Concurrent Conceptual Design and Materials Selection of Natural Fiber Composite Products
This book covers topics related to developing natural-fiber composite products during the conceptual design stage in the product development process. It describes the concurrent engineering methods and tools applied in natural-fiber composite product development and discusses the major conceptual design activities, such as geometrical conceptual design development and selection, materials selection and manufacturing process selection. The book also includes case studies with illustrations on the related conceptual design aspects of developing natural-fiber composite products to provide designers with practical guidance on applying the selected tool for their project.
Western Chant
When a dikir barat singer is invited to perform at a circumcision ceremony in a remote coastal village in Kelantan, Malaysia, things take an unexpected turn in the normally quiet fish market. Mak Cik Maryam is called to investigate a baffling double murder, and the motives must be untangled and the guilty identified. Maryam‘s own life is in grave danger when she and Mak Cik Rubiah delve deeper into this world of secrets. Join Mak Cik Maryam in her sixth adventure assisting the Kota Bharu Police Department, or vice versa, in Western Chant, the latest in the award-winning Kain Songket Mysteries series. Western Chant is the sixth in Barbara Ismail’s series of Kain Songket Mysteries based in Kelantan.
Spinning Top
Makcik Maryam and Rubiah once again investigate murder in a small Kelantan town. Someone has been killed at a top-spinning contest, hit by a gasing, a heavy metal spinning top, that had no business flying as it did according to all laws of physics. Malaysia’s most famous female amateur sleuths suspect not only foul play, but black magic, and are determined to rid Kelantan of the source of evil. Join them in their fifth adventure assisting the Kota Bharu Police Department, or vice versa, in Spinning Top, the latest in the award-winning Kain Songket Mystery Series.
Green Biocomposites
This book addresses different aspects of green biocomposite manufacture from natural fibres and bioplastics, including the manufacturing procedures and the physical, mechanical, thermal and electrical properties of green biocomposites.

Current developments in selecting the natural ...
USING OXFORD SMART CHOICE MULTI-ROOM TO DEVELOP THE STUDENTS' LISTENING ABILITY
Abstract The objective of the research aims to investigate whether or not the use of CALL (Computer Assisted Language Learning) with Oxford Smart Choice Multi-ROM as an audiovisual learning software can develop the listening ability of the tenth grade students of SMA Negeri 1 Model Parepare. The research applied quasi-experimental design. The population of this research was the tenth year students of SMA Negeri 1 Model Parepare in school year 2013/2014. The total number of population is 411 students and two classes of twelve classes were taken as sample by using cluster random sampling. The findings of this study as the effect of Oxford Smart Choice Multi-ROM to develop the student’s listening ability, as shown by t-test value (4.6) that higher than t-table value (2.000). It means that the listening ability of the tenth grade students of SMA Negeri 1 Model Parepare develop significantly after they are taught by using CALL (Computer Assisted Language Learning) with Oxford Smart Choice Multi-ROM. Keywords: Student’s ability, CALL (Computer Assisted Language Learning), Oxford Smart Choice Multi-ROM, teaching listening.
Kenaf Fibers and Composites
Kenaf fiber is gaining attention as an alternative reinforcement for composite products due to low cost, reduced environmental impact, and attractive mechanical properties. Kenaf Fibers and Composites covers the breadth of these exciting materials, from raw material preparation to application in a variety of products. It discusses fiber characterization and properties, how to prepare kenaf-based composites, and design, manufacturing, and applications. It also covers hybrid fiber composites, kenaf fiber thermosetting composites, kenaf fiber thermoplastic composites, kenaf fibers in various lengths, and forms and arrangements such as particulates, continuous roving, and woven fabrics. Cellulose-based kenaf composites and kenaf fiber-filled biopolymer composites are presented.
