Common engineering materials reach in many applications their limits and new developments are required to fulfil increasing demands on engineering materials. The performance of materials can be increased by combining different materials to achieve better properties than a single constituent or by shaping the material or constituents in a specific structure. The interaction between material and structure may arise on different length scales, such as micro-, meso- or macroscale, and offers possible applications in quite diverse fields. This book series addresses the fundamental relationship between materials and their structure on the overall properties (e.g. mechanical, thermal, chemical or magnetic etc.) and applications. The topics of Advanced Structured Materials include but are not limited to • classical fibre-reinforced composites (e.g. glass, carbon or Aramid reinforced plastics) • metal matrix composites (MMCs) • micro porous composites • micro channel materials • multilayered materials • cellular materials (e.g., metallic or polymer foams, sponges, hollow sphere structures) • porous materials • truss structures • nanocomposite materials • biomaterials • nanoporous metals • concrete • coated materials • smart materials Advanced Structured Materials is indexed in Google Scholar and Scopus.

Preface

This book Advanced Engineering for Processes and Technologies II provides a good platform for participating researchers and academicians to share their latest innovation, technology and research findings in the areas of marine engineering technology and applications, sea management as well as engineering education. It offers an opportunity for academicians of the Universiti Kuala Lumpur, Malaysian Institute of Marine Engineering Technology (UniKL MIMET) to exchange ideas and establish a professional network. There are more than 30 papers covering a wide range of topics related to technologies and education including simulation, intellectual discussion, environmental awareness, enhancement of knowledge and skills. The aim of this book focuses more on the numerous technological methods used for the establishment of engineering innovation and productivity through their competitive research findings and the exposure of their relative merits and limitations. The papers shared in this issue will enable other researchers to generate interest and novel ideas that can lead to the discovery of new engineering knowledge.

The Potential of Using Unmanned Aerial Vehicles for Sea Patrol: Case Study at Royal Malaysian Navy, Lumut Base Aizat Khairi and Ali ‘Izzat Sa’ari

Abstract This paper analyzes the potential of using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for sea patrol purposes at the Royal Malaysian Navy, Lumut base. Nowadays, there is a growing need for flying drones or unmanned aerial vehicles with diverse capabilities for both civilian and military applications. UAVs are utilized in carrying out a variety of operations including military tasks, search-and-rescue missions, reconnaissance, and load transportation. This study is using a qualitative approach by conducting an in-depth interview. Purposive sampling was applied by meeting with navy officers who are involved in UAV activities. The data is analyzed by the content analysis method based on the semi-structured question of the interview. As a result, there is a significant interest in the development of novel drones which can autonomously fly in different environments and locations and can perform various missions. In the past decade, the broad spectrum of applications of these drones has received the most attention which led to the invention of various types of drones with different sizes and weights. This study concluded that the potential of using unmanned aerial vehicles for sea patrol purposes, benefits in terms of the maritime sector, and challenges of the existing UAVs with various navigation and control approaches.

many assets (vessel) [1]—meaning that it is very costly due to the use of assets all the time for the enforcement. To do patrolling and surveillance the enforcement agency needs something that can operate at minimum costs, requiring less manpower, and less work. So, by operating unmanned aerial vehicles, it seems to have the potential to reduce in terms of operating cost, manpower, and time. Thus, this study is to explore the function of UAVs, to identify the benefits of UAVs, and to analyze the challenges of UAVs for sea patrol activities by the navy. This study has the potential to give benefits for a government based on an in-depth analysis of current research. UAVs and drones have same characteristic that is that they are unmanned [2]. But an UAV is more advanced in terms of its function to use for military purposes. By using the UAV, it can help to save costs in the defense sector. Other than that, it also helps to reduce the risk of life. The most important things are that it helps to save more time and it provides faster information. Therefore, UAVs can contribute to the defense sectors. The use of an UAV is a smart investment as it can save money, energy, and time. This study focuses on the Malaysian water area. It involves the officers of the Royal Malaysian Navy (RMN) at the Lumut area on the purpose of studying the potential of using unmanned aerial vehicles for sea patrol activities at the Malaysian water border. The scope of the study is about the functions, benefits, and challenges of the potential toward the usage of the UAV for sea patrol purposes [3].

1.2 Literature Review 1.2.1 Drones Versus UAVs In a general sense, these two things are the same, but the terms are used in different ways. Generally, a drone is any aircraft that does not have a pilot in it, whether it is operated by software or by a remote pilot [4]. The term UAV generally refers to any military aircraft operated without a pilot that can be reused. These are the rules to follow to use the correct term [5]: 1. 2. 3. 4.

French-speaking: drones; US and UK: UAS; International and other national aviation agencies: RPAS; on the Internet: UAVs and drones;

1.2.2 Functions of UAVs There are various functions of UAVs used by people, core implementation fields as shown below [6]:
