DSpace Repository

The Notre Dame University-Louaize Institutional Repository, known as DSpace, is a digital archive of the university's intellectual output accessible to others worldwide over the Internet. The institutional Repository contains a collection of research and publications written by academic authors, students, staff, alumni and research groups that have sufficient quality to be collected and preserved by the Library but which are not controlled by commercial publishers.

Notre Dame University members are eligible to engage in self-archiving of their digitally-born materials within the institutional repository. For self-archiving please review the Guidelines, Thesis Submission and the Submission Guidelines pages.

OR, you can email the publications you would like to add to: specialcollections@ndu.edu.lb

  • Integral evaluation through the binomial formula and differentiation techniques 
    Zgheib, Ghewa (Notre Dame University-Louaize, 2024-06)
    In the realm of mathematics, the evaluation of integrals plays a crucial role in various fields such as physics, engineering, and economics. Integrals represent the accumulation of quantities over a continuous range and are essential for understanding the behavior of functions and solving complex problems. Over the years, mathematicians and researchers have developed numerous techniques to evaluate integrals efficiently and accurately. This thesis consists of two parts. In the first part, we present some binomial identities, special numbers and polynomials as well as basic formulas related to ...
  • Ordinary least squares and maximum likelihood regression with cauchy errors 
    Jradi, Samah (Notre Dame University-Louaize, 2015-08)
    In this paper, we'll examine the effect of Cauchy errors in a linear model on the performance of the least squares and maximum likelihood estimators with the aid of two factors; the sample size and the Cauchy scale parameter. A sampling distribution of one hundred experiments was done to judge the estimation process in the case of least squares method. On the other hand, multivariate Newton Raphson was used to calculate the unique solution of the partial derivatives of the log lokelihood function. The uniqueness of the solution is proved for a known location parameter and unknown scale parameter. ...
  • The impact of shifting social and economic dynamics on the rise of populism in europe and its consequences : a qualitative analysis 
    Abi Rached, Carole (Notre Dame University-Louaize, 2023-06)
    The present study investigates how alterations in social and economic dynamics have contributed to the emergence of populism in Europe and influenced its socio-political outcomes. The study commences by establishing a lucid comprehension of populism, tracing its historical trends in Europe, and delineating its fundamental attributes. Subsequently, the text explores the effects of alterations in social and economic dynamics. The thesis employs a comparative case study analysis of Germany, France, and Sweden to furnish empirical evidence and a more profound comprehension of the subject matter. ...
  • Responsibility to protect : Pillar 3 the political agenda behind the military intervention in Syria 
    El Hachem, Sahar (Notre Dame University-Louaize, 2023-09)
    This thesis delves into the Responsibility to Protect Doctrine, specifically focusing on Pillar three. Pillar three presents the greatest challenge among the components of the doctrine, as it grants authorization for the use of force and involves the delicate balance between safeguarding human rights and interfering in states' sovereignty. The research investigates the influence of political dynamics within the permanent five members of the UN Security Council on the adoption of resolutions pertaining to military intervention. The primary objective is to cultivate a well-informed and balanced ...
  • The decline of socialism in Lebanon : the birth of private welfare providers 
    Daou, Daniella (Notre Dame University-Louaize, 2023-06)
    The Progressive Socialist Party (PSP) and the Armenian Revolutionary Federation in Lebanon, commonly known as Tashnag, are two organizations that are highlighted specifically in this thesis' examination of the phenomena of social democratic parties' downfall. Since its independence, confessional politics have molded Lebanon's political landscape, with a consociational structure that gives representation to the nation's 18 minority groups. Political parties in Lebanon were generally based on non-sectarian ideas before the civil war in 1975, however this thesis emphasizes the change in party ...
