Filling the Legal Vacuum in Combatting Maritime Crimes: a Law Reform Strategy for Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Maritime security is a major concern for Malaysia as a maritime nation. The crucial question nevertheless is whether there are adequate laws to deal with key maritime crimes that need effective law enforcement measures. The paper finds that no maritime offences are criminalized in the Penal Code, the principal criminal law of Malaysia and that ther

Toxicity Studies of Natural Product in Vero Cells Using Impedance Monitoring
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Natural products have traditionally been used for medicinal purposes in Asian communities. Toxicity studies typically use animal testing to predict the harmfulness of a particular substance to human health. For this study, in lieu of animal testing, we utilize cell-based biosensors to evaluate the toxicity of natural products. The cell-based biosen

Enhancement of the Immediate Release of Paracetamol from Alginate Beads
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Objective: Alginate beads are not soluble in the acid leading to small portion released in the stomach. This may not be favourable for drugs administered for fast action like paracetamol. So, this study was aimed to increase the immediate release of paracetamol from alginate beads, i.e. the release in the acidic pH. Methods: The beads were prepared

Development of an Automated home-Based Aquaponics System
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The Aquaponics systems, a path to sustainable development is aimed at forging a business-like mentality in order to meet the basic needs to contribute to the multifaceted development of communities, both urban and rural, in turn allowing the strengthening of knowledge curiosity, ingenuity and creativity from the question as a starting point of all

Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In this era of IT and mobility, mobile application becomes an essential software application in software industry. Medical and healthcare applications are widely used in human life. With the increasing capabilities of mobile phones, software industry finds it as an important paradigm to develop mobile-health which increased tremendously. Chronic di

Mobile Healthcare to Facilitate Stress and Healthy Life Management
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Nowadays, stress problems continue increasing and become worst due to its poor management and difficult access to diagnosis tool that detect stress. This project work toward developing a mobile healthcare prototype using Android studio to help in managing stress and providing a simple assessment of stress based on a valid and reliable test, DASS-21

Study on Tea Leaves Extract as Green Corrosion Inhibitor of Mild Steel in Hydrochloric Acid Solution
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Corrosion inhibitor from extraction of plant has been considered as the most preferable and most chosen technique to prevent corrosion of metal in acidic medium because of the environmental friendly factor. In this study, black tea leaves extraction was tested as corrosion inhibitor for mild steel in 0.1M of hydrochloric acid (HCl) with the absence

Neural Networks Optimization Through Genetic Algorithm Searches: a Review
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Neural networks and genetic algorithms are the two sophisticated machine learning techniques presently attracting attention from scientists, engineers, and statisticians, among others. They have gained popularity in recent years. This paper presents a state of the art review of the research conducted on the optimization of neural networks through g

Modelling Techniques for Delamination and Fracture of Composites
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In this study, modelling techniques based on new extended finite element methodologies for the study of fracture, in general, and delamination in composites, in particular are presented. Recent approaches have successfully modelled fracture without the need of continuing refinement of the finite element mesh. This is an outstanding advantage in ter

Development and Validation of Guidance Module for Children in Prison: a Study at Kajang Women’s Prison, Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In Kajang Women’s Prison in Malaysia, there are some inmates who have children, those who were either born while their mothers were in detention or were still small and lactating when their mothers were detained. These children are allowed to stay with their mothers in the prison until they reach the age of 3 years. After the age of 3, they will
