Effects of Simple Abrasive Combing and Pretreatments on Properties of Pineapple Leaf Fibers (Palf) and palf-Vinyl Ester Composite Adhesion
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Despite being mechanically and environmentally sound, pineapple leaf fibers (PALF) are of little use in Malaysia and the least studied for composite applications. In this study effects of abrasive combing and simple pretreatments on PALF and their adhesion to vinyl ester were investigated. In pineapple leaves, PALF are present in top lamina as larg

Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Objectives: A rapid immunochromatographic dipstick test (ICT) has become available for the qualitative detection of anti-Leishmania antibody using recombinant rK39 antigen. This study was carried out at the department of Microbiology of Rajshahi Medical College, Bangladesh, in order to evaluate the diagnostic potential of immunochromatographic dips

Zero Skew Clock Routing for Fast Clock Tree Generation
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

A Zero Skew Clock Routing Methodology has been developed to help design team speed up their clock tree generation process. The methodology works by breaking up the clock net into smaller partitions, then inserting clock buffers to drive each portion, and lastly, routing the connection from original clock source to each newly inserted clock buffers

Ever since the idea of federalism was mooted by the British, it has been a subject of intense discussion. The idea went through various stages of centralisation and decentralisation. Finally Malaya emerged as an independent state

Comparison of the Effect Structure on Ring and Linear Cavity Lasers of Erdoped Optical Fibers
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Two erbium doped fiber laser configurations are conceived and constructed; A ring fiber laser and a linear cavity fiber loop laser. A comparative investigation tests were carried out. It is found that both the output power and the side mode suppression ratio (SMSR) for the two structures were significantly different. The measured laser power and th
