We consider a stochastic Darcy’s pressure equation whose coefficient is generated by a white noise process on a Hilbert space employing the ordinary (rather than the Wick) product. A weak form of this equation involves different spaces for the solution and test functions and we establish a continuous inf-sup condition and well-posedness of the problem. We generalize the numerical approximations...

In this paper, we analyse the Yang–Wong–Deng signcryption scheme [G. Yang, D.S. Wong, X. Deng, Analysis and improvement of a signcryption scheme with key privacy, in: Information Security Conference—ISC’05, in: Lecture Notes in Comput. Sci., vol. 3650, Springer-Verlag, Berlin, 2005, pp. 218–232] proposed in ISC’05, which is the improvement and enhancement of the security of Libert–Quisquater si...

This study was conducted to investigate the low prevalence of Dirofilaria immitis in dogs in Johor Bahru as reported by veterinary practitioners, using wet blood mount, Knott’s Concentration Test and two heartworm antigen test kits (IDEXX Canine SNAP® 4Dx and RapiGEN®). This study also compared the two test kits used and determined the microfilaria species. Blood were collected from 100 owned d...

This work focused on the influence of processing conditions on the mechanical properties of polypropylene (PP) and PP/mesoporous silica-hydroxyapatite (PP/MCM-41-HA) hybrid nanocomposites. The mechanical properties of PP were enhanced by adding MCM-41-HA nanoparticles. Neat PP and hybrid nanocomposites based on PP, containing maleic anhydride-grafted polypropylene (PP-g-MA) and MCM-41-HA, were ...

PP-g-PS copolymer is a typical compatilizer used in polypropylene and polystyrene immiscible blends. PP-g-PS copolymers with different side chain lengths were synthesized, and their thermal and mechanical properties were characterized by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), polarizing optical microscopy (POM) and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), respectively. The DSC and POM results show ...
