World Literature in the World? Kahf ’s The Girl in the Tangerine Scarf and the Transnational Reading Public
(BRILL, 2021)
Criticized for being too Euro- and Americentric, world literature scholarship tends to center on the American implications of this shortcoming, with little discussion of world literature beyond these centers. This paper ...
Rethinking the Bottom Bun: Assessing Topic Closers
(2021-05)
This study focusses on the learnability of a model for topic closers. Topic closers are the various approaches through which a paragraph can be ended. The model comprises a total of 10 topic closers, each of which is termed ...
Effects of BIM in Enhancing Prefabricated Construction
(2021-12)
The use of prefabricated construction is not new in the industry. However, recent advances in digital technology, predominantly Building Information Modelling (BIM), has created renewed momentum for extensive use of this ...
Corrections to Yukawa couplings from higher dimensional operators in a natural SUSY SO(10) and HL-LHC implications
(Springer, 2021-01-11)
We consider a class of unified models based on the gauge group SO(10) which with appropriate choice of Higgs representations generate in a natural way a pair of light Higgs doublets needed to accomplish electroweak symmetry ...
Where Islamic Visual Theory and Western Pictorial Tradition Meet: 360° Panoramic Photography’s Two-Dimensional Image Projections and Sacred Spaces
(International Panorama Council, 2021)
Using this author's ongoing project Sacred Spaces of New England and Hans Belting's book Florence and Baghdad: Renaissance Art and Arab Science as starting points, this paper compares and contrasts Islamic visual theory ...
Computational Fluid Dynamics of Energy Separation in Vortex Tube
(2021-05)
Devil’s Tube is the name that some researchers chose for Ranque-Hilsch vortex tube because of the ambiguity of its working mechanism. In an attempt to unveil the principle of energy separations in this tube, this study ...
Qualitatively Examining Self-Regulation and Affect of First-Year Writing Students
(2021-05)
Many first-year university students find it challenging to navigate a new environment while also managing limited time, additional responsibilities, and an increasingly rigorous course load. Current research seeks effective ...
Droplet Geometry and Device Configuration Effects on Droplet Actuation in Open Digital Microfluidics
(2021-12)
Digital microfluidics (DMF) is the manipulation of liquid droplets over an array of micro electrodes. It is considered as a new technology that facilitate several applications such as chemical synthesis, biological assays, ...
