To recognize the different hand gestures for different control system in cars is done through image processing. A new method for the hand gestures is that, the hand part gets extracted from the background using background subtraction algorithm using raspberry pi, there is no need of buttons for using of some equipments in different vehicles by using an advanced technology. In gesture recognition technology we can control the audio and HVAC system automatically instead of searching for a particular button, which causes distraction while driving.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>3193</first_page>     <last_page>3196</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.C9055.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/C9055019320/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>Psychological Features of the Architectural of Dwelling for Students</title> </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>Architecture Department, Moscow State University of Civil Engineering, Moscow, Russian Federation.</organization>    <person_name sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>      <given_name>Aleksey</given_name>      <surname>Popov*</surname>    </person_name>    <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Aleksy</given_name>       <surname>Łapko</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Bialystok University B ł P .</organization>   </contributors>     <jats:abstract xml:lang='en'>         <jats:p>The article considers and summarizes the conclusions of modern psychologists concerning the interaction of students living in student dormitories.

Each cluster consists similar data objects in such a way that data objects in the same cluster are more similar and dissimilar to the data objects of other clusters. Document clustering technique for Gurmukhi script consists two phases namely: 1) Pre-processing phase 2) Processing phase. This paper concentrates pre-processing phase of document clustering technique for Gurmukhi script. The purpose of pre-processing phase is to convert unstructured text into structured text format. Various sub-phases of pre-processing phase are: segmentation, tokenization, removal of stop words, stemming, and normalization. The purpose of this paper is to present the significant role of pre-processing phase in an overall performance of document clustering technique for Gurmukhi script. The experimental results represent the significant role of pre-processing phase in terms of performance regarding assignment of data objects to the relevant clusters as well as in creation of meaningful cluster title list.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>3216</first_page>     <last_page>3220</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.C9105.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/C9105019320/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>An Enhancement of Grami Based on Threshold Policy for Pattern Big Graphs</title> </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>Department of Computer Science &amp; Engineering, Maulana Azad National Institute of Technology, Bhopal (M.P.)

Frequent subgraph mining (FSM) considers isomorphism which is a subprocess of pattern mining is a well-studied problem in the data mining. Graphs are considered as a standard structure in many domains such as protein-protein interaction network in biological networks, wired or wireless interconnection networks, web data, etc. FSM is the task of finding all frequent subgraphs from a given database i.e. a single big graph or database of many graphs, whose support is greater than the given threshold value. Many databases consider small graphs for solving complex problems. The classification of graph depends upon the application requirement. A good mining architecture may prevent a lot of memory and time. This paper follows the Grami structure for the analysis of frequent subgraph mining and also introduces the 20% threshold policy for the enhancement of the directed pattern graphs. The constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) has been discussed and analyzed using the Grami approach. The proposed model is compared to Grami on twitter dataset based on the evaluation of time and memory consumed. The proposed algorithm shows an improvement of 3-4 % for both the parameters. The results show that the performance of Grami approach has been improved which shows a 6.6% reduction in time and 21% improvement in memory consumption using the proposed approach.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>2943</first_page>     <last_page>2949</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.C9106.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/C9106019320/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>An Intelligent System for Detecting Image Spam based on Exploration of Text Information Embedded into Images</title> </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Bharathidasan University, Trichy, India.</organization>    <person_name sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>      <given_name>Mallikka</given_name>      <surname>Rajalingam*</surname>    </person_name>    <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Dr. M.</given_name>       <surname>Balamurugan</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Bharathidasan University, Trichy, India.</organization>   </contributors>     <jats:abstract xml:lang='en'>         <jats:p>Spam mails act as a immense hazard to communication security as it leads to phishing or virus attacks that could harm the user accounts and the organizations by exposing confidential information.With these inferences, the present research attempted to accurately detect image spam e-mails which have always been a topic of great research in data security. Detection of image spam mails is divided into two separate components- character segmentation and character recognition. While the former segments individual characters, the latter overcomes the issue of blocked texts and not well surveyed. The final phase of the work is a complete image spam detection system with the two proposed works built to detect spam messages. Various techniques have been proposed to tackle this setback and the principle of this paper is to evaluate and review several algorithms, talk about benchmark statistics or data, show appraisal of performance followed by potential direction for future work.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>2403</first_page>     <last_page>2408</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.C9108.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/C9108019320/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>An Automation Perspective of Print Production Workflow System</title> </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>College of Computing Sciences &amp; Information Technology, Teerthanker Mahaveer University, Moradabad, India.</organization>    <person_name sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>      <given_name>Priyank</given_name>      <surname>Singhal*</surname>    </person_name>    <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Shakti</given_name>       <surname>Kundu</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>College of Computing Sciences &amp; Information Technology, Teerthanker Mahaveer University, Moradabad, India.</organization>     <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Anil</given_name>       <surname>Kumar</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Indian Institute of Remote Sensing, ISRO, Dehradun, India.</organization>   </contributors>     <jats:abstract xml:lang='en'>         <jats:p>The technology has always been embraced for making better processes.

The mechanical properties such as tensile strength, compressive strength, hardness and sliding wear of the alloy in as cast and heat treated condition were examined in order to achieve the maximum properties. Microstructural examination of the alloy in as cast and heat treated condition was carried out to observe the effect of aging. SEM study was also done to observe the worn surfaces and the mechanism of material removal. It is observed that there is a substantial improvement in the mechanical and tribological properties of the alloy due to heat treatment as compared to the as cast alloy. The microstructural study of the cast alloy shows primary dendrites of aluminium and intermetallic phases around the inter-dendrites regions. Due to the heat treatment, the identity of the dendritic structure is lost, because of uniform distribution of precipitates, wherein intermetallic phases were seen dispersed within the grains and the grain boundaries. Results show that the tensile strength of the heat treated alloy at 210oC aging temperature has increased by 155% as compared to as cast alloy. The compressive strength and hardness of the alloy at 210oC aging temperature shows improvement of 41% and 54% respectively as compared to as cast alloy.

