The objective of this research was to obtain thermal performance data for reflective insulations in a South East Asia environment. Thermal resistance data (RSI, m2 K/W) for reflective insulations are well established from 1-D steady-state tests, but thermal data for reflective insulation in structures like those found in South East Asia are scarce.

In this research, the researchers attempt to illustrate the linguistic and terminological meanings of Sukuk. They also want to point out their importance in financing major projects. Additionally, they try to recall the role of Islamic Sukuk in the contemporary world. This role will be shown by comparing between Sukuk in Malaysia and Egypt. This re

It examines political change in Turkey under the leadership of Recep Tayyip Erdogan during his premiership from 2002 to 2014 in order to present the portrait of Erdogan as a political leader. The interactive approach was employed to structure this analysis. In line with this approach, external and internal resources on Erdogan’s leadership are ut

The advancements made to digital technology have enabled academic libraries today to digitize their collections as a continuing process of improving their services to the academic community. Various factors determine whether a library should embark on a digitization project and the extent of the digitization. These include the policy of the institu

Surface acoustic wave mediated transductions have been widely used in the sensors and actuators applications. In this study, a shear horizontal surface acoustic wave (SHSAW) was used for the detection of food pathogenic Escherichia coli O157:H7 (E.coli O157:H7), a dangerous strain among 225 E. coli unique serotypes. A few cells of this bacterium ar

Introduction: The use of electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) has become prevalent in many countries including Malaysia. Use of e-cigarettes has generated a lot of debates on its health effects and is a major public health concern. This study aimed to examine the use of e-cigarettes among Malaysian male adults aged 18 years and above in 2011 and 20

Magnetic field has been widely explored for its benefit towards todays development. In the early stage, the main concern was to develop a device that can detect magnetic field. Such device is called magnetometer. The advancement of technology has push the boundary even further, making a portable and robust magnetometer. Although the miniaturization

E. coli DH5α harbouring pET28a+ plasmid vector was lysed by alkaline lysis and the clarified plasmid solutions were subjected to ultrafiltration experiments using two types of ultrafiltration membrane; i.e., cellulose generated (Ultracel) and polyethersulfome PES (Biomax). Transmembrane pressures (TMP) through vacuum suction of 0.1 to 0.7 bar were

Military systems, outer space exploration and even in medical diagnosis and treatment used magnetic field detection. Low magnetic field detection is particularly important in tracking of magnetic. Traditional magnetometer tends to be bulky that hinders its inclusion into micro-scaled environment. This concern has brought the magnetometer into the t
