    • Free convection and mass transfer flow past an infinite vertical porous plate with dufour and soret effects in a porus medium 

      Alam, Md. Shariful; Rahman, Mohammad Mansur (BRAC University, 2005)
      A numerical solution of unsteady free convection and mass transfer flow is presented when a viscous, incompressible fluid flows along an infinite vertical porous plate embedded in a porous medium. Both the Dufour and Soret ...

      Khan, H.T. Abdullah; Raeside, Robert (BRAC University, 2005)
      The paper aims at examining the socio-demographic changes over years and their impact on the future age-sex structure of population in Bangladesh. The mechanisms of change in the population are reviewed and it is shown ...
    • Interaction in second language classrooms 

      Chowdhury, Shaheena (BRAC University, 2005)
      Dealing with reticent students in a second language classroom is one the major issues a language teacher is faced with, and it becomes an exasperating experience when the students are from multicultural background who do ...
    • Parsing Bangla using LFG: an introduction 

      Haque, Muhammad Nasimul; Khan, Mumit (BRAC University, 2005)
      This paper is intended to introduce LFG (Lexical Functional Grammar) for parsing Bangla. The LFG formalism, which has evolved from extensive computational, linguistic, and psycholinguistic research, provides a simple set ...
