Protecting Muslim Women Against Abuse of Polygamy in Malaysia: Legal Perspective
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Polygamy remains a controversial issue not only in Malaysia but also in many Muslim countries around the world. From the legal perspective, Muslim men, who choose to enter into polygamous marriages and abuse it, largely due to the absence of eff ective measures taken to curtail the problems bring this about. In Malaysia, these steps include the inc

Speech Emotion Verification System (Sevs) Based on Mfcc for Real Time Applications
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Human recognizes speech emotions by extracting features from the speech signals received through the cochlea and later passed the information for processing. In this paper we propose the use of Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficient (MFCC) to extract the speech emotion information to provide both the frequency and time domain information for analysis.

Existence of Equilibrium Solution for a Non- Cooperative Game with Fuzzy Goals and Parameters
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In this paper we introduce a concept of equilibrium for a non- cooperative game with fuzzy goals involving fuzzy parameters. This equilibrium is based on Zimmermann's approach for solving linear multiobjective problems with fuzzy goals and the concept of N-S equilibrium introduced by Zhukovskii for a non- coprative game with payoffs involving u

Effect of Operating Parameters on the Effectiveness of Electric Field Enhanced Separations
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The purpose of this work is to summarize our latest research results about constant-current electroosmotic dewatering (EOD). The Terzaghi-Voigt combined model is used for the analysis of EOD of various solid-liquid systems by considering the creep deformation of the material. Bentonite clay, KC-flock, zinc oxide, and some of their mixtures are used

A New Method for the Theoretical Analysis of Electroforced Sedimentation Using terzaghi-Voigt Combined Model
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In this article a new method for the theoretical analysis of electroforced sedimentation (EFS) by use of the Terzaghi-Voigt combined model is presented. Zinc oxide and a mixture of zinc oxide and KC-flock are used as experimental materials. Both the electro-osmotic pressure gradient Epg and the modified consolidation coefficient Ce of the materials

Optimization of Process Conditions for Lactic Acid Recovery Using Organic Base
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Lactic acid has a wide range of applications in food, pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries. The global market for lactic acid in foods is estimated at 275,000 tons with average annual growth of 10 per cent. The persistent demand of pure and naturally produced lactic acid in food and beverage applications attracted researcher’s interest towards

Comprehensive Driving Behavior Model for Intelligent Transportation Systems
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper presents a novel approach of modeling human driving behavior in a more realistic way that can be effectively utilized in realizing intelligent transportation systems to ensure efficient, safe, secure and human-friendly vehicle control and transportations. A number of supporting systems based on individual driving behavior are identified.

Design and Fabrication of a Device for Measuring Thermal Diffusivity of Food Substances
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Currently available various steady state and unsteady state (transient) methods for the measurement of thermal properties of food substances are limited and have several limitations. Modern research is in process of developing a device which is able to overcome these limitations. In this project a new device for measurement of thermal diffusivity w

Liberalization of Retail Sector and the Economic Impact of the Entry of Foreign Hypermarkets on Local Retailers in Klang Valley, Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The primary purpose of this research is to investigate the impact of liberalization of retail sector via the presence of foreign hypermarkets in Malaysia on local retailers. Both quantitative and qualitative methods (survey and interviews) were used to collect and analyze the data. A total of 135 questionnaires were completed. The findings from the

Conceptualizing Technology Influence on Job Characteristics and Work Outcomes of Instructors in Institutions of Higher Learning
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This article conceptualized the framework of the possible impact of using different levels of technology on the roles and responsibilities of instructors in institutions of higher learning. Based on the literature reviewed, there is an indication that employees who use different types of technology in performing their tasks experience different deg
