Sophocles And Shakespeare: A Comparative Study Of Classical And Elizabethan Tragedies
No full textThe dramatic arts, has through the years, produced notable practitioners in the various ages. A great many of these practitioners have creatively churned out works that have not only highlighted the peculiarities of their periods of dramatic history, but have also outlined the time confines of their ages, and the relevance of their works have defied geographical boundaries. Such works continue to have profound influence even on the 21st century socio-political and economic scenes, and are subjects of discourses to this day. Two of such practitioners have been Sophocles, (496 – 406 B.C.), whose works, constitute an epitome of the classical tradition, and William Shakespeare (1564 – 1616), a veritable exponent of Elizabethan drama, and ‘probably the greatest dramatist of all’. (Brocket: 1978:164) This essay is a comparative study of the works of Sophocles and tragic classism as well as Shakespeare and Elizabethan tragedy, with illustration principally from Sophocles’ Oedipus Rex and Oedipus at Colonus, and Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar and Macbeth.

Assessing the fresh-saline groundwater distribution in the Nile delta aquifer using a 3D variable-density groundwater flow model
No full textThe Nile Delta Aquifer (NDA) is threatened by salt water intrusion (SWI). This article demonstrates an approach for identifying critical salinity concentration zones using a three-dimensional (3D) variable-density groundwater flow model in the NDA. An innovative procedure is presented for the delineation of salinity concentration in 2010 by testing different simulation periods. The results confirm the presence of saline groundwater caused by SWI in the north of the NDA. In addition, certain regions in the east and southwest of the NDA show increased salinity concentration levels, possibly due to excessive groundwater extraction and dissolution of marine fractured limestone and shale that form the bedrock underlying the aquifer. The research shows that the NDA is still not in a state of dynamic equilibrium. The modeling instrument can be used for simulating future scenarios of SWI to provide a sustainable adaptation plan for groundwater resource.Water Resource

A computational environment for exhaust nozzle design
No full textThe Nozzle Design Associate (NDA) is a computational environment for the design of jet engine exhaust nozzles for supersonic aircraft. NDA may be used either to design new aircraft or to design new nozzles that adapt existing aircraft so they may be reutilized for new missions. NDA was developed in a collaboration between computer scientists at Rutgers University and exhaust nozzle designers at General Electric Aircraft Engines and General Electric Corporate Research and Development. The NDA project has two principal goals: to provide a useful engineering tool for exhaust nozzle design, and to explore fundamental research issues that arise in the application of automated design optimization methods to realistic engineering problems.Technical report hpcd-tr-2

Translation and westernisation in Turkey (from the 1840s to the 1980s)
No full textThis thesis examines the role and function translations played in Turkish history,
especially within the framework of its Westernisation movement from the mid-nineteenth
to the late twentieth centuries. A descriptive approach is adopted, aiming to identify
cultural patterns which shape and reflect translational decisions and help to a better
portrayal of the socio-cultural context of translation during the time span examined. To
this end, the thesis seeks to describe in detail historical, political, literary and linguistic
factors which have affected the translation activity.
The main assumption of this thesis is that acculturation was used as the main
strategy in translations from Western languages during the periods which were marked
with an extensive translation activity, especially during the nineteenth century and the first
decades of the Republican era. This acculturation strategy not only helped to enrich the
target literary system, bringing new literary models (genres), new subject matter,
developing the language and giving rise to a new Turkish literature, it also had an effect
upon the broader socio-cultural polysystem, especially on the process of identity creation.
The analysis of the social, political and cultural conditions and policies suggests
that the status given both to the source and target cultures has been the main factor for the
acculturation. As examined in the last part of the thesis, a shift of power relations in the
Turkish context, especially after the 1980s, marked a new kind of an acculturation
strategy and a certain movement of resistance.
The thesis concludes that there is need to know more about different translation
histories in order to learn more about the acculturation process and to move beyond a
Eurocentric view, and an interdisciplinary approach should be taken for such research
Impacts of Sea Level Rise and Groundwater Extraction Scenarios on Fresh Groundwater Resources in the Nile Delta Governorates, Egypt
No full textAs Egypt’s population increases, the demand for fresh groundwater extraction will intensify. Consequently, the groundwater quality will deteriorate, including an increase in salinization. On the other hand, salinization caused by saltwater intrusion in the coastal Nile Delta Aquifer (NDA) is also threatening the groundwater resources. The aim of this article is to assess the situation in 2010 (since this is when most data is sufficiently available) regarding the available fresh groundwater resources and to evaluate future salinization in the NDA using a 3D variable-density groundwater flow model coupled with salt transport that was developed with SEAWAT. This is achieved by examining six future scenarios that combine two driving forces: increased extraction and sea level rise (SLR). Given the prognosis of the intergovernmental panel on climate change (IPCC), the scenarios are used to assess the impact of groundwater extraction versus SLR on the seawater intrusion in the Delta and evaluate their contributions to increased groundwater salinization. The results show that groundwater extraction has a greater impact on salinization of the NDA than SLR, while the two factors combined cause the largest reduction of available fresh groundwater resources. The significant findings of this research are the determination of the groundwater volumes of fresh water, brackish, light brackish and saline water in the NDA as a whole and in each governorate and the identification of the governorates that are most vulnerable to salinization. It is highly recommended that the results of this analysis are considered in future mitigation and/or adaptation plans
