Objectively quantified physical activity and sedentary behaviour in a young UAE population
(BMJ Publishing Group, 2021)Objectives There is a lack of public awareness of the importance of engaging in physical activity (PA) in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Nearly 58% of the UAE adult population self-reports as being physically inactive ... -
On 1-absorbing primary ideals of commutative rings
(World Scientific, 2019-04-30)Let R be a commutative ring with nonzero identity. In this paper, we introduce the concept of 1-absorbing primary ideals in commutative rings. A proper ideal I of R is called a 1-absorbing primary ideal of R if whenever ... -
On Morpho-Syntactic Levantisms in Maltese
(Institut de recherches et d’études sur les mondes arabes et musulmans (IREMAM), 2019)Maltese is usually classified as a North African Arabic variety. Yet some researchers have remarked “some curious similarities with the Eastern dialects”. Investigations of these tend to concentrate upon the phonology and ... -
On n-semiprimary ideals and n-pseudo valuation domains

On phi-Dedekind rings and phi-Krull rings
(University of Houston, 2005)The purpose of this paper is to introduce two new classes of rings that are closely related to the classes of Dedekind domains and Krull domains. Let H = {R | R is a commutative ring with 1 and Nil(R) is a divided prime ... -
On phi-Mori rings
(University of Houston, 2006)A commutative ring R is said to be a phi-ring if its nilradical Nil(R) is both prime and comparable with each principal ideal. The name is derived from the natural map phi from the total quotient ring T(R) to R localized ... -
On the dot product graph of a commutative ring II
(International Electronic Journal of Algebra, 2020)In 2015, the second-named author introduced the dot product graph associated to a commutative ring A. Let A be a commutative ring with nonzero identity, 1 ≤ n < ∞ be an integer, and R = A × A × · · · × A (n times). We ... -
On the periodic logistic equation
(Elsevier, 2006)We show that the 𝒑-periodic logistic equation 𝒳ₙ₊₁ = μₙ mod 𝒑𝒳ₙ(1 - 𝒳ₙ) has cycles (periodic solutions) of minimal periods 1; 𝒑; 2𝒑; 3𝒑; …. Then we extend Singer’s theorem to periodic difference equations, and use ... -
On the powers of quasihomogeneous Toeplitz operators
(Springer, 2021)In this article, a fixed point iterative scheme involving Green's function is applied to reach a solution for the buckling of nano-actuators under nonlinear forces. Our solution is convergent. The nano-actuators problem ... -
On the precision of full-spectrum fitting of simple stellar populations. IV. A systematic comparison with results from colour-magnitude diagrams
(Oxford University Press, 2022-03)In this fourth paper of a series on the precision of ages of stellar populations obtained through the full-spectrum fitting technique, we present a first systematic analysis that compare the age, metallicity and reddening ... -
On Weakly 1-Absorbing Primary Ideals of Commutative Rings
(World Scientific, 2022)Let R be a commutative ring with 1 ≠ 0. In this paper, we introduce the concept of weakly 1-absorbing primary ideal which is a generalization of 1-absorbing primary ideal. A proper ideal I of R is called a weakly 1-absorbing ... -
On weakly 2-absorbing ideals of commutative rings
(University of Houston, 2013)Let R be a commutative ring with identity 1 not equal to 0. In this paper, we introduce the concept of a weakly 2-absorbing ideal. A proper ideal I of R is called a weakly 2-absorbing ideal of R if whenever abc is not equal ... -
Option convergence rate with geometric random walks approximations
(Taylor & Frances Online, 2016)We describe a broad setting under which, for European options, if the underlying asset form a geometric random walk then, the error with respect to the Black–Scholes model converges to zero at a speed of 1/𝑛 for continuous ... -
Organ-specific toxicity evaluation of stearamidopropyl dimethylamine (SAPDMA) surfactant using zebrafish embryos
(Elsevier, 2020)Surfactants are widely used in the industry of detergents, household products, and cosmetics. SAPDMA is a cationic surfactant that is used mostly in cosmetics, conditioning agents and has recently gained attention as a ... -
Outcomes and Key Factors of Success for ISO 14001 Certification: Evidence from an Emerging Arab Gulf Country
(MDPI, 2019)The objectives of this research were: (1) To examine the outcomes and key factors of success (KFS) related to ISO 14001 certification, (2) to compare and contrast these in private organizations (PRIVOs) and public organizations ... -
Path Independence of Exotic Options and Convergence of Binomial Approximations
(Infopro Digital Risk (IP), 2019)The analysis of the convergence of tree methods for pricing barrier and lookback options has been the subject of numerous publications aiming at describing, quantifying, and improving the slow and oscillatory convergence ... -
Perceiving Emotions, Facilitating Thought, and Promoting Growth: Using Emotional Intelligence as an Effective Teaching Technique in the Freshman Composition Classroom
(Common Ground Publishing, 2016-06)One of the key issues in teaching writing to students in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region is that they come from diverse high school contexts. Some students have never been formally taught in English, and ... -
Perceptions of Emotional Functionality: Similarities and Differences Among Dignity, Face, and Honor Cultures
(Sage, 2021)Emotions are linked to wide sets of action tendencies, and it can be difficult to predict which specific action tendency will be motivated or indulged in response to individual experiences of emotion. Building on a functional ... -
Periodic Orbits in Periodic Discrete Dynamics
(Elsevier, 2008)We study the combinatorial structure of periodic orbits of nonautonomous difference equations 𝒳ₙ₊₁ = 𝒇ₙ(𝒳ₙ) in a periodically fluctuating environment. We define the Ӷ-set to be the set of minimal periods that are not ... -
Pharmacognostic evaluation of Terminalia chebula standard extracts and finished products
(ResearchGate, 2019)The different commercial samples of Terminalia chebula (T. chebula) standard extracts and finished products were taken for elemental analysis studies and were evaluated by ICP-OES and compared with standard reference data. ...
