The importance of automatic vehicle detection and classification has grown significantly in recent years, as it has become a crucial component of traffic management and monitoring systems. To overcome the limitations of traditional video vehicle detection, this paper proposes the use of forward scatter radar (FSR) technology. The FSR system is tested for the classification of four different vehicle types, each with distinct sizes. To improve the classification accuracy of the FSR system, the paper utilizes a well-established neural network known as a convolutional neural network (CNN). Two time-frequency analyses, continuous wavelet transform (CWT) and short-time Fourier transform (STFT), are used to evaluate the classification performance of the FSR system. The study demonstrates that the CNN classifier significantly improves the classification accuracy of the FSR system in vehicle detection and classification. This finding is supported by the evaluation of the time-frequency analyses, CWT and STFT. Overall, the proposed approach has the potential to enhance traffic management and monitoring systems, thereby improving road safety and traffic efficiency.

This paper explores the different morphological characteristics of residential neighbourhood spaces to understand the factors that constitute burglary crime risk in the area. The methods used for data collection include field surveys and Block Environmental Inventory. Meanwhile, inferential statistics, Geographic Information System and space syntax tools were used for data analysis. Findings indicated the influence of neighbourhood-built features on burglary crime and the vulnerability of areas to future crime risk. The analysis shows the spatial variation of crime risk factors across the study areas and how that shaped the understanding of burglary activities in the area. The study explores the influence of the permeability of grid iron layouts on vulnerability and explains high and low crime rates in the areas of Perumahan Mahsuri and Perumahan Sunway Tunas, respectively. Overall, the paper suggests further research to correlate these spatial explanations with the socio-demographics of the areas studied.

Island tourism initiative plays a significant role in uplifting economic activity for the island and local people. The equilibrium point of view between service providers and visitors is essential. Therefore, visitors’ perspective is crucial in understanding the need and requirement for establishment in tourist spots, including islands. This study examines visitors' perception of the study area through 3 main elements: activity, social and physical, comfortable, and natural beauty. The research design uses a descriptive analysis approach that uses a 5-point Likert scale, namely strongly agree (SA), agree (A), not sure (NS), disagree (D) and strongly disagree (SD). As for research analysis, the study used the SPSS program and specifically focused on frequency, mean, mode, median and level of agreement as to expected output. Preliminary findings indicate that visitors strongly agree that the area has the potential to be developed as a top tourism spot with minor improvement facilities and eco-tourism products.

Oil contamination can occur accidentally or incidentally in the environment as long as petroleum or shipping activities exist. There is a need to take appropriate preventive measures to reduce the negative impact by carefully monitoring the sprinkles and dispersion particles due to the oil spill movement. An expected oil spill originating from the Resak platform is positioned at 49.1 nautical miles from the Kuala Terengganu shoreline. The Dulang platform, positioned at 69.8 nautical miles from the Kuala Terengganu, can pollute the coastline of the Terengganu and Pahang ecosystems. This study aims; (i) make predictions from the direction of oil particle dispersion and; (ii) engage the ecosystem to determine the effect of an oil spill on a platform around the coastal area. The combination of the Geographic Information System (GIS) and the Oil Spill Trajectory Model (OSTM) has been used to establish the appropriate response to locate the dense area of the slick. The result from the model running show in Northeast (NE) monsoon season, Terengganu and Pahang, have a high potential to affect. It is highly likely to reach the Terengganu coast area, especially in Dungun. It was predicted that 466 barrels of oil would arrive within four days of the December incident. Moreover, Kemaman and Pekan districts in Pahang also have the highest risk of being exposed to oil pollution during the Northeast Monsoon. This is due to the wind factors, which blow from South to North along the East coast of Malaysia Peninsular with a speed maximum of 13 ms-1 and indirectly carry the oil particles to coastal areas in Terengganu and Pahang.

