Faculty Competency by Design: A Model for Institutional Transformation

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...

Design a Model for Developing Leadership Competency for Steel Industry Managers Using the Grounded Theory

The purpose of this research was to make and provide a model for developing the competence of the leadership of the steel industry managers. The methodology of this research was applied and exploratory in terms of the purpose and data gathering method was mixed. In qualitative stage, after a deep interview, data gathering has been done based on the Grounded Theory and by using a questionnaire o...

Model Transformation Design Patterns

In this document, a brief overview of my doctoral research is presented. In model-driven engineering (MDE), most problems are solved using model transformation. An efficient process to solving these problems is to apply reusable patterns while solving them. Finding reusable design patterns to specific subsets of problems helps to decrease the time and cost needed to solve them. My doctoral rese...
