Abstract:

The paper aims is to investigate the relationship between the features of sukuk financing with energy efficiency in Malaysia. The study used a secondary data which are gathered from Bank Negara Bond InfoHub and Malaysia Energy Information Hub (MEIH) from 2014 until 2015. Throughout, this study uses multivariate regression analysis for dependent variable (DV): Energy efficiency and independent variables (IV): size of issues, coupon rate and yield to maturity. The result found that there is a significant impact between green sukuk financing towards energy sectors and positive relationship on size of issue and yield to maturity. The coupon rate has a negative relationship toward energy efficiency. Overall, the green sukuk financing directly have a contribution on energy efficiency in Malaysia by focusing on green sukuk projects financing in the Malaysia.

Abstract:

Hydroxyapatite (HAP) is a calcium phosphate based bioceramics and a basic mineral component of teeth and bones of vertebrates. Its chemical and crystallographic features are similar to the inorganic segment of bone. In this paper, the comparative crystallographic and morphological analyses of nanocrystalline HAP extracted from bovine bone by calcination treatment were reported. The characterizations of the extracted HAP were carried out by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). XRD analysis revealed that extracted HAP has a hexagonal crystal structure and crystallite size was in the range of 7.2-73.1 nm. Crystallinity degree and crystallite size gradually increased with the intensification of calcination temperature from 700-1100 °C. The lattice parameters and unit cell volume of extracted HAP were calculated using the standard least-squares equation and were analogous to reference ICCD (The International Centre for Diffraction Data) data. FESEM observation confirmed the hexagonal rod like structure. However, crystallographic and morphological properties of HAP extracted at different calcination temperatures (700°C, 900°C and 1100°C) are slightly different due to the presence of the important biological ions that are essential for bone growth. It is also revealed that the process of calcination prompts a change of the lattice parameter, resulting in lattice readjustment after the discharge of lattice carbonate and lattice water that cause an increase in crystallinity and crystal size.

Abstract:

This paper reports a field-scale study to detect differences in the amount of vegetation and chlorophyll content of crops using an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) fitted with a multispectral camera. The purpose of this study, on the experimental farm of Niigata University, Niigata, Japan, was to identify poorly-growing areas of vegetation that might require additional soil fertilizer. The normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) and normalized difference red edge (NDRE) were obtained from five spectral band images (red, green, blue, infrared (NIR) and red edge (REDGE)) that were processed by software into a full image map. We used the image map obtained to analyze the farmland and identify variations in the greenness of plants. We compared two layers with different indices and indicated differences in vegetation activity for NDVI and NDRE. NDVI showed visible green color wherever vegetation was present. With NDRE we observed crops with low chlorophyll content, indicating nitrogen limitation in the leaves. These observations demonstrate the efficacy of using NDRE as a sensitive index for monitoring chlorophyll content. Therefore, we propose that different indices may be most useful for different crops, plant density, seeding rates and growth stages.

Abstract:

During the last two decades, we easily see that the World Wide Web’s link structure is modeled as the directed graph. In this paper, we will model the World Wide Web’s link structure as the directed hypergraph. Moreover, we will develop the PageRank algorithm for this directed hypergraph. Due to the lack of the World Wide Web directed hypergraph datasets, we will apply the PageRank algorithm to the metabolic network which is the directed hypergraph itself. The experiments show that our novel PageRank algorithm is successfully applied to this metabolic network.

Abstract:

Protectors of motorcycle riders should be light and safe. This work deals with the impact test of the shoulder protectors, which differ with the use of foams of different densities. The acceleration and displacement of an impactor having the mass of five kilograms were measured. The impactor dropped from a height of one meter. For each sample, two impacts were used. The results show how the use of the different foams affects the deceleration of the impactor and the distance between the impactor and the base block (compression of the protector). Moreover, the results show how the deceleration and the distance change when the impact is repeated. The ideal protector would have low density, low maximum impact deceleration, low maximum protector compression, and its properties would not change when impact is repeated. The foam with good compromise properties was evaluated.

Abstract:

Basalt fibers (BF) have become intriguing nowadays for infrastructural and civil engineering applications due to the concern about mechanical properties, thermal and chemical resistance, and also environmental friendliness. Mass production of high-strength concrete (HSC) in Russia is mainly associated with the use of organomineral modifiers of the MB series, containing in their composition microsilica, fly ash, hardening regulator and superplasticizer C-3 in different ratios. In our study we produced HSC specimens (without BF, and with 1 wt.% chopped BF) using the modifier MB10-30, with the dimensions of 100x100x100 mm and 100x100x400 mm. The compressive strength, the tensile strength at bending, the strength at axial tension and the cracking moment, at the curing periods of 7, 14, 28, 60 days, have been determined. The results showed that the inclusion of BF in MB modifier based HSC resulted in a decrease in the compressive strength, however, significantly enhanced its tensile behavior.

