A methodology to evaluate design efficiency based on assembly criteria in support of design for modularity
(The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia, 2005-03)
The objective of this paper is to develop a new methodology for evaluating design efficiency based on assembly criteria. The
new methodology can be utilised to support the design for modularity approach. The verification ...
Uniaxial die compaction of food powders
(The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia, 2009-12)
This paper presents a study of uniaxial die compaction of food powders for typical food powders such as maize powder and maize grits as well as a universal binder known as microcrystalline cellulose or Avicel. This method ...
Nano-sized Mn2O3 prepared by a novel solvolysis route as an electrochemical capacitor electrode material
(The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia, 2008-09)
Nano-sized manganese oxide (Mn2O3) was synthesized using a solvothermal route with the presence of citric acid as the chelating
agent and acetone as the handle. The sample obtained was heated at 400˚C, 600˚C and 800˚C ...
Aerodynamic design and aircraft family concept for an advanced technology regional aircraft (ATRA)
(The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia, 2004-03)
The aim of this work is to make a feasibility study of the application of combined Hybrid Laminar Flow Control (HLFC) - Variable
Camber Wing (VCW) to the ATRA aircraft family. The VCW can be used as a lift control during ...
Study of flow in a non-symmetrical compound channel with rough flood plain
(The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia, 2008-06)
The practical interest to study the flow in compound channel section arises from the necessity for accurate discharge predictions during flood events and for a reliable stage discharge relation for flood control measures ...
Use of suitable equation of state forthe conversion of volumetric to massflowrate in NGV refueling measurement
(The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia, 2009-06)
Natural Gas Vehicle (NGV) is not new in the industry; however, it is becoming an uprising issue owing to the multitude advantages natural gas posses compared to the conventional fuel. The challenges, on the other hand, are ...
Resilient modulus of Malaysian base and subbase pavement materials
(The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia, 2008-06)
Pavement design approach is shifting towards analytical or mechanistic-based procedures. Resilient modulus is a fundamental parameter used in the procedure and a study was carried out to characterise the parameter for base ...
Seismic performance of monolithic wall panel subjected to quasi-static lateral cyclic loading
(The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia, 2008-09)
A half-scale of monolithic precast wall panel (4000x1350x125) together with foundation beam (3000x500x465) is designed to
emulate the behaviour of a ductile cast-in-place concrete wall and designed accordance to New Zealand ...
Determination of probability distribution for data on rainfalland flood levels in Bangladesh
(The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia, 2005-03)
To evaluate flood (Discharge or water level) as well as rainfall frequency of given returns period, it is essential that one
probability distribution function be used as a standard. In many countries one distribution ...
Application of boundary element method for the analysis of potential flow field and wave resistance in finite depth of water
(The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia, 2004-03)
A boundary element method is presented for solving a nonlinear free surface flow problem for a ship moving with a uniform speed in
shallow water. The free surface boundary condition is linearized by the systematic method ...
