The classical Perron–Frobenius theorem says that a trajectory of a linear stochastic operator associated with a positive square stochastic matrix always converges to a unique fixed point. In general, an analogy of the Perron–Frobenius theorem does not hold for a quadratic stochastic operator associated with a positive cubic stochastic matrix. N

In this paper, we consider a nonlinear protocol for a structured time-varying synchronous multi-agent system in which an opinion sharing dynamics is presented by non-autonomous polynomial stochastic operators associated with high-order stochastic hyper-matrices. We show that the proposed nonlinear protocol generates the Krause mean process. We prov

Additional of fibre in concrete creates fibre reinforced concrete (FRC) with an improvement of the mechanical properties of the concrete. However, additional of fibres in FRC has limited to 2% to allow normal mixing procedure. To address this issue, high performance fibre reinforced concrete (HPFRC) which is relatively new in construction industry

Depletion in Malaysia’s fossil fuels has caused the country to explore other potential energy source. Of all possible options, nuclear power has been considered the best. However, the plan for its implementation has been met with many challenges primarily within the issue of acceptance among public. This paper explores challenges of implementing

This paper aim to contribute to the body of knowledge on cyber terrorism, improves awareness of cyber terrorism definition, boundaries, potential targets, crime patterns and effective mitigation strategies through analysis of relevant literature on the issue produced in recent years. It details the definitional origins of the concept and It looks a

It has been widely acknowledged that waqf institutions play an important role in the socio-economic development of the Muslim Ummah in the Islamic history. This paper elaborates the contribution of selected waqaf entities in Turkey and Malaysia in improving the socio-economic conditions of the society. The waqaf entities involved in this study incl

Adsorption equilibrium is an essential measure to be controlled in attaining the maximum capacity of an adsorbent. Synthesis of magnetic biochar by using various discarded biomass possesses varied adsorbate adsorption capability. Maximising the removal percentage of the pollutant from wastewater by altering operational parameters are the very impor

Repair to conversational breakdowns is important so that mutual understanding between speakers can be restored. Strategies to repair may include but not limited to repetition of trouble source, addition or deletion. However, repair work requires speakers to be equipped with necessary linguistic and cognitive skills (Cho &Larke, 2011) which may

Introduction: Marital satisfaction is vital to the wellbeing and functioning of the individual and family. Marital dissatisfaction can lead to detrimental effects on mental, physical and family health. The study aimed to determine the proportion of marital dissatisfaction in outpatient setting and its association with sexual functioning and psychia

Objective: To prepare ibuprofen tablet without binder by direct compression method. Methodology: Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), attenuated total reflectance (ATR) and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)analysis were done to investigate ibuprofen stability during melting and solidification process as well as compatibility with mi
