An Iteration Problem
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Let F stand for the feld of real or complex numbers, \phi : F^n\rightarrow F^n be any given polynomial map of the form \phi(x) = x + "higher order terms". We attach to it the following operator D : F[x]\rightarrow F[x] defined by D(f) = f-f\circle\phi, where F[x] = F[x_1; x_2; ...; x_n]- the F-algebra of polynomials in variables x_1; x_2;..

Paint Palette Used by Iranian Masters Based on Persian Medieval Recipes
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Classical Iranian literary sources contain valuable information with respect to materials and techniques related to the art of book-making, including pigments and dyes. Some of these writings have been composed in the form of mystical poetry which needs professional research into the language and classical terms used. Studying these primary sources

Maqasid, Social Responsibility and Islamic Investment
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In view of recent debates and trends in Islamic finance, this paper seeks to reflect the practice of Islamic investment in the light of the Maqasid as-Shari’ah (objectives of the Shari’ah). Specifically, it attempts to argue for the incorporation of broader social responsibility concerns in the screening criteria of Islamic investment practices

Conceptualizing a Strategic Framework of Social Responsibility in Islamic Economics
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In developing Islamic economics as a discipline, its proponents have emphasized on religious and ethical postulations of its economic agents as the essential micro-foundation towards the realization of its normative goals. Nevertheless, recent debates have highlighted the growing frustration on the failure of Islamic finance in addressing ethical a

Kinetic Studies on Recombinant Stem Bromelain
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Stem bromelain is a plant thiol protease with several industrial and therapeutic applications. This current work presents kinetic studies of recombinant bromelain (recBM) expressed in Escherichia coli BL21-AI on foursynthetic substrates, N-α-carbobenzoxy-L-alanyl-p-nitrophenylester (ZANPE), N-α-carbobenzoxy-L-arginyl-L-ar-ginine-p-nitroanilide (Z

Wall Thinning and Creep Damage Analysis in Boiler Tube and Optimization of Operating Conditions
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The boiler tubes are operated continuously at high temperature and pressure. During operation,scales are formed in boiler tube due to tube geometries, flue gas and steam temperature. The remaining wall thickness decreases due to the formation of scale which eventually causes failure of the boiler tubes. In this investigation an iterative technique

Performance Evaluation of Pv Module Using Water Filters and Infrared Reflective Glass Covers
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The Photovoltaic (PV) system converts only a selected band (0.35μm to 0.82 μm) of solar radiation to electricity. The absorption of radiation outside this band leads to a temperature raise of PV module which affects its performance. Experiments were performed to prevent radiation outside the selected to reach the PV panel using water filtersand d

0.35μm Spdt RF Cmos Switch for Wireless Communication Application
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In recent years, wireless communication particularly in the front-end transceiver architecture has increased its functionality. This trend is continuously expanding and of particular is reconfigurable radio frequency (RF) front-end. A multi-band single chip architecture which consists of an array of switches and filters could simplify the complexit

Electromagnetic Scattering Computation Methods for Very Small Spheroidal Dust Particles: Theory and Applications
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper discusses the effect of propagation of electromagnetic waves through a cloud of very small particles. The size of these particles is normally less than 0.2 mm in radius, much smaller than the microwave wavelength; therefore it is possible to avoid laborious computation by using approximations. In this work we have checked the Rayleigh th

Islamic Economics Education in Southeast Asian Universities: an Introduction
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

‘Islamic Economics Education in Southeast Asian Universities’ deliberates on an important, yet relatively neglected and under-written area in Islamic economics, i.e. Islamic economics education. In view of the importance of providing the necessary guidance in the integration and Islamization process in the discipline of economics, this book sta
