Biomedical engineering, a carrer path with a bright future
(The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia (IEM), 2020-03)
Deformation responses of extruded zinc alloy
(The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia (IEM), 2022)
Severe plastic deformation (SPD) is a technique used to obtain ultra-fine grains (UFGs). However, this technology is expensive and time-consuming. In this study, the conventional deformation technique is used to examine ...
A review on concrete hollow block walls: materials and mechanical properties
(The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia (IEM), 2022)
Concrete hollow blocks are commonly used in building construction, particularly for multi-story buildings, factories, and residential structures. Hollow blocks are more practical because of their lightweight, and the most ...
The past, present & future of concrete construction
(The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia (IEM), 2021)
Concrete has always been the major construction material since the historical past, at present and will continue into the future. This presentation covers the period from the first UK design code (CP 114, 1957) in UK to ...
Teaching pedagogy for engineering educations
(The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia (IEM), 2021)
In this paper, the teaching philosophies for electrical and electronics engineering education are presented. Being academics in the tertiary institutions emphasis should be placed in the education of knowledge, the constant ...
The impact of direct lightning strike damages on PV modules in a large Malaysian PV farm
(The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia (IEM), 2021)
Many lightning risk analyses avoided considering the role of the PV Module’s aluminium frame as a natural lightning air termination system or if such a role is considered, assumed that the ‘thin’ aluminium frame, would not ...
Trent study on Covid-19 pandemic lockdown impact on rivers in Selangor, Malaysia
(The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia (IEM), 2022)
According to the Department of Environment, numerous rivers, and streams in Selangor, and practically all rivers, are in the 'polluted' and ‘slightly polluted' category even before the COVID-19 outbreak. Due to a lack of ...
Foundation earthing system - its application and electrical safety considerations
(The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia (IEM), 2022)
Foundation earthing system greatly reduces the resistance to ground as compared to driven earthing rods. Low resistance to ground is desirable to protect lives – it ensures automatic disconnection of power supply in the ...
IOT platform for vital signs detection using node microcontroller
(The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia (IEM), 2022)
Using IoT technology to monitor patients' vital signs can help limit the spread of the coronavirus. Therefore, a cost-effective remote monitoring system measuring vital signs is proposed. Dual heart rate and oxygen level ...
Lightning shielding with shading avoidance for a photovoltaic (PV) farm
(The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia (IEM), 2022)
The special requirement of a PV farm lightning shielding system is that it should not introduce shadow on the active PV surfaces so as to avoid impaired PV generation output. By using a simple, repeatable-unit PV row made ...
