Formulation and Evaluation of Pva/peg peel-Off Mask Containing Rich Fraction of Centella Asiatica and Cucumis Sativus Extract for anti-Ageing
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Premature ageing can be seen through the formation of wrinkles and altered pigmentation earlier than it should be. Due to premature ageing and high demand for a mask that can dry faster with easy application, peel-off mask can be used to solve the problems due to its ability to remove dead skin cells and able to treat premature ageing with the addi

Prevalence and Predictors of Pediculosis Capitis Among Female Primary School Children in Kuantan, Pahang
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Introduction: Pediculosis capitis has been a worldwide concern among the vulnerable population of primary school children due to the physical, economical and psychological consequences that it brings to both the children and their caretakers. It is observed that there were only limited studies conducted in Malaysia and no previous study was done in

Fiscal Decentralization and Convergence in Government Spending in Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In this study, we highlight the influence of the federal system on the development expenditure of the states, which is crucial for socio-economic development. First, we examine whether there is a convergence in development expenditure across Malaysian states. Second, we investigate the importance of decentralization in affecting the pattern of deve

A Review on Kenaf Fiber Hybrid Composites: Mechanical Properties, Potentials, and Challenges in Engineering Applications
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The developments of agricultural-based composites for structural applications such as in construction, aerospace, and automotive have gained tremendous interest from researchers due to the uniqueness of its behaviors. Among available agricultural fibers, kenaf fiber widely adopted as a reinforcement in polymer composites to form kenaf reinforced po

Proposed Development Models of Islamic Movements in Post Reformation Indonesia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This article tries to analyze the models of Islamic movements in post-reformation Indonesia. The major research problem posed is to highlight the main theoretical underpinnings of the momentum of reformation and its impact on various movements, particularly the Islamic ones. The focus here is to explain how these Islamic movements have developed st

The Role of Relatedness in Student Learning Experiences
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

: Failure in addressing students’ needs in the context of student learning experiences may lead to negative impact on the image of higher education. Framed in self-determination theory, this study examined students’ relatedness on most satisfying experiences in their respective universities. Participants’ (N=1974) responses to open-ended ques

Abdominal Obesity and high-Sensitivity c-Reactive Protein Level Among Malay Obese Adults in Kuantan, Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Introduction: Abdominal obesity and inflammation are two independent risk factors for cardiovascular disease. However, the inter-relationship between these two factors among Malay population is fragmented. The purpose of this study is to determine the association between waist circumference as a measure of abdominal obesity and high-sensitivity C-r

Gain Scheduled Integral Linear Quadratic Control for Quadcopter
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The findings of this paper are focused on the dynamics and control of a quadcopter using a modified version of a Linear Quadratic Regu-lator (LQR) control approach. The classical LQR control approach is extended to include an integral term to improve the quad copter tracking performance. The mathematical model is derived using the Newton-Euler meth

Estimation of Stability Derivatives in Newtonian Limit for Oscillating Cone
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Stability derivatives in Newtonian limit for an oscillating cone are obtained. Stiffness derivative decreases with pivot position for the entire range of cone angles. For cone angles in the range 20 to 30 degrees there is substantial increase in the stiffness derivative. Damping derivative decreases with pivot position for various cone angles and a

Motivational Approach to Lifestyle Modification Intervention on Cardiometabolic Risk Profiles Among Obese Adults: a Randomized Controlled Trial
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Background: Lifestyle modification intervention (LMI) is effective in promoting cardiometabolic risk (CMR) reduction. However, the current standard LMI for obese adults in Malaysia has only a periodic review. Hence, this study aims to determine the effect of LMI with a motivational approach on CMR profiles among obese adults. Methods: This is a ran
