penting dari navigasi elektronik, telah memgantarkan kita pada tingkat kinerja yang baru bagi dunia nav

Scientific activities are done with the assumption that the natural world is ordered through systematic laws that can be discovered by the human mind. Nature can be known in certainty apart from the perspective of the observer, and only then can science proceed. This dualistic vision of nature is widely accepted by the Western philosophy of science

The task of simulation is often complicated for which many naive users often seek for relatively easier solutions. In many cases, simulations are done without any visual output which makes them non-attractive. In this demo, we present ViSim; a new simulation demonstration tool that has a user-friendly graphical interface. ViSim could be useful for

This paper describes a formal experiment carried out to investigate the effect of the personality factor Openness to experience on the academic performance of students who practiced pair programming (PP) in higher education. The experiment was carried out at the University of Auckland, using as subjects undergraduate students attending an introduct

European and Asian developed countries consider History as the main subject in elementary and high schools curriculum, which is professionally reinforced in higher education. This consideration is intended to ensure that people respect leader and community contribution to maintain and develop excellences of civilization in this country. One way or

A study of the influence of water environments on the cyclic fatigue crack behavior of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), with (PVC-M) and without (PVC-U) chlorinated polyethylene (CPE) impact modifier was undertaken and compared with corresponding results in air. Two frequencies of 1 and 7 Hz were applied to assess the influence of frequency on the fatigue

The study is essentially an exploratory survey, which sets out to obtain some concrete information on the knowledge and understanding of, and attitudes towards, the acquisition of job skills in history fieldwork method among Malaysian secondary schools pupils based on the Integrated Curriculum for Secondary Schools (ICSS).
