This paper presents an optimization technique for wideband patch antennas using selective particle swarm optimization (SPSO). SPSO is an improved variant of particle swarm optimization (PSO). Here, a special part of solution space is selected for PSO process. An application of this algorithm is developed for wideband patch antenna optimization. A s

Islamic Jurisprudence is a branch of Islamic revealed knowledge with several dimensions such as the sources of Islamic legal theories, Maqāsid al-Shariah, the Islamic legal maxims and other Islamic fundamental principles. Contemporary Islamic scholars have argued that the principles of Islamic jurisprudence encapsulate significant paradigms of soc

Introduction: Perineural local anesthetic infusion also known as continuous peripheral nerve blocks (PNB), is a technique of providing analgesia for multiples days or even weeks by administrating local anesthesia via catheter following insertion of a catheter to peripheral nerve. The technique has been applied to different body regions for a wide r

The concentration of urine influences the concentration of urinary biomarkers of AKI. Whether normalization to urinary creatinine concentration, as commonly performed to quantitate albuminuria, is the best method to account for variations in urinary biomarker concentration among patients in the intensive care unit is unknown. Here, we compared the

Reclaiming cultural landscape is the idea of regaining the valuable heritage of human legacy that represent peoples’ identity and original culture of a group of people or place which cannot be replaced or regained after it has been destroyed. From Islamic point of view, cultural landscape presents the notion of revealing and sustaining the great

Quartz Crystal Microbalance (QCM) is a mass detection sensor capable of measuring mass sensitivity at nanogram levels when based on a thickness shear mode piezoelectric crystal set at high frequencies. These sensors detect with high accuracy while benefiting from simple geometry, low costs, and ease of fabrication. Researchers prefer piezoelectric

Abstract - Studies have shown that microfinance is capable of reducing poverty in rural areas in several countries around the world. Microfinance products are however, still dominated by conventional products despite a demand for shariah compliant microfinance products by Muslim clients. A survey conducted in Bangladesh found that even though Bangl

Surface sediment samples were collected from five stations covering 25 sampling points from the Langkawi coastal waters. Concentration of metals such as Zn, Cu, Pb, Cd, and Cr were determined using an Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS). The detected concentration range of Zn, Cu, Pb, Cd, and Cr were 41.02-137.1 μgg-1, 14.36-46.3

Multiple transmitters/receivers (TX/RX) are used to improve the quality of Free Space Optics (FSO) communication system. With the current needs of this technology for longer distance, the qualitative analysis of the system has become essential. In this work, the received power level (PR) and bit error rate (BER) are considered to determine the FSO
