Muslim Public Opinion Toward the International Order [electronic resource] : Support for International and Regional Actors /
No full textThis book analyses the attitudes of Muslim citizens toward international and regional actors. In essence, the project examines whether Muslim public opinion is in favor of the current international order and if there is an ideal type of international governance perceived by Muslim citizens. The author connects the analysis to the literature of international public opinion and to the research on social legitimacy of international and global governance. It is ideal for scholarly audiences interested in Islamic, International and Global Governance Studies.

Newly isolated sporopollenin microcages from Platanus orientalis pollens as a vehicle for controlled drug delivery
No full textWOS: 000403381200030PubMed: 28532028Sporopollenin microcages were produced from the pollens of Platanus orientalis. Paracetamol was loaded into the microcages. Pollen, sporopollenin, paracetamol and paracetamol-loaded sporopollenin microcages were characterized with FT-IR, TGA and SEM. The analytical analyses demonstrated that sporopollenin microcages were structurally intact, highly reticulated and thermally stable. The loading efficiency of the sporopollenin microcages was found to be 8.2% using the passive loading technique and 23.7% via evaporating loading technique. In vitro release and kinetics studies were performed to test the suitability of sporopollenin microcages for loading. These studies revealed that sporopollenin from P. orientalis can be suggested as a suitable carrier for drug loading and controlled release studies.

The Application Of Polymer Particles In Industrial Processes
No full textThe research in this thesis considers novel innovative developments in established
industrial processes that involve the use of recyclable polymeric particles as a
partial replacement for aqueous media and chemicals. The application of the
technology typically leads to water savings of over 80% and chemical savings of
over 25%. These industrial processes may be characterised in that are considered
inefficient and wasteful but nevertheless are considered economically vital. These
diverse industries including laundry cleaning, leather manufacturing, textile
garment processing, effluent treatment and metal beverage can manufacture.
The outcomes of this research have made significant contributions to industrial
best practice in such industries. In terms of academic research, the knowledge
created in this thesis provides the basis for the application of CFD-DEM modelling
to understand complex multi-phase and multi-component systems. In particular,
the thesis advocates the application of the Free Surface Lattice Boltzmann Method
for creating highly accurate simulations of multi-phase flow. In addition, the thesis
offers opportunities for further research in novel plasma micro-reactors and their
applications in diverse fields such as chemical synthesis, chemical engineering and
biotechnology. The nature of the research is multi-disciplinary, and involved
investigations across several fields including applied mathematics, biochemistry,
chemistry, physics, and engineering. The projects also involved scale up from
laboratory, pilot plant and full commercial scale production trials. Primary
objectives were investigated through a series of six published patents. The three
patents relating to the development of novel leather and textile processes were
solely conceived and executed by the author. The patent related to the
development of the plasma micro-reactor for ozone synthesis was conceived and
executed jointly by the author and Professor Will Zimmerman (Sheffield University).
The two patents related to the development of a novel metal cleaning and
treatment process was conceived and executed jointly by the author and Dr.

Protect Against Phishing Scams
No full textAbstract: Phishing is an act of luring unsuspecting recipient of a message into revealing information which can be used against the recipient. Email is the most common medium of creating a Phishing attack against individuals and organizations. Phishing is a type of social engineering attempt, usually via emails, designed to trick the recipient. These attacks often result in malicious software getting deployed, steal user data including credentials or financial data, and victimize the entire infrastructure for ransom etc. First step in preventing this attack is to identify what a Phishing attempt is, to report it, and take similar actions for others. The golden rule of prevention is when you are in doubt, do not open that email, download its attachments or click on any hyperlinks inside.
Keywords: Phishing, Spam, Email, Malware, Social Engineering.

Dermoid cyst in the floor of the mouth extending to the submental region: A case report and a review
No full textDermoid cysts in the floor of the mouth or submental region are developmental cysts that occur due to the entrapment of the ectoderm between the second and third branchial arch during embryogenesis around 3rd–5th week of intrauterine life. This report aimed to report the case of a 21-year-old Nigerian woman who presented with a chief complaint of swelling in the floor of the mouth extending to the submental region. There was associated recent history of pain and difficulty in chewing, speaking, and breathing. Clinical, ultrasonography, and histological evaluations were done to establish a diagnosis of an infected dermoid cyst. The infection was treated with antibiotics, after which surgical excision was done under general anesthesia through nasotracheal intubation. The patient was followed up after the surgery and no complication was recorded
Exploring Value Change in Sustainable Energy Systems: An Agent-Based Exploratory Modelling Approach to Study the Change in Importance of Values
No full textThe climate change around the globe driven by Greenhouse Gas emissions (GHG) is fueling the growth of Sustainable Energy Systems (SES) at a faster pace. However, the lack of acceptance of these systems by society has stifled its successful deployment. Societal values play a key role in evaluating the social acceptance and the broader consequences of SES. However, there exists a complexity of change in the values of people. Alternatively known as value change, although SES may embody values permanently during its design, the values that people hold important may change during the lifetime of SES. Value change may often be driven by various exogenous factors as well as due to the complex, emergent, and dynamic characteristics of SES. Consequently, this has led to high uncertainty in the future acceptance of SES. Exploring the uncertain scenarios of value change is crucial for social acceptance of SES as it can facilitate better consideration of values in evaluating social acceptance of SES, ultimately contributing to the future acceptability of SES by society. However, current approaches to explore value change in ethics of technology literature are scarce. Few have proposed to explore value change, but lack in dealing with value change after it has occurred, or they consider values in a static manner. Alternatively, simulation models show better prospects in exploring complex societal dynamics of which a human mind cannot picture. Simulation models such as Agent-Based Models are seen as a suitable solution to capture the underlying mechanisms that drive the value change considering the complex and dynamic characteristics of SES. The objective of this research is to gain an understanding of the mechanisms that drive the value change in SES, by formulating a modelling approach that integrates agent heterogeneity, common pool resource & dynamic behavior, transformative experience & bounded rationality, and social interaction, to explore value change under various policy and uncertainty scenarios of SES. To this end, this study combined Agent-Based Modelling and Exploratory Modelling approaches to explore the change in importance of values in SES.Engineering and Policy Analysi
