Design, analysis and fabrication of manual food slicer machine / Muhammad Fareed Johari
Full text linkFood preparation is an important part in food industry. Not only that, but many people in every house also tend to have a safety problem and says that it is time consuming if we used only a knife to cut and it is hard to handle for some certain people which not really good in kitchen. Therefore, the purpose of this project is to design, analyse and fabricate the manual food slicer machine. Most of the food processor is imported and of course it is costly. For this project, the manual food slicer machine will be able to apply for fresh food such as vegetables and fruits. The development of this machine begins by identifying problems that occurs to people who have problem in kitchens. Then, studies on the food processor that available in market which are directly related are next in line. Then, the machine is design based on the concept adapted from the problems faced. Next, careful material selection process begins to make sure the material used is safe for user and easy to be washed. Next process is which comparison of different type of slicer machines are done and followed by data collected from the survey that have done. After that, in Final Year Project 2, the process of fabricating is done for 14 week

Green innovation, resource price and carbon emissions during the COVID-19 times: New findings from wavelet local multiple correlation analysis
No full textThis paper investigates how oil price, COVID-19, and global energy innovation can affect carbon emissions under time- and frequency-varying perspectives. We contribute to the literature by being the first research to document the relationship between these variables in the short and long run (dynamically) at different frequencies in a multivariate context, thus providing a more detailed picture of the forces driving CO2 emissions. For this purpose, we use a novel methodology, i.e., the wavelet local multiple correlation (WLMC) recently developed by Polanco-Martínez et al. (2020). The results provide fresh evidence of long-run asymmetric dynamic correlations, highlighting how the oil price plays a key role in the dynamics of CO2 emissions. Moreover, we find that, during the long period, there is a strong negative co-movement between CO2 and the global energy innovation index, i.e., more investment in clean energy induces less emission. Supported by our findings, this research suggests crucial policy implications and insights for the governments worldwide in their efforts to revive their economies amidst the pandemic and environmental uncertainties
English language reading comprehension of Pakistani HSSC/HSC level students: performance and perceptions / Madiha Rehman and Muhammad Fareed
Full text linkEnglish is taught as a compulsory subject from grade one to graduate level in Pakistan. It has also been given the status of the official language and is also considered a symbol of status. Good English language skills open up avenues to have access to high-ranking jobs both in the public and private sectors in Pakistan. Despite the importance of the English language in Pakistan, teaching the English language requires more focus and research. Even though reading skill is the most focused English language skill in the Pakistani school education, students face difficulties in reading comprehension. As English language reading skills are considered intricate, hence they require considerable time and practice to develop. Reading skills are important both for academic and professional purposes and the ability “to read” involves more than just decoding a text. Keeping in view the importance of reading comprehension skills, this research was designed to explore perceptions of HSSC/HSC students and teachers about teaching reading comprehension skills. This study also tested the reading comprehension skills of the selected HSSC/HSC students from the Federal Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education (FBISE) and the Board of Intermediate Education Karachi (BIEK). The sample of this study were 60 students - 30 from each board, and all (4) English language teachers of the selected college. Quantitative data for this study were collected through reading comprehension tests and qualitative data were obtained through focus group interviews from the students and HSSC English language teachers. The quantitative data were analyzed by using SPSS version 24 and thematic analysis for qualitative data were carried out as suggested by Saldana (2013). Although, The Findings revealed that students of the FBISE performed better than students of the BIEK in reading comprehension test, but, the perceptions of students unveiled that the performance of students was highly dependent on their interest to read the books, the content of their prescribed books, teachers’ guidelines and the vocabulary bank. The English language teachers added that students’ performance is not only dependent on their thirst to seek knowledge and their approach to read books but also students’ performance varies due to the content of the syllabus books and assessment of reading comprehension skills at the HSSC/HSC level
Design, analysis and fabrication of manual food slicer machine / Muhammad Fareed Johari and Raja Muhammad Aslam Raja Arif
Full text linkFood preparation is vital in the food industry and in domestic use. Common problem faced by people in preparing food using a normal knife is usually regarding the safety issue and time consuming. Therefore, the objective of this project is to design, analyse, and fabricate the manual food slicer machine that intends to solve the problem. Using the imported food processor is not viable to many people due to the expensive cost. Hence, in this project, the manual food slicer machine is designed and fabricated to aid food preparation especially for vegetables and fruits. The development of this machine began by identifying problems that occur to many people in terms of food preparation. Then, market research is conducted to study the existing product. After that, the machine is designed based on the concept adapted from the problems faced. The material is picked carefully to ensure the hygienic and safety concern to the user. The fabrication processes include drilling, cutting, and fitting took place for almost 8 weeks. The result from the demonstration showed that the product assists the user significantly in terms of safety and quantity while performing the food preparation

Decomposition rate of leaf litter between the protected and unprotected mangrove areas / Muhammad Fareed Zafri Mohd Salehin
Full text linkThe decomposition rate of leaf litter between the protected (KKWRS) and unprotected (UiTM Sabah) mangrove areas were investigated during this study by using litter bags, where visibly both areas had different level of solid waste pollution where the unprotected area (UiTM Sabah) had high level of solid waste pollution. This study was conducted from March 2019 until July 2019. The mangroves species that was used in this study is Rhizophora mucronata, where the species is the dominant species in both mangrove areas. This study also focused on the factors that affect the decomposition rate of leaf litters, which are the soil organic matter and soil pH. Line transect and quadrat sampling was used to collect the soil samples and checked the soil pH. The leaf litter decomposition rate showed that the protected area (KKWRS) had faster decomposition rate compared to the unprotected area (UiTM Sabah). Soil organic matter and soil pH were higher at the unprotected area (UiTM Sabah) compared to the protected area (KKWRS). There is no correlation between both the soil organic matter (SOM) and soil pH to the leaf litter decomposition rate within the protected (KKWRS) and unprotected (UiTM Sabah) mangrove areas. In conclusion, both SOM and soil pH have no effect on the leaf decomposition rate within the protected (KKWRS) and unprotected (UiTM Sabah) mangrove areas
