Optimized Virtual Fields with Noise Minimization
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This chapter discusses numerical issues in noise minimization and a representative cost function to be minimized. Such a minimization helps in finding a unique and optimized set of unknown bending rigidity that is least sensitive to noise. This chapter presents an optimized identification procedure with minimum noise sensitivity and its adaption fo

The Equilibrium Gap Method
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This chapter discusses the equilibrium gap method that utilizes full field data measured over a surface. The method has been shown to give promising results for identification of elastic constitutive properties. Also, the method has been applied to the case of a damaged specimen. Initial trial values of unknown data is given as input and then the g

Carbon and Nitrogen Effect on Exopolysaccharides Production of Schizophyllum Commune
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The effects of various carbon and nitrogen sources on the production of mycelial and exopolysaccharides (EPS) by local strain Schizophyllum commune were investigated in shake flask culture. Mycelial growth increased until day 14 whereas EPS peaked at day 11 , and then declined. Dextrin, maltose and soluble starch exhibited good mycelial growth with

Introduction of Piecewise Virtual Fields Method for Solution of Inverse Problems
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This chapter discusses the direct identification of bending rigidities of a thin anisotropic composite plate. The simultaneous identification of constitutive parameters from heterogeneous strain fields is an important issue in the experimental solid mechanics community.The idea is to determine the unknown parameters from a single test giving a uniq

Numerical Construction of Piecewise Virtual Fields
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This chapter discusses the numerical issues in construction of piecewise virtual fields over a specimen. The improvement and advantages over the use of single virtual element has been examined. Such a piecewise construction has been successfully used to characterize a thin composite plate in bending. Moreover, the use of piecewise elements has show

The Constitutive Equation Gap Method
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This chapter discusses constitutive equation gap method used for identification of materials constitutive parameters. It involves a comparison of given stress field and displacement field to a computed stress field generated by using an initial set of materials constitutive model. This method is based on the gap estimation and minimization that is

Lateral Crushing of Composite Fuselages
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Lateral crushing experiment on a model of a composite based-fuselage of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) has been carried out. The middle cylindrical part of the fueslage was selected as the area of interest. The model was fabricated using Carbon fiber/epoxy by means of hand lay-up method and was put under quasi-static compression loading in order to

A Review on the Implementation of Qlassic in Construction Projects
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Construction Industrial Development Board (CIDB) of Malaysia has established QLASSIC as a quality indicator in determining the quality level of construction projects. This paper reviews various aspects of the system including the definition, objectives, scope, component, and assessment. This review aims to create awareness on the system among vario

Buckling of Composite Columns
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This chapter deals with the experimental procedure to evaluate the critical load, failure load and predict the mode of failure for the column speciments made of composite material. The type of section that is being considered is rectangular and both woven roving fiber and chopped strand mats fiber types of glass fibers have been examined.

مقاصة الديون في الفقه الإسلامي وتطبيقاتها المستحدثة في البنوك الإسلامية Setting of Debts in Islamic Jurisprudence and it Novel Application in Islamic Banks
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

تحولّت المُقاصة في العصر الحديث من مجرد معاملة بسيطة كانت تتمُّ بين طرفين كلٌ منهما دائنٌ للآخر ومدينٌ له إلى عملية آلية وتقنية واسعة الانتشار، تشترك فيها أطراف متعددة، ليس في البلد الواحد فق�
