  • Nasser, S.; Sammour, R.; Dehaby, N.; El Habr, C. (2017-02-02)
    Background Fox–Fordyce Disease (FFD) is a rare chronic inflammatory skin disease of the apocrine glands, mainly affecting post-pubertal women. It involves apocrine gland-bearing areas including the axilla, areola, anogenital ...
  • Karam, G.N.; Tonyan, T.D. (2018-01-29)
    The fractal morphology of the microstructure of cement foams is studied. The pore sizes are shown to follow a fractal distribution. The solid skeleton is also found to be fractal and its fractal dimension is calculated for ...
  • Tannous, Zeina (2017-11-08)
    Fractional resurfacing produces a distinctive thermal damage pattern by creating discrete columns of thermal damage referred to as microthermal treatment zones. It characteristically spares the tissue surrounding each ...
  • Tabbara, Mazen (Northwestern University, 2018-09-17)
    The principal object of investigation is the behavior of structures with softening load-displacement curves. The study deals with three interrelated areas: (1) a model for fracture of aggregate composites, (2) stability ...
  • Abi Shdid, Caesar; Hajali, Masood (2017-06-07)
    The tensile test is an important and widely used test to determine the mechanical properties of steel materials. In tensile test, a specimen is pulled and specimen deformation and applied load is recorded until its ...
  • Kamrava, Mehran (Oxford University Press, 2018-08-27)
  • Naudé, Wim; Santos Paulino, Amelia U.; McGillivray, Mark (Oxford University Press, 2017-08-21)
  • Terzian, Meghrig Ohanes (Lebanese American University, 2016-03-04)
    In recent years, the protein structure prediction problem has come under extensive investigation, and computational structure prediction methods are circumventing the time-consuming experimental methods by accelerating the ...
  • Mansour, Nashat; Terzian, Meghrig (2018-05-29)
    Proteins consist of sequences of amino acids that fold into 3-dimensional structures. The 3-dimensional configuration determines a protein’s function. Hence, it is very important to determine the correct structure in order ...
  • Mershad, Khaleel (2020-03-03)
    Wireless sensor networks (WSN) have evolved as one of the most important research topics in the last decades. A new paradigm of combining WSN with cloud computing has led to what is called Sensor-Cloud, in which the cloud ...
  • Mershad, Khaleel; Artail, Hassan (IEEE, 2013-12-02)
    The strong potentials that exist in Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANETs) has given birth to the concept of Vehicular Clouds, in which cloud computing services are hosted by vehicles that have sufficient resources to act as ...
  • Mershad, Khaleel; Kaitoua, Abdul Rahman; Artail, Hassan; Saghir, Mazen A.R.; Hajj, Hazem (IEEE, 2013-11-07)
    Cloud computing is increasingly becoming a desirable and foundational element in international enterprise computing. There are many companies which design, develop, and offer cloud technologies. However, cloud providers ...
  • Mershad, Khaleel; Artail, Hassan (2012-10-26)
    Intervehicular communication lies at the core of a number of industry and academic research initiatives that aim at enhancing the safety and efficiency of transportation systems. Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) enable ...
  • Khdeir, Vera (Lebanese American University, 2011-09-28)
    This work attempts to employ the technology of distributed and active databases in order to provide support for application-oriented software products implementing workflow techniques. Workflow can be seen as the automation ...

    Because of the recent collapse of several major companies, investors' confidence in audited financial statements has decreased significantly. Fraud has been a major topic among many scholars and stakeholders due to its ...
  • Chami, Mohammad (Lebanese American University, 2018-03-06)
    We explore the performance of N-user multi-point-to-multi-point Free Space Optical (FSO) communication systems. For such systems, the communication between the N transmitters and N receivers relies on user grouping for ...
  • Ismail, Sami (2023-04-29)
    The base-superstructure metaphor stands as a central hypothesis in Marxism: the economy determines ideology. Economic reductionists misinterpret the base-superstructure theory as a unilateral relation of absolute causation ...
