FB-S0006 Multi-fractal Techniques for Emphysema Classification in Lung Tissue Images
Musibau Ibrahim and Ramakrishnan Mukundan
University of Canterbury
Abstract—This paper presents a multi-fractal based approach for the classification of
emphysema patterns by calculating the local singularity coefficients of an image using
different intensity measures. One of the primary statistical measures of self-similarity used in
the processing of tissue images is holder exponent (α-value) that represents the power law
which the intensity distribution satisfies in local pixel neighbourhoods. The fractal dimension
corresponding to each α-value gives a multi-fractal spectrum f(α) that could be used as a
feature descriptor for classification. Experimental results show that multi-fractal spectrum
could be effectively used for the classification of histopathological cases. Some important
implementation aspects of the multi-fractal based classification scheme that could be used for
improving classification accuracy are also discussed.
L0003 Oral Intake of N-acetyl-D-glucosamine Suppresses the Growth of Helicobacter Pylori in
Gastric Mucosa of Mongolian Gerbils by Increasing Gland Mucus
Jun Yamada, Takeshi Hattori, Tomoya Ueno, Daiki Kubomura, and Hideki Matsuda
Yaizu Suisankagaku Industry Co., Ltd.
Abstract—Oral intake of N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (GlcNAc) for 24 weeks suppressed the
growth of Helicobacter pylori in the gastric mucosa of Mongorian gerbils. Inhibition was
confirmed by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Histochemical analysis
revealed that, as compared with intake of normal chow, intake of GlcNAc led to a significant
increase in gland mucus, which contains gland mucus cell mucin, in the stomach of gerbils
infected with H. pylori. Gland mucus cell mucin has O-glycans that contain terminal
α1,4-linked GlcNAc residues, which are known to suppress H. pylori growth. We conclude
that oral GlcNAc intake led to an increase in terminal α1,4-linked GlcNAc residues in gland
mucus cell mucin and this increase in terminal GlcNAc residues inhibited the growth of H.
pylori in the gerbil‘s stomach.
L0004 The Effects of Ph and Cell Density to the Responses of Immobilized Cyanobacteria for
Copper Detection
Rubban Kunasakaran, Sughan Vijayan, Wong Ling Shing, and Mee Kin Chai
Inti International University
Abstract—Rapid urbanization and industrialization lead to heavy metal pollution which
poses a serious threat to human‘s health. Thus, there is a continuing need to develop a device
that can be easily used to monitor and detect the presence of heavy metal pollution. Whole
cells e.g. cyanobacteria have been reported as potential bio-indicators for environmental
heavy metals detection. However, the intensity of the biological responses of these cells is

affected by pH and the cell density. In this paper, the effect of pH and cell density to the
response of cyanobacteria Anabaena cylindrica to copper (Cu) is reported. The cyanobacteria
were cultured and immobilized with agarose in cuvettes before the exposure to Cu solution
(1.0 mg/L). The measurement was carried out with OD= 680 nm using a spectrophotometer,
which indicated the changes of chlorophyll. The most significant response of the cells was
measured at pH 8 and the optimal density of the cell for the detection was 500,000 cell/mL.
This study was an important stage to determine the potential of A. cylindrica to be used in
heavy metal detection.
L0006 Effect of Cytokinins on In Vitro Regeneration of Cardamine hirsuta from Nodal Explants
Weng Hing Thong and Kasturi Madhialagan
Inti International University
Abstract—An efficient protocol has been established for the regeneration of Cardamine
hirsuta. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of types and concentrations of
cytokinins on in vitro regeneration of C. hirsuta, an important medicinal and edible plant.
Nodal explants of C. hirsuta were cultured in Murashige & Skoog (MS) media containing
kinetin or zeatin singly at concentrations of 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, and 5.0 mg /L. MS medium
devoid of plant growth regulators served as control. The growth parameter observed
including number of shoots, leaves, and roots. 2.0 mg/L zeatin induced the highest number of
shoots and leaves. 1.0 mg/L kinetin-treated explants showed the highest formation of roots.
From the results obtained, it was learnt that 2.0 mg/L zeatin was a more effective cytokinin
compared to kinetin for in vitro regeneration of C. hirsuta as it induced the highest shoot and
leaf growth while minimizing root formation. Concentrations of zeatin above optimal level
not only caused stunted growth, but also resulted in hyperhydration. In conclusion, in vitro
regeneration can serve as an alternative propagation method for C. hirsute.
L1001 Immunosensing Interface Based on Diazonium Cations Modified Indium Tin Oxide
Nadiya T. Darwish, Yatimah B.Alias, and Khor S. Mei
University Malaya
Abstract—An electrochemical biosensing interface –was fabricated for immunological based
detection. Biosensing interface contains linker molecule 1,4-Phenyl diamine (PPD) for
immunosensing application was grafted via electrochemical reduction/in situ deposition of
aryl diazonium salts on indium tin oxide electrode (ITO) . The Reductive adsorption
behaviour through electrochemical measurement for (PPD) were studied .The deposition of
PPD was also confirmed by using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Field
emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) to characterize the morphology of the
grafted films and the distribution of the linker molecules 1,4-Phenylenediamine which bound
to the gold nanoparticles (GNP). The reductive adsorbtion peak of PPD was observed at –
0.36 V and the electrode surface modified with diazonium salts shows suppression of the
peak current when tested in both the Fe(CN)63− and Ru(NH3)63+solution which attributed
to the formed layer on the electrode surface repell/resist those redox probes to be diffused to
the electrode surface. FTIR spectra of modified electrode shows a broad peak at 3505 cm__1
which clearly indicates that the NH2 group of diazonium salt were presence on the surface of
the modified surface. FE_SEM images of modified ITO shows granular -like structures
indicate the presence of a diazonium salt with excellent distribution of GNP.

