The Education Department is a core unit within the faculty, responsible for planning, organizing, and overseeing educational activities. It works closely with academic staff to design and update course curricula, coordinate class schedules, and enhance the overall quality of teaching. The department aims to provide a supportive environment for effective learning and the academic development of students. It also plays a key role in academic advising, addressing educational concerns, and organizing consultation sessions. By applying modern teaching methods and responding to current educational needs, the Education Department strives to improve the learning process and contribute to student success.

The Network Design Problem has been studied extensively and in many of these models the cost is assumed to be a concave function of the loads on the links. In this paper we investigate under which conditions this is indeed the case for the communication networks. The result is presented as a theorem, the Concavity Theorem, and a list of conditions that can easily be verified. It is also shown how the theorem can be extended to other applications, like in the area of road transportation.

In this study a composite cylindrical shell is loaded under a steady-state axisymmetric voltage and analyzed using a semi-analytical finite element method. An attempt has been made to define a critical buckling voltage for a single layer cylindrical composite shell under a clamped-clamped boundary condition at different fiber orientation and length to radius ratios. The voltage to cause instability is derived from fundamental equations of the piezoelectric constitutive relations. Critical buckling voltage applied to a cylindrical composite shell can be determined by employing a piezoelectric actuator.
