At different locations, the output is limited by these two factors, together with the type of solar module used. The single-diode model is studied in this research. The output characteristics or the maximum power that can be generated by the Figure 1 selected solar module is simulated under real time inputs of solar irradiance and ambient temperature. Significant correlations were found between the simulated results and the measured field data. The developed simulation tool can be beneficial in forecasting the power output generated by a solar module system at a specific location without the need for actual installation. This can potentially help in the cost-benefit analysis for a solar-based project at a particular location.

Underground cables have long been considered the better option for energy transmission besides overhead lines due to fact that they are not exposed to environmental degradations which in turn may last up to 40 years. Nevertheless, occasional surges due to the aforementioned factors could possibly affect the performance of an underground cable by accelerating the degradation process of its components. In addition, these transients can also propagate along the length of the cable; causing significant voltage build-up at the junctions in which if not controlled, can lead to total disruption of power transmission. Thus, it is very important to understand the impacts of a transient phenomenon when it occurs along an underground cable with a specific construction and geometry. This research work attempts to analyze transient behaviour occurring within underground cables. The first part of the Figure 1 46 work would be on the understanding of the most common transient surges and classify the likelihood of occurrence within an underground cable. The knowledge on this will be the platform for the work to artificially simulate the transient signals based the concept of circuit equivalence. In addition, the parameters representing the cable will also be studied as part of the work since they will directly affect the response of the transient signals. From this study, the transient behaviour will be analyzed using PSCAD and RSCAD simulation tools. The simulation work will allow a more conclusive understanding on how a transient signal might propagate along a cable and whether there is a need to mitigate such behaviour. The final part of the work is to evaluate the effects of transient signals in a complete electrical network in order to assess the need of protection systems and to recommend the optimum design for it. Figure 2 RESEARCH DIRECTORY: COLLEGE of ENGINEERING 2013 Project Leader: Dr. Cheah Cheng Lai Funding: ERGS Contact address: [email protected] Hardware Implementation of Adaptive Error Correction Technique for Wireless Sensor Networks Wireless sensor network (WSN) is a low data rate, low power consumption, and low cost wireless networking protocol targeted towards automation and remote control applications. In wireless communications there are a variety of noises and fading which may cause errors. When an error occurs at a sensor node, the node will request for re-transmission of the faulty packets which will reduce the network bandwidth and increase the power consumption.Forward error correction (FEC) is a technique that can be used to mitigate errors in WSN. The simplest method of deploying FEC is by using a fixed code. However, this will cause unnecessary consumption of FEC overhead bandwidth even when there is no error. An adaptive error correction technique can be used to optimize the utilization of FEC overhead over the limited bandwidth of WSN. However, most existing adaptive FEC techniques for wireless communications change to a stronger code only when an error has already occurred. weaker or a stronger code before an error occur. The hardware experimental system has been set up to study the performance of the proposed technique. The performance of the proposed technique is to mitigate errors under different error condition, increase the network bandwidth and to reduce the power consumption being investigated.The arrangement consists of two computers and two 2.4 GHz radio frequency (RF) transceivers. Each computer is connected to an RF transceiver. Computer 1 will be used as the controller for sensor node 1 which will process and encode the payload using the proposed technique before sending the encoded data to the RF transceiver for transmission. Computer 2 will be used as the controller for sensor node 2. Upon the arrival of the encoded data, Computer 2 will decode and process the data using the proposed technique. The Texas Instrument CC2520 2.4 GHz IEEE 802.15.4/ ZigBee RF transceiver can be used as the RF transceiver as it can encapsulate the data using the IEEE 802.15.4 standard format before the transmission. This paper explores the hardware implementation of an adaptive error correction technique using the received signal strength indication (RSSI) as the input parameter such that the technique can switch to a Figure 1 47 2013 UNITEN RESEARCH PROFILE Project Leader: Dr. Ewe Lay Sheng Contact address: [email protected] Fabrication of New Read Head for Magnetic Recording Devices Based High Sintering Magnetoresistive Perovskite Manganites Nd1-xSrxMnO3 manganite system has been studied to understand the effects of grain shape on the electrical, magneto resistance and magneto transport properties in different strontium doping level. The materials were prepared via solid state reaction method at Sr doping concentration x = 0.12, 0.152, 0.22, 0.252 and 0.32. All samples had the same orthorhombic structure and no impurities were detected when examined by X-ray diffraction. The range of grain size was found to be between 10.0 µm – 16.0 µm for all samples. Sample with x = 0.32 possesses the smallest grain size and To values, where To value reflects the bending of MnO-Mn bond angle. In addition, with the increase of strontium doping, most of the grains transformed into pentagon and hexagon shapes. The insulator metal transition temperature, Tim was found to increase (a) (b) Figure 1 48 from ~ 131 K to 180 K as the doping concentration increased except for samples doped with x = 0.152 and 0.252. The charge ordering was found to occur at ~120 K for samples x = 0.152 and 0.252 respectively. It is worth noting that the grains growth with more pentagon and hexagon shapes can shift the Tim to higher temperature region (x = 0.32). The magneto resistance (MR) values were found to increase with the increasing magnetic field. Sample doped with x = 0.32 recorded the highest MR (~ 31.5%), the highest Tim ,the smallest grain size and the least bending of Mn-O-Mn bonding angle.

