ABSTRACT

Traditional desert buildings represent living witnesses for the

correspondence of these buildings to the severe ambient

environment especially the harsh desert climate. Ghadames is one

of desert cities in Libya that was well known for its

correspondence to the harsh desert climate.

This paper is going to study the spontaneous and practical

experimentation of the traditional buildings, especially houses, in

Ghadames, through determining the ambient climatic factors and

study the effect of these factors on the buildings design & details

such as: materials, construction systems, walls thickness, type of

roofing, openings. …etc. The paper also will study analysis of

thermal comfort of these buildings and the materials that were

used, such as: sun dried brick, gypsum and mud, depending on the

thermal properties of these materials that accommodated to desert

climate. Thermal properties of building materials should be

considered in buildings and housing projects in the desert and hot

arid regions.

KEY WORDS: Traditional architecture, desert buildings,

Ghadames, building envelope, thermal comfort, thermal.

Unused electronic appliances cause many impacts to the

environment. People prefer to dispose their unused electronic

appliances without any further processing that may lead to pollute

the environment. As the result, pollutants caused by unused

electronic appliances are increasing every year, along with the

increasing of today’s people needs of electronic appliances for their

daily life. This model persuades people to prefer collecting their

unused electronic appliances in purpose to exchange them for new

electronic appliances, in order that these electronic waste can be

better controlled by government to prevent more pollutant caused by

these electronic wastes. This model connects people as consumers

and electronic waste producers, electronic industries as electronic

waste recycler, and government as policy maker and electronic waste

controller. The implementation of this model can be conducted by

non-profit organization supervised by government to inform people

that electronical wastes are harmful for environment and they better

collect and exchange their electronic wastes for new electronic

appliances in certain terms and conditions.

Keywords: unused electronic appliances, non-profit organization,

ABSTRACT

Using natural gas as a heating fuel is one of the various uses of this

invaluable fuel. The real and major importance of natural gas can be

realized regarding the natural gas plentiful added value and its

capabilities for being converted into thousands of valuable economic

commodities in the oil and petrochemicals industry as the primary

material and the energy resource. The growing need for gas to

provide energy and fuel, and the foreign currency resulted from sales

and export for investment and launching primary industries in the

country, reinforced the idea of bundling gas industry related

activities. Therefore, in line with this, and based on the legal statute,

NIGC as one of the four major subsidiaries of Iran's Oil Ministry

was established. The initial capital of the company amounted to $25

million, in 1965.

Since its establishment, NIGC has gradually achieved capabilities

and managed to have access to various sources and facilities such as

experts and efficient human force equipped with scientific and

theoretical vision and knowledge, tools, equipment, machinery and

various advanced workshops for implementing its operations

proportionate with the economic and social development trend of the

country, so that it can independently accomplish all the related tasks

complying with the valid international acceptable standards.

Right now, The NIGC is one of the top ten gas companies in the gas

industry in the Middle East, and one of the four major subsidiaries of

the Oil Ministry. Having over 50years of experience, it is responsible

for providing over 65 percent of the fuel required by the country.

The company, in terms of providing gas, does own an important

position both inside the country and abroad and proportionate with

its needs and expansion of its activities in the country and abroad, it

has taken measures to revise its structure. While maintaining and

reinforcing its potential in hardware and software terms, the NIGC

has recruited experts and trained staff and updated its experienced

staff knowledge.

At the present time, the number of the NIGC permanent staff is more

than 18000 persons

ABSTRACT

Indonesia as a maritime country which is located at 60 N - 110 S

latitude and 950– 1410 E longitude has an ocean area reach out

5,000,000 km2. This biggest archipelago country in the world has

great ocean energy potential. In the other hand, Indonesian

electricity energy demand is always increasing. Data from Central

Bureau of Statistics of Indonesia ( Badan Pusat Statistik) record that

in the year 2013 Indonesian electricity consumption achieved 185.9

GWh and it was 234.9 % of Indonesian electricity consumption in

2000. It is indicated by this condition that Indonesia need another

alternative energy sources to supply the electricity needs. This

ocean energy potential makes Ocean Wave Energy (OWE) is precise

to be developed in Indonesia. In this paper, study of OWE with

Oscillating Water Column (OWC) converter is discussed. Numerical

method is used to analyze the quantitative approach of OWE

potential in Indonesia. For the calculation, it is assumed that

chamber width is 2,5 m and ocean water density is 1030 kg/m3. To

calculate the energy, data of ocean significant height from

ABSTRACT

Cementing is an essential operation during construction of an oil or

gas well. Cement in oil industry is used to hold casing in place and

to prevent fluid migration between subsurface formations and the

borehole. Also, it aids in protecting the casing from corrosion and

from shock loads in deeper drilling.

The quality of cement behind a casing plays a vital role during

drilling and has a serious impact on the secondary cementing,

workover and stimulation operation. However, cement slurry is

prepared by mixing cement and water with some additives such as

Accelerator, AntiFoam agents, Extenders, Retarders and fluid loss

control etc. These additives used to modify the properties of cement

slurries for specific use in oil well-cementing applications. Although

many additives are mixed in the slurry but the problem is still the

slurry contains some pores leading to decrease the strength of the

cement over the years ahead.

The project targets to improve the performance of a cement by

adding a swelling elastomer in the slurry to overcome the effect of

pores in the slurry. As known, elastomer is amorphous polymer

which is used for seals, adhesives and molded flexible parts . Thus, a

cement slurry will be prepared and mixed with a swelling elastomer

and under certain condition of pressure and temperature elastomer

will swell filing and blocking the pores in the slurry. Elastomer will

enhance the strength of the cement leading to better performance

avoiding failures when it operates. The mixture will be left until it

become hard then different oil from different fields will be tested to

show their effect on the slurry.

As far as known, a slurry should be designed for its specific

application, with good properties to allow placement in a normal

period, so different properties of cement slurries will be considered

when adding elastomer. Using elastomer in cement will provide high

quality of cement and will ensure the long-term durability of

borehole. Initial cost will be slightly higher since the addition of the

elastomer in the slurry but it will reduce workover cost and total cost

over many years

ABSTRACT

This paper presents the current role, relevance, trends and

challenges in respect of Just-in-Time (JIT) techniques within the

field of Libyan Oil & Gas, which struggled with many difficulties

due to many problems, creating strongly negative impacts on the

productivity and utilization of many companies around the country.

The current implementation levels of JIT techniques as a planning

and control system within the surveyed industry was investigated. A

survey methodology has been applied using an intensive detailed

questionnaire. Based on the analysis of the survey, the results show

that in most cases the management body within the surveyed

companies has a modest strategy towards most of the areas that are

considered as being crucial in any successful implementation of

these techniques. The results also show a variation within the

implementation levels of the JIT sub-elements, giving the highest

level in the emphasise on implementing preventative maintenance

programmes. The paper has also identified limitations within the

targeted companies, and has pointed to areas where senior managers

should take actions in order to achieve effective implementations of

JIT systems within their companies.

global practices and standards (economic, environmental and social).

