There have been many sects throughout Islamic antiquity. To be contingent on an intellectual or sect as the basis for inaugurating a base for learning is deceptive. Other intellectuals and sects need to be deliberated as well. This development need consequently comprises an inclusive investigation of a variety of key suppliers to Islamic teachings
This study investigated the various factors that impede both the access to and use of the requisite financial resources for entrepreneurial development in Ilorin, Nigeria. Data was collected via a survey questionnaire administered on Muslim micro-entrepreneurs in the study area. A measurement model using the structural equation modelling approach w
This study explores the rhetorical organization of Islamic research article introductions based on Swales’ (1990) CARS (Create a Research Space) model. Based on the model, sixty Islamic research article introductions were analyzed in terms of the move structure and linguistic features that signal the use of the move. Findings show that most of th
This paper reports the design, implementation, and evaluation of a research work for developing an automatic person identification system using hand signatures biometric. The developed automatic person identification system mainly used toolboxes provided by MATLAB environment. . In order to train and test the developed automatic person identificati
The increasing bacterial resistance to antibiotics and the growing interest in human health have resulted into an increasing need for the exploration of both the essential oils and other plant extracts in the food and pharmaceutical industries. This work, as part of on-going work on the leaves of Nahar (Mesua ferrea) plant, was aimed at evaluating
In recent times, impellers have been designed and modified to combine unique hydrodynamic features to overcome redundancy during mixing. One of such impeller is the mixed-flow impeller which displays a unique combination of radial and axial flow. In this paper, the flow characteristic of a mixed-flow impeller is reported. The main focus is to compa
In this paper, the numerical modeling of alkali-catalyzed waste cooking oil (WCO) transesterification in a 2-L stirred tank reactor (STR) is discussed. Based on the Navier-Stokes equation, the liquid flow in the STR was resolved using unstructured, non-uniform mesh with the sst- κ-ω, κ-ε and RSM turbulent models. The PIV velocity data was used
A technique to monitor transesterification of waste cooking oil (WCO) is presented. The technique was developed based on analogue signal from WCO, fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) and commercial palm oil (CPO). A low-pass filter design for the photodiode was used to obtain the characteristic analog signal generated by these oil samples and the signal
The indigenous skilled man-power shortfall in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) is a known phenomenon. Efforts at tackling this problem have witnessed policy reforms targeted at human capital development via qualitative education at all levels. In the interim, the GCC countries rely on expatriates to fill the gap. This option may only work in the
