Abstract

Foremost, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to my supervisors Prof. Dr. Farid Tolbah, Prof. Dr. Ann A. Kadir and Dr. Mohamed I. Awad for their continuous support of my master degree and for guiding and motivating me to produce this research work. I would like to especially thank Dr. Mohamed Awad for suggesting the topic of the thesis to me and sharing with me all his profound knowledge of it. His guidance helped me in all the time of research and writing of this thesis. I could not have imagined having a better advisor and mentor for my M.Sc. study. I would like to thank in advance Eng. Mohamed Mostafa for his financial aid to purchase the experimental equipment. I will never forget all the deeds you have done for me. I would like to thank Eng. Ahmed Abdelshakour, Eng. Ahmed El-Rakaybe, Eng. Mostafa Arafa and Eng. Mohamed Zarzoura for helping me in the admission affairs and for the motivating discussions. I would like to thank Dr. Hussein Fouad for encouraging and supporting me. I would not have reached this point without the infinite support of my family. I would like to thank my mother, father and my two little sisters for being there for me and for their continuous encouragement to finish my work in the best way possible. At last but not least, I give my dearest gratitude to my wife, who gave me all the patience and passion to fulfill this work and supported me spiritually throughout my life.
