MEMAHAMI ANTARA SESAMA KITA

THE CAPTAIN’S WAKEY-WAKEY CALL

UniKL MIMET merupakan sebuah komuniti melibatkan individu terdiri daripada 1400 mahasiswa/i dan kira-kira 200 kakitangan dan pekerja-pekerja lain. Dalam kumpulan 1600 orang ini terdapat empat generasi yang berinteraktif.

Kita ada Generasi Y (lebih terkenal dengan Gen Y) iaitu semua pelajar-pelajar kita. Kita ada Gen X iaitu

kakitangan yang lahir antara 1960 – 1980 (sekarang berumur 30 – 50 tahun), Gen Baby Boomers (lahir antara tahun 1945 – 1960) iaitu yang lahir selepas Perang Dunia Kedua. Kita juga ada sekumpulan warga emas – berumur 60 tahun ke atas dan tidak ramai – iaitu lahir selepas Perang Dunia Pertama dan sebelum tamat Perang Dunia Kedua – dinamakan Gen Tradisional.

Kali ini saya ingin menyebut tentang kewujudan generasi-generasi ini dan kesannya ke atas interaksi seharian

warga MIMET. Mungkin ada berlaku sedikit ribut kecil sekali sekala lantaran pertembungan sikap dan sifat generasi yang berbeza. Dengan memahami sikap/sifat/ciri-ciri generasi ini diharap kita akan lebih memahami antara sesama kita.

Daripada kajian PWC (Price Waterhouse Coopers) mereka mendapati antara ciri-ciri profil Gen Y ialah; berani, ‘brash’

(sombong,angkuh), sentiasa berbukumuka (facebooking), pencinta iphone dan ‘multitaskers’ (dapat menjalankan berbagai tugas serentak). Antara ciri-ciri lain Gen Y yang disebut-sebut ialah: sentiasa ingin bertukar kerja dan majikan; menganggap organisasi mesti disesuaikan untuk mereka dan bukan sebaliknya (iaitu mereka menyesuaikan diri mengikut kehendak majikan), dan akhir sekali Gen Y sering bersikap mereka berhak mendapat apa yang mereka hendak. Itu yang didapati dalam penyelidikan PWC.

Yang saya sendiri perhatikan pula selepas selama lebih 7 tahun memerhati Gen Y sebagai pelajar IPT dan juga

melalui perbincangan dengan rakan-rakan pensyarah di beberapa IPT lain, didapati selain dari ciri-ciri di atas ada beberapa ciri-ciri tambahan yang perlu disebutkan.

Saya dapati kebanyakan Gen Y tidak menunjukkan sikap berdisiplin seperti menepati masa dan tidak membuat

kerja dalam masa yang ditetapkan. Mereka mengambil mudah peraturan-peraturan , kurang berhujah dengan baik,

dan gemar berseronok melampaui batas.

Kebanyakan masyarakat Gen Y telah biasa dengan “instant culture mentality”, iaitu menjangka atau mengharap semua

perkara termasuk hasilnya tercapai dengan sekelip mata dan serta merta. Jika anda tak suka kepada sesuatu, mengikut budaya internet, anda boleh ‘delete’ – hapuskan!! Tekan saja, dapat! Inilah yang dikatakan ‘instant culture’, termasuklah juga “fast food”, mee maggi dan lain-lain.

Kebanyakan warga kerja MIMET , terutamanya pensyarah, adalah dari Gen X dan Baby Boomers yang dibesarkan

dan berpengalaman dalam budaya berbeza. Kebanyakannya bekas staf TLDM dan petugas di sektor swasta dalam bidang perkapalan perdagangan. Dalam kedua-dua bidang pekerjaan ini disiplin dan konsep kerja berpasukan diutamakan. Itulah juga konsep yang cuba diterapkan oleh kakitangan akademik kepada mahasiswa/i di MIMET.

Ingin saya ingatkan juga kepada semua keluarga besar MIMET terutamanya para pelajar sekalian, bahawa selain kita

mengutamakan pencapaian cemerlang akademik, kita juga perlukan nilai-nilai kemanusiaan dan emosi. Antara nilai-nilai ini ialah kasih sayang, belas kasihan, ehsan, simpati (empathy), kekuatan mental, berakhlak mulia, bertoleransi, menghormati ibu bapa dan orang yang lebih berumur dan berbagai-bagai tanggungjawab sosial lagi.

