Shear Strength of Reinforced Concrete Beams Made with Recycled Coarse Aggregate
(2016-07)The Bee'ah's Waste Management Complex in the Emirate of Sharjah, UAE, has been producing aggregate from construction and demolition wastes for quite some time. However, such a product has not been utilized in structural ... -
Short-term Wind Power Prediction
(2014-06)Environmental considerations in addition to energy crises have forced many countries to consider alternative energy sources; renewable energies are known as the best alternatives. Among renewable energies, wind power is ... -
Simulation of the Dynamic Effects of Wave Slamming on Flexible Marine Structures
(2022-12)Flexible marine structures such as open piled jetties, which are comprised of a deck supported on piles, are commonly used in coastal areas around the world. Due to certain conditions, these structures are sometimes exposed ... -
Simultaneous Interpreting of Cultural References
(2017-11)Cultural misunderstandings can lead to serious problems especially when dealing with the political discourse of iconic leaders, such as Former President Muammar Gaddafi of Libya. Inaccurate rendition for any political ... -
A Six Sigma Define Phase Methodology for Service-Level Compliance Processes
(2007-12)The world economy has been recently experiencing the shift towards services, a phenomenon that is referred to as services-based or services-led economy. A service generally combines activities of a more intangible nature, ... -
Skopos for Children's Literature: Translation and Commentary
(2014-01)Literature represents a nation's culture and plays a vital role in the bringing up of children. As such and unlike adult literature, translating children's literature (CL) poses difficulties for translators simply because ... -
Skopos in Advertising Translation into Arabic
(2015-05)Current definitions identify advertising to be paid mass communication designed to persuade or influence the customer. In today's world, we are witnessing significant growth in the volume of international trade as a result ... -
Sliding Resistance of Serrated-Base Quay Walls
(2021-11)Waterfront retaining structures, such as quay walls, play important roles in the safety and operation of ports and harbours. Designing waterfront structures under critical loads and conditions is one of the important topics ... -
Socially Motivated Approach to Simulate Negotiation Process
(2014-05)Automated negotiation is treated as multi-disciplinary area of rigorous research consisting of Multi Agent Systems (MAS) such as optimization, decision support system, game theory and e-commerce. Thus, automated negotiations ... -
Soil Characterization Utilizing GPR Technique
(2017-11)Engineering properties of soil, such as shear strength parameters, water content, degree of saturation, and permeability are essential for safe and economic design of any structure involving soil structure ... -
Soil Stabilization against Internal Erosion Using Cement and Fiber-Cement Mixture
(2014-05)Internal erosion of soil is the main cause of failure in many engineering hydraulic structures especially embankment dams. Understanding the internal erosion behavior and stabilizing the soil against this phenomenon is a ... -
Solution of Fractional Differential Equations: Transform and Iterative Methods Approach
(2019-12)Fractional calculus is a novel and highly active area of research in the literature as it has a wide spectrum of applications in the physical sciences and engineering. In this thesis, we study the numerical solution of ... -
Solution of Fractional Differential Equations: Variational Iteration Approach
(2019-12)This thesis discusses a newly introduced numerical scheme for fractional differential equations. The strategy is an extension of the Variational Iteration Method (VIM) and is suitable for boundary value problems (BVPs). ... -
Solving Fourth Order Differential Non-Linear Equations, Existence and Uniqueness
(2017-05)The aim of this thesis is to present a novel numerical approach for the solution of a class of non-linear fourth-order boundary value problems. The method is based on embedding Green's function into some fixed point iteration ... -
Solving The 2D Biharmonic Equation: A Numerical Approach Based On Spline Collocation
(2016-07)In this thesis, several numerical methods, that are based on spline basis functions, are suggested for the solution of a general class of fourth order boundary value problems. In particular, The two-dimensional biharmonic ... -
Some applications of the Hyperbolic Metric
(2015-06)This thesis is an expository of the hyperbolic geometry in general and the hyperbolic metric for several domains in particular. The thesis also focuses on the differences between the Euclidean geometry and hyperbolic ... -
