It aims at examining other characters' verbal responses to Hamlet’s impolite speech acts and identifying which response strategies are more frequently associated with which impoliteness strategies. To achieve these objectives, the study collates (32) impolite speech acts along with their responses from Hamlet to represent its data for analysis. Out of these data, (15) examples are randomly selected to analyze the impoliteness strategies utilizing Culpeper’s (1996/2011/2017) and Culpeper, Bousfield and Wichmann (2003) models. Moreover, Bousfield’s (2008) model was adopted to account for the interlocutors' responses to impoliteness. The findings of the study show that mock impoliteness, bald on record impoliteness and positive impoliteness are repeated in the play, of which mock impoliteness is the most frequently used strategy. Concerning the response strategies, the defensive and defensive-offensive strategies are frequently used by the characters in Hamlet, but the most frequent one is the defensive strategy. These impoliteness strategies and their responses have adversely affected the relationship amongst characters in the play and its general atmosphere. © 2022 JJMLL Publishers/Yarmouk University.

The purpose of this study was to found any association between the IFIH1 rs1990760 polymorphism and T1D in Iraqi children. There were 75 children with type 1 diabetes participated in this study between January and March of 2021. RBS, serum fructosamine, HbA1c and pancreatic beta cell autoantibodies were estimated in all samples. Three SNPs in IFIH1 gene polymorphisms (rs35667974, rs35732034 and rs1990760) were investigated for their association with the development of T1D. SNP of rs1990760 had three genotypes in patients and controls (GG, GA, AA). The wild type GG genotype was more frequent in controls than patients (32% vs. 22.67%), while the mutant genotype (AA) was more frequent in patients (30.66%) than controls (22.67%) with no significant difference in both. The study was revealed IFIH1 polymorphism not associated with T1D in Iraqi children. © 2022 Elsevier B.V.Interferon induced helicase 1; Polymorphism; Type 1 diabetesThanks to the laboratory staff in the diabetic and endocrine glands center and Bint Al-Huda Children's Hospital in ThiQar governorate for their cooperation in accomplishing this study.Albishi, L.A., AlAmri, E., Mahmoud, A.A., Relationships among consanguinity, family history, and the onset of type 1 diabetes in children from Saudi Arabia (2021) Prim.

Moreover, the cooling coil is characterized by a highly nonlinear dynamic subject to multiple inputs, coupling between the latent and sensible heat transfer modes, uncertain disturbances, and strong dependence of the overall heat transfer coefficient on the flow type, all causing significant challenges when it comes to modeling. Therefore, a hybrid layer structure model was adopted in this study to overcome these challenges. The new approach used two different optimization methods, Neural Networks' Weights and Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy, and the hybrid layers tuned by the Gauss-Newton algorithm (GNA). The proposed model covered three types of fluid flow to represent the dynamic behavior of the water-side and air-side heat transfer coefficients, each of which was divided into seven clusters and had its unique TS consequence. This study also administered meaningful fitness tests in the responses of the eleven independent variables that serve as its inputs. Furthermore, its application shows the control performance saving more than 44% of HVAC system energy. Based on the results, it was concluded that the proposed model is suitable for estimating energy and cost savings for electric power and water flow rate efficiency. In addition, the response of all types of output flow can be evaluated when changing eleven independent variables that are manipulated by three different controllers. © 2022 Elsevier LtdCooling coil model;

Both demulsifiers are prepared by the reflux method. Oleic Ethylene Diamine (OED) was prepared by the reaction between Oleic acid and ethylene di amine. Methyl aniline (p-toluidine) was prepared by the reaction between oleic acid and methyl aniline. FTIR and H.NMR spectra were used to diagnose the synthesized demulsifier's structure. A comparison between these types of demulsifiers was made. The photos show the amount of separation between the water and oil phases. Demulsifiers showed high efficiency in the separation process of water from crude oil. © 2022 National Information and Documentation Center.Crude oil; Demulsifier; Separation process; Synthesis of amideJoseph, P, Riva, (2019) World Petroleum Resources And Reserves, 2, pp. 13-14. , Published by Rout ledge of Taylor and Francis Group; Khathi, Mohammed T., Ali Al-Yasiri, Ali A., A comparative study of Iraqi crude oil taken from the Nasiriyah refinery with various local and global crude oils (2016) JOURNAL OF THIQAR SCIENCE, 6 (1), pp. 70-77; Holmberg, K., Shah, D.

To efficiently optimize such a complicated solution, the creation of a high-precision optimization algorithm is critical. Hence, this research proposes a Multi-strategy Slime Mould Algorithm (MSMA) to determine the optimal operating rules for a complicated hydropower multiple reservoir prediction problem. The MSMA system proposed employs an effective wrap food mechanism to strengthen local and global capability; an enhanced solution quality (ESQ) to promote solution quality; and the interior-point method to implement an influential exploitation mechanism. The numerical testing of 23 test functions demonstrates the efficiency of the MSMA algorithm in solving global optimization issues. The newly developed method is then used to optimize the operation of a complex eight-reservoir hydropower system, with the proposed MSMA approach resulting in ∼0.999% of an ideal global solution, according to the optimal findings. The results of the multi-reservoir system show that proposed MSMA method was able to generate about 16.6% more power than the SMA. Consequently, the recommended method outperforms the other well-known optimization methods for maximizing power in the multi-reservoir system. Finally, this study also provides a useful tool for optimizing the complicated hydropower multiple reservoir problems. © 2022 Elsevier B.V.Hydropower; Multi-reservoir; Multi-strategy; Operation; Optimization; Slime Mould AlgorithmGlobal optimization; Linear programming; Molds; Global solutions; Multi reservoir; Multi-reservoir systems; Multi-strategy; Operation; Optimisations; Power; Slime mold algorithm; Slime moulds; Solution quality; Hydroelectric powerNatural Science Foundation of Zhejiang Province, ZJNSF: LGG20F030009The authors would like to reveal their appreciation and gratitude to the respected reviewers and editors for their constructive comments.

The density matrix equations, coupled with the continuity-current equation, are solved numerically to address the interaction between all the states, which is impossible with the rate equation modeling. This modeling allowed us to obtain quantum efficiency (QE). Using the orthogonalized plane wave assumption for WL-QD, the momentum matrix elements of QD-QD, QD-wetting layer (WL), WL-barrier transitions are calculated. Results are simulated in both the excitonic and non-excitonic (electron-hole, eh) cases and exhibit the importance of adding the QD layer. The results confirm the importance of adding the intermediate band (QD layer). Both band-to-band recombination rates and relaxation rates in the DQD structure are modulated according to the energy difference between DQD states. Compared to the eh model, the excitonic model reduces the QD-QD relaxation rates and all band-to-band recombination rates. The quantum efficiency (QE) is attaining at longer recombination and relaxation times that are confirmed depending on the wider energy difference by manipulating the transitions of the DQD structure. © 2022 Elsevier LtdBand-to-band; Double quantum dot solar cell; Electron-hole model; Excitonic model; Quantum efficiency; Recombination rateLee, Y., Youn, J., Ryu, M., Kim, J., Jang, J., CdSe quantum dot cathode buffer for inverted organic bulk hetero-junction solar cells (2012) Org.

In this work, three types of ZnO-CdS composites have been synthesized and applied as photocatalysts for the degradation of Rhodamine B dye in aqueous solutions. The optical and morphological properties of the prepared composites were characterized by different techniques. X-ray diffraction patterns used to identify the phase and to calculate the crystallites size of composites. The morphology and particle size of the composites were analyzed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Energy Dispersive X-Ray Analysis coupled with transmission electron microscopy used to measure the composites elemental content. Electronic and optical properties of the solid composites were analyzed by diffraction spectrophotometer. TEM results revealed that all ZnO-CdS composites have homogenous shape with (20-30 nm) particles size. XRD characterization indicates that the composites pattern belongs to wurtzite structure and the calculated crystallites size also in the nanometer. EDS results revealed that all ZnO-CdS composites contains only oxygen, Zinc, Cadmium and sulfur without impurities. UV-Vis measurements showed that the energy-gap of composites significantly decreased after heat treatment and all of prepared composites absorb visible light. The photocatalytic activity of prepared composites shows an excellent performance for RhB dye degradation in aqueous solutions. © 2019 National Information and Documentation Center (NIDOC)Composite; Nanoparticles; Optical; Photodegradation; Rhodamine BThis work did not receive any fund from any organization and funded by authors private money.

Investigate hypoxia status by measuring the concentration of HIF-1α as a prognostic factor of hypoxia and its relation to tumor suppressor protein p53, estradiol, tumor grade, tumor size, and lymph node metastases of adult female with breast cancer. This study is a case control study which includes sixty-five adult female patients with breast mass. Out of 65 patients, a 44 (68%) were with fibroadenoma in the age range of 18-42 (32.55±6.40) and the other 21 (32%) cases with breast cancer type invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) aged 32-80 (56± 14.4). Most IDC cases were in grade III and sizes T2 and T3. The other 50 healthy females, as a control group were in mean age of 44.56±16.85. Preoperative blood samples were collected for biochemical analysis by the ELISA method. A significant elevation in serum HIF-1α, P53 and E2 (p<0.001) in IDC cases as compared to fibroadenoma and the control group, there was a positive relation between HIF-1α, P53, and E2. HIF-1 α, P53, and E2 were significantly elevated in the patients with grade III and tumor stage T3 than grade II and stages T2 and T1. A significant elevation was found in the subgroup of positive LNM for all preoperative serum levels of parameters compared with the negative LNM patients group. HIF-1α, p53, and E2 were useful markers of invasion depth of tumor or LNM in breast cancer staging and the interactions between HIF-1α, p53, and E2 signaling pathways may be of major clinical significance in cancer therapies through targeting the lowering of severity of hypoxia and angiogenesis.

The study consists of two groups, the first group includes 93 patients with CAD and the second group includes 81 subjects with no sign, no symptom and no history of CAD. Genotyping of LPL gene polymorphism [HindIII T↔G (SNP)] was done by PCR-RFLP. The results of present study revealed study show that TT and TG genotypes of LPL gene polymorphism [HindIII T↔G (SNP)] was found to be non-significantly increase the risk of CAD with respect to those of the GG genotypes of LPL gene polymorphism [HindIII T↔G (SNP)] respectively. Moreover, the outcomes of the study show that a significant increase of serum triglycerides concentration in the TT genotype of LPL gene polymorphism [HindIII T↔G (SNP)] when compared with GG genotype of LPL gene polymorphism [HindIII T↔G (SNP)] in patients with CAD. This study conclude that the LPL gene polymorphism [HindIII T↔G (SNP)] was not associated with CAD and the TT genotype of LPL gene polymorphism [HindIII T↔G (SNP)] associated with increase triglycerides in patients with CAD.

In the present study, an extract of llex paraguarients St. Hill in distill water was firstly prepared. This extract was added to 1 mM of Cupric sulfate solution, and the change in the color of the solution from colorless to colored solution was detected. This change in color indicates that there is a formation of CuNPs. Secondly, Copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) were prepared by the chemical reduction method and characterized by the utility of different techniques such as: UV-Vis spectrometer, FTIR spectroscopy and SEM with EDAX. The evaluation of the toxicity of CuNPs was performed on human lung carcinoma cell (A549). The half-maximal inhibitory concentration IC50 of CuNPs for human lung carcinoma cell (A549) was determined. CuNPs suppressed proliferation and viability of carcinoma lung cells. Overall, the results show that the IC50's of the prepared Cu NPs were cytotoxic to cancerous lung cells © 2022.

The importance of these techniques has grown significantly as various real-life applications in fields like medicine, banking, or transport are accompanied by increasing security concerns. Various effective cryptography schemes were proposed so far in the literature; however, each of them exhibits certain flaws and limitations with respect to different vital aspects. To overcome these issues, we propose a hybrid scheme for securing digital images by encrypting them using a dual security approach. More precisely, we use first a chaotic map for scrambling the image pixels, and then, we apply the singular-value decomposition method for decomposing the permuted image to provide very strong security. Individually each of these steps has already been considered in the cryptographic literature; however, their combination has not been proposed before this contribution. Experimental results on benchmark data validate our proposed scheme and various performance evaluation metrics indicate that it shows promising qualities in terms of security (against various attacks) and sensitivity in comparison with baseline methods. © 2022 The Author(s)Chaotic map; Cryptography; Encryption; Image security; SVDBenchmarking; Chaotic systems; Cryptography; Image processing; Chaotic map; Digital image; Encryption technique; Hybrid approach; Hybrid scheme; Image security; In-field; Real-life applications; Security frameworks; Sensitive datas; Singular value decompositionArunkumar, S., Subramaniyaswamy, V., Vijayakumar, V., Chilamkurti, N., Logesh, R., SVD-based robust image steganographic scheme using RIWT and DCT for secure transmission of medical images (2019) Meas J Int Meas Confed, 139, pp. 426-437; Baek, J., Safavi-Naini, R., Susilo, W., Public key encryption with keyword search revisited (2008) Lect Notes Comput Sci, 5072, pp. 1249-1259. , (Including Subser.

Methods: Different concentrations of the ZnNPs (50, 100, and 200 μg/ml) alone and combined with albendazole (ALZ, 100 μg/ml) were treated with hydatid cyst protoscoleces obtained from liver of infected sheep for 5–60 min in vitro and ex vivo. Eosin exclusion examination was used to assess the viability of protoscoleces. The induction of apoptosis in hydatid cyst protoscoleces was assessed by measurement of the Caspase-3 activity of protoscoleces treated with various concentrations of ZnNPs. Results: The size of green synthesized ZnNPs was ranged from 30 to 80 nm, most of these nanoparticles were between 50 and 60 nm in size. In vitro, the highest scolicidal effect of ZnNPs was observed at the concentration of 200 μg/ml, where it killed 81.6% of protoscolices. While the combination of these nanoparticles with ALZ, especially at the concentration of 200 μg/ml, completely killed the protoscolices after 10 min’ exposure. However, compared to in vitro assay, the drugs tested took longer to show their protoscolicidal effect. Conclusion: Based on the obtained results, ZnNPs particularly in combination with albendazole displayed the potent protoscolicidal in vitro and ex vivo as an intraperitoneal model of administration of agents to hydatid cyst treatment; nevertheless, additional investigations are mandatory to evaluate the efficacy and safety Zn NPs as a favorable protoscolicidal agent in clinical setting. © 2022Apoptosis; Caspase-3; Cystic echinococcosis; Ex vivo; In vitro; ScolicidalMoro, P., Schantz, P.M., Echinococcosis: a review (2009) Int.

In this article, the fear of predator in prey species has been introduced. Also, we have considered that the predation of both prey and predator occurs according to the Beddington-DeAngelis type functional response. The predator is thought to be acting as a shelter for the super predator species. It is anticipated that a constant amount of increased food will be delivered to super predators due to their dread of predators and their refuge behavior, and that predators will benefit from this excess food. The non-negativity and boundedness of solutions of the prosed model have been examined. The system's local and global stability at the interior equilibrium points has been explored. The existence condition of Hopf bifurcation of the system with respect to fear f of predator has been studied. From the analysis of the model, it is found that the fear f of predator may be responsible for the system's stability. It's also been discovered that providing extra food to the super predator may help to keep the system in check. Further, it is found that the refuge of predator to the super predator has the ability to stabilize the predator-prey system. Finally, some intriguing numerical simulation findings were provided in order to study the model's dynamics. © 2022 Elsevier LtdAdditional food; Beddington-DeAngelis functional response; Fear; Hopf bifurcation; Refuge; Stability analysisEcology; Predator prey systems; System stability; Additional food; Beddington-De Angelis functional response; Beddington-deangelis type functional response; Fear; Predator-prey modeling; Prey species; Prey-predator; Prey-refuge; Refuge; Stability analyze; Hopf bifurcationPrince Sultan University, PSUPrincess Nourah bint Abdulrahman University, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, Researchers Supporting Project number (PNURSP2022R14).

A superhydrophilicdemulsifier was created by functionalizing nanoparticles with [TBIP] thiadiazole derivative to improve their hydrophobicity and hydrophilicity.Thestructural characteristics and morphology of the prepared nanodemulsifier were investigated by (FT-IR), 1H-NMR, (XRD), (AFM), (FESEM) and (TEM).A bottle test was also used to assess the performance of the nanodemulsifier. The bottle test results revealed that nanocomposite has the highest nanodemulsifier efficiency, and crude oil reduction was accomplished in 90 minutes. Furthermore, the impacts of temperature and concentration revealed that both elements influence the stability of water in an oil emulsion. The separation efficiency of the prepared nanocomposite Fe2O3.B2O3-TBIP was compared with that of the commercial demulsifier (RP96BQ), used in the oil field and under the same conditions. The demulsification percentage of the prepared nanocomposite was (79.3 %) while the commercial demulsifier reached (86.2 %). © 2019 National Information and Documentation Center (NIDOC).Crude oil; demulsification process; Fe2O3.B2O3-TBIP; hydrothermal method; nanodemulsifierGogotsi, Y., (2006) Nanomaterials, , United States of America on: Taylor & Francis; Bonazzi, M., (2013) Nanotechnologies: Principles, Applications, Implications and Hands-on Activities; Yagoub, H., Complex membrane of cellulose and chitin nanocrystals with cationic guar gum for oil/water separation (2019) J.

Annealing treatment on AZ91 alloy was used in this study to improve some properties. Mechanical properties including microhardness and tensile strength that improved after annealing, where the yield point, tensile strength, and hardness are increased from 133 to 160 MPa, 147–210 MPa, and 78–96 HV, respectively. The microstructure was investigated for annealed specimens after coating by indium and titanium metals using DC sputtering technique by XRD analysis and SEM/EDS exam, where α-Mg solution grains surrounded by coarse β-Mg17Al12 precipitates were observed after annealing treatment at (473 K) for (90 min), the coating elements (In and Ti) also observed in each XRD and SEM examination with their phases. Corrosion behavior in a simulated body fluid (SBF) of as cast, annealed, coated specimens was studied which showed enhancing in corrosion resistance to obtain protection efficiency equal to 72.74 and 68.42% after coating by In and Ti, respectively. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.Biodegradability;

The electronic properties of the anticancer drugs/ZnONS studied by using DFT method, which implemented in the quantum espresso package. Our finding shown that ZnONS has a semiconductor behavior. Interestingly, the electronic band gap of the 5-FU/ZnONS and GB/ZnONS is decreased, but they still have semiconductor behaviors. For 6-MP/ZnONS, it is increased and converted to n-type semiconductor for CP/ZnONS structure. According to acquired findings, the complex structures became more stable and lower reactive due to the total energy of these complex structures is increased compared to pristine ZnONS. We detected that the adsorption of the 6-MP, GB, and CP on the ZnONS is moderate chemisorption and physisorption for 5-FU on the ZnONS, successively. All complex structures are required higher excitation energy to transfer an electron due to the chemical hardness of all complex structures is decreased, but the 6-MP/ZnONS structure has the opposite behavior. There is a weak interaction between ZnONS and (5-FU, 6-MP, and GB) and good interaction between the ZnONS and CP due to the electrophilic of these structures has lower and higher value, respectively. Concisely, ZnONS considered the greatest substrate to carry CP anticancer drug compared to other anticancer drugs. © 2022Adsorption energy; Anticancer drug molecules; DFT; DOS; Electronic band gap; Total energyThe authors would like to thank the Iraqi ministry of higher education and scientific research for its care of scientific researchers through the Iraqi virtual science library (IVSL).

Professor/ Thi Qar University, College of Engineering, IraqGeopolymer has been emerged as an innovative and eco-friendly alternative to traditional soil improvement products such as Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) and lime, which have negative environmental consequences. Geopolymer has been employed in various geotechnical applications as alternative lightweight backfill in highway barriers and/or behind retaining walls, providing technical, environmental, and economic benefits. The present study aims to evaluate the mechanical, durability, and Microstructure properties of clayey soil (with different percentages of sand) stabilized using coal-fired fly and a sodium hydroxide/sodium silicate solution alkali activator. Stabilized soils exhibited high strength of 1–8 MPa compared with less than 0.3 MPa for untreated soils. Moreover, adding sand to clay soil reduced the optimum ratio of alkaline activator from 0.8 for clayey soil with 5% sand to 0.6 for clayey soil with 10, 20, 30% sand. The geopolymer treated samples also showed high resistance to the acidic environments and chlorides. Finally, SEM results revealed a clay fabric modification caused by inter-particle contacts and the resulting bonding caused by gel formation and hardening. According to the outcomes of this study, it can be concluded that using a fly ash geopolymer binder for soil stabilization is a viable alternative to cement in geotechnical applications. © 2022 The AuthorsClay soil; Coal-fired fly ash; Geopolymer; Microstructure; Sodium chloride; Sulfuric acidClay; Durability; Geopolymers; Inorganic polymers; Lime; Microstructure; Portland cement; Sand; Silicates; Sodium chloride; Sodium hydroxide; Soil mechanics; Stabilization; Clay soil; Clayey soils; Coal-fired fly ash; Eco-friendly; Geopolymer; Geotechnical application; Microstructure characterization; Ordinary Portland cement; Soils improvement; Strength characterization; Fly ashKarol, R.H., (2003) Chemical Grouting and Soil Stabilization, Revised and Expanded, 12. , Crc Press; Makusa, G.P., (2012), 1, pp. 1-35. , Soil Stabilization Methods and Materials in Engineering Practice, J0urnal; Amer, A.A., El-Hoseny, S., Properties and performance of metakaolin pozzolanic cement pastes (2017) J.

To characterize these phenomena, the researchers used a theoretical approach on the basis of time series and phase space maps, i.e., attractors. In case of coupled QDLED attractors, the phases are generally locked during synchronous regime while the amplitudes are correlated. With the proposed construction scheme, both frequency detuning and coupling strength of two systems can be tuned independently. Further, chaotic attractors with even or else odd count of scrolls can also be easily generated. The study also demonstrated distinct attractors with n scrolls obtained using coupled design. © 2021, The Optical Society of India.n-scrolls; Optical feedback; Optical injection; Phase-coupledChaotic systems; Nanocrystals; Optical feedback; Semiconductor quantum dots; 'current; Coupled designs; Coupled quantum dots; Multi-scroll attractors; N-scroll; Optical injection; Phase-coupled; Quantum-dot light emitting diodes; Theoretical approach; Times series; Organic light emitting diodes (OLED)This work is supported by the Nassiriya Nanotechnology Research Laboratory (NNRL), Science College, University of Thi Qar, Iraq.Kim, T.R., (2008); Yang, X., Ma, Y., Wei Sun, X., Stable, efficient, and all-solution-processed quantum dot light emitting diodes with double-sided metal oxide nanoparticle charge transport layers (2014) ACS Appl.

Later, other heterologous combinations of CoronaVac (DB15806), Janssen (JNJ-78436735), CanSino (AD5-nCOV) and other were also being trialled to explore their effectiveness. Previously, such a strategy was deployed for HIV, Ebola virus, malaria, tuberculosis, influenza and hepatitis B to develop the artificial acquired active immunity. The present review explores the science behind such an approach for candidate COVID-19 vaccines developed using 11 different platforms approved by the World Health Organization. METHODS: The candidate vaccines' pharmaceutical parameters (e.g. platforms, number needed to vaccinate and intervals, adjuvanted status, excipients and preservatives added, efficacy and effectiveness, vaccine adverse events, and boosters), and clinical aspects must be analysed for the mix-and-match approach. Results prime-boost trials showed safety, effectiveness, higher systemic reactogenicity, well tolerability with improved immunogenicity, and flexibility profiles for future vaccinations, especially during acute and global shortages, compared to the homologous counterparts. CONCLUSION: Still, large controlled trials are warranted to address challenging variants of concerns including Omicron and other, and to generalize the effectiveness of the approach in regular as well as emergency use during vaccine scarcity. © The Author(s) 2022.

The present study aimed to characterize the spectrum of alpha-globin gene mutations in patients who were followed up in a genetic diseases center in Thi-Qar province. A total of 30 subjects were collected from thalassemia patients and 15 cases as the control group. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and direct sequencing were performed for functionally regions of the gene (exon 1 and exon 2). The fragment size amplified was 442 bp in the Exon 1 region and 324 bp in the Exon 2 region of α-globin. The molecular analysis of the sequence of PCR products revealed that 13 point mutation within the α-thalassemia gene included deletion and substitution mutation, while the rest of the mutations were in the intron site of the gene. These results indicated that mutations may constitute a risk of developing hemophilia B disease. Molecular mechanisms in the expression of globin genes are used to help manage patients with thalassemia. © 2022 by Razi Vaccine & Serum Research Institutealpha-thalassemia; Iraq; mutation; PCRdeionized water; ethidium bromide; genomic DNA; hemoglobin alpha chain; adult; alpha thalassemia; Article; blood sampling; child; controlled study; DNA extraction; electrophoresis; exon; female; follow up; gene amplification; gene deletion; gene frequency; gene mutation; gene sequence; genetic analysis; genetic association; genetic disorder; genetic variability; genotype; hemophilia B; human; major clinical study; male; molecular dynamics; point mutation; polymerase chain reaction; prevalence; questionnaire; screening; sequence analysis; substitution mutationethidium bromide, 1239-45-8Polus, R., (2017) Prevalence of hemoglobinopathies among marrying couples in Erbil province of Iraq, 6 (2), pp. 90-93; Sabath, DE., Molecular Diagnosis of Thalassemias and Hemoglobinopathies: An ACLPS Critical Review (2017) Am J Clin Pathol, 148 (1), pp. 6-15; Nezhad, FH, Nezhad, KH, Choghakabodi, PM, Keikhaei, B., Prevalence and Genetic Analysis of alpha- and beta-Thalassemia and Sickle Cell Anemia in Southwest Iran (2018) J Epidemiol Glob Health, 8 (3-4), pp. 189-195; Laghmich, A, Alaoui Ismaili, FZ, Barakat, A, Ghailani Nourouti, N, Khattab, M, Bennani Mechita, M., Alpha-Thalassemia in North Morocco: Prevalence and Molecular Spectrum (2019) Biomed Res Int, 2019, p. 2080352; Al-Allawi, NA, Jalal, SD, Ahmed, NH, Faraj, AH, Shalli, A, Hamamy, H., The first five years of a preventive programme for haemoglobinopathies in Northeastern Iraq (2013) J Med Screen, 20 (4), pp. 171-176; Shamoon, RP, Al-Allawi, NA, Cappellini, MD, Di Pierro, E, Brancaleoni, V, Granata, F., Molecular Basis of beta-Thalassemia Intermedia in Erbil Province of Iraqi Kurdistan (2015) Hemoglobin, 39 (3), pp. 178-183; Weatherall, DJ, Williams, TN, Allen, SJ, O'Donnell, A., The population genetics and dynamics of the thalassemias (2010) Hematol Oncol Clin North Am, 24 (6), pp. 1021-1031; Yang, Z, Zhou, W, Cui, Q, Qiu, L, Han, B., Gene spectrum analysis of thalassemia for people residing in northern China (2019) BMC Med Genet, 20 (1), p. 86; Vichinsky, EP., Changing patterns of thalassemia worldwide (2005) Ann N Y Acad Sci, 1054, pp. 18-24; Aziz, A, Ahmed, W, Sarward, G., Molecular analysis of Hb-E and Beta-thalassemia major patients among Bangladeshi population (2017) Austin J Biotechnol Bioeng, 4 (4), p. 1085; Al-Allawi, NA, Jalal, SD, Nerwey, FF, Al-Sayan, GO, Al-Zebari, SS, Alshingaly, AA, Sickle cell disease in the Kurdish population of northern Iraq (2012) Hemoglobin, 36 (4), pp. 333-342; Farashi, S, Harteveld, CL., Molecular basis of alpha-thalassemia (2018) Blood Cells Mol Dis, 70, pp. 43-53; Farashi, S, Vakili, S, Garous, NF, Ashki, M, Forouzesh Pour, F, Zeinali, F, Identification of Mutations Causing Aberrant Termination and Deficient Splice Donor Site on the HBA1 Gene (2016) Hemoglobin, 40 (1), pp. 38-43; Liebhaber, SA, Kan, YW., Differentiation of the mRNA transcripts originating from the alpha 1- and alpha 2-globin loci in normals and alpha-thalassemics (1981) J Clin Invest, 68 (2), pp. 439-446Al-Musawi, O.A.H.; Collage of Education for Women, Iraq; email: ali.habeeb2020@utq.edu.iqRazi Vaccine and Serum Research Institute03653439EnglishArch.

Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the association of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), D-Dimer, vitamin D, and ferritin statuses with the prognosis of COVID-19; moreover, it was attempted to investigate its prevalence according to age, employment status, body mass index (BMI), and place of residency in a population sample of hospitalized patients in Thi-Qar, Iraq. This study evaluated 200 COVID-19 patients and 100 controls. The BMI of all individuals was calculated, and such demographic characteristics as age, gender, place of residency, and occupational status were collected from all participants. Blood samples were taken and used to estimate D-Dimer, LDH, vitamin D, ferritin, oxygen, and pulse rate. The mean age of the patients approached the fifth decade, and 72% of the cases were more than 40 years of age. In addition, 60% of the patients were living in the countryside, and 52% of the participants were employed, compared to only 8% of the cases who were students. The BMI of the patients was obtained at 31.44±10.2 kg/m2; accordingly, 47% and 40% of the cases were obese and overweight, respectively, compared to only 12% of the patients who had normal weight (P<0.05). There were significantly lower vitamin D levels in the patients; however, the concentrations of LDH, serum ferritin, and D-Dimer were significantly higher in the patients, compared to the control group (P<0.05). Not only age and body weight but also employment status and place of residency maybe also the important risk factors for COVID-19 distribution. LDH, D-dimer, vitamin D, and ferritin statuses could be used as good biomarkers for this disease and its severity.

Classification of marshlands in these regions and mapping of their land cover is not an easy task and maps need to be upgraded frequently. Satellites provide enormous amounts of information and data for the continuous monitoring of changes. The aim of this paper is to introduce an approach using multispectral satellite imagery that was adopted to classify and monitor the Al Hammar Marsh (Iraq) over several years and to suggest a relationship between the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), the Normalized Difference Moisture Index (NDMI), and the Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI), using Landsat 8 data with a resolution of 30 m × 30 m, validated with Sentinel-2 datasets at 10 m × 10 m. Six land cover classes were used: (1) open water, (2) dry area, (3) dense vegetation, (4) medium-density vegetation, (5) sparse vegetation, and (6) wet soil. Three indices, NDWI, NDMI, and NDVI, were chosen for the automatic classification of each pixel and the creation of a time series of land cover maps. The proposed method can efficiently classify and monitor marshlands and can be used to study different marshlands by adjusting the thresholds for NDVI, NDMI, and NDWI. Overall, the correlation for all classes (R) between Landsat 8 and Sentinel-2 is about 0.78. Thus, this approach will help to preserve marshes through improved water management. © 2022 by the authors.

A risk prediction task for short-term is big challenge task; however, it is a great importance for recommendation systems in health care field to provide patients with accurate and reliable recommendations. In this work, clustering method and least square support vector machine are used for prediction a short-term disease risk prediction. The clustering similar method is based on euclidean distance which used to identify the similar sliding windows. The proposed model is trained by using the slide windows samples. Finally, the appropriate recommendations are generated for heart diseases patients who need to take a medical test or not for following day using least square support vector machine. A real dataset which collected from heart diseases patient is used for evaluation. The proposed method yields a good results related by the recommendations accuracy generated to chronicle heart patients and reduce the risk of incorrect recommendations. © 2022 Institute of Advanced Engineering and Science.

The analysis was performed on hourly wind data over three years for five locations measured with a 10 m-high anemometer in Peninsular Malaysia. The performance of wind turbines with varying hub heights and rated power was examined. The economic evaluation of wind energy in all sites was based on an analysis of the annual Levelized cost of energy. Results show that the annual mean wind speeds vary from 1.16 m/s in Sitiswan to 2.9 m/s in Mersing, whereas annual power varies from 3.6 to 51.4 W/m2. Moreover, the results show that the cost of unit energy varies between (4.5-0.38) $/kWh. The most viable site for the use of wind turbines was Mersing, while Sitiawan was the least viable site. A case study examined three wind turbine models operating at Mersing. The study showed that increasing the inflation escalation rate for operating and maintenance from 0-5% led to a decrease in the unit energy cost by about 38%. However, increasing the operating and maintenance escalation rate from 0-10% led to an increase in the unit cost of energy by about 7-8%. © 2022.

The ligands and their complexes characterized by spectroscopic methods (FTIR, 1H-NMR, MS). The ligand acts as a bidentate ligand coordinating through the nitrogen atom of the oxadiazole ring and the nitrogen atom of amino group. This view is further supported by the appearance of a band corresponding to the metal-nitrogen and vibration at 454–688 cm–1 and 314-466 cm-1 in the complexes, respectively. The magnetic studies suggest a octahedral and square planar geometry of the complexes. The complex of Fe (III) have shown octahedral geometry, the complex of Ni (II) has shown square planar geometry with prepared ligands.HOMO-LUMO molecular orbitals analysis of these ligands (L1,L2) and some quantum chemical parameters derived from frontier molecular orbitals were studied.

Reinforcement learning (RL) is considered a promising technique to solve this problem without an analytical approach, but it has been unable to overcome the awkwardness of an extremely large action space in the real world; it would be quite hard to converge to a set point. The core of the problem with RL is its state space and action space of multi-agent action for building and HVAC systems that have an extremely large amount of training data sets. This makes it difficult to create weights layers accurately of the black-box model. Despite the efforts of past works carried out on deep RL, there are still drawback issues that have not been dealt with as part of the basic elements of large action space and the large-scale nonlinearity due to high thermal inertia. The hybrid deep clustering of multi-agent reinforcement learning (HDCMARL) has the ability to overcome these challenges since the hybrid deep clustering approach has a higher capacity for learning the representation of large space and massive data. The framework of RL agents is a greedy iterative trained and organized as a hybrid layer clustering structure to be able to deal with a non-convex, non-linear and non-separable objective function. The parameters of the hybrid layer are optimized by using the Quasi-Newton (QN) algorithm for fast response signals of agents. That is to say, the main motivation is that the state and action space of multi-agent actions for building HVAC controls are exploding, and the proposed method can overcome this challenge and achieve 32% better performance in energy savings and 21% better performance in thermal comfort than PID. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd- Deep Clustering; Control HVAC systems; Energy Management; Fuzzy Optimization; Reinforcement Learning Agents; Smart BuildingsAir conditioning; Deep learning; Energy conservation; Energy management; Intelligent agents; Intelligent buildings; Iterative methods; Reinforcement learning; - deep clustering; Action spaces; Clusterings; Control heating, ventilating and air conditioning system; Energy savings; Energy-savings; Fuzzy optimization; Heating ventilating and air-conditioning systems; Multi agent; Reinforcement learning agent; Multi agent systems; air conditioning; algorithm; building; cluster analysis; nonlinearity; performance assessment; reinforcementHomod, R.Z., Almusaed, A., Almssad, A., Jaafar, M.K., Goodarzi, M., Sahari, K.S.M., Effect of different building envelope materials on thermal comfort and air-conditioning energy savings: A case study in Basra city, Iraq (2021) J.

Kx is influenced by several parameters, including river hydraulic geometry, sediment properties, and other morphological characteristics, and thus its calculation is a highly complex engineering problem. In this research, three relatively explored machine learning (ML) models, including Random Forest (RF), Gradient Boosting Decision Tree (GTB), and XGboost-Grid, were proposed for the Kx determination. The modeling scheme on building the prediction matrix was adopted from the well-established literature. Several input combinations were tested for better predictability performance for the Kx. The modeling performance was tested based on the data division for the training and testing (70–30% and 80–20%). Based on the attained modeling results, XGboost-Grid reported the best prediction results over the training and testing phase compared to RF and GTB models. The development of the newly established machine learning model revealed an excellent computed-aided technology for the Kx simulation. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.Data division; Input variability; Longitudinal dispersion coefficient; Machine learningdata set; dispersion; machine learning; pollutant transport; river; river engineering; sediment property; United States; machine learning; river; United States; Machine Learning; Rivers; United StatesAbba, S.I., Hadi, S.J., Sammen, S.S., Evolutionary computational intelligence algorithm coupled with self-tuning predictive model for water quality index determination (2020) J Hydrol, 587; Abba, S.I., Linh, N.T.T., Abdullahi, J., Hybrid machine learning ensemble techniques for modeling dissolved oxygen concentration (2020) IEEE Access, 8, pp. 157218-157237; Ali, M., Prasad, R., Xiang, Y., Variational mode decomposition based random forest model for solar radiation forecasting: new emerging machine learning technology (2021) Energy Rep, 7, pp. 6700-6717; Alizadeh, M.J., Ahmadyar, D., Afghantoloee, A., Improvement on the Existing equations for predicting longitudinal dispersion coefficient (2017) Water Resour Manag, 31, pp. 1777-1794; Alizadeh, M.J., Shabani, A., Kavianpour, M.R., Predicting longitudinal dispersion coefficient using ANN with metaheuristic training algorithms (2017) Int J Environ Sci Technol, 14, pp. 2399-2410; Alizadeh, M.J., Shahheydari, H., Kavianpour, M.R., Prediction of longitudinal dispersion coefficient in natural rivers using a cluster-based Bayesian network (2017) Environ Earth Sci, 76, p. 86; Araba, A.M., Memon, Z.A., Alhawat, M., Estimation at completion in civil engineering projects: review of regression and soft computing models (2021) Knowledge-Based Eng Sci, 2, pp. 1-12; Azamathulla, H.M., Wu, F.-C., Support vector machine approach for longitudinal dispersion coefficients in natural streams (2011) Appl Soft Comput, 11, pp. 2902-2905; Bayatvarkeshi, M., Bhagat, S.K., Mohammadi, K., Modeling soil temperature using air temperature features in diverse climatic conditions with complementary machine learning models (2021) Comput Electron Agric, 185; Bowden, G.J., Maier, H.R., Dandy, G.C., Optimal division of data for neural network models in water resources applications (2002) Water Resour Res, 38, pp. 2-1-2-11; Breiman, L., Random forests (2001) Mach Learn, 45, pp. 5-32; Bykov, A.D., Voronov, V.I., Voronova, L.I., Machine learning methods applying for hydraulic system states classification (2019) 2019 Systems of Signals Generating and Processing in the Field of on Board Communications.

For BGaN and BAlGaN QD structures, matching to AlN, BAlN, AlGaN barriers and also BInGaN/AlN, the wide-bandgap AlN barrier imposes them to emit at 198–202 nm wavelength. For BInGaN QDs matching to the AlGaN, BAlN, the situation is different. They can emit at the range 252−291nm depending on the barrier and the efficiency of boron content in the barrier in redshifting the wavelength is deduced. The TE and TM gain and spontaneous emission spectra are high and increase under increasing boron in the active region or reducing boron content in the barrier region, exceeding its quantum-well counterpart and of central importance in light-emitting diode applications. Ultra-high gain is obtained from BInGaN/BAlN structure. Gain values are arranged according to the bandgap difference (ΔEg). The range of ΔEg is extended, in the studied structures, to ΔEg=1866−2856 meV, which is of practical importance in UV device applications.

It refers to global warming deterioration in human environmental health and local-global sustainability. This review provides information on the generation and consumption of energy with their air pollution mixture of many pollutants; gases, liquids and particles. These pollutants have become one of the leading environmental hazards to human and planet health. The components of pollutants that result from burning fossil fuels (oil and gas) and coal have been studied, such as sulfur dioxide, carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides and particles. Both sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides interact with water to produce acid rain. Both gas and oil-fired thermal power plants emission today and in the future might be transformed to work on renewable energy sources. The results stated that gas-fired power plants are more generally faster efficient, less pollution than oil and coal power plants. A complete assessment of exhaust gas treatment was conducted. Carbon dioxide capture, desulfurization, denitrification, and particle collection were all successful as treatment control mechanisms. So, previous studies presented some methods for reducing nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides through water injection and exhaust gas recycling. The addition of nano-additives in diesel emulsion fuel (W/D) has recently been shown to increase the characteristics and performance of the fuel while reducing the quantity of emitted hydrogen chloride (HC) and carbon monoxide (CO). It was determined that the best nano-additives for W/D were Aluminum Oxide (Al2O3), copper(ii) oxide, magnesium oxide (MgO), manganese oxide (MnO), and zinc oxide (ZnO), among others (E10). © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Air pollution; Emission of pollutant; plant health; Thermal power plantAsif, M., Muneer, T., Energy supply, its demand and security issues for developed and emerging economies (2007) Renewable and sustainable energy reviews, 11 (7), pp. 1388-1413; Hannun, R.

After about 18 years, very little has been achieved in the restoration process. The inundated areas fluctuate on an annual basis. The water-covered areas increase during wet years and shrink during dry years. One component of the re-marshification is missing; that is a plan based on actual water flow data and supplies. As a result, the vast area of the original marshes is suffering from saline water and ecological deterioration. In this paper, sustained water supplies are specified to restore an area of about 4440 km2, about 55.5% of the marshes area of 1973, and reclaim the salinity problem of Shatt al-Arab. The basic components of the water supplies scheme come from two sources: the first is the environmental flow from the Tigris, the Euphrates, the Karkheh, and the Karun rivers, and the second is the seasonal flows generated along the eastern borderline of Iraq (i.e., The Iraq-Iran Borderline).

Glycemic control is vital in delaying or preventing complications. Although many people do not take optimal doses, metformin is a cornerstone in managing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in all guidelines. This study determined the barriers interfering with optimal metformin dosage. A cross-sectional study was conducted in Thi-Qar Specialized, Diabetes, Endocrine and Metabolism Center (TDEMC) at Thi-Qar, southern Iraq, from January 2019 to January 2020. 475 patients (274 females and 201 males) were included, and examination and lab investigations were performed. Only 22 (4.6%) patients took the optimal dose with no differences between gender. Of those who took metformin, 255 (74%) took it as a regular pill, 79 (23%) as a combined form with sulfonylureas (SUs), while only 10 (0.3%) took combined pills with Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP4i). 188 patients (65%) took metformin with meals, 84 (29%) before meals, and 19 (6%) after meals. Ignorance caused poor adherence to optimal dose in 165 patients (38.6%), neglect in 75 (17.6%), the cost in 5 (1.2%), 11 patients (2.6%) thought they did not need metformin, 37(8.7%) and 12 (2.8%) blame side effects and shortage of supply from public health care clinics (PHCC) as a cause, respectively. The rest of the patients had more than one cause. The most common side effects were abdominal pain and bloating, 5.9% and 3.8%, respectively. Other side effects were diarrhea in 0.2%, and 7.8% of patients developed more than one side effect. Ignorance and neglect were major obstacles, so educating doctors and patients and supplying the patient with optimal doses through PHCC may overcome the problem. ©2022 JOURNAL of MEDICINE and LIFE.Adherence; Barriers; Diabetes mellitus; Metforminantidiabetic agent; metformin; cross-sectional study; epidemiology; female; human; Iraq; male; non insulin dependent diabetes mellitus; Cross-Sectional Studies; Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2; Female; Humans; Hypoglycemic Agents; Iraq; Male; Metforminmetformin, 1115-70-4, 657-24-9; Hypoglycemic Agents; MetforminNLM (Medline)1844311735646179EnglishJ Med LifeArticleFinalScopus2-s2.0-85131223914

The biological characteristics indices showed an obvious variation in the different stations and seasons. The productivity values in the general estuary, south of Nasiriyah City ranged between 38.99-130.05 mg carbon m-3 hour-1. These values showed two peaks during the fall and spring. The chlorophyll-a and phytovitin-a concentrations ranged between 3-6.44 µg L-1 and 0.66-3.22 µg L-1, respectively. The highest concentrations of both pigments were found in St. 1. In addition, the highest concentration of chlorophyll-a (6.44 mg L-1) during autumn at St. 1, while the highest concentration of phaeophytin-a (3.22 mg L-1) during winter at St. 2. The lowest concentration of chlorophyll-a (3 mg L-1) was at St. 1, in winter, while the lowest of phaeophytin-a (0.66 mg L-1) during spring at St. 3. In general, the autumn and spring was marked by the highest concentration of chlorophyll a, while the winter and summer by the highest phaeophytin. © The Author(s).Biomass; Chlorophyll –a; General estuary; Phaeophytin-a; Primary productivityAl Essa, SA, Abdullah, AA, Adel, QJ, Primary productivity of phytoplankton within the northern part of the Shatt Al-Arab River-southern Iraq (2007) Basra Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 20, p. 287; Al Hamdawi, AOS, (2006) Primary productivity and environmental factors affecting it in the Dagara River /Al-Diwaniyah, Iraq, p. 147. , MSc.

Artemisia has been studied since time immemorial in several studies all showing its ability in preventing and treating different diseases. However, so far there have been no studies focusing on the possible role of Artemisia in the protection of prostate histoarchitecture toxicity. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the protective role of Artemisia in the amelioration of histological and hormonal depression affected by sodium fluoride (NaF). A total of 28 male adult Wistar rats were equally divided into four groups (n=7). Animals in the control group received normal saline. The second group received NaF by oral gavage at a dose of 12 mg/kg body weight (B.W.) three times a week. The third group received concurrent treatment with NaF at a dose of 12 mg/kg B.W. three times a week, as well as extraction of Artemisia absinthium at a dose of 100 mg/kg B.W. The fourth group was treated only with extraction of Artemisia absinthium at a dose of 100 mg/k B.W. After 60 days, B.W. and the absolute weight of the prostate were measured. Blood samples and tissues were collected for measuring testosterone, follicle-stimulating hormone, as well as luteinizing hormone concentration, conducting paraffin-embedded sections with hematoxylin, and eosin routine staining. The findings revealed that Artemisia supplement significantly increased body and absolute weight of prostate gland in the group treated by NaF. In addition, mitigating the histological changes throughout the restoration of all prostate components appeared nearly as normal structural tissue. Moreover, the height of glandular epithelium decreased, follicular lumen enlarged, dark secretion materials with homogeneity disappeared of invagination intraluminal, and normal stroma appeared in regular shape. All in all, the results of this study pointed out that Artemisia had a protective effect against NaF-influenced prostate toxicity via stabilizing male hormones, recomposing histoarchitecture, and returning abnormal biomorphic parameters to a nearly normal state.

Due to the Covid pandemic-2019, isolated wards at health care units and even due to the home treated patients; vast quantities of BMW are generated. Covid-19 converts even ordinary waste such as gloves, testing kits, and personal protective equipment into high-risk BMW. The appropriate disposal of such waste involves safety, affordability, and efficacy; hence can be considered a complex issue. A solution proposed in this article is an OSBMWTU (on-site biomedical waste treatment unit) by using microwave radiation. The possibility of enhancing the thermal effect of microwave radiation by using chemical additives was tested. The proposed machine reduces waste volume, inactivates microorganisms, and disposes BMW on-site. Findings suggest that adding butter spray to microwave radiation enhances thermal effectiveness by 43%, increasing treatment temperature while minimizing time, power, and running costs. The proposed machine will work automatically after filling the BMW, thus, minimizing the human involvement. It prevents bio-hazardous waste accumulation and decreases its volume by up to 80%. The designed machine is characterized by safety, low cost, and small dimensions. A machine that can handle 72 kg BMW/day can be set up on-site in an area of 1.5 m2. The suggestion of the proposed machine as a BMW management and treatment system will reduce environmental pollution due to BMW during COVID-19 and even after the pandemic. © The Author 2022.

Furthermore, varying flow analysis is applied to examine the flow resistance, heat transfer, and other design parameters. Our research indicates that heat transfer enhancement can be attributed to two factors. First In corrugated configurations, convective heat transfer is transformed into jet impingement heat transfer. Second, the boundary layer on the leeside of the corrugation was dramatically redeveloped by pulsation. Heat transfer performance is significantly improved and pressure drop is increased due to the spiral flow. Additionally, different corrugated geometrical configurations are used to investigate the flow behaviour based on Nusselt numbers (Nu) and friction coefficients (f) corresponding to the analyse values, and the design parameters such as corrugated ring angle (CRA), corrugated ring diameter (CRD), and a corrugated ring number (NCR). The result indicates that the Nu tend to increase as increases of the Re. The Nu value increases at higher corrugated geometrical configurations increase. Using different corrugated geometric configurations can result in performance superior to smooth pipes because the performance evaluation factor (PEF) value is higher than unity. Both PEF and Re increments, as well as the PEF value, demonstrate a reducing trend. © 2022 The Authors.3D corrugated pipe; Corrugation interruptions configurations; Enhancement of heat performance; Thermohydrodynamic characteristicsBoundary layers; Friction; Geometry; Heat convection; Heat flux; Heat resistance; Pressure drop; Reynolds number; 3d corrugated pipe; Corrugated pipes; Corrugation interruption configuration; Enhancement of heat performance; Evaluation factor; Heat performance; Heat transfer performance; Performances evaluation; Thermohydrodynamic characteristic; Thermohydrodynamics; DropsGarcía, A., Solano, J.P., Vicente, P.G., Viedma, A., The influence of artificial roughness shape on heat transfer enhancement: Corrugated tubes, dimpled tubes and wire coils (2012) Appl.

The presence of the silver (Ag) metal in the structure makes the valence band Fermi energy deepen. Then, for the plasmonic QD nanolaser (compared to conventional QD laser), the refractive index value doubles while the group velocity is lower by half. The quality factor is increased where high energy can be stored in the cavity. The threshold gain value lowers the material gain by more than ten orders. A comparison with experimental results predicts the possibility of high power applications for this structure. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.Fermi energy; Group index; Group velocity; Quality factor; Quantum dots (QDs); Threshold gainFermi level; III-V semiconductors; Indium arsenide; Light velocity; Plasmonics; Refractive index; Semiconductor quantum dots; Group index; Group velocities; InAs quantum dots; Low thresholds; Material gain; Nano lasers; Plasmonics; Quality factors; Quantum dot; Threshold gain; NanocrystalsAl-Husseini, H., Al-Khursan, A.H., Al-Dabagh, S.Y., III-N QD lasers (2009) Open Nanosci.

Parameter like pH, contact time, methylene blue concentration, and adsorbent dose concentration was studied. Methylene blue removal increased when the dosage of biosorbent increases. Isotherm adsorption was also described by the Langmuir and Freundleich models, It was found that Langmuir isotherm (R2 = 0.9956) is better than the Freundlich model (R2 = 0.9937) which implies that the adsorption of MB on AgNPs-IPN's was monolayer. Thus the maximum adsorption capacities calculated from the Langmuir model was found to be 33.5 mg.g−1 and was consistent with the experimental data. The synthesized AgNPs-IPN's showed an excellent activity towards the removal of methylene blue from synthetic wastewater. ©2022 National Information and Documentation Center (NIDOC)AgNPs-IPN's; Methylene blue; Nanoparticles; Polymers; Synthetic wastewaterI would like to express my heartfelt thanks to Dr. Asaad Sayer and Dr. Saad Sh.

This paper is an experimental study on steel fiber-reinforced concrete (SFRC) beam specimens strengthened by CFRP against shear than using externally bound reinforcement (EBR) and externally bound reinforcement on grooves (EBROG). Sixteen concrete beams with dimensions of 110 mm width, 150 mm depth, and 1300 mm length were tested to assess the effect of steel fibers and to evaluate the effects of grooving techniques in terms of improving the shear capacities of SFRC beams strengthened by CFRP. The beams were designed to fail via a shear failure mode. Five volume fractions of steel fibers were used: 0.0%, 0.8%, 1.5%, 1.5%* and 2%. The beams are tested under four-point loading with two values of shear span-to-depth (a/d) ratios, which were 2.2 and 2.85. The results show that the shear strength and the ductility increase with increasing fiber volume fraction, and that the load-carrying capacity of SFRC beams increased by 33% to 68% compared to the load-carrying capacity of the control beam (without steel fibers). Also, the test results show that strengthening beams using CFRP sheets enhanced the strength and stiffness of the tested beam specimens. The increase in the load-carrying capacity of SFRC beam strengthened by CFRP sheet using the EBR method was 79%, while the increase in the load-carrying capacity of SFRC beams strengthened by CFRP sheet using the EBROG method ranged from 89% to 110% compared to the control beam. Furthermore, the results show that the shape of the grooves influenced the capacity and the failure mode of the tested beams. Finally, it may be noted that the grooving method has a significant effect on the load-carrying capacity and failure mode in comparison with the EBR method. © 2022 Institution of Structural EngineersBeam; CFRP; EBROG; Shear Strength; Steel fiberTahenni, T., Chemrouk, M., Lecompte, T., Effect of steel fibers on the shear behavior of high strength concrete beams (2016) Constr Build Mater, 105, pp. 14-28; James, I.D., (1996), ACI Committee 544, “State-of the-art report on fiber reinforced concrete”, ACI Committee 544 report 544.1 R-96.

It is a long process, is error prone, and requires a highly trained expert. In this research, a new method is presented for seizure classification for EEG signals using a dual-tree complex wavelet transform (DT-CWT) and fast Fourier transform (FFT) coupled with a least square support vector machine (LS-SVM) classifier. In this method, each EEG signal is divided into four segments. Each segment is further split into smaller sub-segments. The DT-CWT is applied to decompose each sub-segment into detailed and approximation coefficients (real and imaginary parts). The obtained coefficients by the DT-CWT at each decomposition level are passed through an FFT to identify the relevant frequency bands. Finally, a set of effective features are extracted from the sub-segments, and are then forwarded to the LS-SVM classifier to classify epileptic EEGs. In this paper, two epileptic EEG databases from Bonn and Bern Universities are used to evaluate the extracted features using the proposed method. The experimental results demonstrate that the method obtained an average accuracy of 97.7% and 96.8% for the Bonn and Bern databases, respectively. The results prove that the proposed DT-CWT and FFT based features extraction is an effective way to extract discriminative information from brain signals. The obtained results are also compared to those by k-means and Naïve Bayes classifiers as well as with the results from the previous methods reported for classifying epileptic seizures and identifying the focal and non-focal EEG signals. The obtained results show that the proposed method outperforms the others and it is effective in detecting epileptic seziures in EEG signals. The technique can be adopted to aid neurologists to better diagnose neurological disorders and for an early seizure warning system. © 2022Dual-tree complex wavelet transform; Epileptic seizures; Fast Fourier transformation; Focal, non-Focal EEG signalsaccuracy; Article; Bayesian learning; classification algorithm; controlled study; cross validation; decomposition; diagnostic test accuracy study; dual tree complex wavelet transform; electric activity; electroencephalogram; epilepsy; feature extraction; Fourier transform; human; k means clustering; kappa statistics; least squares support vector machine; machine learning; receiver operating characteristic; seizure; sensitivity and specificity; adult; algorithm; brain cortex; electroencephalography; epilepsy; Fourier analysis; pathophysiology; procedures; seizure; signal processing; wavelet analysis; Adult; Algorithms; Cerebral Cortex; Electroencephalography; Epilepsy; Fourier Analysis; Humans; Seizures; Signal Processing, Computer-Assisted; Wavelet AnalysisUniversity of Southern Queensland, USQAuthors would like to thank Dr Barbara Harmes in the Language Centre, Open Access College, at the University of Southern Queensland, Australia for providing help in proof-reading this paper.Acharya, U.R., Sree, S.V., Swapna, G., Martis, R.J., Suri, J.S., Automated EEG analysis of epilepsy: a review (2013) Knowl.-Based Syst., 45, pp. 147-165; Acharya, U.R., Yanti, R., Zheng, J.W., Krishnan, M.M.R., Martis, R.J., Lim, C.M., Automated diagnosis of epilepsy using CWT, HOS and texture parameters (2013) Int.

