In this paper we study the summability of the spectral expansions of distributions from the Sobolev spaces with negative smoothness. The results obtained lead to the development of new interesting research directions of the spectral theory of differential operators. The results can be applied in the regularization of solutions of the problems in En

The main goal of the current research is to implement Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) for the prediction of wave-induced motions and loads within the framework of 3D modelling. In this paper, the focus is twofold. First, implementation of possible additional terms to the standard incompressible SPH (ISPH) method with reference to generating/p

This paper attempts to explore the possibility of using Islamic real estate investment trusts (I-REITs) as one of the potential funding method for waqf assets development. This paper illustrates an alternative I-REITs model and mechanism to raise funding from capital market for Waqf assets development. This model is applicable to religious councils

Seed storage proteins (SSPs) are the most important component in rice which provides nutrient to consumers. The SSPs content and composition are among the important determinant for rice quality determination specifically for nutritional value. Multiple factors have been identified to give effect to the nutritional value of rice grain including diff

Background Infectious diseases are a great threat to humankind, and antibiotics are a viable proposition to numerous pathologies. However, antibiotic resistance is a global concern. Therefore, the aims of this survey were to explore the understanding and attitudes of pharmacy students regarding antibiotic use and resistance. Methods This is a cross

To assess the prevalence of depression, anxiety and stress and identify their associating factors among Kulliyyah of Dentistry (KOD), Kulliyyah of Allied Health Sciences (KAHS) and Kulliyyah of Sciences (KOS) students at International Islamic University Malaysia. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 476 volunteered students. Their s

A variety of disease processes can impact on the anatomy and function of the Ocular Surface. These can result in either simple, irritative symptomatology or more severe, incapacitating problems for the patient-resulting in sign icant morbidity and or loss of work efficiency and productivity. Such symptomatology can also be accompanied by changes in

We examine the effect of gender diversity and board monitoring (board size and independence) on bank efficiency. Using a broad panel of ASEAN-5 listed commercial banks over the period 1999-2012, we observe that gender diversity in bank board decreases cost and profit efficiency. This finding confirms our concern that the appointment of female direc

This paper presents a preliminary literature review on the prospects of reforms of the legal framework for construction dispute resolution in Nigeria. At the moment, the prevailing method of resolving construction disputes in Nigeria are litigation and arbitration which have caused series of delays in major construction works. This paper seeks to p
