In recent years, the atomic force microscope (AFM) has become an important tool in nanotechnology research. It was first conceived to generate 3-D images of conducting as well as nonconducting surfaces with a high degree of accuracy. Presently, it is also being used in applications that involve manipulation of material surfaces at a nanoscale. In t

Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate the light intensity of selected light curing units with varying distance and angulation of the light curing tip and lightmeter. Materials and method: Four types of light units; Spectrum 800 (Dentsply), Coltulux 3 (Coltene), Elipar FreeLight 2 (3M Espe) and Starlight Pro (Mectron) were evaluat

Design and implementation of proportional integral derivative (PID) and linear quadratic regulator (LQR) controllers to attenuate the engine-body disturbance is presented in this paper. These control techniques are implemented on two degree of freedom engine-body vibration model so that vibration isolation is achieved by controlling the actuator fo

Multi Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) involves not only attributes that are precise or crisp, but also values that are not deterministic. Currently, Fuzzy TOPSIS presents a solution for decision makers when dealing with real world data that are usually multi attributes and involves a complex decision making process. In this work, an application of

Abstract. In this paper, we consider a problem on finding the number of different single connected component containing a fixed root for a given number of vertices on semi-infinite Cayley tree. The solution of this problem is the well known Catalan numbers. The result is then extended to the complete graph. Then, we gave a suitable estimate for the

The executive is the oldest of all branches of government. From the archaeological evidence in the Middle East, it is clear that the institution of executive (kingship) was well established over 5000 years ago. 1 It possesses great power and authority in any political system. The executive branch of government has remained at the center of power of

The study aims to describe the implementation of al-Qarḍ al-Ḥasan in the distribution of zakat to asnaf al-Ghārimīn in the institutions of zakat in Malaysia. This study uses qualitative methods and analyzes using inductive, deductive and comparative methods. Studies show that there are zakat institutions in Malaysia that carry out the zakat d

In many cases of wave structure interactions, three-dimensional models are used to demonstrate real-life complex environments in large domain scales. In the seakeeping context, predicting the motion responses in the interaction of a long body resembling a ship structure with regular waves is crucial and can be challenging. In this work, regular wav

Text classification is a popular method in data mining. It is utilized to get valuable information from the vast quantity of data. Feature selection is a crucial step in Text classification. It is a vital preprocessing technique for powerful data analysis, where only a subset from the original data features is chosen by removing noisy, irrelevant,
