A Study on urban-Rural Public Bus Passengers' Demographic and Trip Characteristics in Peninsular Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This research highlights the urban-rural bus services gap in the selected settlements in Peninsular Malaysia. Four states are selected as case studies with Johor to represent the southern states, Penang to represent the northern states and for east-coast states, Pahang is selected. Meanwhile Perak is to represent a still developing state, which is

Critical Role of Arid3b in the Expression of pro-Apoptotic P53-target Genes and Apoptosis
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

ARID3A and ARID3B are transcriptional targets of p53. Recently, it has been reported that ARID3A plays a critical role in the transcriptional activation of pro-arrest p21 in response to DNA damage. However, the role of ARID3B in the p53 regulatory pathway remains poorly understood. Here we show that ARID3A and ARID3B specifically bind to putative A

Analysis of the Efficiency of Sludge Dewatering Using Moringa Oleifera as Natural Phytocoagulant
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In order to evaluate the efficiency of sludge dewatering, specific parameters such as settling velocity (Vs) and sludge volume index (SVI) have to be measured. However, problems arise when these parameters are used for the evaluation of efficiency using M. oleifera as natural phytocoagulant or sludge conditioner. Using statistical optimization, it

Community of Inquiry Method and Language Skills Acquisition: Empirical Evidence
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The study investigates the effectiveness of community of inquiry method in preparing students to develop listening and speaking skills in a sample of junior secondary school students in Borno state, Nigeria. A sample of 100 students in standard classes was drawn in one secondary school in Maiduguri metropolis through stratified random sampling tech

Effect of Electron Beam Irradiation on the Morphology of Alumina Ceramic
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

There has been an increased interest in improving the properties of alumina ceramic to be used in nuclear applications. This paper focuses on the effect of electron beam irradiation on the morphology of alumina ceramic. Alumina ceramic pellet was prepared by compacting of fine alumina powder then subjected for sintering process at 1500ºC for 2 hou

Crashworthy Capacity of a Hybridized epoxy-Glass Fiber Aluminum Columnar Tube Using Repeated Axial Resistive Force
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

A combination of aluminum columnar member with composite laminate to form a hybrid structure can be used as collapsible energy absorbers especially in automotive vehicular structures to protect occupants and cargo. A key advantage of aluminum member in composite is that it provides ductile and stable plastic collapse mechanisms with progressive def

Viscosity Profiles of Phosphate Glasses Through Combined quasi-Static and bob-In-cup Methods
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This study used a combined viscosity approach to determine theoretical fibre drawing points for glasses in the series: xP2O5, 24MgO, 16CaO, (60-x)Na2O (x = 0,45,50,55) and yP2O5, 24MgO, 16CaO, (55-y)Na2O, 5Fe2O3 (y = 40,45,50,55). The points cannot be measured directly since the glasses are only kinetically stable at these points and would crystall

The Practice of Coastal Management Initiatives in Using Geographical Information System in Selangor, Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Globally, coastlines are undergoing rapid development and firm management policies have to be established. However, for any shore management to be effective, the policies need to be based on informed decision-making. GIS encourages the development and use of standards for coastal data definition, collection and storage, which promotes compatibility

Language Mixing of a bangla-English Learning Bilingual Child
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The present study investigates the mixed utterances produced by a mono-ethnic simultaneous bilingual child receiving Bangla and English as his two first languages, a phenomenon referred to as Bilingual First Language Acquisition (BFLA). The form and structural patterns of the mixed utterances produced by the bilingual child with both his Bangla and

Prevalence of Health Related Behaviors Among Rural Community in Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Background: Health related behavior act as a gate to our health. Practicing good health related behavior will prevent us from contacting diseases especially of the non-communicable type, while engaging in poor health related behavior will increased the risk few folds. Objective: To determine the prevalence of health related behavior and its associa
