Transportation plays an important role in achieving sustainable development. However, it has been regarded as one of the most arguable but least implemented concept in urban and transportation planning. The increasing dependence on private vehicles for various trip purposes has indeed put enormous pressure on the capacity of the road infrastructure

Jamiyah Singapore is a non-profit organization that aims to provide service to humanity by promoting missionary, education and welfare. Jamiyah Education Centre (JEC) is one of the organization’s pioneering project since 1970s. JEC provides Islamic education to all Muslims in Singapore ranging from pre-schoolers to adults. This study investigated

The sintering behavior of three different types of hydroxyapatite (HA) i.e. a commercial powder, HA(C), a synthesized powder by wet chemical precipitation method, HA(W) and a synthesized powder by mechanochemical method, HA(M) were investigated over the temperature range of 1000–1350 °C. It has been revealed that the sinterability and mechanical

This paper presents a technology for iron-making using biomass and a low grade iron ore by implementing chemical vapor infiltration (CVI) for the tar carbonization process. In this process, tar vapor from pyrolysis of biomass was infiltrated within a porous ore and carbon deposition occurred on the pore surface. For preparation, ore sample was heat

Media components such as wheat flour, MgSO4 and particle size were screened by Placket Burman design (PBD) while the operating range was fixed by one-factor-at-a-time method (OFAT), primarily for the enrichment of cassava peels as animal feed. Optimization of the selected media components was carried out using Face–Centered Central Composite Desi

The 152–156Sm isotopes are classified as deformed nuclei. The phenomenological model is presented to describe the complete low – energy of 152–156Sm isotopes by taking into account the Coriolis mixing between states. The parameters fitted to the model are calculated. The energy spectra of positive – parity states are found to be in good agr

The study was conducted to investigate the level of implementation of lean manufacturing (LM) in Malaysian automotive industry. A number of survey methodologies were utilized to ensure reliability of the results of this study. Thirteen areas have been identified as typical workplaces implementing lean manufacturing. The study also investigated the

This book analyses aspects related to capital and profit sharing in the equity-Hnancing modes employed by Islamic banks. Major topics covered include the signitlcance of existence and presence of capital at the inception of joint equity ventures, possibility of converting debt into capital, formation of equity ventures based on illiquid capital, th

During the COVID-19 pandemic many researches have been done about the use of predictive analytic systems (PA) to take administrative decisions based on meaningful information and to help in limiting the spread of the virus and to manage hospitals resources to be able to treat the huge number of patients who increase rapidly every day. Research has

Elements of both mudārabah (fund management) as well as shirkah (partnership) in Islamic law are reflected in the operation of investment accounts offered by Islamic financial institutions. A number of partners pooling their funds together for running a business operation is possible under shirkah. Similarly, mixing mudārabah capital with funds o
