Kueh, Roland Jui Heng,Majid, Nik Muhamad,Ahmed, Osumanu Haruna,Gandaseca, Seca Institute of Forest Science 2016 Journal of Forest Science Vol.32 No.3
The loss and degradation in tropical forest region are some of the current global concern. Hence, these issues elevated the role of rehabilitated forests in providing ecological products and services. The information on the carbon stock is important in relation to global carbon and biomass use, but lacking from the tropical region. This paper reports the assessment of tree and soil carbon stock in a chronosequence rehabilitated tropical forest stands in Malaysia. The study site was at the UPM-Mitsubishi Forest Rehabilitation Project, UPMKB. $20{\times}20m$ plot was established each and assessed in 2009 at 1-, 10- and 19-year-old sites while an adjacent ${\pm}23-year-old$ natural regenerating secondary forest plot was established for comparison. The overall total carbon stock was in the order of 19-year-old>${\pm}23-year-old$>10-year-old>1-year-old. When forest carbon stock is low, the soil component plays an important role in the carbon storage. The forest carbon recovery is crucial to increase soil carbon stock. The variations in the carbon stock showed the different stages of the forest recovery. Species survived after 19-years of planting are potential species for carbon sequestration activities in rehabilitated forest. Human intervention in rehabilitating degraded forest areas through tree planting initiatives is crucial towards recovering the forest ecological role especially in forest carbon stock capacity.

A face recognition based on Regularized LDA is presented. The recognition performance is demonstrated in Matlab using face database of Intelligent Control Laboratory (ICONL). The algorithm attempts to address the SSS problem using a regularized Fisher's separability criterion. The simulations are conducted which identified the test samples as belonging to the same subject of those of trained subject of the ICONL face database. In addition, the recognition performance is compared to the recognition performance of the original PCA which are demonstrated in the paper. The main idea of the paper is to demonstrate the proposed method is particularly robust against the SSS problem compared to the traditional LDA and the simulations results show that the proposed algorithm improves the robustness of the recognition performance compared to PCA.

A newly proposed FR (Face Recognition) approach with a weighted regularization parameter based on the conventional R-LDA (Regularized Linear D iscriminant A nalysis) method was presented in this paper. SSS (Sm all Sample Size) problem refers to the total number of training samples is less than the dimension of face feature space and all the scatter matrices of LDA are singular. Therefore, it is impossible to apply the LDA algorithm to the FR. In this paper, it was attempted to optimize the revised Fisher's criterion with a weighted regularization parameter as a solution of the SSS problem. Simulations using ORL (Olivetti Research Lab) database in MATLAB were simulated in order to evaluate the recognition performance of the proposed FR. In addition, the recognition performance of the proposed approach was compared to the ones of the well-known conventional methods such as Eigenfaces and R-LDA, which were established in this paper.

This paper reports the assessment of tree and soil carbon stock in a chronosequence rehabilitated tropical forest stands in Malaysia. The study site was at the UPM-Mitsubishi Forest Rehabilitation Project, UPMKB. 20×20 m plot was established each and assessed in 2009 at 1-, 10- and 19-year-old sites while an adjacent ±23- year-old natural regenerating secondary forest plot was established for comparison. The overall total carbon stock was in the order of 19-year-old>±23-year-old> 10-year-old>1-year-old. When forest carbon stock is low, the soil component plays an important role in the carbon storage. The forest carbon recovery is crucial to increase soil carbon stock. The variations in the carbon stock showed the different stages of the forest recovery.

Impact resistance efficiency of bio-inspired sandwich beam with different arched core materials

Impact resistance efficiency of the newly designed sandwich beam with a laterally arched core as bio-inspired by the woodpecker is numerically investigated. The principal components of the beam comprise a dual-core system sandwiched by the top and bottom laminated CFRP skins. Different materials, including hot melt adhesive, high-density polyethylene (HDPE), acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), epoxy resin (EPON862), aluminum (Al6061), and mild carbon steel (AISI1018), are considered for the side-arched core layer of the beam for impact efficiency assessment. The aluminum honeycomb takes the role of the second core. Contact force, stress, damage formation, and impact energy for beams equipped with different materials are examined. A diversity in performance superiority is noticed in each of these indicators for different core materials. Therefore, for overall performance appraisal, the impact resistance efficiency index, which covers several chief impact performance parameters, of each sandwich beam is computed and compared. The impact resistance efficiency index of the structure equipped with the AISI1018 core is found to be the highest, about 3-10 times greater than other specimens, thus demonstrating its efficacy as the optimal material for the bio-inspired dual-core sandwich beam system.

The article examines the impact response of the sandwich beam furnished by a novel bilayer core as inspired by the woodpecker’s head architecture under different repeatedly exerted low-velocity impact loadings by employing the finite element package, ABAQUS. The sandwich beam forms four essential parts comprising bottom and top carbon fiber reinforced polymer laminates encasing bilayer core made of laterally arched solid hot melt adhesive material and aluminum honeycomb. Impact loadings are implemented repeatedly with a steel hemisphere impactor for various impact energies, 7.28 J, 9.74 J, and 12.63 J. Essentially, the commonly concentrated stresses at the impact region are regulated away by the arched core in all considered cases thus reducing the threat of failure. The sandwich beam can resist up to 5 continual impacts at 7.28 J and 9.74 J but only up to 3 times repeated loads at 12.63 J before visible failure is noticed. In the examination of several key impact performance indicators under numerous loading cases, the proposed beam demonstrates favorably up to 1.3-11.2 higher impact resistance efficacies compared to existing designs, therefore displaying an improvement in repeated impact resistance of the new design.
