Agricultural products and trade play a vital role in human survival and economic well-being. With the advancement of management science, supply chain management has emerged as a sustainable management approach. In addition, it is observed that financial issues often pose significant challenges for agricultural enterprises, particularly small and medium-sized ones, acting as the last straw that breaks the camel's back. Therefore, the financial supply chain of agricultural product trade deserve...

One of the greatest practices in energy management is the Energy Storage System (ESS). ESS can be used for renewable energy control as well as peak shaving in the build-up of a Smart Grid. The cost of a lithium ion battery is more than 200 percent greater than that of a lead-acid battery, which is a significant barrier to project start-up. This paper discusses the use of a hybrid energy storage system that includes a lithium-ion battery and a lead-acid battery. This work presents the hybrid e...

The charcoal yield qualities at various exposure periods of 5, 10 and 15 minutes during 5 hours of carbonization with highest temperature of 800-900 oC were investigated. For 5 min exposure, the maximum temperat...

Excessive consumption of a high cholesterol diet (HCD) leads to the development of hepatic steatosis, and dyslipidaemia. Previous studies have showed that many types of fruit are rich in fibre, vitamins, and phytochemicals, which are able to lower lipid levels in the blood and alleviate hepatic steatosis. Pineapples have been reported to exhibit anti-oxidants, anti-toxicity, anti-obesity, and anti-hepatic steatosis activities. The aim of this study was therefore to investigate the effects of ...

The global construction industry lacks innovation and contributes substantially to world energy consumption and greenhouse gas (GHGs) emissions. The construction model in Thimphu, Bhutan, shares a similar narrative, plagued by inadequacies of conventional on-site practices using energy-intensive materials, often resonating implications to other sectors like housing construction and delivery. This study posits emerging mass timber construction (MTC) as an innovative alternative to Bhutan's arc...

This research is to study and analyze the interaction between humans and tsunami disaster models to create a virtual environment for tsunami preparedness. Under the framework of the theory of learning style through the three paths of perception: Visual Perception, Auditory Perception, and Kinesthetic Perception with a connection between humans and basic devices to create a virtual reality. Has an interesting story and easy to communicate Regardless of the virtual environment used for any type...

In general, NaNbO3 (NN) ceramics are considered to be one of the most promising lead-free perovskites (AFE) materials with low cost, low density, and non-toxic advantages. However, the energy storage capability of this material is often greatly hindered by the hysteresis exhibited during the transition from the antiferroelectric to the ferroelectric phase. In this study, the effects of doping with B-site complex perovskite compound in NaNbO3 ceramics on the crystal structure, microstructure, ...

Mahasarakham and Chrysopogon zizanioides. The polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons used in this study were anthracen...

As a result of coronavirus (COVID-19) epidemic, people have become actively involved in bodily sanitation. The “New Normal” lifestyle now focuses on cleanliness and disinfection to prevent the spread of germs. This research designed and programmed a microcontroller for a UVC disinfection system using an Arduino board as an open-source electronics platform operated by a motion sensor (PIR) and timer control module (RTC). The optical properties of an 8 Watt (W) UVC source were measured. The fou...

Data warehouse (DW) is a leading technology for Decision Support Systems, providing data structures that are useable for data analytics to support strategic decision-making by policymakers in various domains. DWs can be integrated with data mining techniques for forecasting trends based on the data in the DW. However, DWs usually store data in the form of a multidimensional schema, which is a significantly more complex data structure than in the traditional Relational schema. As a consequence...
