Comparative Water Quality Study Between Peat Coagulant Treated and Untreated Model Water Bodies
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Locally invented coagulant from Malaysian peat soil was effective for the clarification of lake and river water. Study was performed on stagnant lake water using model water bodies treated with peat coagulant. Better water quality was found in peat coagulant treated lake water compared to the lake water without peat coagulant treatment. The Dissolv

Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Leptospirosis is a preventable zoonosis of public health importance. Due to seasonal floods and paucity of studies regarding leptospirosis preventive practices in community setting in this country, a study was conducted to determine spatial distribution of knowledge, attitude and practice on leptospirosis preventive practices using stratum risk ide

A Proposed resistance-To-time Converter with Switching Impulse Calibrators for Application in Resistive Bridge Sensors
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper presents a simple resistance-to-time converter. It consists of two voltage comparators, a ramp voltage generator, two logic gates and impulse voltage calibrators. A square-wave generator circuit is suggested in this paper. The design is simple and independent of the OPAMP offset issues. The resulting square-wave is rectified to get its D
