Particle Swarm Optimization of air-Launch Vehicle and Trajectory
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

A preliminary design optimization and trajectory optimization of air launch vehicle (ALV) are conducted using particle swarms. The optimization is conducted in three main steps. First, a mission analysis of ALV is performed using the required Delta-V predicted by trajectory optimization. The initial masses estimated are used for the preliminary ALV

The Effect of External Factors on the Students' Acceptance of Virtual Learning.
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The rapidly growing popularity of E-Learning has introduced new terms to education, as virtual learning. The success of a virtual learning environment (VLE) depends on a considerable extent of student acceptance and use of such an e-Iearning system. The current study introduces an overview of the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). Furthermore, it b

Virtual Learning Environment
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The concept of virtual learning environment (VLE) means more than website, it has several features that can enhance the education process, it is not necessary to be represented in distance learning, this concept is extended to enrich the education activities even in the classroom. The current research aims to explore the definitions of the VLEs in

Introduction to E- Learning
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The emergence of electronic learning (e-Iearning) has further facilitated the wide adoption of learner-centered education and other changes in educational practices. Such benefits of e-Iearning are reduced education cost, consistency, timely content, flexible accessibility, and convenience. The present study provides brief description of e-Iearning

Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The Peat Swamp: Productivity, Traficability and Mechanization has been written with emphasizing the fundamental engineering principles underlying the peat characteristics, importance of peat,peat environmental affect, determination of the mechanical properties of peat terrain, mechanization of peat based on the vehicle for highland, moderate peatla

A Comparison of the Thermo Physical Behavior of Engkabang (Shorea Macrophylla) Seed Fat - Canola Oil Blends and Lard
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

A study was carried out to compare the thermo physical behaviors of canola-Engkabang fat blends with those of lard (LD). Four blends were prepared by mixing canola oil with Engkabang fat (CaO:EF) in different ratios: EF-1, 75:25; EF-2, 70:30; EF-3, 65:35; EF-4, 60:40. The fat blends and LD were compared for their basic physico-chemical parameters,

Organizational Commitment Among Construction Professionals
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Construction activities are recognized as complex and typically involve various parties. Each party has own responsibilities which would contribute to a success of a construction project. Therefore, commitment of all parties is essential. Generally, commitment in the workplace influences organizational effectiveness and employee behaviour. Thus, co

Analysis of Chicken Fat as Adulterant in Butter Using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy and Chemometrics
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Butter may be adulterated with cheaper animal fats, such as chicken fat (CF). Thus, the detection and quantification of butter adulteration with CF was monitored using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, combined with chemometric of partial least square (PLS) at the frequency regions of 1200-1000cm–1. FTIR measurements were made on pu

Rain Fade Estimations for the x-Band Satellite Communication Link in the Tropics
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The X-band satellite communication (satcom) has been conventionally set aside for military and government organizations. It is also commonly known as the military band. The attributes of an X-band satcom hardware are expected to be designed specifically for military operations and they are expected to differ very much to those of commercial frequen

Influence of Islamic Work Ethics on Organizational Commitment Amongst Construction Professionals
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Islam urges all Muslims to perform well at work by giving full commitment to it. Religious behaviour plays a great influence in actual life which is beneficial to social and also to organizational development. This paper reviews the literatures on commitment in construction industry. The paper also explores the topics from Islamic perspectives part