Moreover, they are utilized to evaluate different concentrations of aqueous and alcoholic extracts of Averrhoa bilimbi leaves and antibiotics against bacteria isolated from the oral cavity. This study was conducted simultaneously at the Departments of Botany and Biology, Shatrah Hospital, Thi-Qar, Iraq, during March and August 2021. A. bilimbi leaf extracts were utilized in the plant component examination and the assessment of the antibacterial activity. The bacterial strain of Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae was isolated from the oral cavity. To test the antibacterial impact of the extracts on bacteria, the agar well diffusion method was used. The phytochemical screening indicated the presence of Alkaloids, Flavonoids, Sapiens, Steroids, Tannins, Glycosides, and Carbohydrates, followed by the absence of Tannins in aqueous extract. Due to the A. bilimbi leaf aqueous and methanol extract against E. coli, areas of inhibition were found (0.20 cm and 0.19 cm) at the concentration of 100 mg/ml, respectively. However, there were no regions of inhibition of the K. pneumoniae trend for both extracts. The sensitivity of bacterial isolates of E. coli and K. pneumonia to antibiotics was also tested through Gentamicin, Amoxycillin, Azithromycin, Ciprofloxacin, Penicillin, and Polymyxin B, and the regions of inhibition appeared against E. coli (0.5cm, 0 cm, 0.34 cm, 0.45 cm, 0 cm, and 0.12 cm, respectively). Furthermore, the regions of inhibition appeared against K. pneumoniae (3 cm, 0.3 cm, 0.4 cm, 0.55 cm, 0 cm, 0.66 cm, respectively). The antibiotics showed a higher inhibition zone, compared to the aqueous and alcoholic extracts; however, further studies are required to be conducted to validate its reliability. © 2022 Razi Vaccine and Serum Research Institute.

Based on (TiO2) as photoanode, the crystal structure of the basic materials and the prepared nanocompositeWS2QD/TiO2-NC have been studied using X-ray diffraction XRD, as well as the SEM and TEM examination. The physical and chemical properties have proved that the nanocomposite (WS2QD/TiO2-NC) has been produced within a nanoscale. The regular and pure WS2QD particles are successfully installed on the nanocomposite TiO2-NC and exhibit a high surface area and pore size (10μm) when compared to pure WS2QD. The nanocomposite WS2QD/TiO2-NC compound exhibits a PCE conversion efficiency (9.45%), which is relatively high if compared to Pure TiO2 (8.147%). The reason for improving the PCE of (WS2QD/TiO2-NC) is that the presence of MWCNTs and Graphen in the compound reduces the time to reconnect the electron-hole pair and efficiently stabilizes the WS2QD assembly to expose the entire active edges. On the other hand, giving an increase in electrical conductivity facilitates electron transfer inside the compound. Also, the presence of TiO2 improves the ability of the compound to absorb the photon and thus increases the photoelectric stimulation © This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International LicenseDssc; Graphene; Hydrothermal; Mwcnts; Ws2qd/tio2-nc nanocompositeShakeel Ahmad, M, Pandey, AK, Abd Rahim, N., Advancements in the development of TO photoanodes and its fabrication methods for dye sensitized solar cell (DSSC) applications.

Therefore, AISI4140 steel samples were heat-treated to harden by heating up to 1113 K for 120 min, followed by quenching in agitated mineral oil. Then samples were tempered at 863 K for 60 min. Nitriding was carried out for 1400 up to 21000 min. Samples were characterized by optical microscope, scanning electron microscope, x-ray diffractometer, and HSC thermodynamical software. Results showed that the rate of diffusion was higher in the early stages of nitriding. Due to nitrogen of diffusion, some nitrides are formed in grain boundaries and act as diffusion barriers. In this case, the diffusion mechanism from grain boundary diffusion changes to the volume diffusion or a combination of both mechanisms. Meanwhile, diffusion of nitrogen, in addition to the ferrite layers and grain boundaries, is also performed into the cementite layers. Although these layers are not the preferred areas of diffusion, volume diffusion of nitrogen through cementite layers leads to decomposition of them and turning them into iron nitrides and carbo-nitrides. Results show that almost 42 percent of cementite layers decomposed by nitrogen diffusion. © 2022 IOP Publishing Ltd.4140 Steel; cementite decomposition; diffusion coefficients; gas nitriding; Gibbs free energyAluminum nitride; Diffusion; Free energy; Gibbs free energy; Grain boundaries; Iron compounds; Low carbon steel; Nitrides; Nitriding; Scanning electron microscopy; 4140 steel; Cementite decomposition; Gasnitriding; Grain-boundaries; Heating up; Microscope scanning; Optical microscopes; Steel samples; Thermodynamical; Volume diffusion; CarbidesMittemeijer, E J., Fundamentals of Nitriding and Nitrocarburizing ASM Handbook Steel Heat TreatingFundamentals and Processes Dossett J I Totten G E (2013) USA ASM International, 4A, p. 619639. , vol; Zhao, C, Li, C X., Dong, H, Bell, T, Study on the active screen plasma nitriding and its nitriding mechanism (2006) Surf.

Magyarország, Győr, 9024, Hungary; Kovács, T., Donát Bánki Faculty of Mechanical and Safety Engineering, Óbuda University, Budapest, 1081, HungaryTi6Al4V (Ti64) alloys manufactured by selective laser melting (SLM) are well known for their susceptibility to failure at a low ductility of less than 10% due to the formation of an (α′) martensitic structure. Annealing and solution treatments as post-heat treatments of α′ are considered a good way to improve the mechanical performance of SLM-manufactured Ti64 parts. In this research, the effect of heat treatment parameters such as temperature (850◦C and 1020◦C) and cooling rate (furnace and water cooling) on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the SLM Ti64 structure was investigated. It was shown that the tensile strength/ductility of the Ti64 alloy produced by SLM was determined by the post-heat treatment. The experimental results revealed that heat treatment at 850◦C followed by furnace cooling resulted in the best possible combination of ductility (13%) and tensile strength (σy = 932, σu = 986 MPa) with a microstructure consisting mainly of 78.71% α and 21.29% β. Heat treatment at 850◦C followed by water cooling was characterized by a reduction in hardness and the formation of predominantly α plus α′′ and a small amount of β. HT850WC exhibited yield and tensile strengths of about 870 and 930 MPa, respectively, and an elongation at fracture of 10.4%. Heat treatment at 1020◦C and subsequent cooling in the furnace was characterized by the formation of an α + β lamellar microstructure. In contrast, heat treatment at 1020◦C and subsequent water cooling formed semi-equiaxial β grains of about 170 µm in diameter with longer elongated α grains and basket-weave α′. Post-treatment at 1020◦C followed by furnace cooling showed high ductility with an elongation of 14.5% but low tensile strength (σy = 748, σu = 833 MPa). In contrast, post-treatment at 1020◦C followed by water cooling showed poor ductility with elongation of 8.6% but high tensile strength (σy = 878, σu = 990 MPa). The effect of aging at 550◦C for 3 h and cooling in a furnace on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the specimens cooled with water was also studied. It was found that aging influenced the microstructure of the Ti6Al4V parts, including β, α, and α′′ precipitation and fragmentation or globularization of elongated α grains. The aging process at 550◦C leads to an increase in tensile strength and a decrease in ductility. © 2022 by the authors.

The OFDM system has many advantages such as high spectral efficiency, robustness to channel fading, and immunity to impulse interference. However, it has a main drawback, which is the Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR). Selecting Mapping (SLM) and Partial Transmit Sequences (PTS) are the two essential techniques for reducing the PAPR; however, they need to send side information to indicate how the transmitter generates signals. In this paper, Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO)-based dummy sub-carriers are inserted with the data to reduce PAPR without transmitting side information. The incorporation of PSO-based Dummy Sub-carriers Insertion (DSI) method on this system is performed by measuring the PAPR at the IFFT output (Inverse Fast Fourier Transform) after adding 6 adaptive sub-carrier sequences to the input data of IFFT. The PSO-based dummy algorithm decides to send the data once the PAPR of this data sequence and dummy sub-carrier is under a specific threshold. Using MATLAB as a mathematical simulation tool, simulation results are presented for a standard OFDM network model. The network model has been simulated in an Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) channel environment to investigate PAPR and Bit-Error Rate (BER) performance. The simulation results show that the dummy sequence based on PSO reduces PAPR down to 4 dB compared to a conventional OFDM system and down to 3 dB compared with the clipping technique for the same BER performance. © 2021 The Korean Institute of Communications and Information Sciences (KICS)AWGN; Clipping technique; OFDM; PAPR; Particle Swarm; PTS; SLMZhou, S., Wang, Z., Ofdm Basics (2014), Wiley Telecom; Emami, H., Sharifi, A.A., A novel bio-inspired optimization algorithm for solving peak-to-average power ratio problem in DC-biased optical systems (2020) Opt.

It took a realistic wave function that is not covered with these considerations together elsewhere. The results show that by applying very high tunneling, the in- and out-scattering processes of the double QD are slowed by state filling, while moderate tunneling was accelerated. The incoherent pumping makes the processes faster, except at high WL occupation. Bandgap engineering, which is of central importance for material researchers, experiences two possibilities: the wide-bandgap QDs have fast QD processes, while deep QDs are associated with slow processes. The high momenta correspond with fast QD processes. © 2022, The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society.Coulomb scattering rate; double quantum dot; tunnelingEnergy gap; Nanocrystals; Wave functions; Coulomb effects; Coulomb scattering; Coulomb scattering rate; Double quantum dots; Quantum dot systems; Scattering process; Scattering rates; Tunneling; Wetting layer; Work study; Semiconductor quantum dotsLingnau, B., (2015) Nonlinear and nonequilibrium dynamics of quantum-dot optoelectronic devices, , Springer, NY; Al-Ameri, H.H., Abdullah, M., Al-Khursan, A.H., Quantum entropy in ladder-plus-Y double quantum dot system using spontaneously generated coherence (2021) International J.

To our knowledge, the adopted approach is the first technique to be proposed and applied in the water demand prediction. Compared to traditional methods, the developed methodology is superior in terms of predictive accuracy and runtime. Water consumption coupled with weather variables of the Melbourne City, from 2006 to 2015, were obtained from the South East Water retail company. The results showed that using data pre-processing techniques can significantly improve the quality of data and to select the best model input scenario. Additionally, it was noticed that the particle swarm optimisation algorithm accurately predicts the constants of the suggested model. Furthermore, the results confirmed that the proposed methodology accurately estimated the monthly data of municipal water demand based on a range of statistical criteria. © 2020 The AuthorsAustralia; Discrete wavelet transform; Particle swarm optimization; Principal component analysis; Water demandData handling; Discrete wavelet transforms; Particle swarm optimization (PSO); Combined techniques; Data preprocessing; Novel methodology; Particle swarm optimisation; Particle swarm optimisation algorithms; Predictive accuracy; Statistical criterion; Water consumption; ForecastingThe authors thank Peter Roberts, Demand Forecasting Manager, Yarra Valley Water for providing data.Adamowski, J., Fung Chan, H., Prasher, S.O., Ozga-Zielinski, B., Sliusarieva, A., Comparison of multiple linear and nonlinear regression, autoregressive integrated moving average, artificial neural network, and wavelet artificial neural network methods for urban water demand forecasting in Montreal, Canada (2012) Water Resour.

Methods: A total of 120 healthy adult mice (weighing about 25±5 g) were included in this study. Sixty mice out of the total were used to determine LD50, 30 mice to determine the anti-inflammatory test, and the remaining (30 mice) were used for an analgesic test. The hot plate was used to determine the analgesic effect, while the anti-inflammatory effect was determined by the ability of the compound to minimize the inflammation and edema caused by the injection of car-rageenan. Results: Lawsone was isolated from Lawsonia inermis. A Stuart SMP10 digital melting point apparatus was used for measuring all melting points. Infrared spectrometer FT-IR 400D was used for measuring/recording IR spectra (KBr) which the frequency of absorption was represented as cm−1. For 1H-NMR spectrum recording, a Bruk-spectrophotometer of 400 MHz was used with internal TMS standard, with deuterated Ś 2.51 ppm for acetone-d6, re-mained solvent signals as well as 13C.NMR was used. TLC was utilized as adsorbent, UV light, or iodine-completed visualization to verify compounds' purities. The LD50 of the oral lawsone was 96 mg/kg, and the highest dosage that did not kill any of the experimental animals was 80 mg/kg, which was used to investigate lawsone's analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects. Lawsone and aspirin possessed an analgesic effect compared to the control group (p<0.0001 and p<0.001, respective-ly); however, lawsone induced a potent analgesic effect compared to aspirin (p<0.1). In contrast, Lawsone and aspirin exerted an anti-inflammatory effect (p<0.05) compared to the control group and were equipotent in carrageenan-induced hind paw edema. Conclusion: It is concluded that lawsone possesses analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects, which endorse the practi-cal medical importance of Lawsonia inermis. The latter is widely used traditionally for these purposes own to its cost-effectiveness and safety; however, further studies are required to determine the systemic safety of lawsone. © The Author(s) 2022.analgesic; anti-inflammatory; henna; herb; Lawsone; Lawsonia inermis; medicinal plants; pharmacognosy; pharmacology; phytotherapyThe authors like to acknowledge the College of Science, the University of Thi-Qar for their cooperation in providing the experimental animals and the Biology Department-Plant Taxonomy, College of Education, Thi-Qar University, for their assistance in classifying the henna leaves.

There is a strong demand to recognize the seizures in more automatic manner. Developing an expert seizure detection system with an acceptable performance level can partly fill this research gap. This paper proposes a new framework for the automated detection of neonatal seizures based on the Morse Wavelet approach that is coupled with a local binary pattern algorithm, and a graph-based community detection algorithm. An ensemble classifier method is designed to detect neonatal seizures prevalent in EEG signals. Our findings show that only 59 of the texture features can exhibit the abnormal increase in an EEG amplitude and the spikes notable during a seizure. The present results demonstrate that the proposed seizure detection model is more accurate for the detection of seizures compared with some of the traditional approaches. © 2022 Elsevier LtdElectroencephalogram (EEG); Local binary pattern; Morse wavelet; Neonatal seizure detectionElectrophysiology; Graphic methods; Textures; Wavelet analysis; Wavelet transforms; Automatic Detection; Electroencephalogram; Electroencephalogram signals; Local binary patterns; Morse wavelet; Multi channel; Neonatal seizure; Neonatal seizure detection; Seizure-detection; Texture analysis; ElectroencephalographyTemko, A., Lightbody, G., Thomas, E.M., Boylan, G.B., Marnane, W., Instantaneous measure of EEG channel importance for improved patient-adaptive neonatal seizure detection (2012) IEEE Trans.

Alcoholics are more vulnerable to health issues, such as immune disorders, high blood pressure, brain anomalies, and heart problems. These health issues are also a significant cost to national health systems. To help health professionals to diagnose the disease with a high rate of accuracy, there is an urgent need to create accurate and automated diagnosis systems capable of classifying human bio-signals. In this study, an automatic system, denoted as (CT-BS- Cov-Eig based FOA-F-SVM), has been proposed to detect the prevalence and health effects of alcoholism from multichannel electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. The EEG signals are segmented into small intervals, with each segment passed to a clustering technique-based bootstrap (CT-BS) for the selection of modeling samples. A covariance matrix method with its eigenvalues (Cov-Eig) is integrated with the CT-BS system and applied for useful feature extraction related to alcoholism. To select the most relevant features, a nonparametric approach is adopted, and to classify the extracted features, a radius-margin-based support vector machine (F-SVM) with a fruit fly optimization algorithm (FOA), (i.e., FOA-F-SVM) is utilized. To assess the performance of the proposed CT-BS model, different types of evaluation methods are employed, and the proposed model is compared with the state-of-the-art models to benchmark the overall effectiveness of the newly designed system for EEG signals. The results in this study show that the proposed CT-BS model is more effective than the other commonly used methods and yields a high accuracy rate of 99%. In comparison with the state-of-the-art algorithms tested on identical databases describing the capability of the newly proposed FOA-F-SVM method, the study ascertains the proposed model as a promising medical diagnostic tool with potential implementation in automated alcoholism detection systems used by clinicians and other health practitioners. The proposed model, adopted as an expert system where EEG data could be classified through advanced pattern recognition techniques, can assist neurologists and other health professionals in the accurate and reliable diagnosis and treatment decisions related to alcoholism.

A total of 210 raw milk samples were used from 70 female buffaloes at different ages, breastfeeding young of different sexes. The result showed a significant effect of the birth sequence on daily milk production, where the group of mothers with the fourth birth sequence and more was significantly had higher production. The mothers with the second birth sequence significantly outperformed the mothers with the first birth sequence. The highest daily milk production was in the fourth birth sequence group and more and the lowest in the first birth sequence group (11.14±0.165 vs. 3.74±0.198kg). The effect of the birth sequence was significant (P<0.05) on the percentage of total solids, fat percentage, and milk density. The results showed a significant effect of the newborn gender on daily milk production, total solids, and the density of milk, where the mothers of male births had the higher daily milk production (8.74±0.328 vs. 6.40±0.328kg), while the mothers of female births had a significantly higher percentage of total solids and milk density. © 2022 Iranian Society of Ichthyology.Calf gender; Composition; Iraqi buffalo; Milk yieldAL-Fartosi, K.G., AL-Moussawi, N.H.H., Effect of the sex of birth in the physical and chemical characteristics of buffalo's milk in the marshes of southern Iraq (2017) Journal of College of Education for Pure Sciences, 7 (1), p. 11; Al-Jamas, R.K.A., The importance of the buffalo (2010) The first annual conference for the development of buffaloes, p. 91. , Baghdad; AL-Kauzai, A.L.D., AL-Muhja, R.K., AL-Ghalibi, O.I.M., AL-Atlawi, R.W.M., Kadhim, R.N., AL-Kafaji, B.M.K., The effect of sex of calve and parity on milk production and its components in Iraqi buffaloes (2020) IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 553, p. 01031; Al-Qudsi, N.H., Elijah, G.V., (2010) Dairy cattle production, p. 87. , Department of Animal Resources, College of Agriculture, University of Baghdad; Al-Salami, M., Muhammad, O., (2005) Effect of some factors on several aspects of production and reproduction of Friesian cows in central Iraq, p. 101. , Master Thesis.

Characterization of the studied compounds was carried out using infrared spectrum (IR), proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum (1H NMR), and elemental analysis (C.H.N). The molecular structure of the organotellurium compounds was investigated using the density functional theory with hybrid functional (B3LYP) and the basis set 3-21G. Geometrical structure, HOMO surfaces, LUMO surfaces, and energy gap have been produced throughout the geometry optimization. The molecular geometry and contours for the organotellurium compounds were investigated throughout the geometrical optimization. The donor and acceptor properties have been studied by comparing the highest occupied molecular orbital energies (HOMO) of organotellurium compounds. The electronegativity, electrophilicity, Ionization potential, electron affinity, Chemical Hardness, and Chemical softness for the organotellurium compounds was calculated for the molecules under the study. © 2022 National Information and Documentation Center (NIDOC).1H NMR and FT - IR; Aniline; Camphor; DFT; HOMO; LUMO; Mercury chloride; OrganotelluriumWöhler, F., Die organische Chemie in ihrer Anwendung auf Agricultur und Physiologie (1840) Ann.

Five different kinetic models were used (first-order kinetic, cone, modified Gompertz, logistic, and transference models) to find the kinetic parameters for the co-digestion of ML and PM. The methane production results proved that the addition of PM highly improved the ML methane production; the highest biodegradability and methane yield of 86% and 465 mL CH4 g−1 VS, respectively, were obtained at ML:PM ratio of 1:3, which were 160%, 26.5%, 19%, and 72% and 196%, 37%, 24%, and 66% higher than those of 1:0, 3:1, 1:1, and 0:1 mixing ratios, respectively. The cone model (as proved by low root mean square error (RMSE) and Akaike’s Information Criterion (AIC)) showed a better fit to the experimental data. The results of the present work showed the synergistic effect of co-digestion to enhance anaerobic degradation of mango leaves and pig manure for biogas production, providing a practical basis for an energy-efficient strategy for bio-waste management. © 2020, Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.Anaerobic co-digestion; Cone model; Kinetic studies; Mango leaves; Pig manureBiodegradability; Energy efficiency; Fertilizers; Fruits; Kinetic parameters; Kinetic theory; Mammals; Manures; Mean square error; Methane; Anaerobic co-digestion; Anaerobic degradation; Energy efficient strategies; Kinetic study; Mango leaves; Performance assessment; Pig manures; Root mean square errors; Anaerobic digestionNational Natural Science Foundation of China, NSFC: 21676112; Huazhong University of Science and Technology, HUST; Smoking Research Foundation, SRF; Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, MHESR; Fundamental Research Funds for the Central Universities: 2017KFKJFP002The authors would like to acknowledge the financial supports of the National Natural Science Foundation of China (No. 21676112) and Iraqi Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, Mustansiryiah University.

This paper came to determine the best way to re-habitation damaged concrete beams by comparing among four methods used in Iraq. The questionnaire form is distributed to 100 professional engineers in the construction and project management field to determine the method they prefer and advise using it in terms of strength, effort, time, and cost. The result explains more than half of the test sample prefers to use the steel section technology because it gives the strength at a reasonable time, appropriate cost and they have a lot of practical experience using it. © 2022 Author(s).Ye, L., Yue, Q., Zhao, S., Shear Strength of Reinforced Concrete Columns Strengthened with Carbon-Fiber-Reinforced Plastic Sheet (2002) J.

Let G=(V,E) be a finite, simple and undirected graph without isolated vertex, a subset D of V is a triple effect dominating set if every vertex v ∈ D dominates three vertices from V -D. The triple effect domination number, denotes γte(G) is the minimum cardinality over all triple effect dominating sets in G. More bounds and properties are studied and proved for this type of domination. Also, it is applied on several graphs. © 2022 Author(s).Abdlhusein, M.A., Doubly connected bi-domination in graphs (2021) Discrete Mathematics, Algorthem and Applications, 13 (2); Abdlhusein, M.A., Applying the (1,2)-pitchfork domination and its inverse on some special graphs (2021) Bol.

Several properties are included, PDF,CDF, moment generating function, hazard rate, reversed hazard function, odd function, quantile function, order statistics and moments are proved of the WLPD. An estimation procedure by the method of maximum likelihood, fisher matrix and a simulation are studied of WLPD.

Usually, poultry houses are located in a remote area where there is no electricity, and where there is electricity, it is expensive, so resorting to these solutions is considered important solutions to save electrical energy and provide free cooling. This research studies a numerical the influence of some plan parameters (the pipe diameter, inside condition, pipe lengths, and exit condition) and the capability of using solar energy to decrease the electricity consumption for air conditioning of poultry houses and on the overall performance of the EAHEs.. The diameter of the EAHE pipe 4 in (0.1016 m), pipe lengths of (355, 370m, 385m, 395m and 410m) and are studied solar radiation intensity 1000 W/m2 with constant flow rate. This numerical study has been done for winter and summer seasons in Nasiriyah city of southern Iraq. The simulation results showed that the combination of solar energy and EAHE can be used for cooling and heating the poultry houses and the heat released by heat exchanger reduced with increasing the outlet temperature of air and increased with increasing length of pipe of EAHE. While the overall performance factor of EAHEs declined with increase of length of pipe, also the solar energy increased with increasing length of pipe of EAHE. © 2022 Author(s).Sodha, M.S., Sawhney, R.L., Jayashankar, B.C., Sharma, A.K., Effect of different earth surface treatments on the thermal performance of a room coupled to an earthair tunnel (1990) Int.

As a result, the nerves loss their ability to send and receive messages. The electrical models of the nerve fiber have been studied extensively for the normal case. However, there are no many studies on modeling a nerve fiber infected by MS disease. In this study, we aim to quantify the distortion in the neural signal transmitted through the infected fiber. We derived a mathematical expression to the signal propagated through the disordered part. The derived expression revealed that the distortion is caused by a change in the input impedance at the disease location. Furthermore, we compute the mean square error between the samples of the signal transmitted through the infected fiber and those of the signal propagated through the normal fiber. Our results show that the signal is totally distorted when the disease covers only one internode of the fiber © 2022 Author(s).Mai, J., Paxinos, G., (2012) The Human Nervous System, , Academic press; Izhikevich, E., (2007) Dynamical systems of neuroscience-The geometry of excitability and bursting, , MIT press - London; Wilson, R.H., (1999) Spikes, decisions and actions-dynamic foundations of neuroscience, , Oxford university press; King, R.W.P., Nerves in a human body exposed to low-frequency electromagnetic fields (1999) IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, 46 (12), pp. 1426-1431; Dayan, P., Abbott, L., (2001) Theoretical neuroscience computational and mathematical modeling of neural system, , MIT press-London; Ermentrout, G., Terman, D., (2010) Mathematical foundations of neuroscience, , Springer; Rattay, F., Aberham, M., Axon membranes for functional electrical stimulation (1993) IEEE Transactions on biomedical Engineering, 40 (12), pp. 1201-1209; Hodgkin, A.L., Hexley, A.F., A quantitative description of membrane current and its application to conduction and excitation in nerve (1952) The Journal of Physiology, 117 (4), pp. 500-544; Rattay, F., The basic mechanism for the electrical stimulation for the nervous system (1999) Neuroscience, 89 (2), pp. 335-346; Chiu, S.Y., Ritchie, J.M., Rogart, R.B., Staggl, D., A quantitative description of membrane currents in rabbit myelinated nerve (1979) J.

Properties of the new breed of material are changing perpetually across the thickness direction and obeys the power-law distribution. In the current model a mixture of materials is used, i.e the inner and outer surface of the pipe is composed of ceramic materials, whereas the surface in the middle is composed of aluminium material. The vibration equations of FG pipe are obtained by using Hamilton's principle based on the Euler-Bernoulli model with (Clamped-Free) boundary conditions. The vibration frequencies of FG pipe was found by using an effective numerical method (differential quadrature (GDQ). Three models of FGM pipe are used in this paper (the proposed model and two models were taken from literature). The effects of gradient index and flow velocity on frequencies of FG fluid conveying pipes are investigated. The proposed model gave better outcomes compared with the other existing models, where the increase in natural frequencies was 17%, compared with the first model, and 21.69% compared with the second model, with the gradient index=3, moreover, this percentage of vibration frequency increases alongside with the increase of the gradient index. © 2022 Author(s).Eslami, G., Maleki, V.A., Rezaee, M., Effect of open crack on vibration behavior of a fluid-conveying pipe embedded in a visco-elastic medium (2016) Latin American Journal of Solids and Structures, 3 (1), pp. 136-154; Chellapilla, K.R., Simha, H.S., Vibrations of fluid-conveying pipes resting on two-parameter foundation (2008) Open Acoustics Journal, 1, pp. 24-33; Tornabene, F., Marzani, A., Viola, E., Elishakoff, I., Critical flow speeds of pipes conveying fluid using the generalized differential quadrature method (2010) Advances in Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, 3 (3), pp. 121-138; Lu, P., Sheng, H., Exact Eigen-relations of clamped-clamped and simply supported pipes conveying fluids (2012) International Journal of Applied Mechanics, Vol, 4 (3); Al-Hilli, A.H., Free vibration characteristics of elastically supported pipe conveying fluid (2013) ALNAHRAIN JOURNAL FOR ENGINEERING SCIENCES, 16 (1), pp. 9-19; Mostafa, N.H., Effect of a Viscoelastic foundation on the Dynamic Stability of a Fluid Conveying Pipe (2014) International Journal of Applied Science and Engineering, 12 (1), pp. 59-74; Kesimli, A., Baǧdatlh, S.M., Çanakch, S., Kesimli, A., Baǧdatlh, S.M., Çanakch, S., vibrations of fluid conveying pipe with intermediate support (2016) Res.

This architectural expansion places a great deal of responsibility on the engineer to anticipate the appropriate load for the constructor. Unfortunately, calculations of the pile's bearing capacity are not accessible. It has always been a source of concern for geotechnical engineers, as the structure's safety depends on the pile's bearing capacity and gives it a safe value. These research tests are previously known pile load test data from several locations in Nasiriyah to determine the ultimate load-carrying capacity using various interpreting methodologies. A database that was used to test the pile load for three different areas in Nasiriyah, southern Iraq: The Main Drain River Bridge Project, the Al-Eskan Interchange Project, and the Al-Hawra Hospital, as determined by analytical methods, as well as evaluating the final loading values resulting from the methods used, by ASTM D-1143, American and British Standard Code of Practice BS 800. The final capacity for the pile bearing is estimated using these approaches, which are depicted in the form of a graph-based on field data. Chin-Kondner and Brinch Hansen algorithms anticipate the highest failure load for all piles based on the comparison. On average, Chin-Kondner's ultimate load is 22% higher than Hansen's maximum load for the 22 pile load tests. Decourt and DeBeer, and Mazurkiewicz's techniques yielded the closest average failure load. Buttler-Hoy approach yielded the smallest failure load. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Pile Load Test; Ultimate Bearing,Patil, J., Shukla, J., Gadhiya, S.

It became controversial and debated how to estimate the characteristic value of soils to obtain a reliable geotechnical design with low cost and less effort. Usually, foundations are not built on the same site as the screening; investigations are carried out to excavate a little at essential sites. In this paper (423), test wells were collected in the study area to be obtained and tabulated in Excel. The kriging statistics is applied using a python script to predict the values of geotechnical site properties and reliability of the method in estimating spatially varying soil properties values based on measurement data and prior knowledge. The program implements probabilistic kriging statistics and predicts the desired value by entering the coordinates of the locations whose properties you want to know and based on the previously prepared Excel file of known points, coordinates, and property values. The program will be used in two soil sites in the city of Nasiriyah to predict its properties. These points were selected from the examination of soil investigation reports to determine the reliability and accuracy of the program in predicting values. To get more reliable probability values using the kriging method and python scripts. A huge database of prepared and analyzed engineering soil properties has been created based on field investigation reports for projects in Nasiriyah. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Characteristic values; kriging statistics; Nasiriyah city; python script; ReliabilityXu, J., Zhang, L., Wang, Y., Wang, C., Zheng, J., Yu, Y., Probabilistic estimation of cross-variogram based on Bayesian inference (2020) Eng.

Although the use of passwords provides an acceptable control and authentication, it has shown much weakness in terms of speed and integrity, which make biometrics the ideal authentication solution. As a result, electrocardiogram (ECG) signals have received a great attention in most authentication systems due to the individualized nature of the ECG signals that make them difficult to counterfeit and ubiquitous. In this paper, we propose a new model for ECG verification using multi-domain features coupled with a least square support vector machine (LS-SVM). Two types of features are investigated to find the best set of features to individual from ECG signals. Time domain and frequency domain features based on optimized Triple Band filter bank are extracted from ECG signals. The extracted features are investigated to figure out the best relevant features and remove the redundant ones. The selected features are fed to three classifiers, including Least Square Support Vector Machine (LS-SVM), K-means, and K-nearest. The obtained results have shown that our ECG biometric authentication system outperforms existing methods. The proposed model obtained an average of accuracy of 88%, 95% with time and frequency features, respectively, while it recorded 99% when a combination of time and frequency features are used to classify ECG signals. A public dataset is used to assess the proposed model. © 2022 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.authentication; ECG; frequency features; LS-SVM; time domain featuresAuthentication; Biomedical signal processing; Biometrics; Classification (of information); Frequency domain analysis; Support vector machines; Time domain analysis; Authentication methods; Classification system; Electrocardiogram signal; Frequency features; Identification method; Least square support vector machines; Multi-domain features; Time and frequencies; Time domain features; Time features; ElectrocardiographyAgrafioti, F., Gao, J., Hatzinakos, D., Yang, J., Heart biometrics: theory, methods and applications (2011) Biometrics, 3, pp. 199-216; Agrafioti, F., Hatzinakos, D., Signal validation for cardiac biometrics (2010) 2010 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing, p. 1734. , In:,.

The action potential detection approach is essential to evaluation the times at which spike activated. Recordings from the multi-electrode cuff typically have a minimum signal to noise ratio less than 10. In this paper, an LSM adaptive filter is designed and implemented employing Matlab and Xilinx Spartan 3E-100 (xc3s100e) software and hardware tool. The proposal filter shows a significant enhancement in the noise rejection and power-consuming and hardware size reduction. Furthermore, the outcomes illustrate that the LSM adaptive filter efficiently works in online neural recording with essential upgrading in the signal to noise ratio (SNR). Consequently, this improvement could lead to more spike detection accuracy. It can make the sensitivity of > 80% with a false positive rate of less than 6 Hz in recordings with SNR = 5, and it performs better than an optimal threshold detector using bandpass filter in recordings with SNR > 3. The present filter configuration offers a notable reduction of 10% in power consumption and 25% of the hardware required contrasting with the conventional approach of digital filter algorithm. Therefore, this study could suggest a crucial improvement to boost the neural recording to be applied as a control signal for the prosthetics devices. © 2021FPGA; LMS adaptive filter; Neural recordings; Noise cancellation; Spike detection; Xilinx Spartan 3EAll four authors were or currently are with the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT/ENY), Bldg. 640, 2950 P Street, Wright Patterson AFB OH 45433-7765.

A colloidal dispersion of a biphasic system including nanoparticles in the solid phase and the main fluid in the liquid phase is referred to as a nanofluid. The physical characterization of nanofluid (NFs), (Al2O3, CuO, MgO, SiO2, TiO2 and ZnO) nanofluid is done in the areas of pharmacological physics, cooling capacity, and economic performance. To make nanofluids, nanoparticles are removed into water. Nanofluid thermal conductivity and viscosity the influence of concentration and temperature on the thermal conductivity and viscosity of Nanofluids has been thoroughly studied. The thermal conductivity of nanofluids increases dramatically as concentration and temperature change. However, only a change in concentration impacted the viscosity enhancement in nanofluids. © 2021Base nanofluids; Density and viscosity; Hybrid; Nanofluid; Stability; Thermal conductivity(2021), Turki Jalil, A., Hussain Dilfy, S., Oudah Meza, S., Aravindhan, S., M Kadhim, M., & M Aljeboree, A.

The novel analytical wave solutions to the mentioned nonlinear equation in the sense of the nonlinear ordinary differential transform equation are obtained. The techniques are the improved exp-Γϖ function method and the improved simple equation method. The nonlinear ordinary transform to concern the generalized Schrodinger equation to convert it for a solvable integer-order differential equation is used. After the successful implementation of the presented methods, the exact solitary wave solutions in the form of trigonometric, rational, and hyperbolic functions are obtained. Hence, the presented methods are relatable and efficient to solve nonlinear problems in mathematical physics. © 2022 Xiaoyan Li et al.Lakestani, M., Manafian, J., Novel dark, singular and combo optical solitons for Fokas-Lenells equation (2019) Acta Physica Polonica A, 136 (1), pp. 214-224;

Manual detection of PCOS is a challenging task for specialists, however, detection of PCOS as quick and accurate could save the lives of millions of women over the world. Current studies use high dimension features which leads to a low estimation accuracy, and high execution time. However, in this article, we develop a new intelligence system to classify PCOS based on k-means coupled with a LS-SVM (K-M-SVM) using a lower number of features. The original dataset is preprocessed and then k-means is applied to select the most powerful features based on Euclidean distance to classify PCOS. It was found that the k-means cluster had a high potential in selection the most influential features and eliminating the poor ones. As a result, a total of six features are chosen to represent PCOS data from the original features. The selected feature set are fed to the LS-SVM to classify them into healthy and no healthy segments. Our findings showed that the proposed model (K-M-SVM) outperformed the state of the art, and it gained an accuracy of 99%. © 2022 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.detection; k-means; least square support vector machine (SLSVM); PCOSKrishnaveni, V., A roadmap to a clinical prediction model with computational intelligence for PCOS (2019) Int J Manag Technol Eng, 9 (2), pp. 177-185; Gopalakrishnan, C., Iyapparaja, M., Multilevel thresholding based follicle detection and classification of polycystic ovary syndrome from the ultrasound images using machine learning (2021) Int J Syst Assur Eng Manag, pp. 1-8; Inan, M.S., Ulfath, R.E., Alam, F.I., Bappee, F.K., Hasan, R., Improved sampling and feature selection to support extreme gradient boosting for PCOS diagnosis.

Numerous researches have been conducted on the manifestations of a skin disease related to COVID-19, i.e., rashes or Pityriasis rosea (PR), vascular markings, and pimple-like lesions. AIM: This study aims to find out if the Coronavirus can affect the PR development, which also can be considered as a trigger and symptom for other types of infections. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This study is a case series describing the dermatological findings related to COVID-19 in the Thi-Qar Governorate. Samples were taken from inpatients, outpatients, and from the emergency unit of Al Hussein Teaching Hospital, and inwards of Al-Shefaa' Isolation Hospital. The study has been done over a 4 month period (June-September, 2020.). RESULTS: Around 19 patients, 10 females (52.6%) and 9 males (47.4%), who were infected with Coronavirus and were suffering from PR, are included in this study. The distribution of patients according to the incidence of PR in typical and anomalous manners were 77.9% and 21.1% respectively. The highest percentage of the incidence of PR was in moderate COVID-19 (84.2%), while it was around 15.8% in mild COVID-19. There was no significant statistical difference in the mean age distribution according to gender, while there was a significant statistical difference according to PR and COVID-19 class. More studies are needed to evaluate whether or not these lesions are associated with the virus. CONCLUSION: The PR was one of the dermatological finding of COVID-19 that did not have a clear role in the distribution of the disease according to the background of the patients, and also the severity of COVID-19. It can be triggered by COVID-19 and be completely cured with the clearance of the disease. RECOMMENDATION: An accurate robust cutaneous documentation related to COVID-19 is required to improve the knowledge of the disease as well as its epidemiology.COVID-19; PCR; PRfemale; hospital emergency service; human; male; pandemic; pityriasis rosea; COVID-19; Emergency Service, Hospital; Female; Humans; Male; Pandemics; Pityriasis Rosea; SARS-CoV-2NLM (Medline)2561874135686902EnglishJ Popul Ther Clin PharmacolArticleFinalScopus2-s2.0-85131903218

Department, IraqNajm, N., University of Thi – Qar, Iraq; Ataiwi, A.H., Ashur University College, Iraq; Anaee, R.A., University of Technology – Materials Eng. Department, IraqThe corrosion behavior of annealed AZ31 Mg alloy was studied in simulated body fluid (SBF) by electrochemical technique to investigate the role of coating with Indium by DC sputtering without and with oxygen. The coating by (In) in absence of oxygen enhances the stability of the corrosion product as MgO through reducing the corrosion current density. While the presence of oxygen during coating accelerates the corrosion rate due to increasing the cathodic polarization through the reduction of oxygen and then increasing the dissolution of Mg from the substrate. The coating by (In) gave protection efficiency reach to (21.008%). While the presence of oxygen during DC sputtering promotes the cathodic area on grains as (In2O3) leading to localize the corrosion around the AlMn phases at the grain boundaries. The uncoated and coated surfaces were examined by XRD analysis and SEM images. © 2022AZ31 Mg alloy; Bioimplant; Corrosion properties; DC sputtering; Indium coating; SBFTechnische Universiteit Delft, TU DelftThe authors extend their sincere gratitude to university of technology, Iraq.Song, G.L., Corrosion electrochemistry of magnesium and its alloys (2011) Woodhead Publishing, pp. 3-65; Emley, E., Principles of magnesium technology (1966), Pergamon Press; Pardo, A., Merino, M., Coy, A., Viejo, F., Arraba, R., Jr, S.F., Influence of microstructure and composition on the corrosion behaviour of Mg/Al alloys in chloride media (2008) Electrochim.

The ratios of replacement natural coarse aggregate by RCA were (0, 35, 55, and 75%) and the volume fraction of the steel fiber used in this study was 1.2%. Two strengthening methods were used, namely, externally bonded reinforcement (EBR) and externally bonded reinforcement on groove (EBROG). 16 square slabs were cast with overall dimensions of 800 mm by 800 mm by 80 mm thickness. The slabs were designed to fail in punching shear only. All the slabs were simply supported on four edges and tested for punching via a vertical load applied through the square central column. The test results showed that the mechanical properties, ultimate loads, and first crack loads decreased with increasing proportion of RCA replacement, while the incorporation of steel fibers improved the compressive strength and ultimate loads by the ranges of 12%–17% and 16%–25%, respectively. Strengthened slabs lead to considerable improvements in the punching behavior of slabs, with an increase in punching load ranging from 22–30% compared to unstrengthened slabs when using the EBR technique, while the increase in the punching loads ranged between 40 and 55% when using EBROG strengthening technique. However, using half amount of CFRP with the EBROG method led to an increase in punching shear of 20–28%. This research indicates the particular improvement offered by the EBROG with regard to the punching shear capacity of fibrous recycled coarse aggregate concrete (RCAC) slabs compared to the EBR method. In addition, the mode of failure of reinforced concrete (RC) slabs changed from one of debonding failure to concrete cover separation when using the EBROG method. © The Author(s) 2022.carbon fiber reinforced polymer; grooving method; Punching shear; recycled coarse aggregate; steel fiber; strengtheningCompressive strength; Concrete aggregates; Concrete slabs; Recycling; Reinforced concrete; Steel fibers; Strengthening (metal); Bonded reinforcement; Carbon fibre reinforced polymer; Externally bonded; Grooving method; Punching load; Punching shear; Recycled coarse aggregate; Steel fiber; Strengthening; Ultimate loads; Carbon fiber reinforced plasticsAbdel-Rahman, A., Hassan, N., Soliman, A., Punching shear behavior of reinforced concrete slabs using steel fibers in the mix (2018) HBRC Journal, 14 (3), pp. 272-281; Altaee, M., Khudair, J., Punching Behavior of self-compacting concrete slabs incorporating coarse recycled concrete aggregates (2020) Wasit Journal of Engineering Sciences, 8 (1), pp. 1-11; (2015) Standard Specification for Deformed and Plain Carbon Steel Bars for Concrete Reinforcement, pp. 1-6. , (., –; (2014) Standard Test Method for Static Modulus of Elasticity and Poissons Ratio of Concrete in Compression, pp. 1-5. , (., –; Azizi, R., Talaeitaba, S., Punching shear strengthening of flat slabs with CFRP on grooves (EBROG) and external rebars sticking in grooves (2019) International Journal of Advanced Structural Engineering, 11 (1), pp. 79-95; Behbahani, H., Nematollahi, B., MohdSam, A., Flexural behavior of steel-fiber-added-RC (SFARC) beams with C30 and C50 classes of concrete (2012) International Journal of Sustainable Construction Engineering and Technology, 3 (1), pp. 54-64; Belarbi, A., Acun, B., FRP systems in shear strengthening of reinforced concrete structures (2013) Procedia Engineering, 57, pp. 2-8; Bhan, C., Kaur, M., Strength characteristics of recycled concrete aggregate with addition of steel fibres (2018) International Journal of Advance Research and Development, 3 (11), pp. 10-15; Binici, B., Bayrak, O., Punching shear strengthening of reinforced concrete flat plates using carbon fiber reinforced polymers (2003) Journal of Structural Engineering, 129 (9), pp. 1173-1182; (2002) Testing Hardened Concrete.

The parameter values of the coupling strength (η) and delay time (τ) (mirrors respond as fast and slow-response photorefractive mirrors) are modified to examine the sensitivity of routes to chaos with variation in the phase-conjugate mirrors. Both routes are found to be highly sensitive to the phase conjugate coupling effect. Instability and homoclinic chaotic can be observed in such a system. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to The Optical Society of India.Chaos; Incoherent optical feedback; Phase conjugate; Quantum dot laserChaos theory; Mirrors; Nanocrystals; Optical feedback; Probability distributions; Quantum dot lasers; Sensitivity analysis; Bifurcation diagram; Double Period; Incoherent optical feedback; Inter spike intervals; Interval probability; Phase-conjugate; Quantum-dot lasers; Quasi-periodic; Routes to chaos; Times series; Semiconductor quantum dotsThis work is supported by the Nassiriya Nanotechnology Research Laboratory (NNRL), Science College, University of Thi Qar, Iraq.Kim, S.M., Wang, Y., Keever, M., Harris, J.S., High-frequency modulation characteristics of 1.3-μm InGaAs quantum dot lasers (2004) IEEE Photon.

The optimal primary and backup paths are calculated by implementing path and bandwidth protection schemes within the model for each multicast flow. The analysis of obtained solutions was carried out in work. The model's operability for implementing the specified protection schemes and their optimality according to variants of the used routing metrics has been confirmed. The proposed mathematical model can be used to develop protocols for fault-tolerant multicast routing of multimedia flows. © 2022 IEEE.Bandwidth Protection; Fast ReRoute; Fault-tolerant routing; Multicast; Network Resilience; Path ProtectionBandwidth; Fault tolerance; Network routing; Bandwidth protection; Fast reroute; Fault tolerant routing; Fault-tolerant; Flow based; Multicast flow; Multicast routing; Network resilience; Path protection; Protection schemes; MulticastingThis paper is based upon work within the Erasmus+ project Jean Monnet module.Loveless, J., (2016) IP Multicast, Volume I: Cisco IP Multicast Networking (Networking Technology), , 1st Edition, Cisco press; Rosenberg, E., (2012) A Primer of Multicast Routing, , Springer Briefs in Computer Science; Hussain, M.Z., (2017) IP Multicast Techniques with Resilient Network Design: A Real Life System Design and Implementation to Connect Long Distance Remote, , LAP LAMBERT Academic Publishing; Smelyakov, K., Chupryna, A., Bohomolov, O., Hunko, N., The neural network models effectiveness for face detection and face recognition (2021) 2021 IEEE Open Conference of Electrical, Electronic and Information Sciences (EStream), pp. 1-7; Strelkovskaya, I., Solovskaya, I., Makoganiuk, A., Optimization of QoS chracteristics of self-similar traffic (2017) 2017 4th International Scientific-Practical Conference Problems of Infocommunications.

The first one is traditional extraction which can be called liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) or solvent extraction, while the second is modern extraction, namely cloud point extraction (CPE). 3-Chloro-2,4-pentanedione was used as a complexing agent that is one of β-diketone that have an interesting in extracting copper ions. The current study showed that cloud point extraction (E%=92, D=11.594, LogD= 1.064233296) is more efficient than its counterpart (E%=80, D=4.089, LogD= 0.611). The cloud point extraction was studied using Triton X-100 as a non-ionic surfactant and ethyl acetate as a solvent. Also, complex CuA-Cl was prepared and characterized by elemental analysis and mass and UV-visible spectrometries. © 2022 Sami Publishing Company.

The Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) exchanges routing information between autonomous domains. Anomalies in BGP are exceptional (misconfiguration, outage, and attacks). When they happen, the consequences can be widely hurtful. Anomaly detection in the internet routing section does not follow the normal behavior as an element. It is more important than anything else to detect internet routing anomalies using the BGP update messages quickly and accurately. This paper will propose a Short-Term Long Memory-based Autoencoders network (LSTM-AE) method for internet routing anomaly detection and trains itself to repeat clean datasets effectively. These memory units are a type of artificial Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN) architecture used in deep learning, are convenient for historical study time series modeling and anomaly detection using LSTM memory units instead of ordinary neurons to build the coder. Using LSTM-AE detects anomalies in 11 events to four kinds of anomalies through the data collected as time series. © 2022 IEEE.Anomaly Detection; Autoencoder; BGP; Deep Learning; LSTM; Time SeriesAnomaly detection;

This paper presents the design and manufacture technique of a tact hand, an anthropomorphic, open-source (O-S), Myoelectric Prosthetic Hand (MPH) for persons with transradial amputations in emerging state. The design process is based on balancing workability, cost, efficiency, durability, and effectiveness, and then manufacturing using 3D printing technology (3D-P). The findings showed that using lighter and hollow materials instead of rigid injection molded plastic materials reduced fatigue and pain caused by mass distributing to smoother tissues. But create the sensitivity hand system process, predict the sensitivity hand using qualitative and quantifiable events of enactment, and present samples of the usage of this hand to grab domestic things. The validation and findings were determined by comparing them to related studies, such as section four, where the functional usefulness of utilizing the hand to demonstrate a range of household items was discussed. Items like the water bottle and bottle cap, and the use of a 3-jaw chuck, key grip, and tool grip, were all simply understood by the tip. We combine electromyographic pattern recognition for motor control, contact reflexes, and sensory substitution to deliver input to the user. When compared to standard myoelectric prostheses that lack these features, the quality of rotation and other motions has also improved, and using contact reflexes and sensory substitution progresses grasping of delicate objects like an eggshell and a cup of water both with and without visual feedback. It can be shown that average intensity features (AIH) performed better than other feature sets (ACC ${AIH}=0.952954668\%, {PAIH}=0.966836735\%,\ {SAIH}=0.979323844\%$). We label our diagram process, estimate the Sensitivity hand $(\mathrm{S}\_{AIH}=0.979323844\%)$ with together qualitative and measurable events of enactment, and show samples of this hand to grip domestic objects. © 2022 IEEE.3D Printing; AIH; Myoelectric Prosthetic Hand; Open-Source3D printers; Artificial limbs; Design; Injection molding; Neurophysiology; Sensory feedback; Visual communication; 3-D printing; 3D-printing; AIH; Creatives; Hand-design; Myoelectric prosthetic hand; Open-source; Prosthetic hands; Sensory substitution; Terminal systems; BottlesFaudzi, A.A.M., Ooga, J., Goto, T., Takeichi, M., Suzumori, K.J.I.R., Letters, A., (2017) Index finger of a human-like robotic hand using thin soft muscles, 3 (1), pp. 92-99; Wang, N., Lao, K., Zhang, X.J.J.O.B.E., (2017) Design and myoelectric control of an anthropomorphic prosthetic hand, 14 (1), pp. 47-59; Ha, N., Withanachchi, G.P., Yihun, Y.J.J.O.B.E., (2019) Performance of forearm FMG for estimating hand gestures and prosthetic hand control, 16 (1), pp. 88-98; Yoshikawa, M., Sato, R., Higashihara, T., Ogasawara, T., Kawashima, N., Rehand: Realistic electric prosthetic hand created with a 3D printer (2015) 2015 37th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (EMBC), pp. 2470-2473; Jeong, S.H., Kim, K.-S., Kim, S.J.I.R., Letters, A., (2017) Designing anthropomorphic robot hand with active dual-mode twisted string actuation mechanism and tiny tension sensors, 2 (3), pp. 1571-1578; Andrianesis, K., Tzes, A.J.J.O.I., Systems, R., (2015) Development and control of a multifunctional prosthetic hand with shape memory alloy actuators, 78 (2), pp. 257-289; Wu, L., (2017) Compact and low-cost humanoid hand powered by nylon artificial muscles, 12 (2), p. 26004; Teng, Z., Design of an underactuated prosthetic hand with flexible multi-joint fingers and eeg-based control (2018) 2018 IEEE International Conference on Cyborg and Bionic Systems (CBS), pp. 647-651; Jones, G., Rosendo, A., Stopforth, R., Prosthetic design directives: Low-cost hands within reach (2017) 2017 International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics (ICORR), pp. 1524-1530; Jiang, L., Zeng, B., Fan, S., Sun, K., Zhang, T., Liu, H., A modular multisensory prosthetic hand (2014) 2014 IEEE International Conference on Information and Automation (ICIA), pp. 648-653; Kim, H.-I., Han, M.-W., Wang, W., Song, S.-H., Rodrigue, H., Ahn, S.-H., Design and development of bio-mimetic soft robotic hand with shape memory alloy (2015) 2015 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Biomimetics (ROBIO), pp. 2330-2334; Saab, W., Rone, W.S., Kumar, A., Ben-Tzvi, P.J.I.A.T.O.M., (2019) Design and integration of a novel spatial articulated robotic tail, 24 (2), pp. 434-446; Haverkate, L., Smit, G., Plettenburg, D.H., Assessment of body-powered upper limb prostheses by able-bodied subjects, using the Box and Blocks Test and the Nine-Hole Peg Test (2016) Prosthetics and Orthotics International, 40 (1), pp. 109-116; Belter, J.T., Leddy, M.T., Gemmell, K.D., Dollar, A.M., Comparative clinical evaluation of the Yale Multigrasp Hand (2016) 2016 6th IEEE International Conference on Biomedical Robotics and Biomechatronics (BioRob), pp. 528-535; Kamikawa, Y., Maeno, T., Underactuated five-finger prosthetic hand inspired by grasping force distribution of humans (2008) Intelligent Robots and Systems, 2008.

The first part describes the synthesis of a new series of organotellurium compounds containing azomethine groups. Reaction of (E)-(4-((1,7,7-trimethyl bicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-ylidene)amino)phenyl)mercury(II)chloride and (E)-(5-methyl-2-((1,7,7-trimethylbicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-ylidene)amino)phenyl) mercury(II)chloride with tellurium tetrabromide in 2:1 mole ratio yielded the tellurated Schiff bases Ar2TeBr2 (where Ar = 1-(C9H16C=N)C=N)C6H4 and 1-(C9H16C=N)C=N)-4-CH3C6H3) respectively. Reduction of organyl tellurium dibromide Ar2TeBr2 by hydrazine hydrate obtained the corresponding tellurides (i.e., Ar2Te) in good yields. Characterization of the prepared compounds was carried out using infrared spectrum (FT-IR), proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum (1H-NMR), and elemental analysis (CHN). The molecular structure of the organotellurium compounds was investigated using the density functional theory with hybrid functional (B3LYP), and the basis set 6-31G Geometrical structure, HOMO surfaces, LUMO surfaces, and energy gap have been produced throughout the geometry optimization. The molecular geometry and contours for the organotellurium compounds were investigated throughout the geometrical optimization. The donor and acceptor properties have been studied by comparing organotellurium compounds' highest occupied molecular orbital energies (HOMO). The present study aims to prepare organotellurium compounds derived from aniline, p-toluidine, and camphor and their derivatives using tellurated Schiff bases. © 2022, Gadjah Mada University.

MWCNT was incorporated in a nanocomposite not only to prevent the restacking of graphene but also to increase the electron transfer from TiO2. The detailed characterization of the nanocomposite was performed using SEM and XRD due to the improved electron transfer and the higher adsorption for N719. It showed energy conversion efficiency (8.96%) which is good compared to pure TiO2 (8.147%).

This paper studies the engineering properties of a model of Nasiriyah soil. It aims to calculate the distinctive value of Nasiriyah soil and describe the different identification methods for laboratory tests. Knowledge of the properties of engineering parameters is essential for accurate design, measurement methods, and geotechnical investigation, and the Eurocode 7 approach of the soil is essential for geotechnical design. Therefore data were collected, and the characteristic values were determined using statistical methods. Three project sites in Nasiriyah city were studied to determine the correlation of soil strength parameters and calculate the characteristic value based on Eurocode 7. The study results showed that the Marquez method and Schneider's equations give characteristic values with a 95% reliable and economical design within the measured data range, taking into account the average, coefficient of variation of the site, and the number of measured data. It is found that the most appropriate characteristic values of the soil of the studied sites are less than the mean by half a standard deviation. © 2022Characteristic values; Eurocode 7; Nasiriyah city; Reliability-based design; Statistical operationsThanks and gratitude to the laboratories of Thi Qar university for their support in providing soil investigation data.

