On Some Dynamic Systems Arising in Lattice Models with Competing Ternary Interactions
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The lattice models on a Cayley tree with competing interactions has recently been studied extensively because of the appearance of nontrivial magnetic orderings [1]. In the case of the Ising model on the Cayley tree of second order with competing binary nearestneighbour interactions J and binary prolonged second neighbour interactions Jp Vannimenus

Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This article attempts to highlight some recent developments and issues in the sukuk market, especially in the light of the AAOIFI Shari`ah pronouncement of February 2008. In general, the market tends to understand and expect sukuk to be within the “fixed income” types of investment with minimal or controlled risks and capital preservation featu

Developing a Muslim Response to the Western Criticism of the Prophet Muhammad
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The Western approaches towards the Prophethood of Mu╒ammad (peace be on him), from the early Middle Ages to the present time, have been critical and hostile. He was depicted as a demon or a Christian heretic or a madman. Those critics however changed their tone particularly with the downfall of the Ottoman Empire. This change of Western writers�

Technology Transfer: Challenges and Prospective Arab World as a Case Study
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In the 21st century more than ever, technology is the driving engine behind civilisations. Technology level has become an indicator of advancement and living standard. No county whatsoever can lead and prosper without owning and developing technologies locally. The first step in the take off will be to transfer the available technologies. With the

A Comparative Ride Performance and Dynamic Analysis of Passive and semi-Active Suspension Systems Based on Different Vehicle Models
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Vehicle models used to evaluate performance and dynamic behaviour are either discrete models, which includes quarter, half, and full car models, or continuous models using finite element modelling. In this work our focus will be on discrete models, which have more popularity with ground vehicle analysts owing to their shorter computational time and

Analysis of semi-Active Suspension Systems for four-Axles off-Road Vehicle Using half-Model
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Handling and ride quality are affected by many factors, including high-frequency vibrations, body booming, body roll and pitch motion, vertical motion by the suspension system and frequency vibration transmitted from the road input excitations. This article focuses on the most significant vibration source that affects handling and ride quality, whi

Transient and Steady State Dynamic Analysis of Passive and semi-Active Suspension Systems Using half-Car Model
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Several control policies of semi-active system, namely skyhook, groundhook and hybrid controls are presented using a half-car model, as a continuation of the previous work on quarter-car model. Their ride comfort, suspension displacement and road-holding performances are analysed and compared with passive system. The analysis covers both transient

A First Course in Control Systems
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Control system is one of the most important subjects in engineering that crossed the borders between many disciplines. Essential knowledge of the subject became a must after the rapid development in technology that made controls everywhere in all devices used in everyday life. It is our effort in this textbook to present a concise and clear textboo
