Design of a 100W PV based power supply for lead acid battery charging with MPPT circuit by Erping

“…Modelling of each component namely the Photovoltaic cell, DC-DC Converter, MPPT Circuit and Battery Charging circuit are being done all through the PSIM software and are simulated to provide the results of the findings given the variables involved. All modelling circuit and component sizing are calculated through project research which would be reflected within this paper to produce the resulting to be compared respectively. …”

Understanding the behaviour of engineered nanoparticles in food by Ong, Pei Ying

“…It was revealed that two washes are sufficient to isolate the hard protein corona from the loosely bound proteins (soft protein corona). These findings are useful as they can be used as a basis for future approach to study and understand nanoparticle-corona complexes.…”

Modelling and analysis of lubricated piston skirt-cylinder sub-systems in internal combustion engines by Amirun Rasyid Abu Bakar

“…However, the trend isn’t linear, as it is found that low RPM operating with lubricants of higher viscosities can also generate high FPL and thus, a case study is done to analyse and apply the findings. The different dynamic viscosities of SAE rated engine oils are investigated to be used for our case study. …”

Gender dimorphism in parasitic behavioural manipulation hypothesis by Abdulai-Saiku, Samira

“…Alternatively, I propose a role for the oxytocin system in the MeApd which has an innate gender dimorphic expression and function. Based on my findings, I propose that manipulation by Toxoplasma gondii does not occur at the level of the substrates that are implicated in the mechanism. …”

Local scour beneath a forced-vibrating circular cylinder in unidirectional current by Chok, Man Ming

“…Through reasoning and observations, the following findings were deduced: (i) the scour capacity around a forced vibrating pipeline increases when there is current, (ii) asymmetrical vortices are produced when there is current, (iii) the combined effect of current and vibrating frequency results in different scour shape, (iv) the pounding effect is related to the vibrating frequency whereby the effect is more significant at a higher vibrating frequency (v) the scour process can be divided into a 3-stage scour before reaching the equilibrium and it is affected by the position of the vibrating cylinder. …”

Sport fans’ behaviour : the relationship between nostalgia, team loyalty, attitude toward sponsors, and behavioural intentions by Tan, Doreen Xiaofang

“…Furthermore, team loyalty and attitude toward sponsors partially mediate between nostalgia and behavioural intentions (H7: –0.770, p=0.001). These findings will allow organisations to understand that nostalgia, team loyalty, and attitude toward sponsors are needed as driving factors for football fans to visit the home grounds of football clubs or purchase sponsor products, as well as better predict fans’ behaviour, needs, and demands.…”

Trade Policy Options for ASEAN Countries and Their Regional Dialogue Partners: “Preference Ordering” Using CGE Analysis by Chia, Wai-Mun, Ji, Xianbai, Rana, Pradumna B., Li, Chang Tai

“…Using national real gross domestic output (GDP) gains estimated by the GTAP model to construct “preference ordering” for ten Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and their six regional dialogue partners, this paper comes up with several findings. First, when multilateral agreements are not possible, countries are better off with a narrower regional trading agreement than without one. …”

Caregiving for individuals with neurodevelopmental disability-influence of implicit attitudes and affiliate stigma on expressed emotions by Nee, Michelle Si Hui

“…Among the 21 caregivers in Study 2, 13 caregivers were found to be have discrepancies between quantitative and qualitative measures, which suggest possible intrinsic denial of individual’s NDD condition. The preliminary findings of this study suggest a need for developing a research agenda to better understand the impact of implicit prejudice and affiliate stigma on expressed emotions.…”
