Pure bitumen production through crude oil petroleum refining process is not desirable in road pavement application. The asphalt binder exhibits insufficient properties for pavement construction and need to be modified with various additives. In this study, the effect of untreated and treated waste cooking oil (WCO) on voids properties of hot mix as

This study focuses on increasing DPPH scavenging ability of C. caesia crude extract by incorporating it into the growth media of Lactobacillus plantarum after screening and optimizing selected growth factors of the media through Plackett Burman experimental design and face centered central composite design (FCCCD).* To whom correspondence should be

In this paper, a model reduction method for FIR filters with complex coefficients based on frequency interval impulse response Gramians is developed. The advantage of the proposed method is that only one Lyapunov equation needs to be solved in order to obtain the information regarding the frequency interval controllability and observability of the

The current travelling and visitation method are needing a change or else, the sustainability of tourism of a place would face serious consequences. The adoption of technology was rather slow to be implemented as stakeholders and businesses hesitate to take risks and gave unrealistic goals and expectations despite not having enough literacy on the

Horseshoe crabs amoebocyte cells degranulates to form a gel clot when in contact with endotoxins/Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) that are cellular constituents of gram-negative bacteria. This phenomenon is the basis of both Horseshoe crab immune system and detection of endotoxin in biologicals. Present study investigates the quality of amoebocyte cells in

Fucoxanthin has interesting anticancer activity, but is insoluble in water, hindering its use as a drug. Microencapsulation is used as a technique for improving drug delivery. This study aimed to formulate fucoxanthin-loaded microspheres (F-LM) for anticancer treatment of H1299 cancer cell lines and optimize particle size (PS) and encapsulation eff

In past decades, we have seen several epidemics of respiratory infections from newly emerging viruses, most of which originated in animals. These emerging infections, including severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV), Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) and the pandemic influenza A(H1N1) and avian influenza (AI)

Gait detection is crucial especially in active prosthetic leg control mechanism. Vision system, floor sensors, and wearable sensors are the popular methods proposed to collect data for gait detection. However, in active prosthetic leg control, a tool that is practical in its implementation and is able to provide rich gait information is important f

CubeSat in low earth orbit (LEO) primarily uses an amateur radio-band transmitter with a fixed specification. Nevertheless, the LEO satellite does not have an orbital velocity that equates to one sidereal day. Therefore, the ground station antenna views the satellite at different elevation angles which result in varied propagation path lengths. In

Up cycling is a process of converting old or discarded materials into something more useful and creative. It is also gives an item a better purpose. The concept of Up cycling ensures the product is made out of recyclable materials and better than the original product. In another term, up cycling actually increases the value of the product (Thanam I