At least, minimum design standard requirements within the general

accepted level of environmental friendliness, safety, security, health,

access and ecological considerations are required to be put in place.

As a result of the above, this paper revisits as well as appraises the

exposition of duly accredited international standards, information

and communication technology such as innovative designs systems,

amphibian architecture systems, digital city systems, intelligent

building systems, zero-energy emission systems, 3d printed homes

ABSTRACT

This thesis paper explains the concept of CSR in detail with the help

of different definitions that different authors have given.

Stakeholders’ theory is used to clarify that how individuals or groups

are a key element in the firm’s external environment that can

positively or negatively affect the organization.

Corporate social responsibility is the constant dedication by

organizations to behave ethically and contribute to economic

development while improving the quality of life for community at

large. CSR shows a company’s commitment towards its stakeholders

which includes employees, customers, suppliers, investors,

government agencies etc. By embracing CSR an organization can get

great support from the community, so CSR must be taken seriously

by the companies. A social responsibility strategy should accomplish

two goals: create a positive social impact, and enhance the

company's brand, reputation, employee morale, and its bottom line.

Every organization should know whether CSR benefits the brand,

affects customer retention and boosts the reputation of the business.

CSR has five main benefits for an organization which are: positive

effects on company and brand reputation, positive impact on

employee morale, retention and recruitment, cost savings, revenue

increase from higher sales and market share and finally CSR related

risk reduction.

Detailed history of CSR has been explained in this paper to show

that how this concept has developed and flourished over time.

History of CSR is as old as trade and business itself. With the

industrialization the impact of business on society and environment

entered a new dimension. The entrepreneurs of the late nineteenth

and early twentieth century started to use some of their wealth to

support philanthropic activities. Different authors have given

different definitions for CSR and no one single definition is used as

universal definition of CSR.

In the analysis this paper has used Carroll’s framework to examine

the CSR activities of six companies. Carroll in his famous CSR

pyramid model defines four types of corporate responsibilities:

economic, legal, ethical and discretionary (philanthropic)

responsibilities. In the analysis CSR activities of Mobilink, Nike,

Shell, FFC, Unilever and Coca Cola have been analyzed thoroughly

by data gathered through their CSR reports. By dividing the CSR

activities in Carroll’s framework we were able to identify the activity

or activities on which companies focus more. CSR motivations of

all of these companies were analyzed by thoroughly studying

different CSR reports, websites etc. of these companies. The focus of

activities is almost the same for most of companies. All the

companies make charity and donations on regular basis. They all are

supporting the community development.

To check whether these companies are more focused on

environmental, social, economic or stakeholders’ dimensions while

adopting their CSR activities, CSR dimensions by Dahlsrud were

applied. CSR dimension of all the companies is different from each

other. It is interesting to know that economic dimension is present in

CSR activities of all companies.

ABSTRACT

A comparative study on giant magnetoimpedance (GMI) of series

and parallel current flowing through two amorphous Co-based wires

in parallel setup has been reported in this work. The direction of

current flowing through two parallel wires geometry is important for

GMI effect. This phenomenon is effectively enhanced by the mutual

magnetic interaction between two parallel wires in series and parallel

current mode. The best GMI response measured in series current

type and 8 mm distance between two wires. In two-wire series

current system the magnetic interaction is stronger than parallel

current system because the magnetic field interactions add to other.

The GMI ratio increase from 300% of single wire to 480% of two

wires in series current type. However when the current is in parallel

current mode, the effective magnetic field reduces and the GMI ratio

decreases to 200%. These results show that the GMI response could

be effectively improved in two-wire series current system, which is

useful for the application of low dimensional and high sensitive GMI

sensors.

Dietary Intake of Macronutrient and Basic Metabolic Index

(BMI) of Women in Rural Pakistan

Mr. Muhammad Israr

Scientific Officer Pakistan Science Foundation G-5/2, 1-

Constitution Avenue Islamabad

ABSTRACT

Nutritional status is the best indicator of a population’s consumption

of essential nutrients and defense against diseases and in Asia,

women plays a central role in the family and the ill effects of

malnutrition are propagated to generations through women. This

study was designed to investigate the nutritional status and macro

nutrient (protein, energy and fats) intake of women in rural area of

Pakistan. Three villages were selected on the basis that farmers

community were living there and these villages were far away from

each others’ covering ethnic and geographical variation. Fifty

women were selected from each village for the study. Information

about food intake was obtained by filling a questionnaire. Ten

women were selected from each selected 50 women of each village

for duplicate food sample. The details of food intake in questionnaire

were converted into nutrient intake and duplicate food samples were

collected from these women and analyzed for proximate

composition. The results of questionnaire show the range of macro

nutrient intakes which were; protein 6.0 % to 9 %; fat 6 % to 15 %;

Nitrogen Free Extract 25 % to 47 %; The energy content ranged

from 1485/day to 2866 Kcal/day. The results of duplicate sample

show the range of macro nutrient intakes which were; protein 3.0 %

to 7 %; fat 1 % to 4 %; Nitrogen Free Extract 13 % to 24 %. In

conclusion it can be inferred that quite a small proportion of women

in the target population were in the range of normal BMI and the

curve was skewed towards right indicating the overweight and

obesity was quite common. This seems to be the result of low level

of physical activity than over eating because energy intake was not

very high among the subjects.

ABSTRACT

Morphometry analysis of Orammiriukwa river system has been

carried out using planimeter and atlas maps. The Orammiriukwa

river system as defined in this study includes Rivers Orammiriukwa,

Mba and Okitankwu located in Imo State of Nigeria. Morphometry

parameters considered for analysis include the linear and areal aspect

of the basin only. The Orammiriukwa basin covers an area of

919.979km2 and is a 4

th order drainage basin with mainly dendritic

drainage pattern. The maximum stream frequency is in the 2nd

order

streams, an indication that the basin is prone to erosion. The length

of the river system was evaluated as 93.45km.

The length-area relation is L = 8.308A0.1987 and center of gravity of

the watershed is 5°331N, 7°81E . The mean bifurcation ratio is 2.569

indicating that the watershed is not affected by structural

disturbances. The basin has low drainage density of 0.102 indicating

very less permeable subsoil and sparse vegetation. The length of the

overland flow values of the basin is 4.558km, indicating that the

surface runoff of the catchment is high. It is recommended that the

morphometric data generated through this study are used to prioritize

the Orammiriukwa watershed.

positively or negatively affect the organization.

