    Modelling and simulation of flux pinning of hi-tc superconductors performance
    (2015)
    Muhammad Ridwan Ahmad
    Superconductivity and its applications is no doubt a promising technology for the future. Its ability to provide endless possibilities of applications is a huge factor of why the study of superconductivity is important. Modelling and simulation of the data are done using MATLAB software. Throughout the thesis, the explanations regarding each of the model and simulation are discussed in order to understand better regarding the title. Each of the modelled data (graph) is explained based on the graph. Each of the graphs explains the superconductors' characteristics, and why did such behaviour occur. Comparison of graphs of sets of data are done in order to understand more and for clarity purpose. The implication of this study is that the readers will be able to grasp the fundamentals of superconductivity. The thesis is structured in a way that the readers will be provided with a basic understanding and then the results and explanation are presented.

    Inter-residential bus route planning for a newly development area using geograsphic information system (GIS)
    (2015)
    Gan, Yee Ee
    Geographical Information System (GIS) is a friendly, flexible data management software. This software is widely used in Civil engineering field, especially in Transportation planning and Town planning. In this project, the discussion will be focusing on Transportation planning as GIS plays an very important role in tracking, navigating, routing and scheduling vehicles, and other tasks. In this project, the newly develop areas are Bandar Seri Putra and Bandar Bukit Mahkota, Bangi. The main objective of the project is to recommend an optimal inter-residential bus service route for by using GIS. In order to achieve the objective, GIS is used to digitalise the raw data, analysize the optimal bus stops location and optimal bus service route by using ArcMAP. Therefore, this project can be taken as a conceptual design for the transportation planning in the selected areas.

    Design and construction of GPS based extremely low frequency (ELF) magnetic field measuring system
    (2015)
    Muhammad Amirulhakim Md. Ezzadin
    This thesis reports the design and construction of a global positioning system (GPS) based extremely low frequency (ELF) magnetic field measuring system. This prototype was developed based on research analysis and methodologies on development of the software and open-source Arduino microcontroller prototyping platform. The main goal of this project was to construct and design an ELF magnetic field measuring system which will be tagged with GPS data. This prototype will be used to measure the ELF magnetic field from overhead transmission lines. The main core of this system is an Arduino microcontroller platform. This microcontroller is connected with 3-axis magnetic field sensor, Arduino GPS Shield and Skylab GPS module. Output from the sensor will be used as an input for the microcontroller and the GPS will simultaneously receive the signal and save it into secure digital (SD) card. The system behaviour shown in flowchart design and Arduino coding based on the flowchart. Coding was simulated using open-source Arduino software integrated development environment (IDE). The data then is displayed in 3-D map showing magnetic field level in their respected areas.

    Microcontroller-base car security system
    (2015)
    Heng, Chin Wei
    This thesis discuss about implementation of microcontroller into vehicle system in order to improve the car's security system. The goal is to introduce Global Positioning System, Global System for Mobile and General Packet Radio Service into the vehicle to prevent auto theft. The scope of this project includes hardware and software configuration. The hardware chosen is based on the simplicity, effectiveness and stability. The software chosen are to fit the hardware requirement and solve the problem in the process of designing. Research and studies are done based on the available products in the market covering several types of car security products and hardware available on the market in order to perform the best results. Diagnose and troubleshooting needed to be done in order to further improve the error. The final phase of this project is done by collecting the results to meet the objective. By summarizing the project, the product prototype is developed so that user able to use it easily with high level security.

    Development of a home applanies electromagnetic signature detremenation system
    (2015)
    Sajid Saeed Hassan
    Currently a sharp supervision of electricity consumption is becoming more and more important. In the USA Domestic electricity prices increased by 40% since the past 9 years; its rising trend which is doubtfully will be reverse soon. In addition to the financial costs, the environmental difficulty related with the burning of fossil fuels is becoming gradually more damaging to the health of many species, as well as us. One of the cheapest and easiest ways to get better energy efficiency is to supervise one's electricity use through a sort of smart meter called a home energy monitor available for around 200us dollar. These demonstrate the whole-house consumption of power in instantaneous, letting the consumer to find out which of the appliances and the behavior consume the majority energy. Studies have verified that the feedback given by power monitors can allow consumers to decrease uses by 4 to 16 %. The USA's yearly CO2 production is likely to trim down by 6 million Tons, if each domestic client in the USA cut energy consumption by 11%. On the other hand the data demonstrated by house power monitors is not as practical as it should be. Studies has confirmed that disaggregate data illustrating appliance-by-appliance power usage is more efficient than aggregate information. Disaggregation was originally successfully implemented In the 1980s using complicated smart meters which offered a loaded, multi-dimensional raw sensor data. The major contribution of this project is to propose and implement then evaluating a system that can illustrate how to obtain the electromagnetic signature (spectrum) from devices that in a place of work or residence. Then from that info able to verify the usage of devices by knowing for how long it was functioning .Finally cut the energy consumption by trimming down the usage of the devices by switching it off.