Prof. Ismail Bin Said Funding: MOHE (RM116,000.00) Contact address: [email protected] Study of Fast-charger in Off-grid Solar Charging Station for Electric Vehicles Electric vehicles (EV) are more efficient than internal combustion engines (ICE), with 33% of total energy supplied being converted to motion for EV and 7% for ICE. To be more effective, the energy used to charge the batteries for the EV should come from renewable energy sources such as photovoltaic, rather than from the grid, which still has some percentage of fossil fuel used in electricity generation. This project is aimed at designing, construction and testing of an off-grid, fast-charging system that is capable of charging EV batteries in less than 20 minutes. A fast charging system is a pre-requisite for full EV acceptance, as the waiting period of EV battery charging has not been at an acceptable level by consumers especially for long-distance travel. Due to high current needed in fast-charging, this project will explore several charger topologies and charging algorithms that are reliable and will not be detrimental to EV batteries. An assessment will also be made on the performance and reliability of other charging station equipment such as solar panels, maximum power-point trackers (MPPT), batteries and inverters, used in conjunction with the designed fast charger. Figure 1 Figure 2 49 2013 UNITEN RESEARCH PROFILE Project Leader: Jawaid Iqbal Inayat-Hussain Funding: FRGS (RM38,000.00) Contact address: [email protected] Fundamental Research on the Utilization of Chaos Theory for Diagnosis of Malfunctions in Rotating Machinery Chaos theory has been widely and successfully applied in the biomedical and economics fields, particularly to characterize the ECG signal in the former, and to perform market analysis and forecasting in the latter. The dynamics of the ECG signal and financial market data is not dissimilar to that of the vibration signal from rotating machinery experiencing certain types of fault, and thus suggesting that the chaos theory could potentially be applied to monitor and diagnose the progression of these faults. The techniques presently and widely used for the condition monitoring and fault diagnosis of rotating machinery are based on the assumptions that these faults are linear in nature. These techniques, which include time waveform and spectrum analysis, have been proven to be successful for the identification of common faults in rotating machinery such as rotor imbalance and misalignment. However, other machinery faults that are known to cause chaotic vibration response, for example, rotorto-stator rub, looseness of machine components and oil whip, may not be correctly diagnosed using these existing techniques. This project is proposed with the objective to overcome the deficiencies in the existing techniques for condition monitoring and fault diagnosis of rotating machinery. Some available invariant quantities to characterize chaos such as Lyapunov exponent and correlation dimension will be adopted and utilized for monitoring the condition and diagnosing of rotor-to-stator fault in rotating machinery. Preliminary work on the application of these techniques on numerically generated data of established nonlinear systems has shown promising results. Laboratory verification of the improved techniques will be made on an experimental rig that has been built to incorporate rotor-to-stator rub fault that isknown to cause chaotic rotor response. It is envisaged that the successful implementation of these techniques will directly benefit the users of rotating machinery in terms of reduced down-time as well as avoidance of potential catastrophic failures.

Abdul Malek Funding: MOHE (RM 85,240.00) Contact address: [email protected] Development of Daily Rainfall Prediction Model Using Clonal Selection Algorithm in Artificial Immune System This study presents the training, testing and prediction processes of daily rainfall data at several rainfall stations in Selangor, using Clonal Selection Algorithm (CSA). CSA is part of Artificial Immune System (AIS) which adapts the idea of clonal selection theory in human immune system. The parameter used in this analysis is 100 numbers of detectors, where it was found that numbers of detector ranging from 100 to 1000 produces similar results. The data analyzed in this study was from January 1990 until December 2011. Results produced from the generated rainfall data were compared with actual rainfall data at the testing stage. It was found that both the trend and peaks of the hydrographs of the generated data were approximately the same as the actual data. The high values of similarity percentage between generated and actual data obtained in this study reinforce the hypothesis that CSA is suitable to be used as prediction model for a continuous time series data which is very noisy and chaotic in nature such as daily rainfall data. 51 2013 UNITEN RESEARCH PROFILE Project Leader: Assoc. Prof. Dr. Md. Mujibur Rahman Funding: ERGS (RM78,000.00) Contact address: [email protected] Characterization of Sintering Schedule for Warm Compacted Components Sintering is a heat treatment process for bonding particles together into a coherent, predominantly solid structure via mass transport events. Such bonding improves the strength and other engineering properties of powder compacts. The standard way of performing the sintering operation is to subject the parts to a high temperature in a controlled atmosphere using a sintering furnace [1]. The process is known as free sintering since no mechanical stress is applied on the parts. The effect of sintering is the change of inter-particle contact, which begins with rapid growth between particles because of the cold welding taken place in the green compact. At this stage, the void volume is reduced and finally as the surface tension and diffusion continues, the spheroidization of isolated pores occurs and it results in a relatively homogenous component [2]. Correct sintering is of paramount importance to the powder metallurgy process to ensure not only the development of the strength needed for the part to fulfill its intended role as an engineering component, but also that the dimensions of the parts are correct [3]. The metal powder is generally mixed with a polymeric lubricant prior to the generation of defect-free yet high density green compacts to be sintered. During the sintering, the lubricant is burnt out due to its 52 low melting temperature which causes uneven density distribution and dimensional distortion if the sintering is not conducted through proper schedule [4-5]. Therefore, the objective of this project is to characterize the sintering schedule, i.e., heating rate, holding time and temperature, and cooling rate for warm compacted components. The main powder constituents i.e. iron powder ASC100.29 will be mechanically mixed with different wt% of zinc stearate (polymeric lubricant) for 10 to 60 minutes. The powder mass will be shaped at various forming parameters to generate defect-free green compacts which will subsequently be sintered at inert gas fired furnace at different sintering schedules. The sintered products will be characterized through dimensional measurement, mechanical testing and microstructure evaluation to assess the effect of sintering schedule to the mechanical properties and microstructure of the samples. The expected outcome of this research project is the fundamental knowledge on the behavior of warm compacted metallic components sintered at inert gas fired atmosphere.

