The second- and third-order azimuthal anisotropy Fourier harmonics of charged particles produced in pPb collisions, at sNN=8.16TeV, are studied over a wide range of event multiplicities. Multiparticle correlations are used to isolate global properties stemming from the collision overlap geometry. The second-order "elliptic" harmonic moment

Using data collected from urban households in the Klang Valley, Malaysia, this study examined the impact of household debt on urban household consumption decisions. The findings revealed that household debt does not generally affect consumption decisions, except in the case of expenditure on vacation, which tends to be reduced for households facing

Purpose: This study attempts to analyse the perceptions of social media users, particularly Twitter users, of social media marketing attempts by Indonesian Islamic banks. The perceptions of social media users are assessed based on the 7P marketing mix, namely: (i) product, (ii) promotion and education, (iii) price and other user outlays, (iv) proce

This paper represents a numerical analysis for heat transfer of a Jeffrey fluid flow past a stretching sheet with ohmic dissipation and suction/injection. The partial differential equations are reduced into a set of convenient nonlinear ordinary differential equations with the boundary conditions. Haar wavelet quasilinearization method (HWQM) is us

The key component in deep learning research is the availability of training data sets. With a limited number of publicly available COVID-19 chest X-ray images, the generalization and robustness of deep learning models to detect COVID-19 cases developed based on these images are questionable. We aimed to use thousands of readily available chest radi

Blue light protection ophthalmic lenses have been regularly marketed as the ultimate protection against short-wavelength visible radiation mainly in the range of 400 nm and 450 nm. However, the actual protective effects of such lenses are currently unknown; most claims are provided by the manufacturers with limited scientific validation. This will

Acanthaceae family has been used traditionally for medicinal purposes especially amongst the native communities in Peninsular Malaysia. It is also known as one of the potential plant families that can be used to cure diseases. Nowadays, many taxonomists have difficulties during the identification of the Acanthaceae species due to its morphological

By using the data collected from urban households in Klang Valley, Malaysia, this study tries to provide empirical evidence on the effect of household debt on married Malaysian couples on their marital satisfaction. This study wishes to extend the implications of household debt in Malaysia beyond economic concern per se. We found that household deb

Purpose: In line with the IFSB and BCBS methodology, the purpose of this study is to undertake a comparative analysis of dual banking systems for asset-liability management (ALM) practices with the duration gap, in Islamic Commercial Banks (ICBs) and Conventional Commercial Banks (CCBs). Based on the research objective, two research questions are d

Islamic commercial banks (ICBs) deal with a variety of risks, a pressing one being benchmark rates risk or rate of return risk (ROR). The purpose of this study is to measure the impact of changing benchmark rates on the net worth (NW) risk (i.e. economic value) of ICBs and conventional commercial banks (CCBs), with duration gap and stress testing a
