In this work the potential of piezoelectric actuators to induce twist on a composite helicopter rotor blade has been investigated using ANSYS. An analogical thin-walled box beam has been modeled to investigate the effects of different ply orientations, boundary conditions and applied loads on displacement and twist of the box beam. Results obtained

In this study, numerical simulation of tubes of various cross section under axial compression is carried out using LS-DYNA. The effect of varying configurations of tube crosssection shape on the deformation response, collapse mode and energy absorption characteristics of tubes under quasi-static axial compression have been studied. The validation o

An educational software which can aid students in stress analysis of idealized thin-walled open sections has been developed. The software enables students to select different cross-sections which may be subjected to bending, shear or torsional loads and evaluate the stresses on it. Results obtained through this software have been validated. The sof

In the common law world, Australia was the first country to adopt, in the 19th century, a title registration system, widely known as the Torrens system. The system become popular in many common law countries. In Asia, countries such as Malaysia and Singapore adopted the system. In this article, the authors cinsider the global implementation of titl

Social media are popular among youth for sharing information. This study tries to explore the popularity of the social media sites, the level of use of the social media sites, the types of information-sharing activities involved on the social media sites, to compare youth of various background in relation to information-sharing activities, and to a

This paper highlighted general description of the ongoing Arabic Language Teaching Program (ALTP) in Malaysia. The critical issues addressed contain some determining factors involved within the educational policies applied and its operational strategies practised within the environmental constraints and sociocultural impacts. At the same time it is

This paper tries to explore the possibility of applying the Hierarchy-of-Effect-Model (Zajonc, 1980) on Islamic reality shows towards Malay community in Malaysia, which is a new phenomenon, compared to the other existing reality shows that are mushrooming. The objectives of the study are (1) To find out the level of attention given to, perception o

The role of media and the mediating influence of interpersonal communication has been a major concern in election studies; especially with regard to the voting intention of youth. The audience derives their knowledge of current news and political information from the mass media, which could be the starting point for interpersonal discussion. As suc