Abstract—The objective of present study was to evaluate the in vivo effect of Bacopa
monnieri leaf extract (100 mg/kg) and acephate (37.8 mg/kg) on Acetylcholinesterase
(AChE) activity, kinetics and histology of cerebral cortex and hippocampus of brain of male
albino rat. AChE activity was measured spectrophotometrically according to the method of
Ellman et al..The acephate inhibited AChE activity strongly in cerebral cortex (72.5%; P <
0.02) than in hippocampus (55.6 %; P < 0.02). Bacopa monnieri similarly elicited higher
AChE inhibition in cerebral cortex (51.6 %; P < 0.05) than in hippocampus (38 %; P < 0.01).
However, synergistic inhibitory effect was recorded in rats pretreated with Bacopa monnieri
followed by acephate exposure. Kinetic study of treated groups demonstrated competitive
AChE inhibition in the brain regions, which was evident by increased Km and unchanged
Vmax values against the control group. The histopathological examinations showed
degeneration of pyramidal cells, deformity of neurocytes and vacuole formation in
cytoplasm. These changes were pronounced with acephate. Our result shows that Bacopa
monnieri has anti-cholinesterase potential hence it could provide novel pharmacological
leads of potential benefit to the treatment of Alzheimer‘s disease and therefore warrant
further investigation.
L1003 The Role of Environmental and Genetical Factors in both Migraine Headaches and Multiple
Sclerosis
Haniyeh Rahbar Kafshboran and Abbas Nikravesh
Islamic Azad University
Abstract—Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory process, which aetiology is not
yet completely understood. Studies investigating a proposed association between multiple
sclerosis (MS) and migraine have produced conflicting results especially in young female
and a great range in the prevalence rate of migraine in MS patients. Also, studies suggest
migraine as a risk factor for appearance and developing the MS and the severity of disease.
Since the fact that the environmental and genetic factors play role in the pathology of both
mentioned illnesses, in this study we compared the role of some these factors in both
migraine and MS.
L2004 Biological Responses of Tropical Cladoceran, Ceriodaphnia cornuta to Different Algae Diets
Hasnun Nita Ismail, Umi Wahidah Ahmad Dini, and Chia Chay Tay
Universiti Teknologi Mara
Abstract—The biological responses of tropical cladoceran, Ceriodaphnia cornuta fed on
different algae diets were investigated under laboratory conditions. Two types of microalgae,
Chlorella (C) and Scenedesmus (S) were given as mono-algal diet and multi-algal diet (CxS).
The different types of algae diets have significantly altered the biological responses of C.
cornuta. Diet contained Chlorella alone promoted high longevity, fast egg development,
early maturation, increased egg clutch number and increased egg and offspring production.
As a result, animals showed higher survival, faster development and greater reproductive
output. On the other hand, diet with Scenedesmus alone supports for higher growth rate more
than Chlorella. Despite of the opposite algal effect, diet combination of both algal (Chlorella
2014 APCBEES KUALA LUMPUR CONFERENCES

x Scenedesmus) enhanced all biological responses. Therefore, this study suggests that the diet
combination of both algae is the optimum diet to boost up the survival, development and
reproduction of C. cornuta. This outcome has provides the guideline to choose the suitable
algal species which can maximize the biological performance of C. cornuta.
L3004 Adoption of Integrated Pest Management by Farmers in Orumba South Local Government
Area of Anambra State, Nigeria
Angela Ngozi Obiajulu
Federal College of Education (Technical)Umunze
Abstract─The study assessed the level of adoption of Integrated Pest Management (IPM)
among the farmers in Orumba South Local Government Area of Anambra State, Nigeria.
Questionnaire was used to illicit responses from the 140 farmers randomly selected from the
area. It was observed that only 16.43% of the farmers had adopted IPM approach in their pest
control operations in the area. The results of multiple regression analysis on the
socio-economic characteristics of the farmers revealed that age, among other factors,
positively influenced the farmers‘ level of adoption of IPM. It further showed that years of
experience in pesticide application is one of the factors that had negative influence on the
adoption of IPM technology. Poor extension services and poor knowledge of 1PM innovation
were among the identified constraints to IPM adoption in the area. The paper suggested
active farmers‘ participation in the on-going FADAMA III project aimed at assisting the
farmers with financial and other agricultural inputs and vigorous extension practices aimed at
disseminating agricultural innovations like IPM to the farmers.