There are a lot of cases of practical use of the corona discharge functions. An example is the creation of electrostatic precipitators for the purification of industrial gases from solid and liquid particles. Using the corona discharge method, for example, smoke is cleaned in the production of sulfuric acid, air in non-ferrous metal foundries and other harmful industries. Shape of the corona discharge made utilizing cone shaped and round and hollow terminals was examined. The most electrical characteristics of discharge of this type are decided. Corona discharges are characterized by weak currents within the extend of one microampere at voltages on the arrange of 10 kilovolts and adequately week gleam discharge. Electric fluctuations within the discharge current circuit within the extend 1 kHz-120 MHz are enlisted. To think about the oscillatory forms, there were used electric and attractive tests, signals from which were sent to the Tektronix TDS 2024B oscilloscope working within the frequency analyzer mode. The electrical tests were spoken to by metal poles 1-10 cm in length and 4-5 mm in diameter. As magnetic tests, there were used coils (diameter 2-4 mm, number of turns 70-140, wire thickness 0.1 mm) set in protective dielectric walled in areas. These tests were located at a separate of 0.5-1.0 m from the release. Possible waves in plasma are suggested to explain these oscillations.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>3662</first_page>     <last_page>3665</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.C9127.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/C9127019320/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>Performance Method for Innovative Activity on the Achieved Level of the Country’s Socioeconomic Development</title> </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>Scientific Research Institute – Federal Research Centre for Projects Evaluation and Consulting Services (SRI FRCEC), Moscow, Russia.</organization>    <person_name sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>      <given_name>Yuriy A.</given_name>      <surname>Shamsutdinov*</surname>    </person_name>    <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Pavel P.</given_name>       <surname>Bochkovskiy</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Scientific Research Institute – Federal Research Centre for Projects Evaluation and Consulting Services (SRI FRCEC), Moscow, Russia.</organization>     <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Valeriy V.</given_name>       <surname>Prokhorov</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Scientific Research Institute – Federal Research Centre for Projects Evaluation and Consulting Services (SRI FRCEC), Moscow, Russia.</organization>     <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Lyubov V.</given_name>       <surname>Prokhorova</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Scientific Research Institute – Federal Research Centre for Projects Evaluation and Consulting Services (SRI FRCEC), Moscow, Russia.</organization>   </contributors>     <jats:abstract xml:lang='en'>         <jats:p>The purpose of this study is to make an attempt to assess the innovation activity on the achieved result , expressed in indicators that determine the socioeconomic level of country development, as it is the purpose of innovation In the applied method of calculating the evaluation of the effectiveness of innovation (Data environment Analysis) these indicators were the results, while the indicators of innovation were considered as a “resource”. Rental indicators, Gini index and others , reflecting (directly or indirectly) the result of innovations was also taken into account. The results showed values that were less inconsistent with the estimates for other related indexes and indicators , while the evaluation with existing methods gave more inaccurate results. This suggests that the proposed method gives a more objective assessment of the innovation level in the country and more accurately determines the country ‘s place in the world ranking. The main source of the world economy development today is the innovation, an integrated assessment of which on a national scale can itself act as an indicator of the level of economic and — in a broader sense — the socio-economic level of the country development . From this point of view, an objective assessment of the innovation development level, as well as the development and proposal of methods for its evaluation are still relevant. Up-to-date assessment methods mainly assess the potential of countries to develop innovations, while their achieved level should be assessed, since, with significant differences in the development of countries , these potential opportunities can be realized to varying degrees.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>3678</first_page>     <last_page>3686</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.C9129.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/C9129019320/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>Prefabricated Construction Technology for Multistoreyed Building</title> </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>Assistant Professor, Department of Civil Engineering, N.

For fast growing population, it is essential to construct more residential units with lesser cost and lesser time. Reduction in cost of structure is made by several ways and one such way is to use prefabrication techniques. To reduce the overall cost and to greatly reduce the construction time of buildings, prefabricated units are adopted. In the present study, the G+3 conventional and prefabricated multistoreyed building is analyzed and designed. For both structures, the quantities and cost have been estimated and comparision is made for effective construction methodology. Also duration of project has been estimated in both cases and compared. The building is analyzed and designed in STAAD Pro software and project scheduling and duration is evaluated by MS PROJECT (MSP) software. By using Prefab Technology, reduction in cost can be achieved within less time. Construction cost of prefabricated structure is slightly more than conventional structure. But the time duration required for prefabricated construction is less as compared to conventional structure.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>1994</first_page>     <last_page>2000</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.D9058.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/D9058029420/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>Classical Vs.

Cause for occurrence of spike in the primary winding of a transformer is unequal resistance between two secondary circuit’s of the transformer and different characteristics of rectifier diode. Which leads to the magnetic saturation in the form of spikes in the primary current of a transformer Consequently over current protection switch off. So, Current Spike decrease is a significant factor to be considered while spot welding frameworks are concerned. This can be used in automobile industry and it is a major issue in spot welding system. The present control strategy is a piecewise straight control system that is enlivened from the DC-DC converter control calculations to enlist a novel current spike decrease technique in the MFDC spot welding applications. The traditional and insight controllers were utilized for spike decrease in essential current of welding transformer so as to make the opposition spot welding framework to work easily. Current control techniques by the above mentioned controllers are evaluated in terms total harmonic distortion (THD), Percentage of current spike reduction, percentage ripple in welding current, rise time and settling time. Matlab/SimulinkTM software is carried out for the analyzing the classical and intelligence controllers and results are tabulated.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>2583</first_page>     <last_page>2588</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.F3631.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/F3631048619/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>An India Towards Global Ranking Standards: A Move Towards Data Curation</title> </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>Department of Computer Science &amp; Engineering, Birla Institute of Technology Mesra, , Jaipur Campus, Jaipur, Rajasthan, India.</organization>    <person_name sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>      <given_name>Kashinath</given_name>      <surname>Chandelkar*</surname>    </person_name>    <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Dr. Piyush</given_name>       <surname>Gupta</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Department of Computer Science &amp; Engineering, Birla Institute of Technology Mesra, Jaipur Campus, Jaipur, Rajasthan, India.</organization>   </contributors>     <jats:abstract xml:lang='en'>         <jats:p>Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD) is not only a source of inspiration for sectors such as Research and Development, Services, Agriculture and Entrepreneurship.

Most promising tools for image searching are Google Images and Yahoo Image search. They are used for annotations based on textual of the images. In this, the images are annotated manually with the help of keywords and then the retrieval is carried by using various search methods based on text. Due to this method, the system performance is too low. Therefore, CBIR goal is to construct Image Ontology. The Ontology extracts the relevant images from the database by using low-level features like texture, shape and color. In multimedia technology, the challenging task is to retrieve the relevant images from an image database. For representation, organization and retrieving of images, the searching approaches based on semantic provide effective and efficient results by using image ontology. In this paper, protege software shows us how to create ontology and SPARQL query language provides semantic annotation for images. In addition to this, OntoViz and OntoGraph were used to generate Ontology in a graphical form for the relevant application.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>3363</first_page>     <last_page>3368</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.H7062.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/H7062068819/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>Residential Energy Conservation using Efficient Home Appliances</title> </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>Electrical Engg.

