(Universiti Malaysia PerlisSchool of Materials Engineering, 2009)The aim of this research is the improvement of the mechanical properties of natural fiber reinforced thermoset, as a result of optimization of the properties of sugarcane bagasse fibers by the use of NaOH treatment process. ... -
Utilization of Gracilaria sp. liquid for bioethanol production
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP)School of Bioprocess Engineering, 2015)Seaweed liquid from filter-pressed drying process of Gracilaria sp. has caused unpleasant odour to the environment. Although this liquid can partially be used as biofertilizer and heavy metals adsorbent, a bigger portion ... -
Utilization of palm oil boiler ash (POBA) as geopolymer material for Industrialized Building System (IBS) application
The increment of palm oil waste from palm oil extraction increased every year in Malaysia. Palm oil boiler ash (POBA) or bottom ash is one of the waste material from the palm oil industry where it was obtained from the ... -
Variational Monte Carlo study of light nuclei
An outstanding problem in Variational Monte Carlo (VMC) calculations with realistic interactions like Argonne V18 and Urbana IX three-body interactions is that p-shell nuclei turn out to be grossly under bound as compared ... -
A visual tracking range of motion assessment system for lower limb joint
Accurate range of motion (ROM) measurement of lower limb joint motion is important for assessing the severity of human lower limb injuries. It is essential for assisting the medical doctor and physiotherapist to determine ... -

Volunteering intention among Malaysian undergraduates: investigating the influence of attitude, subjective norms, perceived behavior control and religiosity
Youth represent important target of the population with great potential and a valuable resource to work as volunteers. The primary focus on describing the characteristics of youth who choose to volunteer, however, has ... -
Warpage minimisation on side arm using response surface methodology (RSM)
Catheter manufacturing process requires the use of mould called side arm through latex dipping process. Manufacturing process of a nylon PA66 - side arm via an injection moulding often leads to undesirable warpage. This ... -
Waste seashell as calcium oxide catalyst for bio-oil production from empty fruit bunch
Oil palm waste could be converted into bio-oil through pyrolytic process due to its renewable resource to ensure continuity and capacity for renewable-energy solution. It is a great challenge to convert empty fruit bunch ... -
Water absorption behaviour and its effect on the mechanical properties of hybrid interwoven cellulosic fibre composites
With aim to fulfill the public need that eager for ‘green product’, natural based fibres started to receive attention to substitute synthetic fibres as reinforcement in composites. Natural fibres is relatively cheap, easy ... -
