    Effective rice field management and the proper application of agricultural chemicals are crucial for ensuring agricultural product quality. These chemicals control weeds and protect against insect pests, which can harm crop yields and quality. This research explores the relationship between the altitude at which agricultural drones spray chemicals, spray uniformity, and chemical dispersion. The study assesses drone operations at heights of 1m, 1.5m, and 2m above hollow cone nozzles in 2.8m/s wind conditions. It aims to evaluate droplet uniformity and dispersion on water-sensitive paper placed on paddy plants, analyzed with ImageJ software. Results show that at 1.5m height, there's a significantly higher average droplet density, with 162.7 deposits/cm² in the upper region and 161.8 deposits/cm² in the lower region. Additionally, coverage is notably increased, at 55.21% for the upper region and 51.4% for the lower region. This research highlights the importance of optimal drone altitude for efficient chemical application in rice fields, improving crop protection and yield.

    Coal and coal-fired power plants are crucial for supplying global energy demand. However, coal-fired power plants produce significant quantities of bottom ash as by-products. Through these power plants, it produces approximately 18 tons of bottom ash each day. Malaysia has the challenging task of dealing with an increasing amount of waste generated by power plants each year. The high cost of construction and operation of incineration plants coupled with a lack of landfills have given rise to the need for waste minimization and recycling. The use of coal ash in concrete is a new dimension in concrete mix design and if applied on large scale can revolutionize the construction industry, by economizing the construction cost and decreasing the ash content. The used of the coal bottom ash in the concrete brick can reduce the wastage of the coal bottom ash in Malaysia, beside that the cost of the housing can be reduced. In addition, the sustainability in the housing construction in Malaysia can be achieved using the wastage material in the construction.

    This paper introduces a smart water meter that utilizes the capabilities of the Internet of Things (IoT) to automate the collection of meter readings. The primary goal of this project is to create an IoT-based device for reading water meters, while simultaneously developing a compatible mobile application. Instead of relying on manual meter reading, which requires human effort, this project proposes the use of an IoT-enabled water meter to collect the data automatically. The device employs a camera and Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) for image processing, making it easy to detect the meter reading accurately. The IoT system architecture involves the use of an ESP32 CAM for data collection, a laptop as a gateway, and the Message Queuing Telemetry Transport (MQTT) protocol for data transfer. The collected data is stored in Firebase's real-time database, and the mobile application is designed to monitor and analyze the data. A functional prototype of the device is constructed and tested in a housing area. The collected data is then monitored through the developed mobile application. Lastly, the data is analyzed to assess the suitability of the proposed method, and recommendations for future improvements are provided.

    The mathematical modeling approach has been applied in order to increase the cam profile curve of Modenas CT115s performance by using MATLAB software as a programmed to calculate the mechanism of the cam profile. Cam is used inside the engine to push the rocker and consequently open and close the engine valve that allows the fuel-air mixture to be entered during the combustion process. The B-Spline curve was implemented in order to enhance the current performance of the cam profile. The calculation had been done by using manual and MATLAB software. The results obtained has been analyzed and interpreted in plotting the graphs. From the analysis, the profile that had the highest displacement factor, sk produced higher cam curve performance of the engine. Thus, it can be concluded that the increase of the displacement factor, sk can increase the engine performance as the valve displace further in which allow higher fuel-air mixture entrance during the combustion process.

    The diversities of contractual terms in construction projects leads to a diversified contractual interpretation in one project. In the long term, the contractual discrepancies would result the project suffered from the dispute. Given the circumstances of measurement contracts, which refers to re – measurement or measure and value contracts are normally used when the quantity of the project can’t be describe in the exact amount. In the construction projects that involving complicated design, the difficulty may rose from the initial stage of architectural features. Often, the re-measuring’s fatality occurred when the elements finishes in the building has been over claimed by the contractor. Even so, the uncertainties of client’s instruction have always contributing to the excessive utilization of the fancy finishes in the construction projects. As a result, a dispute ascended due to payments, claim and work done issue. Site re-measurement can be done. However, in regard to almost completed building construction, the site re-measurement may get difficult as human can’t reach the building that has been constructed. Thus, issues on safety and accuracy may followed. Advance technology has provided the ability to implement the building survey without risking of manpower which is using the application of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). Therefore, the research is carried out to identify the attributes of UAV application in roof re – measurement in building works and investigate the implementation of the UAV application. Using the literature search, the attributes of UAV application has been identified and the prototype case study has been selected to investigate the process of UAV application for roof site re-measurement. The results indicated that the utilization of UAV application is feasible as the tools for re – measurement of building works as the issues on the safety and accuracy are safeguarded.

    This work evaluated the effect of different loading and size of date seeds (DS) on some mechanical properties of LLDPE/DS composites. Three different size (125 - 250 mm, 250-500 mm, and 500 - 1000 â–¡m) and four different size loading (5, 10, 15, 20 wt%) of DS were used in this work. Flexural and Impact properties were evaluated when DS added to the LLDPE/DS composites. In order to fabricate this composite, the extrusion process followed by injection molding process was used respectively. It is found that the Flexural strength and Flexural modulus decreased with the increasing of date seeds loading in the composites. Furthermore, the Flexural properties of the composite with a coarser size of DS reduced more than other size of DS. The results of the impact strength testing have shown a similar trend of flexural properties. The LLDPE/DS composites at high DS loading show low impact strength (IS) value. Furthermore, the DS coarser size shows lower impact strength than other DS size. The reduction of the mechanical properties in the composites was probably due to the lack of a suitable coupling agent system need to be used to improve the adhesion bonding between filler and matrix.

    In this work, the influences of different concentration of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) (3, 6 and 9 wt.%) on the flexural and impact properties of linear low-density polyethylene / date seeds (LLDPE/DS) composites were examined. The LLDPE / DS ratio was fixed at 90/10 wt.% and the size of DS particles was measured at 125 - 250 micro m. The process used to synthesize the composites id extrusion followed by injuction molding process. Results showed that the presence of NaOH particularly at 6 wt.% concentration has improved the flexural and impact properties of the composite. This is due to bonding of the date seeds particles with the LLDPE matrix that reflected posativelly on the mechanical properties of the composite. However, the using of high NaOH concentration (9 wt.%) has shown an opposite trend, the increasing of surface roughness of the fiber after 9% NaOH treatment has reduced the flexibility of the composite and made it stiffer and more rigid, which in turn made it easy to break during mechanical test.

    Tracking the heritage building changes has been a primary concern in an architectural works, as the building features may transformed due to periodic of time. In addition, the perseverance of heritage buildings seems taken lightly due to the eagerness of the Malaysian architect in designing urban anxious architectural features for the new building development. Therefore, in order to preserve the delicate features in heritage building; the development of an 'As Built Drawing' (ABD) is crucial. Plotting the ABD has several laidback which includes the reachability of the human to measure the building on site. Hence, technology acceleration using Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) has provided an instrument to develop ABD without risking human's lives. Prior to development of ABD, there are several challenges in the implementation, specifically on the photogrammetry area. The photogrammetry phase in this research is crucial, as the ambiguous imaging captured can caused the misrepresentative Building Modelling replication. Therefore, the research aims to identify the imaging challenges during the progression of producing the ABD using UAS technology. With aid of the 3D Laser Scanner, the instrumental parameters have been set up, and data were recorded. On field data were collected in heritage building in Masjid Alwi Kangar. The ABD has been produced and the challenges arose from the implementation were bountiful to discuss. The research found that, the imaging challenges were the imperative parameters to tackle in order to score the accuracy in producing ABD using UAS technology.
