We will present novel modifications of the three-equation k-kL-u: eddy viscosity model proposed by Walters and Cokljat [1] for the adverse pressure gradient flows that occur on wind turbine blades and airfoils. The original model was based on the k-u: framework with an additional transport equation for laminar kinetic energy which allows the predic

Why firms tend to participate in social activities or act responsibly is one of the main concerns in the current literature. Based on the stakeholder theory and stewardship theory this study assumed that the government ownership play the stewardship role in the firm. Particularly, the main objective of this study is to examine if the government own

This study aimed to identify the properties as well as the application of Candida cylindracea lipase produced from palm kernel cake (PKC) by solid-state fermentation (SSF). Characteristics of PKC-lipase have been investigated which include: thermal stability, pH stability, stability in organic solvents and metal ions solutions. The enzyme assays we

Background: Student’s learning style preference is an important consideration for effective and high quality teaching and learning process.

Since the prevalence of smoking among Malaysian students is high, this study was designed to explore the perceptions and opinions of Malaysian Muslim st

Future applications of communication systems require higher data rates and more mobility. Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) can achieve these goals due to it is ability to reach high bit rates over fading channels as well as its efficient utilization of the bandwidth. However, the transmitted signal of OFDM suffers from high peak to