Perkara-perkara ini bagi Gen Y mungkin tidak terfikir lagi tetapi apabila sudah mula bekerja, berumah tangga dan

bertanggungjawab (bukan hanya sebagai pelajar sahaja), maka semua ini perlu diambil kira dalam lingkungan hidup kita seharian.

Saya menyeru supaya kita dapat lebih memahami di antara keperluan di antara sesama kita. Namun begitu,

diharap tidak ada insan-insan yang mengambil mudah dan mempergunakan kesefahaman ini untuk kepentingan diri sendiri pula.

SELAMAT FAHAM MEMAHAMI

HBasic Concept of Refrigeration cycleIntroduction

Air –conditioning and refrigerator

are two familiar devices which are

commonly used in our everyday lives.

When we feel hot or when our body

is sweating due to our daily activities,

we will switch on the air-conditioning

just to feel the fresh cold air and to

remove the heat build-up around our

body so that we will feel comfortable.

During a hot sunny day, a glass of cold

water chilled in the refrigerator will

definitely put out our feeling of thirst.

However, not many of us know how

these devices operate.

Refrigeration cycle process

These devices operate on a cycle

known as vapour-compression

refrigeration cycle. This cycle allows

the transfer of heat from a

low-temperature region to

a high-temperature region.

The cycle comprises of

compressor, condenser,

expansion valve and

evaporator.

Other than refrigerator and

air-conditioning, heat pump

also operates on similar cycle.

However, this cycle allows

the transfer of heat from a

low-temperature medium to

a high-temperature medium.

As for a country with hot

climate throughout the

year, not many heat pumps can be

found in Malaysia. Even though both

refrigerators and heat pumps operate

on the same cycle, the objectives of

the devices are different.

Similar to other cycles, vapour-

compression refrigeration cycle

requires the usage of working

fluids known as refrigerants to

enhance efficiency or the reversible

phase change from gas to liquid.

Since almost every house is equipped

with a refrigerator, Freon is the most

popular type of refrigerant.

Freon is the commercial name for R-12

which is a refrigerant developed from

chlorofluorocarbon or CFC family.

Unfortunately, CFC was found to

allow more ultraviolet radiation into

the earth atmosphere by destroying

the protective o-zone layer and

contributed to the greenhouse effect

that causes global warming. Thus, the

usage of R-12 is now largely replaced

by R-134a, a chlorine-free type of

refrigerant.

The cycle starts with the refrigerant

entering the compressor as saturated

vapour where the refrigerant

is compressed isentropically to

condenser pressure. The refrigerant

temperature increases during the

isentropic compression process

to a temperature well above the

temperature of the surrounding

medium and enters the condenser

as superheated vapour and leaves as

saturated liquid due to heat rejection

to the surrounding (occurs at the

coils behind the refrigerator). The

saturated liquid is then

throttled to evaporator pressure

which causes the refrigerant

temperature to drop below the

temperature of refrigerated

space (known as freezer

compartment). The refrigerant

then enters the evaporator as a

low-quality saturated mixture

which then evaporates by heat

absorbed from refrigerated

space. The refrigerant exits

the evaporator as a saturated

vapour (the same phase as in

the beginning of the cycle) and

re-enters the compressor to

complete the cycle.

Conclusion

Vapour-compression refrigeration cycle is one of the many Thermodynamics cycle. By knowing the cycle, one will learn to

appreciate the concept of heat transfer that cannot be observed with bare eyes.

NOUTCOME BASED EDUCATION (OBE) WORKING WORKSHOP

As required by MQA, all academicians must be equipped with the knowledge and content on the Outcome Based Education (OBE). Therefore, on August

19th & 20th 2011, MIMET’s Centre of Teaching & Learning (CTL) representative had conducted an Overview and Working Workshop on Outcome Based Education (OBE) at UniKL MIMET.

In order to make sure all MIMET academicians attend the OBE sessions by 2011, it was scheduled in three different sessions. The first session was conducted at MIMET, the second session was in Ipoh and the last session was planned at MIMET.