ESR-S0005 Sediment Toxicity Assessment by Algal Growth Inhibition Assay
Jaber Al-Shammari and Mirza Umair Beg
Kuwait University, Kuwait Institute for Scientific Research (KISR)
Abstract—Marine sediment is considered to be a sink of most of the particulate bound
pollutants. However, these pollutants may be leached during re-suspension of sediment and
exert adverse effects on the water column organism. Algal growth inhibition assay was used
as surrogate to water column organisms to determine the toxicity of sediment. The study
showed that algal growth inhibition test could differentiate very toxic, toxic, mildly toxic
2014 APCBEES KUALA LUMPUR CONFERENCES

and non-toxic sediments. The IC50 values indicated hot spots in Kuwait‘s marine area
where sediment released bioavailable contaminants causing inhibition in algal growth. The
test also indicated growth stimulatory contaminants present in sediment that can enhance
algal growth at the site and cause adverse effect on the ecosystem. Algal growth inhibition
test is an addition to the existing multi-trophic battery of tests used for water or sediment
quality assessment in our laboratory.
ESR-S0009 The Needs for Integrated Water Resource Management (IWRM) Implementation Progress
Assessment in Malaysia
Anis Syazwani Sukereman and Robiah Suratman
UNIVERSITI TEKNOLOGI MALAYSIA, SKUDAI
Abstract—Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) has attracted much global
attention as the recommended approach to help countries achieve solutions to water crisis
management. Many policies and programs have been set up to ensure the IWRM can be
effectively implemented. However, in Malaysia the implementation of IWRM is still
remains in doubt. To date, there is no authorized framework for assessing the
implementation progress among various stakeholders. Although a good example of the
monitoring initiatives on IWRM implementation have been developed at global and
national level; it has only been used widely as general references. Therefore, the study
aimed to explore the significance in assessing IWRM implementation progress, so as to
offer an alternative way for progress monitoring and help stakeholders better recognize if
Malaysia is on the right track in sustaining its water resources. In line, this paper promotes
the need to develop a framework for IWRM Implementation Progress Assessment as a
work performance guideline especially to the various stakeholders involved.
ESR-S0014 Forecasting the Mean of Monthly Rainfall by Applying Time Series (Case Study: Baba -
Amman Bojnourd Pluviometer Station)
Abbas A. Ghezelsofloo, Mahbobe Hajibigloo, and ReyhanaAzimi
Gorgan University of Iran
Abstract—The limitation of water recourses caused to obtain water for agricultural and non
– agricultural requirement is occurred. Rain is considered as the most particles of renewable
resources. Rainfall forecast and evaluates the value of them in every month or year and for
every region or basin area as the most meteorological parameters is most important in water
recourses. For prediction of rainfall, we can use times series. The aim of this research is
study of the best rainfall estimation model. By applying monthly rainfall in 30 years period
(1350-1380) by using of MINITAB software estimated the last 10 years of monthly rainfall
period (1381-1391) in Baba - Amman Bojnourd pluviometer station in North Khorasan.
With comparing the estimated value of monthly rainfall with real corresponding values
determined the patterns which have been most parameters and their autoregressive mean is
more than one, for next year‘s different values will be estimated. These different are
districted in many years. This is exceeded than autoregressive mean. Coefficient
determination between real values and forecast values in case study station is 0.64.
ESR-S0015 Assessment and Serving of Groundwater Contamination Caused by Livestock Activities
(Case Study: Mashhad Plain Aquifer, Iran)
Abbas Ali Ghezelsofloo, Reyhane Azimi, and Dawood Zakeri
Gorgan University of Iran
2014 APCBEES KUALA LUMPUR CONFERENCES
- 12 -
Abstract—Industrial livestock activities are considered as the most pernicious and harmful
ones leading to increased water shortage problem all over the world. Managing livestock
sewages and selecting the most proper method in order to excrete them play a significant
role in enhancing the quality of water resources. Livestock intensity is not regarded as the
only parameter affecting water quality that is in time managing of livestock products is also
of an outstanding importance. According to the studies conducted on the study area, most of
the methods to excrete excreta and effluent caused by livestock, poultry and aquaculture are
executed in non-standard modes whereas more than 300 thousand tons of livestock excreta
are produced in industrial livestock keeping centers located at Mashhad plain annually.
These centers produces more approximately 104 and 36 cubic meters of nitrogen and
phosphorous per year, respectively. Such an amount of contaminants cause completely
dangerous toxicities if entered into groundwater resources. In this study, along with
studying Mashhad plain aquifer characteristics, we evaluate the vulnerability of
groundwater resources to livestock caused contaminants. Finally, regarding to the important
role of the plain aquifers to provide fresh water for Mashhad metropolis and the adjacent
areas, we represent some solutions for reducing and combating livestock originating
contaminations.
ESR-S0022 The Development of an Automated System in Detecting Environmental Data for the
Monitoring of Forest Activity
Shahrizuan Bin Shafiril, Amri Yusoff, and Norma Che Yusoff
Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris
Abstract—Forest ecosystems have always received worldwide attention due to their
biological diversity and these forests are vital for human existence. However, the area is
decreasing due to human negligence and over-exploitation by the human population. Recent
reports show evidences of illegal logging and harvesting activities through the collection of
environmental data. This research characterizes the dynamics, cycle of temperature,
humidity, and phase particles of a prototype device for data collection. The hardware
components for this prototype will consist of temperature and humidity sensors, solar Lipo
Rider for self-powering device and phase particle sensors. Sensor data has been identified
as salient data for the preservation and protection of the biological ecosystem, in terms of
population wellbeing and prolonged heritage. Therefore, the development of this
Automated System Detecting Environment (ASDE) will be useful in assisting regulatory
bodies, researchers and ecologists to identify changes within the ecosystem