The Malaysian government is introducing a number of initiatives to try and reduce the effects of global warming. One of these is the road haulage industry, which contributes significantly as one of Malaysia's largest industries to the nation's effort to reduce its transportation emissions to 45% by 2030. However, the empty movement of trucks and improper transport planning by the management caused some delivery trucks to come back to the headquarters empty and did not fully utilise the space of the vehicles. Therefore, the researchers aimed to propose heavy goods vehicle (HGV) planning practice to solve the problems. This is a mixed-mode research paper in which data was gathered through interviews and estimated calculations. The data has been analysed by comparing the result of the simple estimation calculation with the operational cost and carbon emission. Based on the results, most of them agreed that by using the right strategy, operational costs and carbon emissions can be reduced. The researchers had introduced a few recommendations to enhance the firm’s transport planning practices that could contribute to the field of green logistics as well as the road haulage industry in Malaysia.

End of Life Vehicle (ELV) is a vehicle that has reached the end of it service life due to the age or condition of the vehicle itself that is no longer roadworthy. Several countries namely EU countries, Japan, Taiwan and South Korea have their own law and policy being implemented to deal with the disposal of ELV through recycling system management which includes the process to de-register, dismantling, depollution and recycling. However, since Malaysia do not implement such policy, the old and unused vehicles are just being abandoned by the roadsides and also housing area. Eventually, it will become a nuisance and eye sore to the public as well as impacting the environment and quality of life. The objective of this study is to examine the legislations and procedures adopted by the local authorities in dealing with these abandoned vehicles, to identify the challenges and to find solution in solving this abandoned vehicles issues. This research employed a qualitative methodology by analysing available legislations, conducting interviews with the enforcement officers from the selected local authorities. References to other jurisdictions were also made to learn a lessons from their practices. At the end of the research, it was found out that the current procedures being enforced through the limited powers given under existing provisions are unable to solve the increasing number of abandoned vehicles. Therefore, this research proposed law and policy to regulate End-of-Life Vehicles and amending the Street and Drainage Building Act 1974 to give absolute power to Local Authority to deregister the abandoned vehicles.
报废车辆(End of Life Vehicle,简称ELV)是指由于车辆本身的年龄或状况不再适合道路行驶而达到使用寿命的车辆。几个国家,即欧盟国家、日本、台湾和韩国,都有自己的法律和政策,通过回收系统管理来处理废旧汽车的处置,包括注销、拆解、去污染和回收的过程。然而,由于马来西亚没有实施这样的政策,旧的和未使用的车辆只是被遗弃在路边和住宅区。最终,它将成为公众的滋扰和眼疾,并影响环境和生活质量。这项研究的目的是审查地方当局在处理这些被遗弃车辆方面所采取的立法和程序,确定挑战并找到解决这些被遗弃车辆问题的办法。这项研究采用了定性方法,分析了现有的立法,与选定的地方当局的执法官员进行了面谈。还提到了其他司法管辖区,以便从它们的做法中吸取教训。在研究结束时,我们发现,目前的程序是通过现有规定赋予的有限权力来执行的,无法解决越来越多的废弃车辆。因此,本研究提出了规范报废车辆的法律和政策,并修改1974年“街道和排水建筑法案”,赋予地方当局撤销废弃车辆登记的绝对权力。

Carbon emissions from vehicles contribute significantly to carbon footprint production, which is one of the primary causes of climate change. In Caloocan City, increasing air pollution is observed despite the drastic decrease in air pollutants in major Metro Manila cities. This study primarily aims to provide strategies to reduce carbon dioxide emissions in Zapote St., Caloocan City, through a Comparative study on Urban Transport and the Environment (CUTE) Framework. The study identified that the hourly average carbon footprint contributed by private and public vehicles along Zapote Street is 686.27 and 243.71 kg CO2e on weekdays and 634.65 and 212.97 kg CO2e on weekends. The exploratory data analysis via Python shows that only the vehicle and fuel types affect the emissions volume. Accordingly, the Unified Vehicular Volume Reduction Program (UVVRP) was ineffective. It only resulted in additional private vehicles and increased congestion, indicating the need for an improved public transport system to encourage Filipinos to shift to public transport. Furthermore, the Traffic Volume Emission Projection (TVEP) model projects a decrease of 87.19 kg CO2e per hour in 2023 and 164.72 kg CO2e per hour by 2052, resulting from the 20% reduction in volume upon the implementation of the "no exemption of motorcycles" in the number coding scheme of Caloocan city.
汽车的碳排放对碳足迹的产生有很大贡献,而碳足迹是气候变化的主要原因之一。在Caloocan市,尽管马尼拉主要城市的空气污染物急剧减少,但空气污染仍在增加。本研究的主要目的是通过对城市交通与环境(CUTE)框架的比较研究,提供减少Caloocan市Zapote St.二氧化碳排放的策略。研究发现,Zapote街私人和公共车辆的小时平均碳足迹在工作日分别为686.27和243.71 kg CO2e,在周末分别为634.65和212.97 kg CO2e。通过Python进行的探索性数据分析表明,只有车辆和燃料类型会影响排放量。因此,统一车辆体积减少计划(UVVRP)是无效的。这只会导致私人车辆增加和拥堵加剧,表明需要改善公共交通系统,以鼓励菲律宾人转向公共交通。此外,交通量排放预测(Traffic Volume Emission Projection, TVEP)模型预测,由于Caloocan市在编号编码方案中实施“摩托车不豁免”,交通量减少了20%,到2023年和2052年分别减少了87.19 kg CO2e / h和164.72 kg CO2e / h。