For the first session at MIMET, it was divided into two slots; an overview and working workshop. The overview session was attended by 45 academicians from

all departments. Whereas the working workshop was conducted for 32 academicians including all Head of Sections (HoS) , Programme Coordinators (PC) and other academicians. The facilitator was the CTL Director, Dr Asmah Zakaria from UniKL City Campus.

Upon completion of the OBE Working Workshop, all participants should be able to:1. Recognize the importance

of OBE in Malaysian Higher Education System

2. Develop, teach and assess programmes according to OBE/ MQA/ MOHE Requirements.

The contents of the OBE Working Workshop are as follows:

1. The Overview of the Outcome Based Education (OBE): What is OBE? Why OBE? Where is OBE? How do we do OBE? Who are involved in OBE? When is OBE applicable?

2. Definitions of common terms: Programme Education Objectives (PEO), Programme Learning Outcome (PLO), Course Learning Outcome (CLO), Performance Indicators/ Performance Criteria, Assessment and Evaluation.

3. Link and mapping between CLOs, PLOs, PEOs

4. Entrepreneurship elements embedded into Diploma and Bachelor programmes

5. Continual Quality Improvement (CQI): closing the inner loop

During the working workshop, all participants were given the opportunity to discuss and improvise the current modules descriptors. The OBE Working Workshop had somehow educated the academic staff to have better review on their own syllabus which is in line with the University vision and mission.

HEFFECTIVE SHIPBOARD MAINTENANCE

INTRODUCTION

Maintenance is an important aspect that keeps any equipment or machinery functional. Whether it is a small machine or a large structure, efficient maintenance may help prolong its life. On a ship, effective maintenance, thus, keeps machineries in a smooth running condition. In a ship’s engine room, where a lot of machineries are located, engineers and crew carry out the maintenance to ensure safe and efficient operation of the machineries. Each machine on board a ship requires specific maintenance which has to be carried out at regular intervals of time.

CURRENT SITUATION

In the earlier days, a ship may carry more than five engineers with large supporting crew members. Hence, maintenance was quite easily carried out then. However, in the present scenario of modern ships, the number of crew members and engineers on a ship has reduced drastically due to the emphasis on greater automation of machineries and labor cost constraints.Many ships now carry only three to four engineers on board, while the time allocated to carry out maintenance has shrunk due to greater emphasis on meeting voyage deadlines. Nevertheless, effective maintenance must require adequate manpower and time which now may not be easily available as the number of crew members has dwindled while machineries has increased both in numbers as well as complexity.It is therefore important to effectively plan the maintenance of machineries

on board a ship in advance so that they can be fully functional whenever required for operation. The planning for maintenance usually rests with the second engineer for a commercial ship, while for a military ship would be the responsibility of the marine engineering officer onboard.

Efficient planning, adequate usage of tools and supported by relevant maintenance documentations are the keys to effective maintenance. We shall look at the main types of maintenance procedures as practiced on board either a commercial or military ship.

TyPES OF MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES

• Preventive Maintenance System

It is often referred to as the Planned Maintenance System or PMS. In this type of system the maintenance is carried out as per the running hours of the machinery such as 4000 hrs, 8000 hrs etc., or by the calendar intervals, for instance 6 monthly, yearly etc. The maintenance is carried out irrespective of the condition of the machinery. The parts have to be replaced if it is specified in the schedule, even if they can be still used.

• Corrective or Breakdown Maintenance

In this system the maintenance is carried out when the machinery breaks down. This is the reason why it is known as the breakdown maintenance. This is not a suitable and not a good method as the breakdown may occur when the machinery is required in for an emergency. The only advantage of this system is that the working of machinery parts is used to its full life

or until it breaks. This type of maintenance might get costly as during breakdown several other parts may also get damaged.

• Predictive Maintenance system

In this system the machinery parts are checked regularly for wear or tear caused by radial or axial motions, especially in bearing parts. With the help of sensors or transducers the condition of the machinery parts is monitored regularly, a trending analysis over a period of time is then carried out and the required intervention or maintenance is done accordingly even before the machinery breaks down. This system involves condition monitoring and requires experience and knowledge as wrong interpretation of the trending analysis may result in unnecessary and costly replacement of parts which may not be acceptable by the company.

CONCLUSION

Effective maintenance is of paramount importance to shipboard crew. Without proper maintenance planning a ship may encounter unexpected downtimes that affect a company’s bottom-line or profits. Thus, to operate a ship would require serious attention on maintenance planning to avoid adverse financial implications to a ship owner.