Therefore, methods of reducing the global energy demand are being extensively explored worldwide. In this paper, we have discussed ways of reducing energy consumption in Residential sector. We have taken eight major appliances being used in homes and compared them on the basis of annual energy consumed and cost saving by taking suitable assumptions like running hours, seasons of operation, etc. Finally, Case study of a modern house in Aligarh district of UP is studied for analysing the percentage consumption of each appliance being discussed. The results show that appliances like light bulbs, ceiling fans and refrigerators have the highest potential of energy as well as cost saving by improving their efficiency. Further, by switching all the appliances from conventional to the most efficient models resulted in energy and cost saving of about 37% in the house taken for case study.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>3457</first_page>     <last_page>3465</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.J9629.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/J96290881019/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>Authenticated Energy Efficient Clustering Algorithm for secure transmission in Wireless Sensor Networks</title> </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>Department of Computer Engineering, Government Polytechnic College, Perambalur, Tamilnadu, India</organization>    <person_name sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>      <given_name>V.</given_name>      <surname>Asanambigai*</surname>    </person_name>    <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>A.</given_name>       <surname>Ayyasamy</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Department of Computer Engineering, Government Polytechnic College, Nagercoil, Tamilnadu, India.</organization>   </contributors>     <jats:abstract xml:lang='en'>         <jats:p>Authenticated energy consumption is the main criteria for constructing the Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). Every sensor has the dissimilar processing, communication range, memory unit. Each sensor node has restricted energy and memory. All the WSN based transmission architecture has the problem of authentication. The transmission overload and energy utilization have complex structure to perform the quality of service in WSN routing in a secure way. In spite of providing efficient communication for WSN, clustering approach is used to transmit the data packet from beginning node to the end node. Data gathering helps to organize the network and minimize the network overhead during data communication. Effective cluster head selection method is used for enhanced energy efficiency. Authenticated Energy Efficient Clustering Algorithm (AEEC) is proposed for efficient authenticated energy consumption-based routing methodology for WSN. The effective communication is performed by generating the authentication code within the sensor nodes to construct the innovative secured transmission based framework. The simulation results proved that the proposed method is implemented to reduce the energy consumption, routing overhead, end to end delay and increased amount of throughput compared to the other techniques.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>111</first_page>     <last_page>116</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.J9911.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/J99110881019/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>Actual Interactions for Component-Based Software using Straight and Circuitous Links</title> </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>Computer Science and Engineering, Graphic Era Deemed to be University, Dehradun, India.</organization>    <person_name sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>      <given_name>Umesh Kumar</given_name>      <surname>Tiwari*</surname>    </person_name>    <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Santosh</given_name>       <surname>Kumar</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Computer Science and Engineering, Graphic Era Deemed to be University, Dehradun, India.</organization>   </contributors>     <jats:abstract xml:lang='en'>         <jats:p>Interaction and integration complexities of various pieces of codes play a vital role in the overall behavior of software.

On the basis of interactions among components we define an Interaction-graph. Interaction-graph contains ‘Links’ and ‘Components’. To assess the actual interactions we define inner and outer interactions of particular components. Links are further categorized as straight and circuitous links.

Internet offers new possibilities for networking and participative democracy but feminists are failing to challenge the use of the Internet for furthering more dangerous and discriminatory agendas, including Internet crime committed against women and the proliferation of pornography. Many youth are engaging socially through common social network like WhatsApp, Facebook, twitter, msn, my space and are actually addicted to these Internet social activities, making them vulnerable to Internet crimes. The increased dependency of individual / organisations on cyberspace has led to the increase in the cybercrimes. In India we find there is minimal proper training and education regarding such developments and the ignorance towards these advancements has paved way for cybercrimes. Even the authorities and officers who handle such cases have no proper training and the essential expertise for undertaking cybercrimes against women and girls in particular. India should consider adopting a coactive approach wherein technology and proper legislative framework combine to fight the cybercrime in the society. The threatening atmosphere created by such heinous cybercrimes against women and girls need radical change in technology, behaviour and legal affairs; facilitated by proper education and training. This study examines the problems and issues of cybercrime against women and girls in order to exhibit preventive strategies and means to fight back with the support of cohesive forces.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>609</first_page>     <last_page>612</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.K2408.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/K24080981119/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>Sentiment Analysis of Healthcare Quality</title> </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>Department of C.

Services are similar as the Doctor's reaction to the patients, instrument feature in hospital, area of expertise of Doctors, Compounder and Nurse. The patient expects good services from employees of hospital similar as from Doctor, ward boys, nurses, etc. These employees must take care of the patient’s health, give needful medicine to the patient; the environment of the Hospital must be clean and comfortable for a patient. This paper concentrates on the patient’s feedback about a hospital. We have taken patient’s feedbacks from online website, social websites like Twitter, blogs, and Government healthcare-related website. These feedbacks are the form of comments available on websites. Then we need to analyze the comments, classify these comments as positive, negative and neutral by making use of sentiment analysis technique. Finally, based on results, we can decide which facility is in lower in quality, and recognize hospital which is better for patient’s health improvement.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>3369</first_page>     <last_page>3376</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.L2532.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/L25321081219/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>Descriptive Analytics on Crime in India using Clustering Techniques</title> </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Visveswaraya Technological University, Bangalore, India.</organization>    <person_name sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>      <given_name>J Vimala</given_name>      <surname>Devi*</surname>    </person_name>    <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Dr Kavitha</given_name>       <surname>K S</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Visveswaraya Technological University, Bangalore, India.</organization>   </contributors>     <jats:abstract xml:lang='en'>         <jats:p>Understanding the perspectives of crime happenings by exploiting crime data helps early detection and prevention of crimes.

Agricultural equipment, agricultural infrastructure and production facilities are being constantly developed. Most photovoltaic (PV) solutions are used in agriculture. These applications are the best solution for remote farming when the PV solution is found by utilities that combine individual systems. A sun oriented fueled water pumping framework is comprised of two fundamental segments. These are PV boards and have a few huge structures pumps. A PV board's littlest component is the solar powered cell. Each solar based Cell has minimum of two ordered material like semiconductor layers which, when presented to light, produce direct flow (DC) power. The cabling in the board accumulates this DC Current.. It is then fed to a DC pump so that the sun pumps water at any time, or is placed on the batteries following the use of the pump. The principle motivation behind this article is to explain how the sunlight based controlled water pumping framework works and the distinctions with different wellsprings of vitality.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>2964</first_page>     <last_page>2967</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.C9201.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/C9201019320/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>Button Operated Electromagnetic Gear Shifting for Two Wheeler</title> </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>Asst.Professor Gr-II, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Aarupadai Veedu Institute of Technology, Vinayaka Mission Research Foundation</organization>    <person_name sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>      <given_name>S.</given_name>      <surname>Kalyanakumar*</surname>    </person_name>    <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>M.</given_name>       <surname>Saravanakumar</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Asst.Professor Gr-II, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Aarupadai Veedu Institute of Technology,Vinayaka Mission Research Foundation.</organization>     <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Abdul</given_name>       <surname>Nihal</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>UG Students.

