Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesDEVELOPMENT OF OBSTACLE AVOIDANCE TECHNIQUE IN WEB-BASED GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEM FOR TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT USING OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARENik Mohd Ramli Nik Yusoff, Helmi Zulhaidi Mohd Shafri, Ratnasamy Muniandy, Islam Mohammad WaliThe shortest path routing is one of the well-known network analysis techniques implemented in road management systems. Pg Routing as an extension of Postgre SQL/Post GIS database is an open source library that implements the Dijkstra shortest path algorithm. However, the functionality to avoid obstacles in that analysis is still limited. Therefore, this study was conducted to enable obstacle avoidance … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 7 · 16 Jun 2014 · 6,931 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesEffects of Converting Secondary Forest to Oil Palm Plantation on Peat Soil Carbon and Nitrogen and other Soil Chemical PropertiesMakilan Muniandy, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. Majid, Mohd Khanif YusopProblem statement: Peatlands are natural sequesters of carbon and nitrogen. Once they are disturbed the tendency to lose carbon and nitrogen to the environment is very high. This study investigated the effect of converting peat land forest into oil palm plantation on soil chemical properties with particular emphasis on carbon and nitrogen storage. Approach: Soil samples were collected randomly at … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,302 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesIdentification of Major Cultivable Aerobic Bacteria in the Oral Cavity of Malaysian SubjectsKoshy Philip, Wuen Yew Teoh, Sekaran Muniandy, Hashim YaakobCulture dependent and culture independent methods have shown that about 600 species of bacteria inhabit the human oral cavity. While some oral microorganisms have a direct link to dental caries, periodontal disease and halitosis, opportunistic pathogens may be responsible for systemic diseases such as bacterial endocarditis, aspiration pneumonia, osteomyelitis in children, preterm low birth weight, coronary heart disease and cerebral … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,990 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesDetermination of Rheological Properties of Bio Mastic AsphaltR. Muniandy, H. Jafariahangari, R. Yunus, S. HassimDue to the high oil prices the price of asphalt binder has increased tremendously. This scenario has warranted demand for higher viscosity cheaper asphalt for pavement construction. A study was conducted to take advantage of the Empty Fruit Bunch (EFB) of Date and Oil Palm trees (which are considered as waste) to produce cellulose fiber to be used as additives … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 8,067 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesDevelopment of Criteria for Slab Compaction of Laboratory Roller Compactor (Turamesin)R. Muniandy, F.M. Jakarni, S. Hassim, A.R. MahmudLaboratory experiments should simulate to a high degree the conditions in the field, especially in term of compaction procedures. Presently available laboratory compaction methods do not seem to be able to produce specimens that can truly represent the mixtures as it exists in the field, especially for Stone Mastic Asphalt (SMA) mixtures. SMA is highly dependent on the method of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2007 · 7,118 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesThickness Analysis of Stone Mastic Asphalt (SMA) Slab Compacted Using a Newly Developed Roller CompactorR. Muniandy, F.M. Jakarni, S. Hassim, A.R. MahmudPavement mix design procedures and specifications are usually derived from laboratory experiments. Therefore, laboratory experiments should be able to simulate to a high degree the conditions in the field, especially in term of compaction procedures. Based on literature reviews and analysis of past studies, it can be concluded that there are no exact method for laboratory compaction that can simulate … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2007 · 7,476 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesLaboratory Diameteral Fatigue Performance of Stone Matrix Asphalt with Cellulose Oil Palm FiberRatnasamy Muniandy, Bujang B.K. HuatStone Matrix Asphalt (SMA) is a gap-graded mix that is gaining popularity worldwide. Generally, gap graded mixes are thought to be weak in fatigue resistance. In this study, cellulose fibers were pre-blended in PG64-22 binder with fiber proportions of 0.2%, 0.4%, 0.6%, 0.8% and 1.0% by weight of aggregates. The fiber-modified binder showed improved rheological properties and showed that the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2006 · 8,979 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesCost Comparison between Stone Mastic Asphalt and Asphalt Concrete Wearing CourseSalihudin Hassim, Rohimah Khoiriyah Harahap, Ratnasamy Muniandy et al.Stone Mastic Asphalt (SMA) technology has been introduced to Malaysia since the 1990’s. Since then, several trials had lain projects had been initiated for the purpose of evaluating the mix on local road condition. However, the acceptability of SMA is still quite discouraging among the local road authorities. This setback is probably due to the misconception on the high initial … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,015 accessesView PDFCite