Nurul Ida Suhana bt Lias was born on 25th February 1987 in Batu Maung, Penang. She was raised by her army father and a housewife mother with three other siblings. Her fascination on mechanical things blossomed when her father bought her first toy, a set of train model and a few books on how things work.

With these, she was intrigued and excited to see how other things work and started to explore with her household appliances. Up until now, reading was part of her life and she still continues collecting model kits as her interest. She started her diploma studies at UniKL MIMET in 2004, and graduated three years later with a Diploma of Engineering Technology in Ship Design with a CGPA of 3.63. Then, she completed her studies in UniKL MIMET with a Bachelor of Engineering Technology in

Naval Architecture and Shipbuilding in 2010 and graduated with CGPA of 3.73. She was awarded with the President’s Award during UniKL 8th Convocation Ceremony and also received the IMarEST Academic Excellence Award from the Institute of Marine Engineering, Science and Technology (IMarEST)During her bachelor studies, she did her internship at Anshah Marine Services, Klang where she landed a position as an Assistant Project

Engineer and took care of the project planning and management. Before that, in her diploma studies, she did her industrial training at Kay Marine Sdn. Bhd under the test, trial and training team where she was involved in sea trial, HAT and SAT.

For her final year project, she did some research on ‘The Effects of Welding Pattern Towards Different Welded Joints’ which focused solely on the welded joints and parts on ship where she received assistance from STRIDE and SIRIM-AMREC. Currently, she works at B.Braun Medical Industries Sdn. Bhd. as a Process Engineer for Medical Plant Department. Even though this job deviates from her

field of study, she took this as a challenge to keep her moving forward and be competitive. She harbours a hope that one day she can contribute towards society by sharing her skills and knowledge.

Orang Yang Berpuasaakan mengalami perubahan bau mulut akibat perut yang kosong daripada dimasuki makanan.

Rasulullah S.A.W bersabda yang bermaksud: “Bau mulut orang yang berpuasa lebih harum di sisi Allah berbanding bau kasturi.” (Riwayat Ahmad)

Orang Yang Berjihadwalaupun cedera dan mungkin keadaannya mengerikan serta berlumuran darah, akan dibangkitkan dalam keadaan demikian sebagai saksi jihadnya. Malah darah itu baunya sewangi kasturi.

Rasulullah S.A.W bersabda yang bermaksud: “Demi yang jiwaku berada di tanganNya, tidaklah seseorang terluka di jalan Allah, dan Allah mengetahui siapa orang yang terluka di jalanNya, kecuali dia akan datang pada hari kiamat dengan lukanya yang mengalir darah. Warnanya warna darah, dan baunya bau kasturi” (Riwayat al-Bukahri)

Orang Yang Berwuquf di padang arafahdatang dalam keadaan berdebu dan kusut masai. tetapi Allah berbangga bangga di hadapan malaikat tentang kehadiran kemaah haji ke Padang Arafah.

Rasulullah S.A.W bersabda yang bermaksud: “Allah SWT berfirman: “ Lihatlah hamba-hambaKu mereka datang kepadaKu dalam keadaan rambut kusut dan berdebu.” (Riwayat Ahmad dan Ibn Hibban)m

IMTHE LOAD LINES

Whilst it is not easy for the Road Transport Department (RTD or JPJ) to determine whether a commercial vehicle is overloaded, it is not so for ships. Unlike RTD officers, maritime law enforcement officers and ship surveyors do not need any weighing station to ensure that ships are not carrying excess cargo. They only need to observe at the load line mark by the ship sides and ensure that it does not submerge below the water surface. What an easy task it is. However what is a load line and how is it determined?

A load line is a mark to determine the maximum draught (draft) to which a ship may be loaded to ensure her safety at sea. The purpose of a load line is to ensure that a ship has sufficient freeboard and thus sufficient reserve buoyancy. The freeboard on commercial vessels is measured between the lowest point of the uppermost continuous deck at the side and the waterline. All commercial ships, other than in exceptional circumstances, have a load line symbol painted amidships on each side of the ship. This symbol must also be permanently marked, so that if the paint wears off it remains visible. The load line makes it easy for anyone to determine if a ship has been overloaded. The exact location of the Load Line is calculated and verified by a Classification Society and that society will issue a Load Line Certificate on behalf of the flag state. This symbol, also called an international load line or Plimsoll line, indicates

the maximum safe draught, and therefore the minimum freeboard for the vessel in various operating conditions.

