It was reported recently that high amount of aromatic ring or number of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon compounds found in aromatic oil are carcinogenic. This paper discusses the work to evaluate the Malaysian cooking oil as an alternative option to be used as process oil since cooking oil is safe to use and non-toxic. The performance of cooking oil is compared againstaromatic and paraffinioils. The results showed that rubber compounds containing cooking oil produced almostsimilar cure characteristicsas those produced by aromatic and paraffinioils indicating that it did not interfere with the vulcanization reaction. The physical properties of the vulcanizates containing cooking oil were almostsimilar to those of vulcanizates containing aromatic and paraffinioils, except the rebound resilience. The vulcanizates containing cooking oil gave higher resilience than vulcanizates containing aromatic and paraffinioils. High resilience is one of the desired features for a low rolling resistance tyre. Cooking oil provided this extra advantage.

This research identifid the factors affcting the widespread of the level of serum cholestrol among adult obese patients admitted to government hospitals in the easternpart of Sri Lanka, and identifie the number of adults obese patients with increasing serum cholesterollevel. A descriptive cross-sectional studydesign was used. Convenience sampling technique helped select 150 patients in medical wards and clinics of two government hospitals in the easternprovince of Sri Lanka, and Questionnaireswere distributedfor data analysis. Overall findingsof 150 obese patients regarding increasing serum cholestrol level admitted in the medical wards and follow-up at medical clinics had 59% in moderate risk, 36% with high risk, and 2% with a minimal risk of increasing serum cholestero level. Gender was a factor, which brings about 49.3% (n = 74) of the respondents were female and 50.7% (n = 76) were male. About 59% of participants had 130–159 mg/dl of total cholesterollevel while 36% had 160–189 mg/dl and 1% had lower than 100 mg/dl. It was also identifiedthat age and co-morbidities of obesity are factors that affect an increasing serum cholesterol level

Hydrocarbons as Refrigerants?A Review J. H. KOH; Z. ZAKARIA

Publisher : Universitas Gadjah Mada

Refrigerants used in air conditioning and refrigeration (AC&R) indusries have come full circle since the beginning of the industrialrevolution. With concern on issues relating to the environment such as the global warming and climate change issues, we should finda better alternative than to continue using these refrigerants that cause global warming and ozone depletion. AC&R industryplayers have blended in by introducing some new equipment and components that are specificallydesigned for hydrocarbon (HC) use. Mostnew refrigerators sold in Malaysia are already equipped with isobutane [a hydrocarbon designated as R-600a by the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) standards]as refrigerants. Malaysia has ratifiedthe Montreal Protocol and targetted a 10% reduction in hydrochlorofluorocarbon(HCFC) consumption, beginning 2016 with the banning of 2.5 horsepower (hp) and below in air-conditioning (AC) equipment to be used. Instead,hydrofluorocarbon(HFC) R-410a was introduced as a replacement for HCFC- 22, whereas in other countries this HFC has been phased down. This article was initiated because of the difficultin findinga replacement for HCFC. Also, the possibilities of using HC as an alternative to replace HCFC insteadof using HFC as a transitional refrigerant in place of HCFC is reviewed in this article. The performance of HC is very similar to HCFC and flmmability issues could be easily overcome with the use of an effectivedesign. Their use could be facilitated with the adaptation of specific standards and properly enacted legislatio

This meta-analysis analyzed the prevalence of diarrheoal diseases among children less than fiveyears in three selected Eas African countries from 2012–2017. Search engines used Google Scholar, Proquest,and PubMed. Primarily, 300 studes were selected; hence 297 were eliminated using inclusion and exclusion criteria. The PICO (population, intervention, comparison, and outcome) guide helped in the analysis of the three selected stdies. The prevalence of diarrhoea among children less than fiveyears in the three selected EastAfrican countries from 2012 to 2017, averaged to 27% range from a minimum of 11% to a maximum of 54% of the 5478 total respondents (OR 2.07). The five-yearprevalence escalated extensively at Kenya, Ethiopia, and Somalia. There is a 207% risk of further escalation.

