6 vi ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First of all I am thankful to Allah SWT, the All Mighty, Who gave me the courage and strength to complete this work and fulfill the requirement of BMM 4924 Final Year Project subject. I hereby particularly grateful to my supervisor, Mr Ahmad Basirul Subha bin Alias, for giving me the moral support and encouragement as to complete this piece of work. He was always kind and cooperative. I am also indebted to Prof Dr. Rosli bin Abu Bakar, Dean of Mechanical Engineering Faculty and my fellow lecturers for giving such knowledge and experience to me since day one in Universiti Malaysia Pahang. They have been my source of inspiration and encouragement in this project. My special thanks go to fellow research cliques, Mohamed Zaid Bin Mohamed Zakaria and Izzan Hairi Bin Mohd Ibrahim whose help me during the designing process of this project, without them my research probably cannot finish in time. I also want to thanks others that help me with or without my knowledge to finish this work. In the end, I acknowledge the role of my family in the accomplishment of this work. The prayers of my parents and support from my brothers and sister has made all this possible to achieve. Thank you.
