The conventional method of synthesizing carbon-based nanofluids produces harmful products that are highly toxic and hazardous. The present investigation deals with the effects of using eco-friendly, non-corrosive, covalent functionalized Graphene Nanoplatelets with gallic acid (GGNPs) as heat transfer fluid on energetic and exergetic performance of

The perceptions of the West about the Muslims have always been colored by their long history and bad blood between them, but the current misconceptions against Islam is not only fueled by popular ignorance and prejudices but also cultivated by some scholars through some subtle and not so subtle writing that have few words of praise but mostly raise

Financial reporting quality has been under scrutiny especially after the collapse of major companies. The main objective of this study is to investigate the audit committee’s effectiveness on the financial reporting quality among the Malaysian GLCs. In particular, the study examined the impact of audit committee characteristics (independence, siz

This is a technical note highlighting a method on how to perform averaging the elastic properties. The drawback of the traditional rule of mixture (ROM) is briefly discussed. The technique considers the effect of morphology based on classical continuum mechanics, taking the advantages of fracture mechanics. As an example, a model that simulates the

Aims: This study was carried out to further characterize fungal species that could degrade 3-chloropropionic acid (3CP)as sole source of carbon and energy. Methodology and Results: Both fungi were able to grow on 3CP after 10 days on solid minimal media. Based on sequencing of its segment of 18S rRNA these isolates were identified as Mucor sp. SP1

Islam advocates equality among all people regardless of race, gender, or nationality. However, Muslim women face numerous obstacles that stand in the way of their achieving their full potential in resource management. Certain interpretations of religious teachings and Islamic law, especially those to do with property allocation and divorce deny Mus

The paper specifically examines the pre fraud firms’ characteristics for over 3 years before fraud occurred. Selections of companies were made from Securities Commissions’ enforcement actions released between the years 2000 until 2008. A matched pair sampling was made with the control group, and 192 firms’ observations were made. Findings rev

This paper discusses about a technique on how to model austenite based on real a microstructure. The steps involved are: Sampling selection, Metallographic preparation, Picture taking, Digitizing the images, Creation of 3D-voxels from multiple 2D images, and 3D meshing technique. As an example, a unit cell of Austenite consisting 9 different consti

This chapter presents a country case study of waqf development in Malaysia. It begins with a brief history of waqf in Malaysia and then explains the governance system where administration of waqf is placed in the hands of each State Islamic Religious Council ('SIRC') of the respective states (13) and federal territories (3, sharing one coun