In Kuala Lumpur and Penang City Centres, different built-up patterns have emerged based on the gazetted permitted development for the past few years. Since independence, Kuala Lumpur and Penang have experienced substantial growth and modernization throughout the years. Both cities have rapid growth despite the fact that the character of the cities has evolved in built-up patterns from bungalow and mansion settlements due to transporting tin from the mining area (Kuala Lumpur City Centre) into the golden triangle of Klang Valley; colonial areas and ancient shops due to resource transportation to the harbour (Georgetown) into UNESCO World Heritage Sites. There is development control, which is regulated to protect the distinctiveness of the city, including limiting its ability to grow and controlling the saturation of land. This demonstrates how these two city centres have largely concentrated buildings in Kuala Lumpur while Penang is maintaining its conservation plan. The research was conducted to observe the changes in development for both cities (1km radius) from 2015 until 2023 by using the method of overlay analysis between image processing and remote sensing data using the Geographic Information System (GIS) and the USGS Earth Explorer. This assessment is crucial in determining the saturated area, the pattern of built-up development, and the factor of development force.

This assessment is crucial in determining the saturated area, the pattern of built-up development, and the factor of development force.","PeriodicalId":38852,"journal":{"name":"Planning Malaysia","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78878987","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
Hoi An, Vietnam is a heritage town that offers many attractions and amenities attracting many domestic and international tourists. Along with the satisfaction studies conducted in Hoi An, the concern on how tourists’ expectations and experiences influence tourist satisfaction with destination attributes is not well explored. The present study determines the extent to which tourist expectations and tourist experiences affect tourist satisfaction with destination attributes; such as heritage attractions, price, people, tourist amenities, and safety. A quantitative research method was used to collect data from international and domestic tourists who had visited and stayed in Hội An, Vietnam for at least one night. Of the 275 responses received, 269 were usable. The findings indicate that tourist experiences with staff, safety, and tourist amenities had the biggest impact on tourist satisfaction in Hội An while tourist expectations did not significantly affect tourist satisfaction. This study also contributed to the strength of Hội An in the hopes that tourism stakeholders in Hội An will use these findings to take proactive steps to increase the competitiveness and attractiveness of Hội An.
越南会安是一个历史悠久的小镇,拥有许多景点和便利设施,吸引了许多国内外游客。随着在会安进行的满意度研究,对游客的期望和体验如何影响游客对目的地属性的满意度的关注并没有得到很好的探讨。本研究确定了游客期望和游客体验对游客目的地属性满意度的影响程度;比如文物景点、价格、人、旅游设施和安全。本研究采用定量研究方法,对在Hội, An, Vietnam至少停留一晚的国际和国内游客进行数据收集。在收到的275份答复中,269份是可用的。研究发现,在Hội中,旅游人员体验、安全体验和旅游设施体验对游客满意度的影响最大,而游客期望对游客满意度的影响不显著。本研究也有助于提升Hội安的实力,希望Hội安的旅游利益相关者能够利用这些研究结果采取积极措施,提高Hội安的竞争力和吸引力。
