  • Nour, Chadi; Stern, Ronald J.; Takche, Jean (2016-03-30)
    The exterior sphere condition is compared to proximal smoothness, and examples are provided, which show that the two properties are not necessarily equivalent. Then conditions are given under which equivalence holds, ...
  • Sharif, Buthaina (Lebanese American University, 2012-12-20)
  • Al Jazairi, Rania (Lebanese American University, 2011-10-21)
    Today, the United Nations in general and the International Human Rights system in particular are undergoing reforms because they have often been accused of inefficiency. At the eve of creating the new Human Rights Council ...
  • Bark, Adiba A. (Lebanese American University, 2013-02-28)
    Peacekeeping and peace enforcement are two very different approaches in dealing with settlement of disputes and conflicts. Both have their pros and cons, especially as far as the involvement of the United Nations is ...
  • Alotaibi, Talal (Lebanese American University, 2011-10-20)
    More than a half -century since its establishment, there now appears to be a widespread consensus that the United Nations, the world's premier international organization, is in desperate need of reform. Although the calls ...
  • Chahrour, Amira Masoud (Lebanese American University, 2011-10-25)
    Since September 11, 2001, the threat of terrorism has become a topic of priority for the international community. However, the inability of the United Nations to agree upon a general definition of what constitutes terrorism ...
  • Abou Jaoudeh, Gilbert (Lebanese American University, 2011-04-15)
  • Hallak, Nancy (Lebanese American University, 2011-10-24)
    Having contained the communist threat through the defeat of the Soviets in Afghanistan, the United States indirectly created a heavenly environment for extremists and terrorists. Afghanistan became increasingly unstable, ...
  • Hamade, Susan (Lebanese American University, 2011-03-14)
    This paper presents a study that investigates university students' beliefs and perceptions about language learning. Specifically, it looks at student conceptions, motivation, and views on language leaming and its instructional ...
  • Diab, Rula L. (2016-05-12)
    This study explored the beliefs about language learning of Lebanese English as a Foreign Language university students, compared their beliefs about learning different target languages, namely, English and French, and ...
  • Salem, Nour (2023-04-07)
    Reclaiming the mantle of Islamic leadership has led Iran and Saudi Arabia to engage in proxy-wars to counter each other’s efforts in ruling the region. Both rivals target weak States as Lebanon to exert their influence ...
  • Khoshian, Meghry (Lebanese American University, 2012-09-26)
    Scholarship addressing Hizbullah’s military and political aspects is vast. Yet, the literature is relatively limited when examining Hizbullah as a social service provider. This thesis looks at the party as a social and ...
  • Touma, Rony; Zeidan, Dia (2018-09-10)
    In this paper we extend a central finite volume method on nonuniform grids to the case of drift-flux two-phase flow problems. The numerical base scheme is an unstaggered, non oscillatory, second-order accurate finite volume ...
  • Touma, Rony (2018-09-07)
    We develop an unstaggered central scheme for approximating the solution of general two‐dimensional hyperbolic systems. In particular, we are interested in solving applied problems arising in hydrodynamics and astrophysics. ...
  • Touma, Rony (2018-09-07)
    We develop second-order nonoscillatory unstaggered central schemes (UCS) with a constrained transport-type method to solve one and two-dimensional hyperbolic problems arising in astrophysics. In contrast with the original ...
  • Touma, R. (2016-04-07)
    We propose an unstaggered, non-oscillatory, second-order accurate central scheme for approximating the solution of general hyperbolic systems in one and two space dimensions, and in particular for estimating the solution ...
  • Khnayzer, Rony S.; Blumhoff, Jorg; Harrington, Jordan A.; Haefele, Alexandre; Deng, Fan; Castellano, Felix N. (2017-11-06)
    Upconversion photochemistry occurring between palladium(II) octaethylporphyrin (PdOEP, 1) and 9,10-diphenylanthracene (DPA, 2) in toluene successfully sensitizes nanostructured WO3 photoanodes (Eg = 2.7 eV) to sub-bandgap ...