What so ever might be the pace of the upraise of the automobile an individual is working. Be that as it may, one of the most significant frames works. Worry about in vehicles is the Gear moving framework for guaranteeing smooth and wanted ride on their bike. Motorcycle is generally utilized far and wide and especially. The arrangement of moving the cruiser's machine is usually manual. This paper develops the framework for moving the internal projected gear for the standard bike This framework employs low effort of the controllers to solve the right preference of changing pole here and by noticing the pace, and controlling cross-transmissions where necessary. When the gear shifting-up of an automatic transference is performed, the laden used by the laden apparatus is raised, or the laden is linked to the engine's circumvolution pole via the selector-coupling agent, thereby condensing the rotational speed of the engine's circumvolution pole. Here, two electromagnetic twine are connected to the gear cable of twain ends. Two switches are needed to turn on the electro-magnetic coil so that the arm or pole can be altered.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>2968</first_page>     <last_page>2970</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.C9202.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/C9202019320/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>Assessing the Causal Relationship of Service Quality and Corporate Image on Student Satisfaction and Loyalty among the Technical Universities Students</title> </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>Department of Quality Engineering, Universiti Kuala Lumpur (UniKL), Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia</organization>    <person_name sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>      <given_name>Sallaudin</given_name>      <surname>Hassan*</surname>    </person_name>    <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Jimisiah</given_name>       <surname>Jaafar</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Department of Student Development, Universiti Kuala Lumpur (UniKL), Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia</organization>     <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Khairul</given_name>       <surname>Firdaus</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Department of Student Development, Universiti Kuala Lumpur (UniKL), Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia</organization>     <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Mohamad Farid</given_name>       <surname>Shamsudin</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Department of Marketing, Universiti Kuala Lumpur (UniKL), School of Business (UBIS), Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.</organization>     <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Suhana</given_name>       <surname>Mohamed</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Department of Business and Management, Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM), Pasir Gudang, Johor, Malaysia</organization>   </contributors>     <jats:abstract xml:lang='en'>         <jats:p>Past studies in various areas indicated that customer loyalty is very critical.

The proposed EMD_WSVM model is determined to be dominant to the other methods in predicting the number of tourist arrivals.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>2451</first_page>     <last_page>2454</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.C9225.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/C9225019320/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>Magnetic Properties of Somaloy 700 (5P) Material Under Round Magnetic Flux Loci</title> </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>Instrumentation and Control Engineering Section, Universiti Kuala Lumpur, Malaysian Institute of Industrial Technology, 81750 Masai, Johor, Malaysia.</organization>    <person_name sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>      <given_name>Ashraf Rohanim</given_name>      <surname>Asari*</surname>    </person_name>    <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Youguang</given_name>       <surname>Guo</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>School of Electrical, Mechanical and Mechatronic Systems, University of Technology, Sydney (UTS) Broadway NSW 2007, Australia.</organization>     <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Jianguo</given_name>       <surname>Zhu</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>School of Electrical, Mechanical and Mechatronic Systems, University of Technology, Sydney (UTS) Broadway NSW 2007, Australia.</organization>   </contributors>     <jats:abstract xml:lang='en'>         <jats:p>Electrical machines has enabled human to do their chores with easier and more comfortable way. Most of the current electrical machines require the magnetic cores to operate at higher frequency to meet the demand of high–speed performance. The study of rotating core loss gives big significance to the rotating electrical machines since in real situation, the magnetic flux densities in the electrical machines are rotated during the operation. In this paper, magnetic properties of new material; SOMALOY 700 (5P) are studied by conducting 2-D core loss measurements at 50 Hz, 100 Hz, 500 Hz and 1000 Hz. Magnetic flux density is controlled to be in round shape in clockwise and anti-clockwise directions by using LabVIEW to resemble the actual core loss of rotating machines. B and corresponding H loci are plotted and these collected data are analysed by using Mathcad to obtain the core loss curves at different magnitude of magnetic field and frequencies. The findings show that the rotational core loss is increased with frequencies. At 1.8 T under 50 Hz of rotating magnetic fluxes, 8.9 Watt/ kg is recorded and keep increasing up to 2.4 T. The detail of core loss is important in providing information to the engineers for the motor design proposes.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>2479</first_page>     <last_page>2483</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.C9226.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/C9226019320/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>The Use of English among Supply Chain Workers in Malaysia</title> </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>Universiti Kuala Lumpur, Malaysian Institute of Marine Engineering Technology, Bandar Teknologi Maritim, Pantai Remis Road, 32100 Lumut Malaysia.</organization>    <person_name sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>      <given_name>M.

The objective of this paper is to study, analyse and propose viable solutions to improve manufacturer performance in terms of productivity and quality in the manufacturing sector by using various operation management tools. Hence, one SME company was chosen by utilizing the Value Stream Mapping (VSM) in DMAIC approach to measure their productivity. The aerosol production line was study, to see the gap measurement in productivity before and after applying a systematic method in operation management. Furthermore, along with various operation management tools such as Kaizen, Kanban system and 5S, a new layout (VSM) for the production line was proposed. Result shows that the proposed new layout could reduce the distance travelled by operator by 22.26 %, at the same time will increase the productivity and quality of product.

It is however imperative to also understand travelers’ needs in order to remain competitive in the market. In particular, it is crucial to clearly recognize the diversity in travel needs particularly the travel desires of Muslims travelers since they hold a different set of values and beliefs that guide their travel needs. Hence, this research attempts to understand Islamic travel needs among Muslim travelers and how such needs can impact the attractiveness of package tours in Malaysia. The travel needs of Muslim travelers i.e. travel motives, travel behavior and perceived travel barriers will be determined against the attractiveness of packaged tours. This paper proposes a conceptual model so that further analyses can be conducted and marketing strategies can be recommended to enhance the attractiveness of package tours developed by Travel agencies for Muslim travelers. By gaining a better understanding of Muslim traveler needs, tour operators in Klang Valley, Malaysia will be able to enhance their marketing strategies, increase the attractiveness and demand for their package tours and attract more Muslim travelers to travel with them.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>2714</first_page>     <last_page>2721</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.C9231.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/C9231019320/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>Tribological Exploration on Pigging System using Computational Simulation</title> </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>Universiti Kuala Lumpur, Malaysian Institute of Industrial Technology, Persiaran Sinaran Ilmu, Bandar Seri Alam, 81750 Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia.</organization>    <person_name sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>      <given_name>A.

