The prospective applications of a rectangular microstrip patch antenna (MPA) in energy harvesting at radio frequencies (EH). The study aims to develop a rectenna that can detect and connect low power wireless devices to long-term evolution (LTE) networks by capturing low-power radio frequency (RF) signals radiated by cell towers, since the Kappa 43

In recent years, Islamic financial institutions have experienced substantial growth, particularly in Asia and the Middle East, with a focus on financial innovation and the advancement of asset securitisation. This growth, crucial for the future development of Islamic financial institutions (IFIs), necessitates a robust regulatory framework and effe

This article explores the nuanced theories of societal decline offered by Ibn Khaldun, Arnold Toynbee, and G.W.F. Hegel, each providing unique insights into the mechanisms of civilizational collapse. Ibn Khaldun’s concept of Asabiyyah underscores the role of social cohesion in sustaining a society, arguing that its weakening leads to internal fra

Solar hydrogen production using a photoelectrochemical anion exchange membrane reactor is vital to reduce our dependence on fossil fuels. Anion exchange membranes use electrocatalysts based on low-cost earth metals. This paper provides a mathematical model to understand the influence of operating parameters on a photoelectrochemical anion exchange

This article provides a critical review of historical theories from the perspective of predicting the future, placing this within a broader framework of the philosophy of history. It engages the contributions of seminal thinkers, such as Hegel, Marx, Spengler, Toynbee, and Ibn Khaldun, to interrogate how historical philosophy offers predictive util

The academic performance of IIUM's Centre for Foundation Studies students, particularly those who are in the engineering program, continues to receive attention in the research community. However, there is a lack of studies that examine the simultaneous effects to the competency in mathematics and physics on their academic performance. This pap

A comparative leaf anatomy study was carried out on 10 taxa of Globba L. (Zingiberaceae) in Peninsular Malaysia to ascertain their systematic significance, especially for species differentiation and identification. Methods used include leaf clearing, leaf sectioning using a sliding microtome and observation under a scanning electron microscope. Res

Background: Post-extubation hypoxaemia and postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) are common in surgical patients and contribute significantly to morbidity and prolonged recovery. High-flow nasal oxygen therapy (HFNOT) has been proposed as an alternative to conventional oxygen therapy (COT) in improving oxygenation and reducing PPCs postopera

Indoor air quality (IAQ) greatly influences human health, comfort, and life productivity. Ships with confined spaces and limited ventilation demand more attention for a good IAQ due to the accumulation of indoor air pollutants (IAP) and the long time spent onboard. Nevertheless, studies have found ships recorded noncompliance with IAQ parameters to

This research investigates the challenges faced by Islamic banks in Bangladesh in delivering quality service and identifies the critical success factors (CSFs) needed to overcome those obstacles. Semi-structured online interviews were conducted with a purposive sample of 15 experienced bankers from Islamic banks across Bangladesh. Most participants
