Biomedical Analysis of Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion (LLIF) Cage for Lumbar Vertebrae by Zulkefli, Aiman Asiqin, Mazlan, Muhammad Hazli, Takano, Hiromitsu, Md Salleh, Nur Saliha, Jalil, Muhammad Hilmi

“…Results: The results showed the best interbody cage design was the honeycomb pattern with 70% infill density because the honeycomb structure produced the lowest equivalent and maximum principal stress. Discussion: The findings indicate that when the yield and ultimate tensile strength of the material are higher than the equivalent and maximum principal stress, the risk of cage failure is lower. …”

The effect of peer firms determining firm capital structure: evidence from manufacturing in Malaysia by Ayaz, Muhammad

“…The results showed that firm capital structure responses to the capital structure decisions of the peer firms, which suggests that firm in manufacturing sector does not make its capital decisions in isolation and peer firms decisions impact subject firm own decisions. The findings further reveal that peer effects mainly exists through the actions (actual capital structure policies) of peer firms rather than their characteristics and peer effect is the most important factor (determinant) of capital structure than prior identified factors. …”
