The document discusses a case study on the feasibility of adopting piezoelectric tiles at Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) in Malaysia. It analyzes the airport and company data, reviews literature on technology adoption, and assesses the technical, environmental, managerial, institutional and financial factors of adopting piezoelectric tiles using the TEMIF framework. It proposes a three-phased strategy of initially renting then purchasing and installing tiles, and estimates the costs and energy generation capabilities. The study aims to examine factors that could foster piezoelectric tile adoption and identify strategies to accelerate its implementation at KLIA terminals.
This document proposes a new approach to speed up combinatorial search strategies using stack and hash table data structures. The method uses a temporary array to help generate combinations in each iteration. A stack is created to push the first parameter, and the algorithm iterates popping values from the stack until it is empty. Indexes of a combination array are set to the stack length and popped values. Hashing provides a more reliable and flexible method of data retrieval than other structures, and is faster than searching arrays or lists. This approach could speed up generation and search processes for combinatorial approaches.
The document discusses the piezoelectric effect and its application in footstep energy generation. It describes how Pierre and Jacques Curie discovered the piezoelectric effect in 1880. The effect generates electric charge in materials like quartz when subjected to mechanical stress. One application is installing piezoelectric sensors on pathways or in shoes to harvest energy from footsteps, which can be stored in batteries and used to power loads. A project in France has implemented this successfully to provide rural energy without dependence on other sources.

Sean Keegan's presentation discusses ground source heat pumps (GSHP) as a sustainable building and design solution. GSHPs utilize the stable underground temperature of 11-13°C to provide heating through pipes buried horizontally in trenches or vertically in boreholes. The system transfers heat from the ground to a water tank via an electric pump and can provide both heating and hot water at lower costs than traditional systems. While initial installation costs are high, GSHPs reduce utility bills by 15-50% and provide efficient, environmentally-friendly heating well-suited for new, well-insulated homes with features like underfloor heating.
Energy from moving train using wind turbinePankaj Singh
Pankaj Singh proposes installing wind turbines on the roofs of train coaches to generate electricity from the wind induced by the motion of the trains. Wind turbines would charge batteries mounted under each coach to power the train. J-shaped wind turbines are suggested because they can operate at high speeds, are lightweight, and can fit on trains. If implemented across India's rail network, the proposal could generate over 1 million megawatts of clean energy annually by harnessing wind from moving trains.
This document is a major project report on power generation using foot steps.

Offshore Wind Energy: Improving Project Development and Supply Chain Processe...Stavros Thomas
This project scopes to investigate, analyze and implement lean technologies and methods to improve project
development efficiency and provide cost reductions in offshore wind energy investments. Logically all products
and services in the wind power industry involve a supply chain structure. Some of these upstream entities
and activities located inside this multi-directional framework are completely independent-autonomous of one
another while some are interrelated. This process through manufacturing, distribution, installation and operation
creates waste in terms of process time, cost and quality of service. Lean principles-when implemented-work
together to identify, mitigate or even eliminate the waste produced during the life-cycle of a wind power project
and simplify the processes with the highest value and quality. Through a complete lifecycle analysis and under
the plethora of the integrated supply chain processes, this project focuses on developing innovative solutions
and procedures to optimise offshore wind plants installation, operation and maintenance (O&M) as well as
decommissioning-repowering. Finally a set of tools and methodologies to remove supply chain bottlenecks,
address the associated transport, logistics and equipment challenges and improve project management are also
presented. It has been shown that the wastes such as inventory costs and defects have been reduced which
improves the overall project feasibility.
Keywords
offshore wind — supply chain — lean management — portfolio management — project development

The role of technology transfer & cooperation for the development of wind pow...theijes
Sri Lankan power sector heavily depends on the import of fossil based energy sources and major hydro power plants. Considering the fact that Sri Lanka’s hydro power reserves have already been utilized, the country’s power sector highly vulnerable to price fluctuations in the imported fossil energy sources. Recent windmapping studies claim that the country possesses several areas estimated to have good-to-excellent wind resources. However, given such a backdrop, Sri Lanka is still lacking in its capability to maximize on the real potential of wind power based electricity generation. Accordingly, the objective of this research is to study the technology transfers and collaboration in the wind power sector in Sri Lanka and to identify a directional strategy to foster the development of wind turbine and components industry in the country. In order to effectively answer the stated research questions a qualitative approach was adopted. A comprehensive literature review followed by two case studies pertaining to the wind power sector in Sri Lanka were studied. The first case represented typical technology transfer approach in many developing countries, in which country acquired the wind technology through international trade. The second case is an example of technology licencing and study reveals that such integrations have subsequently created opportunities for more local value addition.

