We propose and demonstrate a tunable S-band multiwavelength Brillouin/Raman fiber laser (MBRFL) with a tuning range of between 1490 to 1530 nm. The proposed MBRFL is designed around a 7.7 km long dispersion compensating fiber in a simple ring configuration, acting as a nonlinear medium for the generation of multiple wavelengths from stimulated Bril

This paper highlights the results of light levels and light-fastness study conducted in four daylit historical museum galleries in Malaysia. These museums architectural features allow sun radiation into the building, causing light exposure damage to artifacts. This study aims to evaluate the luminous exposures and light-fastness as an initial preve

In this paper, the steady mixed convection boundary layer in laminar film flow of a micropolar fluid is considered. The resulting nonlinear coupled ordinary differential equations are solved numerically using an efficient implicit finite-difference scheme. The numerical results obtained for the skin friction coefficient and the local Nusselt number

In this paper, the unsteady three-dimensional boundary layer flow due to a stretching surface in a viscous and incompressible micropolar fluid is considered. The partial differential equations governing the unsteady laminar boundary layer flow are solved numerically using an implicit finite-difference scheme. The numerical solutions are obtained wh

This research embarks on investigations for modelling and control of a two-wheeled wheelchair system as means of mobility for the disabled and the elderly people. The two-wheeled wheelchair is considered as a double-link inverted pendulum, and mathematical model of the system is obtained.

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
