The maqasid al-shari’ah does this by providing values and principles of good conducts, while medicine achieves thi

In this paper, active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) and a control method combining ADRC with input decoupling transformation (ADRC-IDT) are proposed to improve ride comfort of a non-linear full-car with active suspension system. Simulation of the model in frequency domain as well as time domain with three types of road profile – speed hump

In September 1906, Atiya Fyzee (1877-1967) from India and Zeyneb Hanoum (1883-1923) from Turkey embarked on European tours and described their experiences in a chronological order in Zamana-e-Tahsil (A Time of Education [1921]) and A Turkish Woman’s European Impressions (1913), respectively.

Since I completed my PhD at Portsmouth, I have undertaken a number of meaningful research projects and published many works with presses in the east and west. Had Bronwen and Alex been lenient with me regarding the quality of my work and had I navigated through my doctoral journey with relative ease, perhaps my PhD thesis would have remained the ma

Thermal dependence experiments have been carried out on silicon carbide Schottky power diodes. The devices were exposed to 3 MeV electrons with 10 MGy dose. Current density-voltage (~300 K to ~490 K) characterization have been used for the investigation. The results show that, at the highest tested temperature, the forward current density at 0.3 V

Although Bangladesh is one of the largest suppliers of interstate female domestic workers, most Bangladeshi female domestic helps work in urban and rural areas within the country. Dhaka, the capital and main city, has the highest concentration of female domestic service workers in the country. Compared to those Bangladeshi women who dare and manage

Aims/Objective: One of the impediments in overcoming hypertension is treatment failure caused by patient compliance in conventional medicine. Herbal remedies receive less defiance, and thus have been studied considerably. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of Piper sarmentosum aqueous extract (PSAE) in reducing blood pressure via endothelial

Language users often have difficulty in using appropriate verb inflections and modal auxiliaries to express factuality messages; messages that convey whether events are factual (Verb + s/zero inflection, e.g. He reads) or hypothetical in nature (Modal + Verb e.g. He will go).