Corporate social responsibility is the constant dedication by

organizations to behave ethically and contribute to economic

development while improving the quality of life for community at

large. CSR shows a company’s commitment towards its stakeholders

which includes employees, customers, suppliers, investors,

government agencies etc. By embracing CSR an organization can get

great support from the community, so CSR must be taken seriously

by the companies. A social responsibility strategy should accomplish

two goals: create a positive social impact, and enhance the

company's brand, reputation, employee morale, and its bottom line.

Every organization should know whether CSR benefits the brand,

affects customer retention and boosts the reputation of the business.

CSR has five main benefits for an organization which are: positive

effects on company and brand reputation, positive impact on

employee morale, retention and recruitment, cost savings, revenue

increase from higher sales and market share and finally CSR related

risk reduction.

Detailed history of CSR has been explained in this paper to show

that how this concept has developed and flourished over time.

History of CSR is as old as trade and business itself. With the

industrialization the impact of business on society and environment

entered a new dimension. The entrepreneurs of the late nineteenth

and early twentieth century started to use some of their wealth to

support philanthropic activities. Different authors have given

different definitions for CSR and no one single definition is used as

universal definition of CSR.

In the analysis this paper has used Carroll’s framework to examine

the CSR activities of six companies. Carroll in his famous CSR

pyramid model defines four types of corporate responsibilities:

economic, legal, ethical and discretionary (philanthropic)

responsibilities. In the analysis CSR activities of Mobilink, Nike,

Shell, FFC, Unilever and Coca Cola have been analyzed thoroughly

by data gathered through their CSR reports. By dividing the CSR

activities in Carroll’s framework we were able to identify the activity

or activities on which companies focus more. CSR motivations of

all of these companies were analyzed by thoroughly studying

different CSR reports, websites etc. of these companies. The focus of

activities is almost the same for most of companies. All the

companies make charity and donations on regular basis. They all are

supporting the community development.

To check whether these companies are more focused on

environmental, social, economic or stakeholders’ dimensions while

adopting their CSR activities, CSR dimensions by Dahlsrud were

applied. CSR dimension of all the companies is different from each

other. It is interesting to know that economic dimension is present in

CSR activities of all companies.

ABSTRACT

This study was carried out to examine the total carbon stock and its

potential carbon market value at Carey Island mangrove forest,

Selangor, Malaysia. Two sites were chosen: (ODCC and Kg.

Melayu) as they represent the dominant mangrove species,

(Avicennia alba, Rhizophora apiculata, Rhizophora mucronata and

Xylocarpus granatum). Data collection was done across three

seasons: Intermediate, dry and wet of both sites in order to get one

year average. Sampled mangrove species were sorted out into leaves,

branches, stems, bark (aboveground), roots (belowground) and litter;

soil samples were collected at 0-10, 10-20 and 20-30 cm deep.

Carbon organic content was determined using furnace (LOI)

followed by a conversion factor. The data obtained were utilized to

compare the results between species, tree partitioning, soil depth,

seasons and different siting. Results showed that carbon is more

allocated in the bark and within 20-30 cm deep underground. In

vegetations, results for intermediate and dry seasons revealed that

the total stock of carbon is not significantly different 5.11 t/ha and

5.22 t/ha in ODCC, and 9.32 t/ha and 9.62 t/ha in Kg. Melayu

respectively. In soil, results for intermediate and dry seasons brought

to light that the total carbon stock is not significantly different

1050.71 t/ha and 1058.96 t/ha in ODCC, and 930.48 t/ha and 967.58

t/ha in Kg. Melayu respectively. The total coverage of mangrove

forest is Carey Island was estimated 182.72 ha. So the total carbon

stock on Carey Island is 202716.87 (t/ha C yrˉ¹) which is subjected

to change as the study is proceeded to the wet season.

Key words: Mangrove, Carey Island, Biomass, Carbon Stock,

ABSTRACT

The adsorption removal of crystal violet (CV) on chemically

modified Date palm cellulose (CMDPC) were investigated using

batch adsorption technique. The investigation was carried out by

studying the influence of initial solution pH, Time, adsorbent dosage

and initial concentration of Crystal violet, and temperature. The

single component equilibrium data was analyzed using Langmuir,

Freundlich, Dubinin-Radushkevich and Temkin adsorption

isotherms. The results showed that equilibrium was reached within

20 min. The used biosorbent gave the highest adsorption capacity at

pH 8. The experimental isotherm data were analyzed and modeled.

The maximum adsorption capacity, Langmuir’s qmax, improved

from 11.71 to 12.05 mg/g as the temperature increased from 20 to

40°C. The enthalpy ΔH° and entropy ΔS° values were respectively

estimated at 45.4 kJ mol-1 and -0.206 kJ K-1 mol-1 The adsorption

of CV on (CMDPC) is a spontaneous process. It was shown that the

adsorption of Crystal violet could be described by the pseudo-

second order equation, suggesting that the adsorption process is

presumable a chemisorption.

properties were the focus of the study in order to prove the efficiency

of adding fine sand to improve adhesive properties and reduce cost.

Based on the compressive and flexural tests, results indicated that

the addition of sand to the adhesive improved its mechanical

properties when sand is 50% of the total weight of the adhesive.

However, its effect on the modulus of elasticity is minimal. Using

adhesive with fine sand increased the ultimate load bearing capacity,

ductility, stiffness and toughness of the reinforced concrete beams

strengthened by CFRP. The study also revealed that the best ratio of

fine-sand to adhesive in terms of cost reduction, maintaining

workability, and enhancing the mechanical properties is 1. Lastly,

the use of fine sand with adhesive ensured a significant reduction in

the cost of the adhesive and increased the adhesive resistance to

temperature.

ABSTRACT

Two oils were separated using Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC)

and initial characterisation of the aliphatic and aromatic fraction was

carried out by GC and GC/MS analysis. Asphaltenes from the crude

oil were then extracted and subjected to ruthenium ion catalysed

oxidation (RICO) in order to investigate the hydrocarbon and

biomarkers occluded onto the asphaltenes. The asphaltene-bound

hydrocarbons were compared with the maltene-derived hydrocarbon

to evaluate the effect of biodegradation on asphaltene-bound

biomarkers. The biodegraded maltene-derived hydrocarbons show

depletion of n-alkanes, acyclic isoprenoids and alteration to sterane

and hopane biomarkers. However, asphaltene-bound hydrocarbon

shows n-alkanoic acid distribution from C7 – C34 which

corresponds to n-alkanes suggesting protection of the hydrocarbons

from biodegradation. The steranoic acids of non-degraded sample

show similar distribution to corresponding steranes in the maltenes.

This is different for biodegraded samples which have different

distribution of steranoic acids with the steranes counterparts in the

maltenes suggesting secondary oil charging from different source.

Hopanoic acids distribution for both samples show similar

distribution as compared to their hopane counterparts in maltenes.