Pipeline pigging enhances the flow rate and corrosion control in the pipeline. During operation, the PIG is subjected to frictions and wear that occur between the sealing disc and the pipeline wall. The objective of this study is to simulate the contact pressure between the PIG sealing disc and the inner pipeline during pigging process. Other than that, the study is conducted to calculate the wear volume on the PIG sealing disc as the distance of pigging operation increase. The simulation is performed using COMSOL Multiphysics 5.3. The analytical calculation implemented Archard’s law formula. The result showed the higher the normal load applied to the PIG sealing disc, the higher the contact pressure between the sealing disc and the pipeline. Next, when the PIG travel through a pipeline with normal load applied, the volume loss of PIG sealing disc is increasing. As a conclusion, when the PIG is travel through a pipeline during pigging, the PIG is subjected to various conditions such as friction and wears which can affect the pigging performance.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>2722</first_page>     <last_page>2725</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.C9232.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/C9232019320/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>Exploring Mediating Role of Corporate Image between Service Quality and Student Loyalty using PLS-SEM</title> </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>Department of Quality Engineering, Universiti Kuala Lumpur (UniKL), Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia</organization>    <person_name sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>      <given_name>Sallaudin</given_name>      <surname>Hassan*</surname>    </person_name>    <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Rahmat Roslan</given_name>       <surname>Buang</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Department of Quality Engineering, Universiti Kuala Lumpur (UniKL), Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia</organization>     <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Mohamad Ikbar</given_name>       <surname>Wahab</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Department of Quality Engineering, Universiti Kuala Lumpur (UniKL), Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia</organization>     <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Mohamad Farid</given_name>       <surname>Shamsudin</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Department of Marketing, Universiti Kuala Lumpur (UniKL), School of Business (UBIS), Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia</organization>     <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Muhamad Asyraf</given_name>       <surname>Hasim</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Department of Marketing, Universiti Kuala Lumpur (UniKL), School of Business (UBIS), Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia</organization>   </contributors>     <jats:abstract xml:lang='en'>         <jats:p>The demand on high skill graduate shows increasing trend in the context of Malaysia. Current supply of higher skill graduate is in adequate to support the industry. Thus, the government expected that, the number of student enrolment in higher Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) institutions to be increased. Recent studies highlighted that service quality and corporate image are two critical factors that influence student loyalty. However, the mediating effect of corporate image has given less attention in the previous research. Thus, the purpose of this research is to explore the mediating effect of corporate image on the relationship between the service quality and student loyalty. The scope of this study is final year student of higher TVET universities. 398 of completed questionnaires were analyzing using SPSS and Smart-PLS. The measurement model shows that all constructs are reliable. While the structural model result showed that there is a direct and significant effect of corporate image on the relationship between service quality and student loyalty. The mediating test indicates that there is a partial mediation of corporate image on the relationship between service quality and student satisfaction. Future research is suggested to explore in depth on other factors that could have mediate the relationship between service quality and student loyalty.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>2726</first_page>     <last_page>2730</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.C9233.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/C9233019320/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>Uncertainty Factors and Their Effects in Experimental Results of Composite Structures</title> </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>Universiti Kuala Lumpur, Malaysian Institute of Industrial Technology, Bandar Seri Alam, 81750 Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia.</organization>    <person_name sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>      <given_name>M.F.M.</given_name>      <surname>Alkbir*</surname>    </person_name>    <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Fatihhi</given_name>       <surname>Januddi</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Universiti Kuala Lumpur, Malaysian Institute of Industrial Technology, Bandar Seri Alam, 81750 Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia</organization>     <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Adnan</given_name>       <surname>Bakia</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Universiti Kuala Lumpur, Malaysian Institute of Industrial Technology, Bandar Seri Alam, 81750 Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia.</organization>     <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>M.

Heat exchanger unit generally used in chemical processes related to energy consumption. Actual purpose of heat exchanger is transferring heat source from hotter fluid to cooler fluid. The main control system challenge for heat exchanger is controlling the temperature according to the control demand (setpoint). This is due to some disturbance phenomena such as leakage, temperature-dependent flow and contact resistance. Therefore, the performance of various control techniques such as feedback PID and feedback-plus-feedforward PID controller are proposed to regulate the temperature of outlet fluid of a shell and tube heat exchanger. Then, system performance is evaluated upon excitation of a unit step response. Overall heat exchanger system is modeled using first order principle and simulation result of two types of controller is compared. From the simulation results, it is found that the combination of feedback and feedforward controller provides significant increase performance of the overall heat exchanger system.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>2736</first_page>     <last_page>2739</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.C9235.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/C9235019320/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>Design and Simulation of PID Controller for PH Neutralization Process</title> </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>Universiti Kuala Lumpur Malaysian Institute of Industrial Technology, Persiaran Sinaran Ilmu, 81750 Masai, Johor, Malaysia.</organization>    <person_name sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>      <given_name>Amyrah</given_name>      <surname>Fadzlullah*</surname>    </person_name>    <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>M Ismail</given_name>       <surname>Yusof</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Robust Industrial Control &amp; Autonomous System Research Group, Universiti Kuala Lumpur Malaysian Institute of Industrial Technology, Persiaran Sinaran Ilmu, 81750 Masai, Johor, Malaysia.</organization>     <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Azavitra</given_name>       <surname>Zainal</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Lecturer, Instrumentation And Control Engineering Section, Universiti Kuala Lumpur, Malaysian Institute Of Industrial Technology</organization>     <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Aisyhah</given_name>       <surname>Azhar</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Universiti of Kuala lumpur, British Malaysian Institute</organization>     <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Ainul Hakimah</given_name>       <surname>Karim</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Instrumentation And Control Engineering Section, Universiti Kuala Lumpur, Malaysian Institute of Industrial Technology</organization>     <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Mohd</given_name>       <surname>Aliff</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Instrumentation And Control Engineering Section, Universiti Kuala Lumpur, Malaysian Institute of Industrial Technology</organization>     <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Sairul Izwan</given_name>       <surname>Safie</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Universiti Kuala Lumpur, Malaysian Institute of Industrial Technology</organization>   </contributors>     <jats:abstract xml:lang='en'>         <jats:p>PH control system plays an important role in a wide range of industrial applications particularly in wastewater treatment management. Untreated wastewater generally contains high level of organic materials, numerous pathogenic microorganisms which raised concern in environmental and health hazards. The high non-linearity and time varying in pH neutralization process and the uncertainty of the plant dynamics are the key challenges of the pH control systems. There are many sophisticated PID tuning method, however conventional tuning procedure remains effectives in industries. The overall control scheme involves controls of flow rates of acid and base solutions. Ziegler Nichols method tuning has been developed for first order and second order system, in which, also applicable for pH neutralization control model. This paper elaborates the performance of transient response for pH neutralization process by using empirical techniques through the simulation software along with Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) for controlling purpose. A result of comparison between Ziegler-Nichols versus First Order plus Time Delay (FOPTD) of pH control system design for PID controller is seeing in a graph.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>2740</first_page>     <last_page>2743</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.C9236.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/C9236019320/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>Crashworthiness Characteristics and Failure Mode of Composite Tubes</title> </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>Universiti Kuala Lumpur, Malaysian Institute of Industrial Technology, Bandar Seri Alam, 81750 Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia.</organization>    <person_name sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>      <given_name>M.F.M.</given_name>      <surname>Alkbir*</surname>    </person_name>    <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Fatihhi</given_name>       <surname>Januddi</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Universiti Kuala Lumpur, Malaysian Institute of Industrial Technology, Bandar Seri Alam, 81750 Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia.</organization>     <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>S.

