After lunch, there is parrallel sessions divided into 3 groups which are Civil Engineering, Petroluem Geology and Mechanical Engineering. So, i am going for Mechanical one...hoho...
The first participant, Nazreen from Astronautic Technology (M) Sdn Bhd Malaysia is presenting the "small nozzles system applications for small satellite". "Thermo elastic analysis of melting steel carrier ladie by finite element method" presented by Shahrooi from UM. The session continue by Fazal with "effect of biodiesel on engine parts". It is very unlucky because some partcipants do not attend on their presentation such as the participant who is going to present "trends of air fuel ratio and crank angle on engine performance of four cyclinder direct injection hydrogen fueled engine".

BID just like devices that can used to measure and determine the motions of athlettes in sports field such as badminton (my favourite...hehe), soccer, swimming and sprinter. His speech is quite interesting. For the plenary session, i will just touch on one only which is the one i understand and amaze, "Modular power Extension Socket Outlet(MOST)" by Rodney Tan. MOST is a power extension which cascade each other using C13 female socket and C14 male socket. Its a improved power extension that you sure hope this product is on market.
