This thesis describes the construction of dendritic molecules using weighted ternary trees where each node is a record that represents the different physical, chemical, and quantum mechanical constants of a given atom ...

In this paper we propose a new well-balanced unstaggered central finite volume scheme for the shallow water equations on variable bottom topographies, with wet and dry states. Based on a special piecewise linear reconstruction ...

We propose a new well-balanced unstaggered central finite volume scheme for hyperbolic balance laws with geometrical source terms. In particular we construct a new one and two-dimensional finite volume method for the ...

This thesis seeks to explore the extent to which modern western educational ideology influences, or even determines, educational development in the Middle East, and in particular in Lebanon. In the last decade, new ...

Scholarly attention to gender issues in the Middle East has been focused almost exclusively on a quest to understand femininity. There are as yet no significant studies that make Muslim men visible as gendered subjects, ...
