Factors affecting students tendency of Univercity students to Lecture Notes

Introduction: Many studies detected factors contributing to the students’ tendency to lecture notes. This study aimed at evaluating the factors affecting students tendency to lecture notes in Hormozgan University of Medical Sciences. Methods: In this descriptive study, 179 students from medicine, nursing & midwifery, health, and Paramedicine schools were selected through stratified random...

Ground States of Semi-linear Pdes

These are lecture notes from a course given at the summer school on ‘Current topics in Mathematical Physics’, held at Luminy in September 2013. We discuss ground state solutions for semi-linear PDEs in R . In particular, we prove their existence, radial symmetry and uniqueness up to translations.

Smartphones and Our Students:A Case of Undergraduate Students in an EFL Context

Immoderate smart phone usage usually makes the students addicted to it and spends less time reading lecture notes and textbooks. This study aims to determine university students' usage of smart phones and perceived rejection of paper books in an EFL context. The study collected data through a 20-item structured questionnaire consisting of the general characteristics, the number and hours of gen...

Dynamic Stability Analysis of a Beam Excited by a Sequence of Moving Mass Particles

In this paper, the dynamic stability analysis of a simply supported beam carrying a sequence of moving masses is investigated. Many applications such as motion of vehicles or trains on bridges, cranes transporting loads along their span, fluid transfer pipe systems and the barrel of different weapons can be represented as a flexible beam carrying moving masses. The periodical traverse of masses...