Figure 1 Freeboard and reserve buoyancy

The original “Plimsoll Mark” was a circle with a horizontal line through it to show the maximum draught of a ship. Additional marks have been added over the years, allowing for different water densities and expected sea conditions.

Letters may also appear to the sides of the mark indicating the classification society that has surveyed the vessel’s load line. The initials used include AB for the American Bureau of Shipping, LR for Lloyd’s Register, GL for Germanischer Lloyd, BV for Bureau Veritas, NV for Det Norske Veritas and CM for Ships Classification Malaysia. These letters should be approximately 115 millimetres in height and 75 millimetres in width.

Figure 2 Load Line Marks

The letters on the Load line marks have the following meanings:• TF – Tropical Fresh Water • F – Fresh Water • T – Tropical Seawater

• S – Summer Temperate Seawater

• W – Winter Temperate Seawater

• WNA – Winter North AtlanticTHE LOAD LINE THEORY

Fresh water is considered to have a density of 1000 kg/m³ and sea water 1025 kg/m³. Fresh water marks make allowance for the fact that the ship will float deeper in fresh water than salt water. A ship loaded to her Fresh Water mark in fresh water will float at her Summer Mark once she has passed into sea water. Similarly if loaded to her Tropical Fresh water mark she will float at her Tropical Mark once she passes into sea water. The Summer load line is the primary load line and it is from this mark that all other marks are derived. The position of the summer load line is calculated from the Load Line Rules and depends on many factors such as length of ship, type of ship, type and number of superstructures, amount of sheer, bow height and so on. For instance, the Winter load line is one forty-eighth of the summer load draught below the summer load line while the Tropical load line is one forty-eighth of the summer load draft above the summer load line. The horizontal line through the circle of the Plimsoll mark is at the same level as the summer load line.

In spite of the above theory, the estimated length of the freeboard based on the type and length of a ship can always be referred from Table A and Table B of Regulation 28 to the International Convention on the Load Line (ICLL). In retrospect, it is not only easy to determine whether a ship is overloaded, but it is also easy to roughly estimate where a ship’s load line should be using the guidance given in the ICLL.

Kesilapan seseorang itu gagal menumpukan hal-hal utama dalam kerja, dalam perhubungan

dengan keluarga, dalam urusan muamalat dan lain-lain majoritinya adalah Yang Maha Esa. Memilih untuk bersangka buruk dan memandang rendah rakan sekerja, memperlecehkan perkara berkaitan rumahtangga, menghalalkan urusan yang haram dan riba dalam transaksi demi mencari jalan pintas untuk hidup senang.

Apatah lagi urusan dengan Allah s.w.t; melambat-lambatkan solat-solat fardhu, memilih untuk menyempurnakan zakat bukan kerana kewajipan tetapi sekadar melepas diri dari membayar “income tax”. Semua senarai tersebut mempunyai hubungkait dengan fokus sebenar seseorang untuk memandang matlamat jangka masa panjang dalam kehidupannya. Apakah matlamat jangka masa panjang seorang yang mengaku sebagai muslim?Firman Allah s.w.t: “Aku tidak menjadikan Jin dan Manusia melainkan untuk beribadah kepadaKu” (Surah Ad-Dhariyat:56)

Dititipkan Allah s.w.t dari dahulu lagi sesuai dengan kejadian manusia yang mempunyai pengakhiran hidup. Adalah khilaf jika seseorang itu menganggap ibadah sebagai perbuatan mengasingkan diri dari manusia sedangkan ibadah dalam konteks yang perlu difahami adalah meluas sekali. Ibadah secara praktisnya boleh didefinisikan sebagai seluruh kehidupan manusia didasari dengan niat kerana Allah taala. Sebagai contoh, pelajar yang sedang belajar, pekerja yang sedang bekerja, atlit sukan yang sedang bersukan, dan juga merangkumi aktiviti lain melibatkan hal-hal muamalat seperti urusniaga antara pembeli dengan penjual. Semuanya akan dianggap sebagai ibadah yang mendatangkan keberkatan Allah dan pahala yang setimpal jika diniatkan kerana Allah dan menjaga hak-hak Allah seperti menjaga adab ketika bergaul, peka dalam soal aurat dan teliti dalam hal-hal yang melibatkan suruhan yang baik dan meninggalkan perkara yang tidak disukaiNYA.

