Conceptual design for state control of a prosthesis finger / Abdul Halim Abdul Kadir @ Mat Isa
A prosthesis works as an aid to help recover some of the lost functions of an amputated organic limb. This study focuses on the conceptual mechatronic design of a laboratory finger prosthesis which resembles both the key physical features and the grasping functionality of a middle adult finger by means of a new specification techniques, i.e. Systems Modeling Language (SysML). SysML is a general-purpose graphical modeling language that supports the analysis, specification, design, verification and validation of complex systems. These systems may include hardware, software, data, personnel, procedures, facilities and other elements of manmade and natural systems. SysML can represent systems, components and other entities such as structural composition, constraints on the physical and performance properties. The conceptual design of the prosthetic finger which is geared towards four essential characteristics: (i) anthropomorphically accurate size, (ii) kinematically accurate motion, (iii) hybrid actuation mechanism, and (iv) tactile sensory feedback. The list below shows the type of the diagrams which has been made using the SysML program: I. Use case diagram II. Block definition diagram III. State machine diagram IV. Activity diagram V.

Sustainability performance, ownership structures, and corporate financial stability of shariah-compliant companies in Malaysia / Mohamad Azwan Md Isa, Norashikin Ismail and Mohd Halim Kadri
The launching of the United Nation’s SDGs Agenda 2030 in 2015 has boosted sustainability practices among the corporate sectors. Since then, the studies related to corporate sustainability practices and financial performance have gained extensive interest among researchers and academics. Nonetheless, studies on the association between sustainability performance (SUSP) and corporate financial stability (CFS) are still scarce and the results remain inconclusive. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the association between the SUSP and CFS focusing on the Shariah-compliant companies in Malaysia. In addition, this study attempted to investigate the moderating roles of different forms of ownership structures on the SUSP-CFS nexus. Using balanced panel data from 2021 to 2023, the Fixed Effect models as suggested by the Hausman test, indicate that the SUSP has mixed association with CFS. In addition, concentrated ownership has a negative but insignificant influence on the CFS whilst managerial ownership shows positive but insignificant influences on the CFS. In terms of moderating roles, concentrated ownership indicates a weakening effect on the SUSP-CFS association whilst managerial ownership poses a strengthening effect on the SUSP-CFS association. This study benefits the management of companies, investors and policymakers as well as enriching the body of knowledge on sustainability-financial stability literature. The corporate sectors need to sustainability practices through ESG initiatives in their strategic planning. The investors have to support the corporate sustainability practices by taking into account the sustainability factors in their investment decisions. Policymakers are to play more attentive roles in encouraging the corporate sectors in their sustainability practices by providing efficient infrastructure, robust ESG frameworks, and effective incentive packages. With these concerted efforts, the global SDGs agenda can be materialized successfully besides ensuring the financial stability of the Shariah-compliant companies in Malaysi
The influence of hand tool design on hand grip strength: A review.
Hand is made up of bones, tendons, ligaments, nerves and blood vessels that can be easily debilitated and injured if the hand tool is not design ergonomically. Recently researchers have examined the effects of individual, environmental and occupational factors on hand grip strength. However, information on the influence of hand tool design on hand grip strength is still lacking. The aim of this paper is to provide a comprehensive review of factors influencing hand grip strength focusing more towards hand tool design factors. The authors searched the journal articles, book and guidelines from the online databases of Google Scholar, Science Direct and Pub med. Fourteen factors includes handle diameter, handle length, handle orientation, handle shape, handle material, handle flange, handle inter distance/grip span, grip method, tool weight, tool center of gravity, tool sharpness, trigger type and size, spring stiffness as well as vibration exposure were found to have significant effect on the hand grip strength. This review identified that the handle diameter is the most significant factor for hand grip strength