The objective of this work is to model building structure, including equipments of HVAC system. The hybrid HVAC model is built with physical and empirical functions of thermal inertia quantity. Physical laws are used to build the sub-model for subsystems that have low thermal inertia while the empirical method is used to build the sub-model for subsystems with high thermal inertia. The Residential Load Factor (RLF) is modeled by Residential Heat Balance (RHB). RLF is required to calculate a cooling/heating load depending upon the indoor/outdoor temperature. The transparency, functionality of indoor/outdoor temperatures and simplicity of RLF makes it suitable for modeling. Furthermore, the parameters of the model can be calculated differently from room to room and are appropriate for variable air volume (VAV) factor. Nowadays, a VAV system is universally accepted as means of achieving both energy efficiency and comfortable building environment. In this research work, a pre-cooling coil is added to humidify the incoming air, which controls the humidity more efficiently inside conditioned space. The model presented here will be verified with both theoretical and numerical methods. Advanced Multi Input Multi Output (MIMO) nonlinear control which will be tuned online based on self organizing method to overcome uncertain disturbance will also be developed. This controller will deal perfectly with undesirable characteristics of the developed HVAC system mode and track the desirable references. Established and also self-developed tuning methods will be applied on the controller to determine the convergence rate and practicality of the controller.

Therefore, energy storage system will be required to level the power output from fluctuating renewable sources such as Photovoltaic (PV) and wind. This project aims to design and develop a 2-kW bidirectional isolated dc-dc converter that will perform the power conversion of a battery energy storage system in order to level the fluctuating PV output. The feasibility of the energy storage system when connected to the ultility grid will be investigated in terms of operability, total harmonic distortions, and losses. A feedback control system will be employed to charge and discharge the battery based on the PV PV output. Energy storage will be charged when the PV generation is more than required and energy storage will be discharged when the PV generation is less than required by the utility side. Figure 1 shows the block diagram of a PV system with battery energy storage. In this project, the main concern will be given to development of the bidirectional isolated dc-dc converter and controller. Figure 2 shows the topology of the employed bidirectional isolated dc-dc converter. Required power can be achieved by simple phase shift modulation.

Consequently, in a rapidly developing country like Malaysia, the demand of energy for lighting has increased tremendously. Due to this high demand of energy for lighting, HighBrightness Light-Emitting Diode (HBLED) has become a new source of light, as it can emit as much amount of light as incandescent bulb and fluorescent lamp with lesser energy consumption, is environmental friendly and sustainable. The primary objective of this project is to build a high reliability and highefficiency HBLED driver with galvanic isolation and current regulation. Figure 1 shows the overall HBLED driver system in order to achieve the primary objective. This research is significant as it can bring a lot of benefits to the consumers and industries in terms of energy saving and maintenance fee saving.

Numerous indoor location sensing techniques based on various technolgies such as IrDA, WLAN, Bluetooth, Ultra Wide Band (UWB) and ZigBee have been developed and studied. However, indoor location sensing techniques developed based on single technology has its fallback. Prediction of accuracy, precision and reliability remains as primary issue surrounding the practicality indoor location 56 sensing system. This research project aims to develop an indoor location sensing model that integrates three (3) technologies, namely WLAN, ZigBee and RFID. A lab based environment will be developed for the integrated indoor location sensing model to test and validate the functionality. The integrated model will be analyzed comprehensively on accuracy, precision, complexity and reliability. RESEARCH DIRECTORY: COLLEGE of ENGINEERING 2013 Project Leader: Assoc. Prof. Dr. Nasri A. Hamid Funding: MOSTI (RM227,000.00) Contact address: [email protected] Development of a Superconducting Wind Turbine Generator Prototype for Generation of Electricity from Wind The rapid economic growth of Malaysia is mostly propelled by the growth in the industrial sector, which depends on the availability of cheap energy supply. However, the reserve of oil and gas which has been the main sources of energy in Malaysia is fast depleting. To ensure the availability and security of energy to fuel the economic growth, alternative sources of energy for electricity generation is needed. One of the potential sources of alternative sources of energy is the wind energy. However, with the existing Malaysian wind characteristics, the availability of reliable and consistent source of wind is very scarce and the capability of the conventional wind turbine to maximize the harvesting of wind is doubtful. Therefore, the need of a reliable and sustainable wind turbine is necessary to enhance energy production of a wind farm. From our previous work on superconducting motor, the performance of the superconducting motor is very much superior as compared to the conventional motor in terms of efficiency and energy saving. Based on the positive Terminal results and performance of the superconducting motor, it is expected that the application of superconducting wind turbine generator is able to complement the Malaysian wind characteristics to ensure sustainability of wind energy for electricity generation. This project includes multidisciplinary areas of physics, materials, mechanical and electrical engineering. The development of the superconducting wind turbine covers the designing concept of superconducting generator and wind turbine, setting up of control circuit of the design concept, and testing the wind turbine generator with special emphasis on the Malaysian wind characteristics. This project has high novelty since such wind turbine has never been developed in this region in which the weather and wind condition is different. Thus, the crucial contribution of the superconducting wind turbine generator is mainly on efficiency and sustainability.

In voice and video conferencing, users expect that what they say or do will be transmitted instantly to the other end of the connection, as if the two parties were in the same room, also called as real time communication. The most overwhelming challenge in wireless voice and video conferencing is to transmit the voice and video over wireless channels, which takes up large amount of bandwidth requirement. Hence, the compression of voice and video signal is essential, in order to increase the bandwidth efficiency. One of the codec used to compress voice signal is Adaptive Multi Rate Wideband (AMR-WB), which provides superior speech quality. The conventional way of voice transmission over noisy channels is by introducing redundancy for error protection after voice compression, which is known as forward error correction (FEC). Alternatively, 58 the artificial redundancy for error protection may be inserted prior to the voice encoder stage. This project aims to investigate the performance of a real-time wireless speech transceiver, which invokes over-complete expansion by introducing symbolbased redundancy prior to the AMR-WB encoder. More explicitly, a structured redundancy based on the discrete Fourier transform (DFT), the discrete cosine transform (DCT) and the discrete Hadamard transform (DHT) are inserted for error protection prior to quantization by employing the principle of block coding. At the receiver, the soft-bit assisted AMR-WB codec exploiting the concept of soft speech bits is employed to provide additional error protection. Therefore, an algorithm will be developed to exploit the explicit redundancy introduced in the continuousamplitude domain by the soft-bit decoder.