These plasmas were generated by irradiation of the metallic target with laser pulses of high peak power in room environment. Both electron density and electron temperature were determined for the three targets at different peak laser powers using the ratios of line intensities based on the obtained emission spectra. Electron temperatures were determined in the range 0.34-0.442 eV for copper target at laser power of 70 MW, 0.281-0.418 eV for titanium target at laser power of 60 MW, and 0.35-0.46 eV for nickel target at laser power of 70 MW. © 2022, Iraqi Society for Alternative and Renewable Energy Sources and Techniques (I.S.A.R.E.S.T.).

Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) strains are the most frequent uropathies linked to the development of UTIs. This work aims to introduce bioactive natural products via virtual screening of small molecules from a public database to prevent biofilm formation by inhibiting FimH, a type 1 fimbriae that plays a crucial role in UPEC pathogenicity. A total of 30926 small molecules from the NPASS database were subjected to screening via molecular docking. Followed by performing in silico ADME studies, seven molecules showed promising docking results ranging from −6.8 to −8.7 kcal/mol. As a result of the docking score findings, 100 ns Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were performed. Based on MM-PBSA analysis, NPC313334 ligand showed high binding affinity −42 and stability with the binding pocket of FimH protein during molecular dynamic simulations. DFT calculations were also performed on the ligands to calculate the HOMO-LUMO energies of the compounds in order to an idea about their structure and reactivity. This research suggests that NPC313334 may be a possible antibacterial drug candidate that targets FimH to reduce the number of UPEC-related urinary tract infections. Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Other emulsions, such as those produced of crude oil droplets suspended in brine or water (O/W), are uncommon. When crude oil is removed from a reservoir, it is contaminated with sediments and water, among other impurities. Natural emulsifiers include resins, asphaltenes, waxes, crude particles, and carboxylic acids. At the water-oil interface, some of these components may clump together, generating a stable film surrounding the droplets, by preventing water droplets from clumping, this film aids in the formation of a stable w/o emulsion. Water and crude oil production could raise a number of concerns. This could include the cost of pumping or transporting water via tanker or pipeline, as well as manufacturing facility corrosion. Chemical demulsification is the process of destabilizing the shielding interfacial layers with chemicals, resulting in a quicker emulsion breakdown rate. As a cost-effective and effective method of dewatering crude oil emulsions, chemical additives are frequently used. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd.

Surface-active compounds called demulsifiers are frequently used to manage petroleum emulsions. Demulsifiers can disrupt the interface between water and oil, separating the two into separate phases. This research intends to identify emulsion formation methods and reasons for emulsion stability, as well as demulsification techniques employed in recent years and the characteristics influencing the demulsification process. demulsification procedures are classified into two types: physical and chemical methods, which we will discuss more in this review. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd.

The optical character recognition (OCR) technique presents a simple tool to combine text recognition functionality to many industrial and educational applications. Best OCR results can be acquired when the background of the text image is uniform and appears as a document picture. In contrast, the challenges to recognizing accurate texts occur when the image has a non-uniform background that require further preprocessing to obtain acceptable OCR result. This work discusses three scenarios. Initially, this work will test the OCR on a normal business card as an image with a uniform background. Next, discusses the text recognition of a keypad image including digits with a non-uniform background. Here, there are two preprocessing algorithms used to enhance the OCR function to overcome the negative effect of the non-uniform background of images and to detect text with high accuracy. Finally, the developed OCR method is tested on different scanned bills and discusses the variation of the obtained results. The two algorithms are the morphological reconstruction to eliminate artifacts and create cleaner images to be further processed by OCR and the Region of Interest ROI-based OCR to spot explicit regions in a tested image. Verification for the effectiveness of the Morphological-based OCR over the ROI-based method has been conducted on a dataset of scanned electricity bills images with an accuracy of 98.2 % for Morphological-based while it is only about 89.3 % for ROI-based OCR © 2022, Authors.

Different livestock plays an essential role in global milk production. This study was designed to evaluate different chemical and physical components of milk in four groups of livestock, including cows, buffalos, sheep, and goats. To this end, 200 raw milk samples were collected from cows, buffalos, sheep, and goats (n=50) across Dhi-Qar Governorate, Iraq, for a period of one year (from 01.10.2018 to 01.06.2019). The findings showed sheep and buffalos milk samples had a significantly higher percentage of total solids (TS%), compared to cows and goats milk samples (P0.05). However, there were no significant differences in the TS% between sheep and buffalos milk samples. Furthermore, the mean TS% values in cows, buffalos, sheep, and goats milk samples were determined at 11.14%, 12.87%, 13.26%, and 11.33%, respectively. As for fat percentage (F%), buffalos milk samples had significantly higher F% (4.80%), compared to milk samples of cows, sheep, and goats (P0.05). Additionally, sheep s milk samples had significantly higher F% (P0.05) than cows and goats milk samples determined at 2.78%, 4.20%, and 2.98%, respectively. The findings showed the percentage of solids not fat (SNF%) was significantly higher in sheep s milk (8.97%), compared to milk samples of cows, buffalos, and goats (P0.05). Additionally, it was found that the SNF% was significantly higher (P0.05) in Buffalos milk samples, compared to cows and goats milk samples determined at 8.36%, 8.60%, and 8.35%, respectively. Moreover, the results revealed that the percentage of milk protein content in sheep s milk was significantly higher than the cows, buffalos, and goats milk (P0.05). Recorded data also showed no significant differences in the percentage of milk lactose among cows, buffalos, sheep, and goats milk samples (P0.05). Furthermore, the findings illustrated that the percentage of milk ash (Ash%) in sheep s milk samples was significantly higher than the cows, buffalos, as well as goats milk samples (P0.05), and no significant differences were observed among cows, buffalos, and goats milk samples in the Ash% (P0.05). In addition, there were no significant differences in the specific gravity among different milk samples (P0.05).

Osteoporosis (OP) is a worldwide ailment; we aim to establish new biomarkers in diagnosis by determining the levels of serum osteocalcin and osteopontin along with bone mineral density (BMD) and lumbar T-score, in postmenopausal women with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with or without OP. Methods. This observational study included 160 postmenopausal women who were an attendee at outpatient clinics in Al-Hussein Hospital, Thi-Qar province; subdivided into 3 groups based on their T-score testing: Group I (n = 40) comprised postmenopausal women without T2DM as controls, Group II (n = 60) comprised postmenopausal women with T2DM but without OP, and Group III (n = 60) comprised postmenopausal women with T2DM with OP. The dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry was used to measure the BMD (total body, lumbar spine, and femoral) and T-score for lumbar spine and femoral. Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), fasting blood glucose (FBG), osteocalcin, and osteopontin levels were assessed in all three groups. Results. Compared with controls, Group III demonstrated significantly lower BMD (total body, lumbar spine, and femoral), T-score for lumbar spine and femoral, serum osteocalcin, and osteopontin levels than Group II and Group I (P<0.001). FBG and HbA1c levels were significantly higher in Group III than in Groups I and II (P<0.001). A negative correlation was proved between HbA1c levels with BMD, osteocalcin levels, and osteopontin levels in the three groups. Conclusions. Iraqi postmenopausal women with T2DM had a significantly lower bone mineral density, serum osteocalcin, and osteopontin levels. These results may serve as adjuvants in screening for OP, particularly among diabetic patients. © 2022 Ali B.

The brief mathematical modeling, along with induced magnetic field, of hyperbolic tangent nanofluid is given. The governing equations are reduced to dimensionless form by using appropriate transformations. Exact solutions are calculated for temperature, nanoparticle volume fraction, and concentration. Numerical technique is manipulated to solve the highly non-linear differential equations. The roll of different variables is graphically analyzed in terms of concentration, temperature, volume fraction of nanoparticles, axial induced magnetic field, magnetic force function, stream functions, pressure rise, and pressure gradient. © 2022 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.double-diffusive convection; hyperbolic tangent fluid; induced magnetic field; non-uniform channelDifferential equations; Heat convection; Magnetic fields; Nanofluidics; Nanomagnetics; Nanoparticles; Volume fraction; Double-diffusive convection; Hyperbolic tangent; Hyperbolic tangent fluid; Induced magnetic fields; Nanofluids; Non-uniform; Non-uniform channel; Peristaltic flows; Peristaltic pumping; Thermal; Hyperbolic functionsLatham, T.W., (1966) Fluid Motion in a Peristaltic Pump, , M.Sc.

A total of 396 blood samples were collected from livestock. Two species of the hard ticks were identified as Hyalomma anatolicum and H. turanicum with earlier predominant (64.7 vs. 35.3%). Of these ticks, 116 were female and 210 were males. The monthly infections were higher in June (47.22 and 43.48%) but lower during July (16.67 and 20.00%) in cattle and sheep, respectively. The results revealed that 37.90% (n=83) and 31.07% (n=55) of the samples were positive to Theileriosis. © 2021 Iranian Society of Ichthyology.Hard ticks.

Box 55431, Ramadi, IraqThis study aims at investigating the extent to which the aesthetic effect (AE) in Gibran's The Prophet has been maintained among Arab recipients in four translations of this masterpiece, namely Okasha (2000), Nuaimy (2013), Al-ābid (2017), and Antonius (2017). To this end, the source text (ST) AE laden segments and their target text (TT) counterparts are compared in terms of lexical selection, sentence structure, and metaphors employed. Data of the study comprised typical illustrative examples randomly selected for analysis according to Yan Fu's (2012, cited in Zhang 2013) triple translation criteria of faithfulness, expressiveness, and elegance in combination with Nida's (1964) functional equivalence. Findings of the study revealed that the selected translations exhibit different levels of adequacy in terms of expressing the AE in the TT. Specifically, Okasha's translation seems more creatively adequate in producing in the TT the approximate AE of the ST, whereas the other translations are sometimes less adequate or even inadequate in this respect. © Penerbit Universiti Sains Malaysia, 2022.

The generation of solar fuel-based water splitting and CO2 photoreduction is excellent for generating alternative resources and reducing global warming. Developing an inexpensive photocatalyst can effectively split water into hydrogen (H2), oxygen (O2) sources, and carbon dioxide (CO2) into fuel sources, which is a crucial problem in photocatalysis. The metal-free g-C3N4 photocatalyst has a high solar fuel generation potential. This review covers the most recent advancements in g-C3N4 preparation, including innovative design concepts and new synthesis methods, and novel ideas for expanding the light absorption of pure g-C3N4 for photocatalytic application. Similarly, the main issue concerning research and prospects in photocatalysts based g-C3N4 was also discussed. The current dissertation provides an overview of comprehensive understanding of the exploitation of the extraordinary systemic and characteristics, as well as the fabrication processes and uses of g-C3N4. © 2022 The Chemical Society of Japan & Wiley-VCH GmbHCO2 reduction; dye degradation; g-C3N4; Photocatalysis; Water-splittingMinistry of Higher Education, Malaysia, MOHE: PRGS/1/2021/STG04/UITM/02/1; Princess Nourah Bint Abdulrahman University, PNU: PNURSP2022R185; Universiti Teknologi MARA, UiTM; Deanship of Scientific Research, King Faisal University, DSR, KFU: R.G.P. 2/59/42This project was funded by Princess Nourah bint Abdulrahman University Researchers Supporting Project number (PNURSP2022R185), Princess Nourah bint Abdulrahman University, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

For any non-negative integers x and y, a set D ⊆V is a "pitchfork dominating set pds", when every vertex in D, dominates at most y and at least x vertices of V -D. A subset D-1 of V -D is an inverse pds if it is a pitchfork set. The pitchfork domination number of G, γpf (G), is the number of elements of a smallest pds. The "inverse pitchfork domination number" of G, -1 γpf (G), is the number of elements of a smallest inverse pds. In this paper, some modified pitchfork dominations and its inverse dominations are introduced when x = 1 and y = 2. Several bounds and properties are given and proved. Then, these modified dominations are applied on some standard graphs such as: Path, cycle, wheel, complete, complete bipartite graph and their complements. © 2022 Boletim da Sociedade Paranaense de Matematica.

The temperature and pH were measured during phytoplankton growth periods in 3 seasons of 2019. Diatoms formed the largest taxa of the phytoplankton and biomass of phytoplankton (67.56% of the total species composition in spring at station 4). Total number of phytoplankton was 413.33 to 1030 (Cell*103/L), while phytoplankton biomass ranged 33.94-1028.03mg/l. In the early spring, Nitzschia sp. and N. scalaris, N. subtilis, Melosira varians, Cyclotella meneghiniana, in summer, N. distans and Cyclotella meneghiniana, M. varians, N. scalaris, eptocylindrus minimus were dominant. Based on the results, the abundance peaks for blue-green algea occur in summer. © 2021 Iranian Society of Ichthyology.Biomass; Phytoplankton; Relative abundance; River Don; Spatial and seasonal variationAntoine, S.E., AL-Saadi, H.A., Limnological studies on polluted Ashar canal and Shatt al-Arab at basrah (Iraq) (1982) Internationale Revue der Gesamten Hydrobiologie, 67, pp. 405-418; Atici, T., Obali, O., Seasonal variation of phytoplankton and value of chlorophyll-a in the Sarıyar Dam Reservoir (Ankara, Turkey) (2006) Turkish Journal of Botany, 30 (5), pp. 349-357; Battarbee, R.W., Smol, J.P., Meriläinen, J., l986.

Higher levels of flogosis mediators such as TNF, C-reactive protein (CRP), IL-1, IL-6, leptin, and resistin, as well as increased levels of TNF, C-reactive protein (CRP), IL-1, IL-6, leptin, and resistin, define diabetes. The goal of this study is to evaluate the levels of D-dimer, total serum bilirubin (TSB), glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT), glutamic pyruvic transaminase (GPT), and CRP in diabetic patients with COVID-19 infection to COVID-19 patients without diabetes. Blood samples were collected from individuals with diabetes who had COVID-19 and non-diabetic COVID patients as control. Moreover, D-dimer and CRP were evaluated by using Min Vidus and Latx, respectively, whereas AccEnT 200 system was used to measure the serum level of TSB, GPT, and GOT in the hematology lab. Also demonstrated that the average serum concentration of D-dimer, GOT and CRP was high in diabetic COVID-19-infected patients (980.66 ng/mL, 67.71 U/L, and 27.06 mg/L, respectively) compared with non-diabetic COVID-19-infected patients (791.17 ng/mL, 54.023 U/L and 20.11 mg/L, respectively) (p < 0.05), while the situation was inverse for the average concentration of TSB and GTP when their average concentrations were low in diabetic COVID-19-infected patients (12.89 Mmol/L and 59.79 U/L, respectively) (p > 0.05). Moreover, the cut-off values for serum D-dimer, TSB, GPT, GOT, and CRP of COVID-19-infected diabetic patients were ≥ 6500 ng/mL, ≥ 350 Mmol/L, ≥ 133 U/L mg/L, ≥ 150 U/L, and ≥ 15.22 mg/L, respectively, represented a perfect test for predicting COVID-19-infected diabetic patients with 100% sensitivity and specificity. In conclusion, serum D-dimer, TSB, GPT, GOT and CRP increased in diabetic COVID-19-infected patients compared to non-diabetic COVID-19 patients and the D-dimer concentration also increases. TSB and CRP were more pronounced among diabetic patients with corona, while liver enzyme concentrations were decreased. © 2021, King Abdulaziz City for Science and Technology.COVID-19; CRP; D-dimer; Diabetic; GOT; GPT; TSBBiomarkers; Dimers; Hormones; Proteins; C-reactive proteins; Coronavirus disease 2019; Coronaviruses; D dimers; Diabetic; Glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase; Glutamic-pyruvic transaminase; Infected patients; Serum bilirubin; Total serum bilirubin; CoronavirusAbosaooda, M., Wajdy, J.M., Hussein, E.A., Jalil, A.T., Kadhim, M.M., Abdullah, M.M., Role of vitamin C in the protection of the gum and implants in the human body: theoretical and experimental studies (2021) Int J Corros Scale Inhib, 10 (3), pp. 1213-1229; Bornstein, S.R., Rubino, F., Khunti, K., Mingrone, G., Practical recommendations for the management of diabetes in patients with COVID-19 (2020) Lancet Diabetes Endocrinol, 8, pp. 546-550. , COI: 1:CAS:528:DC%2BB3cXotVCguro%3D; Cheung, K.S., Hung, I.F.N., Chan, P.P.Y., Lung, K.C., Gastrointestinal manifestations of SARS-CoV-2 infection and virus load in fecal samples from the Hong Kong cohort and systematic review and meta-analysis (2020) Gastroenterology, 159 (1), pp. 81-95. , COI: 1:CAS:528:DC%2BB3cXhsVaqur%2FN; Connors, J.M., Levy, J.H., COVID-19 and its implications for thrombosis and anticoagulation (2020) Blood, 135, pp. 2033-2040. , COI: 1:CAS:528:DC%2BB3cXhtlSjs7nJ; Dilfy, S.H., Hanawi, M.J., Al-bideri, A.W., Jalil, A.T., Determination of chemical composition of cultivated mushrooms in Iraq with spectrophotometrically and high performance liquid chromatographic (2020) J Green Eng, 10, pp. 6200-6216; Fruchter, O., Yigla, M., Kramer, M.R., D-dimer as a prognostic biomarker for mortality in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease exacerbation (2015) Am J Med Sci, 349 (1), pp. 29-35; Guo, W., Li, M., Dong, Y., Diabetes is a risk factor for the progression and prognosis of COVID-19 (2020) Diabetes Metab Res Rev, , PMC free article; Hanan, Z.K., Saleh, M.B., Mezal, E.H., Jalil, A.T., Detection of human genetic variation in VAC14 gene by ARMA-PCR technique and relation with typhoid fever infection in patients with gallbladder diseases in Thi-Qar province/Iraq (2021) Mater Today Proc; Huang, C., Wang, Y., Li, X., Ren, L., Zhao, J., Clinical features of patients infected with 2019 novel coronavirus in Wuhan, China (2020) Lancet, 395, pp. 497-506. , COI: 1:CAS:528:DC%2BB3cXhs1Kqu7c%3D; Hundt, M.A., Deng, Y., Ciarleglio, M.M., Nathanson, M.H., Lim, J.K., Abnormal liver tests in COVID-19: a retrospective observational cohort study of 1,827 patients in a major U.S. hospital network (2020) Hepatology, 72, pp. 1169-1176. , COI: 1:CAS:528:DC%2BB3cXitFams7rP; Jalil, A.T., COVID-19 most affected age groups and lethality in Europe (2020) Glob J Public Health Med, 2, pp. 179-184; Jalil, A.T., Dilfy, S.H., Karevskiy, A., Najah, N., Viral hepatitis in Dhi-Qar province: demographics and hematological characteristics of patients.

Monthly air temperature and pan evaporation are used to build the predictive models. These models are used for evaluating the evaporation prediction for the Kiashahr meteorological station located in the north of Iran and Ranichauri station positioned in Uttarakhand State of India. Findings indicated that the deep learning model was found best at Kiashahr station for testing datasets MAE (0.5691, mm/month), RMSE (0.7111, mm/month), NSE (0.7496), and IOA (0.9413). It can be concluded that in the semi-arid climate of Iran both of the used methods had the good capability in modeling of monthly E pan. However, DL predicted monthly E pan better than GBM. Moreover, the highest accuracy of the deep learning model was also observed for the Ranichauri station in terms of MAE = 0.3693 mm/month, RMSE = 0.4357 mm/month, NSE = 0.8344, & IOA = 0.9507 in testing stage. Overall, results expose the superior performance of DL-based models for both study stations and can also be utilized for various other environmental modeling. © 2022 The Author(s).

The present study aimed to explore the bioindustry, mold screening protocol, and characterization of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) using a diverse filamentous Green mold (FiGM) isolated from spoiled citrus fruits. Eight filamentous Penicillium digitatum mold strains had been obtained and subjected to investigate the capability of ZnONPs biosynthesis by fungal extracellular free-cell filtrate. P. digitatum (P-digB3) obtained the peak of ZnONps (379 nm) detected by the UV-visible spectrophotometry and was found as a significantly optimum strain in the highest quantity (mean±SD: 0.0138±0.001 gm/100 ml) and the smallest average NPs size. The ZnONPs were characterized by UV-visible scanning spectrophotometry, Atomic Force Microscopy, X-RD, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). The final average size of ZnONPs was obtained at 65.46 nm with diversified shapes and dimensions. The present study concluded the high capabilities of fungi (FiGMs) as eco-friendly and cheap bio-nano factories to manufacture ZnONPs with great nano-level average size, which may consider new boost sources for use in many nano-sectors and applications. © 2022 by Razi Vaccine & Serum Research Institute.P. digitatum (Pdig-B3); SEM and TEM; Zincum gluconicum; ZnONPsunclassified drug; zinc derivative; zinc oxide nanoparticle; zincum gluconicum; Article; Aspergillus fumigatus; Aspergillus terreus; atomic force microscopy; biosynthesis; Candida albicans; controlled study; fungus isolation; image analysis; nanofabrication; nonhuman; particle size; Penicillium digitatum; phenotype; reduction (chemistry); scanning electron microscopy; transmission electron microscopy; ultraviolet visible spectrophotometry; X ray diffractionCM10, Philips, NetherlandsPhilips, Netherlands; Angistrom Advanced, United StatesThis study was carried out using personal support without any financial support from any university, academic, scientific, or commercial institution.Yusof, HM, Mohamad, R, Zaidan, UH., Microbial synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles and their potential application as an antimicrobial agent and a feed supplement in animal industry: A review (2019) J Anim Sci Biotechnol, 10 (1), pp. 1-22; Li, H, Yan, S, Deng, C, Dou, S, Ren, X, Synthesis and characterization of Ag nanoflowers with different morphologies (2021) IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, , editors.

However, the efficient extraction and effective selection of informative EEG features is crucial in assisting clinicians to diagnose epilepsy accurately. In this paper, a determinant of covariance matrix (Cov–Det) model is suggested for reducing EEG dimensionality. First, EEG signals are segmented into intervals using a sliding window technique. Then, Cov–Det is applied to each interval. To construct a features vector, a set of statistical features are extracted from each interval. To eliminate redundant features, the Kolmogorov–Smirnov (KST) and Mann–Whitney U (MWUT) tests are integrated, the extracted features ranked based on KST and MWUT metrics, and arithmetic operators are adopted to construe the most pertinent classified features for each pair in the EEG signal group. The selected features are then fed into the proposed AdaBoost Back-Propagation neural network (AB_BP_NN) to effectively classify EEG signals into seizure and free seizure segments. Finally, the AB_BP_NN is compared with several classical machine learning techniques; the results demonstrate that the proposed mode of AB_BP_NN provides insignificant false positive rates, simpler design, and robustness in classifying epileptic signals. Two datasets, the Bern–Barcelona and Bonn datasets, are used for performance evaluation. The proposed technique achieved an average accuracy of 100% and 98.86%, respectively, for the Bern–Barcelona and Bonn datasets, which is considered a noteworthy improvement compared to the current state-of-the-art methods. © 2021 by the authors.

In this regard, the current paper presents a roadmap to assess the temporal complementarity patterns between wind and solar resources for the first time in Iraq. A new approach based on re‐analyzed climate data, Landcover products, and geographical information system (GIS) is proposed. As such, renewable resource datasets are col-lected for 759 locations with a daily timescale over five years. Landcover classes are translated into wind shear coefficients (WSCs) to model wind velocity at turbine hub height. Then, the Pearson correlation coefficient (PCC) is applied to calculate the complementarity indices for each month of the year. Results of this investigation reveal that there are significant synergy patterns spanning more than six months in the southwestern regions and some eastern parts of Iraq. The highest com-plementarity is observed in March and December with a value of −0.70 and −0.63, respectively. De-spite this promising potential, no typical temporal complementarity has been discovered that would completely eliminate the fluctuations of clean power generation. However, the synergistic proper-ties yielded by this work could mitigate the reliance on storage systems, particularly as they cover important regions of the country. The proposed approach and tools can help improve the planning of renewable energy systems. © 2021 by the authors.

The production, processing, transport and storage phases of chillies are prone to infection by Aspergillus Section Flavi and contamination with aflatoxins (AFs), especially aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) for which legislative limits exist in many countries. We have examined the effect of the interacting abiotic factors of water availability (water activity, aw; 0.995-0.850 aw) and temperature (15-37 °C) on (a) lag phases prior to growth, (b) growth, (c) AFB1 production and (d) contour maps of optimum and boundary conditions for colonisation and toxin production by three Aspergillus flavus strains on a 10% chilli-based medium. Additional studies with whole red chillies + A. flavus conidial inoculum on AFB1 contamination during storage for 10-20 days at 30 °C were also carried out. In vitro, the lag phases before growth were delayed by lower temperatures (15, 20 °C) and aw levels (0.928-0.901 aw). There was no statistical difference in growth between the three strains. Optimal growth was at 37 °C and 0.982 aw with no growth at 0.85 aw. Optimal temperature × aw conditions for AFB1 production were at 30 °C and 0.982 aw with no statistical difference in production between strains. No AFB1 was produced at 15-20 °C at 0.901 and 0.928 aw levels, respectively. In situ studies with A. flavus inoculated whole red chillies at 0.90 and 0.95 aw found that this species became the major component of the total fungal populations at 30 °C after 10-20 days storage. AFB1 contamination was above the European legislative limits (5 μg/kg) for spices at 0.90 aw after 20 days storage and at 0.95 aw after 10 and 20 days. This suggests that storage conditions of ≥0.90 aw, especially at ≥25-30 °C represents a significant risk of contamination with AFB1 at levels where rejection might occur, even after only 10-20 days storage. © 2021 Wageningen Academic Publishers.ecology; growth; mycotoxin production; red chilli powder; temperature; water availability; whole red chilliesaflatoxin B1; chloramphenicol; glycerol; abiotic stress; absorption lag time; Article; Aspergillus flavus; chemical interaction; comparative study; contamination; fungal colonization; fungal strain; fungus growth; high performance liquid chromatography; in vitro study; limit of detection; limit of quantitation; measurement accuracy; nonhuman; particle size; pepper; powder; temperature; water availabilityaflatoxin B1, 1162-65-8; chloramphenicol, 134-90-7, 2787-09-9, 56-75-7; glycerol, 56-81-5Abdel-Hadi, A., Schmidt-Heydt, M., Parra, R., Geisen, R., Magan, N., A systems approach to model the relationship between aflatoxin gene cluster expression, environmental factors, growth and toxin production by Aspergillus flavus (2012) Journal of the Royal Society, Interface, 9, pp. 757-767; Al-Jaza, D., (2020) Mycotoxins in chillies: diversity of mycotoxigenic fungi, ecology and control strategies using food grade preservatives and gaseous ozone (O3), , PhD-thesis, Cranfield Soil and AgriFood Institute, Cranfield University, Cranfield, UK; Baazeem, A., Garcia-Cela, E., Medina, A., Magan, N., Interacting abiotic factors affect growth and aflatoxin B1 production profiles of strains of Aspergillus flavus on pistachio-based matrices and stored pistachio nuts (2021) Frontiers in Microbiology, 11, p. 624007. , https://doi.org/10.3389/fmicb.2020.624007; Bernaldez, V., Cordoba, J.J., Magan, N., Peromingo, B., Rodriguez, A., The influence of ecophysiological factors on growth, afIR gene expression and aflatoxin B1 production by a type strain of Aspergillus flavus (2017) Journal of Food Science and Technology, 83, pp. 283-291; Bhatnagar, D., Rajasekaran, K., Gilbert, M., Cary, J.W., Magan, N., Research advances to safeguard food and feed supply from aflatoxin contamination (2018) World Mycotoxin Journal, 11, pp. 47-72; Bircan, C., The determination of aflatoxins in spices by immunoaffinity column extraction 531 using HPLC (2005) International Journal of Food Science and Technology, 40, pp. 929-934; Chuaysrinule, C., Maneeboon, T., Roopkham, C., Mahakarnchanaku, W., Occurrence of aflatoxin- and ochratoxin A-producing Aspergillus species in Thai dried chilli (2020) Journal of Agriculture and Food Research, 2, p. 100054. , https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jafr.2020.100054; Costa, J., Rodriguez, R., Garcia-Cela, E., Medina, A., Magan, N., Lima, N., Battilani, P., Santos, C., Overview of fungal and mycotoxin contamination in Capsicum pepper and in its derivatives (2019) Toxins, 11, p. 27; Dallyn, H., Fox, A., Spoilage of material of reduced water activity by xerophilic fungi (1980) Society of applied bacteriology technical series, pp. 129-139. , Gould, G. and Corry, E.

However, the evaporation of water from these ponds is a significant problem that must be overcome for them to be deployed successfully. Thus, two ponds were constructed in the city of Nasiriya, Iraq. The two ponds were cylindrical with a diameter of 1.4 m and a total depth of 1.4 m. The water body in the two ponds was constructed with layer depths of 0.5, 0.75 and 0.1 m for the lower convective zone (LCZ), non-convective zone (NCZ) and the upper convective zone (UCZ) respectively. One of the two ponds was covered with a thin liquid paraffin layer (0.5 cm) to eliminate evaporation from the surface of the UCZ. The behavior of the standard SGSP and that of the covered pond with evaporation suppressed can be straightforwardly compared. The experimental units were run for six months from 1st of February to 31st of July 2019. It was shown in the first instance that by covering the pond with a thin layer of paraffin, that evaporation could be suppressed. The results showed that for the conventional SGSP, the temperature of the LCZ reached a maximum of ca. 76◦C while in the covered pond the temperature of the LCZ was consistently lower than that in the uncovered pond by approximately 5–6◦C. The results also indicated that the temperature of the UCZ in the covered pond was higher than that in the uncovered pond by about 10◦C in the second half of the study period. However, it was noted that on rainy days the paraffin layer was swept away from the surface; and this could hinder the implementation of thin liquid cover in the large SGSP. © 2022, Tech Science Press.

Our design includes a metal film incorporated within the PCF structure. Compared to previously discussed sensing configurations, the metal surface does not come in direct contact with the sample being tested in our design. The metal film serves to provide absorption due to the excitation of surface plasmon-polaritons (SPP). This absorption is enhanced when a PCF-guided mode resonantly couples to the SPP, or in other words when phase matching between the mode and the SPP is satisfied. We consider a configuration where a hollow PCF core is filled with a liquid sample, while the metal surfaces are kept tens of microns away within the PCF cladding. Our sensor detects small changes in the sample's refractive index, over a broad wavelength range, by taking advantage of the refractive index sensitivity of the resonance/phase-matching condition. We model the sensor and characterize its performance by using the COMSOL environment based on the finite element method. We evaluate and compare three elements: gold, silver, and copper, in order to increase the absorption at particular wavelengths. We also vary the thickness of the metal layer and optimize it to enhance the sensitivity. The results show a performance that exceeds a minimal sensor resolution over an ultra-broad spectral range while maintaining a reasonable amplitude sensitivity. © 2021 Elsevier GmbHNoble metals; Plasmonic PCF sensor; SensitivityCrystal whiskers; Electromagnetic wave polarization; Metallic films; Metals; Nonlinear optics; Phase matching; Refractive index; Spectroscopy; Surface plasmon resonance; Metal surfaces; Metal-films; Novel design; Performance; Photonic crystal fiber sensors; Plasmonic photonic crystal fiber sensor; Plasmonic-photonic crystals; Sensitivity; Spectral sensitivity; Photonic crystal fibersWe are deeply grateful to Dr. Alexei V.

Up to date writing this paper, nobody has used this type of extracted lignin as PVC photo-stabilizer. Therefor this significant application was exhibited in this study by utilizing lignin as eco-friendly photo-stabilizer of PVC. Many approaches have been applied to test the efficiency of it as natural additive of PVC. Infrared spectra shows the growing of two specific bands during irradiation belong to carbonyl (C[dbnd]O) and alkene (C[dbnd]C) groups due to the photo-degradation. It was demonstrated that using lignin inhibits the formation of these two peaks substantially and stabilize the polymer. Various other experiments were done such as weight loss percentage, average molecular weight and surface study by AFM and SEM. All the results were in agreements and proved that lignin could be used as an excellent photo-stabilizer of PVC. Moreover it was demonstrated that increasing the concentration of lignin from 0.5% to 1% per polymer weight has increase the stability of PVC. It was also suggested the mechanism of stability hence lignin is highly aromatic and has a lot of phenolic hydroxyl groups which make it a very good UV-blocker and excellent free radical scavenger. © 2021Carbonyl indices; Lignin; Photo-degradation; PVC; StabilizersWe would like to thank Al-Nahrain University for their support.Alejandro, J., Juan, P.-G., Carlos, C.-S.-T., Alzate, A.C., The potential use of lignin as a platform product in biorefineries: a review (2021) Renew.

We demonstrated that all of the new suggested complexes have a lower energy gap than oxaliplatinum, and that they are also more energetic than oxaliplatin because of their high molecular polarizability. The indicated oxaliplatinum complexes (O1, O2, and O3) have a lower global hardness than oxaliplatinum, meaning that they are more soft complexes in this paper and therefore active complexes to interact with other molecules or species, according to the quantum chemical parameters calculations. The potential of a complex to interact with an enzyme increases as the EHOMO of the complex increases and the ELUMO of the complex decreases. © 2021Energy gap and enzymes; Oxaliplatinum; Quantum chemical parametersStănilă, A., Braicu, C., Stănilă, S., Antibacterial activity of copper and cobalt amino acids complexes (2011) Not.

The single fermion is predicted to be in one of three single-particle orbits: 2d5/2, 2d3/2, and 3s1/2. The Interacting Boson Model (IBM-1) was used to investigate the energy levels, electric quadrupole transition probabilities, and potential energy surface of even-even Barium isotopes (a core for even-odd nuclei). The measured positive parity low-state energy spectra and predicted energy levels, as well as the B(E2) transition probabilities, are reasonably consistent with the experimental data and previous research for Ba isotopes. The potential energy surface contour plot reveals that all interesting nuclei are deformed and have γ-unstable-like properties. © 2021 Elsevier B.V.Electromagnetic transition; Energy level; IBFM; IBM; Potential energy surfaceUniversity of DaytonWe thank Department of Physics, College of Science, University of Thi-Qar for supporting this work.

In this respect, an innovative smart energy system based on hybrid solar-geothermal energies is proposed in this work, and transient performance assessment and techno-economic analysis are presented to evaluate its dynamic performance applying TRNSYS software. The proposed system is developed to provide power, heating, and cooling demands for a small urban community as the case study. The system consists of PVT panels, thermal energy storage tanks, a turbine, an absorption chiller, and a heat pump as the main components. Also, other subsidiary components like controllers and diverters are incorporated to guarantee the proposed system performance in a smart manner in various ambient conditions of the year. The results show that the system not only provides the annual electrical demand for the considered case study but also a considerable amount of excess power is produced, which can be sold to the power grid to compensate for some expenses of the system. The highest and the lowest exergy efficiency for the proposed system is attained in July and December with the values of 55.9% and 22.8%, respectively. Also, the highest and the lowest values of system unit product cost are obtained for January and July, respectively, as 8.38 and 32.77 $/GJ. © 2021Distributed generation; hybrid solar-geothermal energies;

This study aims to experimentally investigate the effectiveness of EBROG as compared to the conventional externally bonded reinforcement (EBR) method in strengthening reinforced concrete (RC) beams. Twelve RC beams have been tested under four point load bending. One of these beams has been designated as a reference beam, seven beams have been strengthened with carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets, and four beams have been strengthened with CFRP laminates using EBROG or EBR methods. The effect of CFRP type, number of layers, as well as the type of strengthening methods on the flexural performance have been also investigated. The load, deflection, stiffness, and failure modes were recorded and discussed intensively. Overall, test results indicated that the flexural strength and stiffness of the strengthened specimens using EBR or EBROG methods increased compared to the control beam, where the increase in the load carrying capacity of beams strengthened using the EBR method ranged between 24.8 and 48.2% and by the EBROG method ranged between 31.7 and 76.7% of the control beam. The most interesting result obtained is that the failure mode of beams has been changed from debonding of CFRP material to rupture of CFRP in some samples strengthened by EBROG, which demonstrates the superior behavior of this strengthening technique as compared to the traditional strengthening using EBR. © The Author(s) 2021.carbon fiber reinforced polymer; grooving method (EBROG); reinforced concrete beam; rupture; strengtheningConcrete beams and girders; Debonding; Failure modes; Reinforced concrete; Stiffness; Bonded reinforcement; Carbon fibre reinforced polymer; Externally bonded; Grooving method (externally bonded reinforcement on groove); Reinforced concrete beams; Reinforcement method; Rupture; Strengthening; Strengthening methods; Strengthening technique; Carbon fiber reinforced plasticsThe experimental work of this study was carried out at the Structural Engineering Laboratory of Civil Engineering Department in University of Thi-Qar.

Sieve maximum likelihood estimation method is used to obtain an integrated estimate for both the parametric components and nonparametric components in the model, i.e. the linear regression coefficients, the varying-coefficient functions and the baseline survival function. Under some regularity conditions, the proposed parameter estimators are proved to be semiparametrically efficient and asymptotically normal, and the estimators for the nonparametric functions achieve the optimal rate of convergence. Simulation studies assure the theoretical results, and a real data is reanalysed using the proposed method and it yields new findings. © 2021 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.B-splines; current status data; efficient estimation; linear transformation model; varying coefficientNatural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada, NSERCLu's research is partially supported by a Discovery Grant (RG/PIN06466-2018) from NSERC.

For ionic liquids, there are several advantages over conventionally using organic membrane solvents, including high thermal stability, negligible vapour pressure, low volatility, etc. Here in this study, we have analyzed the abilities of ionic liquids as pure solvents as well as their binary mixtures, to recover phenolic compounds from the industrial wastewater. The field of phenol extraction from wastewater using ionic liquids remains less exposed, and we presume that the work of this kind would open up more and more opportunities for the scientific community as well as industrial people. Based on all these assumptions, the present work includes experimental data of a work which explains the possibilities of room temperature ionic liquids (RTILs) as potential bulk liquid membranes (BLM) for extracting phenol and other phenolic compounds from the industrial affluents. Four high hydrophobicity ionic liquids namely: 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate [Hmim][PF6], 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl) imide [Bmim][NTf2], 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate [Bmim] [PF6] and 1-ethyl-3-methyimidazolium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl) imide [Emim][NTf2] were used for investigating the Phenol extraction efficiency and stripping efficiency. To provide a best comprehension of the influence of the phenolic structure as well as the nature of cation on the extraction ability of the ILs, we tried to understand the molecular interactions between the phenolic compounds and the solvents. The influence of hydrophobicity of ionic liquids and different kinds of anions on the extraction of phenol and efficiencies of stripping were investigated. All the experimental investigations performed here indicated that the only cation part of the ionic liquid is not an important aspect directly in this extraction, but the hydrogen bonding and the solute-solvent interactions play a significant role in the phenol removal process from aqueous phase to IL phase. First, the optimal conditions of operating (settling time and stirring) were analyzed for the clarity of the experiments performed. Concentration of NaOH in enhancing the performance of ionic liquids was also inspected here in this study. A binary mixture of ionic liquids (BMILs) membrane was examined for the optimized parameters, and the efficiency of phenol extraction was analyzed with the efficiency obtained for the single ionic liquid (SIL) membranes. The phenol concentration was determined by UV/visible spectrophotometer absorbance measurements. The highest phenol extraction efficiencies of 91% and 98.5%, were achieved by using [Bmim][NTf2] and [Bmim][NTf2+PF6] respectively, and the higher stripping efficiencies came up with 79% and 84% respectively, for [Emim][NTf2] and [Bmim + Emim][NTf2]. The results show that the binary mixture ionic liquid (BMIL) membrane is a better choice than single ionic liquid (SIL) membrane solvents. Hence, [Bmim] [(NTf2+PF6)] is an excellent selection as it provides high phenol stripping and extraction efficiencies with a minimal solvent loss and better stability in transport process. © 2020 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.extraction efficiency; ionic liquid; Liquid membrane; phenol; stripping efficiencyBinary mixtures; Chemical industry; Chemicals removal (water treatment); Efficiency; Hydrogen bonds; Hydrophobicity; Ionic liquids; Liquid membranes; Negative ions; Phenols; Positive ions; Sodium hydroxide; Solvents; 1-Butyl-3-methyl-imidazolium hexafluorophosphate; 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate; Absorbance measurements; Bis(trifluoromethane sulfonyl)imide; Experimental investigations; Extraction efficiencies; Room temperature ionic liquids; Solute-solvent interaction; Extraction; 1 butyl 3 methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide; 1 butyl 3 methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate; 1 ethyl 3 methyimidazolium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide; 1 hexyl 3 methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate; cation; ionic liquid; phenol; phenol derivative; sodium hydroxide; solvent; unclassified drug; extraction method; industrial waste; ionic liquid; membrane; phenolic compound; wastewater treatment; Article; bulk ionic liquid membrane technique; chemical parameters; concentration (parameter); controlled study; experimental study; extraction; hydrogen bond; hydrophobicity; industrial waste; ionic liquid membrane; liquid membrane; membrane; molecular interaction; performance; pH; physical parameters; pollutant; room temperature; settling time; solute solvent interaction; stirring; ultraviolet spectroscopy; wastewater; chemistry; human; wastewater; Environmental Pollutants; Humans; Ionic Liquids; Phenol; Solvents; Waste Waterphenol, 108-95-2, 3229-70-7; sodium hydroxide, 1310-73-2; Environmental Pollutants; Ionic Liquids; Phenol; Solvents; Waste WaterCouncil of Scientific and Industrial Research, India, CSIR; Indian Institute of Technology Madras, IITMThe authors are grateful to Basma Mohammed Kadhim from Thi Qar Oil Company, Ministry of Oil, Thi Qar, Iraq for patient helps during this study.

The least square method is used as an error minimization technique for fitting the non-linear transcendental model equation of the solar panel to the measured I–V characteristics. Newton Raphson method is applied to solve the system of five non-linear equations which represent the error of each parameter. Initial guess values are calculated with an optimised algorithm depending on information extracted from the same measured data. MATLAB programming script was used in all implementation steps. This approach is useful for a wide variety of applications where the five SDM parameters have to be determined from the measured curves, particularly, for self-fabricated cells/modules or in case of no available datasheet. One of the strengths of this method is the higher level of accuracy because of the absence of mathematical simplifications and physical assumptions. The method was validated on different types of PV devices, including a crystalline silicon cell, a polycrystalline module, and an amorphous module by using measurement data obtained at a wide range of solar irradiance conditions and temperatures. © 2020 The AuthorsCurve fitting; I–V characteristics; Numerical method; Parameters extraction; Single diode model; Solar cellAmorphous silicon; Least squares approximations; MATLAB; Newton-Raphson method; Photoelectrochemical cells; Photovoltaic cells; Crystalline silicon cells; Error minimization; Implementation steps; Least square methods; Parameters extraction; Physical assumptions; Poly-crystalline modules; Series and shunt resistances; Solar cellsBME IE-NAT TKP2020, EFOP-3.6.1-16-2016-00014, NKFIH-849-8/2019; Nemzeti Kutatási Fejlesztési és Innovációs Hivatal, NKFIHThe research reported in this paper was supported by the BME Nanotechnology and Materials Science TKP2020 IE grant of NKFIH Hungary (BME IE-NAT TKP2020), by the Stipendium Hungaricum Scholarship Programme, the grant EFOP-3.6.1-16-2016-00014 and by the Science Excellence Program at BME under the grant agreement NKFIH-849-8/2019 of the Hungarian National Research, Development and Innovation Office.Akbaba, M., Performance analysis of solar cell arrays loaded with passive loads (1995) Applied Energy, 52 (2-3), pp. 209-218; (2018), pp. 17-29. , Ali Kareem Abdulrazzaq.

In this study the density of ethyle methyl imidazolium tetrafluoro borate ionicliquids ([EMIM][BF4]) measured experimentally. In addition, the density (?) and the specific heat capacity (Cp) of the ionanofluid (INF) were calculated theoretically. The studied INF composed of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) dispersed in the ionicliquid (IL) [EMIM][BF4] in the concentrations (0.5%, 1%, 3%, 5%, 7% and 9%). Scanning electron microscopy and differential scanning calorimetry measured for the used MWCNTs. The density and the specific heat capacity of pure [EMIM][BF4] and its INFs were plotted versus temperature in a graphs. The results show that the density of [EMIM][BF4] and its INFs decreased linearly with temperature. The density increased by 0.243%-3.968% for 0.5%-9% MWCNTs concentration in INFs, reaching maximum value of 1.329 g.cm-3 at 20 oC. In contrast the specific heat capacity of [EMIM][BF4] and its INFs increased linearly with temperature with an enhancement of about 0.417%-7.99% for 0.5%-9% concentration of MWCNTs reaching maximum value of 1.812 J/g.K at 358.15K with 9%MWCNT concentration. That’s mean the addition of MWCNT cause increasing both of the density and the specific heat capacity of INF. © 2021 Institute of Physics Publishing.

The modified moment features were used in accelerating the matching step of the Iterated Function System (IFS). The main disadvantage facing the fractal image compression (FIC) method is the over-long encoding time needed for checking all domain blocks and choosing the least error to get the best matched domain for each block of ranges. In this paper, we develop a method that can reduce the encoding time of FIC by reducing the size of the domain pool based on the moment features of domain blocks, followed by a comparison with threshold (the selected threshold based on experience is 0.0001). The experiment was conducted on three images with size of 512x512 pixel, resolution of 8 bits/pixel, and different block size (4x4, 8x8 and, 16x16 pixels). The resulted encoding time (ET) values achieved by the proposed method were 41.53, 39.06, and 38.16 sec, respectively, for boat, butterfly, and house images of block size 4x4 pixel. These values were compared with those obtained by the traditional algorithm for the same images with the same block size, which were 1073.85, 1102.66, and 1084.92 sec, respectively. The results imply that the proposed algorithm could remarkably reduce the ET of the images in comparison with the traditional algorithm. © 2021 University of Baghdad-College of Science.

This technique is the amal-gamation of Sumudu transform method and the homotopy analysis method. Three examples are considered to validate and demonstrate the efficacy and accuracy of the present technique. It is also demonstrated that the results obtained from the suggested technique are in excellent agree-ment with the exact solution which shows that the proposed method is efficient, reliable and easy to implement for various related problems of science and engineering. © Jassim H.K., Ahmad H., Shamaoon A., Cesarano C., 2021.Fractional differential equation; Homotopy analysis method; Sumudu transformAhmad, I., Ahmad, H., Abouelregal, A.E., Thounthong, P., Abdel-Atay, M., Numerical study of integer-order hyperbolic telegraph model arising in physical and related sciences (2020) Eur.

Many metric learning algorithms learn a global distance function from data that satisfies the constraints of the problem. However, in many real-world datasets, where the discrimination power of features varies in the different regions of input space, a global metric is often unable to capture the complexity of the task. To address this challenge, local metric learning methods are proposed which learn multiple metrics across the different regions of the input space. Some advantages of these methods include high flexibility and learning a nonlinear mapping, but they typically achieve at the expense of higher time requirements and overfitting problems. To overcome these challenges, this research presents an online multiple metric learning framework. Each metric in the proposed framework is composed of a global and a local component learned simultaneously. Adding a global component to a local metric efficiently reduces the problem of overfitting. The proposed framework is also scalable with both sample size and the dimension of input data. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first local online similarity/distance learning framework based on Passive/Aggressive (PA). In addition, for scalability with the dimension of input data, Dual Random Projection (DRP) is extended for local online learning in the present work. It enables our methods to run efficiently on high-dimensional datasets while maintaining their predictive performance. The proposed framework provides a straightforward local extension to any global online similarity/distance learning algorithm based on PA. Experimental results on some challenging datasets from machine vision community confirm that the extended methods considerably enhance the performance of the related global ones without increasing the time complexity. © 2021 World Scientific Publishing Company.dual random projection; local learning; Metric learning; online learning; passive/aggressiveData mining; E-learning; Input output programs; Machine learning; Pattern recognition; Distance-learning; Dual random projection; Learn+; Learning frameworks; Local learning; Metric learning; Online learning; Passive/aggressive; Random projections; Similarity distance; Learning algorithmsAl-Obaidi, S.

Samples were collected from four stations in the Al-Gharraf River in southern Iraq during 2018-2019. A seasonal variation was observed in the concentrations of alkanes, which is the highest in the winter. The total alkanes concentrations were the lowest at 0.079 μg/g at station 1 in summer. The highest total concentration of alkanes was in station 3 in winter reaching 2.215 μg/g. There was a dominance of individual carbon compounds of C17, C19, and C21 indicating the source of hydrocarbon from phytoplankton, plant, and bacteria. The presences of carbon compounds higher than C25 reveals that organic matter is derived from land and aquatic plants. The results also indicate that the source of petroleum hydrocarbons in the sediments of the Al-Garraf River is a common biogenic and anthropogenic based CPI index and the pri/phy guide that was less than 1 in the second and third stations for all seasons, and greater than 1 in the first and fourth stations. © 2021 Iranian Society of Ichthyology.Anthropogenic; Biogenic; Gas chromatography; PetroleumAl-Marah, F.G., Hantoush, A.M., Nasir, A.M., Al-Yaseri, S.T., Seasonal variations of the total petroleum hydrocarbons in water and sediments of southern Iraqi Marshland after Rehabilitation 2003 (2006) Marsh Bulletin, 1 (1), pp. 1-8; Al-Saad, H.T., Al-Timari, A.K., Source of hydrocarbons and fatty acids in sediments of Hor Al-Hammar, Shatt Al-Arab and North Arabian Gulf (1993) Marine Pollution Bulletin, 26, pp. 559-564; Albaiges, J., (1989) Marine Pollution, p. 365. , Hemisphere Publishing New York; AL-Ghazi, H.S., (2004) Hydrology of Shatt al-Gharraf and its investments, p. 184. , Master's Thesis, College of Education-University of Basra; Al-Hamdi, M.M., (1989) Hydrocarbon sources and vertical, distribution in sediment from Khor Al-Zubair, p. 131. , N.W.

One of the most common kinds of geosynthetic fabric utilized for soil reinforcement is geotextiles. This article investigates woven geotextile's potential benefits in enhancing the maximum loadcarrying capacity of footings resting upon silty sand soil. The foundation was constructed of a 10 mm thick strong carbon steel plate of 100 mm×100 mm. The factors examined in this research were the first geotextile layer's depth, the geotextile layer's width, the number of layers of reinforcing material, and the vertical spacing between geotextile layers. The impact of geotextile strengthening configurations on the loadcarrying capacity of strengthened soil foundations was also studied. The results of the experiments indicated that geotextile reinforced soil could help to grow the soil bearing capacity. The testing findings revealed that the system with three geotextile layers, 0.25B vertical distance among geotextile layers, and a geotextile width of 5B, B denotes the plate's width, achieves the most significant bearing capacity. The test findings also revealed that the reinforcement configuration greatly impacted the reinforced silty sand on the foundation's behavior © 2021,Mathematical Modelling of Engineering Problems.All Rights ReservedBearing capacity;

The great evolution of advanced wireless sensor networks has played a role in protecting wildlife. Recently wireless sensor networks are used to track animals in their habitat to follow the behaviour and lives of some endangered animals, but monitoring still difficult issues because may reason inside WSN: energy and deployment. Problems will appear another side the nature of wildlife: the size of animals will limit the technology that will use. When studying the types of networks the WSN will be the best solution to this case. In this paper WSN used to track the small type of birds calls “partridge” to protect birds and monitoring its behaviours. The proposed algorithm in this paper provide a new way to track and control a group of birds in their natural dwellings by using a hybrid wireless sensor network consist of set of predefined reference nodes, where sensitive information is sent to the base station through these beacon nodes, then resolve it and use it to the sacrificial location of the animals. This method is evaluated using Network Simulator (NS2). This method was inexpensive, easy, accurate, low energy consumption, and acceptance when compared with the modern method of wildlife tracking. © School of Engineering, Taylor’s UniversityGPS; Localization algorithms; Positioning algorithms; Wildlife tracking; WSNsPule, M., Yahya, A., Chuma, J., Wireless sensor networks: A survey on monitoring water quality (2017) Journal of Applied Research and Technology, 15 (6), pp. 562-570; Sasikumar, G., Ramamoorthy, H.V., Mohamed, S.N., An analysis on animal tracking system using wireless sensors (2014) International Journal of Advanced Research in Computer Science and Software Engineering, 4 (9), pp. 155-162; Singh, J., Bais, B., Wildlife tracking with latest electronic technology (2018) International Journal of Avian & Wildlife Biology, 3 (3), pp. 238-240; Gui, L., Val, T., Wei, A., Dalce, R., Improvement of range-free localization technology by a novel DV-hop protocol in wireless sensor networks (2015) Ad Hoc Networks, 24, pp. 55-73. , (Part B); Cheng, J., Xia, L., An effective cuckoo search algorithm for node localization in wireless sensor network (2016) Sensors, 16 (1390), pp. 1-17; Hussain, R.H., Jabr, Z.F., Saleh, Sh.R., Improved localization algorithm for wireless sensor networks by using xbee (2019) Journal of Engineering Science and Technology, 14 (6), pp. 3470-3480; Oguejiofor, O.S., Aniedu, A.N., Ejiofor, H.C., kolibe, A.U., Trilateration based localization algorithm for wireless sensor network (2013) International Journal of Science and Modern Engineering, 1 (10), pp. 21-27; Alhmiedat, T.A., Yang, H.S.-H., A zigbee-based mobile tracking system through wireless sensor networks (2008) International Journal of Advanced Mechatronic Systems, 1 (1), pp. 63-70; Zhou, L., Ma, S., Improved hybrid localization algorithm of maximum likelihood and centroid localization based on RSSI (2017) 2017 4th International Conference on Information Science and Control Engineering, pp. 385-389. , Changsha, China; Tian, S., Zhang, X., Liu, P., Sun, P., Wang, X., A RSSI-based on DV-Hop algorithm for wireless sensor networks (2017) 2007 International Conference on Wireless Communications, Networking and Mobile Computing, pp. 1-6. , Shanghai, China; Ghazali, M.A., Othman, K.A., Isa, M.A.H.M, Baharuddin, M.A., Wireless sensor development for Malaysian forest monitoring and tracking system (2017) 21st International Computer Science and Engineering Conference, pp. 78-82. , Published in: Bangkok, Thailand; Cochran, W.W., Lord, R.D., A radio-tracking system for wild animals (2004) Journal of Wildlife Management, 27 (1), pp. 9-24; Maung, N.A.M., Kawai, M., Wireless sensor network based mobile tracking system (2016) International Journal of Computer and Communication Engineering, 5 (1), pp. 31-40; Juang, P., Oki, H., Wang, Y., Martonosi, M., Peh, L.-S., Rubenstein, D., Energy efficient computing for wildlife tracking: design tradeoffs and early experiences with ZebraNet (2002) ACM SIGPLAN Notices, 37 (10), pp. 96-107; Sommer, P., Kusy, B., Valencia, P., Dungavel, R., Jurdak, R., Delay-tolerant networking for long-term animal tracking, , (in press). arXiv.org cs arXiv:1506.01792; Bibby, C., Burgess, N., Hill, D., Mustoe, S., (2000) Bird census techniques, , (2nd Ed).

The debonding between CFRP and the surface of the beam is the main problem. Many researchers around the world have made extensive efforts to study the phenomenon of debonding for efficient applications. Based on these efforts and different related field applications, code previsions and various models have been proposed for predicting debonding failure. Two code previsions and three typical models are presented in the current study. ACI-440.2R 17, CNR-DT 200 R1/2013, Said and Wu, Lu et al., and Teng et al. have been used to estimate the flexural strength of RC beams strengthened by CFRP with and without grooves. Test results of eleven flexural beams strengthened by CFRP sheet/laminate using externally bonded reinforcement (EBR) and externally bonded reinforcement on grooves (EBROG) methods were used in the current paper. The performance and accuracy of each model were evaluated based on these test results. Most of the prediction models that used in this study give a closer prediction of the flexural strength of beams strengthened by EBR compared to that of the beams strengthened by EBROG. Finally, the prediction results of CNR-DT 200 R1/2013 were the most accurate and approval with test results compared with other models in the current study © 2021 Riyam J.

The geometry consists of a half-cylinder containing paraffin with a uniform constant temperature and an insulating wall. Also, Darcy model and buoyant force due to density changes are considered in this simulation. The effects of the presence of aluminum foam with porosity ε=0.8,and0.95 and difference temperature ΔT=5,10,and15 have been studied on the melting fraction of PCM, temperature and streamlines contours and heat flux of cylinder's surface. The observations show that enhancement of porosity 0.8 to 0.9 increases the volume of PCM 11.7%, and reduces time of melting process 30.8% for ΔT=15. Moreover, increment of ΔT=5to15 leads to decrease time of melting process 71.8% when porosity is 0.95. © 2021 The AuthorsBuoyant force; Computational fluid dynamic; Darcy model; Local thermal non-equilibrium porous media; Phase change materialBuoyancy; Computational fluid dynamics; Cylinders (shapes); Flow of fluids; Heat flux; Melting; Paraffins; Porosity; Porous materials; Buoyant forces; CFD simulations; Constant temperature; Darcy model; Half-cylinders; Local thermal non-equilibrium; Local thermal non-equilibrium porous medium; Melting process; Porous medium; Thermal non-equilibrium; Phase change materialsDeanship of Scientific Research, King Faisal University, DSR, KFU: R.G.P.2/72/42; Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, UTM: R.J130000.7113.00P12The authors extend their appreciation to the Deanship of Scientific Research at King Khalid University for funding this work through research groups under grant number R.G.P.2/72/42.

Also, an oblique magnetic field (MHD) has been implemented to improve and control the flow. The unstructured triangular mesh and FVM with SIMPLE algorithm have been employed for discretization and coupling of pressure and velocity equations. In this simulation, the parameters of Hartmann, Rayleigh numbers and volume fraction of nanoparticles have been investigated on temperature contours, flow pattern, and hot wall Nusselt number. The observations show that, increasing the volume fraction increases the Nusselt number at low Rayleigh numbers. Moreover, the Nusselt number is inversely related to the Hartmann number for high Rayleigh numbers. © 2021CFD; Cold semi-annulus; Hot block; MHD; Natural convectionAlumina; Aluminum oxide; Computational fluid dynamics; Flow patterns; Magnetohydrodynamics; Nanofluidics; Nusselt number; Volume fraction; 'current; Cold semi-annulus; Discretizations; Hot block; Nanofluids; Natural convetion; Oblique magnetic fields; Rayleigh number; SIMPLE algorithm; Unstructured triangular meshes; Natural convectionUniversiti Malaya, UM: GPF054A-2020; Deanship of Scientific Research, King Faisal University, DSR, KFU: RGP.1/260/42The authors extend their appreciation to the Deanship of Scientific Research at King Khalid University for funding this work through research groups under grant number RGP.1/260/42 and by Universiti Malaya under grant No. GPF054A-2020 .Golab, E., Goudarzi, S., Kazemi-Varnamkhasti, H., Amigh, H., Ghaemi, F., Baleanu, D., Karimipour, A., Investigation of the effect of adding nano-encapsulated phase change material to water in natural convection inside a rectangular cavity (2021) J.

The continuity-current equation is coupling with the density matrix equations, which are solved numerically to obtain the quantum efficiency. This modeling will calculate the momentum matrix elements of transitions, consider the orthogonalized plane wave for wetting layer- quantum dot transitions, and covers more characteristics than the rate equations by considering all the possible interactions between the states. The results simulate both the excitonic and nonexcitonic (electron-hole) cases. The work emphasizes adding the double quantum dot layer, which gives flexibility in choosing the energy difference between states controlling the recombination rates. The work refers to the importance of orthogonalized plane-wave in solar cell work. In both models, the band-band recombination is high for slight energy differences between the states, confirms the importance of the double quantum dot system to manipulate transitions between states and obtain higher rates. For the electron-hole model, the leakage is high due to the fast recombination of holes. The discrimination between occupations of states is increasing under the excitonic model due to growing hole occupation. In both models, reducing the quantum dot - quantum dot recombinations and increasing all other recombinations will increase the quantum efficiency. The high quantum dot band-to-band rate increases the quantum efficiency. In the excitonic model, lower rates than in the electron-hole model are enough for high quantum efficiency. © 2021 IOP Publishing Ltd.band-to-band; double quantum dot solar cell; electron-hole model; excitonic model; quantum efficiency; recombination rateElastic waves; Electrons; Matrix algebra; Nanocrystals; Quantum efficiency; Solar cells; Wave propagation; Band-to-band; Double quantum dot solar cell; Double quantum dots; Electron-hole model; Energy differences; Excitonic model; Excitonics; Plane wave; Quantum dot solar cells; Recombination rate; Semiconductor quantum dotsCappellutin, F, Gioannini, M, Khalili, A, (2016) Solar Energy Materials & Solar Cells, 157, pp. 209-220; Gioannini, M, Cedola, A P, (2013) IEEE J.

Hence, the target of the current research is to specify the exergetic and economic aspects of an innovative electricity and cooling cogeneration system comprising a dual-flash binary geothermal power plant and an ejector refrigeration unit. The essential point of this study is the smart use of the total capacity of a medium-temperature geothermal source to produce energy-based products and eliminate the weakness of the conventional setups, increasing the exergy and exergoeconomic performances. A parametric study has been implemented to analyze the effect of several main parameters on the vital variables including efficiencies, exergy destruction rate, sum unit exergy cost, investment cost rate, and exergoeconomic factor. Besides, a multi-objective optimization in different cases has been applied to the calculations through a non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm II (NSGA-II) to achieve an optimal design. The results showed that the performance of the system was more sensitive to changing the separators’ operating pressure of the plant. Likewise, the optimum exergy efficiency and optimum unit exergy cost of the system were found to be 12% and 0.0043 $/kWh through the exergy/cost multi-objective optimization case, correspondingly. © 2021 Elsevier LtdCogeneration;

Indeed, the whole system has been devised regarding the multi-heat recovery technique and smart management of products through a structural modification. To emphasize the ability of the newly designed system in this work, the data of the Sabalan geothermal plant in Iran has been used as a case study. Subsequently, the feasibility of the proposed multigeneration system has been examined by the modified specific exergy costing (M-SPECO) method, characterizing the exergetic and cost aspects of the system. The M-SPECO method is recognized as an energy level-based cost scrutiny technique to evaluate energy conversion systems. Accordingly, the sensitivity study through single and dual parametric analyses has been implemented, wherein separator 1 pressure was the main parameter. Likewise, the non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm-II (NSGA-II) method has been applied to optimize the calculations and reveal the optimum conditions and results. In this way, the achieved optimum exergy efficiency of the system was calculated as 47.25%, followed by a value of 7.66 $/GJ for the modified overall unit cost of products. © 2021 Elsevier LtdDual parametric study; Flash-binary geothermal; Freshwater; Hydrogen; Modified specific exergy costing; Multi-objective optimizationDesalination; Energy conversion; Exergy; Genetic algorithms; Geothermal energy; Multiobjective optimization; Temperature; Waste heat; Dual parametric study; Energy conversion systems; Flash-binary geothermal; Fresh Water; Modified specific exergy costing; Multi generations; Multi-objectives optimization; Optimisations; Parametric study; Specific exergy; Costs; cost analysis; desalination; exergy; genetic algorithm; geothermal power; optimization; reverse osmosis; smart grid; sorting; Ardabil; Iran; SabalanDeanship of Scientific Research, King Faisal University, DSR, KFU: R.G.P. 1-328-42The authors extend their sincere appreciation to the Deanship of Scientific Research at King Khalid University for the support they received through research groups program under grant number ( R.G.P. 1-328-42 ).Zhao, X., Gu, B., Gao, F., Chen, S., Matching model of energy supply and demand of the integrated energy system in coastal areas (2020) J.

The Buongiorno model with the effects of Brownian and thermophoresis motion is considered to nanoparticles distribution inside the chamber. The geometry consists of a square chamber with two cylinders on the right and left sides as heater and cooler in order to create the buoyancy force, respectively. These cylinders represent hot and cold pipes, and the walls of the chamber are heat and mass insulation. the FVM with SIMPLE algorithm are used for velocity and pressure coupling. In current two-phase simulation, the effects of Rayleigh number, Hartmann number, inclination angle of chamber and volume fraction on streamline contours, isothermal lines, Lorentz force lines, nanoparticle distribution and Nusselt number are investigated. By modeling the motion of nanoparticles and evaluating it, a nanoparticle transport zone was observed. The diffusion effects of thermophoresis were significant in this zone. The nanoparticles were thrown from the hot cylinder to the cold cylinder. The application of a magnetic field enlarged the nanoparticle transport zone. However, increasing the Rayleigh number and decreasing the inclination angle of the enclosure caused the nanoparticles to disperse evenly. © 2021 The AuthorsBuongiorno model; Cu nanoparticles; Heat exchanger; Heater/cooler; MHD; Natural convectionCylinders (shapes); Heat exchangers; Magnetohydrodynamics; Nanomagnetics; Nanoparticles; Natural convection; Thermophoresis; Buoyancy forces; Diffusion effects; Hartmann numbers; Inclination angles; Pressure coupling; Rayleigh number; SIMPLE algorithm; Two-phase simulation; NanofluidicsUniversiti Malaya, UM: GPF054A-2020; Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, UTM: R.J130000.7113.00P12; King Khalid University, KKU; Deanship of Scientific Research, King Saud University; Ministry of Education – Kingdom of Saudi Arabi, MOE: 2/100/42The authors acknowledge the Deanship of Scientific Research for providing administrative and financial support.

The authors would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused. Furthermore, we corrected a few words in the abstract and introduction. The first sentence in the abstract “Consumer concern on the use of naturally-occurring antimicrobials from plants, microorganisms and animal sources continues to grow daily, mostly triggered by the increasing awareness about the risks associated with the use of synthetically manufactured additives and preservatives in the food industry”, has now been corrected to “Consumer awareness on the use of naturally-occurring antimicrobials from plants, microorganisms and animal sources continues to grow daily, mostly triggered by the increasing concern about the risks associated with the use of synthetically manufactured additives and preservatives in the food industry”. In the introduction, the word making was edited to made as we find it as a grammatical blunder. The sentence is now corrected and read as: For many years, food industry has made use of diverse chemicals to inhibit the growth of microorganisms that trigger food deterioration (Davidson et al., 2013).

In this study, 4-methyl-2-(4-methylpiperazinyl)pyrimido[4,5-b]benzothiazine (4-MMPB) and its two analogs, 4-propyl-2-(4-methylpiperazinyl)pyrimido[4,5-b]benzothiazine (4-PMPB) and 4-ethyl-2-(4-methylpiperazinyl)pyrimido[4,5-b]benzothiazine (4-EMPB), were proposed to have anti-tumor properties in prostate cancer. Methods: After synthesizing the compounds, cytotoxic effects of 4-MMPB and its two analogs against PC-3 cancerous and HDF normal cells were investigated by 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay and then mechanism of cell death was assessed by flow cytometry. Finally, the anti-tumor effects of the mentioned compounds were investigated in an immunocompromised C57BL/6 mouse model. Results: 4-PMPB and 4-EMPB had similar anti-cancer effects on PC-3 cells as compared with 4-MMPB, while they were not effective on normal cells. Moreover, apoptosis and ferroptosis were the main mechanisms of induced cell death in these cancerous cells. Furthermore, in vivo results indicated that both analogs had similar anti-cancer effects as 4-MMPB, leading to delayed tumor growth without any noticeable side effects in weight loss and histological investigations. Conclusion: Thus, our results suggest that specific targeting of lipoxygenases via 4-MMPB analogs can be considered as a treatment of choice for PC therapy, although it requires further investigations. © 2021, The Author(s).Chemotherapy; Lipoxygenases; Prostate cancer; Targeted therapyFerdowsi University of Mashhad, FUM: 51537, 51720This work was supported by the Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, Grant Numbers: 51537 and 51720.Pernar, C.H., Ebot, E.M., Wilson, K.M., Mucci, L.A., The epidemiology of prostate cancer (2018) Cold Spring Harb Perspect Med, 8, p. a030361. , PID: 29311132; Robles, L.A., Wright, S.J., Hackshaw-McGeagh, L., Shingler, E., Shiridzinomwa, C., Lane, J.A., Martin, R.M., Burden, S., Prostate cancer survivors’ preferences on the delivery of diet and lifestyle advice: a pilot best-worst discrete choice experiment (2020) Pilot Feasibility Stud, 6, pp. 1-9; Sokoła-Wysoczańska, E., Wysoczański, T., Wagner, J., Czyż, K., Bodkowski, R., Lochyński, S., Patkowska-Sokoła, B., Polyunsaturated fatty acids and their potential therapeutic role in cardiovascular system disorders—a review (2018) Nutrients, 10, p. 1561; Tallima, H., El Ridi, R., Arachidonic acid: physiological roles and potential health benefits—a review (2018) J Adv Res, 11, pp. 33-41. , COI: 1:CAS:528:DC%2BC1cXhsFartrvO, PID: 30034874; Radzikowska, U., Rinaldi, A.O., Çelebi Sözener, Z., Karaguzel, D., Wojcik, M., Cypryk, K., Akdis, M., Sokolowska, M., The influence of dietary fatty acids on immune responses (2019) Nutrients, 11, p. 2990. , COI: 1:CAS:528:DC%2BB3cXhslalsbfE; Long, J., Zhang, C.-J., Zhu, N., Du, K., Yin, Y.-F., Tan, X., Liao, D.F., Qin, L., Lipid metabolism and carcinogenesis, cancer development (2018) Am J Cancer Res, 8, pp. 778-791. , COI: 1:CAS:528:DC%2BC1MXhsVKlsb%2FO, PID: 29888102; Fleshner, N., Bagnell, P.S., Klotz, L., Venkateswaran, V., Dietary fat and prostate cancer (2004) J Urol, 171, pp. S19-S24. , COI: 1:CAS:528:DC%2BD2cXisV2rsw%3D%3D, PID: 14713748; Williams, C.D., Whitley, B.M., Hoyo, C., Grant, D.J., Iraggi, J.D., Newman, K.A., Gerber, L., Freedland, S.J., A high ratio of dietary n-6/n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids is associated with increased risk of prostate cancer (2011) Nutr Res, 31, pp. 1-8. , COI: 1:CAS:528:DC%2BC3MXhvFegtbw%3D, PID: 21310299; Cho, H.J., Kwon, G.T., Park, H., Song, H., Lee, K.W., Kim, J.-I., Park, J.H., A high-fat diet containing lard accelerates prostate cancer progression and reduces survival rate in mice: possible contribution of adipose tissue-derived cytokines (2015) Nutrients, 7, pp. 2539-2561. , COI: 1:CAS:528:DC%2BC2MXotVyqtbo%3D, PID: 25912035; Hu, M.B., Xu, H., Zhu, W.H., Bai, P.D., Hu, J.M., Yang, T., Jiang, H.W., Ding, Q., High-fat diet-induced adipokine and cytokine alterations promote the progression of prostate cancer in vivo and in vitro (2018) Oncol Lett, 15, pp. 1607-1615. , PID: 29434856; Day, S.D., Enos, R.T., McClellan, J.L., Steiner, J., Velázquez, K.T., Murphy, E., Linking inflammation to tumorigenesis in a mouse model of high-fat-diet-enhanced colon cancer (2013) Cytokine, 64, pp. 454-462. , COI: 1:CAS:528:DC%2BC3sXos12ltb8%3D, PID: 23735174; O'Neill, A.M., Burrington, C.M., Gillaspie, E.A., Lynch, D.T., Horsman, M.J., Greene, M.W., High-fat Western diet–induced obesity contributes to increased tumor growth in mouse models of human colon cancer (2016) Nutr Res, 36, pp. 1325-1334. , COI: 1:CAS:528:DC%2BC28XhvFSitbrI, PID: 27866828; Mustafi, D., Fernandez, S., Markiewicz, E., Fan, X., Zamora, M., Mueller, J., Brady, M.J., Karczmar, G.S., MRI reveals increased tumorigenesis following high fat feeding in a mouse model of triple-negative breast cancer (2017) NMR Biomed, 30; Zhu, Y., Aupperlee, M.D., Haslam, S.Z., Schwartz, R.C., Pubertally initiated high-fat diet promotes mammary tumorigenesis in obesity-prone FVB mice similarly to obesity-resistant BALB/c mice (2017) Transl Oncol, 10, pp. 928-935. , PID: 29024822; Nie, D., Cyclooxygenases and lipoxygenases in prostate and breast cancers (2007) Front Biosci, 12, pp. 1574-1585. , COI: 1:CAS:528:DC%2BD28Xht1Wgsb3J, PID: 17127404; Fürstenberger, G., Krieg, P., Müller-Decker, K., Habenicht, A., What are cyclooxygenases and lipoxygenases doing in the driver's seat of carcinogenesis?

The fractional derivative is described in the Caputo sense. The approximate solutions are obtained by using FSDM, which is the coupling method of fractional decomposition method and Sumudu transform. The method, in general, is easy to implement and yields good results.

This modification consists of the Laplace transform method, HPM, and a control parameter δ. This control convergence parameter δ in this new modification helps in adjusting and controlling the convergence region of the series solution and overcome some limitations of HPM and HPTM. The δ-HPTM and q-homotopy analysis transform method (q-HATM) are considered to study the generalized time-fractional perturbed (3 + 1) -dimensional Zakharov–Kuznetsov equation with Caputo fractional time derivative. This equation describes nonlinear dust-ion-acoustic waves in the magnetized two-ion-temperature dusty plasmas. The selection of an appropriate value of δ in δ-HPTM and the auxiliary parameters n and ħ in q-HATM gives a guaranteed convergence of series solution, but the difference between the two techniques is that the embedding parameter p in δ-HPTM varies from zero to nonzero δ, whereas the embedding parameter q in q-HATM varies from zero to 1n,n≥1. We examine the effect of fractional order on the considered problem and present the error estimate when compared with exact solution. The outcomes reveal complete reliability and efficiency of the proposed algorithm for solving various types of physical models arising in sciences and engineering. Furthermore, we present the convergence and error analysis of the two methods. © 2021, The Author(s).Laplace transform; Perturbed Zakharov–Kuznetsov equation; q-homotopy analysis transform method; δ-homotopy transform perturbation methodOwusu-Mensah, I., Akinyemi, L., Oduro, B., Iyiola, O.S., A fractional order approach to modeling and simulations of the novel COVID-19 (2020) Adv.

Chemical compounds DMPP, DCD, and ATS as well as aqueous extracts of capers seeds and palm bast, were added to inhibiting the nitrification in the soil, and some of the growth characteristics of the wheat. Three of nitrogen level were added as urea (46% N) fertilizer (100, 150 and 200 kg N per ha). Aqueous extracts of plants were added to the urea fertilizer at a concentration of 100 ml for each kg of fertilizer. The experiment designed used RCBD with three replications. Wheat seeds were sown at 11/15/2018. Soil samples were Collecting from the soil (0-30) cm during the growing season after (10, 20, 40 and 60) days after the fertilization. The amount of ammonium, nitrate and nitrite, were estimated. The results showed that the fertilizer level 150 kg N ha-1 with all extracts and chemical compound treatments were exceeded compared with 200 kg N ha-1 without treatments. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Aqueous extracts; Nitrification inhibitors; Urea fertilizerWatson, C.J., (2000) Inter. fertil.

For this purpose, ZnO nanorods are fabricated by hydrothermal method, is pumped by nanosecond pulsed laser and the reflected light is gathered by spectrometer. By increasing the ZnO nanorod concentration inside the gain medium, the lasing threshold and full width at half maximum are reduced in three examined samples with different ZnO nanorod concentration (10%, 30%, and 50%). Our results show that enhance in the concentrations yield to a reduction in threshold needed energy gradually as 52, 45, and 40μJ and the full width at half maximum (FWHM) changes to 13,12,10.5nm respectively. In addition, the coherency is appeared by nano spikes in the output lasing action by low threshold pumping power. © 2021 Author(s).Torre, R., (2010) J.

The use of special technologies of plating high-quality selective coatings on the heliocollector absorber makes it possible to substantially increase the coefficient of conversion of the solar radiation incidence flux. The research data are presented on the flat heliocollectors, which serve to heat-up a heat carrier used mainly for the needs of the hot-water supply for the individual consumers. In the performed experiments, the flat solar collectors were equipped with copper and stainless-steel absorbers. The studies showed that the heliocollectors can ensure better use depending on the operation mode of the entire system of the solar hot-water supply. The experiments were carried out by the staff of the Renewable Energy Sources and the Electric Energy and Networks department of Sevastopol State University at the Institute of Nuclear Energy and Industry. It was shown that the conversion coefficient of the solar power plants for the direct conversion of the radiation flux into thermal energy is far more energy efficient compared to that of the solar electric generation systems. © 2021, Allerton Press, Inc.flat solar collector; heat absorber; photovoltaic module; solar heat-up system; solar hot-water installation; storage tankDigital storage; Energy efficiency; Solar absorbers; Solar collectors; Solar energy; Solar power generation; Solar power plants; Water supply; Energy characteristics; Flat solar collector; Heat absorbers; Heat-up; Hot-water supply; Photovoltaic modules; Solar heat-up system; Solar hot water; Solar hot-water installation; Storage tank; Photovoltaic cellsUniversity of KufaThis work was supported by internal grant no. 27/06-31 of Sevastopol State University.We thank the colleagues of the Institute of Nuclear Energy and Industry (SevSU) and the University of Kufa (Republic of Iraq) for their continuous support.Kuznetsov, P.N., Abd Ali, L.M., Kuvshinov, V.V., Issa, H.A., Investigation of the losses of photovoltaic solar systems during operation under partial shading (2020) J.

For this purpose, we use a chemical method to synthesize nano hexagonal silver scatterer points and dissolve them in polymer and Rhodamine B dye media in different concentrations and different sizes. Our results from these samples under different pumping power, confirm the strong dependence on the sizes and concentration on the transition from incoherent to the coherent random laser, which is starts from 0.061 MW cm−2 as threshold power. This threshold power and linewidths of emission peaks decrease by an increase in the size and concentrations of nano-hexagonal points to 0.04 MW cm−2 and 0.2 nm, respectively. © 2021 IOP Publishing LtdNano hexagonal; Random laser; Rhodamine B; Threshold powerLaser beams; Rhodamine B; Silver; Chemical method; Different sizes; Emission peaks; Rhodamine B dye; Scattering centers; Strong dependences; Threshold power; Visible region; Pumping (laser)Gouedard, C, Auzel, F, Migus, A, Husson, D, Sauteret, C, Generation of spatially incoherent short pulses in laser-pumped neodymium stoichiometric crystals and powders (1993) J.

Accordingly, its optimization is described for various cases employing a genetic algorithm and adopting exergetic and economic approaches. In this way, the net generated electricity, the overall exergy efficiency, and total cost per unit exergy are chosen as the objective functions. The conventional CCHP setup comprises a solar subsystem including high-temperature solar collectors in arrangement with hot and cold storage tanks, an organic Rankine cycle (ORC), a heating production heat exchanger, and a single-effect absorption chiller. In addition to the solar subsystem, the modified setup embraces three heating production heat exchangers, a double-effect absorption chiller, and two regenerative ORCs. Indeed, the use of regeneration in the ORC provides the possibility of establishing two regenerative ORCs (RORCs) along whit a multi-heat recovery situation at the defined framework. Three different solar operational modes, i.e., high, low, and zero radiation statuses during a day are considered to analyze and compare the conventional and modified systems under identical conditions through a comprehensive parametric study. Taking into account the parametric study results, the oil mass ratio of the solar subsystem has a remarkable impact on the exergy and cost criteria of the system throughout the day. Moreover, the modification process provides the best exergetic and economic performances. This capability ascends the overall exergy efficiency by 0.8, 0.6, and 0.4 percent-points, and the exergoeconomic factor by 0.4, 0.9, and 2.1 percent-points for the aforementioned solar operation modes, respectively. © 2021Energy storage; Exergoeconomic; High-temperature solar collectors; Modified solar system; Multi-objective optimizationAbsorption cooling; Cold storage; Electric energy storage; Exergy; Genetic algorithms; Heat exchangers; Heat storage; Rankine cycle; Refrigerators; Solar collectors; Solar energy; Combined cooling heating and power; Exergetic; Exergoeconomics; Exergy efficiencies; High-temperature solar collector; Highest temperature; Modified solar system; Multi-objectives optimization; Parametric study; Solar-powered; Multiobjective optimizationHaghghi, M.A., Holagh, S.G., Pesteei, S.M., Chitsaz, A., Talati, F., On the performance, economic, and environmental assessment of integrating a solar-based heating system with conventional heating equipment$\mathsemicolon$ a case study (2019) Therm.

It is one of the most important diagnostic methods in sleep research and must be carried out with a high degree of accuracy because any errors in the scoring in the patient's sleep EEG recordings can cause serious problems. The aim of this research is to develop a new automatic method for detecting the most important characteristics in sleep stage 2 such as k-complexes based on multi-domain features. In this study, each EEG signal is divided into a set of segments using a sliding window technique. Based on extensive experiments during the training phase, the size of the sliding window is set to 0.5 s (s). Then a set of statistical, fractal, frequency and non-linear features are extracted from each epoch based on the time domain, Katz's algorithm, power spectrum density (PSD) and tunable Q-factor wavelet transform (TQWT). As a result, a vector of twenty-two features is obtained to represent each EEG segment. In order to detect k-complexes, the extracted features were analysed for their ability to detect the k-complex waveforms. Based on the analysis of the features, twelve out of twenty-two features are selected and forwarded to a least square support vector machine (LS-SVM) classifier to identify k-complexes in EEG signals. A set of various classification techniques of K-means and extreme learning machine classifiers are used to compare the obtained results and to evaluate the performance of the proposed method.The experimental results showed that the proposed method, based on multi-domain features, achieved better recognition results than other methods and classifiers. An average accuracy, sensitivity and specificity of 97.7 %, 97 %, and 94.2 % were obtained, respectively, with the CZ-A1 channel according to the R&K standard. The experimental results with high classification performance demonstrated that the technique can help doctors optimize the diagnosis and treatment of sleep disorders. © 2021 Elsevier B.V. and Japan Neuroscience SocietyEEG signal; Fractal and statistical features; K-complexes detection; Katz's algorithm; LS-SVM classifier; Power spectrum density (PSD); Tunable Q-factor wavelet transform (TQWT)adult; arousal; Article; automation; binary classification; clinical article; controlled study; diagnostic accuracy; diagnostic test accuracy study; electroencephalogram; electroencephalography; feature extraction; female; Fourier transform; human; k means clustering; least squares support vector machine; male; middle aged; power spectrum; segmentation algorithm; sensitivity and specificity; signal processing; sleep disorder; sleep spindle; stage 2 sleep; wavelet transform; young adult; algorithm; electroencephalography; least square analysis; signal processing; sleep stage; support vector machine; wavelet analysis; Algorithms; Electroencephalography; Humans; Least-Squares Analysis; Signal Processing, Computer-Assisted; Sleep Stages; Support Vector Machine; Wavelet AnalysisUniversity of Southern Queensland, USQAuthors would like to thank Dr Barbara Harmes in Language Centre, Open Access College, at University of Southern Queensland, Australia for providing help in proof-reading this paper.Aboalayon, K., Faezipour, M., Almuhammadi, W., Moslehpour, S., Sleep stage classification using EEG signal analysis: a comprehensive survey and new investigation (2016) Entropy, 18, p. 272; Acharya, U.R., Bhat, S., Faust, O., Adeli, H., Chua, E.C.-P., Lim, W.J.E., Koh, J.E.W., Nonlinear dynamics measures for automated EEG-based sleep stage detection (2015) Eur.

These configurations have been investigated in two different configurations stair and flat conformation. In this work, we investigate the spin properties, in addition to thermoelectrical properties for all cases. Our results show that there is a variation in spin properties in both stair and flat cases for dimer and trimer ferrocenes, Moreover, the room temperature electrical conductance in a flat case is higher than a stair- case around Fermi energy; also, the thermopower of these junctions is fairly high, varying about 100 μV/K in both cases. However, the thermoelectric figure of merit ZT of flat case ranging about 0.5 whereas in stair case it ranging between 0.1 to 0.5. © 2021 Author(s).electrical conductance; figure of merit; Molecular junction; Quantum transport; Seebeck coefficientsIsmael, A., Molecular-scale thermoelectricity: As simple as 'ABC' (2020) Nanoscale Advances, 2 (11), pp. 5329-5334; Noori, M., Sadeghi, H., Lambert, C.J., Stable-radicals increase the conductance and Seebeck coefficient of graphene nanoconstrictions.

Materials and Methods: In the first experiments rats were injected with histamine 5 mg/kg i.p., and blood samples were collected to determine the effect of histamine on serum level of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), prolactin, FSH, and luteinizing hormone (LH) after 10, 20, and 30 min of histamine injection. In the second experiments, rats were treated with (H 1 blocker), chlorphenramine 10 mg/kg, i.p. or (H 2 blocker), cimetidine 80 mg/kg, i.p. respectively, and after 30 min they were injected with histamine and blood samples were taken 30 min after the injection of histamine to determine the same hormones. Results: Histamine significantly elevated serum ACTH and LH level, and these stimulatory effects were inhibited by both H1 and H2 receptor blockers. However, histamine significantly inhibited the serum level of thyroid-stimulating hormone and this inhibitory effect was blocked by H2 receptor blocker, while it showed no effect on the secretion of both prolactin and FSH, although H2 blocker significantly decreased prolactin level and H1 blocker significantly elevated FSH level. Conclusion: The results clearly indicated that histaminergic pathways were involved in the anterior pituitary secretion. © 2021 Published by Scientific Scholar on behalf of Indian Journal of Physiology and Pharmacology.Adrenocorticotropic hormone; Follicle-stimulating hormone; Histamine; Luteinizing hormone; Pituitary; Prolactinantihistaminic agent; chlorpheniramine; cimetidine; corticotropin; follitropin; histamine; histamine H1 receptor; histamine H2 receptor; histamine receptor; luteinizing hormone; prolactin; thyrotropin; animal experiment; Article; blood sampling; hormone blood level; hormone release; hypophysis function; male; nonhuman; peptic ulcer; protein expression; radioimmunoassay; rat; signal transductionchlorpheniramine, 132-22-9; cimetidine, 51481-61-9, 70059-30-2; corticotropin, 11136-52-0, 9002-60-2, 9061-27-2; follitropin, 9002-68-0; histamine, 51-45-6, 56-92-8, 93443-21-1; luteinizing hormone, 39341-83-8, 9002-67-9; prolactin, 12585-34-1, 50647-00-2, 9002-62-4; thyrotropin, 9002-71-5Theoharides, TC., Neuroendocrinology of mast cells: Challenges and controversies (2017) Exp Dermatol, 26, pp. 751-759; Haas, HL, Panula, PP., Histamine receptors (2016) Neuropharmacology, 106, pp. 1-2; Cataldi, M, Borriello, F, Granata, F, Annunziato, L, Marone, G., Histamine receptors and antihistamines: From discovery to clinical applications (2014) Chem Immunol Allergy, 100, pp. 214-226; Sadek, B, Stark, H., Cherry-picked ligands at histamine receptor subtypes (2016) Neuropharmacology, 106, pp. 56-73; Panula, P, Chazot, PL, Cowart, M, Gutzmer, R, Leurs, R, Liu, WL, International union of basic and clinical pharmacology.

Twisted engineering is a wide-use method to improve heat transfer in heat exchangers. A counter-flow mode utilizing hot water in the inner tube and cold air in the outer tube was considered. This study aims to progress the thermal performance of the double tube heat exchanger by using twisted tubes instead of plane tubes. The heat exchanger was (1m) length, outer diameter (0.05m) and inner diameter (0.025m), both with a thickness (0.004m). It was tested for different values of twist ratios (Tr= 5, 10, and 15 respectively) and Reynolds numbers (Re=5000 to 30000). The Navier - Stockes and energy equations besides the turbulence model in demand for modelling this physical problem. ANSYS Fluent code was used for the numerical simulation. The results showed that the twisted tube heat exchanger showed increasing heat transfer compared with a plain tube heat exchanger. It was found that the cold outlet temperature, pressure drop and effectiveness are increased as the twist ratio increases. © 2021 International Information and Engineering Technology Association.

Putity of water can be noticeably affected by the presence of these dyes. Consequently, there must be an effective methods to remove dyes from water produced from the textile industry. Adsorption and many other methods were used to do the duty. In adsorption method, the cheap and affordable materials would be better. Bentonite is the one who have these qualities with a PH value of (2-10). The results showed that the change in weight of the adsorbent substance is about (0.25-2g). The changing of the initial focus within a range of (5-30 mg/l). The range of time periods is (30-240min). It was conducted that 240 min was the highest value of adsorption of Congored tincture on the Bentonite surface. The electrochemical behaviour of adsorption method of Congored dye with bentonite as a surface was monitored using the technology of cyclic voltammetry.

Therefore, the aim of the present study was to check the prevalence and resistance patterns of uropathogens in the community acquired UTIs. Methods: A total of 7132 urine samples were combined from male 3131 (43.9%) and female 4001 (56.1%) outpatients suspected of having UTIs, respectively over a three-year period and cultured on routine culture media. The bacteria have been identified using basic biochemical tests, and sensitivity to various antibiotics was determined by the method of disk diffusion. Results: Of 7132 urine samples 797 (11.2%) yielded significant uropathogens. Among the bacterial species, Escherichia coli was the major causative agent of UTIs for both gender (63.7%), followed by Klebsiella spp (20.8%), Enterococcus faecalis (5.3%), Pseudomonas spp (4.1%), Proteus spp (3.1%), Enterobacter spp (1.5%), Candida albicans (0.6%), Staphylococcus saprophyticus (0.5%), Providencia spp (0.1%) and Staphylococcus aureus (0.1%). The antibacterial sensitivity testing for E. coli, to commonly used antibiotics were showed variable resistant as follows: Ampicilln (78%), Amoxicillin (71%), trimethoprim sulfamethoxazole (42%), Amox/clav. (14%) gentamicin (20%), nitrofurantoin (11%), nalidixic acid (22%), ciprofloxacin (20%), Imipenem (16%),Ceftazidim (26%),Cefotaxim (25%),Ceftriaxon (21%),Cefuroxim (33%). Conclusions: The findings showed that antimicrobial resistance patterns of uropathogens in variable, and continuous monitoring of resistance patterns by using of antibiotic susceptibility testing in the laboratory is the most appropriate to treat UTIs rather than the choice of UTIs empirical treatment. © 2021 UPM Press.

This interdisciplinary paper brings together archaeologists and historians to present (1) an updated history of the Khandaq Shapur drawing upon a wider range of sources, including Arabic scholarly sources, and (2) a modern map of the Khandaq Shapur produced from a ground truthed remote sensing using historic Corona satellite imagery from the 1960s and imagery available in Google Earth. This new map of the Khandaq Shapur’s ground truthed location is compared to the known locations of Sasanian sites from previous archaeological surveys to contextualise the Khandaq Shapur within the wider archaeological landscape. Together, the landscape archaeology and historical evidence provide a comprehensive picture of this unique feature: shedding light not only on its precise location, but also its nature (what was it?) and how it was used over time. © 2021 by the authors.

This study is aimed to identify epidemiology of CL, detect the prevalence of Leishmania tropica and find the phylogenetic relationship. Methodology: The current study was conducted in the main hospitals of Thi-Qar province-south of Iraq for period from November 2018 to October 2019. Nested-PCR was used to amplify kinetoplast minicircle fragments DNA. Results: It was recorded 247 clinical cases with CL, the infections of males were higher than females, while infection rate appeared gradual reduction with age progress. Furthermore, the most CL infections were as single lesions and occurred in December. The infections of upper limbs were high when compared with other body regions. The molecular diagnosis showed L. tropica was more frequently. DNA sequences of kDNA gene of L. tropica showed confirmative genetic detection of local isolates using NCBI-Blast data and phylogenetic tree analysis after comparison with global recorded isolates. The local L. tropica isolates showed genetically closed related to NCBI-Blast L. tropica with accession number AB678350.1. Generally, the analysis of kDNA nitrogen bases sequences showed that all of samples were consistent with those recorded at the NCBI. Conclusion: The kDNA minicircle sequences analysis results showed mismatching of the local isolates decrease whenever approached from the Iranian border. In addition, genetic heterogeneity diagnosis is important for detection of therapy, control and epidemiological studies. © 2021 Elsevier LtdCutaneous leishmaniasis; Dermal lesion; kDNA sequences; Kinetoplast minicircles DNA; L. tropica; Phylogenetic treeadolescent; adult; body distribution; child; controlled study; cutaneous leishmaniasis; DNA sequence; female; gene amplification; gene identification; genetic heterogeneity; geographic distribution; human; infection rate; Iraq; kinetoplast; Leishmania tropica; major clinical study; male; molecular diagnosis; molecular epidemiology; nonhuman; nucleotide sequence; parasite isolation; phylogeny; polymerase chain reaction; population structure; prevalence; Review; sequence analysis; animal; epidemiology; genetics; Iran; Iraq; phylogeny; kinetoplast DNA; Animals; DNA, Kinetoplast; Female; Iran; Iraq; Leishmania tropica; Male; PhylogenyGENBANK: MN334661:MN334670DNA, KinetoplastThis study is part of PhD thesis for Mohammed H.

Dept., University of Thi-Qar, Nasseriya, IraqThe thermal and hydraulic performance of a twisted circular tube with an obstacle attached to the internal surface along the tube length (L = 1000 mm) is numerically analyzed in this work. The considered configuration is investigated by varying obstacle height ratio (OHR = h/D) which is the obstacle height (h) to the tube diameter (D = 20 mm) while obstacle thickness is kept constant under turbulent flow regime, i.e. Reynolds number 4000 ≤ Re ≤ 10,000 for air as working fluid. Various cases of OHR are triggered 0.0, 0.125, 0.25, 0.375, 0.5 and 0.625 respectively. The results show that the larger OHR gives a higher Nusselt number and vice versa due to increasing swirling power to the air in the tube. However, a higher friction factor is the penalty associated with this large obstacle. Recorded thermal performance factor TPF is beyond unity for all cases. The optimal value of TPF is observed at OHR = 0.625 which is recommended for high heat transfer rate requirement. Corresponding TPF = 2.07 at Re = 4000 and TPF = 1.69 at Re = 10,000. The results are validated against the findings of the previous works and the comparisons show good agreements. © 2021 The AuthorsNumerical solution; Nusselt number; TPF; Twisted obstacled tubeAir; Reynolds number; Tubes (components); Circular tubes; Flow and heat transfer; Friction factors; High heat transfers; Internal surfaces; Obstacle heights; Thermal and hydraulic performance; Thermal performance factors; Heat transferSamruaisin, P., Kunlabud, S., Kunnarak, K., Chuwattanakul, V., Eiamsa-ard, S., Intensification of convective heat transfer and heat exchanger performance by the combined influence of a twisted tube and twisted tape (2019) Case Stud.

The tensile reinforcements of the specimens were subjected to 7% and 20% corrosion rates. Steel fibres in volume fractions of 0.8%, 1.2%, and 1.8% were added to concrete matrices. Six of the beam specimens were mixed with pre-corroded steel fibres at a corrosion level of 50% to study the hybrid effect of their corrosion and the longitudinal reinforcement on shear performance. The test results showed that adding the fibres improved the shear capacity, and reduced crack initiation and propagation due to corrosion, mode of failure, and deflection. The shear capacity of the non-corroded SFRC beams increased by about 68%, 72%, and 82% for the 0.8%, 1.2%, and 1.8% volume fractions of steel fibre, respectively, compared to RC beams without fibre. Also, the mode of failure changed from brittle shear failure to ductile flexure failure for SFRC beams. A 1.8% volumetric ratio of steel fibres was very useful in terms of enhancing shear behaviour. The corrosion in the tensile reinforcement of the beams reduced the shear strength by 6%–8% for the corrosion rates of 7% and 20%, respectively; however, the corrosion also reduced the maximum loading by 10%–22%. Furthermore, the corroded both steel fibres and corroded rebars reduced loading by 6%–37%. As a result, it was concluded that the steel fibres can enhance the performance of the beams for shear even in a harsh environment. Finally, the results of some models obtained from the literature to compute the shear strength of RC and SFRC beams with and without corrosion effect were compared with the experimental results of this study. © 2021 Institution of Structural EngineersBeams; Corrosion; Mode of failure; SFRC; Shear strength; Steel fibre; Stress–strainBiolzi, L., Cattaneo, S., Mola, F., Bending-shear response of self-consolidating and high-performance reinforced concrete beams (2014) Eng Struct, 59, pp. 399-410; Lim, W.-Y., Hong, S.-G., Shear Tests for Ultra-High Performance Fiber Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC) Beams with Shear Reinforcement (2016) Int J Concr Struct Mater, 10 (2), pp. 177-188; Narayanan, R., Darwish, I.Y.S., Use of Steel Fibers as Shear Reinforcement (1987) ACI Struct J, 84 (3), pp. 216-227; Mansur, M.A., Ong, K.C.G., Paramasivam, P., Shear strength of fibrous concrete beams without stirrups (1986) J Struct Eng (United States), 112 (9), pp. 2066-2079; Anandan, S., Vallarasu Manoharan, S., Sengottian, T., Corrosion effects on the strength properties of steel fibre reinforced concrete containing slag and corrosion inhibitor (2014) Int J Corros, 2014, pp. 1-7; Xue, X., Seki, H., (2010), 8 (2), pp. 145-156. , “Influence of Longitudinal Bar Corrosion on Shear Behavior of RC Beams,”; Juarez, C.A., Guevara, B., Fajardo, G., Castro-Borges, P., Ultimate and nominal shear strength in reinforced concrete beams deteriorated by corrosion (2011) Eng Struct, 33 (12), pp. 3189-3196; Nguyen, C., Lambert, P., Effect of current density on accelerated corrosion of reinforcing steel bars in concrete (2018) Struct Infrastruct Eng, 14 (11), pp. 1535-1546; Dai, M., Yang, O., Xiao, Y., Li, F., Influence of longitudinal bar corrosion on impact behavior of RC beams (2016) Mater.

We introduce some operator identities for the Cauchy operator and represent the homogeneous Rogers–Szegö polynomials by the Cauchy operator. Also we use the Cauchy operator to derive the basic identities for hn(x, y| q) : generating function, Mehler’s formula and Rogers formula. Then, we give several extended identities for hn(x, y| q) such as extended generating function, extended Mehler’s formula, extended Rogers formula and other extended identities. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.05A30; 33D45; Cauchy operator; Generating function; homogenous Rogers–Szegö polynomials; Mehler’s formula; q-Difference equation; Rogers formula; Rogers–Szegö polynomialsAbdlhusein, M.A., The Euler operator for basic hypergeometric series (2014) Int.

The calculation was preformed based on density functional theory (DFT) implemented by SIESTA. The results reveal that the transmission calculations T(E) of all five monomers/dimers show no spin dependent with highest value for monomer structure around Fermi energy. The phthalocyanine monomer structures show higher conductivity calculation around the Fermi energy in comparison to conductivity values of phthalocyanine dimer structures. Further, thermoelectric properties such as Seebeck coefficient (S), thermal conductance (k) and figure of merit (ZT) are also presented. It is found that the highest positive Seebeck coefficient (S) value belongs to zinc phthalocyanine monomer, while the highest negative (S) value belongs to free base phthalocyanine dimer structure over a wide range of Fermi energies. Moreover, zinc phthalocyanine monomer structure shows highest thermal conductance (k), while phthalocyanine dimer structures exhibit lowest thermal conductance (k) in the vicinity of DFT predicted Fermi energy. As a result, high room-temperature figure of merit (ZT ≈1.7) is reported for free base phthalocyanine dimer, which might be due to the low thermal conductivity and high Seebeck coefficient and electrical conductance values, which makes it a preferred candidate for potential thermoelectric applications. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Density functional theory;

Multisim Software is a great software that creates the best user-friendly simulation environment for professors, engineers, and students. We can simulate electronic circuits and build prototypes for Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs). In this paper, we have simulated CSP Circuit in two ways. Firstly, by using a pulsed voltage source. Secondly, by using a waveform generator. We have analyzed the behavior of the CSP Circuit with various rise times.

The study investigates the transmission and conductance characteristics of Bare-Pc without central metal ion and with different transition metal ions at the centre of (Pc) such as (Mn, Co, Ni, and Zn) in two different molecular configurations, cis and trans. The results reveal that the conductance changed by varying the transition metal-centre in the order of Co > Ni > Zn in trans, and closely similar pattern Co > Ni > Mn in cis with higher values in trans configuration. This reflects the correlation between the spin-dependent transport properties with the transition metal-centre type and the molecular structure. Further, thermoelectrical properties such as thermal conductance (k), Seebeck coefficient (S) and figure of merit (ZT) are investigated. It was found that (k), (S) and (ZT) have higher values in case of trans configuration for Co-Pc, Ni-Pc and Zn-Pc structures. Thus, by varying the transition metal-centre type and the molecular configuration of (Pc) molecule, transport properties can be tuned to produce a good value of the transmission and electrical conductance, thermal conductance, Seebeck coefficient, and figure of merit of the (Pc) molecular junction for potential high conductance and efficient thermoelectric applications. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Cobalt;

This material has many important potentials and features, and the methods of using this material in construction in the past and present varied greatly, responding to environmental determinants; Such as the climate, the quality of the soil, and the available materials on the one hand. The aim of the present study is to test the ability of this material to attenuate gamma-ray radiation. Gamma ray attenuation coefficients such as linear and mass attenuation half value layer, tenth value layer, and mean free path for deferent thickness slabs of clay was measured using 3″×3″ NaI(Tl) gamma spectroscopy system at energy 662 KeV, 1173 KeV, and 1332 KeV. The measured values of the attenuation parameters showed good agreement with the theoretical calculations. The elemental compositions of the clay slabs analyzed by using an EDXRF spectrometer. The obtained results appear that the clay is a suitable alternative for radiation protection and achieve a safe level of radiation exposure for photons that have moderate energy. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.building materials; Clay; gamma ray attenuation; radiation shieldingGamma ray spectrometers; Gamma rays; Radiation shielding; Sodium Iodide; Ultraviolet spectroscopy; Buildings materials; Energy; Environmental determinants; Experimental investigations; Gamma ray radiation; Gamma-ray attenuation; Gamma-ray shielding; Old building materials; Past and present; Shielding capability; Building materialsAdams, J.

Today, cysts’ rupture or content leakage during surgery and involvement of organs adjacent to the organ in-volved, and consequently secondary cysts, are the major concern for hydatid cyst surgeons. There-fore, using scolicidal substances such as hypertonic saline 20%, silver nitrate and formalin has been considered to reduce the risk of protoscoleces spread and recurrence of disease in recent years. The current work was designed to assess the antiparasitic effects of Capparis spinose L. extract against hydatid cyst protoscoleces. Methods: Collected protoscoleces from liver fertile hydatid cysts of infected sheep were exposed to the different concentrations of the essential oil (150, 300, 600 mg/mL) for 5-60 min in vitro and ex vivo. Then by using the eosin exclusion assay, the viability of protoscoleces was studied. The primary phytochemical analysis of the C. spinosa extract was done to assess the presence of tannins, alkaloids, saponins, flavonoids, terpenoids and glycosides. Results: C. spinosa extract exhibited a powerful protoscolicidal activity in vitro so at the dose of 300 and 600 mg/ml, it entirely eliminated the parasite after 10 and 5 minutes; whereas at lower dos-es, it demonstrated weak protoscolicidal activity. In ex vivo assay, no similar effect to in vitro assay was observed, so more time was required to show a potent protoscolicidal activity. C. spinosa ex-tract, at the concentrations of 300 and 600 mg/mL after an exposure time of 20 and 12 min, killed 100% of protoscoleces within the hydatid cyst, respectively. The findings of primary phytochemi-cal screening of the C. spinosa extract demonstrated the existence of flavonoids, tannins, ter-penoids, glycosides and alkaloids in this plant. Conclusion: The obtained results in vitro and ex vivo exhibited potent protoscolicidal effects of C. spinosa extract particularly at the concentrations of 600 and 300 mg/ml, which entirely eliminated the parasite after 5-20 min exposure. However, more supplementary works are required to verify these findings through assessing in animal models and clinical subjects. © 2021 Bentham Science Publishers.Cystic echinococcosis; Echinococcus granulosus; Eosin test; Mortality; Protoscoleces; Surgeryalkaloid; cellulose; chloroform; distilled water; eosin; essential oil; ferrous chloride; flavonoid; formaldehyde; gelatin; glycoside; hydrochloric acid; methanol; phytochemical; plant extract; saponin; silver nitrate; sodium chloride; sulfuric acid; tannin; terpenoid; essential oil; plant extract; antiparasitic activity; Article; Capparis spinosa; cell motility; echinococcosis; Echinococcus granulosus; evaporation; microscopy; mortality rate; nonhuman; phytochemistry; protoscolex; protoscolicidal activity; Soxhlet extraction; animal; Capparis; echinococcosis; Echinococcus granulosus; sheep; Animals; Capparis; Echinococcosis; Echinococcus granulosus; Oils, Volatile; Plant Extracts; Sheepcellulose, 61991-22-8, 68073-05-2, 9004-34-6; chloroform, 67-66-3; eosin, 17372-87-1, 51395-88-1, 548-26-5; ferrous chloride, 12040-57-2, 7758-94-3; formaldehyde, 50-00-0; gelatin, 9000-70-8; hydrochloric acid, 7647-01-0; methanol, 67-56-1; saponin, 8047-15-2; silver nitrate, 7761-88-8; sodium chloride, 7647-14-5, 23724-87-0, 49658-21-1; sulfuric acid, 7664-93-9; tannin, 1401-55-4; Oils, Volatile; Plant ExtractsSigma Aldrich, United StatesAgudelo Higuita, NI, Brunetti, E, McCloskey, C., Cystic Echinococ-cosis (2016) J Clin Microbiol, 54 (3), pp. 518-523; Mahmoudi, S, Mamishi, S, Banar, M, Pourakbari, B, Keshavarz, H., Epidemiology of echinococcosis in Iran: a systematic review and meta-analysis (2019) BMC Infect Dis, 19 (1), p. 929. , http://dx.doi.org/10.1186/s12879-019-4458-5, PMID: 31684882; Fasihi Harandi, M, Budke, CM, Rostami, S., The monetary burden of cystic echinococcosis in Iran (2012) PLoS Negl Trop Dis, 6 (11), p. e1915. , http://dx.doi.org/10.1371/journal.pntd.0001915, PMID: 23209857; Brunetti, E, Kern, P, Vuitton, DA., Writing Panel for the WHO-I-WGE.

It is performed by depositing a main wire plus a cold feed wire melted by the electric arc heat. In the present work, a new experimental set-up was developed, which consists of a MIG-welding source and an external cold wire feed unit plus a 3-axis machine. The main intent of the current paper is to investigate the microstructural and mechanical properties of austenitic stainless steel grade 309L deposited parts. The result showed that the value of the wire feed ratio (WR) plays an important role in both microstructure and mechanical properties. The microstructure mainly consists of two phases ferrite and austenite as predominant phases throughout the parts. Widmansttãten austenite structure that is denoted as (W) this appears in the white region, and Vermicular delta ferrite (V) appears as the dark-etching phase. The tensile test results showed the UTS value increased by 17.36% in the longitudinal direction when using cold feeding, while it increased by 4.39% in the vertical direction. The hardness test results showed that the hardness value increased by 36.23% when using cold feeding. Also, cold wire feeding reduces interpass temperature into the workpiece by 10%. © 2021, ASM International.additive manufacturing; cold wire feeding; mechanical properties of AM; microstructure; MIG-welding3D printers; Additives; Austenite; Electric arcs; Etching; Feeding; Ferrite; Gas metal arc welding; Gas welding; Hardness; Inert gas welding; Inert gases; Microstructure; Tensile testing; Austenitic stainless; Experimental set up; Inter-pass temperatures; Longitudinal direction; Metal inert gas welding; Microstructure and mechanical properties; Shaped metal depositions; Vertical direction; WireThis work was done at the University of The-Qar /Faculty of Engineering, Iraq, The-Qar.Brandl, E., Heckenberger, U., Holzinger, V., Buchbinder, D., Additive Manufactured AlSi10Mg Samples Using Selective Laser Melting (SLM): Microstructure, High Cycle Fatigue, And Fracture Behavior (2012) Mater.

However, there is no work has been investigated in the literature to provide unified statistics of the product and the ratio of the products that can be used for a wide range of non-composite and composite fading conditions. Accordingly, in this paper, the statistical properties, namely, probability density function (PDF), cumulative distribution function (CDF), and moment generating function (MGF) of the product and the ratio of the product of independent and non-identically distributed (i.n.d.) mixture Gamma (MG) RVs are derived. A MG distribution has been widely employed to approximate with high accuracy most of the conventional fading models, for example, Rayleigh, Nakagami-m, Nakagami-q (Hoyt), and Nakagami-n (Rician) as well as the generalised composite fading channels, such as, generalised- (Formula presented.) /gamma, (Formula presented.) /gamma, and (Formula presented.) /gamma. Hence, the derived PDF, CDF, and MGF are utilized for the Beaulieu–Xie and (Formula presented.) shadowed fading channels that have not been yet presented by the previous works due to mathematical intractability of their statistics. Thus, the equivalent parameters of a MG distribution for these channels are given. To this end, simple closed-form mathematically tractable expressions of the performance metrics are obtained. The derived statistics are applied to analyse the outage probability (OP), the average error probability for different modulation schemes, the effective rate (ER) of wireless communication systems and the average area under the receiver operating characteristics (AUC) curve of energy detection over cascaded fading channels. Moreover, the OP of the multi-hop communications systems with co-channel interference (CCI), both the lower bound of secure OP (SOPL) and probability of non-zero secrecy capacity (PNSC) of the physical layer security (PLS), and the outage and delay-limited capacities of CRNs are studied via using the statistics of the ratio of the product of MG variates. A comparison between the numerical results and the Monte Carlo simulations is presented to verify the validation of our analysis. © 2021 The Authors.

First, the RollerFORM and Omniscan equipment were sufficiently used to identify the delaminations. Second, in conjunction with guided waves, the developed imaging method was successfully used to detect and quantify the interested delaminations. The tuning curves were determined experimentally to define the dominant Lamb wave modes of incident waves. Third, multi-physics three-dimensional finite element simulations of propagating and interacting Lamb waves with delaminations were implemented to extract the wavefield data for wavenumber analysis. The experimental part was conducted to validate the numerical results using SLDV. The effect of the delamination depth on the trapped waves generated over the delamination region was studied numerically and experimentally. The results showed that trapped waves could be affected by the delamination depth. Both numerical and experimental results demonstrated that the near surface delamination has strong trapped waves over the delamination region while the far surface delamination has weak trapped waves. The energy distribution maps of numerical and experimental wavefields data sufficiently quantified the interested delaminations. A good agreement was achieved between the numerical and experimental results. © The Author(s) 2020.composite materials; finite element simulation; imaging methods; non-destructive testing; scattered waves;

The limit equilibrium method is used considering the soil failure theory under a rough based strip foundation. Three equations are developed to determine the values of the efficiency factors resulting from the effect of interference of foundations for the surcharge, cohesion, and weight. The effect of variable factors on the equations, which represent the angle of friction, the distance between the foundations and the width of the foundations has been studied, and the results have shown that when the interference occurs between the foundations, the soil bearing capacity increases with the increase in the angle of friction and decrease the distance between the foundations, while the change in the width of the foundations has just an effect on interference factor related to the soil weight, ζ γ . Comparing the results of the present mathematical model with the results of available theoretical analyses and previous experimental studies shows acceptable and reliable agreement. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Bearing capacity; Bearings (machine parts); Friction; Soils; Angle of friction; Efficiency factor; Interference factor; Limit equilibrium methods; Soil bearing capacity; Soil failure; Strip foundation; Variable factors; FoundationsFattah, M.

These molecular junctions have been explored in two different configuration trans and cis conformation. In this work, we investigate the spin properties, in addition to thermoelectrical properties for all cases. Our results show that there is a variation in spin properties in staggered ferrocene when move from trans to cis configuration. However, in eclipsed ferrocene case there is no spin effects. Moreover, the room temperature electrical conductance in cis staggered ferrocene case is higher than other cases near the DFT Fermi energy. Furthermore, the thermopower of these junctions are rather high ranging about 150 µV/K. However, the thermoelectric figure of merit ZT of staggered ferrocene in cis configuration has the highest value with 1.06. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.electrical conductance; figure of merit; Molecular junction; Quantum transport; Seebeck coefficientsIron compounds; Thermoelectric equipment; Cis configurations; Electrical conductance; Gold electrodes; Molecular junction; Spin properties; Theoretical study; Thermoelectric figure of merit; Thermoelectric properties; OrganometallicsMutier Mohammed, N., Al-Badry Lafy, F., Electronic and thermoelectric properties of a single pyrene molecule (2020) Chinese Journal of Physics, 63, pp. 365-374; Ali, Ismael, Molecular-scale thermoelectricity: as simple as 'ABC' (2020) Nanoscale Advances, 2 (11), pp. 5329-5334; Noori, M., Sadeghi, H., Lambert, C.

In this work method was used Taguchi to study the effect of operating transactions on the surface quality of the operator (the barrel). In this study four parameters were used which are sample length (L), sample diameter (D), feed rate (F), and cut depth (T). The objective of this work is to improve the quality of the surface of the machine through the control of the main input parameters for the process of turning aluminum and steel materials. It was selected orthogonal group L9 to study the impact of key factors on the variable response, i.e. barreling. The contribution of key factors and their interaction with the optimal level were determined using ANOVA. The results showed that the cutting depth was 0.5 mm and the feeding rate was 0.5 mm/roll yield minimum barreling. In addition, ANOVA results indicated that among four major factors, the specimen diameter and cut depth significantly contributed to reducing barreling. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Aluminum coated steel; Analysis of variance (ANOVA); Barreling; Experimental investigations; Input parameter; Operating parameters; Orthogonal groups; Sample diameter; Sample length; Steel materials; Turning process; TurningDaniel, I.

In this regard, the current paper is motivated to devise and evaluate a novel geothermal-driven multigeneration system under the effect of various working fluids. The proposed system consists of a flash-binary geothermal power plant, an organic flash cycle (OFC), a power/cooling subsystem (an organic Rankine cycle (ORC) and a thermoelectric generator incorporated with a compression refrigeration cycle), and freshwater and hydrogen production units utilizing a humidification-dehumidification desalination unit and a low-temperature electrolyzer. Considering the design potential of the OFC and ORC, four different environmentally-friendly working fluids, i.e., R123 and R600 in the OFC and R1234yf and R1234ze(e) in the ORC are selected and classified in four groups to introduce the best one, under the energy, exergy, and economic (3E analysis) approaches. Also, the whole system is optimized through a genetic algorithm, respecting the optimal solution for the energy efficiency and unit exergy cost of the products. According to the results, R123/R1234ze(e) shows the highest cooling, hydrogen, freshwater production rates, and energy efficiency. Likewise, the maximum power generation and exergy efficiency belong to R600/R1234ze(e). Moreover, R600/R1234yf has the lowest unit exergy cost of products. © 2021 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLCEnvironmentally-friendly working fluids; Geothermal energy; Multigeneration; Optimization; Organic flash cycle;

In this regard, this study supports a comprehensive evaluation and multi-criteria optimization of a novel poly-generation plant embracing geothermal energy from thermodynamic and thermoeconomic perspectives. Hence, the utilization of modified subsystems and smart use of multi heat recovery processes are projected and appraised. In this regard, the plant consists of a double-flash binary geothermal subsystem, an organic Rankine cycle in combination with an ejector refrigeration cycle considering a zeotropic working fluid (a mixture of pentane and R142b), a heating production heat exchanger, and a proton exchange membrane electrolyzer with the combined production of cooling, heating, power, and hydrogen. The crucial thermodynamic and thermoeconomic variables are investigated against key parameters and concluded that the sensitivity of outcomes is more evident with the variation in zeotropic working fluid composition and the vapor quality at the heating production heat exchanger's outlet.

The electronic structures, optoelectronic properties and absorption spectra of molecular donors are calculated by using time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT). The studied molecules demonstrate good properties with low energy gap, small exciton binding energy, high open circuit voltage and broad absorption spectrum. The molecular donor (MD5) is identified as the promising candidate of the organic solar cell because of the most enhanced in optical absorption, energy gap, open circuit voltage, energy driving force, exciton binding energy. © 2021, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.azulene molecule; optoelectronic properties; organic solar cells; TD-DFTScharber, M.C., (2016) Adv.

Load-deflection curves, modes of failure and the pattern of the cracks are studied. Also, the influence of compression strength of concrete, the configuration of CFRP (U shape and 2 side bond shape) and shear span to depth ratio (a/h ratio). The results show that the shear capacity of RC beams strengthened by CFRP increased by a maximum percentage of up to 111.7% compared to the unstrengthened beam. Also, it is found that by increasing the compressive strength of concrete from 40 MPa to 65 MPa the load-carrying capacity increases by 28% and the stiffness also increased, while the decrease of shear span to depth ratio from 1.66 to 2.33 leads to increasing the shear capacity by 23%. The maximum load of beam strengthened with U shape increased by up to11.5% when compared with the same beam strengthened with two side bond shapes of CFRP. However, the gain in the strength was reached to 22.7% for beams strengthened with CFRP laminate compare to unstrengthened beams. The strengthening of RC beams by CFRP laminates using the near surface mounted (NSM) technique is more efficient than the externally bonded reinforcement (EBR) technique for all beams in the shear behavior. The finite element models provide a good level of accuracy compared to experimental results and ACI-440. © 2021 Potificia Universidad Catolica de Chile.

Strength reduction of UHPCs may amount to as high as 80 percent after exposure to 800?. A sum of four UHSC mixes was synthesized and evaluated in this study after getting exposed to extreme temperatures that reach 1000°C. Steel and polypropylene (PP) fibers were used in this experiment. A total of four mixes were made of UHSC without fibres as a control mix (UHSC-0), UHSC with 2% steel fibres (UHSC-S), UHSC with 2% PP fibres (UHSC-P) and UHSC with 1% steel fibres + 1% PP fibres (UHSC-SP). Workability, direct tensile strength, compressive strength, and splitting tensile strength were examined. Particularly, emphasis was devoted to explosive spalling since UHPCs are typically of compact structure and hence more prone to explosive spalling than other concretes. It was determined that the mixture UHSC-SP had high fire resistance. Following exposure to 1000?, this mixture preserved a residual compressive strength of 36 MPa, splitting tensile strength of 1.62 MPa and direct tensile strength of 0.8 MPa. On the other hand, UHSC-P also had good fire resistance while UHSC-0 and UHSC-S experienced explosive spalling after heating above 200?C. The incorporation of steel fibers in UHSC-S and UHSC-SP mixtures reveals higher tensile and compressive strength findings at different elevated temperatures as compared to UHSC-0 and UHSC-P. In addition, the result of direct tensile strength appears to be lower than splitting tensile strength at different raised temperatures. © 2021 Lavoisier.

Iron deficiency anemia is the most common cause of anemia in the world. This experiment was designed to estimate and compare the levels of Hb, iron, Ferritin, vitamin B12 and vitamin C in Iron deficiency anemia patients and in apparently healthier individuals. Blood Hb, iron, Ferritin, vitamin B12 and vitamin C levels were determined in 50 patients with Iron deficiency anemia and 45 apparently healthy subjects. The levels of Hb, iron, Ferritin, vitamin B12 and vitamin C were showing a significant decrease in patients with iron deficiency anemia in comparison to the control group (P < 0.05). However, we compared all measurement parameters according to the type of disease. In Iron deficiency anemia patients, we finding decrease Hb, iron, Ferritin, vitamin B12 and vitamin C can clearly occur. © 2021.

Coronary artery disorders (CAD), such as angina and myocardial infarction, are examples of CVD. This study aims to investigate human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) in patients with heart diseases. A total of 100 patients with cardiovascular disorders including males and females were chosen from Specialist Nasiriyah Center for Heart Diseases. In addition to 50 healthy individuals as control group. Five milliliters of venous blood were collected from patients and control then divided into two parts, one part collected in gel tubes for serum collection and perform some of biochemical and serological examinations, the another part collected in EDTA tube for viral DNA extraction and real-time PCR. The results of ELISA showed that anti-HCMV-IgM antibody was positive in 24 (24%) of heart diseases patients and (0%) in control, while anti-HCMV-IgG antibody was positive in 100 (100%) of heart diseases patients and control. The results of real time PCR revealed that A total of 100 (100%) of heart diseases patients was negative. There was an evidence an acute phase of infection with HCMV in the patients with heart diseases, although absence of viral DNA from blood sample, but this did not rule out the risk of HCMV infection on heart disease patients. However, the contradictory results about the role of HCMV infection in worsening of consequences of heart disease patients need more studies and investigations. © 2021.

The microstructural evolution and mechanical properties were analyzed by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), optical microscopy (OM), a scanning electron microscope (SEM) equipped with (EDX) and (EBSD) systems, microhardness, nanoindentation, and tensile testing. The results showed that the Ti64-2%HA composite components exhibited complicated manufacturing behavior, which could be correlated with the decomposition of HA. The microstructure was found to mainly consist of α Ti with a small amount of HA distributed along grain boundaries. Furthermore, the interaction between Ti64 and HA leading to the formation of Ti3P, TixO, P, and CaTiO3 phases, resulted in poor tensile properties, as compared to pure Ti64 components. Conversely, the tensile properties of SLM Ti64-2%HA composite components were significantly higher than human bone reported previously in the literature. © 2021 by the authors.

The main part of generated energy is consumed by cooling and heating systems. One of the well-known approaches to implemented heating and cooling system is earth to air heat exchanger (EAHE) system. This system is effective passive heating and cooling systems which can be used with poultry houses and building. This research studies numerically the effect of mass flow rate on the overall performance of earth to air HE for poultry houses. Four parameters (mass flow rate, required rate, required cooling load and pipe lengths) are selected under environment of Nasiriyah city (a city located in the south of Iraq). The study is conducted using PVC material. The study has been done during summer season. The suggested numerical model has been tested and validated using existing approaches selected from literature review papers. This test shows good agreement with results of selected papers. Moreover, validation and simulation results showed that the required cooling load increased with increasing mass flow rate. Also, with the increasing length of pipe of EAHE, the inflow temperature compared to the space temperature is decreased. However, the overall performance factor of EAHEs decreases by the increase of length of pipe and mass flow rate. Which indicate the possibility of using the earth to air heat exchanger for cooling and heating poultry houses and reduce the use of electrical energy. © 2021.

In the current study, the removal efficiency of Cd (II) and Ni(II) from aqueous solution was investigated by carbonaceous magnesium oxide. Three types of C-MgO adsorbents were synthesized via pyrolysis of prepared magnesium complex Mg(acac)2 at three temperatures. Fabricated C-MgO adsorbents were characterized by XRD, SEM, and BET. XRD results revealed that the synthesized adsorbents consist of only magnesium oxide and carbon phase without any impurities. SEM technique used to characterizes the surface morphology of C-MgO samples. N2 adsorption-desorption isotherm used to calculate the BET surface area of prepared samples. The SEM results had a good agreement with BET measurement which improved that the high temperature increase the particles size and reduce the surface area. The adsorption studies showed that the carbonaceous magnesium oxides have good removal effeciency for Cd (II) and Ni(II) removal from aqueous solution and kinetically follow the pseudo-second order model. © 2021 National Information and Documentation Center.Adsorption; Effeciency; Isotherm; Langmuir; NanoparticlesThabet, W., Ahmed, S.

The parameters under study are the frequency and coupling interaction on the electric current, the rectifying ratios, and the electrical conductance. Depending on the frequency value, the current rectifying ratio increase slightly between coupling interactions. The electromagnetic field causes reducing the conductance gap and increasing the amplitude of the electric current. The electromagnetic field controls the position, height, and width of conductance peaks. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.Current rectifying ratio; Double quantum dot; Photon-assisted electron transport properties; T-shaped structureElectric conductivity; Electromagnetic fields; Electron transport properties; Nanocrystals; Quantum chemistry; Conductance gap; Conductance peaks; Coupling interaction; Donor and acceptor; Double quantum dots; Electrical conductance; Electromagnetic field control; Electron transport; Semiconductor quantum dotsAbbas, M.A., Hanoon, F.H., Al-Badry, L.F., Theoretical study of electron transport throughout some molecular structures (2017) Superlattices Microstruct., 111, pp. 273-285; Abdullah, N.R., Tang, C.-S., Manolescu, A., Gudmundsson, V., Delocalization of electrons by cavity photons in transport through a quantum dot molecule (2014) Phys.

Consequently, the exact expressions and asymptotic approximations at high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regime of the moment generating function (MGF) and probability density function (PDF) of the maximum of non-identical FTR variates are provided. To this effect, mathematically tractable expressions of the outage probability (OP), outage capacity (OC), average bit error probability (ABEP), and average channel capacity (ACC) are derived. The truncation of the infinite series of the cumulative distribution function (CDF) for a specific number of terms is also given. A comparison between the numerical and simulated results is performed to verify the validation of our analysis. © 1997-2012 IEEE.average bit error probability; fluctuating two-ray; outage capacity; outage probability; Selection combiningBit error rate; Distribution functions; Fading channels; Millimeter waves; Probability density function; Signal receivers; Asymptotic approximation; Average bit error probability; Average channel capacities; Cumulative distribution function; High signalto-noise ratios (SNR); Millimeter waves (mmwave); Moment generating function; Probability density function (pdf); Signal to noise ratioRappaport, T.S., Millimeter wave mobile communications for 5G cellular: It will work!

Scope and approach: Natural compounds present in herbs- and spices-derived extracts, essential oils and other secondary metabolites from plants, bacteria and enzymes are currently gaining ground and are still largely underused. Their use as replacements for synthetic additives can open new frontiers in safety and quality preservation in food, as they are relatively safer and do not pose health risks to consumers. This review provides updated information on the use of preservative solutions from natural sources on foods, especially perishable ones, also discussing the use of new packaging technologies. Key findings and conclusions: Although the use of additive sources of natural origin has received increasing interest, some adverse effects on organoleptic properties may also result from its use. Thus, despite the latest advances, more studies are still needed on the optimization of the quantities to be used to effectively inhibit spoilage and pathogenic microorganisms without affecting the organoleptic properties of foods; otherwise, these natural food additives can be encapsulated for inclusion in foods as preservatives. © 2021 Elsevier LtdAntimicrobial compounds; Chemical preservative; Food preservation; Food safetyHorizon 2020 Framework Programme, H2020: PTDC/PSI-GER/28076/2017; Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia, FCTN.M. acknowledges the Portuguese Foundation for Science and Technology under the Horizon 2020 Program (PTDC/PSI-GER/28076/2017).Agriopoulou, S., Stamatelopoulou, E., Sachadyn-Król, M., Varzakas, T., Lactic acid bacteria as antibacterial agents to extend the shelf life of fresh and minimally processed fruits and vegetables: Quality and safety aspects (2020) Microorganisms, 8 (6), p. 952;

The obtained results by both presented methods (the LFRDTM and the LFLVIM) are compared together. The results clearly show that those suggested algorithms are suitable and effective to handle linear and as well as nonlinear problems in engineering and sciences. © 2021 The Author(s).Coupled Korteweg-De Vries Equation; Laplace Variational Iteration Method; Local Fractional Derivative Operators; Reduced Differential Transform MethodIterative methods; Approximate solution; Coupled KdV equations; Differential transform; Local fractional derivatives; Nonlinear problems; Variational iteration method; Korteweg-de Vries equationNational Natural Science Foundation of China, NSFC: 11601485, 11626101, 11701176, 11871202, 11971142, 61673169The research was supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (Grant Nos. 11971142, 11871202, 61673169, 11701176, 11626101 and 11601485).Wazwaz, A.

Let G = (V,E) be a finite, simple, and undirected graph without isolated vertex. A dominating subset D aS V (G) is a total pitchfork dominating set if 1 ≤|N(u) a V - D|≤ 2 for every u D and G[D] has no isolated vertex. D-1 aS V - D is an inverse total pitchfork dominating set if D-1 is a total pitchfork dominating set of G. The cardinality of a minimum (inverse) total pitchfork dominating set is the (inverse) total pitchfork domination number (γpf-t(G)) γpft(G). Some properties and bounds are studied associated with maximum degree, minimum degree, order, and size of the graph. These modified domination parameters are applied on some standard and complement graphs. © 2021 World Scientific Publishing Company.inverse total pitchfork domination; pitchfork domination; total domination; Total pitchfork dominationAnu, V., Aparna Lakshmanan, S., The Double Roman Domination Number of Generalized Sierpinski Graphs Discrete Math, Algorithms and Application, , (accepted); Balakrishnan, R., Ranganathan, K., (1999) A Text Book of Graph Theory, , (Springer, New York); Chellai, M., Haynes, T.

The scientific impact of the current work has been improved considering the features of Sabalan flash-binary geothermal wells in Iran as a real model through a case study. In addition to designing a novel setup, the smart use of multi-heat recovery technique, modifying the base cycle, and utilizing a part of generated distilled water to produce hydrogen by the electrolyzer are the other structural originalities, distinguishing the current work from the previous studies. The suggested system is scrutinized via a parametric study and optimized based on a genetic algorithm. The parametric study demonstrated that the highest sensitivity of varying the performance criteria of the whole system is attributed to the change in flash tank pressure. Moreover, the multi-objective optimization led to achieving the exergy efficiency and trigeneration gain output ratio as 51.3% and 1.7 for the system, respectively. Furthermore, the system was able to produce 4795 kW of power, 5.3 kg/h of hydrogen, and 19.9 kg/s of distilled water. © 2021 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLCFeasibility analysis; Low-temperature water electrolysis; Multi-heat recovery; Multi-objective optimization; Reverse osmosis desalination; Sabalan flash-binary geothermal wellsDesalination; Electrolysis; Genetic algorithms; Geothermal fields; Geothermal power plants; Hydrogen production; Multiobjective optimization; Reverse osmosis; Waste heat; 'current; Case-studies; Distilled water; Feasibility analysis; Low-temperature water electrolyse; Multi-heat recovery; Multi-objectives optimization; Power; Reverse osmosis desalination; Sabalan flash-binary geothermal well; TemperatureHan, X., Chen, N., Yan, J., Liu, J., Liu, M., Karellas, S., Thermodynamic analysis and life cycle assessment of supercritical pulverized coal-fired power plant integrated with No. 0 feedwater pre-heater under partial loads (2019) J Clean Prod, 233, pp. 1106-1122; Rogalev, A., Grigoriev, E., Kindra, V., Rogalev, N., Thermodynamic optimization and equipment development for a high efficient fossil fuel power plant with zero emissions (2019) J Clean Prod, 236, p. 117592; Yu, D., Mao, Y., Gu, B., Nojavan, S., Jermsittiparsert, K., Nasseri, M., A new LQG optimal control strategy applied on a hybrid wind turbine/solid oxide fuel cell/in the presence of the interval uncertainties (2020) Sustain.

In this situation, the interfaces may expand, shrink or remain stationary relying on the competition between these two factors. In this paper, we concentrate on three regions to classify the behavior of local solutions near the asymptotic interface in the irregular domain. In the first and second regions, the slow diffusion dominates over the convection term with expanding interfaces under some restrictions. In the third region, the slow diffusion dominates over the convection, but the interfaces have a waiting time. In our proof, the rescaling method and blow-up techniques are applied. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Laplace transforms; Convection coefficients; Diffusion equations; Diffusion-convection; Irregular domains; Non negatives; Rescaling method; Slow diffusion; Weak solution; DiffusionAal-Rkhais, H.

In this paper, the newly technique of hybrid particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is proposed. This technique is a dynamic and static topology with a PSO algorithm, which called dynamic and static PSO (DS-PSO) algorithm. In the simulation, the low-pass IIR digital filter 8th order is designed. The fitness function problem is discussed based on values of the ripple of the passband, a ripple of the stopband, and a transition band. Thus, the proposed algorithm results are compared with previous studies results. From results comparison, results have shown the convergence rate with the DS-PSO algorithm outperformed the convergence rates using fuzzy gravitational search algorithm (FGSA), gravitational search algorithm (GSA), and differential evolution (DE) with mean values of 55.21%, 57.80%, and 70.40%, respectively. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Adaptive filter; Fitness function; Optimization Algorithm; Particle Swarm Optimization; Signal ProcessingDynamics; IIR filters; Impulse response; Learning algorithms; Particle swarm optimization (PSO); Convergence rates; Differential Evolution; Gravitational search algorithm (GSA); Gravitational search algorithms; Hybrid optimization; Hybrid Particle Swarm Optimization; IIR digital filters; Infinite-impulse response digital filters; Low pass filtersDash, J., Dam, B., Swain, R., Improved firefly algorithm based optimal design of special signal blocking IIR filters (2020) Meas.

However, in complex and heterogeneous systems, certain devices need to trust each other. In this paper, we present an approach that is combined of two lines of defense to help build trust in IoT scenarios and to provide more secure interaction. The paper presents a precisely engineered ontology that serves as the main knowledge base for the definition and semantic registration for the entities within the IoT perimeter to facilitate their automated deployment. We show, in this paper, how trust can be used as a pre-defense step for authorization in flexible and an adaptive manner using semantic web technologies. We develop a proof of concept implementation and give the complexity analysis for our approach. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Knowledge based systems; Network security; Complexity analysis; Heterogeneous systems; Knowledge base; Proof of concept; Secure interactions; Semantic Web technology; Two-line; Internet of thingsPatel, KK, Patel, SM, Scholar, PG., Internet of Things-IOT: Definition, Characteristics, Architecture, Enabling Technologies (2016) Application & Future Challenges Int J Eng Sci Comput [Internet], 6, pp. 1-10. , http://ijesc.org; Gubbi, J, Buyya, R, Marusic, S, Palaniswami, M., Internet of Things (IoT): A vision, architectural elements, and future directions (2013) Futur Gener Comput Syst, 29, pp. 1645-1660; Singh, A., Internet of Things and Trust Management in Iot-Review (2016) PdfsSemanticscholarOrg, pp. 761-767. , https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/d351/97c59620aca36a29599cb5916cfe587fe743.pdf, [Internet]; Mendoza, CVL, Kleinschmidt, JH., Mitigating on-off attacks in the internet of things using a distributed trust management scheme (2015) Int J Distrib Sens Networks, 2015. , https://doi.org/10.1155/2015/859731, [Internet]; Caminha, J, Perkusich, A, Perkusich, M., (2018) IEEE Int Conf Consum Electron ICCE 2018 A smart middleware to detect on-off trust attacks in the Internet of Things, pp. 1-2. , 2018; Ben Saied, Y, Olivereau, A, Zeghlache, D, Laurent, M., Trust management system design for the Internet of Things: A context-aware and multi-service approach (2013) Comput Secur, 39, pp. 351-365. , http://dx.doi.oig/10.1016/j.cose.2013.09.001, [Internet] PART B; Chen, D, Chang, G, Sun, D, Li, J, Jia, J, Wang, X., TRM-IoT: A trust management model based on fuzzy reputation for internet of things (2011) Comput Sci Inf Syst, 8, pp. 1207-1228; Al-johani, AA, Youssef, AE., (2013) F Ramework F or 3 1-14; Kagal, L, Jacobi, I, Khandelwal, A., (2011) MIT CSAIL Tech Reports, , Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory Technical Report Gasping for AIR Why we need Linked Rules and Justifications on the Semantic Web Gasping for AIR-Why we need Linked Rules and Justifications on the Semantic Web; Kagal, L, Jacobi, I, Khandelwal, A., (2010) From Truth Maintenance to Trust Management on the Semantic Web MIT Techinical Rep, p. 04281; Lavbič, D, Žitnik, S, Šubelj, L, Kumer, A, Zmec, A, Bajec, M., 2013 Traversal and relations discovery among business entities and people using semantic web technologies and trust management Front Artif Intell Appl, 249, pp. 164-174. , May 2014; Meena Kowshalya, A, Valarmathi, ML, Dynamic trust management for secure communications in social internet of things (SIoT) (2018) Sadhana-Acad Proc Eng Sci, 43, pp. 1-8. , https://doi.org/10.1007/s12046-018-0885-z, [Internet]; Esposito, C, Castiglione, A, Palmieri, F, Ficco, M., Trust management for distributed heterogeneous systems by using linguistic term sets and hierarchies, aggregation operators and mechanism design (2017) Futur Gener Comput Syst, 74, pp. 325-336; (2018), ICITST WorldCIS WCST WCICSS; Abdul-Rahman, A, Halles, S., A distributed trust model (1998) Proc New Secur Paradig Work, pp. 48-60. , Part F129303; Kotis, K, Vouros, GA., (2016) Trust Semantics in IoT Entities' Deployment Artif Intell Internet Things Hell Conf Artif Intell; Fernandez-Gago, C, Moyano, F, Lopez, J., Modelling trust dynamics in the Internet of Things (2017) Inf Sci (Ny), 396, pp. 72-82. , http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.ins.2017.02.039, [Internet]Obaid A.J.Hasan I.A.Mohi A.T.Albermany S.Pal S.Kautish S.Banerjee J.S.IOP Publishing Ltd2nd International Conference on Physics and Applied Sciences, ICPAS 202126 May 2021 through 27 May 202117083517426588EnglishJ.

The increasing incidence of WB over the last several years indicates a need for improved prediction or early diagnosis. We hypothesized that the use of body fluids, including blood, may be more suitable than breast muscle tissue in developing a minimally invasive diagnostic tool for WB detection. To identify potential early-age-biomarkers that may represent the potential onset of WB, blood samples were collected from 100, 4 wks old commercial male broilers. At 8 wks of age, WB conditions were scored by manual palpation. A total of 32 blood plasma samples (eight for each group of WB and non-WB control birds at two time points, 4 wks and 8 wks) were subjected to shotgun proteomics and untargeted metabolomics to identify differentially abundant plasma proteins and metabolites in WB broilers compared to non-WB control (Con) broilers. From the proteomics assay, 25 and 16 plasma proteins were differentially abundant (p < 0.05) in the 4 and 8 wks old samples, respectively, in WB compared with Con broilers. Of those, FRA10A associated CGG repeat 1 (FRAG10AC1) showed >2-fold higher abundance in WB compared with controls. In the 8 wks old broilers, 4 and 12 plasma proteins displayed higher and lower abundances, respectively, in WB compared with controls. Myosin heavy chain 9 (MYH9) and lipopolysaccharide binding protein (LBP) showed more than 2-fold higher abundances in WB compared with controls, while transferrin (TF) and complement C1s (C1S) showed more than 2-fold lower abundances compared with controls. From the untargeted metabolomics assay, 33 and 19 plasma metabolites were differentially abundant in birds at 4 and 8 wks of age, respectively, in WB compared with controls. In 4 wks old broilers, plasma 3-hydroxybutyric acid (3-HB) and raffinose concentrations showed the highest and lowest fold changes, respectively, in WB compared with controls. The blood plasma 3-HB and raffinose concentrations were confirmed with targeted biochemical assays. Blood biomarkers, such as 3-HB and raffinose, may be suitable candidate targets in the prediction of WB onset at early ages. © Copyright © 2021 Kong, Khatri, Kang, Shouse, Kadhim, Kidd, Lassiter, Hiltz, Mallmann, Orlowski, Anthony, Bottje, Kuenzel and Owens.biomarker; blood plasma; metabolomics; proteomics; woody breastArkansas Biosciences Institute, ABIThis work was supported by Arkansas Biosciences Institute (Little Rock, AR) and the Agricultural Experiment Station (Univ. of Arkansas, Fayetteville).Abasht, B., Mutryn, M.F., Michalek, R.D., Lee, W.R., Oxidative stress and metabolic perturbations in wooden breast disorder in chickens (2016) PLoS ONE, 11, p. e0153750. , 27097013; Abasht, B., Zhou, N., Lee, W.R., Zhuo, Z., Peripolli, E., The metabolic characteristics of susceptibility to wooden breast disease in chickens with high feed efficiency (2019) Poult.

The water samples and sediments were collected monthly from the river. The results show two species of (Oligochaeta: Branchiura sowerbyi, Limnodrilus hoffmeisteri) along with new species of (Polychaeta; Namalycastis indica) that appeared at the southeast of the city Al-Nassiriyah (Ur sub district) in December 2018 only. The population densities of worms varied significantly, the total population density of Oligochaeta was maximum at second station (454 individual m-2) and minimum in third station (7 individual m-2) with no significant differences in three stations. The results of the present study showed that there was a significant difference in density population between second station and both first station and third station. © 2021 Ecological Society of India.

They serve as cellular anchor, allowing cells to stay attached to the extracellular matrix (ECM), and can also regulate cellular transduction. Previously, it has been suggested that vesicles such as endosomes could interact directly with FA or be implicated in their turnover. In this study, we investigated whether there is a relationship between FA and the early endocytic machinery in MDA-MB-231 cells. Methods: In this study, cell culture, transfection, time laps confocal microscopies, immunocytochemistry, western blotting, Cell fractionation and immunoprecipitation techniques were performed. Results: Cells acutely treated with Dynasore, an inhibitor of dynamin, or with Pitstop 2, an inhibitor of clathryn-dependent endocytosis showed a reduction in the expression of early endosome biomarkers such as Rab5 and EEA1. Additionally, cells treated with these endocytic inhibitors exhibited an increase number and size of FA, as well as an increase FA turnover duration. This data was consistent with the reduction of the speed of cell migration. We demonstrated that Rab5- and EEA1-positive early endosomes were found to be colocalized with internalized FA. Conclusions: The present study suggests that there is a link between FA and early endosome markers, which indicates that the early endosomes may be involved in FA dynamics. © 2021, Reports of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, All Rights Reserved.Cell migration;

The study was achieved by measurement of air and water temperature, pH, and salinity, as well as the measurement of the concentration of some heavy elements (Cd, Pb, Ni, and Cu) in both dissolved and particulate phases in water and an exchangeable and residual phase in sediments and the tissues of two aquatic plants species, Ceratophyllum demersum L. and Phragmatis australis (Can.). The mean concentrations of the heavy elements (Cd, Pb, Ni, and Cu) in the dissolved phase in water were (0.07, 1.19, 3.17, and 0.03μg/l) respectively, while their concentration in the particulate phase was (15.73, 24.71, 65.63 and 22.86 μg/g) respectively. The mean concentrations of the heavy metals in sediments in an exchangeable phase were 15.73, 24.71, 65.63, and 22.86 (μg/g), respectively, while in the residual phase were 0.07, 0.85, 74.62, and 14.00 (μg/g) respectively. Results confirmed increased mean concentrations of heavy metals in aquatic plants tissues compared to their means in water. The maximum mean of heavy metals was recorded in Ceratophyllum demersum L. The Bioconcentration factor (B.C.F) values were more than their values of Biosedimentation factor (B.S.F) in all aquatic species. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Aquatic plants; Bioconcentration factor; Biosedimentation factor.; Heavy metals; Sediments; WaterHeavy metals; Histology; Particles (particulate matter); Planning; Rivers; Sediments; Sustainable development; Tissue; Aquatic species; Bio-concentration factors; Ceratophyllum demersum; Heavy elements; Mean concentrations; Particulate phasis; Residual phase; Water temperatures; River pollutionNuha, J A, Maktoof, A A, Alyaa, A H, Bioaccumulation of some heavy elements in tissue of Cotugnia polycantha and two parasites (Raillietina tetraagona and Streptopellia senegalensis) infected with birds (2020) Eurasia J.

Naturally, users have diverse opinions, and only trusting user ratings of products may produce inaccurate recom-mendations. Therefore, it is essential to offer a new similarity measure that enhances recommendation accuracy, even for customers who only leave a few ratings. Thus, this article proposes an algorithm for user similarity measures that exploit item genre information to make more accurate rec-ommendations. This algorithm measures the relationship between users using item genre infor-mation, discovers the active user’s nearest neighbors in each genre, and finds the final nearest neighbors list who can share with them the same preference in a genre. Finally, it predicts the active-user rating of items using a definite prediction procedure. To measure the accuracy, we propose new evaluation criteria: the rating level and reliability among users, according to rating level. We implement the proposed method on real datasets. The empirical results clarify that the proposed algorithm produces a predicted rating accuracy, rating level, and reliability between users, which are better than many existing collaborative filtering algorithms. © 2021 by the authors.

Hydrogen peroxide was the oxygen source. All the experiments were carried out at 25 MPa and a range of temperatures from 425-525 ºC. The residence times range from 6 s to 14 s. Results were presented in terms of total organic carbon (TOC) as a function of time with various process parameters. The findings support the positive effect that propylene glycol has on the destruction of 3-methylpyridine, where TOC removal is ≥ 97.5% at 525 ºC and 14 s. The maximum TOC removal efficiency is 93% at 425 ºC, 14 s, and the [propylene glycol]/[3-methylpyridine]o ratio of 3. The removal efficiency of nitrogen in the presence of propylene glycol reaches 89% at 525 ºC and 10 s. The oxidant ratio also has a positive effect on the removal of TOC in the three systems. Addition of propylene glycol causes a significant development in the ratio at 425 ºC, more so than when isopropyl alcohol was added. This is due to two hydroxyl groups in propylene glycol oxidation that enhance the reaction by generating various free radicals. © 2021 Chemical Publishing Co..

The exact expression and the asymptotic behaviour at high average signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regime of the fundamental statistics of a MGS distribution are derived first. These statistics are then applied to analyze the performance of the wireless communication systems over double shadowed $\kappa$-$\mu$ fading channels. In particular, the outage probability (OP), average bit error probability (ABEP), average channel capacity (ACC), effective capacity (EC) and average area under the receiver operating characteristics curve (AUC) of energy detection (ED) are provided. The numerical and simulation results as well as a comparison with previous exact works are presented to verify the validation of our analysis. © 1967-2012 IEEE.average bit error probability; capacity analysis; double shadowed κ-μ fading; Mixture Gamma shadowedBit error rate; Fading channels; Signal receivers; Asymptotic behaviour; Average bit error probability; Average channel capacities; Composite distributions; Effective capacity; Outage probability; Receiver operating characteristics; Wireless communication system; Signal to noise ratioSimon, M.K., Alouini, M.-S., (2005) Digital Communications over Fading Channels, , New York, NY, USA: Wiley; Yacoub, M.D., The distribution and the distribution (2007) IEEE Antennas Propag.

The obstacle height ratio (hr) of 0.125, 0.25 and 0.5 and helix pitch ratio (y) of 3, 5 and 10 were tested through the present effort. The fluid was air and it flowed with range of Reynolds number of 4000 ≤ Re ≤ 10,000 and the tube was under constant heat flux. ANSYS 17.1 was used and transition SST model was chosen to solve the problem. There is a significant increase in Nusselt number, friction factor and thermal performance factor was noticed as height ratio increased or helix pitch ratio decreased. All the obtained thermal performance factor from the studied cases were more than 1 and the higher one was 2.12 which obtained at hr and y of 0.5 and 3 respectively. © 2021 Elsevier LtdHelical obstacle; Helix pitch ratio; Thermal performance factorAir; Heat transfer; Reynolds number; Field of flow; Heat transfer and flows; Height ratio; Helical obstacle; Helix pitch; Helix pitch ratio; Hydrodynamic field; Pitch ratio; Thermal field; Thermal performance factors; Heat fluxAl-Fahed, S., Chakroun, W., Effect of tube-tape clearance on heat transfer for fully developed turbulent flow in a horizontal isothermal tube (1996) Int.

The purpose of this study is to synthesize PO coated iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4@PO NPs) and their anti-leishmanial effects in vitro and in vivo against cutaneous leishmaniasis. Methods: Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles were synthesized by the coprecipitation of Fe2 + and Fe3 + ions and used as a nanocarrier for the production of Fe3O4@PO NPs. The in vitro antileishmanial effects of PO-coated Fe3O4 NPs and Fe3O4 NPs (10–200 µg/mL) was determined against the intracellular amastigotes of Leishmania major (MRHO/IR/75/ER) and, then, examined on cutaneous leishmaniasis induced in male BALB/c mice by L. major. The rate of infectivity, production of nitric oxide (NO), and cytotoxic activates of Fe3O4 NPs and Fe3O4@PO NPs on J774-A1 macrophage cells were determined. Results: The size scattering of the Fe3O4 NPs and Fe3O4@PO NPs were in the range among 1–40 and 5–55 nm, respectively. The obtained IC50 values were 62.3 ± 2.15 μg/mL, 31.3 ± 2.26 μg/mL, and 52.6 ± 2.15 μg/mL for the Fe3O4 NPs and Fe3O4@PO NPs, and MA, respectively. The results revealed that the mean number of parasites and the mean diameter of the lesions was considerably (p < 0.05) decreased in the infected mice treated with Fe3O4 NPs and Fe3O4@PO NPs. The Fe3O4 NPs and Fe3O4@PO NPs significantly (p < 0.05) prompted the production of NO as a dose-dependent manner. The promastigotes pre-incubated in Fe3O4 NPs and Fe3O4@PO NPs at the concentration of 5 µg/mL had the ability to infect only 41.7% and 28.3% of the macrophages cells. The selectivity index of greater than 10 for Fe3O4 NPs and Fe3O4@PO NPs showed its safety to the J774-A1 macrophage cells and specificity to the parasite. Conclusion: The results of this survey indicated the high potency of Fe3O4@PO NPs to inhibit the growth of amastigote forms of L. major as well as recovery and improvement CL induced by L. major in BALB/c mice without significant cytotoxicity. The results also indicated that, although the possible anti-leishmanial mechanisms of Fe3O4@PO NPs have not been clearly understood, however, the triggering of NO may be considered as one of the possible anti-leishmanial mechanisms of these nanoparticles. However, additional studies, in particular in clinical contexts, are mandatory. © 2021 The AuthorsAmastigote; Cytotoxicity; In vitro; In vivo; Leishmania major; Nitric oxideferric ion; ferrous ion; iron oxide; magnetic nanoparticle; magnetite; nanocarrier; nitric oxide; piroctone ethanolamine; antiprotozoal agent; dipyrone; drug carrier; ethanolamine derivative; magnetite; magnetite nanoparticle; nitric oxide; piroctone ethanolamine; amastigote; animal cell; animal experiment; animal model; antileishmanial activity; Article; cell membrane permeability; concentration (parameter); controlled study; cutaneous leishmaniasis; dose response; drug cytotoxicity; drug potency; drug synthesis; IC50; in vitro study; in vivo study; infection rate; Leishmania major; macrophage; male; mouse; nonhuman; particle size; precipitation; priority journal; promastigote; selectivity index; animal; Bagg albino mouse; biosynthesis; cell line; chemistry; drug combination; drug effect; parasitology; skin leishmaniasis; Animals; Antiprotozoal Agents; Cell Line; Dose-Response Relationship, Drug; Drug Carriers; Drug Combinations; Ethanolamines; Ferrosoferric Oxide; Leishmania major; Leishmaniasis, Cutaneous; Macrophages; Magnetite Nanoparticles; Male; Mice; Mice, Inbred BALB C; Nitric Oxide; Pyridonesferric ion, 20074-52-6; ferrous ion, 15438-31-0; iron oxide, 1332-37-2; magnetite, 1309-38-2, 1317-61-9; nitric oxide, 10102-43-9; piroctone ethanolamine, 68890-66-4; dipyrone, 50567-35-6, 5907-38-0, 68-89-3; Antiprotozoal Agents; Drug Carriers; Drug Combinations; Ethanolamines; Ferrosoferric Oxide; Magnetite Nanoparticles; Nitric Oxide; piroctone olamine; PyridonesTorres-Guerrero, E., Quintanilla-Cedillo, M.R., Ruiz-Esmenjaud, J., Arenas, R., Leishmaniasis: a review (2017) F1000Research, 6, p. 750; Scorza, B.M., Carvalho, E.M., Wilson, M.E., Cutaneous manifestations of human and murine leishmaniasis (2017) Int.

Some parts which lose their dimensional tolerance during use need repair and refurbishment when replacement is avoidable at a high cost. Due to oscillatory vibration action, the compressor blades' dovetail roots are subject to fatigue. The compressor case comes into contact with rotating blades, causing blade damage due to a misalignment shaft, case ovality, or inadequate clearance. Using various contact surfaces undergoing spinning and joint movement takes place during the operation of the turbine. Rotating and stationary parts in the hot sector need a higher working temperature thermal insulation, enhancing the turbine's thermodynamic performance. The application of various coatings that protect the components from failure meets this broad range of functional motor requirements. In terms of not seeking a more in-depth perspective into the field of steam turbine coating, the present review describes the specifics of these coatings at a single stage, application and characterization approaches, and indicative potential directions that are useful to an industrial engineer. © 2021 Zibeline International Publishing Sdn.

Ten samples were collected, where five samples from both sand dunes, and valley sediments. Grain size analysis revealed that sand, silt and clay fractions are the constituents of these sediments. Sand fractions predominant in the dunes and the texture is classified as silty sand, whereas clay fractions dominate in the valley sediments, with sandy clay texture. The mineralogy is determined by X-ray diffraction, which revealed that quartz is the main mineral in both study areas, followed by calcite, feldspars in lesser amount and evaporates (gypsum) in minor component of the light minerals. Petrographically, monocrystalline quartz dominates over polycrystalline quartz in both areas. Rock fragments in the valley sediments are higher than in the sand dunes, which are comprised of carbonate, chert, igneous, metamorphic, evaporate, and mudstone rock fragments. Feldspars are approximately similar in the study areas and comprised mainly alkali feldspar (potash feldspar) and plagioclase. Petrogenically, the sand dunes occupy the quartzose-recycled field, while the valley sediments fall in transitional recycled fields represented recycled orogeny. © 2021, Union of Iraqi Geoogists.

Focal adhesions (FA) are local regions of plasma membrane consisting of multiprotein complexes providing adhesive contact between the cell and the extracellular matrix (ECM). FA turnover regulates different signalling pathways implicated in various cellular responses (e.g. cell migration). Endocytosis, specifically the dynamin and clathrin pathways, is known to regulate cell migration by modulating FA dynamics. In this study, we investigated whether NO activity regulates cell migration, FA dynamics and early endosome trafficking in MDA-MB-231 cells. The assessment of cell migration showed a slowing down of cell migration and an increased duration of FA turnover in cells treated with inhibitors of NO synthase (NOS) such as L-NAME or 1400W. In addition, these treatments were found to exhibit no effect on transferrin and dextran uptake mediated by endocytosis and micropinocytosis, respectively. The number of early endosome antigen 1 (EEA1)-positive endosomes was reduced while their sizes were found to increase in cells treated with L-NAME or 1400W. In contrast, these inhibitors did not affect the number nor the size of Rab5-positive endosomes. Furthermore, we demonstrated that EEA1, endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) and inducible NO synthase (iNOS) were colocalised. Using the biotin switch assay followed by western blot, we showed that early endosome proteins such as APPL1, EEA1, Rab5 were found to be S-nitrosylated. These results were further supported by the sequence analysis performed with the GPS-SNO algorithm which predicted the S-nitrosylation of these endosomal proteins. Taken together, our findings suggest that NO might be involved in cell migration and FA turnover through early endosome trafficking in MDA-MB-231 cells.

The target of the current study is to propose and investigate a novel seasonal combined cycle driven by a biogas-fueled gas turbine from thermodynamic and economic viewpoints. Regarding the high-temperature of the turbine's exhaust gases, an integration of Rankine and ejector refrigeration cycles is configured. The bottoming cycle is designated for winter and summer conditions, independently. Hence, a combined cycle capable of operating as a cogeneration system producing electricity/heating or electricity/cooling, individually, is designed. Moreover, a parametric study based on assessing the impact of key parameters on the essential variables and a multi-criteria optimization trough a genetic algorithm are performed to attain the facilities of the proposal. According to the results, the capability of the whole system in winter conditions is significantly higher than that for summer conditions due to the higher heating capacity. Also, the evaluated variables are more affected by change in the environment temperature in both seasons. Additionally, the optimal overall energy, exergy and levilized cost of products are calculated as 79.2%%, 45.6%, and 21.7 $/GJ for summer and 70.7%, 37.0%, and 17.6 $/GJ for winter, respectively. © 2021 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLCBiogas;

The strain energy released when a fatigue crack advances has the effect of exciting acoustic waves, which travel through the structures and are picked up by the sensors. Piezoelectric wafer active sensors (PWAS) can effectively sense acoustic waves due to fatigue-crack growth. Conventional acoustic-wave passive SHM, which relies on counting the number of acoustic events, cannot precisely estimate the crack length. In the present research, a novel method for estimating the crack length was proposed based on the high-frequency resonances excited in the crack by the energy released when a crack advances. In this method, a PWAS sensor was used to sense the acoustic wave signal and predict the length of the crack that generated the acoustic event. First, FEM analysis was undertaken of acoustic waves generated due to a fatigue-crack growth event on an aluminum-2024 plate. The FEM analysis was used to predict the wave propagation pattern and the acoustic signal received by the PWAS mounted at a distance of 25 mm from the crack. The analysis was carried out for crack lengths of 4 and 8 mm. The presence of the crack produced scattering of the waves generated at the crack tip; this phenomenon was observable in the wave propagation pattern and in the acoustic signals recorded at the PWAS. A study of the signal frequency spectrum revealed peaks and valleys in the spectrum that changed in frequency and amplitude as the crack length was changed from 4 to 8 mm. The number of peaks and valleys was observed to increase as the crack length increased. We suggest this peak–valley pattern in the signal frequency spectrum can be used to determine the crack length from the acoustic signal alone. An experimental investigation was performed to record the acoustic signals in crack lengths of 4 and 8 mm, and the results were found to match well with the FEM predictions. © 2021 by the authors.

In this study, Au-doped tin oxide/carbon quantum dots (Au:SnO2/carbon quantum dots) nanocomposites was prepared via simple and friendly to the environment route. The obtained results from X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) analysis, photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL), and Ultra violet-Visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy showed the formation of the pure and regular shape of Au:SnO2/ carbon quantum dots. Then, prepared Au:SnO2/ carbon quantum dots was utilized for the testing of antibacterial activity using Aspergillus niger,, Bacillus subtilis, Candida albicans, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumonia, pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella paratyphi-A serotype, Shigella dysenteriae, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, and Streptococcus pyogenes. The modified sample showed significant improvement against tested bacteria. The best antibacterial activity was observed in Au:SnO2/ carbon quantum dots against pseudomonas aeruginosa with MIC values of 62.5 μg/ml. The obtained results demonstrate Au:SnO2/ carbon quantum dots nanocomposites are highly suitable as an antibacterial agent against both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. © This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License.Antibacterial;

And because of its effects, which are not limited to human life only, but rather in economic and social aspects, and because of the increase in daily injuries and significantly with the limited hospitals that cannot accommodate these large numbers, it is necessary to find an automatic and rapid detection method that limits the spread of the disease and its detection at an early stage in order to be treated more quickly. In this paper, deep learning was relied upon to create a CNN model to detect COVID-19 infected lungs using chest X-ray images. The base consists of a set of images taken of lungs infected with Covid-19 disease and normal lungs, as the CNN structure gave accuracy, Precision, Recall and F-Measure 100%. © 2021, Semnan University, Center of Excellence in Nonlinear Analysis and Applications.

Six types of cosmetic products of different origins are tested by taking equivalent quantities of these products and putting them in plastic boxes. The detector is left with the samples for a period of 50 days. In addition to measuring the rate of surface evaporation of radon gas, measurements of the annual equivalent dose of radon gas are also carried out. The results show that the highest concentration of radon gas is in Charcoal Facial SCRuB (American origin) and it is equal to 0.0795 Bq/m3, whereas the lowest one in "bb" cream basis (5 in 1) is equal to 0.0355 Bq/m3. Based on specific international organizations and agencies, the concentration of radon in the samples under consideration is within the acceptable limits. © 2021 Lavoisier.

Several ways have been discussed in which these resources could be invested by means of development projects for economic benefit, which represent a step towards the development of arid and semi-arid regions in Iraq, particularly in its southern deserts. The research showed that the basin is characterized by the existence of a proper water drainage network, thereby providing a sufficient amount of water to be invested in agriculture, in addition to the available groundwater reservoirs. The availability of such fertile soil leads to the growth of a wide range of natural vegetation, enabling large areas of the basin to be invested for grazing purposes. Rock diversity has proved to be significant in providing various minerals which could be invested in industry and construction. © 2021 Ecological Society of India.

The name of my daughter "Noor" has been given to this curve; therefore, Noor term describes this curve whenever it is used in this paper. This curve is a form of these opened curves as it extends in the infinity along both sides from the origin point. The curve is designed by a circle/ ellipse which are drawing curvatures that tangent at the origin point, where its circumference is passed through the (0,2a). By sharing two vertical lined points of both the circle diameter and the major axis of the ellipse, the parametric equation is derived. In this paper, a set of various cases of Noor curve are graphically studied by two curvature cases; a circle and an ellipse, and all figures and obtained rigour measurements are checked by AutoCAD program. With its simple, symmetric form, the future predictions are tuned for the Noor's curve to be usefully engaged in important practical applications. © 2021 University of Baghdad.

It was shown that the sizes and concentrations of scattering centers greatly affect the optical amplification mechanism, thresholds, narrowing the emission intensity and then the transition from the incoherent to a coherent type of random laser. The emergence of spikes and the increase in their number are also discussed under the influence of the size and concentration of silver (Ag) nanowires. The gain narrowing and the enhancement factor were calculated to reinforce obtained results. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer-Verlag GmbH, DE part of Springer Nature.Coherence lasing; Plasmonic nanostructures; Random laser; Silver nanowiresCoherent scattering; Dye lasers; Electric resistance measurement; Incoherent scattering; Laser beams; Optical pumping; Rhodamine B; Silver; Silver nanowires; Ultrafast lasers; Different sizes; Emission intensity; Enhancement factor; Gain narrowing; Nanosecond pulsed laser; Optical amplifications; Random lasers; Scattering centers; Pulsed lasersWiersma, D.S., The physics and applications of random lasers (2008) Nat.

This work was undertaken with the concrete damaged plasticity model (CDP). The expansion of corrosion product was utilized to represent the steel-concrete boundary to study the behavior of SFRC beams. Three beams with three volume fractions of steel fiber (0.8 %, 1.2 %, and 1.8 %) and three reinforced concrete (RC) beams with and without stirrups were created and tested under four-point loading to assess the shear capacity of beams. Corrosion of rebars at one of the RC beams that does not contain shear reinforcements will be studied. The crack patterns and load deflections of these beams were compared with experimental results found by the authors. The conclusions of this analysis will be valuable in considering the structural behavior of SFRC structures with uniform steel bar corrosion using FEM. Analytical results showed that the suggested model is qualified in better simulation and in accuracy of numerical and experimental results. The differences between analytical and experimental results were less than 8 % for load carrying capacity and 14 % for deflection; these differences are also satisfactory within the limits of the engineering conclusion. © 2021 Faten Y.

Any untrusted node can eavesdrop on the medium, listen to transmissions and obtain sensitive information within the wireless network. In this paper, we propose a new mechanism which combines the advantages of two techniques namely iJam and OFDM phase encryption. Our modified mechanism makes iJam more bandwidth efficient by using Alamouti scheme to take advantage of the repetition inherent in its implementation. The adversary model is extended to the active adversary case, which has not been done in the original work of iJam and OFDM phase encryption. We propose, through a max min optimization model, a framework that maximizes the secrecy rate by means of a friendly jammer. We formulate a Zero-Sum game that captures the strategic decision making between the transmitter receiver pair and the adversary. We apply the fictitious play (FP) algorithm to reach the Nash equilibria (NE) of the game. Our simulation results show a significant improvement in terms of the ability of the eavesdropper to benefit from the received information over the traditional schemes, i.e. iJam or OFDM phase encryption. © 2021 Institute of Advanced Engineering and Science.

UEC often splits the network, reduces network life, and leads to performance degradation. Sometimes, improving energy consumption is more complicated because it does not reduce energy consumption only, but it also extends network life. This makes energy consumption balancing critical to WSN design calling for energy-efficient routing protocols that increase network life. Some energy-saving protocols have been applied to make the energy consumption among all nodes inside the network equilibrate in the expectancy and end power in almost all nodes simultaneously. This work has suggested a protocol of energy-saving routing named spider monkey optimization routing protocol (SMORP), which aims to probe the issue of network life in WSNs. The proposed protocol reduces excessive routing messages that may lead to the wastage of significant energy by recycling frequent information from the source node into the sink. This routing protocol can choose the optimal routing path. That is the preferable node can be chosen from nodes of the candidate in the sending ways by preferring the energy of maximum residual, the minimum traffic load, and the least distance to the sink. Simulation results have proved the effectiveness of the proposed protocol in terms of decreasing end-to-end delay, reducing energy consumption compared to well-known routing protocols. © 2021 Institute of Advanced Engineering and Science.