Secara prinsip, wahyu dari Allah amat jelas dan mudah difahami tentang misi atau tujuan sebenar seseorang itu hidup di muka bumi ini. Maka, tidak boleh dinafikan lagi bahawa yang paling utama dalam kehidupan bukan untuk meraih nama, pangkat, harta, pengaruh mahupun pujian tetapi hidup secara total berpaksikan redha dan keberkatan Allah s.w.t.

Walaupun setiap dari kita ada hak untuk menggenggam kejayaan dan punya hak untuk mengecapi kekayaan tetapi itu bukan titik akhir untuk dikatakan insan itu mengutamakan yang utama dalam hidup. Proses untuk memahami yang utama memerlukan seseorang itu berfikir secara berhikmah. Sebagai contoh, memilih untuk cemerlang dalam pelajaran memerlukan seseorang pelajar itu berusaha secara kental dan penuh strategi. Namun, itu belum dikatakan pelajar itu telah berjaya walaupun telah menggenggam Anugerah Dekan jika pelajar tersebut menggunakan jalan kotor seperti membawa “toyol” di dewan peperiksaan atau belajar dengan niat untuk dipuji dan dikagumi orang ramai. Sebaliknya, kejayaan yang sebenar adalah dengan usaha yang sama tetapi berbeza matlamat iaitu dengan cara sentiasa memperbaharui niat kerana Allah, tidak berasa terpaksa dan dipaksa sepanjang melalui proses pembelajaran di kelas malah berasa sabar dan berfikir secara positif. Allah tidak melihat kepada keputusan CGPA seseorang itu kerana DIA lah yang menjadi penentu tetapi Allah melihat kepada sepanjang proses pelajar tersebut melalui mehnah dalam perjuangannya menggapai ilmu.

Secara teknikal, pengaplikasiannya sama kepada mereka yang telah bekerja. KPI atau tingginya sesuatu jawatan dalam sesebuah pentadbiran adalah kayu pengukur untuk yang bernama manusia. Lumrah kerana manusia yang hidupnya penuh dengan keterbatasan tetapi apabila dimasukkan dengan penanda aras dari Yang Maha Mengetahui, ada kenyamanan dan penyatuan di situ. Sebagai pekerja, sebetulnya harus ada satu susun atur yang bijak. Setiap urusan, jangan dirasakan sedetikpun rasa kelecehan dalam tanggung jawab. Manusia harus dipimpin dengan rasa taqwa iaitu tunduk dan patuh kepada Allah s.w.t, bekerja mengikut skop kerja yang harus dipatuhi tanpa rasa jemu, bekerjasama dan saling lengkap melengkapi serta segalanya diniatkan kerana Allah taala.

Seharusnya, jika diteladani nasihat di atas dan ditekuni sempadannya pasti setiap dari kita merasakan betapa cantik dan hebatnya nilaian Allah dalam kehidupan ciptaanNYA. Sudah terbentang dan tersedia semua senarai yang DIA mahukan dan yang tinggal hanyalah kita, sebagai penciptaNYA untuk membuat koreksi diri supaya kembali mematuhi. Betapa jerih dan payahnya umat Nabi Muhammad s.a.w yang terdahulu untuk mempertahankan Islam dan Iman dengan menggunakan kekuatan fizikal atau dengan kata lainnya berjihad di medan perang dari musyrikin dan murtadin. Umat di zaman ini hanya perlu berjihad menentang hawa nafsu sendiri agar Islam dan Iman itu tidak roboh, bukan ditangan orang lain tetapi ditangan kita sendiri.

Firman Allah s.w.t: “Hai jiwa yang tenang, Kembalilah kepada Tuhanmu dengan hati yang puas lagi diredhai-Nya, Maka masuklah ke dalam jama’ah hamba-hamba Ku, Masuklah ke dalam syurga-Ku” (Surah Al Fajr :27-30

Wallahua’alam.