The insulation is subjected to various types of stresses and these will all lead to changes on the structure of the material on a molecular level. When this happens, the dielectric now is no longer homogeneous as impurities such as water molecules and vapour may be present within the material itself. This would then affect the capability of the material to insulate the high voltage cable. Thus it is very important to monitor the changes of the dielectric properties in order to assess its performance as an insulator. One of the ways to analyse the dielectric response of an insulating material is by using a technique known as the polarization/depolarization current (PDC) analysis. The technique works by subjecting the dielectric with low levels of voltage and analysing the current during the polarization and depolarization processes. Conventionally, PDC Figure 1 measurements are used to analyze the moisture content in power transformers. For cables however, the analysis is not straightforward since the inception of water in an underground cable is complex in nature. Thus there is great emphasis nowadays to undertake various diagnostic tests on the insulation of the underground cable as the cost of repairing damaged cable is very substantial. This research work emphasizes on forecasting dielectric response in a cable through the simulation of the theories relating to the PDC processes. From the simulation results, the response can be compared with the experimental measurements obtained by different researchers. It is hoped that this work could give a reliable indication on the severity of insulation degradation due to the presence of water. Figure 2 59 2013 UNITEN RESEARCH PROFILE Project leader: Nur Irmawati Bt Om Funding: RM 81,000.00 Contact address: [email protected] Experimental Hydrodynamics Study of Microchannel Heat Sink by Means of Quantitative Flow Visualization Technique The rapid development of microfluidic microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) has resulted in great interest in the understanding of flow behavior in microchannels due to their importance in such applications as microelectronics cooling, drug delivery, biotechnical analyses, and telecommunication technologies. The fluid flow characteristics of microchannels are important to the design of microfluidic devices, and thus this topic is of significant importance to the further development of microfluidic MEMS devices. Because of this importance, researchers have been working in this area since the 1980s, and many interesting, yet often times conflicting, results have been reported. In many previous studies [1,2], researchers measured the friction factor or Nusselt number in microchannel flow and compared the results with conventional theory. To enhance heat transfer in microchannel, some researchers have studied the use of nanofluid [3]. This work will use microscopic particle image velocimetry (microPIV) to obtain instantaneous velocity field data for flow through square microchannels. In micro-PIV, seed particle size must be small enough to faithfully follow the flow without disrupting the flow field, clogging the device, and producing unnecessarily large images. At the same time, particles must be large enough to be adequately imaged. The local velocity inside the channels was measured where the flow was seeded with fluorescent particles. A pulse laser source was used to illuminate the PIV particles. The observation was carried out utilizing an objective with calculated depth of correlation. The experiments will be performed at various flow rates corresponding to Reynolds numbers. For each set of experiments, sufficient time will be allowed to pass after starting the pump to allow the flow to reach steady state. For smaller flow rates, it took a longer time to reach a steady state compared to higher flow rates.

The objectives of the study are to quantify and compare the energy input and output, and to assess the carbon footprint over the entire life cycle of WCO biodiesel which will be produced using in-situ rapid processing technology and utilizing feedstock from in-campus eatery centers. A proper waste mechanism system will be implemented to collect WCO from eatery centers, which will be aggregated and processed into biodiesel. Biodiesel produced using the innovative mobile rapid processing technology developed by the university will then be blended with diesel prior to utilization by selected in-campus fleet. A reference unit will run on conventional diesel as a comparison to the test unit which will run on 20% biodiesel blend. Inventory of material flow and energy associated with the collection, production and fuel utilization will be established for impact assessment. The results on net energy use will be calculated by comparing the energy input and energy output over the entire lifecycle. Biodiesel has the potential to reduce CO2 emission and other hazardous gaseous with global warming potential (GWP) and these quality will be assesed from the carbon footprint evaluation. In conclusion, this study will provide scientific evidence for indigenous technology implantations through the energy impact assessment and environmental feasibility that can be proliferated at other site with similar system boundaries including nationwide. 61 2013 UNITEN RESEARCH PROFILE Project Leader: Prem A/L Gunnasegaran Funding: FRGS (RM63,280.00) Contact address: [email protected] Inverse Heat Transfer Formulation on Compact Heat Exchanger Using Infrared Thermography Camera Plate finned-tube heat exchangers, which are commonly considered as compact heat exchanger (CHE) are intensively used in many industrial processes. The performances of this kind of heat exchanger are directly linked to the air-side thermal resistance. On the air side, the heat transfer surface is usually expanded using continuous fins. Automotive heat exchangers often consist of multiple rows of flattened tubes with continuous or louvered fins. The fluid flow structure between the fins depends strongly on the geometrical parameters, in line or staggered tube arrangements, tube spacing, tube shape, tube diameter and fin spacing. The research of inverse heat conduction problems, has offered methods largely to reduce the experimental work to obtain accurate heat transfer measurements in many heat conduction problems. One of the approaches is the conjugate gradient method which transforms the energy equation, the so called ‘‘direct problem’’, into an adjoint and a sensitivity equation and solves these three equations iteratively to minimize the estimation error. Conversely, an inverse forced convection problem considers the fluid domain instead of the solid domain, and the convection heat transfer coefficient is no longer required on the boundaries. This approach is capable to offer accurate heat transfer rates without the knowledge of the solid material domain. The main disadvantage, however, is that an inverse forced convection problem is much more complicated numerically because there are more equations to be solved in the direct problem. In this proposed study an experimental technique that uses advanced infrared thermography system will be employed together with an estimation algorithm to predict the local convective heat transfer coefficients of finned surfaces of a CHE.