Abstract:

In monolithic construction, when manufacturing reinforcing articles on a construction site, technological requirements for the bending of rods may not always be observed. In various regulatory documents, there are differences in the technological requirements for this operation. The article presents the results of studies of the stressstrain state of reinforcement in the manufacture of clamps, pins and other products related to the bending of rods. Normative requirements and calculated values of limiting relative deformations for various classes of reinforcement and mandrel diameters are given. The recommendations of norms on the diameters of rods and mandrels in the manufacture of bent rods are checked and refined. The relative elongations or shortening of the fibers of the rod are determined by the difference in arc lengths of the midline and arc at a distance x from the midline. According to the results of the work, graphs of the distribution of the relative elongations of the rods are presented for different diameters of the mandrels as a function of the distance from the axis of the section. Plastic deformations develop practically over the entire cross-sectional area of the rod. The use of mandrels with radius less than R = 5r at the bending of armatures А400 and А500S is connected by the risk of cracking, delamination or destruction of the rod. The use of mandrels made from reinforcing bars A240 with mandrels of radius R = 2r is unacceptable, since edge deformations reach 35%, which exceeds the normative values and leads to the destruction of the rod. Also, the boundaries of the ratio of mandrel diameters for smooth reinforcement A240 and periodic A500S are presented. The results of this study can be used in practical work, as well as to establish the minimum mandrel diameters when using new types of reinforcement with other physical and mechanical properties.

Abstract:

The location model is a familiar basis for discrimination dealing with mixed binary and continuous variables simultaneously. The binary variables create cells while the continuous variables are information that measures the difference between groups in each cell. But, if some of the created cells are empty, the classical location model rule is biased and sometimes infeasible. Interestingly, the analyses of previous studies have revealed that non-parametric smoothing approach succeeded in reducing the effects of some empty cells immensely. However, one practical drawback to the use of discrimination methods based on the location model is that the smoothing approach employed, its performance is severe when there are outliers in the data sample. The purpose of this paper is to extend these limitations of the location model with the presence of outliers and empty cells. Accordingly, a new location model rule called Winsorized smoothed location model is developed through the combination of Winsorization and non-parametric smoothing approach to address both issues of outliers and empty cells at once. Results from simulation manifests the improvement of the new rule as the rates of misclassification are dramatically declined even the data contains outliers for all 36 different simulation data settings. Findings from real dataset, full breast cancer, also clearly show that the newly developed Winsorized smoothed location model achieves the best performance compared to over than 10 existing discrimination methods. These revealed that the newly derived rule further enhanced the applicability range of the location model, as previously it was limited to the non-contaminated datasets to achieve tolerable performance. The overall investigation verifying the new rule developed offers practitioners another potential good methodology for discrimination tasks, as the rule very favourably compared to all its competitors except only one.

Abstract:

Augmented Reality (AR) is amongst the potential technologies that gives advantages especially in education setting. The AR environment is unique since it combines real and virtual objects, interactive in real time and registered in 3- dimension. Nowadays, Jawi seems to be forgotten by our young generation. Until now, those who love and are interested to learn and use Jawi are difficult to find. Even the traditional ways of learning Jawi in schools cannot help much to solve this problem or to attract students to love Jawi. The design and development of AR application is different from the traditional application. Understanding the design requirements or process helps the developers to produce useful, interactive and usable AR applications. This article discusses the process of designing an interactive interface for mobile Jawi Augmented Reality (AR) application for students in Sekolah Rendah Agama (SRA) JAIS. The study is conducted through the analysis, documentations, previous works and interviews with teachers in SRA JAIS. The study highlights the process of the designing phase, conceptual model of Jawi AR, the structure design of Jawi AR content, and the flowchart for learning Jawi prototype. The output or findings from relevant designing phase will be proposed as a guideline for a development of mobile Jawi AR application.

Abstract:

Ceramic products derived from the bones of non-halal animal have become an issue for Muslims in terms of its uncertainty status for years. This research quantify 11 elements in Bone China with different percentages of bone ashes and porcelain (a ceramic body without bone ashes) performed by Inductively Coupled - Atomic Emission Spectroscopy Plasma (Shimadzu -ICPE 9800 )for Co, Cu, Fe, Ag, Al, K, Na, Si, P and Flame Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy ( FAAS Agilent , 240FS-AA) for Ca and Mg elements. Chemometric Analysis analyzed contents of concentration for inorganic minerals and trace elements in Bone China and Porcelain sample by Principle Component Analysis (PCA), Factor Analysis (FA) and Agglomerative Hierarchical Clustering (AHC). The Principle Component Analysis (PCA) biplot indicated strong correlation between P-Ca-Mg inorganic minerals with Bone China bodies incorporated of bone ashes from 30% to 50%. Factor analysis of the first two factors F1 and F2 from eigenvalue represent 80% of the initial variability of the data confirming good quality projection. Clustering was determined by Agglomerative Hierarchical Clustering (AHC) analysis for Bone China with bone ashes in higher percentages clustered together while the Bone China with 10-20% bone ashes clustered together with porcelain depicted through distinctive hierarchical pattern.

Abstract:

Previous studies found that different types of game had different effects on the subjects especially on learning, academic performance, emotion, health, and behavior. Many studies used games as a tool in therapy treatment and rehabilitation. This study aims to determine the effects of two types of game by examining physiological responses. This cross-sectional study involved 32 typical children. The types of game that were used were Cut The Rope and Sonic Dash representing strategy and action genres respectively. Powerlab 4/26T and a digital sphygmomanometer were used to measure physiological signals such as heart (HR), breathing (BR) and pulse rates and blood pressure. All of the psychophysiological readings were measured before and after playing the strategy and action games. The study involved 59% boys and 41% girls. Based on the age categorization, 59% were children aged 10-12 years old and 41% were 7-9 years old. There was a mean difference in the pre- and post-gameplay diastolic blood pressure for action games (p<0.05). Furthermore, there was a mean difference in the pre- and post-gameplay systolic and diastolic readings for the two types of game (F= 7.133, p=0.01). All of the physiological readings were within the normal range. In conclusion, this study suggests that playing these types of game may be used as a therapeutic tool in cognitive rehabilitation.
