Issues and challenges surrounding library management
(2013-11-07)This keynote address deals with the changing role of the academic library and how library administrators and suppliers are responding. John McDonald was appointed Associate Vice President and Chief Information Officer for ... -
Iterative Methods for the Numerical Solutions of Boundary Value Problems
(2014-06)The aim of this thesis is twofold. First of all, in Chapters 1 and 2, we review the well-known Adomian Decomposition Method (ADM) and Variational Iteration Method (VIM) for obtaining exact and numerical solutions for ... -
Iterative Methods for the Solution of a Steady State Biofilter Model
(2017-11)Biofilter modeling helps in understanding the biofiltration process and designing of full-scale biofilters. The biofilter models with complex kinetics do not have analytical solutions and numerical algorithms are typically ... -
It’s Not You, It’s Us: Relationship-Based Factors That Predict Infidelity
(Oxford University Press, 2022-07-12)Infidelity is often defined as perceived as a violation of relationship exclusivity rules, and many view infidelities as immoral. Thus, one can imagine the importance of understanding why up to a fifth of research samples ... -
