Fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS), magnetic-activated cell sorting (MACS), and CellSearch, which are conventional techniques, possess inherent limitations. For instance, the utilization of EpCam was ineffective in identifying specific malignancies. Cell sorting techniques have undergone significant advancements, with microfluidics being one of them. Regrettably, the current devices suffer from issues such as clogging and necessitate a lengthy main channel. Therefore, the goal of this work is to build and improve a microfluidic device with a tapered angle. There are three designs presented, each with one inlet, at least two exits, one focusing zone, and one tapering region. Using the finite element simulation software COMSOL Multiphysics, two studies are undertaken, the first examining the effect of taper angle on particle separation, and the second analyzing the effect of flow rate on particle separation. Based on the hydrodynamic theory and sedimentation process, this design allows particles to separate. When the taper angle approached 20 degrees, a mixture of 3 μm and 10 μm polystyrene microbeads were successfully separated, and separation continued until the taper angle approached 89 degrees. This technology offers simple, label-free, and continuous separation of many particles in a self-contained device without the use of bulky gear.\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000","PeriodicalId":55763,"journal":{"name":"Jurnal Teknologi","volume":"16 19","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141272832","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The analysis was carried out statistically by comparing the andesite fragmentation based on theoretical calculation method by Kuz-Ram model to the fragmentation based on image analysis method by Split Desktop which represents the actual field condition. The data were obtained from 30 blasting operations on andesite. The analysis result shows that the fragmentation based on the theoretical calculation using Kuz-Ram model is not significantly different from the fragmentation based on Split Desktop. The maximum error of percent passing predicted by Kuz-Ram model is around 7% with an average error of 4.94%. Based on the result, calculation using Kuz-Ram theory can be performed to predict fragmentation of andesite.","PeriodicalId":55763,"journal":{"name":"Jurnal Teknologi","volume":"8 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141273420","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The experimental outcomes serve as a foundation for broadening the application of phased array corrosion mapping (PACM) into elevated temperatures. The results offer intricate insights into velocity fluctuations within specific materials, correlating with temperature elevation. In summary, the suite of UT methods demonstrates their aptitude for employment during palm oil refinery operations up to 250°C involving carbon steel as well as 304 and 316 stainless steels.

The tests mainly focused on the particle size distribution (PSD), specific gravity, Atterberg limit, proctor analysis as well as the shear strength parameters from Unconfined Compression Test (UCT). Coherently, the vibro-replacement method was deployed within a small-scale laboratory approach as a prediction model for the construction of a group of crushed brick columns.

Hence, this study is aimed to gauge the possibility to discriminate authors according to their ethnicities by means of their handwritten numeral characters using a novel Geometric Morphometric (GMM) technique. Handwritten numeral characters collected from 30 individuals from three main different ethnic groups in Malaysia; Malay, Chinese and Indian were first digitised and landmarked using GMM software.

Significant differences (p<0.0001) were discovered in handwritten numerals characters 3, 4, 5, 7 and 9 amongst the three ethnicities when tested using Procrustes ANOVA, which signifying that it is possible to discriminate authors according to their ethnicities using their handwritten numeral characters.

Making high-performance concrete that has no cracks is a challenge. This research looks at the causes of these premature cracks and the impact of fly ash on these cracks. Observations were made on samples measuring 15 cm ´ 15 cm ´ 60 cm, 3 for HPC, and 3 for HPCfa with fc' 60 MPa. HPCfa is HPC where 10% of the binder is fly ash. One embedded strain gauge was installed on each sample at a distance of 5 cm from the sample. After the concrete was poured, the samples were covered with styrofoam for 24 hours and observations were made every 15 minutes. Data from 3 samples were processed using Dixon's criteria. The results showed that fly ash delays the peak heat of hydration by 4 hours, shortening the peak shrinkage duration to 30%, with a shrinkage value of 57% compared to HPC. Slowing down the occurrence of hydration peaks makes the concrete bond stronger so that it is more resistant to withstanding shrinkage peaks. The greatly reduced peak shrinkage duration means that the period of maximum suffering in young concrete is also shorter. The absence of fly ash means that the peak shrinkage does not immediately decrease because there is no osmotic pressure. Fly ash affects a hydration heat pattern similar to autogenous shrinkage (et). Both have a linear relationship Ht = 357216 et + C. The HPC similarity only reaches the peak of hydration.","PeriodicalId":55763,"journal":{"name":"Jurnal Teknologi","volume":"24 15","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141272924","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For that reason, it has become necessary to design an effective submarine position controller while achieving a fast and stable mission. An adaptive analytical scheme for the underwater submarine was developed. The main purpose of the adaptive analytical scheme is to provide a powerful analytical controller that can successfully steer the submarine from the current state under the water to the surface of water in a short time. To achieve that, a seventh-term exponential function was proposed to reshape the reference diving depth while maintaining the control variable limitation and satisfying initial and final boundary conditions. The direct search method with two cascade loops was employed to achieve a minimum cost function by determining an appropriate constant of the function and minimum final time. However, using the direct search method can be time-consuming since a number of algebraic operations are executed inside these two loops. Therefore, the curve fitting method was used to fit the set of direct search method data using power functions. Then, at a certain diving depth, the function coefficients were computed based on the final settling time and function constant using the Gaussian elimination method. A nominal numerical simulation of the submarine’s model was implemented using both adaptive analytical and linear controllers.

This paper presents a comparative analysis of different variants of the RSA cryptosystem, focusing on five specific cryptosystems: RSA, Somsuk-RSA, Modified-RSA (MRSA), Easy Simple Factoring-RSA (ESF-RSA), and Phony-RSA. The methodology involves evaluating the theoretical running time and memory usage through single-precision multiplication (spm) measurements, while the actual running time is estimated using Maple programming. The research has two primary objectives. Firstly, they examined each algorithm of the RSA variants and analysed them according to the proposed methodology. Secondly, to determine which cryptosystem consumes the most time and memory for key generation, encryption, and decryption. The results indicate that ESF-RSA and RSA are the fastest in terms of key generation, ESF-RSA is the quickest for encryption, and Phony-RSA excels in decryption speed.
