Qualifications

B.Sc.

  • In Agric. Mech. , Faculty of Agriculture , Mansoura Univ., Egypt. General grade " Excellent", 1976.

M.Sc.

  • In Agric. Mech. ,1981, Faculty of Agric, Mansoura Univ., 1981."Studies on Utilization of Cotton Stalks in Manufacturing Woods".

  • Although this Thesis was submitted and defended from About 20 years, it still has the uppermost importance nowadays. The reason for that it provided a secure and economical solution to a proper utilization of agricultural wastes . Leading of course to protect the environment from fire hazards and contamination. Because the alternative solution is to dispose of them by burning on the ground, making black smokes over the cities. That would affect the national health and causes serious diseases over years.

  • The results of the Thesis proved the high suitability of cotton stalks as a row material for particle boards production.

Ph.D.

  • In Agric. Mech. on a channel between Mansoura Univ., Egypt and Newcastle Upon Tyne Univ., England, 1986." Economical Machinery Systems for Small Farms".

  • The subject of the Ph.D. thesis was concerned with management and planning for economical mechanized operations in cereal crops. The application of computer techniques to manage the farm equipments was also covered. Computer models were designed to simulate the different systems of growing cereal crops and select the optimum machinery according to field conditions. The computer program is available in FORTRAN Language.
