Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRELATIONSHIPS AMONG INDICATORS OF FITNESS, FATNESS AND CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE RISK FACTORS IN ADOLESCENTSRobert Malina, Stephen-Mark Cooper, John Young et al.In adults, fatness and low cardiorespiratory fitness are associated with a higher prevalence of chronic disease risk and mortality. The association between measures of physical fitness and fatness upon cardiovascular risk in youth, however, is less clear. The effects of adiposity and physical fitness upon cardiovascular disease risk factors in youth are receiving increasing attention but studies that have examined … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 7 Aug 2012 · 8,118 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInformation Systems Development Knowledge Sharing-Organizational Justice, Physical Distance and Social InterdependenceMarzanah A. Jabar, Cheah Chee Yeong, Fatimah SidiProblem statement: Knowledge hoarding in Requirements Elicitation (RE) phase could lead to Information Systems Development (ISD) project failure. Many researchers have discussed important factors in knowledge sharing. Nevertheless, the success rate for ISD projects is low and there are other major factors for consideration.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Compression on the Acoustic Absorption of Coir FiberMohd Jailani Mohd Nor, Md. Ayub, Rozli Zulkifli et al.Problem statement: The absorption characteristics of coir fiber were analyzed previously. Analytical method to predict the acoustical behavior of coir fiber has already been developed. However, compression effects of coir fiber were not explored which might significant for acoustics absorption during seat padding. In this study, compression effect on the sound absorption characteristics of coir fiber are demonstrated based on … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,067 accessesView PDFCite
