In recent years, the research on magneto-rheological elastomer sandwich structures has increased due to the adjustable properties by varying the magnetic field. However, the study is mainly focused on the theoretical analysis of the magneto-rheological elastomers MRE sandwich plates. In this works, the numerical and experimental investigation on th...

This book contains the selected, peer-reviewed manuscripts presented at the Conference on Multidisciplinary Engineering and Technology (COMET 2019), held at the University Kuala Lumpur Malaysian Spanish Institute (UniKL MSI), Kedah, Malaysia, from September 18 to 19, 2019. This event presented research being carried out in the field of mechanical,...

The Lithium-ion battery has been widely used in the development of electric vehicles. However, awareness of battery safety has been encouraged to use aluminium based batteries. Therefore, in this study, an aluminium ion battery cell with 25 mm × 100 mm of diameter and height respectively was designed using the SolidWorks 2016 software. Then the alu...

Phenolic resin is a thermosetting polymer resin is that is known for its excellent thermal properties and chemical stability. Thus, it could be advantageous if it could be utilized in graphite polymer composites as the cathode in aluminium ion batteries. In this study, graphite polymer composites with 3 cm of diameter and 3 cm of thickness had been...

This paper presents the results of an investigation on the performance characteristics of a small spark ignition (SI) engine fueled by liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) to be compared with gasoline fueled. The LPG delivery systems used was fuel injection while carburetor was used for gasoline. In the experiment, wide open throttle (WOT) was run on a fo...

The braking performance has become a very important factor for automotive manufacturers and passenger because of the safety requirements. In general, brake squeal occurrences can be reduced by decreasing the friction coefficient; however, the braking performances also decrease. The objectives of this study are obtaining the dynamics properties (nat...

Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) are becoming increasingly popular for ocean exploration, industrial and military application. In particular, AUVs are becoming the attractive option for underwater search and survey operation as they are inexpensive compared to manned vehicles. Most of an AUV power is utilized by its propulsion system. Since th...

Climate changes and increased demands for energy, tends researchers in searching for environmental friendly resources of energy that can be used in internal combustion engines (ICEs). Hydrogen fuel is one of alternative fuels that produces zero emission. It has been extensively studied by various researchers in internal combustion engines. However,...

This research will concern itself primarily with the ergonomics of motor vehicle specifically in race car especially for cockpit UniKL MSI Perodua Eco-Challenge Race Car. Motor racing is very popular sport around the world. There are several types of motorsport that has long existed, including the Formula 1 which is the sport's most prestigious mot...

This paper presents the results of an investigation on the effect of air filter elements on the performance of spark ignition (SI) engine. Three different types of material; paper, cotton and foam were tested as filtering element in the air filter before the mixing process with fuel in the carburettor. In the experiment, a four-stroke single-cylind...

This paper presents the results of an investigation on the effect of 2T oil blend on the performance of Spark Ignition (SI) engine. Three different types of 2T-oils; mineral oil, semi-synthetic oil and fully synthetic oil were tested according to blend ratio before the mixing process with fuel in the carburetor. In the experiment, a two-stroke sing...