In recent years, there have been several studies on the use of liquid flow in microchannels to enhance the cooling process of many industrial processes. More recently, research has been focused on the use of nanofluid as coolant to further enhance the heat transfer process in microchannels. Nanofluids, liquid containing suspended metallic particle materials with average sizes below 100 nm, has been proven to exhibit superior heat transfer capabilities compared to conventional coolants . The heat transfer enhancement, however, is expected to come together with higher energy required to pump the liquid in the system. In addition to the various thermophysical properties associated with the coolant, the geometrical properties of the microchannels can have great influence on the fluid flow and heat transfer inside the microchannels. Due to the complexities of the problem at the micro-scale (from both experimental and numerical simulaton point of view), most previous studies in the literature have been limited to the laminar flow regime. In addition, many previous studies have reported inconsistensies between experimental and numerical results on the prediction of the flow transition region (in terms of the Reynolds number) from laminar to turbulent. The present work attempts to fill this existing gap. In this project, turbulent flow and heat transfer characteristics in microchannels will be investigated both using experimental and computational means. Effects of channel shapes, coolant Reynolds number, heat sources and friction factor are to be investigated using working fluids, of water Al2O3-H2O (alumina-water) and nanofluid. The outcome of the research includes prediction of the laminar-turbulent transition region in the microchannel flow. The results gained in this investigation will be useful in many industrial and natural processes, in which the knowledge on the turbulent heat transfer behavior is of uttermost importance. 63 2013 UNITEN RESEARCH PROFILE Project Leader: Assoc. Prof. Dr. Shahida Begum Funding: e-Science (RM312,000.00) Contact address: [email protected] Development of High Performance TiO2 Based Varistor Materials with New Dopants and Binder Varistor are ceramic materials which have unique nonlinear current-voltage behavior that is used in circuits to protect the system against transient surge. Varistors behave in a non ohmic behavior in which a varistor has 3 different regions. The most important region is the non linear region or the breakdown region which helps to protect the electrical and electronic equipments. There are various types of varistor materials like SiC, ZnO and SnO2 available in the market. However, current trends require varistor to have more function such as low breakdown voltage and high permittivity. Technology today drives for smaller integrated circuits which requires low voltage applications. SiC, ZnO and SnO2 are unable to meet this requirement. Hence, TiO2 is an emerging new material that can satisfy this new functional demand. However, TiO2 alone cannot perform that function without addition of small amount of impurity. In this project, development of TiO2 varistor material with various dopants will be investigated. TiO2 base varistor material has promising potential as high performance varistor. Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) ceramic powder has been doped with various dopants like Tungsten Oxide (WO3), Bismuth Oxide (Bi2O3), Cobalt Oxide (Co3O4), Silicon Dioxide (SiO2) and Tantalum Pentaoxide (Ta2O5). The percentages of dopants were varied at various levels. In addition, binders like PVA, PEG and Duramax have also been added into TiO2 to improve the mechanical and electrical properties of the varistor material. To further improve the characteristic, nanosized TiO 2 has also been investigated to observe its performance. Some merits in the used of nanosized particles in this project 64 such as increasing its comparative density, decrease grain size of sintered bodies, hence will increase the mechanical properties of samples. The samples are prepared through a long process of powder preparation, mixing, drying, compacting, sintering and polishing. The prepared discs are analyzed by evaluating the physical, mechanical, microstructure and electrical properties. The physical properties have been evaluated by measuring the green and fired density and axial and radial shrinkage. The mechanical properties have been measured using Vickers Hardness, modulus of rupture and compression test. The microstructural analysis has been conducted using SEM to evaluate grain size and its distribution and porosity. For phase analysis, XRD has been conducted to determine the phases in a sample. For electrical properties, non linear coefficient, breakdown voltage, clamping ratio, power loss, CV, dielectric constant and leakage current will be evaluated. The analysis will be completed by identifying the types of dopants to be used and optimizing the amount. The types and level of binder needed for processing of varistor powder will also be optimized so that the materials developed can be used in integrated circuits for low voltage application. The optimal properties will ultimately lead to the development of a high performance TiO2 base varistor material.

The international arena is reshaping utility company to play a more important role Renewable Energy (RE) as a key strategic direction of constructing smart grid, thus to deal with global warming and energy depletion. Despite positive attributes of RE resources, the potential has not been sufficiently utilized due to a number of reasons. Firstly, there is uncertainty in respect of the technological development to convert the RE resources into usable forms. Also uncertainty of getting ample sunlight or wind for the RE power plants exist due to climate change. Secondly, there is a lack of reliable information on the potential supply of RE at the national level. For instance, the availability of solar plant is not easy to be computed for the proper weather forecasting in terms of sunlight, seasonal change, etc. Thirdly, there is no communication and management between grid power and RE power. Fourthly, there seems to be little public demand for energy from renewable resources because of feeble public awareness on the positive attributes of RE. Furthermore, the estimation of relative return cost of setting up RE may not be possible to calculate optimally due to lack of relative electricity production information from RE which discourage the public in utilizing RE. The major contribution of this research is to develop a new and systematic methodology for long and short term production of electricity from the PV power plant through forecasting. Also the peak electricity demand and forecast electricity production from PV plant are included for decision making of optimal scheduling. The key features of the research include providing information for PV power plant of reduced carbon emission, return of power plant establishment cost, multistage and multi object cost optimization through forecasted report. Furthermore, a simulation test bench for communication sensor network among power plants and secured database system plan for real time managing data is appended in this research.