The distribution of asphaltene-bound biomarkers is suggested to

represent two oil samples which is protected from biodegradation as

a result of being occluded onto asphaltenes. This result shows the

possibility of using asphaltene-bound biomarkers as an alternative

ABSTRACT

In practice, the properties of the neodymium magnets are highly

dependent on the precise composition of the alloy and its

microstructure. The aim of our work is to determine the content of

neodymium and the impurities of a magnet Nd-Fe-B. This work is

financially supported by the Research Thematic Agency in Science

and Technology. The first step is to analyze the impurities from a

super NdFeB magnet. We used the following techniques: The

neutron radiography, the neutron activation analysis (NAA) and the

scanning electron microscope coupled with EDX. The samples of

NdFeB and standards are weighed and packed in polyethylene

envelopes. They are simultaneously irradiated in thermal reactors

column (NUR Draria-Algiers) under a neutron flux of

3.4x1012n/cm²/s. The radioactivity of the samples is measured using

100keV and 2000keV. The detected elements are: Ni, Al, Ti, Cu,

Mn, In, Ta, Ce, Sm, Eu, Np, Yb, Gd, Lu. The digital processing of

the images obtained by the neutron radiography shows that in the

NdFeB matrix, the distribution of elements is homogeneous. The

SEM micrographies show three different phases of contrasts: light,

gray and black which correspond to Nd, Fe, and B. In a second step

the powder is dissolved in hydrochloric acid solution. We add an

oxalic acid solution to precipitate Nd as neodymium oxalate. The

identification of the most intense peaks in the XRD spectrum shows

the presence of a single compound which is hydrated neodymium

oxalate chemical formula Nd2(C2O4)3.10H2O. Its purity is

measured by neutron activation analysis. The counting of γ spectrum

shows that the purity of the precipitate is higher than 99%. Then, the

thermal decomposition transforms this powder to neodymium oxide.

After the reduction we obtain pure neodymium. The analytical

balance shows that this magnet contains 26% of neodymium.

ABSTRACT

Neodymium-iron-boron alloys are very sensitive, particularly to the

air humidity. The aim of this work is to study the effectiveness of

polymer coatings against corrosion in the cases cited above. This

work is financially supported by the Research Thematic Agency in

Science and Technology. In this context we introduced the neutron

reflectometry to study the ultra-thin polymer film interfaces of

polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA). Reflectometry experiments were

conducted at the nuclear research center of Draria (Algiers). The

preparation of the PMMA films is performed by means a technique

based on depositing a thin film on a planar solid surface. This

method known as the “spin-coating’’ provides dense, homogeneous

materials very thin after a rapid evaporation of the total solvent.

First, we realized calibration settings "zero" reflectometer: one seeks

the zero position of the detector, the optimal position of the sample

and its angle of rotation. The measured reflectivity as a function of

the scattering vector Q, gives information on the thickness of layers,

roughness of multilayer system. From the spectrum of the

reflectivity vs. the wave vector (scan q-2q of the PMMA film), we

find a thickness of the PMMA film. Electrochemical measurements

were performed in a three electrode cell using an VoltaLab Master4,

Model 273A potentiostat. The samples of Nd-Fe-B magnets covered

by the PMMA film are used as working electrode in the NaCl

(0.5M) solution, a platinum wire as counter electrode and a saturated

calomel electrode (SCE) as reference electrode. The polarization

parameter values, corrosion current density (Icorr) and the

polarization resistance (Rp) were determined. The corrosion rate

values obtained show interesting perspectives for our work. The

corrosion resistance is improved in the presence of PMMA layers.

We note that for variable thickness of PMMA film 485nm and

1,5µm the polarization resistance are 518Wcm² and 6550Wcm²

respectively. The corrosion rate values obtained show interesting

perspectives for our work. The corrosion resistance is improved in

the presence of PMMA layers

ABSTRACT

The incorporation of silica fume into the normal concrete is a routine

in the present days to produce the tailor made high strength and high

performance concrete. The strength of concrete increases with

incorporation of silica fume in partial replacement of cement in a

high strength concrete. The main objective of this research work has

been made to investigate the compressive strength of concrete

incorporating silica fume. In this present research work 5 (five)

different mix of concrete were made incorporating silica fume.

These experiments were carried out by replacing cement with

different percentages of silica fume at a single constant water-

cement ratio keeping other mix design variables constant. The silica

fume was replaced by 0%, 5%, 10% and 15% with constant water-

cement ratio of 0.40. The silica fume incorporated concrete were

tested for 1 day, 7 days, 28 days and 60 days compressive strength.

Other fresh concrete properties like compacting factor and slump

were also determined for five mixes of concrete to find the

workability of the concrete.

School of civil engineering, University Linton College, Malaysia

ABSTRACT

This paper represents the experimental results of a concrete using

seashell as a partial replacement. The present work is to investigate

the effects of seashells in concrete production to produce high

strength concrete. The compressive strength, flexural strength and

split tensile strength tests were carried out with different

proportioned sea shells at different curing days, as well as finding

the optimum percentages of sea shell replacements to give targeted

strengths.

The concrete samples were prepared by adding seashells about 0%,

10%, 20%, 30% and 40% as a partial replacement to coarse

aggregate. All these samples were cured for 7 days, 14 days and 28

days before the compressive, split tensile and flexural test were

carried out.

A total of 135 specimens were casted and tested for five mixtures in

their proportions so as to determine the mechanical properties of the

concrete. It should be noted that no additives were added to the mix

except sea shell as a partial replacement coarse aggregate. A total of

45 cubes were casted for compressive strength test with dimensions

of (150mm x150mm x150mm) and 45 prisms were casted for

flexural strength test with dimensions of (100mm x100mm x300mm)

and remaining 45 cylinders casted for split tensile strength test with

dimensions of (100mm x200). After these tests were carried out, the

results were used to compare with those of the control experiment.

The results showed a decrease in density due to increase in seashell

content and a high strength value obtained for 20% replacement. It

was noted that implementing seashells in the concrete mix can be

used to produce a lightweight concrete with high strength.

Keywords: coarse aggregate, Seashells, compressive strength,

flexural strength, split tensile strength.

ABSTRACT

Urges for sustainable development had pushed the government and

professional bodies to respond and react by implementing

regulations where possible to direct development in that manner.

