Development of a less complex single phase active harmonic filter
(The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia, 2005-09)
Harmonic pollution has become a serious problem in recent years. Harmonic is introduced into power systems due to nonlinear
loads or system components presenting non-linear behavior. An active power filter is one of the ...
A study of the phenomenon of soil – reinforcement interaction
(The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia, 2005-06)
The analysis and design of reinforced earth wall and retaining wall with reinforced backfill require the knowledge of the value
of the coefficient of interfacial friction between soil and reinforcement. This coefficient ...
Modeling cad performance with Fuzzy Cognitive Map
(The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia, 2005-12)
This paper demonstrates how Fuzzy Cognitive Map (FCM) is used to model CAD performance in an engineering consultancy
environment by simulating the effects of certain conditions and actions on CAD service quality. A knowledge ...
Employing a failure criterion with interaction terms to simulate the progressive failure of carbon-epoxy laminates
(The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia, 2005-06)
A failure criterion with the existence of coupling terms is employed to investigate the progressive failure in anisotropic
laminated carbon-epoxy plates. The criterion is employed because it is developed recently. Moreover, ...
Aerodynamic performance of a remotely piloted vehicle
(The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia, 2005-12)
An experimental investigation and computer simulation have been made to obtain the aerodynamic characteristics of a
remotely piloted vehicle (RPV), USM eFA-1. In the present study, the aerodynamic investigations are carried ...
Effect of cold work and overload on fatigue life of notched 2024-T351 aluminium alloy specimens
(The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia, 2005-09)
Fatigue life of the notched circular hole 2024-T351 aluminium alloy specimens improves significantly with cold work and the
improvement in fatigue life is highest for the 7.6% cold work specimens as compared to un-worked ...
Innovation in engineering consultancy: A case for competitive advantage
(The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia, 2005-06)
The internationalisation of the engineering consultancy services brings new challenges to its competitiveness. Service
innovation is the way to enhance competitiveness. Although competitive innovation in the 1990s was ...
Highly reactive electrogenerated zinc: Preparation and its use in cross-coupling reactions
(The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia, 2005-03)
Highly reactive zinc metal was prepared by electrolysis of a N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) solution containing naphthalene
and a supporting electrolyte in a one-compartment cell fitted with a platinum cathode and a zinc ...
Development status of indigenous computational fluid dynamics software for arbitrary complex geometry
(The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia, 2005-12)
This paper describes the development status of an indigenous Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software (FLOWSIM)
capable of handling complex geometry. It addresses the development of the pre-processor, post-processor ...
Daily streamflow forecasting using simplified rule-based fuzzy logic system
(The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia, 2005-12)
In this study, a simplified fuzzy logic system with uniform partitions in the input space is proposed for forecasting the daily
streamflow of four river systems in Malaysia. The proposed simplified fuzzy logic system was ...
