Investigation of Effect of Process Parameters on Suddenly Expanded Flows Through an axi-Symmetric Nozzle for Different Mach Numbers Using Design of Experiments
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Experiments are conducted to determine base pressure variation through micro-jets from a suddenly expanded axisymmetric passage. Four micro-jets having an orifice diameter of 1mm are situated at 900 interims along the base at 6.5 mm from the geometrical axis of the main jet. The Mach number and L/D ratios were the process parameters employed in the

Kaolinite Sludge Dewatering Using Different Coagulants from Moringa Oleifera Seeds
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In this research, seven sets of coagulants were prepared from Moringa oleifera (MO) seeds and applied on kaolin suspension as synthetic sludge model. The first form is crude MO seeds powder without any treatment, while the second is defatted MO seeds powder. The third form was prepared by mixing the defatted seeds powder with distilled water for th

Identifying Disclosure Items for Zakat Institutions

Mechanical Impedance Modeling of Human Arm: a Survey
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Human arm mechanical impedance plays a vital role in describing motion ability of the upper limb. One of the impedance parameters is stiffness which is defined as the ratio of an applied force to the measured deformation of the muscle. The arm mechanical impedance modeling is useful in order to develop a better controller for system that interacts