Most of the previous studies used a standard size of 256 x 256 to provide the image as the image pre-processing material. The result of different image size dimension are shows in this research to proven that image resizing is important. Reducing image dimension size can help to improve system performance. At the same time, it is importance to keep the image quality. This study shows that by reducing image dimension, it can improve the computer or system performance more than 95%. Image quality can be measured to get helpful information for the study after resizing the image into the same standard size. In this study, measurement of contrast levels was taken to compare the quality differences between image labs and field images. It turns out that the quality of lab image produces high-quality images with good brightness over image field image.The best quality image is the images that have low contrast. Therefore in this research paper we used CLAHE method to enhance the contrast and brightness for field image.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>3428</first_page>     <last_page>3431</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.C9240.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/C9240919320/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>Adsorption of Copper (Ii) Ion by Leucaena Leucocephala Pods</title> </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>Faculty of Chemical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM), Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia.</organization>    <person_name sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>      <given_name>Noor Harliza Abd</given_name>      <surname>Razak*</surname>    </person_name>    <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Nur Amalia</given_name>       <surname>Zulkepli</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Faculty of Chemical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM), Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia.</organization>     <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Juferi</given_name>       <surname>Idris</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Faculty of Chemical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) Cawangan Sarawak, Kota Samarahan, Sarawak, Malaysia.</organization>   </contributors>     <jats:abstract xml:lang='en'>         <jats:p>In this work, the efficiency of Leucaena leucocephala pods, an agricultural waste, to remove copper (Cu) ions in aqueous solution by adsorption.

Natural fibre reinforced HDPE with three different types at different ratios for each composite were prepared in laboratory. Dynatup 9250HV was used to test impact strength of the composite. The impact strength of all composite boards was determined based on the Energy (J) value. Both the density and types of natural fibre have significantly affected the impact strength. Bamboo fibre gave the best impact properties compared to coconut coir and kenaf. There is only slightly difference between impact strength value for bamboo and kenaf which is in the range of 2.76MPa to 3.82MPa. Ratios at fourty (40) gave higher density value and results in better impact strength. In general, there is significantly difference between the ratios among the fibres.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>2971</first_page>     <last_page>2976</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.C9204.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/C9204019320/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>Fill Time Analysis of 8 Cavities Parison Mould using Taguchi Method</title> </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA, Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia.</organization>    <person_name sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>      <given_name>Najiy Rizal</given_name>      <surname>Suriani Rizal</surname>    </person_name>    <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Aidah</given_name>       <surname>Jumahat*</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA, Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia.</organization>     <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Nor Hafiez</given_name>       <surname>Mohamad Nor</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA, Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia.</organization>   </contributors>     <jats:abstract xml:lang='en'>         <jats:p>In the plastic injection molding process, the optimization of the process parameters is a complex task.

In the Taguchi method, the performance parameter is assumed to be the optimal parameter for injection molding process. An L16 (43) orthogonal array is considered as an experimental plan for the design parameters as suggested in Minitab version. The objective of this study is to propose an approach for efficiently optimizing injection molding parameter, i.e. fill time, with three different outputs, i.e. melting temperature, runner size and mold temperature. The illustrative application and comparison of results show that the proposed methodology outperforms the existing methods and can help injection molding process to efficiently and effectively identify optimal fill time process parameter. The result indicates the best performance for the highest contribution for each respond. This is due to the interaction of factors and it also gives the percentage contribution with 95% confidence level. The analysis using the Taguchi method showed the optimized fill time.

Thus, this research is aimed to determine the impact properties of hybrid FRP composite laminate. The impact tests were carried out on three types of FRP composite laminates, i.e. Carbon, Glass and Hybrid, in order to determine the impact properties of the materials. The composite laminates were prepared using hot pressing method. It was found that the hybrid FRP composite laminate exhibited better impact properties with 13% higher specific energy absorption when compared to the neat carbon FRP composite laminate. The impact test on hybrid FRP composite laminate recorded higher peak force, deflection at peak force and energy absorbed values of 109%, 71% and 25% respectively, when compared to the neat CFRP composite laminate.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>2763</first_page>     <last_page>2766</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.C9206.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/C9206019320/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>Simulation and Design of Neutral Point Type Buck Converter</title> </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA, 40450, Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia.</organization>    <person_name sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>      <given_name>Mohamad Fauzi</given_name>      <surname>Omar*</surname>    </person_name>    <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Harizan Che Mat</given_name>       <surname>Haris</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA, 40450, Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia.</organization>   </contributors>     <jats:abstract xml:lang='en'>         <jats:p>This paper presents the simulation and design of Neutral Point Type (NPT) converters that have been used to increase power factor near one (1) which is unity.

Growth development and advancement of heavy equipment in construction work further emphasize the necessity used of new technologies for noise reduction. The best technique of control or reducing of noise is by using the materials that can absorb the noise by materials itself. Potential materials from agricultural waste as sound absorber were identified. There are two main objectives in this study; First is to produce acoustic absorber by using natural materials. Second is to identify their sound absorption coefficients. The samples were fabricated using the raw materials from banana stem, grass, palm oil leaves and lemongrass mixed with binding agents of polyurethane and hardener to the ratio of 1:4. The diameters of the samples consist of 28mm and 100mm and the thickness is 10mm. The samples sound absorption coefficients were measured according to standards ASTM E1050-98 / ISO 105342-2 (Impedance tube method). Sound absorption coefficient of the materials depends on frequencies choose. The frequencies values used in this study were in the range from 500Hz to 4500Hz. Material made from grass have a higher average sound absorption coefficient value which is 0.553. All tested samples also can be categories under class D type of materials based on sound absorption coefficient value.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>2773</first_page>     <last_page>2777</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.C9208.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/C9208019320/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>Damage Assessment using Acoustic Emission on Concrete Beam</title> </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>Faculty of Civil Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA, 40450 Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia,</organization>    <person_name sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>      <given_name>Sakhiah Abdul</given_name>      <surname>Kudus*</surname>    </person_name>    <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Adiza</given_name>       <surname>Jamadin</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Faculty of Civil Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA, 40450 Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia</organization>     <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Norliyati Mohd</given_name>       <surname>Amin</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Faculty of Civil Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA, 40450 Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia</organization>     <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Anizahyati</given_name>       <surname>Alisibramulisi</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Institute for Infrastructure Engineering and Sustainable (IIESM), UiTM, Shah Alam, Malaysia</organization>     <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Nurul Huda</given_name>       <surname>Suliman</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Faculty of Civil Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA, 40450 Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia</organization>   </contributors>     <jats:abstract xml:lang='en'>         <jats:p>The selection of reliable technique for damage assessment is important in civil engineering structure.