However, the outcome in most financial conferences and dialogues

on sustainable buildings flagged on high construction and

maintenance cost. Thus, this study is conducted to collect and

analyze actual building operation and maintenance cost between GBI

and Non-GBI rated buildings in Malaysia. There are three categories

of selected buildings which are residential building, hotel building

and office building. Each category of the building consists of similar

building’s characteristic such as geographic location, building

heights, total numbers of floors and units. The scope of building’s

maintenance for this study is on wear and tear of the wall painting,

electrical light fittings, ceiling panels, roofing system and

mechanical services like water pump system are recorded for their

frequency of service and the cost involved within a period of 12

months operation at cost percentage saving of 78.9%, 67.4% and

40.4% for residential building, hotel building and office building

respectively compare to Non-GBI rated buildings. Electricity

consumption for GBI rated buildings are lower than Non-GBI rated

buildings which recorded at the cost variance of 42.9%, 21.8% and

9.3% and water consumption at 35.9%, 49.6% and 44.0% for the

abovementioned three categories of selected buildings. With these

results, this study hope to convince stakeholders of the industry to

invest on GBI related technologies and consumers will rest assured

that sustainable construction does benefit in cost saving.

ABSTRACT

Mining laws in various countries require trained mine rescue

personnel at all mining operations at surface and underground

mining operations. Mine rescue teams must have the knowledge of

the procedures used to rescue miners trapped by various hazards,

including fire, explosions, toxic gas, smoke inhalation, and water

entering the mine. A delay in seconds can cost life of victims to the

underground mine accidents. So there is a need of a vehicle which

can considerably reduce the time of travel in rescuing operations in

underground mines. This paper discusses on the various fatalities

associated with underground mine accidents, design of Rakshak, the

underground mine ambulance which have specially designed seating

configurations for a paramedic to stabilize an injured person while

driving and equipped with all necessary medications. The potential

of Rakshak to serve its purpose for rescuing operations in

Underground mines and its deployment in such hazardous and risky

environment is also analyzed. The design of Rakshak is done using

Solid works software.

ABSTRACT

Explosion Cladding is process of joining two or more dissimilar

metals which cannot be welded together by means of explosion or

blasting. Blasting processes makes use of explosives and the process

of explosion itself means sudden conversion of explosive material

into gaseous products releasing violent pressure, sound and heat. The

unavoidable effects of blasting include release of noxious gases,

ground vibrations, noise; fly rocks etc., which damages the

surrounding structures and environment. These effects however can

be reduced up to acceptable limits for safer conditions. Studies were

done at different sites at various locations in an effort to reduce the

effect of blast vibrations and noise on surrounding structures.

Damage criteria for safety of the structures and persons in the

surrounding area were also evaluated to suggest suitable control

measures. This paper discusses various methods and suggestions that

can be implemented to reduce the negative effects of Blast

Vibrations and noise on surrounding structures near explosive

cladding sites.

ABSTRACT

The use of nuclear energy as an energy generating plenty of

controversy on the various parties invited. National energy

consumption continues to increase every year, and the decline in

crude oil production , requiring government policies to conserve

energy. Nuclear energy is one energy source that has the potential to

help address the nation's energy problems. Based on data from Draft

Indonesia Nuclear Energy Outlook 2014, the National Nuclear

Energy Agency (BATAN), total reserves (speculative) uranium in

Indonesia stood at 59.200 tonnes, equivalent to 6.5 GWe (gigawatt

equivalent). While total reserves (speculative) thorium amounted to

1.500 tons, or the equivalent of 1,850 Mwe (MegaWatt equivalent)

for 30 years of operation. Nuclear energy is part of the new

renewable energy. The President Decree no.5 year 2006 to the legal

basis for the use of renewable energy to include it in the national

energy mix in 2025 of more than 5% of the national energy mix.

Nevertheless the construction of nuclear power plants installation

reap many pro and contra. In this paper will be discussed in a

qualitative analysis of the various sectors of the nuclear power plants

such as the energy sector, political, environmental, economic, safety,

and social. And will be compared to the standard application of the

Nuclear Power Plants (NPP) from the International Atomic Energy

Agency (IAEA). And also will display the results of a randomly

online survey are used to seeing the response of ordinary people who

are already familiar with information technology for nuclear power

plants. Feedback society deemed to have been familiar with good

information technology demonstrates the persistence of the

vacillation of society against nuclear power plants. It is seen from

ABSTRACT

National sugar industry holds an important role to meet the growing

demand for sugar. Along with economic growth and technological

progress, Indonesia is one of the rich country of human resources,

plants, and as agrarian country have very lush land. Land of

Indonesia have good potention that every plants can grow.

Sugarcane is grown often face difficulties, especially on soil

properties, soil texture, and soil conditions. One of the effort can to

solving the problem is soil tillage. Application of mechanization can

to managing the building of irrigation, drainage, flood, water control

system, performing environmental impact assessments, and

agricultural product processing. Soil tillage have two parts about

primary tillage and secondary tillge that have some function to

change soil texture, soil properties, and soil condition so that

sugarcane can grow well. There are four kinds of soil tillage that

using full mechanization for tractor and implement used, they are :

Plowing I ,Plowing II , Harrowing, Furrowing. The objectives of the

field practice were to make land suitability map for sugarcaneplant

(Saccharum officinarum), to give recommendation of location

including area for sugarcane plant cultivation and to increase

sugarcane plant productivity. Parameter measured show that Bigger

field efficiency when harrowing activities is 93.24 % and have

minimum fuel consumption cost amount of 74585.64 Rp/acre if it

compared with other soil tillage. Minimum field efficiency when

plowing I activities is 60.22 % and have bigger fuel consumption

cost is 232758.6 Rp/acre.

ABSTRACT

Every individual has a tendency to save for various reasons. They

may be for short term purposes like paying for a holding or for

buying a car or they may be made for long term purposes such as

constructing a house or providing for retirement. Sometimes savings

are made simply to meet unknown contingencies. Man works to earn

income to meet his own needs. Every man has unlimited wants and

to satisfy these wants, he works and continues to work for a long

time. Income earning is the predominant and prime motive in every

body’s life. Individuals normally take their own time to settle down

in a job and to become successful investors. Though the prime

objective of income earning is to pay for his demands, still income

has got a different role to play. The desire to earn and save for future

needs dominates the minds of the income earners. Further, there is

no guarantee that surplus will result into savings. Willingness to save

is more important than capacity to save. It is true to say that when

there is willingness to save, the capacity to save can be created.

Savings by itself don’t provide any return. It merely provides safety.

Man would like to get some return from his savings. Further, he has

reached a stage where the rate of returns decides his investment

pattern.

Keywords: investment, income earning, successful investors.

ABSTRACT

The aim of this research is to find the relationship between audit

alumni and audit fee. I will focus on alumni gender and alumni

ethnicity as to the best of my knowledge, there are still very limited

numbers of researcher study on this alumni characteristic.