Biodiesel is a promising substitute that can reduce our dependence on fossil fuel. Biodiesel is a clean burning liquid fuel produced from renewable resources, enabling a sustainable energy for the future. The application of biodiesel in gas turbines and microturbines is a new approach in the power generation industry. There are limited data at present on the potential of biodiesel in non-transportation sectors, where substantial energy and environment benefits exist. Biodiesel is renewable and has two major advantages which is the increase in performance and help to decrease harmful emissions caused by power generation sector. The objective of this research is to study the feasibility of biodiesel in gas turbine through the investigation of the atomization characteristics. In order to conduct this study, five various blends of distillate and biodiesel will be tested to investigate the spray atomization characteristics that will give an impact to the performance and the emission. Thus, Diesel, B20, B50, B80 and B100 will be tested to study 66 the spray characteristics which are spray angle, spray pattern, spray tip penetration, spray width and Sauter Mean Diameter (SMD). The test will be conducted at various injection pressures starting from 1 bar until 5 bar and a digital imaging camera will be used to capture the spray. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software is used to validate the experimental results. Spray characteristics can also be obtained from the CFD simulation and comparison are made between experimental and simulation results. The higher content of biodiesel gives higher density, viscosity and surface tension of the fuel as can be determined from the chemical fuel properties testing results. Thus, this result in a larger droplet size/SMD and longer spray length but smaller spray angle and spray width for biodiesel. Meanwhile, higher injection pressure during atomization testing process tend to break up fuel particles into smaller partition, which will subsequently produce larger spray angle and spray width but shorter spray length with denser spray pattern.

The results of this development have led to alloy chemistry and processing methods with the goal of utilizing all the strengthening mechanisms known today. The phase transformation has observed in cobalt when subjected to mechanical alloying (MA). However, there is little information on the influence of allotropic phase transformation on the mechanical properties has been found for cobalt-based nanocomposite. Several observations have found that the stability and amount of the mixture of fcc and hcp crystal structure play an important role in controlling the mechanical properties of pure cobalt and commercial cobalt based alloy. This has not been systematically investigated and a clear understanding of microstructure-property relationship has yet to be established, particularly on how mechanical behaviour is influenced by allotropic phase composition. As such, the primary objective of this research is to investigate the allotropic phase transformation mechanism in mechanical milled alumina-cobalt nanocomposite. 67 2013 UNITEN RESEARCH PROFILE Project Leader: Dr. Woon Hai Song Funding: e-Science (RM 149,200.00) Contact address: [email protected] The Recycling of Local Steel Mill By-product (Mill Scale) into High Industry Grade Permanent Magnets During the manufacture of billets and sheets of steel, flakes of impure iron oxide waste are washed away from the surfaces of the steel by cooling water. The flakes are known as mill scale (iron oxide waste). Apart from its limited uses as manhole pigments and soft-ground fillers, the mill scale has not been much utilized for anything else. It is estimated that the Malaysia steel mills, taken together, have in excess of 7,000,000 metric tons of mill scale piled up in their factory yards with about 850,000 tons being added to that amount every year. In this project, we attempt to convert the mill scale, which is rich in defective wustite (FeO) and magnetite (Fe3O4), to the technologically and commercially important hematite (Fe2O3). Although pure hematite by itself is a commercial product, its use in the manufacture of technological products is where its value-added advantage is more significant. Hence, the wastederived hematite is used as raw material to make permanent magnets (hard ferrites). A low-cost mill scale-to-hematite conversion process has been Figure 1 68 developed on a laboratory scale in UNITEN. New purifying method is also needed to be designed in order to obtain high quality hematite. Isotropic hard ferrite or commonly known as permanent magnet was fabricated using wastederived hematite as raw material. The magnetic properties of the product such as maximum-energyproduct (BH)max, remanence and coercivity are 0.99 MGOe, 1941 Gauss and 5321 Oe respectively. The values show that the waste-derived permanent magnet is as good as an industrial grade permanent magnet. The waste-derived permanent magnet may find its applications as component of a DC motor, loud-speaker, toy, holding material and etc. The hysteresis-graph of the waste-derived permanent magnet is shown below: Figure 2 RESEARCH DIRECTORY: COLLEGE of ENGINEERING 2013 Project Leader: Dr. Yap Boon Kar Funding: ERGS (RM50,000.00) Contact address: [email protected] Flux Cleaning Process for Flip-Chip Chip-Scale-Package (FC CSP) This work performs the evaluation and characterizations of the cleaning the organic residues on Flip Chip Ceramic Ball Grid Array (FCCBGA) package. Flux used for Control Collapse Chip Connection (C4) die attachment during assemblies could remain on the die surface as organic residues, thus affecting the integrated circuit performance. Therefore, the effect of implementation flux-cleaning process on the die cleanliness was evaluated. Design of Experiments (DOE) for cleaning chemical parameters using waterbased solvents was carried out to investigate the fluxcleaning efficiency. The response for the experiments conducted was die surface cleanliness. The presence and levels of contaminations would be analyzed and characterized using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and Ion chromatography (IC). The optimization process required the integration between mechanical and chemical parameters. Chemical cleaning parameters optimization was aided with Micro Phase Cleaning (MPC) as solvent. Wash temperature and solvent concentration were varied to find the optimal cleaning. Whilst for mechanical parameters, washing pressure, and nozzle orientation are the expected parameters that would give impact to the cleaning process. From the experiments, the cleaning process is optimized with 3% of MPC solvent added into the pure DI water with longer wash exposure time 0.3 m/min at 10 Psi with 75˚C. The optimization result is proven with thermal cycle testing where no delamination or voids are detected even after 2500x.