Correlation Between Thermal Diffusivity Variation and Quality of Cold Preserved Fish F.A Ansari; K.A Abbas; M.M.H Megat Ahmad

The present paper deals with establishment of correlation between thermal behaviour and quality of cold preserved fish. Experiments were designed and transient temperature-time variations were recorded at the center and other three equidistant locations during air blast cooling of slab shaped pieces of fresh water fish. A number of pieces from the same lot were cold preserved at 3°C for a period of 28 days and experiments were repeated daily. Time-temperature records were used to determine thermal diffusivity of each sample using the empirical approach of the first author, reported elsewhere. It was observed that the measured thermal diffusivity increased up to 14 days and then stayed approximately constant up to the end of the preservation period (28 days). According to the reported literature, it was found that the shelf life of fish preserved at 3°C is 14 days. Regression analysis was made to develop an empirical correlation between thermal diffusivity and preservation time of the fish under investigation.

ASEAN Journal on Science and Technology for Development Vol. 23 No. 1-2 (2006): ASEAN Journal on Science and Technology for Development (AJSTD)
Publisher : Universitas Gadjah Mada

The paper is an overview on an algebraic approach to domains of linguistic variables and somefirst applications to show the applicability of this new approach. In this approach, each linguistic domain can be considered as a hedge algebra (HA for short) and based on the structure of HAs,a notion of fuzziness measure of linguistic hedges and terms can be defined. In order to apply hedge algebras to those problems, the results of which are needed, a notion of semantically quantifying mappings (SQMs) will be introduced. It shown that there is a closed connection between SQMs and fuzziness measure of hedge and primary terms (the generators of linguistic domains). To show the applicability of this approach, new met hods to solve a Fuzzy Multiple Conditional Reasoning problem, the problem of Balancing an Inverted Pendulum will be presented.

Potential sites of quarries were evaluated by numerical rating techniques. There are 3 groups of implied rating factors on the rock deposits in surveyed quarry sites: the resource characteristics,resource economics, and the optimal excavation. A final resultfor each potential site wasrecorded and compared. In case of ongoing quarries, the planning steps for bench blasting were also suggested. By using the written packed program, the output results can be automatically demonstrated. Further trial processes can be done and the optimized blast plan view is obtained.

The moment method in statistical dynamics is used to study the equation of state and thermodynamic properties of the bcc metals taking into account the anharmonicity effects of the lattice vibrations and hydrostatic pressures. The explicit expressions of the lattice constant, thermal expansion oefficient, and the specific heats of the bcc metals are derived within the fourth order moment approximation. The termodynamic quantities of W, Nb, Fe,and Ta metals are calculated as a function of the pressure, and they are in good agreement with the corresponding results obtained from the first principles calculations and experimental results. The effective pair potentials work well for the calculations of bcc metals.

Numerical investigation of turbulent swirling flows through an abrupt expansion tube S. Eiamsa-ard; P. Promvonge
ASEAN Journal on Science and Technology for Development Vol. 23 No. 1-2 (2006): ASEAN Journal on Science and Technology for Development (AJSTD)
Publisher : Universitas Gadjah Mada

A numerical investigation of turbulent swirling flows through an abrupt expansion tube is reported. The TEFESS code, based on a staggered Finite Volume approach with the standard k-? model and first-order numerical schemes built-in, was used to carry out all the computations. The code has been modified in the present work to incorporate the ASM and two second-order numerical schemes. The ASM, which includes the non-gradient convection terms arising from the transformation from Cartesian to cylindrical coordinates, was investigated for isothermal flows by applying it to the flow through an abrupt expansion tube with or without swirl flows. In addition, to investigate the effects of numerical diffusion on the predicted results, two second-order differencing schemes, namely, second-order upwind and the quadratic upstream interpolation, were used to compare with the first-order hybrid scheme. An abrupt expansion tube with non-swirling flow, predicted results using both the k-? model and the ASM were in good agreement with measurements. For swirling flows, the calculated results suggested that the use of the ASM with a second-order numerical scheme leads to better agreement between the numerical results and experimental data, while the k-? model is incapable of capturing the stabilizing effect of the swirl.
