Lightning risk assessment for structure / Muhammad Ammar Sahimi
Get PDFThis paper presents the method of lightning risk assessment for the structure by using the Malaysian Standard. The aim of this study is to determine the risk for the structure located at rural area from lightning activity and to provide the suitable lightning protection measures in order to reduce the risk for the structure lower than tolerable risk. To achieve this aim, the following objectives have been identified: to evaluate the risk analysis for the structure using Malaysian Standard and to determine the suitable protection for the structure. In order to evaluate whether or not lightning protection of an object is needed, risk assessment in accordance with the procedures contained in IEC MS 62305
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
References of home buyers in purchasing strata property in Kuantan, Pahang / Nur Amiera Suhana Sahimi
Get PDFThe increasing demand for high-rise residential buildings and the decline in building values over time have led to a growing interest in the quality of property management services. This research aims to investigate the impact of quality property management on homebuyers' preferences and its effect on the purchasing rate of properties. The study focuses on the district of Kuantan, Pahang, where the occupancy of strata properties has remained relatively low despite their popularity in other capital cities. The problem statement highlights the importance of understanding factors influencing homebuyers' preferences for purchasing strata properties to tackle the high unsold unit rate in the area. The research objectives are to identify and rank the preferences of strata property among homebuyers in Kuantan. To achieve these objectives, a quantitative research method is employed with a questionnaire distributed to potential buyers and current residents of strata properties
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“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