It has been used as a recreation agent, for relaxation, as well as for pain relief. However, hepatotoxicity is a widespread problem associated with medicines in general. Most herbal supplements are metabolized by the liver, and thus the liver represents the target organ. At present, Yangonin toxicity appears to be "idiosyncratic". Therefore, a study was designed in order to investigate the organelle-based changes in hepatocytes, after treatment with Yangonin alone and in combination with EtOH. Thirty rats were divided into five groups comprising of six animals each. The groups comprised of the control groups {(NCx) & (PCx)}, Yangonin (Ya) group, ethanol (EtOH) group, and the combination of (Ya) and ethanol (EtOH+Ya) group. The experiment was conducted over a period of 14 weeks, as a sub-chronic study. At the end of the 14 th week, mitochondria, peroxisome, rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum, and nuclei of hepatocytes, were evaluated using a scoring system. The results were compared with histopathological findings, as well. Treatment with Ya significantly induced hepatotoxic scores as compared to the control groups. Organelle injury scores increased significantly with Ya treatment, while rats that received "EtOH+Ya"showed the severest lesions of liver scores such as, severe hepatocellular degeneration, necrosis, and hypertrophy. Ultrastructural and histopathological scores in both groups were in very strong correlation (r = 0.928 for EtOH, r = 0.921 for Ya alone and r = 0.903 for Ya plus EtOH group). In conclusion, ethanol enhanced the sedative and hypnotic activity of Ya, and markedly increased toxicity. Findings based on TEM examination of organelles, supported the histological results as well as tissue lesions/injuries in hepatocytes, a result of hepatotoxin-induced hepatopathy. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.alcohol; Hepatopathy; mitochondria; sER; ultrastructure; YangoninAluminum alloys; Aluminum compounds; Cell death; Cell proliferation; Medicine; Rats; Toxicity; After-treatment; Altering properties; Endoplasmic reticulum; Hepatocellular; Hypnotic activities; Scoring systems; Strong correlation; Ultrastructural changes; EthanolAlmdal, TP, Sorensen, TIA, Incidence of parenchymal liver diseases in Denmark, 1981 to 1985: analysis of hospitalization registry data (1991) Hepatology, 13, p. 650; Rodriguez, LAG, Ruigómez, A, Jick, H, A Review of Epidemiologic Research on Drug-Induced Acute Liver Injury Using the General Practice Research Data Base in the United Kingdom Pharmacother (1997) J.

The study showed an increase in bending loss with decreases bending radius, decreases core radius and increases wavelength. The graded order is effective up to after which the loss is constant. There is an oscillating change in loss caused by interference between the outgoing and reflected waves from the boundaries, which becomes clearer as the loss itself increases. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.bent losses; fundamental mode; graded-orderAluminum alloys; Optical fibers; Arbitrary profile; Bending loss; Bending radius; Core radius; General formulas; Reflected waves; Aluminum compoundsBoechat, A.

The usage of this technology was informed by the need to have the laser spot's highest energy positioned precisely, eventually allowing for the facilitation of further product work piece joining. Indeed, the joining occurred in laser welding machinery. Relative to the displacement phase, it is notable that it could aid in work piece placement into superposition areas, upon which there could be the joining of the parts. Training programs or models that were used involved convolutional neural network and deep learning, which allowed for the resultant system's enhancement of the accuracy with which the positioning could be achieved. Also, the aforementioned algorithms were insightful because they led to the enhancement of machine work efficiency. Similarly, in the study, there was the proposing of a bi-analytic deep learning localization technique. For the purpose of system monitoring in real time, there was the use of a camera. As such, the initial stage entailed the application of the convolutional neural network, which aided in the implementation of large-scale initial searchers before having the laser light spot zone located. In turn, the phase that followed entailed increasing the camera's optical magnification, which paved the way for the spot area's re-imaging, as well as the application of a template matching method to ensure that high-precision repositioning was achieved. When the parameter of the search result area's ratio was considered, it could be seen that the study was able to determine the target spot's integrity parameters. For the case of the complete laser spot, there was the performance of the centroid calculation. Also, in situations where an incomplete laser spot reflected the target, there was the performance of invariant moments' operation. From the findings, the study indicated that from incomplete laser spot images, the laser spot's highest energy could be positioned precisely. The study also established that in order to establish the displacement amount, the image's center and the laser spot's highest energy could be overlapped. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Convolutional neural network; deep learning; laser spot; machine visionAluminum alloys; Aluminum compounds; Cameras; Computer aided instruction; Convolution; Convolutional neural networks; Image processing; Joining; Laser applications; Laser welding machines; Optical data processing; Template matching; Centroid calculation; Displacement phase; Image processing technology; Invariant moment; Localization technique; Superposition area; System monitoring; Template matching method; Deep learningBai, C., Huang, L., Pan, X., Chen, S., Optimization of deep convolutional neural network for large scale image retrieval (2018) Neurocomputing, 303, pp. 60-67; Yu, X., Fei, X., Target image matching algorithm based on pyramid model and higher moments (2017) J.

Its central objective is to decrease the redundancy of the image data for reducing space and the cost of transmitting data in public communication channels. This research suggests a new compression technique based on the statistical rules. The proposed technique is one of the lossy compression techniques is based upon the statistics of the pixel values of the gray-scale image. The quality of these compressed images have been evaluated using some factors like the Image size before/after the compression process, Compression Ratio, (CR), and Peak Signal to Noise Ratio, (PSNR), Mean Square Error (MSE), and Mean Space Saving (MSS). Experimental results have demonstrated that the proposed technique provides sufficient higher compression with minimal to lose data. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.compression ratio; Image compression; lossy compression; Peak signal to noise ratio; statisticalMean square error; Signal to noise ratio; Compressed images; Compression process; Compression techniques; Gray-scale images; Lossy compressions; Peak signal to noise ratio; Statistical rules; Transmitting data; Image compressionUthayakumar, J., Vengattaraman, T., Dhavachelvan, P., A survey on data compression techniques: From the perspective of data quality, coding schemes, data type and applications (2018) J.

Noise reduction is an essential process of image processing in order to improve, analyze and interpret important information in an image. Edges are important to the visual appearance of images, to preserve important features such as edges and corners during the noise reduction process. A class of fourth- and second-order partial differential equations (PDEs) are used to optimize the trade-off between noise removal and edge preservation. Image quality assessment plays an important role in various image processing applications. It is still an active field of research. Several techniques have been suggested for measuring image quality but none of them are ideal for measuring the quality. This paper presents a new assessment of image quality based on topological data analysis (TDA) which is used for evaluating noise removal from colour images and also for assessing the performance of PDE-based denoising models. The experimental results show that the proposed assessment model gives high correlation. Furthermore, the proposed method provides very low computational load and similar extraction of characteristics to human perceptional assessment. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Data handling; Economic and social effects; Image analysis; Image enhancement; Image quality; Information analysis; Noise abatement; Quality control; Topology; Edge preservations; Extraction of characteristics; Image processing applications; Image quality assessment; Low computational loads; PDE-based denoising; Second-order partial differential equation; Topological data analysis; Image denoisingBovik, A.

Electroencephalogram (EEG) is one of the commonly used devices for seizure recognition and epilepsy detection. Recognition of convulsions using EEG waves takes a relatively long time because it is conducted physically by epileptologists. The EEG signals are analyzed and categorized, after being captured, into two types, which are normal or abnormal (indicating an epileptic seizure). This study relies on EEG signals which are provided by Arrhythmia Database. Thus, this work is a step beyond the traditional database mission of delivering users’ inquiries; instead, this work is to extract insight and knowledge of such data. The features are extracted from the signals by applying the Discrete Wavelet transform (DWT) method on the input EEG signals. Two different algorithms Support vector machine (SVM) and k-nearest neighbours (KNN) are applied to the extracted features. After using the above method, two different types of EEG are expected by using classification, either to be normal (refers to the normal activeness of the brain) or abnormal (refers to the non-normal activeness of the brain, which may involve epilepsy). The evaluation is based on three parameters (Precision, Recall, and Accuracy), and also on the implementation time. In this research, two different methods are used, the first is the DWT with SVM, and the second is the DWT with KNN. With regard to the three-parameter values and implementation time, it turned out that the second method was more efficient than the first because of its higher accuracy. © 2021 University of Baghdad-College of Science.

Solubility study of a drug is one of the contributing factors of its oral bioavailability. The formulation of poorly soluble drugs for oral delivery presents a challenge to the formulatio n technologists. Methods: The present study has shown that it is possible to raise the solubility for poorly soluble drugs like famotidine, by preparing solid dispersion using natural water-soluble polymer (xyloglucan and hyaluronic acid) as solubilizer through solvent evaporation method. Physical mixture and solid dispersion of famotidine with xyloglucan (XG) or hyaluronic acid in a ratio of 1:1, 1:2, 1:3 were prepared. Solubility study, drug content, dissolution profile and compatibility study were performed for famotidine in solid dispersions XS1, XS2, XS3, HS4, HS5, HS6 as well as in physical mixtures at a ratio 1:1 for both polymer (XG and hyaluronic acid). Results: It was observed that solid dispersions of each drugs showed an increase in dissolution rate in comparison with its pure drug in the ratio of 1:1 (Drug: carrier). It can be concluded that with the care and proper use of xyloglucan, the solubility of drugs poorly soluble can be improved. The prepared solid dispersion showed improvement of drug solubility in all prepared formulas. The best result was obtained with formula XS1 (famotidine: xyloglucan at ratio 1:1) that showed 26 fold increase in solubility compared to the solubility of pure drug. Conclusion: The natural solid dispersion, increased wettability and reduced crystallinity of the drug which leads to improving solubility and dissolution. © 2021 The Authors.

All transport properties were investigated by using steady-state theoretical model of two different mechanisms in molecular switches, both electrostatic and conformational mechanisms. The results in the electrostatic mechanism show the operations can be controlled by a gating and magnetic flux, while the results in the conformational mechanism can be adjusted by torsion angle. The transmission probability and the electric current are calculated as output signals of the molecular Wheatstone bridge. © 2021 Elsevier LtdElectric current; Molecular electronics; Molecular switches; Molecular wheatstone bridge; Quantum interference effectBridge circuits; Conformations; Electrostatics; Benzene molecules; Different mechanisms; Molecular device; Molecular switches; Molecular wires; Theoretical modeling; Transmission probabilities; Wheatstone bridges; BridgesCarter, F.L., (1984) Phys.

The electronic properties of the anticancer drugs/ZnONS studied by using DFT method, which implemented in the quantum espresso package. Our finding shown that ZnONS has a semiconductor behavior. Interestingly, the electronic band gap of the 5-FU/ZnONS and GB/ZnONS is decreased, but they still have semiconductor behaviors. For 6-MP/ZnONS, it is increased and converted to n-type semiconductor for CP/ZnONS structure. According to acquired findings, the complex structures became more stable and lower reactive due to the total energy of these complex structures is increased compared to pristine ZnONS. All complex structures are required higher excitation energy to transfer an electron due to the chemical hardness of all complex structures is decreased, but the 6-MP/ZnONS structure has the opposite behavior. There is a weak interaction between ZnONS and (5-FU, 6-MP, and GB) and good interaction between the ZnONS and CP due to the electrophilic of these structures has lower and higher values, respectively. Concisely, ZnONS considered the greatest substrate to carry all these anticancer drugs. © 2021 Elsevier B.V.Adsorption energy; Anticancer drug molecules; DFT; DOS; Electronic band gap; Total energyMohammed, M.H., Hanoon, F.H., Theoretical prediction of delivery and adsorption of various anticancer drugs into pristine and metal-doped graphene nanosheet (2020) Chin.

Proteins extracted from bran (WBPC) have potential to improve the protein content and protein quality of pasta, but their contribution to the phytochemical content of pasta is unknown. Findings: In this study, WBPC was added to a spaghetti formulae at 0, 1%, 5%, 10%, and 20% (w/w). The dried uncooked spaghetti were characterized for quali-quantitative composition of phytosterols and phenolic acids. Also, both the uncooked and cooked samples were evaluated for total soluble phenolics (TSP) and antioxidant activity (AO). Results showed that pasta with 20%WBPC increased total phytosterol content (~55%), and phenolic acids content (~57%), with ferulic acid being the main component. Cooked spaghetti had reduced TSP and AO compared to the uncooked. However, cooked 20%WBPC spaghetti had significantly higher contents of both TSP (~37%) and AO (~93%) compared to 100% durum semolina spaghetti. The in vitro starch digestion of pasta was not affected by WBPC at these levels. Conclusion: Spaghetti enriched with WBPC has improved phytochemical content without negative changes on pasta in vitro starch digestion. Significance and novelty: WBPC is a suitable ingredient to enhance the phytochemical content of regular spaghetti with potential health benefits. © 2021 Cereals & Grains Associationantioxidants; durum wheat bran; pasta; phenolic acids; phytosterol; protein concentrate; starch digestionNSW Department of Primary Industries, DPI; University of New England, UNE; Ministry of Higher Education, MOHEThis research was supported by the University of New England and NSW Department of Primary Industries, Australia.

In this study, the theory of total quality management (TQM) is used to identify the quality shortcomings of public service projects in Iraq. Accordingly, data derived from 55 online completed surveys were used to assess the TQM of public service construction. The elements of TQM that were assessed are leadership, communication and cooperation, workforce management, process management, continuous improvement, and client satisfaction. The collected data were analyzed utilizing standardized scores to measure the relative shortcoming of TQM's variables. The results show that, in general, Iraqi engineers perceived the existence of citizens' satisfaction as being relatively higher than other elements. Furthermore, the results suggest that several key performance indicators (KPIs) scored relatively lower than others. Thus, the study highlights where improvements are needed most for TQM of public service projects in Iraq. In addition, there is a lack of quantitative research that supports TQM benefits within the construction context. Therefore, this study contributes to the body of knowledge regarding the usability of TQM within the construction industry. © 2020 American Society of Civil Engineers.Benchmarking; Construction industry; Electronic assessment; Client satisfaction; Continuous improvements; Exploratory studies; Key performance indicators; Process management; Quantitative research; Total quality managements (TQM); Workforce management; Total quality managementAbd-Al-Rida, N.J., (2017) A Review of Iraq National Budget, , https://m.ahewar.org/s.asp?aid=582832&r=0&cid=0&u=&i=4718&q=, Accessed July 20, 2020; Abdel-Razek, R.H., Factors affecting construction quality in Egypt: Identification and relative importance (1998) Eng.

The Rus Formation has been described and its basin was analyzed separately because it was deposited during the regression period (Middle Eocene), which is a transitional period between these two cycles. This study includes analysis of the geohistory of this succession, interpretation of the changes of the accumulation, and calculation of subsidence rates. The results were compared with the space available to explain the basin development. The study site included the boreholes of Garraf-84 and 92, Halfaya-1, Nasirya-13 and 40, and Noor-5 at the Mesopotamian Block, in addition to the Ratawi-8, Tuba-15, Rumaila-217, Zubair-45, and West Qurna-60 at the Basra Block. The Aliji basin was characterized by the decrease in accommodation values to the northeast direction and the increase in all the other parts of the study area. A comparison of the setting of this basin with the Umm Er Radhuma basin gives a clear evidence of the tectonic impact coming from the northeast. During the Middle Eocene stage, we notice that the basin was affected by comprehensive uplifting processes. This led to the generation of a very shallow basin (Rus basin) with the exposure of the northern part of the basin during the regression stage. The Middle-Late Eocene basin is represented by a transgression stage with high subsidence, where the sea level had been raised and covered the northeastern and eastern parts of the studied area by deep sea deposits (Jaddala Formation). While the other parts of the study area were characterized by shallow sediments of Dammam Formation. This period ended with a clear tectonic uplift occurring in the northeastern parts and decreasing towards the southwest. This confirms the reactivation of the tectonic action from the northeast, represented by the continental collision. All these sources of evidence indicate that the study area is divided into a northern part and a southern part. Both of these parts are separated by a major tectonic lineament extending from the West Qurna oil field to the Nasiriya oil field, which confirms the presence of the tectonic boundary between the Mesopotamian block and the Basra block. In addition, there exists a secondary tectonic boundary that divides the Mesopotamian block into two parts, the first is to the east and the other is to the west. The results showed that the eastern side was most affected by the collision of the Iranian Plate with the Arabian Plate, which led to its uplift, while the western side was less affected by this tectonics evidence. © 2021 University of Baghdad-College of Science.

Renewable energy driven Triple Combined Cycle (TCC) is a relatively new idea in this respect. In this paper, a biomass gasification-fueled TCC is presented in which the conventional gas turbine, as the topping cycle, is combined with a Closed Brayton Cycle (CBC) and an Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC). The proposed TCC is integrated with LNG regasification process to exploit its cold exergy for compressor inlet cooling of the CBC. For the CBC three working fluids (namely: helium, nitrogen and carbon dioxide) are considered. There is a good thermal match between the LNG and these fluids in heat rejection process and they can be cooled down to temperatures of below 0°C at the compressor inlet for net power augmentation. Thermoeconomic method is applied to evaluate the TCC performance and optimization using genetic algorithm is employed to minimize the Levelized Cost of Electricity (LCOE). In the economic analysis the cost rate of environmental impacts due to pollutant emissions is also considered. The results indicated the superiority of helium over the other investigated working fluids from the economic perspective for which the LCOE is found to be 51.38 $/MWh. However, as an interesting outcome it is found that, from thermodynamic standpoint using CO2 as the working fluid yields higher exergy efficiency by 6.7% than the helium. © 2021 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLCBiomass;

This is due to space weather impacts on both space-borne and ground-based systems, and industries, which subsequently impacts our lives. In the current study, the deep learning approach is used to establish an automated hybrid computer system for a short-term forecast; it is achieved by using the complexity level of the sunspot group on SDO/HMI Intensitygram images. Furthermore, this suggested system can generate the forecast for solar flare occurrences within the following 24 h. The input data for the proposed system are SDO/HMI full-disk Intensitygram images and SDO/HMI full-disk magnetogram images. System outputs are the “Flare or Non-Flare” of daily flare occurrences (C, M, and X classes). This system integrates an image processing system to automatically detect sunspot groups on SDO/HMI Intensitygram images using active-region data extracted from SDO/HMI magnetogram images (presented by Colak and Qahwaji, 2008) and deep learning to generate these forecasts. Our deep learning-based system is designed to analyze sunspot groups on the solar disk to predict whether this sunspot group is capable of releasing a significant flare or not. Our system introduced in this work is called ASAP_Deep. The deep learning model used in our system is based on the integration of the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Softmax classifier to extract special features from the sunspot group images detected from SDO/HMI (Intensitygram and magnetogram) images. Furthermore, a CNN training scheme based on the integration of a back-propagation algorithm and a mini-batch AdaGrad optimization method is suggested for weight updates and to modify learning rates, respectively. The images of the sunspot regions are cropped automatically by the imaging system and processed using deep learning rules to provide near real-time predictions. The major results of this study are as follows. Firstly, the ASAP_Deep system builds on the ASAP system introduced in Colak and Qahwaji (2009) but improves the system with an updated deep learning-based prediction capability. Secondly, we successfully apply CNN to the sunspot group image without any pre-processing or feature extraction. Thirdly, our system results are considerably better, especially for the false alarm ratio (FAR); this reduces the losses resulting from the protection measures applied by companies. Also, the proposed system achieves a relatively high scores for True Skill Statistics (TSS) and Heidke Skill Score (HSS). © 2021 COSPARConvolution neural network; Deep learning; Softmax classifier; Solar flare predictionBackpropagation; Data handling; Data mining; Deep neural networks; Feature extraction; Forecasting; Image enhancement; Space applications; Convolution neural network; Convolutional neural network; Deep learning; Full disks; Magnetograms; Near-real time; Softmax classifier; Solar flare; Solar flare prediction; Space weather; ConvolutionAbibullaev, B., An, J., Jin, S., Lee, S., Il Moon, J., Deep machine learning—A new Frontier in artificial intelligence research (2013) Med.

In this work, an innovative triple combined power cycle driven by hybrid biomass-solar energies is proposed, analyzed and optimized from the exergy, economics, and environmental standpoints. In order to fulfill the intermittent nature of solar energy, it is used for hydrogen production (via Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) electrolyzer supplied by electricity from Photovoltaic-Thermal (PVT) panels) which is injected into a post-firing combustion chamber of the gas turbine. The proposed system consists of a biomass fueled gas turbine combined with a closed Brayton cycle and a Rankine cycle as the bottoming cycles. To examine the system performance, thermoeconomic evaluation is carried out and multi-objective optimization is performed to find the optimum operating conditions based on Levelized Cost Of Electricity (LCOE) and CO2 emission. The results revealed that, incorporation of solar-based hydrogen production with the biomass-based gas turbine results in a significant decrease in CO2 emissions and biomass consumption as well as increase in power generation capacity. However, it brings about a decrease of exergetic efficiency (due to the large exergy destruction in PVT and PEM electrolyzer) and an increase of LCOE (due to the additional expenditures imposed by PVT panels and PEM electrolyzer). Under the best operating conditions based on multi-objective optimization, the proposed triple combined cycle attains exergy efficiency of 30.44% with a LCOE of 61.37 $/MWh, and CO2 emission of 0.4579 kg/kWh. © 2021 Elsevier LtdGasification;

Amiodarone was associated with a wide range of adverse effects on different organs, including the thyroid gland, lungs, liver, eyes, and skin. The aim of this current study is to check the incidence of the adverse effects on thyroid functions associated with the use of amiodarone among patients who use it in Thi-Qar city, South of Iraq. Method: Prospective study of 238 patients (156 females and 82 males) on amiodarone for 2 years was done, and the adverse effects on thyroid function were reviewed. All the patients were with normal thyroid function as the baseline before using amiodarone. The patients visited either private clinics or Al-Hussain teaching hospital in Thi-Qar from 2018–2020. Results: After serial follow up with patients, the findings were 153 (69.5%) cases were normal, 38 cases (17.3%) with Subclinical hypothyroidism (only thyroid-stimulating hormone increase), 14 cases (6.4%) were pure hypothyroidism, 9 cases (4.1%) with abnormal thyroid function test, 4 cases (1.8%) with amiodarone induce thyroiditis (II), 2 cases (0.9%) with amiodarone induce thyroiditis (I), and 18 cases did not continue with the study. Conclusion: we find out, amiodarone, when used for 2 years in patients with normal thyroid function, was have about (70%) no impact on thyroid function, while the rate of the adverse effect that was associated with the use of amiodarone distributed between thyroiditis and hypothyroidism about 30%. © 2021, Dr. Yashwant Research Labs Pvt.

This paper creates and assesses a satisfactory model of the trip distribution stage for the Nasiriyah city by using two models, Gravity and Fratar methods. A large sample was used for developing the model. The research methodology depends on discussing the theoretical fundamentals of the various methods for estimating the trips distribution and examining the suitability of these fundamentals for the conditions of the selected study area. Two different models had been used, namely; Frater and Gravity model. These models were calibrated using real data. The study tests the accuracy of the models, including overall statistical assessments of the predicted movements. Finally, the study recommended to use Fratar Method. These results had been confirmed to the literature that, if the area is a homogenous growth, the best model is the growth factor (Fratar's method) and if the area is experiencing rapid changes.

The aim of this study is to prevalence of clfA gene by PCR technique and to identify the genetic polymorphisms of clumping factor A gene in S. aureus. Thirty five (87.5%) isolates were identified as S. aureus from 40 burn samples. The molecular results showed that the clfA was found only in 29 (82.86%). The current results indicated the absence of any detectable nucleic acid variations in the amplified 288bp fragment of the clfA gene. The generated clfR-based phylogenetic tree indicated accurate positioning with regard to the investigated samples. These comprehensive trees were constructed to allocate the identified mutations with their related organisms. The currently constructed phylogenetic provided informative comprehensive data, in terms of the accurate positioning of S. aureus samples and their relative sequences. Therefore, the generated clfA-based phylogenetic trees provided a confirmed identity with respect to the phylogenetic relationships among the investigated samples. © 2021.

In this study, it is aimed to determine epidemiologically the frequency of endocrine problems leading to anovulation and ovarian dysfunction in infertile women who applied to the hospital. TSH, FSH, LH, prolactin, 17-OH progesterone, TSH levels The percentage of high cases was 25.54% and these cases were subclinical hypothyroidism. TSH levels of 1.26% threshold value he remained under. FSH serum levels were above 12.9%, below the threshold of 4. 05%. In contrast, LH serum levels were found above 5. 6% threshold and below 5. 98% threshold. The level of 17-OH progesterone was above the threshold value of 12.4% and below the threshold value of 0. 68%. Weak positive between 17-OH progesterone. It was determined that FSH serum level increased with age and 17-OH progesterone levels decreased with age.

Via airborne droplets, and blood transfusions can transmit and cause different medical diseases, like infectious erythema, arthropathy, fetal hydrops and temporary aplastic crises. Aim of the study is to investigate how Parvovirus B19 has affected the pathogenesis and development of beta thalassemia major by detection of viral genome in whole blood of the patients. A case-control study included 120 patients with beta thalassemia major and 50 healthy persons as (control). Whole blood samples were collected for detection of viral genome of Parvovirus B19 by conventional Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) technique. Parvovirus B19 specific DNA sequence was detected in 15 (12.5%) of patients while the result was negative (0.0%) for control. Statistically there was high significant difference between the patients and control with p value 0.004. In conclusion, detection of Parvovirus B19 genome in patients with thalassemia may be suggested a role for this virus in the pathogenesis and consequences of beta thalassemia major. © 2021.

The aim of this study is to profile sul1 gene encoded to sulfonamide antibiotic resistance by PCR technique and to identify the genetic polymorphisms of the sulfonamide synthase (sul1) genes in E. coli. Sixty isolates were identified as E. coli from 70 totally diarrhea samples. The molecular results showed that the sul1 was found only in 56.67%. The sequencing results indicated the presence of several mutations sul1 gene, it generated sul1-based phylogenetic trees indicated accurate positioning with regard to investigated samples. These comprehensive trees were constructed to allocate the identified mutations with their related organisms. The currently constructed phylogenetic provided informative comprehensive data, in terms of the accurate positioning of E. coli samples and their relative sequences. Therefore, the generated Sul1-based phylogenetic trees provided a confirmed identity with respect to the phylogenetic relationships among the investigated samples. In conclusion, the utilization of SUL1 amplicons has precisely given distinctive phylogenetic discrimination amongst E. coli. This, in turn, indicates the feasibility of utilizing the currently targeted Sul1 fragments in the precise determination of the investigated identity of E. coli identity in the clinical samples. © 2021.

Aim: The present study aims to evaluate in vitro and in vivo antileishmanial effects of copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) green synthesized by Capparis spinosa fruit extract alone and combined with meglumine antimoniate (MA). Methods: CuNPs were green synthesized by C. spinosa methanolic extract. The in vitro antileishma-nial activity of CuNPs (10–200 µg/mL) or MA alone (10–200 µg/mL), and various concentrations of MA (10–200 µg/mL) along with 20 µg/mL of CuNPs, was assessed against the Leishmania major (MRHO/IR/75/ER) amastigote forms and, then tested on cutaneous leishmaniasis induced in male BALB/c mice by L. major. Moreover, infectivity rate, nitric oxide (NO) production, and cytotoxic effects of CuNPs on J774-A1 cells were evaluated. Results: Scanning electron microscopy showed that the particle size of CuNPs was 17 to 41 nm. The results demonstrated that CuNPs, especially combined with MA, significantly (p < 0.001) inhibited the growth rate of L. major amastigotes and triggered the production of NO (p < 0.05) in a dose-dependent manner. CuNPs also had no significant cytotoxicity in J774 cells. The mean number of parasites was significantly (p < 0.05) reduced in the infected mice treated with CuNPs, especially combined with MA in a dose-dependent response. The mean diameter of the lesions decreased by 43 and 58 mm after the treatment with concentrations of 100 and 200 mg/mL of CuNPs, respectively. Conclusion: The findings of the present study demonstrated the high potency and synergistic effect of CuNPs alone and combined with MA in inhibiting the growth of amastigote forms of L. major, as well as recovery and improving cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) induced by L. major in BALB/c mice. Additionally, supplementary studies, especially in clinical settings, are required. © 2021 by the authors.

Using the density matrix theory, the amplitude and phase of the transmission function are studied. It is shown that the transmission is enhanced by the presence of SGC, and the resultant diffraction intensity can increase by controlling the phase. The SGC-assisted EIG controlled by two, three, and four coupling optical fields are studied respectively. Remarkably, we find that the system acquires a huge diffraction intensity when the wetting layer-quantum dot (WL-QD) field is high in the case of four coupling fields. © 2020 The Physical Society of the Republic of China (Taiwan)Electromagnetically induced grating; Quantum-dot; Spontaneously generated coherenceWan, R.G., Kou, J., Jiang, L., Jiang, Y., Gao, J.Y., Electromagnetically induced grating via enhanced nonlinear modulation by spontaneously generated coherence (2011) Phys.

The present study aims to evaluate the in vitro and ex vivo anti-parasitic effects of copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) alone and combined with albendazole on hydatid cyst protoscoleces. Methods: CuNPs was green synthesized using C. spinosa extract. Various concentrations of CuNPs (250, 500, and 750 mg/mL) alone and combined with albendazole (ALZ, 200 mg/mL) were exposed to protoscoleces collected from the liver fertile hydatid cysts of infected sheep for 5−60 min in vitro and ex vivo. Next, the eosin exclusion test was applied to determine the viability of protoscoleces. Caspase-3 like activity of CuNPs-treated protoscoleces was then evaluated using the colorimetric protease assay Sigma Kit based on the manufacturer's instructions. Results: Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) results showed that the particle size of CuNPs was 17 and 41 nm with the maximum peak at the wavelength of 414 nm. The maximum protoscolicidal activity of CuNPs was observed at the concentration of 750 mg/mL in vitro, so that 73.3 % of protoscoleces were killed after 60 min of exposure. Meanwhile, the mortality of protoscoleces was 100 % after 10 min of exposure to 750 mg/mL of CuNPs along with ALZ (200 mg/mL). Nevertheless, the findings proved that CuNPs even in combination with ALZ required a longer time to kill protoscoleces ex vivo. After 48 h of treating protoscoleces, CuNPs in a dose-dependent manner and at doses of 250, 500, and 750 mg/mL induced the caspase enzyme activation by 20.5 %, 32.3 %, and 36.1 %, respectively. Conclusion: The findings of the present investigation showed potent protoscolicidal effects of CuNPs, especially combined with albendazole, which entirely eliminated the parasite after 10−20 min of exposure. The results also showed that although the possible protoscolicidal mechanisms of CuNPs are not clearly understood, the inducing apoptosis through caspases is one of the main protoscolicidal mechanisms of CuNPs. However, supplementary studies, especially in animal models and clinical settings, are needed to approve these results. © 2021 The AuthorsApoptosis; Cystic echinococcosis; Ex vivo; Hydatid cyst; In vitro; Surgeryalbendazole; anticestodal agent; caspase 3; copper nanoparticle; eosin; albendazole; anticestodal agent; caspase 3; copper; metal nanoparticle; protozoal protein; animal tissue; Article; biosynthesis; Capparis spinosa; colorimetry; drug synthesis; echinococcosis; enzyme activation; ex vivo study; fruit; in vitro study; nonhuman; particle size; priority journal; protoscolex; protoscolicidal activity; scanning electron microscopy; sheep; ultraviolet visible spectroscopy; animal; apoptosis; chemistry; domestic sheep; drug effect; drug formulation; Echinococcus granulosus; growth, development and aging; liver hydatid cyst; metabolism; nanotechnology; parasitology; Albendazole; Animals; Anticestodal Agents; Apoptosis; Caspase 3; Copper; Drug Compounding; Echinococcosis, Hepatic; Echinococcus granulosus; Metal Nanoparticles; Nanotechnology; Protozoan Proteins; Sheep, Domesticalbendazole, 54965-21-8; caspase 3, 169592-56-7; eosin, 17372-87-1, 51395-88-1, 548-26-5; copper, 15158-11-9, 7440-50-8; Albendazole; Anticestodal Agents; Caspase 3; Copper; Protozoan ProteinsEckert, J., Thompson, R.C., Historical aspects of echinococcosis (2017) Adv.

Fisher-Snedecor $\mathcal {F}$ fading channels is analysed. Accordingly, the probability density function (PDF) and the moment generating function (MGF) of the maximum of i.n.i.d. Fisher-Snedecor $\mathcal {F}$ variates are derived first. Based on these statistics, the exact expression and the asymptotic behaviour at high average signal-to-noise ratio value of the average bit error probability (ABEP), the normalised average channel capacity (ACC), and the average area under the receiver operating characteristics curve (AUC) of the energy detection based spectrum sensing with i.n.i.d. SC diversity receivers are provided. To validate our analysis, the numerical results are compared with the Monte Carlo simulations. © 2012 IEEE.average error probability; channel capacity; energy detection; Fisher-Snedecor F fading; Selection combiningBit error rate; Error statistics; Fading channels; Monte Carlo methods; Probability density function; Signal to noise ratio; Asymptotic behaviour; Average bit error probability; Average channel capacities; Diversity receiver; Moment generating function; Probability density function (pdf); Receiver operating characteristics; Selection combining; Signal receiversSimon, M.K., Alouini, M.-S., (2005) Digital Communications over Fading Channels, , New York, NY, USA: Wiley; Bithas, P.S., Mathiopoulos, P.T., Kotsopoulos, S.A., Diversity reception over generalized-K (KG) fading channels (2007) IEEE Trans.

During the recording process, it is usually contaminated with different kinds of noise which includes power-line interference, baseline wandering and muscle contraction. In order to clean the ECG signal, several noise removal techniques have been used such as adaptive filters, empirical mode decomposition, Hilbert-Huang transform, wavelet-based algorithm, discrete wavelet transforms, modulus maxima of wavelet transform, patch based method, and many more. Unfortunately, all the presented methods cannot be used for online processing since it takes long time to clean the ECG signal. The current research presents a unique method for ECG denoising using a novel approach of adaptive filters. The suggested method was tested by using a simulated signal using MATLAB software under different scenarios. Instead of using a reference signal for ECG signal denoising, the presented model uses a unite delay and the primary ECG signal itself. Least mean square (LMS), normalized least mean square (NLMS), and Leaky LMS were used as adaptation algorithms in this paper. © 2021 Institute of Advanced Engineering and Science.

A dominating subset D of V is said a bi-dominating set, if every vertex of it dominates two vertices of V - D. The bi-domination number of G, denoted by γbi(G) is the minimum cardinality over all bi-dominating sets in G. In this paper, a certain modified bi-domination parameter called doubly connected bi-domination and its inverse are introduced. Several bounds and properties are studied here. These modified dominations are applied and evaluated for several well-known graphs and complement graphs. © 2021 World Scientific Publishing Company.bi-domination; Doubly connected dominating set; inverse bi-dominationAbdlhusein, M.

It is considered as widely health problem and is an uncontrolled disease. The aim of the study is to identify of Leishmania species that cause skin lesions among patients in Thi-Qar Province, South of Iraq, also to detect some virulence factors of L. tropica. This study includes three local locations, Al-Hussein Teaching, Suq Al-Shyokh General and Al-Shatrah General Hospitals in Province for the period from the beginning of December 2018 to the end of September 2019. The samples were collected from 80 patients suffering from cutaneous leishmaniasis, both genders, different ages, various residence places and single and multiple lesions. Nested-PCR technique was used to amplify kinetoplast minicircle fragments DNA (kDNA). Conventional-PCR was performed for determination of some virulence factors (LPG1, GP63, CPA and PPG1 genes). The electrophoresis findings of kDNA gene showed two species of the parasite found in the study area, 65 samples were positive for cutaneous leishmaniasis, L. tropica at 750bp and L. major at 560bp. Generally, L. tropica (57.5%) was the most common specie and L. major (23.75%) appeared in a low level. There are no significant differences between the infections of males and females, while there are significant differences at the comparison between age groups. All virulence genes (LPG1, GP63, CPA and PPG1) appeared in all L. tropica isolates with high percentage (100%). L. tropica is the major specie which that caused CL in Thi-Qar province, while L. major appeared in low incidence. The virulence genes, which were reviewed, are necessary and important in pathogenesis of L. tropica. © 2021 University of Baghdad.

Each player chooses one of two strategies with probabilities x and 1-x, where the subjective players bias their choices of the probabilities to be w(x) and w(1-x) to reflect the probability weighting effect of PT. We find that players' behavior is affected by the total number of players and the number of each type of player (objective or subjective). We show that increasing the number of participating firms encourages the information sharing strategy and the behavior becomes similar for both types of players. Subjective players' are affected more by increasing the number of participating firms (the number of players). As a result, subjective players are more likely to cooperate by sharing information and paying the costs of this sharing than objective players. We derive the conditions to achieve a locally asymptotically stable Nash equilibrium (NE) and the necessary conditions to achieve an evolutionary stable strategy (ESS). © 2021 IEEE.Evolutionary Games; Game Theory; Prospect Theory; Replicator Dynamics; Security InvestmentDecision making; Decision theory; Game theory; Information analysis; Probability; Asymptotically stable; Evolutionary games; Evolutionary stable strategies; Expected utility theory; Information sharing; Information sharing strategies; Probability weighting; Sharing information; Information disseminationCole, E., (2012) Advanced Persistent Threat: Understanding the Danger and How to Protect Your Organization, , Newnes; Ussath, M., Jaeger, D., Cheng, F., Meinel, C., Advanced persistent threats: Behind the scenes (2016) Proc.

In recent years, community detection has attracted intensive interest especially in the implementation of clustering algorithms in complex networks for community discovery. In this paper the social network was divided into communities using the proposed algorithm which is called (CDBNN) algorithm, CDBNN stands for Community Discovery Based on Nodes Neighbor. The seed nodes(candidate nodes) were extracted using the degree centrality in each community. The propagates model (PSI) was used to information propagates through the network. Finally, using closeness centrality to extract the influential nodes from the network. Experimental results on the real network are efficient for influence propagates, compared with two known proposals. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Complex networks; Candidate nodes; Closeness centralities; Community detection; Community discoveries; Degree centrality; Influence maximizations; Influential nodes; Real networks; Clustering algorithmsKoutrouli, M., Karatzas, E., Paez-Espino, D., Pavlopoulos, G.

When trying to access a resource from outside one's domain, various issues are arising which prevent cooperating among those domains without endangering the security of the protected resources. The main challenge is how to efficiently handle the rights of users throughout the period of interoperation between various domains. In this paper, we propose a semantic-based multi-domain authorization approach that protects the resources on the multiple domains and, at the same time, provides a steady, flexible and secure authorized access to the protected resources. Two algorithms are described, one for single-domain authorization and the other is for multi-domain authorization. Our approach is based on dynamically merging access control policy rules for various domains in one large ontology, then extracting the access decision. We develop a proof-of-concept implementation and give the complexity analysis for our approach. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Authorization; Multi-Domain (MD); Semantic Web (SW); Web Ontology Language (OWL)Computational complexity; Semantics; Access control policies; Access decision; Complexity analysis; Different domains; Interoperations; Multiple domains; Proof of concept; Single domains; Access controlRuixuan, Li, Request-driven role mapping framework for secure interoperation in multi-domain environments (2008) Computer Systems Science and Engineering, 23, p. 193; Blobel, Bernd, Modelling privilege management and access control (2006) International Journal of Medical Informatics, 75, pp. 597-623; Zeinab, Iranmanesh, Morteza, Amini, Rasool, Jalili, (2008) A Logic for Multi-domain Authorization Considering Administrators; Antonios, Gouglidis, Ioannis, Mavridis, Hu, Vincent C., Security policy verification for multi-domains in cloud systems (2014) International Journal of Information Security, 13, pp. 97-111; John, Edwards Nigel, Jason, Rouault, (2008), Multi-domain authorization and authentication U.

There are many applications of image inpainting include the restoration of damaged images, paintings, and movies, to the removal of selected objects, such as text, lines, subtitles, publicity, and stamps. The main objective of inpainting is to reconstruct the missing region in such a way that the observer does not come to know that the image has been manipulated. Inpainting methods can be categorized into global and local methods, the global methods are applied to reconstruct the damaged areas in the image based on the information in the data of images that have the same content. While the local methods are used to reconstruct the missing regions based on the information in the rest parts of the image. There are several local methods proposed for image inpainting such as PDE-based inpainting (PDE-BI), exemplar-based inpainting (EBI), hybrid, and texture synthesis methods. In this paper, a review of different PDE and variational methods used for image inpainting is provided. Different PDE-BI methods like 2nd-and high-order of variational and PDE methods are discussed with its pros and cons. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Textures; Damaged area; Exemplar-based; Global methods; Image Inpainting; Inpainting method; Local methods; Texture synthesis; Variational methods; Image reconstructionBertalmio, M, Sapiro, G., Caselles, V, Ballester, C, Image inpainting (2000) Proc. 27th Annu.

Owing to the special general physical properties of TiO2 and graphene, graphene has a huge conductivity to sustain TiO2 and is used as a photo catalyst in water and moisture solutions in bio nano sensors. TiO2 has special features, such as stability low toxicity and cost-effectiveness. Primary findings have shown that the manufacture of the system sensor displays a great and quick reaction to glucose to be the ideal biosensor unit The use of TiO2 is limited by its wide band gap energy contributing to light absorbance in the UV spectrum area and the relatively high rate of recombination of photo-generated electrons. The use of G / TiO2 to improve photocatalytic behavior and stability so that maximum electrical sensitivity can be achieved.

There are different models for security assessment, and the operation of selecting the appropriate model depends on the type of the cryptosystem. Consequently, the criteria for assessing security differ from one model to another. Information security contributes directly to increase the level of trust between users by providing an assurance of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The main goal of this paper proposing an evaluation model of the cryptography systems. in this paper focuses the stream cipher started from its simple component LFSR and then add more than one register and using a linear feedback shift register (LFSR) with Langford arrangements to generate system to achieve randomness and complexity and evaluated based on statistical tests, information theory, soft computing (fuzzy logic), game theory. The results were acceptable and successfully passed the required tests. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Computer games; Cryptography; Fuzzy logic; Game theory; Information theory; Regulatory compliance; Security of data; Soft computing; Appropriate models; Evaluation modeling; Linear feedback shift registers; Security assessment; Security evaluation; Security model; Security standards; Stream Ciphers; Shift registersTilborg, H.

Measurements of nitrate and nitrite concentrations generated after every 15 minutes were performed by the Multi-Direct-Photometer. The absorption and maximum wavelength were measured by UV and visible detecting the oxide formed during the time limit set for the water solution sample to be drawn from all types of soil studied. The results showed that nitrite and nitrite concentrations correspond to the absorption at all times, and the soil that absorbs nitrogen oxides the most is Silt. Therefore, various types of measurements and the proportions of the elements and compounds present in the soil before and after irradiation were studied. Emphasis was placed on the study of PH and EC electrical conductivity, where it was concluded that the values of electrical conduction increase as the concentration of nitrates and nitrites increases. As for PH values, it was found that silt, before irradiation are base-medial, and because of their influence on the acidic mean, which is the highest absorption ratio, after irradiation they were converted to a neutral medium or near acid, Loam soil get the opposite from a type of acid, and because they are affected by the post-irradiation to the base metal. © 2021 Iranian Society of Ichthyology.Nitrate ions; Organic source; PH; UVNaik, V., Voulgarakis, A., Fiore, A.M., Horowitz, L.W., Lamarque, J.F., Lin, M., Zeng, G., Preindustrial to present-day changes in tropospheric hydroxyl radical and methane lifetime from the Atmospheric Chemistry and Climate Model Intercomparison Project (ACCMIP) (2013) Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 13 (10), pp. 5277-5298; Smyshlyaev, S., Mareev, E., Galin, V.Y., Simulation of the impact of thunderstorm activity on atmospheric gas composition (2010) Izvestiya, Atmospheric and Oceanic Physics, 46 (4), pp. 451-467; Orlando, J.J., Tyndall, G.S., Brasseur, G.P., (1999) Atmospheric chemistry and global change, , Oxford University Press Oxford; Houghton, J.T., Ding, Y.D.

The information of this trait important for genetics, anthropologists, biologists, and maybe to clinicians. Hence, this study was conducted to investigate the frequency of PTC in Arab Baghdadi population. A total of 1000 individuals apparently healthy were examined for the trait of tasters and non-tasters using PTC taste strips. Based on the results, of 1000 were tasters 690 (69%) and 310 (31%) non-tasters and who carry the homozygotes recessive (tt) which represented as q and dominants homozygote was represented as p in Hardy Weinberg equilibrium, and the allele frequency of q (t) was 0.556 and p (T) was 0.444and according to Hardy Weinberg equilibrium, the heterozygotes are represented by the 2pq were (0.494) and the number of heterozygotes individuals were calculated 494. © 2021 Iranian Society of Ichthyology.Arab population; Baghdad; Iraq; Phenylthiocarbamide (PTC)Mustansiriyah UniversityThanks are due to the Mustansiriyah University, Baghdad, Iraq.

As a results of those virulence factors of H. Pylori causes gastritis. This study aimed to detect H. pylori using of real-time PCR amplification of VacA and CagA genes, and compare between both genes and detection by urease and creatine. For this purpose, a total of 50 patients were selected and have been clinically diagnosed with gastritis. Biopsy samples were collected from all the patients. Rapid urease test (RUT) was applied to all gastric samples to detect the presence of H. Pylori. DNA was extracted and the RT-PCR was perform to detect the VacA and CagA genes. The results of RUT showed 20 samples were positive of H. Pylori, after the Real Time-PCR test were done the results showed 27 (54%) to VacA and 25 (50%) to CagA genes were positives. © 2021 Iranian Society of Ichthyology.Biopsies; Gastritis; Helicobactor pylori; Real-time PCRAbu-Taleb, A.M., Abdelattef, R.S., Abdel-Hady, A.A., Omran, F.H., El-Korashi, L.A., El-hady, A.A., El-Gebaly, A.M., Prevalence of Helicobacter pylori cagA and iceA genes and their association with gastrointestinal diseases (2018) International journal of microbiology, 2018; Abu-Zekry, M.A., Hashem, M., Ali, A.A., Mohamed, I.S., Frequency of H. pylori infection among Egyptian children presenting with gastrointestinal manifestations (2013) Journal of the Egyptian Public Health Association, 8, pp. 74-78; Alazmi, W.M., Siddique, I., Alateeqi, N., Al-Nakib, B., Prevalence of H. pylori infection among new outpatients with dyspepsia in Kuwait (2010) BMC Gastroenterol, 10 (1), pp. 1-4; Ali, A.S., Borei, M.B., H. pylori and Egyptian infantile colic (2013) Journal of the Egyptian Society of Parasitology, 43, pp. 327-332; Al-Sabary, A.H., Razzaq, M.S.A., Wtwt, M.

A dominating set D of G is said a pitchfork dominating set (pds) if every v in it dominates at most k and at least j vertices out of D, for any non-negative integers j and k. The pitchfork domination number (pdn) of G, denoted by γpf(G) is the order of a minimum pds in G. In this paper, the inverse pitchfork domination is introduced, the definition is used for j= 1 and k= 2. Several bounds are determined that are associated with size, order, maximum degree and minimum degree of a graph. Also, this type of domination on some known graphs is calculated, like: path, cycle, complete, complete bipartite and wheel graph. The essential conditions for any graph having an inverse pitchfork domination are discussed. © 2021, The Indian National Science Academy.05C69; Bipartite graph; Cycle; Inverse pitchfork domination; Path; Pitchfork dominationHarary, F., (1969) Graph Theory, , Addison-Wesley, Reading Mass; Rahman, M.S., (2017) Basic Graph Theory, , Springer, India; Hedetneimi, S.T., Laskar, R., Topics in Domination in Graphs (1990) Discrete Math; Ore, O., (1962) Theory of Graphs, , American Mathematical Society, Provedence, R.I; Abdlhusein, M.A., Al-Harere, M.N., Pitchfork Domination and It’s Inverse for Corona and Join Operations in Graphs (2019) Proceedings of International Mathematical Sciences, 1 (2), pp. 51-55; Al-Harere, M.N., Abdlhusein, M.A., Pitchfork Domination in Graphs, Discrete Mathematics (2020) Algorithms and Applications, 12 (2), p. 2050025; Al-Harere, M.N., Breesam, A.T., Variant Types of Domination in Spinner Graph (2019) Al-Nahrain Journal, (2), pp. 127-133; Al-Harere, M.N., Khuda Bakhash, P.A., Tadpole Domination in Graphs (2018) Baghdad Science Journal, 15 (4), pp. 466-471; Omran, A.A., Jabour, A.A., Domination in Dicrete Topology Graphs, AIP Conference Proceedings 2183, 030006, Maltepe Uni., 2019, Istanbul, Turkey; Omran, A.A., Rajihy, Y., Some Properties of Frame Domination in Graphs (2017) Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, 12, pp. 8882-8885; Chellali, M., Haynes, T.W., Hedetniemi, S.T., Rae, A.M., [1,2]-Set in Graphs (2013) Discrete Applied Mathematic, 161 (18), pp. 2885-2893; Natarajan, C., Ayyaswamy, S.K., Sathiamoorthy, G., A Note on Hop Domination Number of Some Special Families of Graphs (2018) International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics, 119 (12), pp. 14165-14171; Omran, A.A., Hamed Oda, H., Hn Domination in Graphs (2019) Baghdad Science Journal, 16 (1), pp. 242-247; Yang, X., Wu, B., [1, 2] - Domination in Graphs (2014) Discrete Applied Mathematic, 175, pp. 79-86; Abdlhusein, M.A., Al-Harere, M.N., Doubly Connected Pitchfork Domination and Its Inverse in Graphs (2020) TWMS J.

Compounds (polyester / walnut shells) were prepared, and for different weight concentrations of walnut shells (WS) additive, the proportions ranged between (0%-25%). The used cavity is rectangular in shape with a theoretically resonance frequency of around (9.9978 GHz) and exiting the dominant mode (TE101). The study shows the highest values of each dielectric constant with a weight concentration (25%) of the walnut shells, and the loss tangent without any material change to the sample. These compounds have been found to be useful in applications of electromagnetic materials such as microwave engineering and protection from biological influences when exposed to the field of microwaves, which is why it is very important to test their dielectric properties. © 2021, Anka Publishers.

The electrical sub-model is built based on fitting a surface to the current-voltage curves collected under wide range temperatures and irradiances. For this purpose, the current-voltage characteristic curves are reproduced using two different methods. The thermal sub-model considers all the effective heat transfer mechanisms to estimate the photovoltaic module junction temperature. The Newton-Raphson iterative method is used as a solving algorithm to calculate the photovoltaic junction temperature. The collected results prove the applicability of the model under a wide range of environmental conditions. © 2020 The Author(s)Current-voltage characteristics; Electro-thermal model; Heat loss mechanisms; Solar cellsBME IE-NAT TKP2020, EFOP-3.6.1-16-2016-00014, NKFIH-849-8/ 2019; Nemzeti Kutatási Fejlesztési és Innovációs Hivatal, NKFIHThe research reported in this paper was supported by the BME Nanotechnology and Materials Science TKP2020 IE grant of NKFIH Hungary (BME IE-NAT TKP2020), the Stipendium Hungaricum Scholarship Programme, the grant EFOP-3.6.1-16-2016-00014 and by the Science Excellence Program at BME under the grant agreement NKFIH-849-8/ 2019 of the Hungarian National Research, Development and Innovation Office.Shapoval, S., Zhelykh, V., Spodyniuk, N., Dzeryn, O., Gulai, B., The effectiveness to use the distribution manifold in the construction of the solar wall for the conditions of circulation (2019) Pollack Period, 14 (2), pp. 143-154; Armstrong, S., Hurley, W.

Microstructural characterization was conducted by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) equipped with energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) facility, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD). The mechanical property was examined using hardness test. The results revealed that cubic primary Mg2Si crystals shaped by {100} facets with an average particle size of 35 μm were successfully fabricated through the addition of 0.2 wt. % Ba element to Al-Mg-Si melts. For the first time, it is revealed that the Al4Ba compound can act as the nuclei for the primary Mg2Si during solidification, which leads to the refining of the primary Mg2Si particle size extensively. Furthermore, the formation of Al2Si2Ba and AlSiBa intermetallic compounds (IMCs) are liable for the Mg2Si particle refinement; hence, the hardness of the alloy increased from 60.21 to 67.83 Hv. Besides, thermal analysis showed that the nucleation temperatures of the primary Mg2Si phase increased with the addition of Ba. Ba additions perform a substantial role in determining the shapes of primary Mg2Si crystals, which can be altered from coarse dendritic structure (0 wt. %) to crystals with a combination of eight {111} and four {100} facets (0.08 wt. %), then to truncated cube (0.1 wt. %), and finally to a cube fully bounded by {100} facets (0.2 wt. %) with increasing Ba concentrations. This study revealed that the growth process of the cubic primary Mg2Si is due to the absorption and poisoning effect of Ba atoms, which leads to the fading of the growth rates of {100} faces of primary Mg2Si and as a result the {100} faces are exposed. Furthermore, in the modified alloy, the skeleton-type growth process of the cubic primary Mg2Si was found, in which growth steps with some hillocks were detected. © 2021 The Author(s).Al-Mg-Si alloy; Ba addition; Hardness; Heterogeneous nucleation; Modification; Thermal analysisBinary alloys; Crystal structure; Energy dispersive spectroscopy; Hardness; Magnesium alloys; Nucleation; Particle size; Particle size analysis; Scanning electron microscopy; Silicon alloys; Thermoanalysis; Al-Mg-Si; Al-Mg-Si alloys; Ba addition; Growth process; Heterogeneous nucleation; Mechanical; Mg$-2$; Modification; Primary Mg; Thermal; Aluminum alloysEuropean Commission, EC: CZ.02.1.01/0.0/0.0/16_025/0007293; Technická Univerzita v Liberci; Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, UTM: 06G32, Q.J130000.2524.16H39The authors acknowledge Universiti Teknolgi Malaysia ( UTM ) for provision of research facility and financial support provided under the vote Q.J130000.2524.16H39 and UTM 00L65 and 06G32.

It is a rich and inexpensive source of phytonutrients, so is in demand for fibre-rich food products but creates quality issues when incorporated into bread. The purpose of this study was to characterize the physicochemical properties and phytochemical composition of different size durum bran fractions and show how they impact bread quality. Durum wheat (Triticum durum Desf.) was milled to create a coarse bran fraction (CB), which was further ground into a finer fraction (FB) which was sieved using four screens with apertures 425, 315, 250, 180, and <180 µm to create a particle size range of 1497 to 115 µm. All fractions contained phytosterol with highest in the 180 and FB, while total phenolic acids and antioxidant capacity was highest in CB and 425. Use of the fractions in a leavened common wheat (T. aestivum L.) bread formula at 10% incorporation negatively impacted bread loaf volume, colour, and texture compared to standard loaves, with CB having the least impact. Results suggest that to combine the highest phytochemical content with minimal impact on bread quality, bran particle size should be considered, with CB being the best choice. © 2021 by the authors.

