About Faculty of Science

Faculty of Science

The Faculty of Science is the core at the University of Tripoli, as it was the first that established in this prestigious university. It is also the first faculty of science in Libya. At the present, it includes ten scientific departments: Departments of Zoology, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Botany, Geology, Computer Science and Statistics, Atmospheric science and geophysics. It currently works to create a new department of Archaeology in order to study the scientific and research side of the historical heritage of the Libyan people. Graduates of this college have worked in various governmental sectors, such as oil exploration, extraction and refining, chemical industries complexes in Abu Kamash and Ras Al-Anuf, as well as plastics companies in production and manufacturing, and in factories for soap, cleaning materials and others. They were also recruited by the education sector in different research and pedagogical areas.

 

The graduates of this faculty have led the scientific process for many years and still represent the first building block in all colleges of science, and some other colleges in all Libyan universities for the past five decades. The scope of work for graduates included Faculties of Medicine (in the field of basic sciences, biochemistry, anatomy, histology and microbiology), many departments in the Faculty of Agriculture, general engineering, chemical and geological engineering; in particular, medical technology and pharmacy, and the Faculty of Economics and Arts. The Faculty of Science provides teaching assistants to other faculties and universities in the Libyan state.

 

The Faculty of Science is the first to create graduate studies programs in Libya, despite the nature of graduate studies in basic sciences, which need capabilities other than competent professors. Teaching staff in this institution graduated from international universities in the West and the East (USA, UK, Australia, and other European countries). They graduated from universities that are well-known for their high academic standard.

 

Having obtained their first university degree or higher degrees of specialization from Libya or abroad, graduates of Faculty of Science worked for industrial and nuclear research centers, petroleum sector, marine life, biotechnology, plastics, and other specialized research centers.

 

The Faculty has also enriched the scientific research movement in the fields of basic sciences in the Libyan state through the issuance of refereed basic science journal.

The Role of Remote Sensing in Supporting Urban Planning in Libya a Case Study of Tripoli Area

Abstract Libyan cities have experienced a period of rapid urban expansion in the past decades. Urban growth as an example has been the focus of urban researches for a long time. Due to the complexity of the urban growth process, it’s very difficult to model urban growth using traditional urban models. Recently, urban researches are keen on a new technology, Remote Sensing. Remote Sensing technique was applied in many aspects of life, due to ability of covering and representing the real world around us. In urban research, field researches set up many applications to simulate the urban phenomena such as sprawl process, landuse change trends, landcover...etc. Remote sensing technology helps to extract and organize the data about such phenomenon. In addition to understand their spatial relationships, and provides a powerful means to planners and decision makers for analyzing and information about a place or a phenomenon. This will have great impact on the quality of the decision-making. The study uses Spot 5 images, topographic maps which derived from aerial photographs for the year 1980. The remote sensing image interpretation and change detection to review the urban expansion for the study area in (1980 and 2009).Spot satellite image of 2009 and Landuse maps1980 will be used to derive information on urban land use in the study area. The visual interpretation is used to extract landuse. The mutual use of Remote Sensing (RS) and Geographic Information System (GIS) describes the overall physics changes of the study area. This effort can be considered as an application case in this field (RS-based town planning information system), where this thesis show how that system can be useful of using this technology and supporting the sector by developing a model that can support the process of planning and maintain what remained of the agricultural lands to prevent them from encroachment by the urban growth.

Synthesis and Study of Schiff’s Base Ligands Derivedfrom Reaction of Benzil with Aliphatic and Aromaticamines and Their Metal Complexes with Cu(II), Ni(II),Cd(II), Pb(II), Pd(II), Hg(II), and VO2+.

Abstract Five symmetrical Schiff base ligands[four bi-dentate and one tetradentate(L3- L7)] and two un-symmetrical bi-dentate and tri-dentate (L1-L2) ligands with the Nitrogen and oxygen chromophore were isolated inpure form and good yield. The ligands were fully characterized by elemental analyses, melting point, IR, H1- &13C- NMR, and mass spectra.The Schiff bases L1 and L2 were successfully coordinated to Pd(II) and VO2+ ions respectively and these complexes were characterized using elemental analyses, IR and mass spectra. The interesting result by mass spectrum of VO2+ complex of L2 shows parent peak at 524 confirming that the formula of the complex as [VOL2(ac.ac.)2H2O] in which the complex has an octahedral geometry.The symmetrical Schiff bases (L3-L7) were also successfully coordinated to Nickel (II), Copper (II), Lead (II), Cadmium (II), and Mercury (II) ions to form their corresponding complexes. The total twenty five metal (II) XI Schiff base complexes of (L3-L7) were isolated. These complexes were characterized by elemental analyses, melting points, IR, mass spectra technique. 1H &13C-NMR Spectra in DMSO d6 for Pb, Cd, and Hg complexes show the expected number of peaks with deferent chemical shift comparing with the free ligands in the same solvent. The interesting result by mass spectrum of Ni(L7)2 complex compred with of L7 spectra shows parent peak at 977 confirming that the ligand L7 has lost one proton to give the desire complex in square planar geometry.

تأتيرات الحيود في المرنانات غير المستقره

تم دراسة المرنانات غير المستقرة في المنظومة الليزريه بشكل عام والتركيز على أحد المشاكل التي يواجهها هذا النوع من المرنانات وهي تأتيرات الحيود. فرغم ان هذه الظاهرة تعتبرالوسيله التي يخرج عن طريقها الشعاع من المنظومه الليزريه الا انها تسبب في فقدا كبيرا في قدرة الشعاع الليزري الخارج . احدي الطرق المقترحه للتقليل من تاتيرات الحيود السلبيه في هذه الحاله هو احدات تدرج في المرآه , فقد تم في هذا البحث مقارنة نتائج متقاربه وعليه تم استنباط معادلة خاصه بالحيود عبر مرآة بتدرجين وحساب القيمة الذاتية للشعاع الليزري الخارج وتحدي مدي التحسن في التقليل من الخسارة الناتجه من خلال التغير في قيمة عدد فرنيل وذلك بمقارنة العلاقات البيانية لمرآة عادية ومرآة بتدريج واحد وبتدرجين للمرنان نفسه , و تم أيضا دراسة تاثير القيمة الذاتية بعرض الدرجة في المرآة وعرض المنحنيات الخاصة بها . Abstract Unstable resonators in laser systems have been studied in general and the focus was on one of the problem facing this type of resonators namely the effect of diffraction .although diffraction Is the mean to get the laser rays out of the system, it causes major loss of power in the output If it is treated adequately. One of the suggested method to reduce the negative effect of diffraction is to make a gradual step on the output mirror. a comparison has been made between the results for a single step mirror with result from previous study . the two results agreed with each other to an acceptable range . an equation for a two-step mirror was derived and the Eigen Values of the outgoing laser beam were calculated . the amount of improvement in the output power was calculated by changing the value of Fresnel number and comparing the situation for an ordinary mirror , single step mirror and two-step mirror. The results show good improvement for the two-step mirror. also the dependence of the step with on the eigen value was studied. We can conclude from the current work that by introducing certain step width specific width could improve the output power from unstable resonators by minimizing the negative diffraction effect. The amount of improvement seems to increase with increasing number of steps. For future work we suggest that more exact methods to calculate the eigen values, such as proni method, should be tried and the effect of the output mirror tilt must be taken into account.