Nowadays, the term of independence is no longer being applied in

some of the company. As has been highlighted under MIA By-Laws

(2007, p. 28), one of the factors that can reduce the level of

independence is audit alumni or former partner which can create

familiarity threats by creating a special relationship between audit

alumni and external auditor. The main approach used in the present

in this study is quantitative because the research questions aim

mainly to find the relationships among the variables. The primary

findings in this research is the effect of audit alumni by adjusting the

level of audit fee, but however there is a few limitations in preparing

this paper, especially during data collection whereby some of the

company will not disclose the details of their audit fee information

and some of the company will be too secretive in disclosing the audit

alumni background. My paper extends and contributes to prior

literature in a number of ways in term of practice and theory. Firstly,

in terms of practice. By conducting this research I will address the

alumni effect on audit fees. The second contribution of this study

derives from the theory development. In this research, Social

Exchange Theory will explain the benefit maximization and cost

minimization which explains the alumni effect on audit fees.

ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study is to know and to examine the

relationships of several key factors in creating a sense of fraud

awareness among the practitioners. Fraud awareness in nowadays

world especially those who involve in the preparation of

amcompany’s financial reporting mseems to be important to ensure

the sustainability of the company in future. From the reading

of literature review, there are six factors that can help in creating

fraud awareness among mpractitioners. Each variable is measured

using 5-point interval scale: forensic accounting (4 items), fraud

cases (4 items), training (4 items), member composition (4 items),

job position (4 items), and integrity (4 items). The data being

collected by using primary data collection which 200 questionnaires

were distributed to the target respondents. Unit of analysis for this

study are the practitioners of a company in Malaysia. Out of 200

questionnaires distributed to the respondents, only 193

questionnaires being collected representing 96.5 percent response

rate. All the data being analysed using Structural equation modelling

which also known as SEM and AMOS 16. The goodness of fit for

the model only achieved after several deletions made on the items

through modification indices verifications.

GIC1591082 Lean Principles: A Necessary Tool In Curtailing Material

Wastge On Consruction Sites..

Maria Musa Mukaddas, sadis, a. M. , izam, y. D

Building Technology Department, School of Environmental

Technology,Abubakar Tatari Ali Polytechnic Bauchi.

ABSTRACT

The research focused on the knowledge and application of lean

principles in curtailing material wastage in construction sites by

different construction professional in Nigeria. 1000 questionnaires

were administered to Architects, Quantity surveyors, Building

engineers, civil engineers and support staff. The questionnaires

accessed their knowledge, use and barriers in the application of the

principle. The results suggest a great number of respondents (57%)

had little or no knowledge of the concept ;,( 12%) claim to know the

principle but do not apply it; a great number know the concept but

had barriers stopping them from its application while a percentage

know the concept but apply it from time to time.. Overall the results

suggest the major cause of material waste on construction sites could

be attributed to poor planning and/or management; low quality

control and blatant carelessness. Inappropriate designs, unsuitable

specifications, inadequate supervision of labor attributed to the

moderate causes of waste; absence of current technology , untimely

acquisition of resources and stealing served as the low potential

causes. Analysis of results showed wastes of indicated: 40%, 28%,

15%, 10% and 32% for sand; cement; aggregate; formwork and

bricks respectively. Iinability of professionals in the application of

lean principles in construction either as a result of lack of

information or strong barriers preventing them. This inability to

apply the principle is one of the major causes of high level of

material wastages; poor quality; inefficiencies and hazards in

construction sites. The effective application of the principles will go

a long way in cutting down cost of construction thereby improving

the local and global economies.

India has many major holiday and festival seasons. Traditionally

customers in India wait for the festive season to shop. Due to this

deferred purchase, retailers normally experience a rise in purchase

during festive season. Festivals contribute 20per cent to revenue of

retailer as People are making new purchases even during regional

festivals. As festive season in India is very vital to the consumer

durable companies because around 60 per cent of the consumer

durable product sales happens during this up beat selling season.

Fashion clothing and brands have many reasons to celebrate on

every festive season as consumers are purchasing apparel, footwear

and accessories in larger numbers than expected, ahead of a long line

of festivals and during wedding season.

The festive feel good factor, gifting and targeted campaigns of

retailer all contribute to this growth. The sales promotion during

festive seasons includes festive discounts, selling gift cards,

corporate vouchers, etc. have “bundling” feature for festive offers.

Moreover, robust economic growth and increasing spending power.

Although India’s economic growth has slowed in recent years, the

country still remains a promising emerging economy with a growth

story that is expected to remain nearly intact over the short to

medium run. With increase in economic activity, job opportunities

and spending power have increased across the country which in turn

has contributed to the heightened demand for sweets, clothing,

accessories, electrical, electronic goods, luxury goods etc., during

festive seasons.

ABSTRACT

This paper outlines the requirement for a successful measurement of

an equipment named Mass Properties Measurement System (MPMS)

which capable to calculate the center of gravity (CG), moment of

inertia (MOI) and Product of Inertia (POI) of a satellite. POI-1000M

is the model type for this equipment which can measure a specimen

from 10 kilogram and up to 1 ton in weight. Go through a factory

acceptance test (FAT) is compulsory before receiving a machine,

which has been done earlier in Connecticut, USA. Then, National

Space Agency (ANGKASA) which acts as a Malaysian Government

Agency has to experience through an Acceptance Test Procedure

(ATP) to compare on the performance review with FAT. This ATP

was conducted on determining the requirements of a specification or

contract are met or not by conducting test which is commonly

applied for engineering and its various sub disciplines. The ATP was

done in ANGKASA headquarters located in Banting, Selangor and

have been witnessed by a Malaysian Research Institute; SIRIM

Berhad, local and international contractors as well as the principal of

the equipment itself. The ATP may involve chemical tests, physical

tests, or performance tests by comparing the results with FAT

(“Acceptance testing”, 2015). Both environmental condition and

steady equipment preparations gave big influence for having

optimum reading. POI-1000M Rotary table, deadweights and a

compressor are the main components assisted by a control system

used by operators to calculate the desired measurements during the

ATP. By comparing both the ATP and FAT results, it has been

confirmed that the equipment is successfully approved and satisfied

on its performance.

polluting the waters and the aquatic environment. On the other hand

hyacinth very helpful in reducing the environmental pollution caused

by household waste and residual waste feed-forage fish, as well as

pollution caused by other chemical substances that are dangerous to

human health. Besides the water hyacinth can also reduce levels of

heavy metals contained in a body of water. In the field of modern

agriculture, water hyacinth can also be used as a growing medium,

or may be used for the manufacture of organic fertilizer for plants in

the greenhouse or dilur. This is because the water hyacinth has

organic substances indispensable plant. For certain regions, hyacinth

also has a high potential to be used as handicrafts, which would add

to the welfare of the area.

