Wireless Sensor Network for Landslide Monitoring
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

E very year all over the world many lives and properties are lost due to many geological catastrophes like, landslide or landslip. Manual and electronic monitoring systems are used for predicting the landslide. The m anual monitoring syst em is laborious and not practical. And most of the electronic systems are complex and expensive. A wireless sen

real-Time Bridge Scour Monitoring System by Using Capacitor Sensor
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Scour is the erosion of stream bed or bank material from bridge foundations due to flowing of water. Data logging from sens or and electronic communication systems can mo nitor scour in real - time to ensu re the integrity of bridge structure. A number of parameters are associated with scour, thus different types of sensor are required to measure t

The Potential of Biomass Waste in Malaysian Palm Oil Industry: a Case Study of Boustead Plantation Berhad
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The oil palm industry is known as the primary producer of biomass in Malaysia. The massive production of oil palm biomass has resulted in a significant waste disposal problem.This study aims to assess the potential of waste derived from oil palm plantationsand processing mills to be transformed into value-added products for various applications. Th

The 13th Malaysian General Election: Uncertainties and Expectations
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Malaysia held its 13th general election on May 5, 2013 which was a contest between two coalitions, the ruling Barisan Nasional (BN) and the opposition Pakatan Rakyat (PR). The latter's expectations for an outright win did not materialise. The election results have shown a rather status quo with minor losses and gains for the two coalitions. Thi

Service Value co-Creation in Research & Innovation Practices in Higher Education Institutions in Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In today’s knowledge-based society, research and innovations play a critical role in social and economic transformation. However, the higher education institutions (HEIs), which are the main hubs for knowledge generation, usually produce basic research, yet innovations are mainly carried out by the industry. Therefore, this study explores the ide

Crystal Controlled Cmos Oscillator for 13.56 Mhz RFID Reader
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

A design procedure of CMOS integrated crystal oscillator for 13.56 MHz RFID is described in detail by using mathematical and Mentor Graphics VLSI design tools ADK-3. The system is designed by using CMOS 0.18 µm foundry rules and Level-3 transistor model. The frequency stability of the oscillator is created by using piezoelectric crystal. The desig

A low-Cost pc-Based Range Finder System
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Now computerization is the most popular, reliable and flexible design for various types of control and communication systems. Sound navigation and ranging (SONAR) is a modern ultrasonic range finding technique used for collecting the information about a distant object without any physical contact. In this research work a PC based active SONAR syste