Such imposed restriction manifests a benevolent social structure in multi-agent systems. However, in an open cyber world in which agents roam in cyberspace to achieve some intended goal, a visitor agent, which is not normally constrained by some normative protocol could be driven by malicious intentions to undermine the integrity of the host system by posing hostile requests for local services and resources. While such requests could be totally ignored or granted due to some prevailing (non-normative) trust mechanism, a more proactive approach would provide an alternative solution to this problem. To develop such solution, we propose a novel architecture for software agents that detect and assimilate their behaviours to comply with the local normative protocol, failing which, the visitor agent is refused services and resources. In this architecture, a software agent is equipped with an algorithm, which detects and analyzes the normative interactions between local agents. If and when the detection is successful, an assimilation request algorithm is launched to ensure the visitor agent is contrained to the local normative protocol, indicating its acceptance to the group of local agents. The objectives of this research are to develop a novel theory of norms detection and assimilation and to subsequently formulate algorithms for an agent to detect the normative protocol in a group of agents and assimilate the norms to its repertoire of functions. The research methodology is as follows: Identify and select a suitable domain for this research; review the literature in multi-agent systems and normative frameworks; identify and formalize suitable primitives for norms detection and assimilation; and develop algorithms using the primitives. The main outcome 72 of this research is a logical theory of norms detection and assimilation and a set of algorithms that detects norm interactions in a group of agents and assimilates the norms as part of its functions. Figure 1 In this research, we introduce the concept of norms model matching in which a visitor agent attempts to detect the norms (1) (see Figure 1) of a group of host agents by analyzing the agents’ interaction pattern and matching that pattern with those that are available in its norms model base (2). The model base consists of a repository of norms models of all normative frameworks. If there is a match, the visitor agent launches an assimilation request algorithm (3). If the request is granted (4), the visitor agent is allowed to assimilate with the local agents’ norms (5). If there is no match, the agent continuously attempt to resolve the model of the host’s norms. If and when the matching is successful, the agent then request for assimilation. Otherwise, either the visitor agent is unable to access the host’s services and resources or normal non-normative access is assumed. In the latter case, the host system is not considered to have a normative protocol installed. The communication protocol used by the visitor agent to communicate with the facilitator agent is assumed to be the FIPA agent communication language (ACL), which is a standard protocol.

To solve this problem effectively, it is essential for CE method to automatically optimize the quality of contrast enhanced images (CEI). The optimization requires an Image Quality Metric (IQM) which can accurately predict human judgment of the quality of CEI. The reserach has successfully designed a new IQM which outperforms the existing prominent IQMs. Figure 1 However, for commercialization, the new IQM requires optimization in terms of speed in real-time video contrast enhancement. This research proposes to detect noise by measuring the difference with efficient computation. Evaluation results show the new IQM is not only better in terms of prediction accuracy, but also it is 10 times faster than the current IQM.

The requirements specifications phase of the software development life cycle (SDLC) is the main focus of this research study because if errors are found during this phase, then the cost of correcting the errors is going to be less. The Software Quality Assurance audit technique is used to determine whether or not the required standards within the requirements specifications phase are being followed closely. The main objective of performing a quality analysis of the SRS is to ensure that the software requirements among others are complete, consistent, correct, modifiable, ranked, traceable, unambiguous, and understandable. In this research, a new hybrid approach that combines case-based reasoning (CBR) and neural network techniques is applied. The hybrid approach is used in improving the process of analyzing the quality of a given SRS document for a specific project. The CBR technique is used to evaluate the requirements quality by referring to previously stored software requirements quality analysis cases (past experiences). CBR is an artificial intelligence technique that reasons by remembering previously experienced cases, and this technique will speed up the quality analysis process. The main steps within a CBR cycle are retrieve, reuse, revise, and retain. Neural Network (Artificial Neural Network or ANN) is the type of information processing paradigm that is inspired by the way biological nervous systems (brain) process information. It is composed of a large group of interconnected processing elements that works towards solving a given set of problems. Neural network technique works well with CBR because it also uses examples to solve problems. The new hybrid approach proposed in this research aims at enhancing and improving the approach to analyzing SRS quality. An algorithm that implements the hybrid approach is the main outcome of this research.

While artificial intelligence explores the mystery of such intelligence, the study of human behavior and social interactions pose significant challenges in analyzing emerging collective intelligence (CI) within a community of workers. A number of research works investigates the characteristics of collaboration to improve the process or to design the required tools for collaboration. However, very few are found to investigate potential intelligence that emerges out of the collaboration and whether such intelligence could be exploited in improving future collaborative work. The research attempts to: (i) Investigate the concept and theory of collective intelligence, (ii) Analyze the outcome of interactions between collaborating entities that lead to the emergence of collective intelligence, (iii) Formulate a model of emergence of collective intelligence for enhanced multi-agent performance.

Protection is done by encrypting confidential information into unrecognizable message. Encryption algorithm consists of non-linear Boolean functions and technically, there are four important security properties in constructing ‘good’ Boolean functions namely, balance, high nonlinearity, high algebraic degree and correlation immunity. At the moment there are two ways of constructing ‘good’ Boolean functions for a cryptosystem, namely random generation and direct construction. Both of these methods construct the functions from scratch but they have drawbacks. They can produce Boolean functions that are optimum with regard to the designed property but they may be weak for other cryptographic criteria. The result from the literature shows that it is difficult to find Boolean functions achieving all security properties by constructing them from scratch but this is the only available method at the moment. We work the other way round. We take another approach in constructing ‘good’ Boolean cryptographic functions by considering weak Boolean functions (already constructed Boolean functions) 76 rather than constructing them from scratch. For this purpose, we consider Cellular Automata (CA) rules that can be represented in Boolean forms. To date, there is no research work found to construct ‘good’ cryptographic Boolean functions from the ‘weak’ ones. Based on our FRGS Phase 2 2010/11 project, we found out that CA rules are very interesting where we managed to extract 11 out of 256 rules exhibiting cryptographically strong properties. For the purpose of re-constructing the CA rules that we have identified in our FRGS project, we have identified a few biologically-inspired systems that are going to be explored and modeled namely immune system and neural network. Both of these systems have successfully been implemented in biomedical area. Their metaphors will be modeled into binary truth table before the ‘weak’ functions being mapped on. The metaphors in the systems perform balancing and random properties in a natural way. This behavior is expected to give a great impact in constructing ‘good’ Boolean functions satisfying all the security properties.