This paper investigates the dynamic characteristics of a healthy and unhealthy condition of a commercially used helical gear using the Frequency Domain Decomposition (FDD) identification algorithm in Operational Modal Analysis (OMA). For the unhealthy condition, a refined range of percentage of defects are introduced to the helical gear starting from one (1) tooth being defected (1/60 teeth) to six (6) teeth being defected (6/60 teeth). The specimen is tested under a free-free boundary condition for its simplicity and direct investigation purpose. Comparison of the results of these varying conditions of the structure will be shown to justify the validity of the method used. Acceptable modal data are obtained by considering and accentuating on the technical aspects in processing the experimental data which are critical aspects to be addressed. The natural frequencies and mode shapes are obtained through automatic and manual peak-picking process from Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) plot using Frequency Domain Decomposition (FDD) technique and the results are validated using the established Modal Assurance Criterion (MAC) indicator. The results indicate that OMA using FDD algorithm is a good method in identifying the dynamic characteristics and hence, is effective in detection of defects in this rotating element.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>2778</first_page>     <last_page>2783</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.C9210.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/C9210019320/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>Effect of Chitosan-Starch Enriched with Turmeric Essential Oil Coating on Physical Quality of Strawberry</title> </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>Faculty of Chemical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA, Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia.</organization>    <person_name sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>      <given_name>Noorsuhana Mohd</given_name>      <surname>Yusof</surname>    </person_name>    <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Junaidah</given_name>       <surname>Jai*</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Faculty of Chemical Engineering, University Teknologi MARA, Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia.</organization>     <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Fazlena</given_name>       <surname>Hamzah</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Faculty of Chemical Engineering, University Teknologi MARA, Shah Alam, Malaysia.</organization>   </contributors>     <jats:abstract xml:lang='en'>         <jats:p>The objective of this paper was to formulate chitosan-starch edible coatings incorporate with turmeric essential oil and plasticized with glycerol using the dip coating technique. The effect of starch on surface tension and turmeric essential oil amounts on firmness and weight loss of the strawberries were studied. The adhesion properties of coatings were greatly influence by starch but not by turmeric essential oil hence 2.0% (w/v) of starch will be used in this study. The findings showed that chitosan-starch coatings enhanced with turmeric essential oil were effective on preserving strawberries. It was found that the weight loss of coated strawberries was significantly lower as compared to the uncoated samples. Based on the results, chitosan-starch edible coating enriched with 150 ppm of turmeric essential oil showed potential coating for extending shelf life during the storage of strawberries.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>2982</first_page>     <last_page>2986</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.C9211.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/C9211019320/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>Physicochemical Properties of Enzymatically Synthesised Medium-Chain Triacylglycerols-based Enhancer Cream</title> </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>Centre of Foundation Studies, Universiti Teknologi MARA Cawangan Selangor, Kampus Dengkil, Selangor, Malaysia.</organization>    <person_name sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>      <given_name>Salizatul Ilyana</given_name>      <surname>Ibrahim*</surname>    </person_name>    <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Juan</given_name>       <surname>Matmin</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Science, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, 81310 Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia.</organization>     <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Abu Bakar Abdul</given_name>       <surname>Majeed</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Faculty of Pharmacy, Universiti Teknologi MARA Cawangan Selangor, Kampus Puncak Alam, Selangor, Malaysia.</organization>   </contributors>     <jats:abstract xml:lang='en'>         <jats:p>Structured lipids (SLs) containing medium-chain triacylglycerols (MCTs) were produced by lipase catalysed acidolysis of both octanoic acid and the virgin coconut oil (VCO). The production of SLs, namely structured virgin coconut oil (SVCO), was previously optimised using the central composite design (CCD) based on the percentage of octanoic acid incorporated in the reaction products. The fatty acids and triacylglycerols composition and their corresponding rheological properties of the formulated SVCO incorporated α-tocopherol cream were also determined. The parameters that were suggested for the highest incorporation of octanoic acid (68.07%) are octanoic acid to VCO ratio of 1.70 (w/w); an enzyme load of 22.60%; at 63.4°C; a water content of 3.53%; and at 96 h. The amount of octanoic acid (carbon-8), the medium-chain fatty acids present in the structured lipid after enzymatic esterification was increased to 60.1% as compared to the natural VCO with only contains 5.45%. Based on the calculated equivalent carbon number (ECN), the most probable MCTs found in the SVCO were CpCpCp, CpCCp, and CpLaCp. Based on the rheological analysis, the SVCO creams were less viscoelastic as compared to the VCO. It shows that the decrease of the saturated fatty acids composition (carbon-12, 14, and 16) in the SVCO creams had significantly decreased the elasticity of the cream.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>2784</first_page>     <last_page>2789</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.C9212.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/C9212019320/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>Development of Monitoring System using the Internet of Things for Industrial Revolution 4.0</title> </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM), Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia.</organization>    <person_name sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>      <given_name>Siti Aisyah Binti</given_name>      <surname>Jaafar*</surname>    </person_name>    <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Sukarnur Che</given_name>       <surname>Abdullah</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM), Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia.</organization>   </contributors>     <jats:abstract xml:lang='en'>         <jats:p>The fourth industrial revolution represents smarter systems, faster and more optimized system of artificial intelligence, which involves control systems and sensors networks. In this paper, the concept of the Internet of Things (IoT) was applied preliminarily to create the connection between machine and the user, using a sensor, a processor such as Raspberry Pi, and IoT platform application such as Blynk in the smartphone. The simple IR 4.0 prototype system and IoT apps were developed in order to create a connection between sensors and user through the internet consisting of a temperature and humidity sensor, which is DHT11 and a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B. The smartphone application would be developed through the Blynk application for this simple prototype system. The graphical user interface GUI was built within the Blynk app and link it to the sensor which is already connected to the Raspberry Pi. The analysis that was done upon the system is by varying the stimuli to the sensors, which is a hairdryer with three levels of heat and observe the relative change of the reading of temperature and percentage of humidity on the apps. Therefore, the preliminary result shows an increase in temperature as the heat level increases. On the other hand, the percentage of humidity becomes lower as the temperature goes higher. Based on the results and the analysis, it had shown that the IR 4.0 prototype system of IoT monitoring can connect between the sensor and the smartphone application with real-time monitoring through the internet.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>2790</first_page>     <last_page>2794</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.C9213.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/C9213019320/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>Characterization of Mussel Inspired Surface Modified and Metal Chelated Polymer Membrane</title> </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>Faculty of Chemical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA, Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia.</organization>    <person_name sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>      <given_name>Azzah Nazihah binti Che Abdul</given_name>      <surname>Rahim*</surname>    </person_name>    <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Muhammad Rifqi Hanif bin</given_name>       <surname>Hamzah</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Faculty of Chemical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA, Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia.</organization>   </contributors>     <jats:abstract xml:lang='en'>         <jats:p>Modification of a membrane surface is critical to help further functional protein binding on the membrane.

