Performance Properties of Hybrid Aluminium–composite Columnar Tube Under Axial Crush Force
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper presents an experimental work on the influence of number of layers in the overwrap hybrid composite columnars under repeated axial crush force. The columnar test specimens were fabricated by hand lay–up process using commercial available of 0/90° ply oriented epoxy-glass fiber mats. In determining the energy absorption capacity, three

Crush Zone Morphology of Epoxy–glass Fiber–aluminium Composite Columnar Tube Due to Longitudinal Crushing Force
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Epoxy–glass fiber–aluminium composite may be of interest for energy absorption application due to their improved crashworthiness. In the current study, the hybrid–composite columnar tube specimen has been fabricated by a hand lay–up method using epoxy–glass fiber with aluminium columnar tube as a core material. An experimental quasi–sta

Various networking technologies and terms have been coined in the last couple of decades. The dynamism in networking technologies and applications has paved the way for work on multitudes of research areas. While some areas can be broken into more sub-areas and topics, there is a trend among researchers to think about combining different technologi

Building Customer Trust in Cloud Computing Model
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Building customer trust is a huge problem in the cloud computing paradigm. Today, hundreds of companies around the world are offering cloud services in major or minor scale with global or local reach. In spite of the availability of numerous establishments for cloud services, there is a critical link missing with the customers - and that is the lac

Relevance Status Value Model of Index Islamicus on Islamic History and Civilizations
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Sorting the retrieved results from the most relevant to the least relevant is the common option of an Information Retrieval System (IRS). This sorting mechanism or relevance judgment is computed by measuring closeness of query with its documents. The purposes of this study were to measure the relevance status of Index Islamicus, evaluate the semant

Comparison of the Neurotoxic and Myotoxic Effects of Two Moroccan Scorpion Venoms and their Neutralization by Experimental Polyclonal Antivenom
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Aims: Scorpion venoms contain complex mixtures of molecules, including peptides. These peptides specifically bind to various targets, in particular ion channels. Toxins modulating Na+, K+, Ca2+ and Cl − currents were described from venoms. The Androctonus and Buthus geni of scorpions are widely distributed in Morocco. Their stings can cause pain,

Response of Lemna Minor and Salninia Natans as Phyroremediation Agents Towards Fe, Cu and Zn Toxicities via in Vivo Model System

A lack of aquatic plants in aquatic ecosystem may suggest a reduced population of wildlife whereas the absence of aquatic plants may indicate problems in water quality. However an overabundance of aquatic plants may due to excessive nutrients, organic or heavy metals interference. Aquatic plants are well known as a good accumulator for heavy metals

Understanding Medical Destination Choice Behaviour: an Exploratory Approach
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Over the past decade, medical tourism has been growing progressively in developing countries of Eastern Europe, South Asia, Southeast Asia, and Middle East. This paper aims to conceptually understand medical tourists’ (or consumers) intentional behaviour to destined countries of their choice within the ‘Halal’ (Permissible) medical tourism se

Shariah Compliant Audit Checklist for Tourism Accommodation Premises
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The awareness towards Shariah compliant concept to be implementing in Hotel sector has been discussed since 1982. An extensive literature and research described variety of approaches and methods to improve the understanding of the concept. Specifically in many of the hotel operations, one of the prior parts is to provide comfortable and affordable

Assessment of Aquatic Ecosystem Status Using Macrophyte Species as Key Tools Indicator for Heavy Metal Pollution
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Aquatic plants or macrophytes are beneficial to fresh water bodies because they produce oxygen, which assists with overall fresh water bodies functioning, and provide food and shelter for aquatic living organisms. A lack of aquatic plants in a freshwater bodies system where they are expected to occur may suggest a reduced population of macro and mi