Here, we aimed to review the preclinical studies (in vitro and in vivo) on the anti-leishmanial activity of chitosan and chitosan-based particles against Leishmania spp. Methods: This study was conducted based on the 06-PRISMA guidelines and registered in the CAMARADES-NC3Rs Preclini-cal Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Facility (SyRF) database. Various English databases such as PubMed, Google Scholar, Web of Science, EBSCO, ScienceDirect, and Scopus were used to find the publications related to the anti-leishmanial effects of chitosan and its derivatives and other pharmaceutical formulations, without a date limitation, to find all the published articles. The keywords included “chitosan”, “chitosan nanoparticles”, “anti-leishmanial”, “Leishmania”, “leishmaniasis”, “cutaneous leishmaniasis”, “visceral leishmaniasis”, “in vitro”, and “in vivo”. The language for data collection were limited to English. Results: Of 2669 papers, 25 papers, including 7 in vitro (28.0%), 7 in vivo (28.0%), and 11 in vitro/in vivo (44.0%) studies conducted up to 2020 met the inclusion criteria for discussion in this systematic review. The most common species of Leishmania used in these studies were L. major (12, 48.0%), L. donovani (7, 28.0%), and L. amazonensis (4, 16.80%). In vivo, the most used animals were BALB/c mice (11, 61.1%) followed by hamsters (6, 33.3%) and Wistar rats (1, 5.5%), respectively. In vitro, the most used Leishmania form was amastigote (8, 44.4%), followed by promastigote (4, 22.2%), and both forms promastigote/amastigote (6, 33.3%). Conclusion: According to the literature, different types of drugs based on chitosan and their derivatives demonstrated considerable in vitro and in vivo anti-leishmanial activity against various Leishmania spp. Based on the findings of this review study, chitosan and its derivatives could be considered as an alternative and complementary source of valuable components against leishmaniasis with a high safety index. Nevertheless, more investigations are required to elaborate on this result, mainly in clinical settings. © 2021 by the authors.

The shaped metal deposition with cold wire feeding process is suitable as an alternative technique for traditional manufacturing methods, especially for complex and large-scale solid parts and it is especially used for structural components in aerospace and the manufacture and repair of dying/molds. In this paper, a new experimental setup was developed, which consists of a MIG welding source, an external cold wire feed unit and a 3-axis machine. The paper explains the design, implementation, and stages of control programing (CAD-CAM) of the developed system. Furthermore, the paper presents the important design steps from the design database using CAD to the final shape of the part to be configured. The proposed system is capable of producing parts of different shapes in sizes of more than 450 mm directly from the computer-aided design. Several components are fabricated with SS309L components to achieve the capability of the advanced proposed system. The results showed that the integrated system and the program are feasible and flexible and hence can be used to manufacture variously shaped parts. © 2021, King Fahd University of Petroleum & Minerals.Computer control system; Gas metal arc welding; Shaped metal deposition; Wire and arc additive manufacturingHuang, R., Riddle, M., Graziano, D., Warren, J., Das, S., Nimbalkar, S., Energy and emissions saving potential of additive manufacturing: the case of lightweight aircraft components (2016) J.

In the current study, the morphology of the parasite is evaluated to explain the basic structure of the parasite parasitizing a human body in Iraq, including the adult worm and the egg stage which is considered the diagnostic stage for the detection of the intestinal parasite in the stool sample. The assessment of the adult worm showed that it was white in color and had a pseudo-segmented shape, lacked the digestive system or alimentary canal, and was 133 mm in length. The anterior end bore the cylindrical-shaped proboscis armed with 13 rows of hooks, each with 7–8 hooks and measured 0.42 × 0.21 mm. The egg was oval-shaped, covered with three envelops, contained hooks, and was 0.083 to 0.116 mm in length. The current study was performed on a single specimen that was revealed to be female during the examination. © 2020, Indian Society for Parasitology.Acanthocephalan; Iraq; Moniliformis moniliformis; Morphologyadult; animal experiment; animal tissue; article; digestive system; feces; female; human; intestine parasite; Iraq; Iraqi; Moniliformis; nonhuman; worm eggAbdullah, B.H., (1988) A Study on Parasites of Some Aquatic Bird in Basrah, , M.Sc.

The optical gain, spontaneous emission rate, and lineshape function are calculated using non-Markovian relaxation compared with Markovian one. Gain is then connected with the rate equations model to obtain a dB gain, output power, and shot noise in these SOAs. GaN peaked at 351 nm which is preferred in optical coherence tomography applications. InN is peaked at 1028 nm which can be used in gas detection and environmental pollution monitoring. Both structures studied have high gain and low noise and nearly equivalent TE and TM gain which makes them adequate for the use in both these two modes.

The aim of the present study was to test the ability of some Romanian peach cultivars (Prunus persica (L.) Batsch) to be propagated in vitro and then to be cultivated on their own roots. Ten peach cultivars were included in the experiment: Three dwarf cultivars ('Valerica', 'Cecilia', 'Dan') a standard control - 'Redhaven' and six commercial cultivars ('Raluca', 'Monica', 'Florin', 'Filip', 'Mimi' and 'Catherine sel. 1'). Two explants: Shoot-tips and nodes were taken at 0.5-1 cm length, sterilized with sodium hypochlorite (10%) for 15-20 min and then cultivated on Murashige & Skoog media with different growth hormones balance. The growth chamber parameters were maintained at 22°C, 2000-2500 lx and 80-85% relative humidity. The number of shoots formed, shoots length, number of leaves/shoots were analyzed. The results showed that the data were influenced by the cultivars in response to tissue culture technique with differences between the dwarf cultivars and the standard ones. Explant type also influenced the peach in vitro culture performance. © 2021 International Society for Horticultural Science.

Batsch) is one of the most popular stone fruits and includes several cultivars producing edible drupes with economic importance. Commercially largely produced in Mediterranean and, to a lesser extent, in continental climatic conditions, peach has received extensive attention in the last 30 years, a fact that has led to the expansion of cultivated areas and the diversification of available cultivars. Research carried out in USA, Canada, France, Italy, Spain and Romania has led to a large number of cultivars with remarkable agro-productive characteristics. Several breeding programs with different aims annually release large numbers of new cultivars. The aim of this study was to present the most important studies on in vitro micro-propagation of peach around the world, as well as to identify the most important achievements and prospects in the development of peach tissue culture in Romania. © 2021 International Society for Horticultural Science.

The air chiller model was designed and fabricated with all measuring devices in the AL-Muthanna city environment. The practical tests were carried out with a change in the factors governing air coolant performance to investigate their effects on the properties of the system. The study covered the values of the cooling water flow rate at (2l/min) and the evaporator water temperature (2.5 to 5.69 °C) and the return water temperature in the reservoir ranged from 11.6 to 19.2 °C). The greatest coefficient of thermal performance in the system was (5) while the lowest coefficient of thermal performance was (3.6) and that agreement to the experimental studies of this type of system. The results showed that the average guidance in the consumption of air-chilled energy by using the water tank and Freon R-134a was about 13% to 32% compared to the conventional air conditioner. All through the results indicated that the addition of a cooling stage to the conventional cooler inside the testing room results in lowering the temperature (dry temperature) by (27%) and reduced the relative humidity by (36%). © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Air-conditioning; Air-cooled chillers; Coefficient of performance; Humidity reduction; WaterAir conditioning; Cooling systems; Cooling water; Flow of water; Reservoirs (water); Temperature; Water tanks; Chilled water; Cooling stage; Cooling water flow rates; Measuring device; Practical tests; Return water; Thermal Performance; Water temperatures; Air navigationStanford, III., Herbert, W., (2003) HVAC water chillers and cooling towers fundamentals, application, and operation; Chan, K.

Four types of coolants have been used in this study starting with air as a baseline to compare its thermal performance with pure phase change material (PCM) which was paraffin wax and nanoparticles-enhanced phase change material (NEPCM) which were (Silicon carbide (Sic)-PCM and Diamond-PCM) with volume fraction values of (1, 3, and 5%). On the heat sink base, a constant and uniform heat flux of (8000, 10000, 12000, and 14000W.m-2) is applied. Numerical simulations have been performed to investigate the effect of nanoparticle material and concentrations of nanoparticles on cooling performance of heat sink. The findings elucidated the cooling performance of MHS is enhanced with PCM compared with air and suspension nanoparticles lead to improve the thermal conductivity of (NEPCM) comparing with pure PCM, that causing expedite the melting process and enhancement of cooling performance. Also, as the concentration of nanoparticles increased, the heat transfer rate for (NEPCM) enhanced and decreasing the time of the melting process. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.3D modeling; Cooling; Heat flux; Heat sinks; Metal melting; Nanoparticles; Phase change materials; Silicon carbide; Thermal conductivity; Conjugated heat transfer; Cooling performance; Dispersion of nano particles; Micro channel heat sinks; Nanoparticle materials; Physical characteristics; Silicon carbides (SiC); Thermal Performance; Heat transfer performanceTuckerman, D.

Virtual network has been looked as a helping future network technology, during multiple diversified virtual networks that can work on a participated infrastructure. So, to study and exam the management mechanism of future network, we try to improve and accomplish a model of networking operation for system virtual network. The model basically simulates a network multi-layer topology that integrates a virtual network into a virtual network system (VNS). Moreover, it also possible to simulate the operating status and network error. The validation results of model show three advantages that can effectively simulate the virtual network (VS) (a) Simulate the errors of both virtual networks and the primary network (PN), and the selection results depend on the simulated (b) simulate and test multilayer network topology model (c) working virtual network establish tests graphically and providing comparison through embedding various algorithms. finally, in order to make it easier to assess network systems beyond current simulators' competence field, a new virtual network simulation model is designed and performed. © 2021 IEEE.Model; Simulating; System VNS; Virtual NetworkTopology; Virtual reality; Current simulators; Design and simulation; Management mechanisms; Multi-layer network; Network virtualization; Operating models; Primary networks; Validation results; Network layersBega, D., Gramaglia, M., Bernardos Cano, C.J., Banchs, A., Costa-Perez, X., Toward the network of the future: From enabling technologies to 5G concepts (2017) Transactions on Emerging Telecommunications Technologies, 28 (8), p. e3205; Sun, J., Zhu, G., Sun, G., Liao, D., Li, Y., Sangaiah, A.K., Chang, V., A reliability-Aware approach for resource efficient virtual network function deployment (2018) IEEE Access, (6), pp. 18238-18250; Jahani, A., Khanli, L.M., Hagh, M.T., Badamchizadeh, M.A., EE-CTA: Energy efficient, concurrent and topology-Aware virtual network embedding as a multi-objective optimization problem (2019) Computer Standards & Interfaces; Hailiang, L., Guangmin, H., Feng, Q., Zhihao, Y., Network topology inference based on traceroute and tomography (2009) 2009 WRI International Conference on Communications and Mobile Computing, 2, pp. 486-490. , , January, IEEE; Fischer, A., Botero, J.F., Beck, M.T., De Meer, H., Hesselbach, X., (2013) Virtual Network Embedding: A Survey.

The task of the Secure TE-FRR-TP was presented in the optimization form where the novelty of the flow-based model is concerned with the enhancement of load balancing conditions and bandwidth protection during fast rerouting that also considers the compromise probability of network links. The model analysis has been conducted and the main features of the Secure TE-FRR-TP have been explained. Additionally, the comparison of routing solutions with different parameters of the functional dependence of weighting coefficients in load balancing condition on the probability of compromise has been performed, which has shown that sensitivity of routing solutions to the values of probabilities of the link compromise was regulated by the choice of this model parameters. © 2021 IEEE.Cyber resilience; Fast ReRoute; Probability of compromise; Redundancy; Traffic Engineering; Traffic PolicingBalancing; Engineering research; Probability; Fast rerouting; Flow-based models; Functional dependence; Model analysis; Model parameters; Traffic Engineering; Traffic policing; Weighting coefficient; Computer aided designKiser, Q., (2020) Computer Networking and Cybersecurity: A Guide to Understanding Communications Systems, Internet Connections, and Network Security along with Protection from Hacking and Cyber Security Threats, , Kindle Edition; Dodd, A.Z., (2019) The Essential Guide to Telecommunications (Essential Guide Series), , Prentice Hall; Gupta, S., (2018) Security and QoS in Wireless Sensor Networks, , 1st Edition. eBooks2go Inc; Blokdyk, G., (2018) Software-Defined WAN SD-WAN A Clear and Concise Reference, , 5STARCooks; Musman, S., Assessing prescriptive improvements to a system's cyber security and resilience (2016) 2016 Annual IEEE Systems Conference (SysCon), pp. 1-6. , Orlando, FL; Rak, J., Papadimitriou, D., Niedermayer, H., Romero, P., Information-driven network resilience: Research challenges and perspectives (2017) Optical Switching and Networking, 23, pp. 156-178. , January; Girao-Silva, R., Gomes, T., Martins, L., Tipper, D., Alashaikh, A., A centrality-based heuristic for network design to support availability differentiation (2020) 2020 16th International Conference on the Design of Reliable Communication Networks DRCN 2020, pp. 1-7. , Milano, Italy; Merling, D., Braun, W., Menth, M., Efficient data plane protection for SDN (2018) 2018 4th IEEE Conference on Network Softwarization and Workshops (NetSoft), pp. 10-18. , Montreal, QC; Machado, C.C., Granville, L.Z., Schaeffer-Filho, A., ANSwer: Combining NFV and SDN features for network resilience strategies (2016) 2016 IEEE Symposium on Computers and Communication (ISCC), pp. 391-396. , Messina; Yeremenko, O., Lemeshko, O., Persikov, A., Secure routing in reliable networks: Proactive and reactive approach Conference on Computer Science and Information Technologies (CSIT 2017: Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing II), 689, pp. 631-655. , Springer; Lemeshko, O., Yeremenko, O., Yevdokymenko, M., Shapovalova, A., Hailan, A.M., Mersni, A., Cyber resilience approach based on traffic engineering fast reroute with policing (2019) 2019 10th IEEE International Conference on Intelligent Data Acquisition and Advanced Computing Systems: Technology and Applications (IDAACS), pp. 117-122. , Metz, France; Lemeshko, O., Yeremenko, O., Enhanced method of fast re-routing with load balancing in software-defined networks (2017) Journal of ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING, 68 (6), pp. 444-454. , December; Lemeshko, O., Yeremenko, O., Tariki, N., Solution for the default gateway protection within fault-tolerant routing in an IP network (2017) International Journal of Electrical and Computer Engineering Systems, 8 (1), pp. 19-26; Barakabitze, A.A., Sun, L., Mkwawa, I., Ifeachor, E., Multipath protections and dynamic link recoveryin softwarized 5g networks using segment routing (2019) 2019 IEEE Globecom Workshops (GC Wkshps), pp. 1-6. , Waikoloa, HI, USA; Lemeshko, O., Shapovalova, A., Al-Dulaimi, A.M.K., Yeremenko, O., Yevdokymenko, M., Flow-based routing model with load balancing under network security parameters (2020) Information and Telecommunication Sciences, 11 (2), pp. 44-50; Bruzgiene, R., Quality-driven schemes enhancing resilience of wireless networks under weather disruptions (2020) Rak J., Hutchison D.

High-energy short-wavelength ultraviolet B (UVB) is biologically effective, influencing a range of dermal processes, including the potentially beneficial production of vitamin D. In addition to the damaging effects of UVB, the longer wavelength and more abundant ultraviolet A (UVA) has been shown to be linked to an increased risk of skin cancer. To evaluate this risk requires the monitoring of the solar UVA globally on a time repetitive basis in order to provide an understanding of the environmental solar UVA irradiance and resulting exposures that humans may receive during their normal daily activities. Satellite-based platforms, with the appropriate validation against ground-based instrumentation, can provide global monitoring of the solar UVA environment. Two satellite platforms that currently provide data on the terrestrial UVA environment are the ozone monitoring instrument (OMI) and the global ozone monitoring experiment (GOME-2). The objectives of this review are to provide a summary of the OMI and GOME-2 satellite-based platforms for monitoring the terrestrial UVA environment and to compare the remotely sensed UVA data from these platforms to that from ground-based instrumentation. © 2021 by the authors.

The metapneumovirus (hMPV) is associated with both upper and lower respiratory tract infections among infants and children. Throat swabs from 250 hospitalized children with fever and respiratory distress were evaluated for hMPV and RSV. RNA extract for diagnosis of viruses by was conducted. Among 250 children evaluated in this study, 60 cases had RSV (38 RSV-A + 19 RSV-B + 3 mix infections of RSV-A and RSVB), while 25 cases had hMPV. Thirty two of the RSV-infected patients were males and 28 were females, while 13 of the hMPV-infected children were males and 12 were females .The RSV infections were detected in mainly less than one year old children and hMPV infections had mainly in more than one year old children. Both RSV and hMPV infections had occurred mainly during winter and spring seasons. It can be concluding that the respiratory syncytial virus was the major cause of acute respiratory infection in children under one-year of age while human metapneumovirus had a low prevalence in this group. © 2021 Ecological Society of India.

Correspondingly, the term ‘security’ shows unsolvable debates over its areas of application and anticipated meanings in as much as ideological elements are concerned in socio-political works. The current study provides a more textual analysis of resolutions on security as an issue requiring emergency politics. The aim is to find out discursive evidence of whether, or not, the Security Council has securitized threats and suggested extraordinary measures to ensure human rights. The study, also, provides critique of the interconnectedness between discursive, social and political engagement in the discussion of international security threats/measures. For this aim, I have adopted a multidisciplinary approach falling within the mantle of critical discourse analysis for the analysis of the Security Council Resolutions (2001-2019). The results revealed that there was limited discursive means available in the resolutions that ensured the protection of human rights norms, which, on the contrary, put people’s lives at risk. © 2021 Asian E F L Journal Press.

The study examines the interface between knowledge, meaning and social practices in terms of text and context when speakers cognitively reconceptualize terrorism discourse as a professional practice and maintain their stance over social issues. Drawing on a multidisciplinary approach of discourse analysis and corpus linguistics, the study sets out to analyse the discursive representation of terrorism in TED talks delivered between 2002 and 2019, focusing on explanation strategies of definition, description, denomination and metaphor. The results revealed that TED talks’ discourse was a less popularised genre regarding terrorism, marked by specialised terms of traditional right discourse of military actions, and impersonal reference for private intentions of building up expert identity. © 2021TED Talks, Terrorism, Popularization discourse, Discourse analysis, Corpus linguistics © 2021Corpus linguistics; Discourse analysis; Popularization discourse; TED Talks; TerrorismAchugar, M., What We Remember: the Construction of Memory in Military Discourse (2008), John Benjamins Publishing Company Amsterdam; Allen, W., Australian political discourse: pronominal choice in campaign speeches (2006) Selected Papers from the 2006 Conference of the Australian Linguistic Society, , http://espace.library.uq.edu.au/eserv/UQ:12794/ALLEN_W_ALS2006.pdf; Almaged, S., forthcoming.

It has been found that the properties of the random laser are affected by these three parameters significantly, as it was observed that the emission spectrum reached its best value when adding the of polyvinylpyrrolidone polymer. As for the FWHM and the laser threshold, their value decreased from 38 to 35 nm and from 0.71 to 0.68 A respectively after adding the polymeric material. These results were achieved at concentration of 5×10–4 M and cell thickness 0.1 cm. Improving the properties of random lasers is considered a significant step in creating optical devices useful in medical applications and biosensors. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC part of Springer Nature.Nanoparticles; Picosecond laser; Polymers; Random lasingEmission spectroscopy; Full width at half maximum; Laser beams; Medical applications; Cell thickness; Dye concentration; Emission spectrums; Laser threshold; Lasing threshold; Poly vinyl pyrrolidone; Random lasers; Three parameters; PolymersCao, H., Zhao, Y.G., Ho, S.T., Seelig, E.W., Wang, Q.H., Chang, R.P.H., Random laser action in semiconductor powder (1999) Phys.

Molecules are attractive candidates for thermoelectricity because they can be synthesised with the atomic precision, and intriguing properties due to quantum effects such as quantum interference can be induced at room temperature. Molecules are also expected to show a low thermal conductance that is needed to enhance the performance of thermoelectric materials. Recently, the technological challenge of measuring the thermal conductance of single molecules was overcome. Therefore, it is timely to develop strategies to reduce their thermal conductance for high performance thermoelectricity. In this paper and for the first time, we exploit systematically the effect of anchor groups on the phonon thermal conductance of oligo (phenylene ethynylene) (OPE3) molecules connected to gold electrodes via pyridyl, thiol, methyl sulphide and carbodithioate anchor groups. We show that thermal conductance is affected significantly by the choice of anchor group. The lowest and highest thermal conductances were obtained in the OPE3 with methyl sulphide and carbodithioate anchor groups, respectively. The thermal conductance of OPE3 with thiol anchor was higher than that with methyl sulphide but lower than the OPE3 with pyridyl anchor group. © 2021 by the authors.

In recent years, EMG signals have been used as a popular tool to generate device control commands for rehabilitation equipment, such as robotic prostheses. This intention of this study was to design an EMG signal-based expert model for hand-grasp classification that could enhance prosthetic hand movements for people with disabilities. The study, thus, aimed to introduce an innovative framework for recognising hand movements using EMG signals. The proposed framework consists of logarithmic spectrogram-based graph signal (LSGS), AdaBoost k-means (AB-k-means) and an ensemble of feature selection (FS) techniques. First, the LSGS model is applied to analyse and extract the desirable features from EMG signals. Then, to assist in selecting the most influential features, an ensemble FS is added to the design. Finally, in the classification phase, a novel classification model, named AB-k-means, is developed to classify the selected EMG features into different hand grasps. The proposed hybrid model, LSGS-based scheme is evaluated with a publicly available EMG hand movement dataset from the UCI repository. Using the same dataset, the LSGS-AB-k-means design model is also benchmarked with several classifications including the state-of-the-art algorithms. The results demonstrate that the proposed model achieves a high classification rate and demonstrates superior results compared to several previous research works. This study, therefore, establishes that the proposed model can accurately classify EMG hand grasps and can be implemented as a control unit with low cost and a high classification rate. © 2020 Elsevier B.V.AB-k-means;

The synthesized catalyst samples were analyzed by different characterization techniques including powder XRD, VSM, FESEM, EDX and DRS. The Fe0@PEDOT\POTs magnetic nanocomposites have been investigated as efficient heterogeneous nanocatalysts for catalytic oxidative desulfurization (ODS) of model and real gasoil fuels. The catalytic ODS was carried out at various experimental conditions to assess the influences of individual reaction variables, such as nanocatalyst dosage, sulfur content (in model fuel), reaction time and reaction temperature. At the same experimental conditions, Keggin POTs-based catalyst (Fe0@PEDOT\PW12) exhibited higher desulfurization activities (98.6% and 93.2% for model fuel and real gasoil, respectively) than Dawson- POTs-based (Fe0@PEDOT\P2W18) catalyst (93.1% and 84% for model fuel and real gasoil, respectively). According to the results, the Fe0@PEDOT\PW12 reusable nanocatalyst can retain high desulfurization efficiency after six reaction cycles. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd.Fe0@PEDOT\POTs; Gasoil; Magnetic nanocatalyst; Model fuel; Oxidative desulfurization; PolyoxotungstatesDesulfurization; Fuel oils; Iron; Nanocatalysts; Nanocomposites; Sodium compounds; Synthesis (chemical); Catalytic oxidative desulfurizations; Characterization techniques; Desulfurization efficiency; Experimental conditions; Magnetic nanocomposites; Poly(3 ,4 ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT); Poly-3 ,4-ethylenedioxythiophene; Zero-valent iron nanoparticles; Catalyst activityYang, N., Jiang, H., Sun, B., Zhang, Y., Huang, L., Sun, Z., Yang, Z., Magnetically recyclable Fe3O4@SiO2/Bi2WO6/Bi2S3with visible-light- driven photocatalytic oxidative desulfurization (2019) Mater.

Our finding demonstrated that the 5-FU has insulator behavior, but 6-MP, CP and GB have semiconductor behaviors. Results disclosed that all anticancer drugs are needed to lower energy to donating/accepting an electron to become cation/anion due to these molecules have a higher value of the negative ionization potential and electron affinity. In addition, these molecules have a higher value of the electrochemical hardness and lower value of the electronegative, which means these molecules have higher ability to electron transfer. There is a weak interaction between these drug molecules with other surrounding types or molecules due to there are higher value and lower value of the chemical potential and electrophilic, respectively. For optical properties, we found out that 5-FU and 6-MP anticancer drugs situated within the visible light region but GB and CP located within infrared region. Moreover, the λmax takes value from 314.84 nm for 5-FU (S3) to 2265.20 nm for GB (S1). Also, the electron is easily to move from HOMO to LUMO orbitals in the 5-FU molecule due to it has a higher electronic transition energy compared to other anticancer drugs. © 2020 Elsevier LtdAnticancer drug molecules; DFT; DOS; Electronic band gap; Electronic transition energy; Total energyCalculations; Electron affinity; Electron transport properties; Ionization potential; Molecules; Optical properties; Polymer films; Electron transfer; Electronic and optical properties; Electronic transition energies; First-principles study; Semiconductor behavior; Time-dependent DFT; Visible light region; Weak interactions; Density functional theoryThe authors would like to thank the Iraqi ministry of higher education and scientific research for its care of scientific researchers through the Iraqi virtual science library (IVSL).

Through the use of two systems of air conditioners of the same type (split-type air conditioner) with a capacity of 12,000 Btu/h where the first system is used a conventional air conditioner refers to (CAC).It cooled by the air with a condenser pipe length is about 13 m and the diameter is about 6.3 mm, meanwhile, the other system (modified air conditioner) refers to (MAC).It cooled by burying the condenser pipes inside the ground within a depth of about 3.5 m and a length of 27.5 m with a diameter of the pipe of 6.3 mm which used the ground as a heat sink. It is known that the temperature of the ground is constant almost depth of 3 m which it is measured at the Nasiriyah city and it found to be 26.1 °C around the year, therefore; The earth has a lower temperature compared to the temperature of the surrounding at Summers season and vice versa so that it happened at Winter season, that makes the ground to become a good heat sink for ground heat exchangers.The results of the two systems which performed from the end of April 2019 until the end of July 2019 showed that the coefficient of performance of MAC, it is higher than that for CAC with values of (6.1–8.48) and (5.5–7.1), respectively, Also it is found that the modified system is consuming lower electrical energy.

Vehicle to Vehicle (V2V) and Vehicle to Infrastructure (V2I) are a subset of ITS widely used to solve different issues associated with transportation in cities. Road traffic congestion is still the most significant problem that causes important economic and productivity damages, as well as increasing environmental effects. This paper introduces an early traffic congestion alert system in a vehicular network, using the internet of things (IoT) and fuzzy logic, for optimizing the traffic and increasing the flow. The proposed system detects critical driving conditions, or any emergency situation blocking the road, and broadcasts remote warnings to the following vehicles. Since not all vehicles are equipped with new technologies, Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) fixed on the roads displays the alert to warn the other vehicles which have neither communication nor sensors. The system was designed with Raspberry Pi 3 Model B equipped with sensors and GPS module to emulate real-world vehicles. The results and observations collected during the experiments showed that the proposed system is able to monitor the road conditions, detect the emergency situation, and broadcast a warning message to the approaching vehicles. © 2021 University of Baghdad-College of Science.

Different PWM types have been implemented such as Sinusoidal PWM (SPWM), Space Vector (SVPWM), carrier phase shifted SPWM (CPS-SPWM) using different FPGA boards. In this paper, we designed and implemented a new circuit of a Modified Sinusoidal PWM (MSPWM) on FPGA. The circuit was described in VHDL and implemented on ZYNQ-7000 FPGA board. Before the implementation, the design was simulated using MATLAB Simulink where the MSPWM was used to control a single-phase DC to AC inverter to study the performance in terms of Total Harmonics Distortion (THD) reduction compared to SPWM. Two reference sinusoidal signals with 180-degree phase shift were generated using 8-bit accumulator and 64 values Look Up Table (LUT) based on Direct Digital Synthesizer (DDS) technique. They were compared with triangular carrier signal which has a one-third zero values at a specific interval of its period to produce four PWM signals. The resource utilization table indicates that only 9% of the LUT, 0.2% of the FF (flip flop), and 6.25% of the buffers have been used for implementing the MSPWM. © 2021 IEEE.AC/DC inverter; FPGA; Modified Sinusoidal PWM; THD; Total Harmonic Distortion; VHDLFlip flop circuits; MATLAB; Pulse width modulation; Table lookup; Vector spaces; Voltage control; Carrier phase-shifted SPWM; Direct digital synthesizer; FPGA-based implementation; MATLAB/ SIMULINK; Reference signals; Resource utilizations; Sinusoidal signals; Total harmonics distortions; Field programmable gate arrays (FPGA)Vilathgamuwa, M., Duggal, B.R., Kok, J.Y., Kang, B.H., FPGAbased single-phase PWM rectifiers with high power factor (1998) PEDES 1998-1998 Int.

The electronic properties of the 5-FU/pristine ZnONS and 5-FU/metal-doped ZnONS are studied by using DFT method, which implemented in the quantum espresso package. Metal impurities are utilized to recognize the suitability and optimization of the adsorption 5-FU on the ZnONS superficial. For metal-doped ZnONS and 5-FU/metal-doped ZnONS, we observed that the shape of the electronic band structure is changed. So, the electronic band gap and Fermi level are reduced and shifted up, respectively compared to the pristine ZnONS, but they still have semiconductor behaviors. Moreover, all complex structures become more stable and lower reactive due to the total energy increased. Results disclosed a weaker interaction between the pristine ZnONS and 5-FU, but there is a stronger interaction between the 5-FU and metal-doped ZnONS. We detected very exciting results. The adsorption process is depended on the type of the impurities and the distance between the 5-FU molecule and metal-doped ZnONS. So, it became stronger when we made the distance between this molecule and metal-doped ZnONS is smaller. Additionally, all structures have a lower and higher electron affinity and chemical hardness, respectively. That means these structures needed a higher energy to donating/accepting an electron to be cation/anion. Besides, there is a great interaction between the pristine ZnONS and 5-FU molecule in the present (Cu, Au, and Ag) impurities between them, but other metal impurities made a weak interaction between them. Then, we can utilize the new substrate (metal-doped ZnONS structures) as a carrier to the 5-FU drug molecule. © 2020 Elsevier B.V.5-Fluorouracil anticancer drug; Adsorption energies; DFT; Electronic band gap; Total energy; ZnONSThe authors would like to thank the Iraqi ministry of higher education and scientific research for its care of scientific researchers through the Iraqi virtual science library (IVSL).

Thus, fibres are embedded in concrete to improve its ductility. However, pulling out steel fibres from concrete structures is one of the most encountered issues in the fiber-reinforced concrete, which hinders using their maximum capacities. Objectives: Thus, closed steel fibres (square shape) were incorporated into concrete mixes to evaluate their impacts against the pulling-out effects and assess the feasibility of applying Closed Steel Fibres (CSFs) on the fresh and hardened concrete properties. Hooked end and straight steel fibres were also investigated for comparison. Methods: The utilized steel fibres were incorporated with lengths of 20, 30, and 40 mm, and volume fractions of 0.25%, 0.50%, and 0.75%. Silica Fume (SF) was involved in the fibre-reinforced concrete mixtures at 7% of the cement weight. Results: Paper outcomes stated that the inclusion of steel fibres involved different impacts on the concrete compressive strength depending on the applied fibre geometries and content. Conclusion: CSFs exhibited better performance against the pulling-out effect from the surrounding concrete structure than those of hooked end and straight steel fibres. However, the addition of CSFs has increased the concrete permeability due to their poor space-filling capacity. © 2021 Al-Qutaifi & Bagheri.Closed steel fibres; Compressive strength; Fibre-reinforced concrete; Flexural strength; Silica fume; Splitting tensile strengthAprianti, E., A huge number of artificial waste material can be supplementary cementitious material (SCM) for concrete production-A review part II (2017) J.

Relying on the conventional techniques to test patients such as RT -PCR has two major drawbacks; a long time to get results and a lack of test kits. Therefore, data mining with machine learning techniques has been suggested to investigate covid-19. In this work, chest x-ray image-based covid-19 detection approach is proposed. Three types of x-ray images Covid-19, Pneumonia, and Normal, are used in two frameworks: image visualization and image segmentation. First, the x-ray samples are visualized using histograms to analyze the pixel-value distributions. The visualization approach helps covid-19 specialists to discover the intensity level of infection by examining the corresponding histograms. Second, a segmentation approach is developed with a k-mean algorithm to provide extra image tuning for infected areas. Three different centroids are used to provide different tuning granularity levels. The suggested frameworks give a fast and reliable methodology to help physicians to decide whether there is a virus or not in the x-ray sample. This is done statistically by histograms and visually by monitoring the segmented infected areas. © 2021 IEEE.Chest x-ray; Clustering; Covid-19; K-mean; Machine learning; Unsupervised LearningData mining; Image segmentation; Machine learning; Viruses; Visualization; Breakings; Chest X-ray image; Chest x-rays; Clusterings; Conventional techniques; Covid-19; Daily lives; High rate; K-means; Unsupervised learning; K-means clusteringJain, R., Gupta, M., Taneja, S., Hemanth, D.J., Deep learningbased detection and analysis of COVID-19 on chest X-ray images (2020) Applied Intelligence; Wang, X., A Weakly-Supervised Framework for COVID-19 Classification and Lesion Localization From Chest CT (2020) IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging, 39 (8), pp. 2615-2625. , Aug; Mei, X., Artificial intelligence-enabled rapid diagnosis of patients with COVID-19 (2020) Nature medicine, 26 (8), pp. 1224-1228; Phan, L.T., Importation and human-to-human transmission of a novel coronavirus in Vietnam (2020) N.

Alcohol septal ablation is a treatment option for severely symptomatic drug-refractory hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy. This study aimed to determine the outcome of alcohol septal ablation in 20 patients from a single center in Iraq. Methods: Twenty patients with age less than 60 years had undergone alcohol septal ablation between May 2013 and February 2019 at Nasiriya Heart Centre. Patients were selected for alcohol septal ablation depending on the clinical and angiographic suitability of septal perforator branches. Clinical, electrocardiographic, and echocardiographic parameters were evaluated in the periprocedural period and during follow-up. Results: Only three patients (15 %) remained in NYHA class III after 6 months of follow-up, one of them underwent repeated alcohol septal ablation with successful improvement at 6 months follow-up, and the other two patients awaiting reevaluation at 6 months to decide for repeating ASA. Significant reduction of left ventricle outflow gradients (LVOTG) and septal thickness were observed during 6 months follow-up. Beyond 6 months, except for 3 patients, there was no further decrease in either septal thickness or LVOTG noted. The incidence of right bundle branch block (RBBB) after ASA was 45 % % and 3 patients (15 %) needed PPM implantation. There was no cardiovascular death on follow-up. Conclusion: Alcohol septal ablation is a safe and effective option for severely symptomatic patients, less than 60m years with HOCM because of its low risk and its significant clinical, echocardiographic, and hemodynamic improvement. The overall in-hospital adverse cardiovascular events were low and few patients required in-hospital permanent pacemaker implantation. © 2021 SOLEN s.r.o..

Variable factors including infectious pathogen can predispose for this exacerbation. The aim of this study is to evaluate the role of intestinal protozoa in COPD exacerbation. A total of 56 patients with COPD were included in this study. Patients were categorized into two groups based on the frequency of exacerbation during the last 6 months: those with ≤1 exacerbation (32 patients) and those with ≥2 exacerbations (24 patients). Stool specimens from each patient were collected two times (one week interval) examined for intestinal parasite. In univariate analysis, rural residence and parasitic infection were more common among patients with frequent exacerbation (45.83% and 33.33%, respectively) than patients with non-frequent exacerbation (18.75% and 9.38%, respectively) with significant differences. However, in multivariate analysis, only body mass index >25 kg/m2 (OR=4.59, 95%CI=1.18-17.86, P=0.028) and parasitic infection (OR=5.51, 95%CI=1.01-30.18, P=0.049) were independently associated with COPD exacerbation. These data indicate a significant association between frequent COPD exacerbation and infection with some intestinal protozoa. However, the cause-effect relationship is debatable.chronic obstructive lung disease; complication; disease exacerbation; human; Disease Progression; Humans; Pulmonary Disease, Chronic ObstructiveNLM (Medline)2299063135439406EnglishAnn ParasitolArticleFinalScopus2-s2.0-85128793930

Increasing grain output by utilising all available resources, including water type, was the goal of this experiment, which was carried out in Thi-Qar, southern Iraq, to examine the reaction of wheat cultivars to three different types of irrigation water. Three tolerant certified wheat cultivars (Aba 99, Buhuth 22, and Tammuz) were treated in an RCBD factorial experiment using three types of irrigation water (Tigris River water, Euphrates River water, and Drainage River water). When compared to other cultivars, the Aba 99 cultivar was the most vulnerable to salinity, with the highest proline concentration (1.657 g g-1 dry weight) and the lowest grain yield (0.229 kg per m2). The drainage water had the highest proline concentration (1.849 g g-1 dry weight) and yielded the least grain. © 2021 DAV College.

From petrol filed, the blood of 53 individuals being exposed and other blood individual’s samples of 53 as group being unexposed were collected. Full blood picture analysis was done utilizing hematology analyzer that fully automated in Nassriy hospital. Level of cadmium (Cd) and Mercury (Hg) were assessed. The results displayed significant rising in level of Cd and Hg in refinery field workers. Additionally, most biomarkers as blood (out of 24 biomarkers) were not changed significantly in both study groups. Nevertheless, RBC, WBC, HB and PCV% were increased significantly in oil field workers comparison to non-oil field workers. Furthermore, the total platelets number (PLT) was declined significantly comparing to the control. No significant relations were found between the work duration, age and all parameters as blood. It can be concluded that exposure to petrol of a potential for inducing blood disease among working people at Basarh fields besides no significant changes for most blood workers biomarkers at field in comparing to the office working group as control. We also reported the increase in ALKA and ALT in filed attendance workers comparing to the control although, no change noticed in urea and serum proteins and other parameters comprised in the current study. Based on the results, occupations in oil filed in Iraq needs more attention and tests to make sure they are safe. Lack of secretariat and safety procedures in oil filed and diminished of periodical physical exams certainly will lead to numerous health effects on workers and their families. © 2021 Iranian Society of Ichthyology.Benzene; Blood parameters; Oil field; SmokingAbou-ElWafa, H.S., Albadry, A.A., El-Gilany, A.H., Bazeed, F.B., Some biochemical and hematological parameters among petrol station attendants: a comparative study (2015) BioMed Research International, 2015; Abubakar, M.B., AbdullAh, W.Z., Sulaiman, S.A., Ang, B.S., The effects of exposure to petrol vapours on growth, haematological parameters and oxidative markers in sprague-dawley male rats (2015) The Malaysian Journal of Medical Sciences: MJMS, 22 (1), p. 23; Akintunde, W.O., Olugbenga, O.A., Olufemi, O.O., Some Adverse Effects of Used Engine Oil (Common Waste Pollutant) On Reproduction of Male Sprague Dawley Rats (2015) Open Access Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciences, 3 (1), pp. 46-51; Al-Saad, H.T., (2016) Study the Air Pollution in West Qurna-2 Oil Field Southern Iraq, 4, pp. 416-430; Al-Saeed, A.F.H., Mohammed, A.T., Oral health status in relation to selected salivary elements among a group of gasoline stations workers (2013) Journal of Baghdad College of Dentistry, 25 (3), pp. 125-129; Babalola, O.O., Adekunle, I.M., Okonji, R.E., Ejim-Eze, E.E., Terebo, O., Selected heavy metals in blood of male Nigerian smokers (2007) Pakistan Journal of Biological Ssciences: PJBS, 10 (20), pp. 3730-3733; Bast-Pettersen, R., Ellingsen, D.G., Efskind, J., Jordskogen, R., Thomassen, Y., A neurobehavioral study of chloralkali workers after the cessation of exposure to mercury vapor (2005) Neurotoxicology, 26 (3), pp. 427-437; Beiglböck, C., Steineck, T., Tataruch, F., Ruf, T., Environmental cadmium induces histopathological changes in kidneys of roe deer (2002) Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry: An International Journal, 21 (9), pp. 1811-1816; Bjørklund, G., Dadar, M., Mutter, J., Aaseth, J., The toxicology of mercury: Current research and emerging trends (2017) Environmental Research, 159, pp. 545-554; Budnik, L.T., Casteleyn, L., Paschalidou, A.K., Kassomenos, P., Pollution in living and working environments, climate variability, and their impact on non-communicable disease burden (2019) Science of the Total Environment, 660, pp. 593-594; Casarett, L.J., Doull, J., (2010) Casarett & Doull's essentials of toxicology, , McGraw-Hill Medical; Chen, H., Li, Y., Ma, X., Guo, L., He, Y., Ren, Z., Zhang, Z., Analysis of potential strategies for cadmium stress tolerance revealed by transcriptome analysis of upland cotton (2019) Scientific Reports, 9 (1), pp. 1-13; Chen, QY., DesMarais, T., Costa, M., Metals and Mechanisms of Carcinogenesis (2019) Annual Review of Pharmacology and Toxicology, 59, pp. 537-554; D'Andrea, M.A., Reddy, G.K., The Development of Long-Term Adverse Health Effects in Oil Spill Cleanup Workers of the Deepwater Horizon Offshore Drilling Rig Disaster (2018) Frontiers in Public Health, 6, pp. 117-117; De La Rosa-Acosta, M., Jiménez-Collazo, J., Maldonado-Román, M., Malavé-Llamas, K., Musa-Wasil, J.C., Bacteria as potential indicators of heavy metal contamination in a tropical mangrove and the implications on environmental and human health (2015) Journal of Tropical Life Science, 5 (3), p. 100; Drake, P.L., Rojas, M., Reh, C.M., Mueller, C.A., Jenkins, F.M., Occupational exposure to airborne mercury during gold mining operations near El Callao, Venezuela (2001) International Archives of Occupational and Environmental Health, 74 (3), pp. 206-212; Enayah, S.H., Diagnosis of the problems which facing the researchers during studying In vitro lead toxicity (2018) Medical Journal of Babylon, 15 (1), p. 5; Freedman, J.

A total of 375 patients (211 males, 164 females) in Thi-Qar Province, southern of Iraq were examined. Twenty-four (16 males, 8 females) patients confirm to have giardiosis and 20 healthy control group were withdrawn (5) ml of venous blood to conduct immunological tests to determine the quantitative for level of IL-2, IL-4 and IL-10 in a manner (ELISA). The result showed, the overall infection rate of G. lamblia was 6.40%, according to gender, higher infection rate was recorded in males 7.58% compared to the females rate 4.87% no significant differences were observed between gender. The highest rates of giardiosis observed in age group (30-45), which reached 7.04% and there is no significant difference showed in the infection of different ages under study (P≤0.05). The results showed a significant increases in the level of interleukins and the amount of IL-2, IL- 4 and IL-10 in patients (26.90, 17.43 and 14.71), respectively, was higher than those of healthy control (13.32, 10.25 and 10.55). The conclusion of this study demonstrated that the rate of infection was higher in males than in females and the age group (30-45) have the highest infection rates. The levels of interleukins (IL-2, IL-4 and IL10) were increased in the infected patient when compared to healthy persons, from this, we can deduce that pro-inflammatory and antiinflammatory interleukins have an important role in the infection of Giardia lamblia.interleukin 10; interleukin 2; interleukin 4; female; Giardia intestinalis; giardiasis; human; male; Female; Giardia lamblia; Giardiasis; Humans; Interleukin-10; Interleukin-2; Interleukin-4; Maleinterleukin 2, 85898-30-2; Interleukin-10; Interleukin-2; Interleukin-4NLM (Medline)2299063135130415EnglishAnn ParasitolArticleFinalScopus2-s2.0-85124441338

Little attention has been given to visualize and monitor changes or differences in the local generation of PtdIns (4,5) P2 and PtdIns (3,4,5) P3 in the cell membranes of MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell lines. Methods: PLCδ1-PH-GFP and Btk-PH-GFP were used as biosensors to detected PtdIns (4,5) P2 and PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 respectively. These biosensors and antibodies were transfected, immuostained and then visualized by confocal microscopy on different cell surfaces. Results: Our results showed that PLCδ1-PH-GFP/mCherry was localized at the cell membrane, while Btk-PH-GFP/mCherry was sometimes localized at the cell membrane but there was also a large amount of fluorescence present in the cytosol and nucleus. Our results also showed that the cells that expressed low levels of Btk-PH-GFP the fluorescence was predominantly localised to the cell membrane. While the cells that expressed high levels of Btk-PH-GFP the fluorescence was localization in the cytosol and cell membrane. Our results demonstrated that both anti-PtdIns(4,5)P2 and anti-PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 antibodies were localized everywhere in cell. Conclusions: Our results suggest that PLC51-PH-GFP and Btk-PH-GFP/mCherry have more specificity, reliability, suitability and accuracy than antibodies in binding with and detecting PtdIns(4,5)P2 and PtdIns (3,4,5)P3 and in studying the molecular dynamics of phospholipids in live and fixed cells. © 2021.

Therefore, the basic flow-based mathematical model with load balancing following the Traffic Engineering concept proposed for improving and supplementing with conditions that consider link compromise probabilities as network security parameters. The novelty of the improved Secure Traffic Engineering routing model is reflected in load balancing conditions related to links bandwidth and compromise probability. The application of the Secure Traffic Engineering model allows overload to reduce the most vulnerable in terms of compromise probability links. The power link blocking model is used as the specific functional dependence of weighting coefficients on the link compromise probability. © 2021 IEEE.Compromise Probability; Link blocking model; Load Balancing; Optimization; Secure Routing; Traffic EngineeringBalancing; Blocking probability; Network routing; Basic flow; Compromize probability; Condition; Link blocking model; Load-Balancing; Optimisations; Power links; Routing approach; Secure routing; Traffic Engineering; Network securityMeyers, M., Jernigan, S., (2021) Mike Meyers' CompTIA Security+ Certification Guide, , Third Edition (Exam SY0-601) 3rd Edition, McGraw-Hill Education; Anderson, R., (2020) Security Engineering: a Guide to Building Dependable Distributed Systems, , 3rd Edition, Wiley; Gauvin, W., (2019) Applied Cyber and Network Security Labs, , Kindle Edition; Salmon, A., Levesque, W., McLafferty, M., (2019) Applied Network Security: Proven Tactics to Detect and Defend Against All Kinds of Network Attack, , Kindle Edition; Yeremenko, O., Lemeshko, O., Persikov, A., Secure routing in reliable networks: Proactive and reactive approach Conference on Computer Science and Information Technologies (CSIT 2017: Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing II), 689, pp. 631-655. , Springer; Hatzivasilis, G., Papaefstathiou, I., Manifavas, C., SCOTRES: Secure routing for IoT and CPS (2017) Ieee Internet of Things Journal, 4 (6), pp. 2129-2141. , Dec; Qaisar, M.U.F., Wang, X., Hawbani, A., Khan, A., Ahmed, A., Wedaj, F.T., TORP: Load balanced reliable opportunistic routing for asynchronous wireless sensor networks (2020) 2020 Ieee 19th International Conference on Trust, Security and Privacy in Computing and Communications (TrustCom), pp. 1384-1389; Cai, R.-Y., Ju, M.-Y., Yang, L., Pan, C.-S., Research on lightweight secure routing technology based on satellite network (2020) 2020 5th International Conference on Information Science, Computer Technology and Transportation (ISCTT, pp. 42-47; Anjum, M.N., Chowdhury, C., Neogy, S., Implementing mobile agent based secure load balancing scheme for MANET (2019) 2019 International Conference on Opto-Electronics and Applied Optics (Optronix), pp. 1-6; Ohata, Y., Umeda, S., Kamimoto, T., Shigeno, H., Secure routing protocol considering load distribution in mobile ad hoc networks (2015) 2015 Ieee Trustcom/BigDataSE/ISPA, pp. 840-847; Lata, B.T., Sumukha, T.V., Suhas, H., Tejaswi, V., Shaila, K., Venugopal, K.R., Anvekar, D., Patnaik, L.M., SALR: Secure adaptive load-balancing routing in service oriented wireless sensor networks (2015) 2015 Ieee International Conference on Signal Processing, Informatics, Communication and Energy Systems (SPICES), pp. 1-5; Lemeshko, Yeremenko, O., Yevdokymenko, M., Shapovalova, A., Radivilova, T., Ageyev, D., Secure based traffic engineering model in softwarized networks (2020) 2020 Ieee 2nd International Conference on Advanced Trends in Information Theory (ATIT), pp. 143-147; Lemeshko, O., Yeremenko, O., Shapovalova, A., Yevdokymenko, M., Akulynichev, A., Porokhniak, V., Research of secure routing with load balancing and compromise probability behavior account (2021) Ieee Eurocon 2021 - 19th International Conference on Smart Technologies, pp. 296-299; Lemeshko, O., Yeremenko, O., Shapovalova, A., Hailan, A.M., Yevdokymenko, M., Persikov, M., Design and research of the model for secure traffic engineering fast reroute under traffic policing approach (2021) 2021 Ieee 16th International Conference on the Experience of Designing and Application of Cad Systems (CADSM), pp. 23-26; He, F., Cao, Y., Zhang, J.J., Wei, J., Zhang, Y., Muljadi, E., Gao, W., Security-oriented and load-balancing wireless data routing game in the integration of advanced metering infrastructure network in smart grid (2016) 2016 North American Power Symposium (NAPS), pp. 1-6; Lemeshko, O., Yeremenko, O., Linear optimization model of MPLS Traffic Engineering Fast ReRoute for link, node, and bandwidth protection (2018) 2018 14th International Conference on Advanced Trends in Radioelecrtronics, Telecommunications and Computer Engineering (TCSET), pp. 1009-1013; Zhang, H., Lou, F., Fu, Y., Tian, Z., A conditional probability computation method for vulnerability exploitation based on CVSS (2017) 2017 Ieee Second International Conference on Data Science in Cyberspace (DSC), pp. 238-241; Common Vulnerability Scoring System Version 3.1: Specification Document, , https://www.first.org/cvss/specification-document, online]Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.4th IEEE International Conference on Advanced Information and Communication Technologies, AICT 202121 September 2021 through 25 September 20211753909781665406185EnglishIEEE Int.

Accordingly, herpes zoster or shingles mainly occurred among adults with a consider-able percentage of infection in all months of the year, higher in winter and spring than that detected in summer in temperate climates. For example, 10–20% of adults older than 50 years usually suffer from at least one case of zoster attack during their lifetime. Moreover, about 30% of the population are at risk of undergoing and developing shingles during their life at some points. It is estimated that 1 million adults in the United States of America (USA) are affected with shingles annually. According to previously reported data and as a result of the small number of researches related to following up the rate of infection with herpes zoster among the population of Iraq in general and Thiqar Governorate, this study aimed to deter-mine the actual percentage of this disease, as well as to study the direct impact of risk factors for people in general and patients with viral skin diseases, in particular, and the extent of interdependence between these factors and the rate of herpes zoster infection. Therefore, this study pursued to identify the incidence of herpes zoster among patients with other skin infections. Also, to establish possible correlations between the incidence of herpes zoster infection and different factors detected, such as family history, number of family members living as a closed family, and other risk factors among male and female HZ patients compared to the control group. There were 100 people, 50 patients, and 50 control, males and females with an age range between 10 to 80 years. All data such as age, gender, lesion site, residency, occupation, previous history of coronavirus disease (COVID-19), Blood groups were collected applying a questioner. Results of the number of cases infected with herpes zoster showed an increase in the level of infection among males compared to females. In addition, the incidence was 30 males (60%) over 20 females (40%). Furthermore, there was a high increase (16-22%) in the incidence of infection in the age groups from 50-70 years, whether in females or males, the age groups most vulnerable to infection. The presence of skin lesions is represented by vesicles in different areas of the body. The highest incidence among patients with shingles was in the sacral region (32%), followed by the lumbar region (26%), then the cervical region (22%), and the thoracic region (16%). © 2021, Venezuelan Society of Pharmacology and Clinical and Therapeutic Pharmacology.

Nine samples collected from the market (5 samples onion and 4 sample Garlic), which classified according to their origin. Using 3''x3'' NaI (Tl) gamma ray spectroscopy system, the radioactivity concentrations of the natural radionuclides radium-226, thorium-232 and potassium-40 were determined. The results obtained showed that the average concentration of radioactivity of radium-226, thorium-232 and potassium-40 is 3.398 Bqkg-1, 4.667 Bqkg-1 and 216.738 Bqkg-1, respectively, for onion and 2.808 Bqkg-1, 3.524 Bqkg-1, and 172.064 Bqkg-1 for garlic. The results also showed that the average annual total effective dose of the three nuclides is 122.955 lSv:y-1 for onion and 97.231 lSv:y-1for garlic. Other relevant risk parameters were also calculated, such as equivalent activity concentrations, absorbed dose, excess lifetime cancer risks, and other health risk parameters. One of the most important conclusions reached by this study is that the natural radioactive elements in onions and garlic do not pose a great danger to their consumers, especially those infected with the COVID-19. Because the concentrations of these radioactive elements do not exceed the permissible limits recommended by recognized scientific organizations and agencies such as International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP), United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation (UNSCEAR), and World Health Organization (WHO). © 2021 Elsevier Ltd.

College, University of Thi-Qar, IraqZaid, S.A., Civil Eng., Eng. College, University of Thi-Qar, Iraq; Al-Asadi, A.K., Civil Eng., Eng. College, University of Thi-Qar, IraqThis research investigated the performance of lightweight concrete infilled inside steel tubular truss girders. Six specimens of lightweight concrete infilled steel tubular (LWCFST) truss girders were tested. The main variables were the effect of the existence of concrete within the chords and the reinforcing steel bars added into the bottom chord. The lightweight concrete in the bottom chord was reinforced with one or two bars with a nominal diameter of 10 mm, whereas the concrete in the top chord was remained unreinforced. This study demonstration the ultimate loads, flexural strength, load–displacement curves at the mid-span, longitudinal strain curves for chords at mid-span, deflections along the span, and the modes of failure of the tested specimens. The results showed that the existence of the lightweight concrete into the chords increases the strength of the LWCFST truss girder by about 41.2%, also gives them better ductility as compared to the hollow truss girder, and was increased by about 7.6 % to 24.8 % when added reinforcing to concrete in the bottom chord. The adding of reinforcement to the lower of the bottom chord gives the best increase in the ultimate load. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd.

The beams subjected to preload were repaired with two different techniques using CFRP sheet (U-warp and W-warp) and then tested to fail under a four-point loading system. The results showed that pre-loading at high levels had a detrimental effect on the shear-deficient concrete beams, on the other hand, CFRP sheets helped to restore as well as increase the ultimate load-carrying capacity of most of the beams. Experimental results prove that Repairing previously damaged beams not only helps them to recover but also greatly increases their ability to resist premature shear failure. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd.

All the prepared compounds were characterized using different methods such as infrared spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance, and CHN analysis. The analysis results concurred with the suggested chemical structures of the prepared compounds. Density functional theory has been applied with the basis set of 3-21G to investigate the molecular structure of the prepared organotellurium compounds. Geometrical structure, HOMO surfaces, LUMO surfaces, and energy gap have been produced throughout the geometry optimization. The molecular geometry and contours for organotellurium compounds have been investigated throughout the geometrical optimization. Also, the donor and acceptor have been studied by comparing the HOMO energies of the prepared organotellurium compounds. Finally, the electronegativity, electrophilicity, ionization potential, electron affinity, and lower case of organotellurium compounds have been calculated and discussed. © 2021, Gadjah Mada University.

