PublicationA simple sensor network designed as anti-theft alarm system for copper cables( 2021-05-03)
;Zainol M.Z. ;Ahmad M.F.At present, the copper resources supply is very demanding, with society develops quickly. The increment of copper cable theft is due to the interest of its characteristic of low transmission voltage, dispersed layout, and high Cu in the material composition. The public utilities such as telecommunication providers faced plenty of troubles and dangers as they are the primary target. As a result of cable theft, the consumers cannot use the telephony system or internet services at their premises. These affect the communication between families, clients, and business purposes, including for emergency cases. Therefore, to prevent cable theft widespread, this work creates a device that is capable of alarming the responsible party when the copper at a specified location has been cut-off or tempered by thieves. A prototype has been developed for this work. Upon detection of a cable cut occurrence, this system will automatically activate the alarm and provide a display to indicate the specific location of where the cable was cut off. The system is controlled by an MCU unit (PIC16F877A). This work is using cable feeders in which the arrangement of the resistor in parallel determines the distance of the cable is terminated with the aid of the voltage divider concept. -
PublicationLife cycle assessment (Lca) of particleboard: Investigation of the environmental parameters( 2021-07-01)
;Mohd Azman M.A.H. ;Ahmad Sobri S. ;Ahmad M.N. ;Wan Ismail W.O.A.S. ;Hambali K.A. ;Hairi M.H. ;Hermawan A. ;Mohamed M. ;Teo P.T. ;Taharin M.R.Noor N.A.M.Particleboard is not entirely a wood replacement but a particular material with its properties, making it more effective at different times than heavy or solid wood. The world’s biggest concern is environmental problems with formaldehyde as a particulate board binder that can lead to human carcinogenic agents. A cradle-to-gate life cycle assessment (LCA) of particleboard production was performed using openLCA software. The impact assessment was carried out according to the software’s features. This preliminary investigation aims to analyze the chemical composition of particleboard and identify its environmental impact. The Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) system was used to track the functional group of aliphatic hydrocarbons, inorganic phosphates, and main aliphatic alcohols found in particleboards made in Malaysia. Based on the FTIR results, aliphatic groups were found in numerous aggravates that the spectroscopic infrared was likely to experience. The most important vibrational modes were C–H, at approximately 3000 cm−1, and –CH deformations around 1460 cm−1 and 1380 cm−1 . Eight effect groups demonstrated that 100% of the input and all analyses produced the same relative outcome. The life cycle of a product is determined by pollution of the air, water, and soil. Thus, particleboard has a minimal impact on the environment, except for global warming. -
PublicationFailure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) of furniture production: A case study in Kelantan state, Malaysia( 2021-05-03)
;Ahmad M.F. ;Sobri S.A. ;Abdullah N.A.N. ;Kamarudin N.M.F.N. ;Mohamed M. ;Hermawan A. ;Boon J.G. ;Ismail W.O.A.S.W.The primary objective of this research is to study the critical region of the local furniture manufacturing company by using a Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA). At the same time, the study also aims to help the organization to minimize production costs by presenting the preliminary stage of the results of the assessment. Many industries used FMEA as a method to improve the evaluation of the reliability of a production process. The use of FMEA is to analyze the layout characteristics of the planned production process in order to ensure that the final product meets customer requirements and expectations. It uses probabilities of detection and occurrence added with a few severity standards to create a risk priority number (RPN) for rating improvement action considerations. Utilized in both the manufacturing and design processes, they notably help to reduce cost factors with the aid of determining product and process improvements early within the development process while changes are inexpensively and relatedly easy to do. Based on the results, there were two failure modes with a higher RPN. The assessment is deductive as it periodically moves from one source to another. Thus, it can assist the company in improving its manufacturing process by reducing the mistakes that been made by identifying the cause and effect of it.
