Design and Fabrication of Brushless DC Motor Driven Personal Electric Vehicle (PEV)
Full text linkThe author wishes to take the opportunity to express his utmost gratitude to the individual that have taken the time and effort to assist the author in completing the project. Without the cooperation of these individuals, no doubt the author would have faced some minor complications throughout the course.
First and foremost the author’s utmost gratitude goes to the author’s supervisor, Mr Azman Zainuddin. Without his guidance and patience, the author would not succeed to complete the project.
The author also highly indebted to most of the lecturers for their guidance and knowledge in providing necessary information regarding project and also their support to complete this project.
The author also would like to give gratitude to the technicians that helped in giving opinions and also helped in the project.
Last but not least, the author also not forgetting all friends and families for their big support whether in giving opinions, ideas and also moral support to author to complete the project
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used

DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF EXTERNAL POWERING SOURCE FOR AN ACTIVE RFID TAG
Full text linkThe work is about developing an external powering source of an active RFID tag. The objective of the project is to design and implement the external power source to the active RFID tag that will be embedded with heartbeat, temperature and blood pressure sensors individually. This tag will be attached to the patient so that it can send the information of each sensor to the reader that is connected to the computer. In order to extend the lifetime of the tag, author decided to use a rechargeable Lithium battery to replace the conventional method which was using a normal battery that can only stand for a few hours. This method was done by designing a prototype that consists of a circuit using voltage comparator and voltage regulator. A few types of batteries were selected and their performance was observed. The observation is based on the application, cost and flexibility. The developed prototype was tested and verified to ensure its smoothness operation and compatible with its application. Lastly, the result of the project will be analysed based on the efficiency and lifetime of the tag and to be compared with the present technology used on RFID tag
