The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between online shopping environments, sales promotions, website quality and impulsive buying behaviour. A total of 548 valid and reliable questionnaires were collected from individuals in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia to empirically test the measurement and structural model applying a covariance-based structural equation modelling (CB-SEM) technique. The study sample includes experienced online consumers who shop for products and services via online retail platforms. Online impulse buying in the context of shopping environments, sales promotion, and website quality have not been profoundly explored in current literature, despite its important implication for academic scholars, business practitioners, and consumers alike. The results obtained imply that onli...

Based on the sedimentological data gathered from all of the outcrops, the depositional environment or paleoenvironment of the rock formations was studied to relate them to the reservoir quality. This work presents the detailed facies analysis of the Miri Formation and Lambir Formation exposed around Miri, Sarawak, East Malaysia. Outcrops of the Miri Formation and Lambir Formation around Airport Road, Canada Hill, Lambir Hill, and Miri-Bintulu Road were studied. Eight (8) lithofacies recognized in the Miri Formation include hummocky sandstone, interbedded sandstone-mudstone, herringbone cross-bedded sandstone, lenticular-bedded facies, bioturbated sandstone, trough and tabular cross-bedded sandstone, massive sandstone, and flaser to wavy-bedded facies. Facies analysis conducted in the Lambir Formation had identified five (5) main lithofacies whi...

Bio-based plastics are also sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives compared to petro-plastics, which are non-renewable and non-biodegradable. Food waste especially rice, which is rich in starch, has been considered as a potential feedstock for producing environmental friendly biodegradable plastic. By using rice starch to make biodegradable plastic to be able to help contribute useful things that may help in lessening garbage pollution. There are 3 different types of leftover rice starch film that had been test. The effectiveness of bio-based starch film is evaluated by two types of testing which is biodegradability testing and tensile testing. The result can indicate that leftover white rice have the higest of strength compare to leftover fried rice and leftover nasi beriani which had been made to bio-plastic. For the result of soil biodegradable test, its ...

The demand for smooth efficient transportation had been on the incline due to increasing urban community dependencies toward public transportation compared to other alternatives such as self-owned vehicle. This study identifies critical challenges associated with the last mile solution in our crowded city. Last mile solution models adopted in developed nations were evaluated and the identified best practices contributed to its end merits. By taking account of accumulated merits of each model, composite ideas gathered will be further factored into our own proposed idea of last mile solution. The study further considered any of the environmental impacts of the proposed idea, adding its feasibility in operating based on stated environment, crowded urban-city areas...

The use of this solution at Chemical Mechanical Planarization (CMP) process has resulted in the presence of ammoniacal nitrogen in CMP’s wastewater effluent. In view of new environmental pollution control, Malaysia Department of Environment (DOE) has introduced ammoniacal nitrogen as a new parameter to be regulated under Environment Quality (Industrial Effluents) regulations with maximum allowable concentration of 20 parts per million (ppm) effective from 1 January 2015. This paper focuses on evaluating cleaning efficiency of Buffing and Cleaning steps at CMP Oxide process. This is to formulate best chemical and cleaning recipe in minimizing ammonium hydroxide solution usage. The challenge to this change is to ensure the cleaning efficiency at post CMP Oxide process is not compromised. The authors have found that Buffing process has effectively removed almost all particles on wafer surf...

The project emphasize on simultaneous decision using analytical hierarchy process (AHP) at the conceptual design stage to assist designers in making the right decisions during the development process of products. The development of automotive fender was chosen as a case study to depict Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method is the best way in selection the best design concept. AHP is also used to identify the factors that influence the conceptual design. Besides that, Expert choices software is used for evaluation and sensitivity analysis the design concept. To demonstrate the proposed design concept selection framework, five different design concepts were considered. The results revealed that Design Concept 5, DC5 with highest priority percentage 28.5% is the best automotive fender design...

Through investing, excess fund can be multiplied. Stock exchange is where the best place to securely invest the excess fund available without the existence of fraudulent and scam. Along with growing of Islamic Finance, Shariah index has been introduced by Bursa Malaysia in the stock exchange on 21 st May 2007. With the existence of Shariah index, broad benchmark for Shariah-compliant investment has been provided. The general criteria is that, Shariah-compliant companies must not involve with activities deemed non permissible according to Shariah. The performances of stock exchange also represent the performances of economic activity in the country. However, the movement of prices in the stock exchange can be influenced by factors such as fundamental factors and psychological factors. Thus, The aim of this study is to examine how the prices movement of stock exchange is affected by fundamental factors....

Thirty male (n = 30), active university long jumpers were recruited as participants in this study. Participants performed one repetition maximum (1RM) squat, vertical jump, horizontal jump, 30m sprint, sit and reach flexibility test with the long jump performance. Pearson Correlation was used to determine the relationship between each test with the long jump performance. Results showed that all physical fitness tests were found to be significantly correlated to long jump performance with 1RM squat, horizontal jump and sit and reach flexibility tests were found to have high correlation while vertical jump and 30m sprint tests were found to have moderate correlation. Findings demonstrated the importance of physical fitness training to improve performance in long jump.

Within the Faculty of Resource Science and Technology (FRST) at Universiti Malaysia Sarawak (UNIMAS) students face difficulty to visualize on the composition of atoms or molecule due to complexity of the topics. Although, students can attend Chemistry labs, the usage of labs are insufficient due to lack of instruments and lab materials. Hence, it is always a challenge to deliver some Chemistry topics and students always feel difficulty on understanding some Chemistry subjects. We believe that simulation can fill this gap. However, how to model the Chemistry theory and develop the Chemistry simulation model is challenging. This paper introduces an Agent Oriented Modelling(AOM) and Netlogo for chemistry modelling and simulation. The AOM is investigated in Chemistry domain and the potential usage is reported. From the finding, the AOM can help the modeller to understand the Chemistry theory and conceptu...
