Dietary Zinc and the Brain.
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Zinc (Zn), after iron, is the second most abundant essential element in different organs of the human body. The amount of Zn to be absorbed and hence utilized or metabolized in different tissues depends on the total Zn content of the diet and its bioavailability, specially its solubility in the intestinal lumen. In the brain, additional control on

Integrating Lessons from the Qur’an and Hadith in Teaching Molecular Biology
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The integration of the teachings of Islam in many fields of studies such as physics, chemistry, mathematics, engineering, and molecular biology is perceived by many to be easier said than done. However, it is necessary to caution that taking teachings from Islamic guidelines and integrating them to the context of scientific evidence or vice versa p

Intelligent air-Cushion Tracked Vehicle Performance Investigation: neural-Networks
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Intelligent air-cushion tracked vehicle (IACTV) is focused for the alternatives to conventional off-road vehicles, which are driven by track system and air-cushion system. To make IACTV as efficient as possible, proper investigation of vehicle performance is essential. However, most relevant factors that affect the competitive efficiency of the air

Development of a Model of of Energy Efficient Hybrid Engine Towards Green Technology
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The main focus of this study is to develop a fuel efficient hybrid engine to operate a designed and developed urban car of weight 1.42 kN. The hybrid engine is developed by coupling a high efficient 12 volt generator with a 33.5 cc engine of power 1.18 kW @7,000 rpm. The generator starts to power the DC motor to propel the car as soon as the engine

A Study on Automated Traction Control System of an Electrical Golf Car
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This study presents an automated traction control system (ATCS)without incorporating the function of hydraulic system. The ATCS is used for improving the vehicle performance in terms of stability and torque or speed needed in order to produce smooth driving. Driving motor and wheel speed sensor (WSS) with RPM meter are used in this study to develop
