Antecedents for Actual Usage Intentions of Open Access Journals in Agricultural Research Institutions in Tanzania
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The purpose of this paper is to examine antecedents that predict researchers’ usage intention of Open Access Journals (OAJs) in Tanzania, with a specific focus on the Agricultural Research Institutes (ARIs). Specifically, the study investigates major predictors of usage intentions of OAJs. Data were collected from pilot study. A total of 60 (85.7

Mixed Convection Boundary Layer Flow Over a Horizontal Circular Cylinder in a Jeffrey Fluid
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In this paper, the mixed convection boundary layer flow and heat transfer of Jeffrey fluid past a horizontal circular cylinder with viscous dissipation effect and constant heat flux is discussed. The governing nonlinear partial differential equations are transformed into dimensionless forms using the appropriate non-similar transformation. Numerica

co-Prescription of Opioids with Benzodiazepine and Other co-Medications Among Opioid Users: Differential in Opioid Doses
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Purpose: This study investigated the patterns of opioid co-prescription with benzodiazepine and other concomitant medications among opioid users. Opioid dose in each type of co-prescription was also examined. Patients and methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted among opioid users receiving concomitant medications at an outpatient tertiary

Rise of Eclecticism in the 21st Century Malaysian Mosque Architecture
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

A stylistic survey of Malaysian mosque architecture shows four distinct trends: 1) Traditional style, which covers most of the mosques that were built before the countryâ€™s independence in 1957; 2) Colonial style that was influenced by Indian Mughal architecture, was followed partly after independence, and continued for a while after that; 3)

Numerical Solution on Mixed Convection Boundary Layer Flow Past a Horizontal Circular Cylinder in a Jeffrey Fluid with Constant Heat Flux
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper discusses the viscous dissipation effect with constant heat flux on the mixed convection boundary layer flow past a horizontal circular cylinder in a Jeffrey fluid. The transformed partial differential equations are solved numerically by using the well-tested, flexible, implicit and unconditionally stable Keller-box method. Numerical res

Mhd Jeffrey Nanofluid Past a Stretching Sheet with Viscous Dissipation Effect
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This study investigates the influence of viscous dissipation on magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow of Jeffrey nanofluid over a stretching sheet with convective boundary conditions. The nonlinear partial differential equations are reduced into the nonlinear ordinary differential equations by utilizing the similarity transformation variables. The Runge-K

The Influence of the Electrode Dimension on the Detection Sensitivity of Electric Cell–substrate Impedance Sensing (Ecis) and its Mathematical Modeling
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Detection sensitivity is a crucial criterion in the design and application of ECIS sensors. The influence of sensing electrode dimension on detection sensitivity is investigated in this paper. Eight types of ECIS sensors were fabricated, and their experimental results reveal that smaller-radius working electrodes generate more sensitive impedance s

Trends of Strong Opioid Consumption in Malaysia and Other Southeast Asian Countries from 2005 to 2014
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Background and aims It was reported that opioid consumption in developing countries was stagnated or decreased but precise data on the consumption are unclear. This study examined the trends and patterns of opioid consumption in Malaysia and other Southeast Asian countries. Methods Data of five strong opioids consumption (morphine, oxycodone, fenta

Allocation of Risk in the Oil and Gas Contracts in Malaysia: an Empirical Study
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Oil and gas projects are risky undertakings, which may cause severe damage to property and the environment, not to mention, personal injury and death to personnel. Contractual provision such as an indemnity and mutual hold harmless clause is used as a tool in allocating the risks. However, as a consequence of the private and government litigation a

On the Contractual Risk Allocation in Oil and Gas Projects
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper focuses on the contractual mechanisms that will help to achieve a fair allocation of risk between operators and contractors in the oil and gas projects. Companies that are actively dealing with a wide range of activities which engage volatile hydrocarbons are exposed to substantial risks and liabilities. In this regard, most of the petro