Abstract—In this present attempt, surface water source of Korba district was studied for its
know-how of its quality depletion over a period of time. During the analysis period, nine
water sampling sites were selected, assigned from KDS-1-to KDS-9. Water samples were
collected in pre-cleaned polyethylene and glass bottles of 1L capacity from March-2010 to
May-2010 (pre-monsoon). The collected water samples were analyzed as per the standard
methods. Results were compared with standard values prescribed by BIS (1991) and WHO
(2008). Except fluoride (1.17) and Dissolved Oxygen (4.411mgL-1
), remaining all

parameters were exceeded the desired limits. It was quite evident from the data that
significant strong positive correlation was observed across Fe Vs TDS (r=+0.961), Fe Vs
Hardness(r=0.961) Fe Vs phosphate (r=0.961) Fe Vs Al(r=0.961). On contrary, Do and TDS
related negative high degree correlation (r=-0.792). Calculated WQI revealed that entire
water sources were highly polluted by the undesirable chemical constituents; hence water
sources of the present study area might not be useful for any purposes.
ESR-S0029 Seasonal Variation of Landfill Methane and Carbon Dioxide Emissions in a Tropical
Climate
Mohammed F.M. Abushammala, Noor Ezlin Ahmad Basri, and Mohammad K. Younes
Middle East College
Abstract—Landfill gas (LFG) emissions were measured in a landfill in tropical conditions
in Malaysia to investigate seasonal variations in methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2)
emissions. The study results showed that CH4 and CO2 emissions were ranged from 0 to
1,602 g m-2
d-1
and 5 to 2,753 g m-2
d-1
during wet and dry seasons, respectively, and higher
CH4 and CO2 emissions were found during the wet season than in the dry season. It is
concluded that special consideration must be given to landfill cover soil in order to enhance

Tee Sin-Yee and Low Sheau-Ting
Universiti Teknologi Malaysia
Abstract—This study focuses on attributes to foster waste segregation behaviour in
organization. Recycle can reduce the amount of waste in sustainable way. Segregate the
waste before recycling is important to avoid contamination of waste which could diminish
the value of recycling. Segregate the waste before recycling can increase recycle rate as
well. A preliminary study conducted in organizational setting indicates that waste
segregation behaviour among the community in organisation was found not encouraging.
Critical literature search over previous studies conducted in related discipline shows total of
four attributes affecting the waste segregation behaviour among the community:
accessibility to the recycling bins, information on recycling, incentive for the segregate the
waste, and reminder to the users to segregate waste. The attributes identified from the
literature review will provide a guidance in fostering the waste segregation behaviour in a
community.

Abstract—In recent days ground water quality is deteriorating at alarming rate due to
increased industrial activities. This study assessed the water quality of 30 samples collected
from 4 locations of Pydibhimavaram industrial area. An investigation was carried out by
collecting a total of 30 ground water samples for three seasons in study area to assess the
ground water quality for its suitability for agriculture and domestic purpose. This study
focused on variation of water quality parameters with reference to water level fluctuations.
The well reduced levels were determined with the help of total station and these levels are
connected to the mean sea level. Ground water levels from the well top surface were
measured using water level indicator. Water quality parameters such as pH, total hardness,
chlorides (Cl), iron (Fe), electric conductivity (E.C), sulphates (SO42-
), nitrates (NO3-),
cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), nickel (Ni) and zinc (Zn) were analyzed. These parameters were
estimated using standard procedures and the results were compared with environmental
quality standards. The results indicated that the water quality of the study area exceed the
permissible limits of standards. This showed that the ground water of the study area was
contaminated due to the industrial effluents.
ESR-S4003 Mineralization of An Azo Dye Reactive Red 195 by Advanced Electrochemical
Electro-Fenton Process
Nader Djafarzadeh
Islamic Azad University, Miyaneh Branch
Abstract—In this paper, the electro-Fenton (EF) process was used for Degradation of a
monoazo dye, Reactive Red 195 (RR195). Hydrogen peroxide was electro-generated by
reduction of dissolved oxygen in acidic solution. EF process allows the production of active
intermediates, which react with the organic compounds leading to their mineralization. In
the electrochemical cell carbon paper (CP) was used as cathode and a Pt sheet was used as
anode. The experiments were conducted at room temperature in an open, undivided and
cylindrical glass cell of 500 mL capacity. H2O2 was continuously generated from the
two-electron reduction of O2 at cathode electrode while Fe3+
was added to the solution. The
effect of operational parameters such as applied current, initial pH and reaction time was
studied in an attempt to reach the higher dye removal efficiency. The degradation of RR195
was followed by total organic carbon (TOC) analysis. The results of TOC measurements
indicated that electro-Fenton with carbon paper allowed 75% degradation after 240 min of
electrolysis.

M. Zainora Asmawi and Abdul Razak Abd Aziz
INTERNATIONAL ISLAMIC UNIVERSITY MALAYSIA
Abstract—The concern for the natural and built environment has become crucial in relation
to the concept of sustainable development. Literatures show that the ecological design (ED)
concept has produced positive results in supporting the achievement of sustainable
development though it faces many challenges amongst public and other stakeholders of its
importance towards green environment. This research attempts to seek the level of the ED
compliance in the Putra University of Malaysia campus. The objectives are: (1) to
determine the present ED features that are being practised in education building in the
campus; and (2) to identify the level of compliance of ED variables in the campus. An
observation survey of 23 selected buildings within the campus was conducted, based on a
set of pre-determined five variables and its sub-variables in determining the level of
compliance to ED. The results demonstrated that the level was relatively moderate, and
many buildings failed to comply with some variables of ED. It is concluded that the
research has met its outlined objectives in which the findings demonstrate that the level of
ED compliance in the campus can be considered as moderate.

