Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper investigates the material removal rate (MRR) in electro discharge micromachining (micro-EDM) of zirconia. Experimental investigation is carried out with 800 μm diameter tungsten electrode with two varying parameters rotational speed and gap voltage. The MRR data are analyzed and an empirical model is developed using Design Expert softwa

Influence of Lipids on the Hydrophobic Barrier Within the Pore of the Twik-1 K2p Channel
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Several recent ion channel structures have revealed large side portals, or ‘fenestrations’ at the interface between their transmembrane helices that potentially expose the ion conduction pathway to the lipid core of the bilayer. In a recent study we demonstrated that functional activity of the TWIK-1 K2P channel is influenced by the presence of