propellants due to its high energy density in addition to easy storage

and handling properties. Characterisation of HAN was done via

thermal studies of binary HAN solution. In order to understand the

effect of zero oxygen balance on HAN ternary mixture, electrolytic

decomposition experiment in thermal isolated beaker was performed

on these mixtures. Result shows that oxygen balance does not

directly correspond to maximum electrolytic decomposition

temperature (Tmax) of respective fuel. Dielectric constant was found

to have inverse relationship with Tmax. Dielectric constant of

mixtures was obtained by taking into consideration of polarisation of

mixture that Y = -5.641X + 512.8, where Y represents Tmax and X

represents dielectric constant of mixture.A prototype of

microcombustion chamber is fabricated using

polydimethyl(siloxane) (PDMS) as structural material. Positive and

negative moulding techniques are used in fabricating the

microcombustion chamber successfully. In conclusion,

decomposition behaviour of tertiary HAN solution in macroscale

was investigated. Current study provides a preliminary screening of

tertiary fuel that is added to HAN solution for its formulation as a

monopropellant. This project is important in order to obtain a more

efficient microcombustion chamber using HAN solution, so that to

be used in micropropulsion system.

pillars of development in recent years. Based on World Tourism

Organization forecasts and research, growth of this industry in 2010

is about 6.7 percent. For this purpose, rural tourism, especially in

industrialized countries, considered and today have important role in

their economic and this fact that Iran is one of 10 country in terms

of tourism resources , can grow this industry with correctly planned.

Special climatic and specific boundaries of Iran have created various

ABSTRACT

Without a doubt, ideal agricultural conditions, is the influence of

weather and climatic conditions. The supply of moisture and

required water for the plant is very important. Therefore, to check

the condition of dry and wet periods in the province rainfall statistics

were obtained of 4 stations located in the province over the period

1992-2010 of the National Meteorology Organization and wheat

yield data from the Agriculture and Horticulture Department of

Agricultural Jihad Organization. Then, using the standardized

precipitation index SPI were identified dry and wet periods of the

stations and correlated between wheat yield and using linear

regression model, were estimated and predicted the performance

modeling. The results showed that two stations Biarjmand and

Sharood most were correlated in changes wheat yield and then,

stations Garmsar and Semnan. Based on the proposed model

indicated that the model is significant at the 0.04 level and the

coefficient of determination was 0.48.

ABSTRACT

Rural and nomadic communities make the most detriment to the

country's biological renewable resources system. The government

should by providing living proper conditions such as employment

and living facilities, nomadic have to be sedentary. Settled families

have different costs such as housing, clothing, education and energy.

One of the major costs is housing and energy. Given that renewable

energies requires a high initial investment, the government can for

providing their required energy to use from renewable energy.

Providing energy the communities by new energies for government

economically affordable and because reduce energy costs will be

well encourager for nomadic. The first is the need to invest a lot, but

over time gradually costs will be repaid and society will turn to the

new economic conditions. In this research more attention has been

paid to biogas and solar desalinization to use them in Iran’s rural

communities and move towards ecosystems sustainable

development, which examine cases including, their importance,

potentials in the country, various methods of harvest, the simple idea

of making device, calculate the resulting energy and electricity price,

especially for rural communities and the factors affecting their

production - according to the case study that was conducted in

Semnan province. Also, are discussed the approximate ratio of

carbon to nitrogen in some of fermented materials in biogas

digesters, gas production potential for various animal wastes and

produced waste and a minimum gas from them in the digester. Under

the new plan, I can make the device less expensive. The energy has

many advantages for the fragile environmental including rangeland

and environmental conservation, dynamics economic and social

situation, reduce air, soil and water pollution and reduce the

consumption of fossil fuels.

ABSTRACT

It is expected for desert vegetation to decrease as a result of a decline

in soil fertility following the decrease in the moisture due to the

increase in CO2 levels. But reactions of different plants to increased

CO2 is variable and some species react better than others in

photosynthesis, water use efficiency, stomatal conductivity and other

physiological properties and consequently will dominate the plant

community under changing climate. It may be considered as an

opportunity to establish an intended ecosystem in desert areas.

desert (Dasht-e- Kavir) has geomorphological typical symptoms like

unique forms resultant from exploratory and accumulative activities

of wind and also sports, historical and scientific charismata. The

present study was conducted with the aim of investigating the geo-

tourism capacities and limitations and also developing the best

strategy to improve the tourism management in the area.

Methodology was comprised of two procedures including library-

based and field studies. In library-based studies, data were collected

referring to libraries and organizations like Iran Statistics Center. In

the case of field studies, data were collected through direct

observations (photographs and films), interviews and questionnaires.

Parallel with that, a number of 10 questionnaires were filled using

Delphi method and analyzed using SWOT model. Finally, the

internal and external factors were evaluated and the relevant

strategies were extracted. The extracted internal and external matrix

showed that WO strategies are more prior to be implemented and the

studied factors were finally prioritized using quantity strategic

planning matrix (QSPM) as 1) charismata conservation, 2)

construction and improvement of the status of residential-service

units, 3) providing vast propaganda, 4) promotion of transportation

network, 5) expert enforcement, 6) introducing tourism culture to the

natives and 7) providing native cultural products respectively.

ABSTRACT

In this paper, a capacitance monitoring system for electrostatic wind

energy harvesters has been proposed. First, the operation of the

harvester and the harvesting cycle is explained in details. Second, the

capacitance monitoring system is demonstrated. Third the simulation

and experimental testing of the monitoring system is presented. The

capacitance monitoring system requires a microcontroller to sense

the change in capacitance and to provide controlling signals to

operate the harvester during the harvesting cycle. Results of the

testing proved successful operation of the monitoring system in

detecting capacitance variation with time.

ABSTRACT

Glucose alkaline fuel cells catch enormous attention only in the

recent years. Glucose is nontoxic, non-flammable, odorless and

renewable. These properties make glucose an attractive fuel for

various applications, particularly for portable electronic

devices.Platinum is used as electrocatalyst in this system. Many

factors influence on electrocatalytic activity of this electrocatalyst. In

this work, cyclic voltammetry deposition method (-0.2 to 1.2 V

versus Ag/AgCl, 100 mVs-1 scan rate and 30 scan number) was used

for preparation of platinum electrocatalyst. For optimization

electrodeposition condition, the temperature effect was studied. For

doing that the temperature in electrodeposition process was varied

10 to 80oC. Electrochemical methods were used for evaluating

prepared electrocatalyst for glucose oxidation reaction. According

our results, the varying temperature in electrodeposition process by

cyclic voltammetry (CV) affects on performance of prepared

platinum on carbon electrocatalyst for glucose oxidation reaction.

The optimized temperature is 60oC at this procedure. After this

temperature based on CV deposition diagrams, high mobility of

platinum ions, do not give enough time for the initial nucleation in

electrodeposition process. It is discussed more in this paper.