ESR-S0016 Rainfall Classification for Flood Prediction Using Meteorology Data of Kuching, Sarawak,
Malaysia: Backpropagation Vs Radial Basis Function Neural Network
Soo See Chai, Wei Keat Wong, and Kok Luong Goh
University of Malaysia Sarawak
Abstract—Rainfall is often defined by stochastic process due to its random characteristics,
i.e. space and time dependent and it is therefore, not easy to predict. In general, rainfall is a
highly non-linear and complicated phenomenon. In order to acquire an accurate prediction,
advanced computer modeling and simulation is required. Artificial Neural Network (ANN)
has been successfully used to predict the behavior of such non-linear system. Among the
different types of ANN models used, Backpropagation Network (BPN) and Radial Basis
Function Networks (RBFN) are the two common ANN models that had produced valuable
results. However, there was no study conducted to research on which, among these two
methods, is the better model for rainfall forecast. Therefore, this study will fill this gap by
comparing the capabilities of these two ANN models in rainfall forecast using metrological
data from year 2009 to 2013 obtained from Malaysian Meteorological Department for
Kuching, Sarawak, Malaysia. From the research, it is concluded that, BPN (MSE≈0.16,
R≈0.86) performs better as compared to RBFN (MSE≈0.22, R≈0.82).

Relationships Analysis
A. Nikahd, M. Hashim, and M. J. Nazemosadat
Institute of Geospatial Science and Technology (INSTeG), Universiti Teknologi Malaysia
Abstract—Unipolar ground-based weather radar has been a widely-used instrument for
rainfall measurement. These radar measurements however need to be calibrated for more
accurate rainfall estimation. This article introduces a new calibration approach using
reflectivity-rainfall rate (Z-R) relationship. Based on previous work utilizing the
radar-rainfall relationship; this article hypothesizes that the rainfall measurement from
ground based radar are affected by distance from radar and rainfall time duration. Two
consecutive year's unipolar ground-based radar data sets with 190 occurrences of rainfall
from 43 stations in calibration window of three hours. The results indicated that
radar-rainfall relationship bZ aR is better improvise with consider distance from radar and
rainfall time duration (R2 min= 58, R
2max=98). This new contribution is crucial for
minimizing uncertainties for accurate rainfall measurement and related-derived hydro
meteorological parameters to for input into various tasks in sustainable water resource
management especially in ensuring water security and mitigating rainfall-based disasters.

Abstract—In Malaysia, the total energy consumption is high particularly in commercial
sector. The building‘s energy demand is among the main contributors to the country‘s
energy use. National Energy Balance 2012 stated that commercial sector is the second
higher which contributed 33.2% of energy usage after industry 45.1% and followed by
residential sector of 21.2%. One of the major challenges faced by facilities manager is to
reduce the building‘s energy consumption. Although there are previous energy conservation

programs launched, the energy conservation progress in building still lacking behind. To
improve building user‘s energy conservation behaviour effectively, selection of right
communication channels then distributes energy conservation messages with the right
communication channels remains an important strategy. Critical literature search found that
there are six types of communication channels are appropriate to be used to foster energy
conservation behaviour: dialogue oriented approach, mass media, print media, outdoor
media, audio visual media and utility items.
ESR-S0035 Assessment of the Effects of Community Expansion and Land Use Transformation on a
Coastal Area in Thailand

KU-SLUSE, Kasetsart University
Abstract—This study investigates land use change over the past 12 years at Chao Samram
beach, Thailand, and evaluates the physical, social, and economic impact on the area. From
1999 to 2011, land use changed significantly, especially in the urban, aquaculture and salt
flat, and bare land areas. Conversely, we observe that the area covered by mangrove forests
and water did not decrease significantly. Only the area used for agriculture and rice farming
decreased. We also note that the density distribution of communities along the coast was
according to the economic and social development plan of the municipal district, and
population density has increased continuously since 2004. Economic activity revolves
around two sectors: rice farming accounts for 59.29% of total income and tourism, 36.6%.
An investigation of the physical landscape indicates that the beach eroded severely during
2005–2006 and 2009–2010 and finds evidence of accretion in 2004–2005 and 2008–2009.
The total economic loss that occurred because of the threatened land and buildings is
approximately 177.69 million baht. This study concludes that to understand coastal zone
development, we need to consider the long-term physical, social, and economic losses.

ESR-S3001 The Impact of Wave Blocking from Ship Hulls on the Stability of Tg. Piai Coastline
Jacob Hjelmager Jensen and Juan C Savioli and Ms. Khairunnisa Saaban
Technical University of Denmark
Abstract—Tg. Piai, located on the southern tip of west Malaysia in Johor, is subject to
critical coastal erosion on the east side of the headland, and, as a consequence, severe loss
of protected mangrove coastline has been observed over the past 20 years. Various triggers
for this erosion have been proposed, all being linked to the extensive developments of the
region, and the increase in marine activities in the waters of Singapore Strait. In this study,
impacts on the regional (ambient) wave field, by the presence of ships in the Strait of
Singapore, are investigated. Waves are partially reflected off the hulls of the ships, and the
extensive presence of ships in the Strait of Singapore thus manifests itself as a blocking of
the ambient wave field, resulting in a wave climate near Tg. Piai that depend on the
congestion of ships. The integrated effect of the ship hull-induced wave reflections on the
ambient wave field is evaluated by using the numerical modelling tool MIKE 21.
Information on the number, the positions and the sizes of the ships are determined from
satellite images. It is found that the impacts of ship hull-induced wave reflections on the
nearshore wave field at Tg. Piai are significant, and, in particular, that the impacts on
nearshore wave periods are pronounced. The MIKE 21 model predicts significant
reductions in the wave periods at Tg. Piai when including the ships. These changes in the
wave periods can explain the changes to the coastal morphology observed at Tg. Piai,
including the coastal erosion, from the notion that the longer waves in the wave spectrum
tend to push sediment in the coastal profile onshore, whereas the shorter waves moves
sediment seaward.

