Winning the Battles, Losing the War? an Assessment of Counterterrorism in Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This work addresses the structural weaknesses that threaten to derail counterterrorism efforts by the Malaysian government. It also highlights the links between various pre-September 11 security issues in Southeast Asia and the terrorism threat facing Malaysia at present. The limitations of the current counterterrorism approach by the government ar

Modelling of low-Energy/low-Velocity Impact on Nomex Honeycomb Sandwich Structures with Metallic Skins
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In the aircraft industry, manufacturers have to decide quickly whether an impacted sandwich needs repairing or not. Certain computation tools exist at present but they are very time-consuming and they also fail to perfectly model the physical phenomena involved in an impact. In a previous publication, the authors demonstrated the possibility of rep

Teaching Creative Thinking Skills and its Challenges, Strategies and Future Implications: a Narrative of IIUM Experience
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper aims at exploring, discussing and analyzing some major issues in teaching creative thinking skills (CTS) based on IIUM experience.1 These issues are challenges encountering trainers and lectures in teaching (CTS), strategies to overcome these challenges, and future implications proposed to enhance the process. It is well recognized world

Core Crush Criterion to Determine the Strength of Sandwich Composite Structures Subjected to Compression After Impact
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In this study a core crush criterion is proposed to determine the residual strength of impacted sandwich structures. The core of the sandwich is made of a Nomex Honeycomb core and the faces are laminated and remain thin. The mechanism of failure of this kind of structure under post-impact compressive loading is due to interaction between three mech

Feature Extraction and Selection for Defect Classification of Pulsed Eddy Current Ndt
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Pulsed eddy current (PEC) is a new emerging nondestructive testing (NDT) technique using a broadband pulse excitation with rich frequency information and has wide application potentials. This technique mainly uses feature points and response signal shapes for defect detection and characterization, including peak point, frequency analysis, and stati

Adaptation of homotopy-Perturbation Method for Numeric–analytic Solution of System of Odes
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

A new reliable algorithm based on an adaptation of the standard Homotopy-Perturbation Method (HPM) is presented. The HPM is treated,for the first time, as an algorithm in a sequence of intervals (i.e., time step) for finding accurate approximate solutions of linear and nonlinear systems of ODEs. Numerical comparisons between the multistage Homotopy

Analytical Solutions to Heat Transfer Equations by homotopy-Perturbation Method Revisited
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In this Letter, the problem of determining the temperature distribution of a straight rectangular fin with power-law temperature-dependent surface heat flux is revisited. The solution of the corresponding nonlinear boundary-value problem (BVP) based on the homotopy-perturbation method (HPM) presented earlier is corrected and extended.Physics Letter

Prevalence, Associated Factors and Outcomes of Pressure Injuries in Adult Intensive Care Unit Patients: the Decubicus Study
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Purpose: Intensive care unit (ICU) patients are particularly susceptible to developing pressure injuries. Epidemiologic data is however unavailable. We aimed to provide an international picture of the extent of pressure injuries and fac‑ tors associated with ICU-acquired pressure injuries in adult ICU patients. Methods: International 1-day point-

Towards a More Socially Inclusive and Sustainable Framework for Islamic Banking and Finance
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Mainstream interest based financial system marginalized many Muslims as the system is in conflict with the principles of sharīʿah (Islamic law). Islāmic banking and finance (IBF) institutions aimed at promoting Islāmic norms of economic behavior, and ultimately to realize the maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah have developed and offer sharīʿah complia