ABSTRACT

Various theories of quantum gravity predict modifications of the

Heisenberg uncertainty principle near the Planck scale, known as the

generalized uncertainty principle (GUP). In this work, we study the

effects of GUP on the equation of motion of a particle. Here, GUP

preserves the rotational symmetry of the space-time. Then,

considering the Kepler potential, we investigate the orbit motion of a

particle and obtain the contribution of the radial component of the

kinetic energy in this model.

ABSTRACT

We provide a theoretical investigation of the hole - polar optical

phonon scattering processes in thin InxGa1-xAs/GaAs quantum

wells grown in various crystallographic directions, such as [001],

[110] .Using the dielectric continuum model we focus on how the

different scattering processes of holes with interface and confined

phonon modes depend on the initial hole energy. In our work, we use

the Luttinger-Kohn (LK) 6×6 k.p Hamiltonian, along with the

envelope function approximation , from which we compute

numerically the electronic structure of holes for a thin quantum well

sustaining only one bound state for each type of hole thus allowing

for easier analysis of the results by avoiding the cumbersome

presence of the excited subbands that characterizes wider wells. At

finite wave vector, i.e away from the 2D Brillouin zone center, due

to mixing between the heavy, light, and split off bands, hole

subbands exhibit strong nonparabolicity and important warping that

have their word to say on physical properties. Detailed and extensive

calculations that the rates for intra-subband scattering processes

differ significantly from those of bulk GaAs because of quantization

and reduced dimensionality. Moreover, the study of scattering as a

function of hole energy shows that the trend of the scattering rates is

governed mostly by i) overlap integrals and ii) the density of the

final states to which the hole scatters. The influence of warping, in

the hole energy dispersion, on the phonon scattering rates is also

explored and found to be important when the initial hole energy is

high. Our calculations show evidence of strong anisotropy in the

scattering rates especially for processes involving the heavy hole

subband, which anisotropy is in fact quite important and far from

being negligible

ABSTRACT

The purpose of this paper is to find the extent of Special

Needs Students’ (SNS) awareness of disability provision in an

institution because this lack of awareness is affecting their education

drastically. Consequently, leading to frustration, demotivation and

trauma. An empirical study was carried out in a private higher

institution of Malaysia, by identifying ten SNS to be observed and

subsequently they were interviewed. For reliability and validity of

the data the literature review, observation, interviews and content

analysis were carried out to develop a framework to find the extent

of the disability provision in an institution. This framework is

prelude to a comprehensive one in future for the use of variety of

stakeholders including heads of tertiary institutions, NGOs involved

in tertiary education, disability teachers and students with

disabilities.

ABSTRACT

The sub-standard TESOL provision in Pakistan prompted the

researcher to benchmark and gather TESOL good practice in U.K.

The empirical research was carried out in four good primary schools

in Birmingham, U.K. where children from ethnic minorities made up

the majority. This paper explains how benchmarks of UK classroom

management were generated. The interaction of reconnaissance

fieldwork and literature led to the development of an initial TESOL

Benchmark framework through benchmarking research process. To

validate the framework triangulation approach including literature

review, observation (Thick Description), discussions, interviews, and

document analysis were carried out. Finally, administration of the

final framework was conducted in the same four schools where

initial fieldwork was carried out to identify generic benchmarks. An

excerpt has been provided to show the sample of part product. The

generic benchmarks are being utilised in reception, primary and

tertiary classes. This benchmark framework is very useful for

TESOL teachers, teacher trainers, curriculum designers, primary

teachers and other relevant stakeholders.

a shared language is considered one of the mediums to foster the

spirit of nationalism. In the nation building context, this paper

explores role of Malaysia’s education system specifically in its

oscillation between the use of the Malay and English language in the

teachings of Mathematics and Science. A qualitative research

engaged a total of 40 respondents (face to face interviewed) to

examine the relationship between the implementation of education

policy which involves the teaching of Mathematics and Science in

English or Malay to the spirit of nationalism. The focus remained on

the public perception and the manner in which they perceive nation

building. Some of the main findings showed that the students have

mixed feeling about teaching of mathematics and science in English.

There is dire need for more teachers, teacher training,

comprehensive EAP policy and taking students consent. Finally,

teaching of mathematics and science in English does not seem to

affect nation building. The study is useful for education policy

makers, curriculum developers, teachers, head teachers and many

other related stakeholders.

ABSTRACT

Many children with disabilities are integrated into regular schools.

Their parents normally prefer this. Furthermore, mainstreaming

when possible is encouraged under the Individuals with Disabilities

Education Act. However, some children’s disabilities are severe that

they do not thrive in a regular school setting. The purpose of this

paper is to explore parental care of disabled children. For this reason

qualitative method of face to face interviews and observation were

carried out. Some of the main findings include parents’ lukewarm

behavior towards these children, lack of interest to learn sign

language and forcing children to become homesick. However, the

children were found busy in their routine school activities, interested

and becoming independent. The findings are very useful to improve

special school curriculum and to train the parents to become more

ABSTRACT

The original function of the process of platforming is to develop

heavy naphtha (HSRN), coming from the atmospheric unit of

distillation with a weak octane number (NO = 44), to obtain a

mixture of fuels â number octane raised by catalytically supporting

specific groups of chemical reactions. The installation is divided into

two sections:

The rafinat coming from the bottom of column 12C2 to feed the

section platforming, is divided into two parts whose flows are

controlled and mixed with gas rich in hydrogen.

Bottom of the column, we obtain stabilized reformat which is

aspired by there pump to ensure the heating of the column whereas a

part is sent towards storage after being cooled by the air cooler and

the condenser.

In catalytic catalyst of reforming, there is voluntarily associated a

2 0 3 . The mechanism of action of this bifunctionnal catalyst

depends on the severity of the operation, of the quality of the load

and the type of catalyst.

The catalyst used in the catalytic process of reforming is a very

elaborate bifunctional catalyst whose performances are constantly

improved thanks to the experimental research supported on an

increasingly large comprehension of the phenomena.

The American company Universel 0i1 petroleum (UOP) marketed

several series of bimetallic catalysts such as R16, R20, R30 and R62

consisted Platinum / Rhenium on an acid support consisted the

alumina added with a halogenous compound (chlorine) .

KEY WORDS: Platforming, Amelioration, Octane Number,

ABSTRACT

We usually experience queuing on roads. Queuing commonly occurs

at intersections, roundabouts or traffic lights. The aim of this project

is to study the characteristics of dynamic flow of cars at a given

junction. The limitation of this project is that it only considers Y-

junction with all vehicles flowing in one direction without any traffic

light interruption. The project is only limited to dual input lanes with

a single lane output. The model of this project is derived based on

the M/M/1 model. It has been found that when the rate of arriving

vehicle in each individual lane increases, it will directly affect the

queuing on the junction hence resulting in traffic congestion.
