The reconstruction and electronic structures of the interfaces between single wall carbon nanotubes and ferromagnetic Co electrodes were studied in the framework of density functional theory. The obtained results revealed that there is a strong interaction between carbon nanotubes and Co electrodes. At the interface region, Top layers of Co surface

The success of microfinance programs in alleviating poverty in many countries has spurred the development of faith-based microfinance institutions. Muslims have combined certain elements in Islamic finance and microfinance to create a new program called Islamic microfinance and use it as a tool to fight poverty in their community.

The success of microfinance programmes in alleviating poverty in many countries has spurred the development of faith-based microfinance institutions. Muslims have combined certain elements in Islamic finance and microfinance to create a new programme called ‘Islamic microfinance’ and use it as a tool to fight poverty in their community. Even th

In this chapter, we describe the history, growth, and current scope of peace psychology. We demonstrate how peace psychology has been dominated by the security concerns of Western countries. Then we ask the question: How would the current content and scope of peace psychology be changed if greater weight were given to the geohistorical issues, pers

In this chapter we explore some ways in which psychological principles can inform national policies designed to prevent intergroup violence and promote intergroup harmony. We begin by briefly positioning the discipline of psychology within the larger context of scholarship in Peace and Conflict Studies (PCS), a transdisciplinary field where multipl

The objectives of this paper are two folds: firstly, to highlight the systematic approach adopted in evaluating an ASP textbook and secondly, to report the status of an ASP textbook "Advanced Media Arabic". for this purpose the paper adopts analytical method, with analyzing Arabic experts' comments and suggestions towards the proposed c

In this paper, we present a numerical scheme based on an adaptation of the standard homotopy-perturbation method (HPM) is applied to the Chaotic Rössler system. The standard HPM is converted into a hybrid numeric-analytic method called the multistage HPM (MHPM). Comparisons with the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method (RK4) and standard HPM show that

In this paper, we suggest a method to solve the multispecies Lotka-Voltera equations. The suggested method, which we call modified homotopy perturbation method, can be considered as an extension of the homotopy perturbation method (HPM) which is very efficient in solving a varety of differential and algebraic equations. The HPM is modified in order

In this paper, a new reliable modification of the homotopy perturbation method (HPM) is introduced and applied to the differential and integral equations. A comparative study between the modified homotopy method (MHPM) and the standard HPM is conducted. The efficiency of the modified technique is examined by several illustrative examples. In all ca

In this paper, the modified homotopy perturbation method is applied for analytical treatment of differential equations. The modified HPM yields an analytical solution in terms of a rapidly convergent infinite power series with easily computable terms. The efficiency of the modified technique is examined by several illustrative examples. In all case
