guidance of many people whom I am sincerely thankful. Deepest gratitude is to my
supervisor Prof. Khalid Al-Begain. It has been an honor to be one of his PhD students. I

Also I would like to thank my second supervisor of the supervisory committee, Dr. Gaius

I am as ever, especially indebted to my parents, for their love and support throughout my
life. Moreover, I also wish to thank my wife and kids, for their support and understanding
during my study. Finally, my sincere thanks go to my friends, who shared their love and
experiences with me.
