The Philosophy of Decoration in Islamic Architecture
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This book discusses the philosophy of decoration in Islamic architecture. The book, however, is not written from a pure architecture perspective. The nature of its studies is a philosophical or conceptual rather than a empirical one. The book is divided into five chapters. The first two chapters, namely “The Concept of Decoration in the Holy Qur&

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused unprecedented disruptions not only to our health and wellbeing but also to our socio-norms, economy, politics, culture and education, to name a few. Most countries that have been affected have taken drastic action by implementing a lockdown to flatten the curve of infection. The Malaysian government has imposed a Mo

Presence of Allelic Loss and Pten Mutations in Malignant Gliomas from Malay Patients
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) on several loci and mutations on PTEN tumor suppressor gene (10q23.3) occur frequently in sporadic gliomas. We have performed polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-LOH analysis using microsatellite markers and single-stranded conformational polymorphism (SSCP) analysis to determine the incidence of allelic losses on chromosom

Loss of Heterozygosity on Chromosomes 10q, 9p, 17p and 13q in Malays with Malignant Glioma.
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Recent advances in neuro-oncology have revealed different pathways of molecular oncogenesis in malignant gliomas including loss of heterozygosity on chromosomal regions harboring tumor suppressor genes. In the present study, we performed polymerase chain reaction-loss of heterozygosity (PCR-LOH) analysis using microsatellite markers to identify los

Improvement of Practical Control Method for Positioning Systems in the Presence of Actuator Saturation by Incorporating Fuzzy anti-Reset Windup
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The positioning systems generally need a good controller to achieve high accuracy, fast response and robustness. In addition, ease of controller design and simplicity of controller structure are very important for practical application. For satisfying these requirements, NCTF (nominal characteristic trajectory following controller) has been propose

Reynolds Averaged navier-Stokes Flow Computation of Rae2822 Airfoil Using gas-Kinetic Bgk Scheme
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In this paper, a gas-kinetic solver is developed to solve Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations in two-space dimensions generalized coordinates. The convection flux terms which appear on the left hand side of the RANS equations are discretized by a semi-discrete finite difference method. Then, the resulting inviscid flux functions are ap

Fabrication of Microcomponents by Injection Molding
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Miniaturization has been and will continue to be the trend of research and development. A number of microfabrication processes have been developed for the realization of three-dimensional microcomponents. Among these techniques, the micromolding process is one of the key technologies for low-cost mass production of sub-millimeter sized components,

Metal Removal from Industrial Wastewater by a Novel Carbon Nanomaterial.
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Recent application of nanomaterials as adsorbent for heavy metals removal has shown remarkable results which is largely due their mechanical and physical properties. In this work, feasibility of using novel carbon nanomaterials as adsorbent for the removal of copper, nickel and lead ions from an industrial wastewater by the adsorption process was i

External Fixation Versus Internal Fixation for Closed Unstable intra-Articular Fracture of the Distal Radius. Early Results from a Prospective Study
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This is a prospective study of a series of 26 patients with closed unstable comminuted intra-articular fracture distal end of the radius treated with two different methods of treatment to compare their anatomical and functional results. The external fixation group consisted of 12 patients and internal fixation group consisted of 14 patients. The an

Power to Decide on Development Applications Under the National Land Code 1965: the Position in Selangor
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Thia article addresses the general issue of over concentration of powers in land decision-making on the executive in the majority of states in Malaysia. The writer focuses on one of the mechanisms used to achieve this; namely through the administrative technique of delegation of powers. Statutes conferring administrative powers sometimes confer on