Faculty of Plantation&Agrotechnology Universiti Teknologi MARA(UiTM)
Abstract—Conversion of peat land into pineapple farm by small scale farmers had resulted
in modification of soil chemistry and microstructures, which was inadequately discussed in
Malaysia. This study was designed to monitor the implications of pineapple cultivation on
chemistry and microstructure of peat soils. Microscopic study verified samples from
pineapple field demonstrate a highly degradable peat materials compared to natural peat.
Despite the presence of fertilization in pineapple plot, nutrient availability specifically total
N, available P, and exchangeable K, Ca, Mg and Na is much lower than natural plot. This
study suggested the dynamics of peat chemistry is much affected by acidic condition and
degradation of peat materials, which is highly dependent on creation of aerobic and
anaerobic environment.

Abstract—Peat profile exhibits a unique water table dynamics which impinge fate of
elements in the system. This work aimed to study the microstructure and elemental
composition of peat profiles using FESEM coupled with EDX techniques. Peat profiles
were divided into aerobic peat, anaerobic peat, transitional peat, mineral soils under
transitional peat and bottom mineral soils. Results demonstrated darker colour of former
layers and brighter gray colour of later layers. Water extracted from peat profiles were rich
in N, P, K, Ca and Mg. Microscopic image illustrates different stages of peat disintegration
experienced by each layer. The EDX results reveals astounding amount of N, Mg, K, Al and
Fe in transitional peat and mineral soils underneath, which was absence in peat layers. From
this study, it is believed there was a deposition and movement of elements upward and
downward peat profiles, concurrent with the fluctuating water table.
ESR-S4006 Soil Degradation in Part of Keffi Plain, Northern Nigeria
Idris Jaiyeoba and Jane Nwokelo
Federal University Lokoja
Abstract—This paper represents a ‗hybrid research‘ that integrate a scientific assessment of
soil degradation on farmers‘ field and the farmer‘s perceptions of the degradation processes
in five villages in Keffi area, north central Nigeria. Although there was less agreement on
factors that caused soil degradation, the scientific and community based derived
information were after all not as disparate as they are often perceived to be. Both support
the idea that severe soil degradation was present at community lands. All of the respondents
were aware of the important link between soil loss and agricultural production, as is the
relationship between some natural factors and landuses, and soil loss. However, there was
no evidence of a correspondingly equal desire of farmers to invest in the control of soil
degradation. The study thus provides a useful benchmark against which future changes of
attitude, and soil conservation progress might be measured in the study area.

few decades due to its viscoelastic properties that can suppress the turbulent in pipelines.
One of the many issues facing the use of these additives is its resistance to high shear forces
during the transportation where it can be easily degraded where they pass them a pump. In
the present work, polymer-surfactant complexes of anionic polymer and nonionic surfactant
are investigated to prove its capability in enhancing the drag reduction and mechanism
degradation performance. The interaction between anionic polymer Poly
(acrylamide-co-diallyl-dimethylammonium chloride) and nonionic surfactant tween 20 in
aqueous solution has been studied by using rheology, rotating disk apparatus (RDA) and
pipe loop techniques. The effect of polymer concentration, surfactant concentration and
rotational speed in enhancing the drag reduction were studied. The results showed that
almost 35% drag reduction can be obtained. In addition, the effect of the degradation on the
mixtures as a function in the time has been discussed also.

Abstract—The objective of this paper to present a potential of jacalin (protein extract from
A. heterophyllus seed) against human breast cancer (MCF7) and non-small lung carcinoma
(H1299). The extraction and purification were carried out by phosphate buffer precipitation
and reverse miceller, respectively. 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium
bromide (MTT) assay and trypan blue exclusion methods were performed to study the
cytotoxic activity. Jacalin and crude protein was compared in cytotoxic activity against
MCF7 and H1299 cancer cells and the result showed jacalin more effective than crude
protein, 64.73 and 75.54 percent for MCF7 and 67.71 and 68.39 percent for H1299,
respectively. Jacalin also found very active against MCF7 compared to H1299 cancer cells
and expected IC50 for both cancer cells would be reached if concentration of jacalin will
extended in cytotoxic activity analysis.
FB-S0001 Assessment of Wall Shear Stress and Arteriolar Network Architecture in Rat Skeletal
Muscle Using Biomicroscopy
Elena Kostromina
Moscow State University
Abstract—Understanding the mechanisms underlying the regulation of vessel diameter and
blood flow in the microcirculation is critically important for studying adaptive responses in
microvascular networks, and therefore, could facilitate the development of treatment
strategies for vascular disorders. Wall shear stress (WSS) induced by blood flow is
considered a significant factor determining the architecture of the microvascular bed;
however, the mechanisms regulating this process are not completely understood. The aim of
this study was to estimate WSS values in arterioles of different sizes and locations within a
microvascular bed, and to establish the relationship between WSS, wall-to-lumen ratio
(WLR), and other microcirculatory parameters in the rat skeletal muscle microvasculature
under normal physiological conditions. To perform quantitative analysis, data obtained
from intravital microscopic examination of 14 microvascular networks were used. Wall
thickness, WLR, WSS, and blood flow were estimated in arteriolar segments, for which the
outer and inner diameters, blood flow velocity, and location within the network were
determined. It was found that along the arteriolar tree, WSS varied within a wide range, and
2014 APCBEES KUALA LUMPUR CONFERENCES