The optimum process parameter was then obtained by using signal to noise ratio and analyzed further on the significant level by using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). The developed response has been found well fitted and can be effectively used for tensile shear strength prediction. The optimum parameters achieved were electrode force (2.3 kN), welding time (10 cycles) and welding current (8 kA).

In vitro uniaxial tensile test was performed to compute the stress-stretch response of the materials using ASTM D412 standard. The determination of material constants for the materials via numerical approach can be done by comparing with two hyper elastic constitutive models (Ogden and Neo-Hookean). The results show that Ogden’s exponent and coefficient for the subject estimated to be (μ = 0.434 MPa, α = 1.299) for Sample 1, (μ = 0.428 MPa, α = 1.424) for Sample 2, (μ = 0.463 MPa, α = 1.256) for Sample 3 and (μ = 0.633 MPa, α = 1.001) for Sample 4 respectively. Meanwhile, value of material constants for Neo-Hookeen were estimated to be (C1 = 0.00814 MPa), (C2 = 0.0121 MPa), (C3 = 0.00597 MPa) and (C4 = 0.00739 MPa) for Sample 1, Sample 2, Sample 3 and Sample 4 respectively.

Although it is possible to build large monolithic structures with composite materials, there are still several reasons for the structure to fail. One of the main reasons that contribute to this failure is the connection performance due to its function in carrying load across the structure. Thus having the right fundamental data for connection design purposes according to the specific and technological upgraded materials is very important. One of the basic methodologies in gaining the design data is through experimental double shear test which can be verified by European Yield Model (EYM) theory. Therefore, the objective of this research is to determine the load carrying capacity of double shear strength behaviour connections made of Kempas timber species as the main member and dowelled by the GFRP or the Kempas rod. The specimens were tested under the shear load with 2mm/min rate and tested until failure. From the experiment, it was found that the average ultimate shear strength of member dowelled with GFRP rod is 21.36% higher compared to one doweled with Kempas rod. According to mode of failure between two types of bolt, GFRP dowelled performs well (Mode I&amp; IV) rather than Kempas dowelled (Mode IV).</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>2820</first_page>     <last_page>2824</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.C9220.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/C9220019320/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article> <!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>Performance of Withdrawal Capacity for Mengkulang Glulam Perpendicular to the Glue Line for 14mm and 20mm Bolt Diameter</title> </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>Geo-hazards in structures and Infra-environment, Faculty of Engineering &amp; Built Environment, SEGi University, Petaling Jaya, Selangor, Malaysia</organization>    <person_name sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>      <given_name>Nor Jihan binti Abd</given_name>      <surname>Malek*</surname>    </person_name>    <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Lee Sheng</given_name>       <surname>Hui</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Geo-hazards in structures and Infra-environment, Faculty of Engineering &amp; Built Environment, SEGi University, Petaling Jaya, Selangor, Malaysia.</organization>     <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Rohana</given_name>       <surname>Hassan</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Engineered Wood Product (EWPro), Faculty of Civil Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA, Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia.</organization>   </contributors>     <jats:abstract xml:lang='en'>         <jats:p>Withdrawal capacity is defined as the amount of resistance to withdrawal force in a plane normal to the surface panel. It is caused by density and internal bonding of the panel. Withdrawal capacity is one of the factors that affect the load carrying capacity of the timber connection apart from embedment strength and fastener yield moment. The European Yield Model (EYM) theory is used to predict the load capacity of the timber connection under lateral load. The sample panel is made of Glued Laminated Timber (Glulam) using Mengkulang timber species. Although Mengkulang Glulam has a good weight to strength ratio as compared to typical concrete material but it is still not widely used in Malaysia. This is mainly due to a very limited exposure on the Mengkulang Glulam usage. Withdrawal capacity is determined according to the ASTM D1761-12 using one-hole test method. Also, the ASTM D1761-12, EC5:2008 is used to determine the withdrawal capacity output. In this experiment a mechanical fastener, bolt; 14mm and 20mm were used to fix the sample panels onto the test jig. The bolt diameter influenced the withdrawal capacity. It was observed that the withdrawal capacity of 20mm bolt diameter was better than the 14mm diameter with an increment of 48.6%.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>2825</first_page>     <last_page>2829</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.C9221.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/C9221019320/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article><!-- ============== --> <journal_article publication_type='full_text'>   <titles>     <title>Quasi-Static Indentation Response of Galvanized Iron Toughened Glass Fiber/Epoxy Laminates</title>   </titles>   <contributors>      <organization sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM), 40450 Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia.</organization>    <person_name sequence='first' contributor_role='author'>      <given_name>Aidah</given_name>      <surname>Jumahat*</surname>    </person_name>    <person_name sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>       <given_name>Mohamad Nasron Mubin</given_name>       <surname>Mohamad Nasir</surname>     </person_name>     <organization sequence='additional' contributor_role='author'>Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM), 40450 Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia.</organization>   </contributors>    <jats:abstract xml:lang='en'>         <jats:p>This paper is aimed to study the quasi-static indentation response of fiber metal laminates (FMLs) that are made of various arrangement of galvanized iron (GI) alloy thin sheet, glass fibre and epoxy polymer. Unidirectional and woven types of glass fiber/epoxy pre-impregnated laminates and three different thickness of GI thin sheet, i.e. 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 mm, were used to produce FML systems using combination of hand layup and hot press methods. The FML systems were coded as UGFRP, UGFML 1/2-2, UGFML 2/3-1, UGFML 4/5-0.5, WGFRP, WGFML 1/2-2, WGFML 2/3-1, WGFML 4/5-0.5 according to their types of glass fibers, thickness of GI and stacking sequence. Quasi-static indentation (QSI) tests were performed according to ASTM D6264 using hemispherical crosshead at 5 mm/min speed rate. It was found that both unidirectional and woven systems of FML 1/2-2 exhibited the highest energy absorption capacity, with enhancement of 28 times and 11 times more than UGFRP and WGFRP composite, respectively. At maximum compression, FML 2/3-1 displayed the highest ultimate load, while FML 1/2-2 displayed the highest displacement for both fiber systems. Damage area inspection revealed severe matrix crack, fiber fracture and delamination upon penetration and perforation.</jats:p>     </jats:abstract>  <publication_date media_type='online'>     <month>01</month>     <day>30</day>     <year>2020</year>   </publication_date>   <pages>     <first_page>2830</first_page>     <last_page>2834</last_page>   </pages>   <crossmark>     <crossmark_version>CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0</crossmark_version>     <crossmark_policy>10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy</crossmark_policy>     <crossmark_domains>       <crossmark_domain>          <domain>www.ijitee.org</domain>       </crossmark_domain>     </crossmark_domains>     <crossmark_domain_exclusive>true</crossmark_domain_exclusive>   </crossmark>   <doi_data>     <doi>10.35940/ijitee.C9222.019320</doi>     <resource>https://www.ijitee.org/portfolio-item/C9222019320/</resource>   </doi_data> </journal_article>
