protein-Solvent Interaction and Simulation Studies of Solvent Stable and Thermostable Lipase from Bacillus Strain 42 in water-Solvent Mixtures
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

A purified solvent stable and thermostable recombinant lipase, Lip 42, isolated from Bacillus sp. strain 42 was previously shown to be stable in polar organic solvents such as dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and methanol. Stabilities in different solvent compositions were studied based on 40˚C pre-incubation in solvent and the purified lipase was shown

Urban Heritage Conservation Through Redevelopment Strategies: a Case Study of Kuala Lumpur
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Towns in Malaysia are rich in built heritage from colonial days and the symbiotic existence of Chinese and Malays, which dominated urban areas. The nostalgic combination of old and new quaintly describes our towns. On the other hand, pressure for redevelopment is increasing in the face of fast-changing, ominously globalizing world today to create a

The Contribution of the Faculty of Engineering in Islamizing Engineering Studies
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Islamization as an idea is not a mere process of engagement rather a dynamic and ongoing school of thought; hence, Islamized engineering is a value-laden enterprise and a process reconceptualization. Islamized engineering sciences will generate diverse insights different, to certain a extent, from western conception of engineering. It will connect

Affording Accessibility for Disabled Children in the School Built Environments
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The objectives of this paper are first to introduce various concepts of accessibility that describe independence and easy mobility as derived from international theories. Secondly, to investigate the types of barriers which incur difficulties to people with disabilities such as the physically challenged children with diverse disabilities, including

Dynamic Modeling and Control of Nonholonomic Mobile Robot with Lateral Slip
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Nonholonomic mobile robots are characterized by no-slip constraints. However, in many practical situations, slips are inevitable. In this work, we develop a theoretical and systematic framework to include slip dynamics into the overall dynamics of the wheeled mobile robot (WMR). Such a dynamic model is useful to understand the slip characteristics

Synthesis of Nano Sized Hydroxyapatite Powder Using sol-Gel Technique and its Conversion to Dense and Porous Bodies
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Hydroxyapatite powder has been prepared via sol-gel procedure using calcium nitrate tetrahydrate and diammonium hydrogen phosphate as the precursors for calcium and phosphorus, respectively. XRD measurement shows that the powder contains hydroxyapatite crystals with ß-TCP and calcium oxide as secondary phases. Hydroxyapatite powder of higher purit

The Origins and Functions of Islamic Domestic Courtyards
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This book discusses the phenomenon of the courtyard in Islamic domestic architecture, focusing on the issues of its origins and diverse functions. The book treats the phenomenon of Islamic domestic courtyards as a cultural, environmental, structural and, above all, religious one, because it is the message of Islam that presided, by and large, over