a direct correlation between WLR and WSS was revealed. The established relationship
between WLR and WSS points to the coupled roles of transmural pressure and shear stress
in the development and adaptation of arteriolar networks, and could be used for the
development of computational models of terminal vascular beds.

UNIVERSITI MALAYSIA TERENGGANU
Abstract—Virgin coconut oil (VCO) is a promising candidate in promoting healing process
due to its biocompatibility and antibacterial activities. In this work, we investigated the
potential of VCO incorporated in gellan gum (GG) films to apply as wound dressing
materials. Non-ionic surfactants, i.e., Triton X-102 and Tween-20 were used to obtain stable
emulsions due to immiscible behavior between GG and VCO. Stable formation of
GG-VCO films was successfully obtained by using surfactants at above their critical
micelle concentrations, i.e. 1% (w/v) for Triton X-102 and 1.2% (w/v) for Tween-20. Cell
proliferation exhibited that VCO is non-cytotoxic to human skin fibroblast cells (CRL2522)
with limited cell growth observed on the film‘s surface which might be due to hydrophobic
influence of physic-chemistry of the materials surface. The in-vitro qualitative bacterial
study showed that GG-VCO films do not inhibit both Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus
aureus at all concentrations.

Abstract—Gait inconsistencies are a direct measure of a variety of diseases. Despite the fact
that they should be one of the simplest parameters to measure, the laboratory-based analysis
of gait cycle makes it inaccessible to a lot of people due to large area requirements and high
cost. This paper proposes a novel method for gait cycle calculation and inconsistency
detection. A simple setup consisting of a single-axis accelerometer and a microcontroller
has been used to analyze the accelerometer data in a computer simulation; hence, the
feasibility of making a low-cost embedded system for gait cycle calculation has been
shown.

Abstract—Any one of the four motor nerves in the cat sciatic nerve could be activated
selectively and independently, from threshold to saturation, using a self-sizing spiral cuff
electrode containing four radially placed monopolar contacts. The results of these
experiments support the hypothesis that selective and independent activation of any of four
motor fascicles in the cat sciatic nerve is possible using a four contact self-sizing spiral cuff
electrode. Furthermore, in a more general case, these results support the concept of a
―tunable‖ electrode that is capable of ―steering‖ the excitation from an undesirable location
to a preferred location.

Abstract—A thorough understanding of the principles of aerodynamics and structural
dynamics of the rotor system is required for designing a wind turbine system that can
generate power with high efficiency. The power generated by a Vertical Axis Wind Turbine
(VAWT) depends on the drag force generated by the individual blades and
interactions between them in a rotating configuration. The present analysis is an
attempt to predict numerically the coefficient of drag and other aerodynamic parameters for
a three and four blades Vane type Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VVAWT) with different
blades and vanes position. Commercial computational fluid dynamics CFD softwares
GAMBIT and FLUENT are used in the numerical analysis where the Shear Stress Transport
(SST) k-ω turbulence closure model is used. The results are found to be similar in nature to
those reported for VAWT having different blade designs.
ESR-S0042 The 3D-Computational Study of the Heat Transfer Enhancement by Using of the
Longitudinal and Transversal Internal Fins in a Heated Horizontal Pipe
Sofiane Touahri and Toufik Boufendi
Constantine 1 University
Abstract—In this work, we numerically study the three-dimensional mixed convection heat
transfer in a horizontal pipe equipped by longitudinal and transversal attached fins on its
internal surface for the solar application such as the water or air heating with solar panel.
The longitudinal fins studied number is: 2 vertical, 4 and 8 fins, while the number of
transversal fins is 8. The considered heights fin are H=0.12 and 0.24 cm. The convection in
the fluid domain is conjugated to thermal conduction in the pipe and fins solid thickness.
The physical properties of the fluid are thermal dependant. The model equations are
numerically solved by a finite volume method with a second order spatiotemporal
discretization. As expected for the longitudinal fins, the axial Nusselt number increases with
increasing of the number and height of fins. For 𝐺𝑟∗ = 5.1 105 , the average Nusselt
number without fins is equal to 13.144. The introduce of longitudinal fins gives an
average Nusselt number equal to 16.83, 22.523 and 32.066 for 2 vertical, 4 and 8 fins
respectively. The contribution of fins located in the lower part of the tube on the
improvement of heat transfer is higher than these of the upper fins. On the other hand, the
longitudinal fins are directly involved in the increase of heat transfer. This is justified by a
high local Nusselt number along the interface of the fins. This participation is moderate in
the case of transverse fins. These are used to mix the fluid causing an increase of local
Nusselt number at the interface in the cylindrical axial sections following the transversal
fins.
ESR-S0044 Effect of Varying Ambient Temperature and Solar Radiation on the Flow in a Solar
Chimney Collector

