    Fracture is the separation of an object into two or more pieces caused by crack growth under the action of applied stress. There are many different methods for fracture evaluation has been made but still lacks information on properties of Aluminium 6026-T9. Aluminium 6026 is non-toxic since it does not contain Tin (Sn) and features a great corrosion resistance. This study focuses on the mechanical properties and fracture toughness of Aluminium 6026-T9. The material is cut and shaped into dog-bone specimens by referring the ASTM E8 and was eventually undergoing a tensile test to evaluate the mechanical properties. A linear elastic analysis of three different crack characteristics which are single edge crack, double edge crack and center crack were performed in Mode I analysis to evaluate its fracture toughness. The stress intensity factor (SIF) value near the crack tip obtained from the simulation process were then compared with analytical value and had been discussed. The percentage of error found that the numerical and analytical values are closed to each other.

    Indoor positioning system has been an essential work to substitute the Global Positioning System (GPS). GPS utilizing Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) cannot provide an accurate positioning in the indoor due to the multipath effect and shadow fading. Fingerprinting method with Wi-Fi technology is a promising system to solve this issue. However, there are several problems with the fingerprinting method. The fingerprinting database collected has different sample sizes where the previous researcher does not indicate any standard for the sample size to be used. In this paper, the effect of the sample sizes in fingerprinting database for Wi-Fi technology has been discussed deeply. The statistical analyzation for different sample sizes has been analyzed. Furthermore, two methods which are K- Nearest Neighbor (KNN) and Deep Neural Network (DNN) are being used to examine the effect of the sample sizes in term of accuracy and distance error. The discussion in this paper will contribute to the better sample size selection depending on the method taken by the user. The result shows that sample sizes are an important metrics in developing the indoor positioning system as it effects the result of the location estimation.

    The wireless data collection for instance the Received Signal Strength (RSS) of the Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi) remained unfavourable in the Indoor Positioning System utilizing the signal fingerprinting approach. This is because the enormous sampling time and routines works making it tedious human labour. To alleviate this issue, we propose to use a robot for wireless data collection. The robot, named 'ICSiBOT' is a service robot with multiple purpose such as assisting human in daily lives, guest or hospitality robot and man others. This paper mainly describes the ICSiBOT robot face with speech recognition technology and the integration of the robot face to the motion controller. The experimental was conducted to see the correlation between the synthesized instructions from the speech in terms of distance need to be travelled i.e., the location for wireless signal collection and translate them into actual distance travelled. The results showed that the robot is able to travel to the specific distance as instructed to the robot face.

    The mobile robot navigation is the next huge topic after positioning utilizing fingerprinting-based Wireless Positioning System (WPS). Many of recent works does not discuss this topic yet since many open problems in positioning topic are not yet solved, for instance the issues on multi-devices heterogeneity, instability of WiFi signals, granularity problems in grid-based indoor environment and many others. However, we anticipate that both positioning and navigation works must run in parallel so that the succession are guaranteed. This paper describes the analysis of spatio-temporal data of the signal obtained from the WiFi Access Point. Initial results suggest that the difference between transmitter heights have an effect on the spatio-temporal data while the handover of maximum signal strengths is inherent when three WiFi APs are used.

    The problem of the blind spot zone (BSZ) for motorcycles is common, as it causes many accidents that occur between motorcycles and cars, or motorcycles with other vehicles. The problem of BSZ is occurring for many reasons, such as if the motorcyclist wants to change the lane or manoeuvre or turn without realizing the presence of other vehicle which may cause a terrible collision and leads to casualties, either because of darkness, the full dependence on side mirrors that give a limited scope of vision, or due to a malfunction in the front lights of the car that prevented the motorcyclists from recognizing it. However there were limited research on identifation of BSZ for motorcycle, even though most vehicle accidents in Malaysia involved motorcycles. This paper discusses the initial works on the identification of BSZ for motorcyles. Three types of motorcycles were used to determine the BSZ using grid-based technique. From the data collected, the BSZ was identified for the motorcycles.

    Waterjet Technology has been used vastly in our world nowadays due to its advantages and it can be implemented in many industrial sectors or even in the medical sector and food industry sector. Nozzle is a component that has been utilized in waterjet which is employed in a wide range of engineering applications to control the rate of flow, velocity, and the jet pressure of the water. This paper discusses the CFD analysis on a pure waterjet nozzle to obtain the output of the water that jets out from three different diameters of nozzle and select the effective nozzle diameter to be used for the fruit peeling and cutting process. The pressure used for the analysis are 200MPa, 300MPa and 400MPa, which was analysed for three different nozzle diameter 0.76mm, 1.02mm and 1.27mm. From CFD analysis, it is established that as the pressure loss of the water jet increases, the outlet velocity of the jet increases. Furthermore, for fruit peeling and cutting process the impact angle of the nozzle should be prioritised as the peeling of the fruit should be smooth and even before cutting the fruit. Thus, the most suitable parameters were found to be 400MPa and 1.02mm of pressure and nozzle diameter respectively. This will allow for the intended fruit cutting process with a stand-off distance that can be ranged from 1mm to 9mm.

    Vision aided pick and place cartesian robot is a combination of machine vision system and robotic system. They communicate with each other simultaneously to perform object sorting. In this project, machine vision algorithm for object sorting to solve the problem in failure sorting due to imperfection of images edges and different types of colours is proposed. The image is acquired by a camera and followed by image calibration. Pre-processing of image is performed through these methods, which are HSI colour space transformation, Gaussian filter for image filtering, Otsu's method for image binarization, and Canny edge detection. LabVIEW edge-based geometric matching is selected for template matching. After the vision application analysed the image, electrical signal will send to robotic arm for object sorting if the acquired image is matched with template image. The proposed machine vision algorithm has yielded an accurate template matching score from 800 to 1000 under different disturbances and conditions. This machine vision algorithm provides more customizable parameters for each methods yet improves the accuracy of template matching.

    Global navigation satellite system (GNNS) is known for its capability to detect the whereabouts of any desired target such as vehicles and places. However, there is some disadvantage of these technologies as it can only get a precise location outside of the building because as the signal goes to indoor building, the signal becomes weaker due to attenuation. The Wi-Fi systems are the best alternative to GNNS in an indoor environment since the architecture is massively deployed in many recent buildings. However, Wi-Fi also has its disadvantage where its signal is non-linear due to various factors such as multipath and signal blockage indoors thus limiting the system accuracy. In this paper, a deep learning approach with standalone Wi-Fi technologies will be used to have a precise indoor positioning by using the fingerprinting method. The overall result shows that the average distance error between actual and estimated location is 20-cm and the highest error is 62-cm in an experimental area of 180-cm and 120-cm in x and y axis. This shows that deep learning is a possible method to have accurate and precise indoor positioning.

    Wireless Positioning System (WPS) is an emerging field rises with the aim to minimize the development and algorithm cost as well as applicable in many applications. The methods are rather straightforward compared to the use of conventional on-board sensing elements that often require fusion of several sensors as well as complex algorithms. Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi) is the choice of elements in WPS due to wide availability as well as use of existing infrastructure. One interesting factor to consider in obtaining higher positioning accuracy is to assess the Wi-Fi height level. Many previous studies proposed optimization of the Wi-Fi antenna heights, but our direction is towards experimental works to observe if the antenna heights does matter or is it a totally insignificant parameter. Three different analyses were conducted on the data, which are statistical, two-layer average and quotient calculations. The results are validated for our experiments heights from 0.5 to 2.0 meter.
