Prediction of unsteady aerodynamic loads is still the most challenging task in flutter aeroelastic analysis. Generally the numerical estimation of steady and unsteady aerodynamic of thin lifting surface is conducted based on an integral equation relating aerodynamic pressure and normal wash velocity. The present work attempts to increase the accura

Muslim consumers are believed to be more concerned whether the current e-commerce processes are mixed with un-Islamic elements such as, riba (interest), gharar (uncertainty), and Maisir (gambling). To clarify the misconception, it is suggested that an assurance be given by a reputable Islamic religious authority to the effect that Internet seller c

Objective: To compare the dental age and chronological age of permanent teeth in children with hypodontia. Materials and methods: This was a cross-sectional study based on Orthopantomograms (OPGs) sample of children and adolescents of known age (6-14 years old), attended Dental Clinic of Paediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics at IIUM, Kuantan Campus

The ability of an organization to manage its environmental performance is emerging as a strategic issue for many organizations. Institutions of higher learning are no exception. Given that a university is a consumer of natural resources and a producer of waste (Flint, 2001), it is imperative that environmental cost information is made visible to th

The Qur’an is the basis of Islam and an intrinsic part of a Muslim life. It is a gateway to a new world, the strong rope that connects Muslims to their Lord, Allah, the Straight Path (al-Sirat al-Mustaqim) leading them to everlasting bliss and the backbone of their success in both existences, i.e. al-Dunya and al-Akhirah (here and hereafter). Sin

Electrocardiogram (ECG) based biometric matching suffers from high misclassification error with lower sampling frequency data. This situation may lead to an unreliable and vulnerable identity authentication process in high security applications. In this paper, quality enhancement techniques for ECG data with low sampling frequency has been proposed

Introduction: The objective of this study was to determine the relationship between clinical/socio-demographic factors with knowledge and attitude on sex among medical students of the National University of Malaysia (UKM). Methods: A cross-sectional study assessing 452 students using a self-administered questionnaire of knowledge and attitude was p

This study aims at developing a novel effluent removal management tool for septic sludge treatment plants (SSTP) using a clonal selection algorithm (CSA). The proposed CSA articulates the idea of utilizing an artificial immune system (AIS) to identify the behaviour of the SSTP, that is, using a sequence batch reactor (SBR) technology for treatment

Abstract— Various relationships between radar reflectivity Z and rainfall rate R commonly identified as Z-R relationships have been derived in order to provide better accuracy for rainfall rate estimation using weather radar. It is critical for the air traffic management at the airport to accurately detect existence of potential microburst and wi

In this paper, a simple and effective multibiometric technique for subject recognition using multiple lead electrocardiogram (ECG) signals is presented. The proposed technique significantly improves the recognition performance of a biometric system by using multiple sources available in the same modality group. A total of 30 subjects with 12 lead E