University Mentouri Bros Constantine
2014 APCBEES KUALA LUMPUR CONFERENCES
- 25 -
Abstract—The solar chimney Power plant system (SCPPS) is a simple solar thermal power
plant that is capable of converting solar energy into thermal energy in the solar collector. In
the second stage, the generated thermal energy is converted into kinetic energy in the
chimney and ultimately into electric energy using a combination of a wind turbine and a
generator. The purpose of this study is to conduct a more detailed numerical analysis of a
collector of the SCPPS. A mathematical model based on the Navier–Stokes, continuity and
energy equations was developed to describe the solar chimney power plant collector
mechanism in detail. The governing equations were solved numerically using an iterative
technique. The temperature, velocity and pressure distributions in the solar collector are
illustrated for the city of ‗Adrar‘ – Algeria – to examine the effect of varying ambient
temperature and solar radiation on the flow in the collector. Reasonably good quantitative
agreement was obtained between the experimental data of the Manzanares (Spain)
prototype and both the numerical results.

Tourist Attractions
Istana Negara (Chinese: 国家皇宫)
The Istana Negara (Malay for National Palace; Jawi: تان س ڬارا ي along Jalan (ن
Istana was the official residence of the Yang di-Pertuan Agong (Supreme
King) of Malaysia. It stands on a 13 acre (50,000 m² ) site, located at a
commanding position on the slope of a hill of Bukit Petaling overlooking the
Klang River, along Jalan Syed Putra.
Merdeka Square (Chinese: 独立广场)
Merdeka Square (or Dataran Merdeka, Jawi: ارن ك دات is located in Kuala (مردي
Lumpur,Malaysia. It is situated in front of the Sultan Abdul Samad Building.
It was here the Union Flag was lowered and the Malayan flag hoisted for the
first time at midnight (time: 12:00 AM) on August 31, 1957. Since then,
Merdeka Square has been the usual venue for the annual Merdeka
Parade (National Day Parade).
High Court (Chinese: 高等法院)
The High Courts in Malaysia are the third-highest courts in the hierarchy
of courts, after the Federal Court and the Court of Appeal. Article 121 of
the Constitution of Malaysia provides that there shall be two High Courts of
coordinate jurisdiction—the High Court in Malaya and the High Court in
Sabah and Sarawak (before 1994, the High Court in Borneo). Before 1969,
the High Court in Singaporewas also part of the Malaysian courts system.
National Art Gallery (Chinese: 国家艺术馆)
The National Visual Arts Gallery of Malaysia (Malay: Balai Seni Visual
Negara) was established on August 28, 1958, by Tunku Abdul Rahman,
the first Prime Minister of Malaysia. The gallery is also a statutory body
and an agency under the Ministry of Culture, Arts, and Tourism of
Malaysia. The gallery had changed its name to the National Visual Arts
Gallery since 2011 under the Akta Lembaga Pembangunan Seni Visual
Negara 2011. The gallery is situated along Jalan Tun Razak, on the northern edge of central Kuala
Lumpur. It is located next to the Istana Budaya, which is Malaysia's main venue for all types of
theatre including musical theater, operetta, classical concert and opera from local and international
performances.

National Monument (Chinese: 英雄纪念碑)
The National Monument is a sculpture that commemorates those who
died in Malaysia's struggle for freedom, principally against the Japanese
occupation during World War II and the Malayan Emergency, which
lasted from 1948 until 1960. It is located in the Federal capital, Kuala
Lumpur. The Malaysian Houses of Parliament is situated near the
monument.
Petronas Twin Towers (Chinese: 双子塔)
The Petronas Towers, also known as the Petronas Twin
Towers (Malay: Menara Petronas, or Menara Berkembar Petronas)
are twin skyscrapers in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. According to the Council
on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH)'s official definition and
ranking, they were the tallest buildings in the world from 1998 to 2004
until surpassed by Taipei 101, but they remain the tallest twin buildings in
the world.[2] The buildings are the landmark of Kuala Lumpur with nearby Kuala Lumpur Tower.
National Mosque (Chinese: 国家清真寺)
The National Mosque of Malaysia is located in Kuala Lumpur. It has a
capacity of 15,000 people and is situated among 13 acres (53,000 m2)
of beautiful gardens. The original structure was designed by a
three-person team from the Public Works Department - UK
architect Howard Ashley, and Malaysians Hisham Albakri and
Baharuddin Kassim. The mosque was built in 1965 on the site of a church, the Venning Road Brethren
Gospel Hall which had stood there since 1922 but appropriated by the Malaysian government.[2] The
mosque is a bold and modern approach in reinforced concrete, symbolic of the aspirations of a then
newly independent Malaysia.
Malaysia Tourism Centre (Chinese: 马来西亚旅游中心)
The restored Malaysia Tourism Centre (MaTiC or MTC) building is
endowed with a rich and colourful past. This English Cottage style
building was built during the 1930s to serve as the residence of a
wealthy Chinese tycoon named Eu Tong Sen. He was an influential
businessman in Malaya who served as a vice-president of the
Anti-Opium Society and a member of the Kinta Sanitary Board (Perak
State). After his death in 1941, this building housed the war office of the British Army. It then
became the headquarters for the Japanese Imperial Army during the Second World War.