Each complete sentence in Malay must have their respective compound nouns. The compound nouns can be extracted from a subject and predicate of the sentences. The subject must consist of noun phrase, while the predicate may have one of the verb phrases, adjective phrases or preposition phrases. In a compound noun structure, we may know the head and modifier of the sentences. The compound noun has been discussed in detail by the experts of our native language. Many issues were highlighted to further strengthen of the concept compound noun. Based on the issues discussed, we attempt to do research and development to derive the concepts using suitable techniques with the help of a computer to do the processing. The compound nouns extracted are important to be used in detecting head modifier in Malay sentences. The detection of head modifier is determined by choosing a suitable thematic relation defined in our studies. System flow of the process Process flow diagrams should include the information regarding the connection between various components or modules. As illustrated in Figure 1, the process starts with entering a Malay input sentence. The process starts with breaking a stream of text up into words. This process is to filter any unrecognised symbols or punctuations exist in the input sentence. All tokenised words will be assigned with their respective Malay Partof-Speech (POS) inferring from Malay POS database. This is done using a word tagger module. The output generated from this tagging process is shown in the following example: Input sentence: Orang itu seorang ulama besar Output sentence: Orang[KN] itu[KN]seorang[KN] ulama[KN] besar[KA] The tagged word produced will goes to compound noun extractor. In this process, a sentence is divided into two parts: subject and predicate. The compound noun in subject and predicate are determine with rules defined in our studies. The example of compound noun extracted is as follows: CN i=0 : (orang[KN], itu[KN]) CN i=1 : (ulama[KN], besar[KA]) The position of head and modifier in compound noun are determine using Thematic Relation created from our studies.

MANET’s unique features such as scalability, fault tolerant and autonomous system allowed the network to be setup with or without any trusted authority. These features make it suitable for many applications in military and also commercial such as in emergency and rescue operations. During emergency situations, the needs of sharing the information among the rescuers are enormously vital. However, since this network is operated based on wireless environment, it is vulnerable to threats and intruders. Information flow in MANET can be intercepted and tampered and this raised a security issues such as confidentiality, integrity, non-repudiation and also privacy. Privacy issues are the main concern since personal data cannot be shared by all rescuers. Privacy is a state or condition of limited access to a person personal data and it relates to an individual’s right to determine how, when and to what extent the information about the person can be released to another person or organization. The objective of this research is to formulate a privacy access control model that will ensure access to information in emergency environment constructed using MANET is secure and preserved one person’s secrecy. 79 2013 2013 UNITEN RESEARCH PROFILE Project Leader: Dr. Mohammed Azlan Bin Mohamed Iqbal Funding: MOSTI eScienceFund (RM 126,550.00) Contact address: [email protected] A Computational Model of Human Creativity in a High Complexity Domain Since beauty is one of the main criteria when it comes to the quality of chess compositions (i.e. problems or puzzles that have unique and creative solutions - considered works of art in the game).

Such an approach could help promote the goal of sustainable development and address environmental issues through procurement and facilitating the use of environmentally friendly products and services. This study aims to explore the perception of the Malaysian Public Enterprises towards the benefit of implementing green government procurement. It is also aimed to examine the level of green government procurement practice and investigate the barriers in practicing the strategy. Finally, the study intends to identify the new factors which are perceived to be effective government’s role in advancing green government procurement not only to the public sector but also private sector and civil society. This study addresses the issues based on the samples from Malaysian public enterprises at Federal level which are classified into statutory and non-statutory bodies. Data will be obtained using self develop questionnaire survey and interview. The findings of the study are expected to create awareness about green government procurement and providing information on the practices among Malaysian Public Enterprises.

The viscoelastic materials are modeled as standard linear solids which involve three (3) material parameters and the motion is treated as one-dimensional. In these studies, a viscoelastic slug is placed between two semi-infinite elastic rods and a wave initiated in the first rod is transmitted through the slug into the second rod. The objective is to relate the transmitted signal to the material parameters of the slug. We solve the governing system of partial differential equations using Laplace transform. We invert the Laplace transformed solution numerically to obtain the transmitted signal for several viscosity Figure 1 time constants and ratios of acoustic impedances. In inverting the Laplace transformed equations, we used the complex inversion formula because there is a branch cut and infinitely many poles within the Bromwich contour. Finally, we discussed the relationship between the viscosity time constants, ratios of acoustic impedances and the results of the interface velocity discontinuities. Figure 1 shows the 3-parameter model whereas Figure2 depicts the flow of the viscoelastic wave in the viscoelastic material. Figure 4 shows the Bromwich contour used in the complex inversion integrals of Laplace Transform.

Forty subjects were undergraduate Engineering students from Universiti Tenaga Nasional. Subjects were between the ages of 19 and 30 years who had a diagnosis of total stress score above the mean, were not enrolled in any exercise programs over the period of one year (sedentary), overweight (Body Mass Index above 25) and had a cardiovascular endurance score below the mean. Subjects were randomly assigned to either a 12-week low intensity dance therapy intervention (“SenamSeri”) or a conventional aerobics dance exercise as the control group. A pretest-posttest control research design was utilized. Both groups met for 50 minutes per session, three times a week (36 sessions). The Transactional Approach Multidimensional (Derogatis Stress Profile) 88 examined the emotional response sub-scale of total stress score. Statistical analysis included (group x time) repeated measures ANOVA to determine between and within group mean differences. The hypotheses of the study showed significant value. There were statistically significant differences between*group effect (between treatment and control groups) on the combined dependent variables: F (4, 35) = 20.79, p < .01, eta square = .790. An inspection of the mean scores indicated that treatment group reported an improvement for TSS (M = 39.0, SD = 1.15), Hostility sub-scale (M = 47.70, SD = 3.34), Anxiety sub-scale (M = 35.65, SD = 3.64) and for depression sub-scale (M = 35.65, SD = 2.58). It is concluded that low intensity dance therapy exercise intervention of “SenamSeri” has contributed greatly to the positive findings concerning the emotional responses of total stress score among sedentary adults in higher education.
