DR. NURUL AINI BINTI JAAFAR

Office: C10 - 410

Email: nurulaini.jaafar@utm.my

Dr. Nurul Aini is a newly appointed senior lecturer at our de-

partment started on 16th December 2018. She received her

Bachelor of Applied Science (majored in Mathematical Model-

ling and minored in Management) in 2010, Master of Science

(Mathematics) in 2011 and Doctor of Philosophy

(Mathematical Modeling) in 2017 from Universiti Sains Malay-

sia (USM).

In her Ph.D, she focused on the mathematical analysis of Her-

schel-Bulkley fluid model for solute dispersion in blood flow

through narrow conduits under the supervisions of Dr. Yaza-

riah Mohd Yatim (USM) and Prof. Dr. D. S. Sankar (Universiti

Teknologi Brunei (UTB), formerly at USM).

Her research areas include mathematical modeling, fluid me-

chanics, hemodynamics, biomechanics, differential equation

and blood flow. Her researches can help the doctors to ob-

serve the characteristics of the blood flow in diagnosis and

treatment of many cardiovascular diseases.

Currently, Dr. Nurul Aini is continuing her research in the area

of mathematical analysis of non-Newtonian fluid models in

blood flow.

Second Grade Fluid due to Non-Coaxial Rotation” that focused

on boundary layer problem. During his study, he was appoint-

ed as President of PGSS FS and President of PGSS UTM where

his team successfully organised a few programmes that were

related to postgraduate activities, such as 3MT Competition

2017, 5th ISPC 2017, UTM Fun Run and IGCESH 2018. Due to

his outstanding performances, he was awarded the Best Post-

graduate Award, Anugerah Pro-Chancellor, and Anugerah

Alumni for 54th and 61st UTM Convocation.

His research areas are mathematical modelling of Newtonian

and non-Newtonian fluids problems, heat and mass transfer

problems and their solutions via analytical techniques using

Laplace transform method. He is currently working as a com-

mittee member in FS Research Week 2019, Penyediaan Bahan

Justifikasi Semakan Kurikulum and Research Carnival Week

Bagi bidang matematik tulen, pem-bentang terbaik dimenangi oleh pelajar PhD Jabatan Sains Matematik iaitu Nur Idayu Alimon. Anugerah PERSAMA 2018 telah diadakan bersempena Majlis Makan Malam SKSM ke-26. Antara anugerah-anugerah yang dimenangi oleh pelajar, staf dan mantan staf JSM adalah seperti berikut: 1. Anugerah Sanjungan Kategori Tesis Doktor Falsafah – Dr Nurhidaya Mohamad Jan 2. Anugerah Sanjungan Kategori Tesis Sarjana – Ahmad Firdaus bin Yosman 3. Anugerah Sanjungan Kategori Makalah Ilmiah – PM Dr Sharidan Shafie 4. Anugerah Utama Kategori Buku (Karya Asli) – Maselan@Mazlan Ali (mantan Staf JSM) & Rozaini Roslan

Anugerah-anugerah ini telah disampaikan pada malam 29 Novem-

ber 2018 iaitu dalam Majlis Makan Malam SKSM ke-26 dan Penyam-paian Anugerah PERSAMA. Perasmian SKSM26 ini pula telah disempur-nakan oleh Naib Canselor UMS, YBhg. Prof. Datuk Dr. D Kamarudin D Mudin. Majlis Makan Malam ini juga telah dimeriahkan dengan persembahan tarian tradisional Sabah dan diakhiri dengan majlis pe-nutup dengan simbolik penyerahan keris.

Diharap budaya matematik akan diteruskan dalam kalangan penyelidik-penyelidik Sains Matematik kita. Diharap lebih ramai lagi staf akademik Jabatan kita yang akan melibatkan diri dalam SKSM27 pada tahun ini.
