A wavelet-Based Approach to Testing Shari’ah-Compliant Stock Market Contagion:evidence from the Asean Countries
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Recently there has been a heightened global concern over ‘contagion’ in the conventional financial markets. Our study is motivated by the desire to test empirically whether this contagion is reflected in the fast growing Islamic financial markets as well. This study is the first attempt at testing whether there has been any contagion among the

Dry micro-Electro-discharge Machining of carbon-Nanotube Forests Using sulphur-Hexafluoride
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The effect of using sulphur hexafluoride (SF6), a high-dielectric-strength gas, for dry micro-electro-discharge machining (μEDM) of carbon-nanotube (CNT) forests is investigated. It is found that SF6 enables μEDM of CNTs without O2, which is known to be essential for CNT machining in N2. The process in the SF6 ambient at a discharge voltage of 25

Two Level Differential Evolution Algorithms for Arma Parameters Estimatio
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The problem of determining simultaneously the model order and coefficient of an Autoregressive Moving Average (ARMA) model is examined in this paper. An Evolutionary Algorithm (EA) comprising two-level Differential Evolution (DE) optimization scheme is proposed. The first level searches for the appropriate model order while the second level compute

µ-patterning of Carbon Nanotube Patterning of Carbon Nanotube (Cnt) Forest for MEMS Applications
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper proposes three new approaches for micro patterning of CNT forest in order to make it useful for MEMS based applications. The first two techniques are based on micro electro discharge machining (-EDM). However, the biggest problem associated with EDM is the spark gap which limits the structural resolution of the fabricated patter

A New μ-patterning Method for Carbon Nanotube (Cnt) Forest and its Remarkable Optical Transformation
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Vertically aligned Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) which are commonly referred to as CNT forests, have many potential engineering applications for its attractive mechanical, electrical, optical, and thermal properties. Patterning of CNT forests is very important to make them useful for different applications. Growing CNT forests selectively by chemical vap

post-Kala-azar Dermal Leishmaniasis with Mucosal Involvement: an Unusual Case Presentation Including Successful Treatment with Miltefosine
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Post-kala-azar dermal leishmaniasis (PKDL) is a dermatologic manifestation that usually occurs after visceral leishmaniasis (VL) caused by Leishmania donovani. It is characterized by hypopigmented patches, a macular or maculopapular rash and nodular skin lesions on the body surface. Involvement of the mucosae is very rare and unusual in PKDL. We re

Ownership Structure and Corporate Tax Aggressiveness: a Conceptual Approach
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Purpose – This paper proposes a conceptual framework for the study of the determinants of corporate tax aggressiveness in a concentrated ownership setting with an emerging capital market. Design/methodology/approach – The paper uses the theoretical approach in identifying the potential benefits and costs of corporate tax aggressiveness to devel

Heritage Studies & Measured Drawings of Masjid Diraja Sultan Ala'eddin, Banting, Selangor
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This work is one of the outcomes of AAR 3302 Heritage Studies, a core course that educates students to the understanding and practice of researching and documenting the heritage buildings in the Muslim world. The study on Masjid Diraja Sultan Ala'eddin, Banting Selangor was conducted in August 2020 and published in October 2020.2 CHAPTER 1 : IN

Effects on Mouse Spermatogenesis and Dna Fragmentation Following Exposure to Cyclophosphamide and Thymoquinone
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The potential of thymoquinone, an active component of Nigella Sativa, in lowering chemotherapeuticassociated toxicity of cyclophosphamide in the testis, epididymis and sperm DNA of adolescent male mice was investigated. Cyclophosphamide and thymoquinone were administered intraperitoneally by a single injection at 200 mg/kg and 10 mg/kg on alternate

Factors Associated with Dental Attendance Pattern Among Adults Attending IIUM Health Facilities in Kuantan, Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Background: There is a lack of evidence about dental attendance patterns among adults in Malaysia. Most studies focused mainly on adolescents, school children and antenatal mothers. Aim: This research aims to assess the pattern of dental attendance among adults in Kuantan, Malaysia and its associated factors. Materials and methods: This were a cros
