This research aimed to analyze multiple underwater Piezoelectric Micro Ultrasonic Transducer (PMUT) models using several types of piezoelectric materials. The models were based on the basic structure of circular and square PMUT. Each structure was designed with and without a supporting layer of silicon dioxide. Due to limited literature and structured database of PMUT, the researchers use more time and cost through a try-and-error approach. This study analyzes the receiving and transmitting sensitivity of the PMUT. Circular and square PMUT, with and without supporting layers were designed and simulated using six different piezoelectric materials namely aluminum nitride, lithium niobate, lead zirconate titanate type 5A (PZT-5A), lead zirconate titanate type 5H (PZT-5H), quartz and zinc oxide. FEA simulation and modeling were carried out using the COMSOL Multiphysics 5.0 software. The models were analyzed based on structural and electro-acoustic parameters including thickness, radius, le.....

This research aimed to identify the effects of Perceived Ease of Use (PEOU), Readiness (RD), and Resource Availability (RA) on the intention to adopt the Internet of Things (IoT) for marketing among Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in Selangor. Selangor was chosen due to its high concentration of SMEs, making it the state with the largest number of such enterprises in Malaysia. A quantitative survey was conducted, using a sample of 387 respondents consisting of Chief Executive Officers, Board Members, and Managers who serve as decision-makers within these SMEs. The sample was identified through simple random sampling, descriptive data analysis, correlation, and multiple linear regression were applied to assess the effects of the variables. The findings revealed positive relationships between IoT adoption and PEOU (r = 0.921, n = 387, p < .001), RD (r = 0.892, n = 387, p < .001), and RA (r = 0.686, n = 387, p < .001). The high R-Square value of .993 significant F statistic confirm th.....

The paper discusses the development of the agricultural production model for the agricultural sector based on the model suggested by the Libyan Government underlining the country policy in promoting this sector. The development of this agricultural production model is through the method of Cobb Douglas production function. As a step of precaution, the robust partial least squares is incorporated in the Cobb Douglas production model to avoid the effect of multicollinearity and outliers in the data. The new model is known as Robust Partial Least Squares of Cobb Douglas Production Function (RPLS-CDF). This study shows that the RPLSCDF overcomes the problem in Cobb Douglas production model when multicollinearity and the outliers exist in the data as compared to the conventional method namely the log transformation. It is found that the pernicious effect of the outliers have been reduced considerably by the proposed robust estimators. Keywords Cobb Douglas Production Function, Robust Parti.....

Tin-doped float glass samples were made by remelting the float glass with varying amounts of tin(II) oxalate (SnC2O4) under ordinary conditions. These samples mimic in terms of tin content, the tin oxide distribution found along the tin diffusion region of float glass. The effect of tin oxides (SnO and SnO2) content on thermal expansion, density, refractive index and microhardness of tin-doped float glass samples were found to be related to SnO acting as modifier oxide and SnO2 as intermediate oxide. Keyword Tin-doped float glass, modifier oxide, intermediate oxide, physical properties of float glass..

We generalized the Kaluza-Klein theory of massive real scalar spin-0 field in five dimensions with self-interaction term _4 . Fifth coordinate undergoes compactification and periodical. In potential term, we derived the self-interaction of different modes of field with strength 2_ and the complete Lagrangian. We determined the mass of field related to their modes. We also discussed the dimensional reduction D = 5 _ D = 4 of real scalar field, where in four dimensional spacetime we just observed the five dimensional zero mode of real scalar field. Keywords Kaluza-Klein theory, real scalar spin-0 field, five dimensions..

The purpose of this descriptive study was to evaluate the intellectual level of application in observing and sketching skills in laboratory practical class of Biology and Agricultural Science first year student teachers at Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris. It was conducted to find means to improve the learning of plant anatomy by determining observing and sketching skills. A total of 40 student teachers were given monocotyledon (Zea mays) and dicotyledon (Helianthus sp.) leaf cross-section slides, which were then observed under the microscope and the images, were sketched. These skills were evaluated using two performance indicator scales data sheet modified from performance indicator scales modified from the Pentaksiran Kerja Amali Biologi SPM (PEKA) and were analysed using SPSS 16.0 for Windows. The result of the research showed that the level of application for observing skill was moderately high (mean = 2.08, SD = 0.7), while the level of application for sketching skill was moder.....

Kajian ini dijalankan untuk mengenal pasti alergen utama kepada masalah kesensitifan alergi dalam kalangan Penduduk Bandar (PB) dan Penduduk Orang Asli (POA) di Tanjong Malim, Daerah Batang Padang, Perak. Seramai 323 orang penduduk bandar dan 141 orang penduduk orang asli telah ditemu bual untuk mendapatkan maklumat tentang sejarah kesensitifan mereka. Seterusnya ujian cucuk kulit telah dijalankan ke atas responden untuk mengenal pasti kesensitifan alergik mereka terhadap 45 jenis alergen. Kajian mendapati prevalens kesensitifan terhadap sekurang-kurangnya satu jenis alergen bagi PB mengatasi POA. Kesensitifan makanan didominasi oleh makanan laut (udang dan ketam) bagi kedua-dua PB dan POA. Kesensitifan inhalens yang tertinggi ialah terhadap tungau debu rumah diikuti lipas, bulu haiwan dan rumput. Reaksi kesensitifan PB kepada produk lebah lebih ketara berbanding POA. Kesensitifan inhalens seperti tungau debu rumah, lipas dan bulu haiwan dalam kalangan kanak-kanak orang asli lebih rend.....

In this study, the in vitro tissue culture of the Sinningia speciosa callus was established at 25_1 _C with light intensity 1000 _mol m-2 sec-1 and 70-80% relative humidity with a 16/8h light/dark photoperiod. Additionally, gamma radiation of 10-60 Gy was applied and the effects of gamma rays on growth of Sinningia speciosa callus tissue were investigated. A 100% callus initiation was observed in petal explants cultured on MS medium supplemented with combinations of 0.5 mg L-1 NAA and 2.0 mg L-1 BAP resulted in 100% callus induction after being cultured for 4 weeks. This medium was considered optimal medium for callus induction because it can produce normal growing healthy callus. Callus growth was based on callus weight and changing textures and colour of callus; determined following exposure of the calli to different doses of gamma rays. Results obtained indicated that callus growth was reduced when the dose of radiation was increased. It was found that increasing doses of gamma radi.....