2. Functions of an International Airport
• Aerodrome
• facilities for domestic/international flights
management
• roles for customs and passport control (cargo,
logistics, passengers)
• commercial outlets for food, products and
services
• First gate for international passengers
3. Larger Airport = Consume enormous energy 24/7 365 days
= create negative socioenvironmental implications
(low air quality, GHG emission, energy depletion)
6. Solar Panels on

renewable energy, encouraging recycling, reducing water
consumption (Sustainable Report, 2015)
Data of MAHB
12. Data of KLIA
• The largest international airports in Malaysia
• Operates since June 1998
• Capacity to handle 25 million passengers per
annum.
• In 2015, KLIA handled total 22.6 million of
passengers
• In 2015, KLIA is ranked as the 13th busiest
airport in the world (Airports Council International 2016)
13. Literature Review of
Technology Adoption
• Up to date, the topic of technology adoption is
still largely dominated by the sociological
model of Roger’s (1962) Innovation Adoption
Lifecycle.
14. Literature Review of
Technology Adoption
• What seems lacking is the technology
adoption which is angled from management
and the organisational perspective.
15. Definition of Technology Adoption
• Enos and Park (1998): adoption is the
sequence of decisions made determining how,
when, where, and with what consequences a
technology is to be employed.
• Hall and Khan (2002): technology adoption is
the choice to acquire and use a new invention
or innovation.
16. Under-researched area
• Rogers (2003): there is still relatively little
efforts has been devoted to analysing
innovation differences, that is in investigating
how the properties of innovations affect the
rate of adoption.
• Hall and Khan (2002) “What factors affect the
rates at which the technology adoption
occur?”
17. TEMIF (Chew, 2012)
• Technical, Environmental, Managerial,
Institutional and Financial factors
• It is a decision making model which assesses
factors that can be considered for technology
adoption.
• Taking in both internal (organisational) and
external (macro) factors that need to be
considered for technology adoption along the
decision making process.
21. What are the Theoretical Problem of
Technology Adoption?
• Rosenberg (1972): in the history of diffusion, the overall
slowness and the wide variations in the rates of
acceptance.
• Hall and Khan (2002): diffusion is often characterised by
uncertainty and limited information.
• Dixit and Pindyck (1994): the adoption of new technology is
characterized by (a) uncertainty over future profit streams,
(b) irreversibility that creates at least some sunk costs, and
(c) the opportunity to delay.
• Hall and Khan (2002): an option value to waiting, that is,
adoption should be delayed until benefits are somewhat
above costs, thus providing another reason why diffusion
may be rather slow.
22. Research Methods
• 1st September 2014-30thJune 2016.
• The process started with the communication established between
the researchers and one of the General Managers at Malaysia
Airports Holding Berhad (MAHB)
• After 3 months, a call for technical proposal was answered and sent
to the General Manager for the company to review.
• After 3 months, we were invited to the MAHB main office located at
Sepang to present our research proposal.
• Since then, 5 series of focus group have been organised within 12
months. Data is accumulatively triangulated.
• Each of the focus group, small model of piezoelectric technology
designed by the researchers from Universiti Teknikal Malaysia
Melaka (UTeM) is presented. The additional information on poster
and videos are shared in order to guide the research process and
primary data collection.
23. Data Collection
• There are 2 categories of respondents.
• 8 senior managers where each of them was from different
departments + 6 technical professionals from different departments.
• A good blend that represented the snapshot of the organisation
particularly these departments would involve directly on the
suggestion of piezoelectric tiles adoption.
• They are experienced managers and knowledgeable technical who
are not only establish the organisation’s policies but also execute the
daily operations on business management or engineering.
• All of the group interview sessions were audio-recorded and then
transcribed carefully, reviewed by the respondents on the transcript
to construct a basis for reliable data analysis.
• All of their identities are anonymised with the representation of
Manager (to represent the senior managers) and Engineer (to
represent technical professionals).
24. Data Analysis
Yin (2009) Explanation Building
1. Devise a theoretical base proposition (TEMIF), which the researchers will seek
to test.
2. Undertake data collection through an initial case study in order to be able to
compare the findings from this in relation to this theoretically based proposition.
3. When necessary, amend the theoretically based proposition in the light of the
findings from the initial case study. Only the sub-factors are amended, while the
key factors of TEMIF were remained.
4. Undertake a further round of data collection in order to compare the findings
from this in relation to the revised proposition. This also justifies the need to
conduct subsequent focus group for data triangulation and verification.
5. Where necessary, further amend the revised proposition in the light of the
findings from the second case study.
6. Undertake further iterations of this process until a satisfactory explanation is
derived.
7. Meanwhile secondary data (company reports, websites, newsletters) were
used to triangulate the primary data to obtain more comprehensive information
and understanding of the responses.