Due to the importance of this sector economically and in terms of energy supply, one of the most important applications of nanomaterials is their large scale use to remove or minimize the hurdles that the oil and gas industry faces. The hydrothermal method was used to prepare novel Rhodium borate nanoparticles, which were made by first obtaining Rhodium oxide from Rhodium acetate, then reacting with boric acid and other cofactors. The efficiency of the process for generating Rhodium borate nanoparticles was extremely high. The efficiency of the process for generating Rhodium borate nanoparticles was extremely high. The validity of the obtained results was confirmed by the diagnostic and estimation procedures utilized in this work (XRD, FT-IR, SEM, and TEM). One of the most critical processes in petroleum processing is demulsification. To avoid issues during oil transportation and handling, oil emulsions must be broken down. Because of the water content and dissolved salts in the aqueous phase of the emulsion, the presence of water in the crude oil is undesirable and can lead to pipeline corrosion and increased transportation costs. The physical and chemical features of crude oil from the Halfaya oil field in southern Iraq, which is known to contain a certain percentage of water, have been investigated. Rhodium borate (Rh2O3. B2O3·H2O) (DF1) nanoparticles were utilized in this work to separate water from crude oil emulsions. Effective aggregates exist in the synthesized Rhodium borate nanoparticles, allowing them to operate as demulsifying agents. The separation of water from the emulsion by the produced rhodium borate (DF1) and the standard demulsifier (RP96BQ) used in the same oil field at constant temperature (60 °C) and with varying concentrations was compared in this study using crude oil samples. A high separation efficiency was obtained for the prepared nano demulsifier with a percentage of up to (84.2%) compared with the standard demulsifier (RP96BQ). © 2021 Elsevier Ltd.

The algorithm used is a dynamic-static topology of particle swarm optimization (DS-PSO) algorithm. The subject of non-linear mean square error (SE) optimization between the original and required filter responses in the passband, stopband, and transition band while tolerating permitted ripples in those bands was studied. Experimental results indicate a significant decrease in SE rates of passband and stopband with used technique, where SE values of digital IIR filter with DS-PSO were better than they were with evolutionary algorithms like DI-PSO (dynamic inertia PSO) and MDI-PSO (modified dynamic inertia PSO), at rates from about 50%-90% and 10%-90%, respectively, depending on filter's order. As a result, as compared to evolutionary algorithms, the suggested method creates greater fidelity coefficients and stable digital filters. © 2021 IEEE.Filter Structure; Optimal Order; Optimization Algorithm; Signal Processing; Stability ConstraintsBandpass filters; IIR filters; Impulse response; Mean square error; Particle swarm optimization (PSO); Structural optimization; Dynamic inertia; Filter performance; Filter structures; Optimal ordering; Optimization algorithms; Pass bands; Signal-processing; Square errors; Stability constraints; Stopband; Signal processingJackson, L.B., (1996) Digital Filters and Signal Processing with MATLAB Exercises, 6 (11); Chakraborty, S., Advantages of Blackman window over hamming window method for designing FIR filter (2013) Int.

Our findings show that dopamine has a dielectric behavior, whereas quinone and L-DOPA have semiconductor behaviors in the ground and excited states. By computing the optical properties, we disclose that the electronic transition spectrum of dopamine, quinone and L-DOPA are observed in the ultra-violet region, visible spectrum, and (ultraviolet and visible regions), respectively. Other properties, such as ionization potential, electronic affinity, hardness and softness are also calculated due to their importance in sensor applications and sensing. © 2021 Mohammed L.

IoT-enabled cameras significantly help in collecting flowers images in real-time on the farm. To Classify a large dataset of flowers images with multi-species, we need a dedicated and sufficient AI model. The purpose of those captured images is to transfer their features into numerical values like the common IRIS dataset. This research investigates a perfect solution to extract the most relative features from the collected images so that engineers can have IRIS attributes from their original images. Those features represent the IRIS flowers; Sepal width and height, and Petal width and height. The applied methodology is a Conventional Neural Network model with four different architectures; GoogLeNet, VGG-16, AlexNet, and ResNet-50. These models would extract features of the image and then select the most efficient ones. Experiments have proved that SVM has accuracy with 98.89% of classifying the selected features. In the last step, using the comparative technique, nine algorithms were used to classify the IRIS species, which reached 97% of the accuracy. © 2021 IEEE.AI; classification; cloud; CNN; features selection;

According to the (IAE), around 80% of global energy demand has been met by fossil fuels in recent years, resulting in an increase in CO2 emissions as the primary greenhouse gas. Switching to renewable energy sources and using more energy-efficient energy systems are vital for mitigating environmental challenges and reducing our reliance on fossil fuels, among other things. Hydrogen fuels are primary renewable resources because of their reduced cost and ability to produce net-zero CO2 emissions. In the present study, a system is designed to generate power and liquid hydrogen from geothermal sources. The generated power by employing either the organic Rankin cycle (ORC) or absorption power cycle (APC) is compared to seek the best cycle performance from power generation standpoint. A comprehensive thermodynamic and economic modeling is carried out for the proposed system. In addition, a parametric study is applied to see which parameters affect the performance of the system. Multi-objective optimization is carried out to find the best operating point of the hydrogen liquefaction energy system. The system demonstrates better performance when APC is applied for power generation. The cost of generated liquid hydrogen by ORC and APC is 3.8 $/kg.LH2 and 3.6 $/kg.LH2, respectively. Furthermore, 0.014 $/kWh of electricity cost is reached by ORC compared to 0.012 $/kWh of APC. Parametric analysis shows that the higher the temperature and flow rate of the brine of geothermal fluid, the higher the efficiency and the lower cost. Finally, the multi-objective optimization pinpoints that the system's efficiency and unit product cost at the optimal ORC-based design is 33.85% and 0.0121 $/kWh. In comparison, the APC demonstrates better performance by 34.5% and 0.011 $/kWh. © 2021 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLCAPC; Comparative study; Exergoeconomic; Hydrogen liquefaction; Multi-objective optimization;

Clinical studies are assessing the optimal duration with the most favourable risk to benefit ratio. The efficacy of P2Y12 receptor inhibitors comparable to aspirin in preventing recurrent ischaemic events in patients with coronary artery diseases. Objectives: To investigate the outcomes of short-duration dual antiplatelet therapy after PCI with early discontinuation of aspirin while maintaining patients on P2Y12 inhibitor through systematic review and meta-analysis of available literature. Methods: We systematically searched PubMed, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), and ClinicalTrials.gov. We included randomized controlled studies that measured clinical outcomes of efficacy (mortality and ischaemic events) and safety (bleeding) of short and standard-duration dual antiplatelet therapy. The protocol of this study was registered in the interna-tional prospective register of systematic reviews PROSPERO registry (CRD42020171468). Results: Four randomized controlled trials were included; GLOBAL LEADERS, SMART-CHOICE, STOPDAPT-2, and TWILIGHT. The total number of patients was 29,089. The safety outcomes showed a significant reduction in major bleeding events with short-duration dual anti-platelet therapy; the risk ratio was 0.61 (95% CI 0.38-0.99; z=2,00, p=0.05). There was no differ-ence between short and standard-duration dual antiplatelet therapy regarding efficacy outcomes (al-l-cause death, major adverse cardiovascular events, myocardial infarction, stroke, and stent throm-bosis). Conclusion: Short-duration dual antiplatelet therapy followed by P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy after PCI is a feasible option and can be adopted, especially in patients with a high risk of bleeding. © 2021 Bentham Science Publishers.Coronary artery disease; Drug-eluting stent; Dual antiplatelet therapy; P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy; Percutaneous coronary intervention; Short-duration DAPTacetylsalicylic acid; purinergic P2Y12 receptor; acetylsalicylic acid; antithrombocytic agent; purinergic P2Y receptor antagonist; Article; bleeding; cardiovascular disease; cerebrovascular accident; data base; data extraction; diabetes mellitus; drug withdrawal; dual antiplatelet therapy; efficacy outcome; follow up; heart infarction; human; hypertension; meta analysis; mortality; outcome assessment; percutaneous coronary intervention; safety outcome; systematic review; combination drug therapy; treatment outcome; Aspirin; Drug Therapy, Combination; Dual Anti-Platelet Therapy; Humans; Percutaneous Coronary Intervention; Platelet Aggregation Inhibitors; Purinergic P2Y Receptor Antagonists; Treatment Outcomeacetylsalicylic acid, 493-53-8, 50-78-2, 53663-74-4, 53664-49-6, 63781-77-1; Aspirin; Platelet Aggregation Inhibitors; Purinergic P2Y Receptor AntagonistsMehta, SR, Yusuf, S, Peters, RJ, Clopidogrel in Unstable angi-na to prevent Recurrent Events trial (CURE) Investigators.

We consider the process of Arabization/domestication of Shakespeare's plays since Najib al-Haddad's adaptation of Romeo and Juliet and Tanyus' Abdu's adaptation of Hamlet, to the achievements of Khalīl Mutran and Muhammad Hamdi. We underline, as particular examples of Shakespeare's appropriation, the literary response of Ali Ahmed Bakathir, Muhammad al-Maghut and Mamduh Udwan, with a particular stress on Khazal al-Majidi and his adaptations of Shakespeare's plays. All these writers reposition Shakespeare's plays in an entirely different cultural space. © by the author, licensee Łódź University - Łódź University Press, Łódź, Poland.

As this Hanafi jurist is the owner of the first system in jurisprudence, and his work (al-Qand in the mention of the scholars of Samarkand) is among the most important printed sources that have been translated for the flags of the city of Samarkand and those who came to it and everyone who contacted its sheikhs or held an administrative position in it then showed their intellectual activity in that period, and he was a favored owner Great in highlighting the great role of the scholars of the city and those who came to it, their civilizational contributions and their effects on the city and the regions of the country beyond the river during the era of the Islamic caliphate. The subject of his translation explained the prosperity of Arab civilization and its cultural activity in the Islamic world from the ancient until the sixth century AH, so it was the high scientific status enjoyed by Abu Hafs Al-Nasafi as a jurist and historian, and Adeeb, motivated us to choose this topic. © 2021.

If the concept of foreignization leads the reader to the source text through a foreign cultural contribution to the target culture, domestication brings the source text closer to the reader’s culture. We apply Venuti’s theory to literary translation from English into Arabic to demonstrate the translator’s involvement in this form of cultural transfer by providing relevant examples: Hemingway’s The Old Man and the Sea, and Alan Lightman’s Einstein’s Dreams (from English into Arabic), and Mark Twain’s The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (from English into Arabic, Romanian, and Polish). © 2021, Editura Universitaria Craiova.

Encryption is known to be a very critical step in the security of multimedia applications. This paper proposes the Playfair, and OTP based image encryption-compression method using integer Haar transform. Initially, the proposed method encrypts the image using integer Haar transform with the One Time Pad (OTP) algorithm and the Playfair encoding. Finally, Inverse Discrete Wavelet Transform (IDWT) is applied to get the ciphered encoded image. The decoding part is driven automatically by inverting the operations of the encoding part. The quality of encrypted-decrypted images is assessed using Histogram Analysis, NPCR, UACI, PSNR, SSIM, GLCM correlation coefficient and Entropy. It is evident from visual inspection of the images and quality assessment parameters that the proposed method works effectively. © 2021, Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.Compression; DWT; Image encryption; One Time Pad; PlayfairCryptography; Encoding (symbols); Image coding; Image compression; Inverse problems; Signal encoding; Signal reconstruction; Compression; Compression methods; Digital image; Haar transform; Image cryptographies; Images encryptions; Multi-modal data; One time pads; Playfair; Secure image transmission; Discrete wavelet transformsSneha, P.S., Sankar, S., Kumar, A.S., A chaotic colour image encryption scheme combining Walsh–Hadamard transform and Arnold–Tent maps (2019) J.

This paper demonstrates the feasibility of employing the neural network in the solder joint useful lifetime estimation. A dataset is prepared for training a deep neural network under different conditions using finite element simulations. The contributory parameters including thermal specifications, solder joint geometry and solder joint type are considered in 420 finite element simulations. While the proposed approach has a remarkably quick reliability assessment, the predicted results showed a maximum root mean square error of 3.2%. The results reveal that there exists an optimum solder joint volume in which the maximum useful lifetime under the certain thermal loading. Also, it is found that the hourglass type solder interconnection has better performance in comparison with barrel type solder interconnection as the reliability perspective owing to the more gentle triaxiality factor. Ability of rapid reliability analysis and effects consideration of key parameters on the solder joint reliability make this proposed method attractive in the design stage of electronic devices. © 2021 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.creep-fatigue failure mechanism; Damage evolution; neural network; solder jointDeep neural networks; Electronic equipment; Fatigue damage; Mean square error; Network components; Reliability analysis; Thermoelectric equipment; Creep fatigue; Creep-fatigue failure mechanism; Damage evolution; Failure mechanism; Fatigue failures; Joint geometry; Joint type; Neural-networks; Solder joints; Useful lifetime; Failure (mechanical)Huai, W., Transitioning to physics-of-failure as a reliability driver in power electronics (2014) IEEE J.

Many studies have shown that heavy metal exposure and trace element levels in the body are the most critical etiologies for cancer development. As a result, the goal of our research was to assess the imbalances in the serum concentrations of selected elements (Cu, Co, Se, Ni, Cd, and Pb) in post-operative GC patients against healthy participants/ controls. Methods: The metal levels were determined using a nitric acid/perchloric acid-based wet digestion technique and flame atomic absorption spectrometry, Serum levels of CEA were measured using a two-site immunoenzymometric assay, which is performed entirely in the AIA-PACK SLa test cups. Results: Pb, Cd, and Ni concentrations were found to be significantly higher in the blood of GC patients than in the blood of controls, but Cu and Co levels were significantly lower in the blood of GC patients than in the blood of controls. In the blood of post-operative GC patients, correlation analysis revealed a positive association between CEA-Cd, CEA-Pb, and CEA-Ni, while the correlation was negative for CEA-Cu. These findings were statistically significant (p < 0.05). Conclusion: According to our findings, low Co and Se levels, as well as high Pb and Cd levels, may have a role in the development of stomach cancer.

Most patients are infants and young children with a history of burns caused by liquids. Objective: The present study aims to present all patients with burn hemangiomas treated at our institutions with a full clinical and histopathological assessment. Patients and Methods: This case series includes 34 cases that were treated during the period from 2016 to 2021. Results: A total of 34 patients (16 female/18 male, mean age of 17.6 years) were included. Two age groups presented: infants and children (n = 22, age range 0.5-8 years, 10 female/12 male), and adults (n = 11, age range 25-44 years, 6 female/6 male). Lesions appeared 1-2 weeks following predominantly second-degree burns, and multiple lesions predominated in infants and children. The lesions evolved to large lesions within weeks, and these appeared to be either static or involute. The histopathology was compatible with hemangioma, rather than pyogenic granuloma. Conclusion: Burn hemangioma should be considered a new variant of hemangioma rather than a type of pyogenic granuloma that follows second-degree burns. They have many similarities with infantile hemangioma, both clinically and histopathologically. © 2021 S. Karger AG, Basel.

Alcohol consumption, particularly heavier drinking is identified as an essential factor to develop health issues, such as high blood pressure, immune disorders, and heart diseases. To support health professionals in diagnosis disorders related with alcoholism with a high rate of accuracy, there is an urgent demand to develop an automated expert systems for identification of alcoholism. In this study, an expert system is proposed to identify alcoholism from multi-channel EEG signals. EEG signals are partitioned into small epochs, with each epoch is further divided into sub-segments. A covariance matrix method with its eigenvalues is utilised to extract representative features from each sub-segment. To select most relevant features, a statistic approach named Kolmogorov–Smirnov test is adopted to select the final features set. Finally, in the classification part, a robust algorithm called AdaBoost k-means (AB-k-means) is designed to classify EEG features into two categories alcoholic and non-alcoholic EEG segments. The results in this study show that the proposed model is more efficient than the previous models, and it yielded a high classification rate of 99%. In comparison with well-known classification algorithms such as K-nearest k-means and SVM on the same databases, our proposed model showed a promising result compared with the others. Our findings showed that the proposed model has a potential to implement in automated alcoholism detection systems to be used by experts to provide an accurate and reliable decisions related to alcoholism. © 2021, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.AdaBoost k-means; Alcoholism; Covariance matrix; EEG; Kolmogorov–SmirnovAdaptive boosting; Biomedical signal processing; Blood pressure; Classification (of information); Covariance matrix; Electroencephalography; Support vector machines; Adaboost k-mean; Alcohol consumption; Alcoholism; Classification approach; Covariance matrices; EEG signals; EEG signals classification; K-means; Kolmogorov-Smirnov; Statistic modeling; Eigenvalues and eigenfunctionsPelvig, D.P., Pakkenberg, H., Stark, A.K., Pakkenberg, B., Neocortical glial cell numbers in human brains (2008) Neurobiol.

Cytokines play critical roles in cellular response to viral infection. It has also been reported that’s susceptibility of the ABO blood type people to several viral infection. In this study, we evaluated interleukin 6 (IL-6), interleukin 8(IL-8), and interferon gamma (IFN-γ) levels in aborted women infected with parvovirus B19 (B19+/Abr+) and uninfected with B19(B19-/Abr+) in comparison with healthy women (B12-/Abr-) and susceptibility of their RhD blood type to contract B19. Methods: B19+/Abr+ were diagnosed using IgM and IgG antibodies against B19, and the concentrations of IL-6, IL-8, and IFN-γ were determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) test in both B19+/Abr+, B19-/Abr+, and B19-/Abr-. Here, we also collected blood groups, number of abortion, and gestational ages from 200 B19+/Abr+ along with the same number ofB19-/Abr+ and B19-/Abr-. Results: The levels of IFN-γ were higher in serum of B19-/Abr+andB19+/Abr+ group in comparison to B19-/Abr-, while the serum levels of IL-6, IL-8were increased in B19+/Abr+ group in comparisontoB19-/Abr+ and B19-/Abr-. Our analyzed data also showed that aborted women with RhD+ are more susceptible to contract s B19 than people with RhD-blood type. Conclusions: B19 infection may differently modulate the amount of cytokines in the plasma of aborted women. So, it can be suggested that IL-6, IL-8, and IFN-γ potentially useful as markers for inflammation intrauterine. The susceptibility/protection of aborted women against B19 might be determined based on RhD blood type. © 2021. Reports of Biochemistry & Molecular Biology.

This research study and simulation examine the design and evaluation performance of Radio Frequency over FSO (RF-FSO) wireless communication technology. These systems are implemented through medium communication link ranges to overcome excessive sensitivity of atmosphere medium and meet the requirements of a wide variety of optical wireless applications. There are two ways to achieve the application of the design mentioned above. The first way is the application of the Three modulation schemes of technology that is Amplitude shift keying (ASK), Quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM), and Quadrature phase-shift keying (QPSK) of digital modulation. The design of these modulation schemes is realized by using optiwave software to study the transmission of RF signals over the FSO channel and compare the three modulation techniques into the RF-FSO system. RF signals with the frequency range from (20 to 60) GHz is used in RF-FSO system and many carrier optical signals where the higher RF has a wider bandwidth to carrying larger information. To increase the transmission of data rates Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) technology is used. The second way is based on a mathematical model which has been proposed for this study. This mathematical model calculates optimal beacon period (BI), and optimal listen interval (LI) to preventing the overlapping of time between the signals and the decrease in the required power. Using different weather conditions samples, the simulation results revealed that the best performance of the RF-FSO system is from link range, and the receiver is more sensitive. The simulation results are as follows: Two independent channels are transmitted 20 Gbps over ranges from (263 m to 6.55 km), while four channels are transmitted 40 Gbps over ranges from (257 m to 5.95 km), and eight independent channels transmit 80 Gbps over distance from (203 m to 5.2 km). © 2021.

The maximal submodule graph MG(U) of proper R-submodules of U is an undirected graph defined as follows: the vertex set is the set of all proper R-submodules of U, and there is an edge between two distinct vertices N and L if and only if N + L is a maximal submodule of U. We study these graphs to relate the combinatorial properties of MG(U) to the algebraic properties of the R-module U. We study connectedness for MG(U). We investigated some properties of MG(U) such as, diameter, girth, and clique number. © 2021 Taru Publications.05C15; 05C25; 05C69; 16D10; Clique number; Connectedness; Maximal submodule graph; Module; PlanarityAbdulqadr, F.H., Maximal ideal graph of commutative rings (2020) Iraqi Journal of Science, 61 (8), pp. 2070-2076; Akbari, S., Tavallaee, H.A., Khalashi Ghezelahmad, S., Intersection graph of submodules of a module (2012) J.

For this deal, three types of steel fiber (straight, hooked, and corrugated steel fiber) are used. Each type of steel fiber was added in four different volume fractions. Each steel fiber shape was added separately by proportions (0, 0.5, 1, 1.5) % of the total concrete volume. Subsequently, ten 800 × 800 mm × 100 reinforced concrete slabs (three slabs for each type of fibers, one for each proportion, and the remaining one slab was the control) were cast and subjected to flexural tests. The effect of type and amount of SSF on flexural behavior of two-way slabs were studied. That, where 0.5% of steel fibers was added, the straight fibers were acknowledged in comparison to the others whereas the improvement to the stiffness was better and the ultimate load increased by 22.58%. At 1% of steel fibers, the ultimate load increased by (35, 43, and 29) % for straight, hooked, and corrugated fibers respectively which at this addition ratio the hooked fibers were the notable contributor as opposed to other types, and this observation was apparent in improving splitting and flexure strength for hardened concrete. Adding 1.5% of steel fibers to the concrete degrade the workability severely by (83-92)% for all types of steel fibers in parallel with little improvement on slabs behavior is contrary to 1% ratio, thus, the 1% is the recommended addition. © The Author 2021.

The resolvent of the operator sequence of the weighted operator is discussed, and proof is given to indicate that this operator sequence is restricted to the space of all real valued Lebesgue measurable functions that are square integrable on real numbers. The sequence of this operator's convergence to the resolvent of the second derivative operator with the individual boundary conditions is then demonstrated. Consequently, this convergence is used to analyze the results of weighted operator model in the image processing. © 2021 Forum-Editrice Universitaria Udinese SRL.

Indeed, the effect of the number of nozzles of the swirl generator on the entropic characteristics has been evaluated. The nozzles were applied for improving the performance of FPSC. For evaluating the proposed system based on the entropy concept, the effect of injection angle and mass flow rate has been considered. The selected injection angles were 30°, 45°, 60°, and 90°. Also, the total mass flow rates entered from all of the nozzles were 0.2 kg/s, 1 kg/s, and 2 kg/s. The effect of said variables on frictional and thermal entropy generations was analyzed; then, the overall energetic-entropic performance of the system was predicted using several dimensionless parameters including NE, NS, Nu∗, and heat transfer improvement (HTI). Moreover, Witte-Shamsundar efficiency (ηW-S) was applied to pinpoint the efficiency of the system. The highest value of HTI and ηW-S was 1.7 and 0.9 that achieved by "single-nozzle; A90-D50-N12.5-M0.2"and "quad-nozzle; A30-D50-N12.5-M2,"respectively. © 2021 Yan Cao et al.Li, H., Xu, B., Lu, G., Du, C., Huang, N., Multi-objective optimization of PEM fuel cell by coupled significant variables recognition, surrogate models and a multi-objective genetic algorithm (2021) Energy Conversion and Management, 236, p. 114063;

Objectives: To estimate the prevalence of overweight and obesity among primary school students in AL-Nasiriya city and their correlation with the eating habits, socioeconomic and lifestyle factors. Methods: A cross-sectional study conducted on 357 (177 girls and 180 boys) sample of pupils aged 6-12 years selected randomly from students who attended public primary schools during the period from1st of December 2018 to the end of May 2019 in AL-Nasiriya city. The Body Mass Index (BMI) was measured and used as indicator for overweight/obesity. Results: The overall prevalence of obesity and overweight among primary school children in ALNasiriya city was 28% (17.9% were obese and 10.1% were overweight). A significant positive association between excessive body weight and snacks No./day (p-value=0.004, odd ratio=3.112), and fruits intake (p-value=0.014, odd ratio=2.767) was found in this study. While, there was a significant negative association of student's BMI with the physical activities (p-value=0.049, odd ratio=0.566). Conclusion: The prevalence of overweight and obesity is relatively high among primary school students in AL-Nasiriya city. Preventive approaches by the families and the schools should be considered. © 2021 Scientific Publishers of India.

In this paper, A novel pooling method are proposed based on discrete cosine transform, this method is utilized DCT technique to reduce spatial redundancy of image by transform the spatial domain into frequency domain, which can preserve the most significant image information from the other coefficients, which represents the other details information of the image, so discard these less important coefficients. Its effect will be slight and this can reduce the eliminated information as compared with other methods. After applying DCT, we crop the most significant coefficients to be used in the reconstructed data by applying inverse DCT. then the result is combined in different methods with Max pooling and average pooling methods, this new structure can reduce the effect of discarding most important information and reduce the drawbacks of average and Max. pooling method. The results are proved that our proposed methods are outperformed some standard methods and can be used in more application. © 2021. Periodicals of Engineering and Natural Sciences.

Thus, increased number of studies, theoretically and experimentally, have been carried out to study the possibility of adopting DNA molecules in designing nanoscale thermoelectric devices. In this work, a general expression of the electron transmission probability that describes the electron transfer through one strand DNA chain has been derived using the steady-state-formalism by assuming one strand of DNA molecules as line model. The energy-dependent transmission was studied, then energy-and temperature-dependent Seebeck coefficient, and thermoelectric characteristics of four one strand DNA sequences: (A-A)10, (C-C)10, (G-G)10 and (T-T)10 are theoretically studied. According to the obtained results, it is found that the transmission behavior (magnitude and position) is varying with the type of DNA sequence. Also, the energy dependent Seebeck coefficient (S-E) curves clearly show a nonlinear energy-dependence, while the relationship between Seebeck coefficient and temperature (S-T) is linear. Thermoelectric power factor as a function of temperature was found to be enhanced with the temperature increment for the four types of DNA nucleobases. The highest values of thermoelectric power factor belong to thymine (120Wm-1K-2) and cytosine (60 Wm-1K-2), that nominate them as outstanding candidate thermoelectric materials to be adopted in the fabrication of one strand DNA-base nanoscale thermoelectric devices. © 2021, Anka Publishers.

The antibacterial activity was evaluated for the groups of compounds isolated from the C. coccineum L plant. At the beginning for the alcoholic extract, polyphenols, tannins, and flavonoids were extracted from the plant with a yield of (10.211%w/w, 8.6%w/w, 6.4%w/w, 1.2%w/w) respectively. The activity of these groups was evaluated against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Results showed that the four isolated groups significantly differed at p ≤ 0.05 between C. coccineum L extract concentration and control for (Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus saprophyticus, and Streptococcus agalactiae) as these isolated groups demonstrated efficacy against bacteria in multiple concentrations. © 2021, Dr. Yashwant Research Labs Pvt.

This paper proposes a novel model for the robust depth estimation of RGB-D images through local and nonlocal manifold regularizations. The first stage called deep depth prior manifold (DDPM), is inspired partly by the deep depth prior (DDP) model, that is a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) integrated with a local manifold regularization term. The local neighboring relationships between depth pixels and color images are employed to promote smoothing in the results. The Laplacian Eigenmap technique used for local manifold modeling produces over-smooth depth map. To improve the quality of the reconstructed image, a nonlocal manifold modeling stage was suggested, where the similarity between the depth and the corresponding color image is determined by characterizing their matching aspects. These objectives are aggregated within an optimization problem. Moreover, to extract edges better considering visual nonlocal characteristics, the structured low-rank Hankel approximation was adopted to better eliminate depth degradations, and to extract highly promoted edges and sharp points. Three types of the degradations were handling in this work, containing undersampling, ToF-like, and Kinect-like degradations. Experimental results indicate that the proposed method outperformed the state-of-the-art restoration techniques on standard benchmark images, in terms of well-known criteria like PSNR. © 2013 IEEE.auto-encoder; deep depth prior (DDP); depth map; Inverse problems; manifold regularization; patch manifoldColor matching; Deep neural networks; Image enhancement; Image reconstruction; Signal encoding; Auto encoders; Colour image; Deep depth; Deep depth prior; Depthmap; Manifold modeling; Manifold regularizations; Nonlocal; Patch manifold; Time-of flight; Inverse problemsLiu, X., Zhai, D., Chen, R., Ji, X., Zhao, D., Gao, W., Depth restoration from RGB-D data via joint adaptive regularization and thresholding on manifolds (2019) IEEE Trans.

Rossin College of Engineering and Applied Science, Bethlehem, PA, United StatesLarge Eddy Simulations (LES) are carried out for a Francis turbine operating at an ultra-low load with and without injection. The flow rate of the turbine is 40% of the design value. The injection aims to improve turbine operation for the already unstable base case away from the design flow rate. Tangential water injection was introduced through the draft tube wall in the same and opposite runner rotation direction. The injection angle was varied (15, 30 , 45 and 60 ). Two water injection rates were applied at 4% and 8 % of the optimal design flowrate. While injection with the 4% rate and 30 in the opposite runner rotation direction helped reduce pressure fluctuations downstream of the injection inlets; no injection configuration could completely mitigate the power and pressure fluctuations. The injection was found to increase the amplitude of pressure fluctuations close to the injection inlets by 2 to 20 times the magnitude of fluctuations without injection. There was a slight reduction in mean power production (4-10% loss) by injection. The high amplitude fluctuations were observed in power signals with and without the injection. © 2021 American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME).

Rossin College of Engineering and Applied Science, Bethlehem, PA, United StatesDesign and optimization using computational fluid dynamics to enhance the hydro turbine's performance are becoming gradually more common because of its flexibility, minor detailed flow description, and cost-effectiveness. These features are not easily achievable in model testing. simulations conducted in OpenFOAM 7 characterize the flow structure inside an industrial-sized Kaplan turbine module operating at the peak design flowrate. The power signal, velocity, vorticity, and pressure field are presented over the blades and throughout the draft tube. Additionally, pressure fluctuations were probed along the draft tube wall. The simulation shows a tip vortex rope in the narrow gap between the blade tip and turbine casing. The strong influence of the swirl leaving the runner had a negative impact on the flow pressure fluctuation. Also, high vortical activity was presented near the draft tube wall, leading to turbine instability. It was demonstrated that the turbine generates 14.923 MW of average power. The power signal showed minor fluctuations induced by the vortical activity close to the runner region and the corresponding pressure fluctuations. The Fast Fourier Transform showed the system is dominated by low frequency, high amplitude fluctuations. © 2021 American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME).

The main parameters considered in the experimental work were the height (hf) of the HSFC layer and the volume fraction (Vf) of the steel fiber used to create the HSFC layer. The volume fractions (Vf) of steel fiber used ranged from 0.5% to 1.5% with a 0.5% increment. For each steel fiber fraction, the height of the HSFC layer was varied as 20, 40, 60 and 100% of the overall depth of the section. In addition to the control reinforced concrete beam (hf = 0.0h and Vf = 0.0%), twelve hybrid beams were cast and tested using a fourth-point bending mode. Three distinct loading states were considered in this study: cracking, yielding and ultimate loads. Additionally, the effect of the material’s hybridization on ductility, cracking stiffness, toughness and cracking behavior is discussed. The test results showed that partial replacement of plain concrete with HSFC of hf = 0.6h has approximately the same effect on the load-carrying capacity of the tested beams as compared to the full replacement (hf = 1.0h). In addition, the fiber content of 1.5% showed better results as compared to the lower contents of 0.5% and 1.0%.. © 2021 JUST.

A commercial paint was modified by using 20%wt of (titanium dioxide (TiO2) - aluminum oxide (Al2O3)) with different concentrations range (25,50,75wt% of TiO2) layers. These nano-coatings paints were airbrushed onto the surface of specimens of steam turbine blades. The test rig and experimental apparatus have been fabricated and collected to accomplish the thermal tests. The samples were subjected to heat resistance and a temperature test approximately similar to the steam turbine’s operation condition temperature. The test results are used to choose the nano-coating layer with a concentration that ensures a composition’s highest protective properties. The test sample with concentration (paint-(75% Al2O3+25% TiO2)) showed the highest thermal properties compares with the other cases. © 2021 Trans Tech Publications Ltd, Switzerland.Low-pressure turbine; Nano-coating; Nanomaterials; Nanoparticles; Nanotechnology; Steam turbine; Thermal barrier; Thermal experiment; Thermal stresses; Turbine bladeAlumina; Aluminum oxide; Heat resistance; Paint; Steam; Steam turbines; Thermodynamic properties; TiO2 nanoparticles; Titanium dioxide; Turbine components; External surfaces; Heat resistant; Heat-resistant coating; Low pressures; Low-pressure turbines; Nano-coatings; Steam turbine blade; Thermal barrier; Thermal experiment; Turbine blade; Turbomachine bladesSaito, K., Sakuma, A., Fukuda, M., Recent life assessment technology for existing steam turbines (2005) 11th Int.

The Density Functional Theory (DFT) at 6-311G (d, p) basis set is used to estimate the ability of vitamin C to inhibit the corrosion of the abovementioned parts. The experimental study was performed in a at human body media simulator (Hank’s balanced salt solution) at a temperature of 37°C. The compound was optimized for its ground state, physical properties, and corrosion parameters. Further, HOMO, LUMO, energy gap, dipole moment, and other parameters were used to predict the inhibitor’s efficiency. Gaussian 09, UCA-FUKUI, MGL tools, DSV, and LigPlus software was used. According to electron density, Electrostatic Surface (ESP), Total Electron Density (TED), FUKUI function, and dual descriptor were used to show the active sites of adsorption. Also, docking studies were applied to predict the effect of vitamin C on A. ferrooxidans bacteria, which causes eroding the implants. The Ti6Al4V alloy was tested at three concentrations of the VC inhibitor using the polarization method. A concentration of 55 mg/L is the best in terms of inhibitor efficiency (99.62%). © 2021, Russian Association of Corrosion Engineers.

Numerous kinds of brain tumors were discovered, which need accurate and early detection techniques. Currently, most diagnosis and detection methods rely on the decision of neuro-specialists and radiologists to evaluate brain images, which may be timeconsuming and cause human errors. This paper proposes a robust U-Net deep learning Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model that can classify if the subject has a tumor or not based on Brain Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with acceptable accuracy for medical-grade application. The study built and trained the 3D U-Net CNN including encoding/decoding relationship architecture to perform the brain tumor segmentation because it requires fewer training images and provides more precise segmentation. The algorithm consists of three parts; the first part, the downsampling part, the bottleneck part, and the optimum part. The resultant semantic maps are inserted into the decoder fraction to obtain the full-resolution probability maps. The developed U-Net architecture has been applied on the MRI scan brain tumor segmentation dataset in MICCAI BraTS 2017. The results using Matlab-based toolbox indicate that the proposed architecture has been successfully evaluated and experienced for MRI datasets of brain tumor segmentation including 336 images as training data and 125 images for validation. This work demonstrated comparative performance and successful feasibility of implementing U-Net CNN architecture in an automated framework of brain tumor segmentations in Fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) MR Slices. The developed U-Net CNN model succeeded in performing the brain tumor segmentation task to classify the input brain images into a tumor or not based on the MRI dataset © 2021, Authors.

This paper numerically investigates turbulent heat transfer and Al2O3-nanofluid flow over a vertical double forward-facing step. A two dimensional with three different cases of vertical DFFS is conducted using K-ɛ model based on finite volume method for volume fraction of nanofluids varied for 1%, 2%,3% and Reynolds number changed from 10000 to 40000. With increasing Reynolds number, there is an increase in local coefficients of heat transfer, with the highest coefficient of heat transfer detected at Re=40000. For volume fractions of Al2O3= 3% and Reynolds numbers of 40000, the effects of step height on surface coefficients of heat transfer are described. In addition, the findings have discovered that as the volume fraction of Al2O3 nanofluids has increased, the coefficient of heat transfer has increased as well, with the maximum coefficient of heat transfer occurring at a volume fraction of Al2O3 nanofluids of 3%. Furthermore, the first step-case 2 local coefficient of heat transfer has been higher than the first step-cases 1 and 3. Increased Re number causes a sharp drop in local static pressure at the first and at the second steps. Due to the recirculation flow, there has been a reduction in velocity profile near the first and second steps, indicating an increase in heat transfer rate. Moreover, velocity counters are shown in order to demonstrate how Reynolds number affects the size of the recirculation zone. In addition, the turbulence kinetic energy counter has been shown in order to demonstrate how to achieve thermal efficiency in the second step in all the cases. © 2021 Praise Worthy Prize S.r.l.-All rights reserved.Forward-facing step; Nanofluid; Separation flow; Thermal performanceAbu-Mulaweh, H.

The k-ɛ standard model based on finite volume method in 2-D are applied to investigate the influences of Reynolds number, step height, volume fractions hybrid Al2O3-Cu-nanofluid on thermal performance. In this paper, different step heights for three cases of vertical double forward-facing step are adopted by five different of volume fractions of hybrid (Al2O3-Cu-water) nanofluid varied for 0.1, 0.33, 0.75, 1, and 2, while the Reynolds number different between 10000 to 40000 with temperature is constant. The main findings revealed that rise in local heat transfer coefficients with raised Reynolds number and maximum heat transfer coefficient was noticed at Re = 40000. Also rises in heat transfer coefficient detected with increased volume concentrations of hybrid (Al2O3-Cu-water) nanofluid and the maximum heat transfer coefficient found at hybrid Al2O3-Cu-water nanofluid of 2% in compared with others. It is also found that rise in surface heat transfer coefficient at 1st step-Case 2 was greater than at 1st step-Case 1 and 3 while was higher at 2nd step-Case 3. Average heat transfer coefficient with Reynolds number for all cases are presented in this paper and found that the maximum average heat transfer coefficient was at Case 2 compared with Case 1 and 3. Gradually increases in skin friction coefficient remarked at 1st and 2nd steps of the channel and drop in skin friction coefficient was obtained with increased of Reynolds number. Counter of velocity was presented to show the re-circulation regions at 1st and 2nd steps as clarified the enrichment in heat transfer rate. Furthermore, the counter of turbulence kinetic energy contour was displayed to provide demonstration for achieving thermal performance at second step for all cases © 2021.

These include the ionic compounds trans-[Ni(NH3)4(H2O)2][B4O5(OH)4].H2O (1), s-[Ni(dien)2][B5O6(OH)4]2 (dien = N-(2-aminoethyl)-1,2-ethanediamine (2), trans-[Ni(dmen)2(H2O)2] [B5O6(OH)4]2.2H2O (dmen = N,N-dimethyl-1,2-diaminoethane) (3), [Ni(HEen)2][B5O6(OH)4]2 (HEen = N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1,2-diaminoethane) (4), [Ni(AEN)][B5O6(OH)4].H2O (AEN = 1-(3-azapropyl) -2,4-dimethyl-1,5,8-triazaocta-2,4-dienato(1-)) (5), trans-[Ni(dach)2(H2O)2][Ni(dach)2] [B7O9(OH)5]2.4H2O (dach = 1,2-diaminocyclohexane) (6), and the neutral species trans-[Ni(en)(H2O)2{B6O7(OH)6}].H2O (7) (en = 1,2-diaminoethane), and [Ni(dmen)(H2O){B6O7(OH)6}].5H2O (8). Compounds 1–8 were characterized by single-crystal XRD studies and by IR spectroscopy and 2, 4–7 were also characterized by thermal (TGA/DSC) methods and powder XDR studies. The solid-state structures of all compounds show extensive stabilizing H-bond interactions, important for their formation, and also display a range of gross structural features: 1 has an insular tetraborate(2-) anion, 2–5 have insular pentaborate(1-) anions, 6 has an insular heptaborate(2-) anion (‘O+’ isomer), whilst 7 and 8 have hexaborate(2-) anions directly coordinated to their Ni(II) centers, as bidentate or tridentate ligands, respectively. The Ni(II) centers are either octahedral (1–4, 7, 8) or square-planar (5), and compound 6 has both octahedral and square-planar metal geometries present within the structure as a double salt. Magnetic susceptibility measurements were undertaken on all compounds. © 2021 by the authors.

However, a major drawback of OFDM that is represented by its high Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) of the transmitted signal, which leads to degrade the system's transmission accuracy. In this paper, a Compressed Sampling (CS) based approach is considered for reducing the PAPR without lowering its transmission capacity or affecting its Bit Error Rate (BER) performance. The proposed scheme adds a sampling stage after the IFFT block in the transmitter side, that is compressively represents the transmitted signal by fewer symbols that is transmitted instead of the original signal. At the receiver side, the received compressively sampled signal is then recovered before the FFT block by following the Basis Pursuit (ℓ1-norm) algorithm. The proposed scheme shows an enhanced PAPR and BER performances while preserving the rest of the system performance aspects. © 2021 University of Split.

The system's primary fuel is a geothermal two-phase flow. The system consists of a single flash steam-based power system, ORC, double effect water–lithium bromide absorption cooling system, PEM electrolyzer, and MED with six effects. The effect of numerous design parameters such as geothermal temperature and pressure on the net power of steam turbine and ORC cycle, the cooling capacity of an absorption chiller, the amount of produced hydrogen in PEM electrolyzer, the mass flow rate of distillate water from MED and the total cost rate of the system are studied. The simulation is carried out by both EES and Matlab software. The results indicate the key role of geothermal temperature and show that both total exergy efficiency and total cost rate of the system elevate with increasing geothermal temperature. Also, the impact of changing absorption chiller parameters like evaporator and absorber temperatures on the COP and GOR of the system is investigated. Since some of these parameters have various effects on cost and efficiency as objective functions, a multi-objective optimization is applied based on a Genetic algorithm for this system and a Pareto-Frontier diagram is presented. The results show that geothermal main temperature has a significant effect on both system exergy efficiency and cost of the system. An increase in this temperature from 260 C to 300 C can increase the exergy efficiency of the system for an average of 12% at various working pressure and also increase the cost of the system by 13%. © 2021 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLCExergoeconomic analysis;

Aim of Study: To look for the presence of association between fatty liver disease (FLD) and erosive esophagitis in a sample of Iraqi patients. Materials and Methods: This was a cross-section- al study of asymptomatic patients did esophagogastrodu- odenoscopy (OGD) in two large gastroenterology centers between April 2019 and May 2020. Erosive esophagitis was classified according to Los Angeles (LA) classification and FLD was diagnosed by ultrasonography and fibroscan (Ultrasound Attenuation Parameter UAP). the anthropo- metric and laboratory data of the patients were analyzed with chi square test and phi coefficient. Results: In 110 patients, the total number of patients were classified ac- cording to OGD results into two groups, erosive esophagi- tis and non-erosive reflux disease (NERD). Again, the total number of patients classified into two groups, 40 (36.4%) patients found to have FLD were classified as fatty liver group and 70 (63.6%) patients found not to have FLD and classified as non-fatty liver disease group. The percentage of erosive esophagitis is higher in FLD group 21/40(52.5%) than in non-FLD group 19(47.5%), and the risk factors were investigated and correlated to each group by specific statistical equations. Conclusion: There is a significant as- sociation between FLD and erosive esophagitis and FLD is an independent risk factor for erosive esophagitis. © 2021, Venezuelan Society of Pharmacology and Clinical and Therapeutic Pharmacology.

Blue or violet nuclear stains have been created by combining an anthocyanin with iron or aluminum ions at low pH. Obtaining a pink or red cytoplasmic counterstain, however, has not been achieved previously, even with a red solution of anthocyanin, because the chemistry of the colorant does not allow bonding to cytoplasmic materials and collagen. We used two extracts from the petals of common mallow, Malva sylvestris, to create both a blue nuclear stain and a red counterstain. The two extracts contained two chemically distinct types of anthocyanins. The first extract contains vic-hydroxyls capable of complexing aluminum ions; its flavylium core is cationic. The second type lacks vic-hydroxyls on its core structure, but includes pendant glucosides that contain a malonic acid ester with a free carboxyl substituent. The precise identity of the first anthocyanin currently is unknown, but likely is one or more of the common anthocyanins such as cyanidin, delphinidin or petunidin, which complex readily with aluminum. The second anthocyanin is malonated malvidin, which does not complex with aluminum, but is anionic at the pH used here. The overall visual effect of applying the two anthocyanin extracts is remarkably similar to that of hemalum plus eosin. © 2021 The Biological Stain Commission.Anthocyanin; cyanidin; delphinidin; eosin; hemalum; hematoxylin; mallow; malonated anthocyanin; malonated malvin; Malva sylvestris; pelargonin; peonidin; petunidinanthocyanin; coloring agent; eosin; hematoxylin; plant extract; Anthocyanins; Coloring Agents; Eosine Yellowish-(YS); Hematoxylin; Plant Extractseosin, 17372-87-1, 51395-88-1, 548-26-5; hematoxylin, 517-28-2; Anthocyanins; Coloring Agents; Eosine Yellowish-(YS); Hematoxylin; Plant ExtractsHealth Science Center, University of TennesseeWe thank Dr. Wathiq Sattar Abdul-Hussan, University of Thi Qar, Nasiriyah, Iraq, for technical assistance and Sheila Criswell, University of Tennessee Health Science Center, Memphis, Tennessee, and Carol Bain, Indiana University-Purdue University, Indianapolis, Indiana for their help with obtaining specimens.

These systems are implemented through medium communication link ranges for the purpose to overcome absorption and scattering as well as to meet the requirements of a wide variety of optical wireless applications. There are two ways for the application of the design mentioned above. The first way is the application of the two modulation schemes of technology that is Differential Phase Shift Keying (DPSK) modulation with Direct Detection (DD) and the DPSK modulation with Coherent Detection (CD). Both modulation schemes operate on Optical Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) with different configurations of multi-input multi-output technology (MIMO). The second way is based on a mathematical model which has been proposed for this study. This mathematical model calculates optimal beacon period (BI) and optimal listen interval (LI) to preventing the overlapping of time between the signals and the decrease in the required power. By using different types of water samples, the simulation results revealed that the best performance of the UOWC system is from link range and the receiver is more sensitive. The simulation results are as follows: BER is equal to 10-5, BI is equal to 85ms, and LI is equal to 108ms. © 2021.

The tools for monitoring and optimizing queries typically used in modern DBMS were analyzed, and their shortcomings were identified. Subsequently, the relevance of new intelligent tools’ development for timely and reliable detection of resource-intensive queries to databases was distinctly justified. The study concluded a set of analysis of an extended statistical parameter which indicated to be of interest for identifying resource-intensive queries. The initial set of queries’ parameters reduced by two consecutive methods. Firstly, normalizing the set of indicators using a sigmoid function. Secondly, selecting a finite number of principal components based on the Cattell test. Whereas the clustering of a set of queries performed using self-organizing Kohonen maps. Suggestions for further studies in the classification algorithm context were indicated in lights of the study’s conclusions. © 2021.

However, only a few hrHPV16 infections develop into cancer. Demographic variants within the HPV16 genotype have been proposed to give differentiation into carcinogenicity. To investigate the implications of the risk of hrHPV16 variants among women in Dhi-Qar province/Iraq, during the period from 2017 to 2020, a case–control review was done as a control for 93 women with cervical cancer and 60 healthy individuals. The age of patients varied from 32 to 78 years, and the majority of people with cervical cancer ranged from 43–52 years (37%) to 32–42 years (30%) and 63–78 years, respectively (20%). Moreover, most of the cases appeared in 2018 (36%) and 2019 (29%), while the fewest cases appeared in 2017 (17%) and 2020 (18%). Further, this showed a significant difference. Therefore, the present survey detected the highest hrHPV16 infections in 2019 (78%) and 2020 (69%). Lowest infections (47%) were reported in the year 2017. Viral infections were common among young women and the infection rate decreased among older women. On the other hand, the distribution of HPV16 infections according to cervical cancer stages showed that the highest infections appeared in stage IV (70%) followed by III (68%), II (60%), and stage 0 (60%). hrHPV16 infections increased in Dhi-Qar province/Iraq during recent years especially in young women, and are associated with cervical cancer progression. © 2021, King Abdulaziz City for Science and Technology.Age groups; Cancer stage; Cervical cancer; Gene L2; hrHPV16; Young womenPopulation statistics; Cervical cancers; Healthy individuals; Human papillomavirus; Infection rates; Viral infections; DiseasesAltobelli, E., HPV-vaccination and cancer cervical screening in 53 WHO European Countries: an update on prevention programs according to income level (2019) Cancer Med, 8 (5), pp. 2524-2534; Bansal, D., Molecular epidemiology and genotype distribution of Human Papillomavirus (HPV) among Arab women in the State of Qatar (2014) J Transl Med, 12 (1), pp. 1-9; Bruni, L., Cervical human papillomavirus prevalence in 5 continents: meta-analysis of 1 million women with normal cytological findings (2010) J Infect Dis, 202 (12), pp. 1789-1799; Burk, R.D., Harari, A., Chen, Z., Human papillomavirus genome variants (2013) Virology, 445 (1-2), pp. 232-243; Chan, C.K., Human papillomavirus infection and cervical cancer: epidemiology, screening, and vaccination—review of current perspectives (2019) J Oncol, 2019. , (,),.,., https://doi.org/10.1155/2019/3257939; De Vuyst, H., The prevalence of human papillomavirus infection in Mombasa (2010) Kenya.

Recently, some studies have reported that people with O blood type are protected against COVID- 19, while people with A blood type are more susceptible to contract this disease. Here, we analysed data from 5668 COVID-19 patients along with the same number of control samples in a study population in Iraq. Our analysis confirms that people with O blood type are protected partially against COVID-19. Notably, we demonstrate that people with RhD- are more susceptible to contract COVID-19 than people with RhD+ blood type. The blood types are associated with some clinical symptoms such as headache and asthenia of COVID-19, but there is no association with other symptoms. There is no association between blood types and deaths among COVID-19 patients. This study suggests that in addition to ABO, RhD blood type influences the susceptibility to contract COVID-19. Overall, we conclude that susceptibility/protection against COVID-19 may not be determined based only on blood types among the global population as this might vary based on a number of other factors such as ethnicity, geographical locations, occupation and the level of exposure to infected people. © 2021 Majeed KR et al.ABO; Blood group; Blood type; COVID-19; Iraq; Red blood cells; RhD; Risk factorsNovel Coronovirus (2019-nCoV) Situation Report-1, , World Health Organisation; Phelan, A.L., Katz, R., Gostin, L.O., The Novel Coronavirus Originating in Wuhan, China: Challenges for Global Health Governance (2020) JAMA, 323 (8), pp. 709-710; Cheng, Y., Cheng, G., Chui, C.H., ABO Blood Group and Susceptibility to Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (2005) JAMA, 293 (12), pp. 1447-1451; Boren, T., Falk, P., Roth, K.A., Attachment of Helicobacter pylori to human gastric epithelium mediated by blood group antigens (1993) Science, 262 (5141), pp. 1892-1895; Wang, D.S., Chen, D.L., Ren, C., ABO blood group, hepatitis B viral infection and risk of pancreatic cancer (2012) Int J Cancer, 131 (2), pp. 461-468; Lindesmith, L., Moe, C., Marionneau, S., Human susceptibility and resistance to Norwalk virus infection (2003) Nat Med, 9 (5), pp. 548-553; Loscertales, M.P., Owens, S., O'Donnell, S., ABO blood group phenotypes and Plasmodium falciparum malaria: unlocking a pivotal mechanism (2007) Adv Parasitol, 65, pp. 1-50; Göker, H., Karakulak, E.A., Demiroglu, H., The effects of blood group types on the risk of COVID-19 infection and its clinical outcome (2020) Turk J Med Sci, 50 (4), pp. 679-683; Dzik, S., Eliason, K., Morris, E.B., COVID-19 and ABO blood groups (2020) Transfusion, 60 (8), pp. 1883-1884; Mendy, A., Keller, J.L., Apewokin, S., Is Blood Type Associated with COVID-19 Severity?

From 2017 to 2020, this survey was conducted on 93 adult females with cervical cancer and 60 stable individuals as a control group. The patients' ages ranged from 32 to 78. For the molecular analysis, DNA was isolated and subjected to polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for amplification and identification of the minor capsid protein L2 gene. PCR results showed 60 (65%) from 93 cervical cancer cases infected by HPV16 while only 5 (8%) of the healthy control group are positive for HPV16. The present survey detected the most high-risk HPV16 infections in 2019 (78%) and 2020 (69%) in compared with the lowest infections (47%) in 2017. Also, the incidence of HPV16 infection varies by age group, as the current findings indicate that the majority of infections occur in young women, while infection rates decline in older women. On the other hand, the distribution of HPV16 infections according to cervical cancer stages revealed that stage IV (70 percent) had the most infections, followed by stage III (68 percent), and stage II (32 percent) (60 percent). PCR is a professional method for the precise detection of HPV16. Moreover, HPV16 infections significantly associated with cervical carcinoma among women in Dhi-Qar Province /Iraq, and viral infection increased during recent years, especially in young women, and clearly related to cervical cancer progression. © 2021Cervical cancer; HPV16; L2 gene; PCR; WomenTjalma, W.A.A., Role of human papillomavirus in the carcinogenesis of squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma of the cervix (2005) Best Practice Res.

In this context, researchers are urged and encouraged to research in various fields, to stop the spread of this deadly virus. To this end, we propose a systematic review that addresses the techniques and methods of artificial intelligence in diagnosing COVID-19 disease. The main aim of the current systematic review was to highlight the gaps and challenges within the academic literature of the disease COVID-19, which included the characteristics of the data, machine learning algorithms applied to the diagnosis of COVID-19, and using natural language processing (NLP)to reveal clinical data for COVID-19 disease.Seven reliable databases were used, namely Web of Science, ScienceDirect, IEEE Xplore, Scopus, PubMed, springer and google scholar, to obtain studies related to the specific topic many filtering and surveying stages were conducted consistent with the inclusion and exclusion criteria, to screen the acquired 1115 papers.We identified the bottleneck in explaining data as one of the major barriers to machine learning and NLP approaches. Supervised machine learning has been explored as an active method for diagnosing COVID-19 disease. Future studies in this area will benefit from alternatives like increasing the volume of data, using intelligence swarms to obtain accurate features, and using unsupervised learning that does not require explanatory data. Thus, this research supported us to get a more practical comprehension of the gaps and provide possible solutions for filling these gaps. © 2021.

In the recent researches, the performance analysis (PA) is generally determined for the reinforced concrete (RC) structures with the moment-resisting frame (MRF) and dual systems. The dual system comprises mainly the MRF with shear wall of building under construction, as well as the flat slab having chiefly the BD system. In this paper, the evaluation of values of the performance and failure analysis of RC structures using BD system are submitted. We recorded a maximum load of 6.48, maximum stress of 75.00, macimum strain of 7.80, with minimum force of 0.83, while minimum slab length of 9.62 and lastly the maximum slab span of 27 for our bubbledeck concrete slab experiment in comparison with reinforced concrete slab to get the best results. The obtained results indicate that the lateral strengths of buildings increase by increasing the span length to story height ratio. Besides, the variations of the span length and the number of the story have more effects than the variation of the usage category buildings on the performance of structures. Furthermore, the span length has more effect than the number of stories in determining performance in an MRF. We observed that the bubbledeck concrete slabs are more lightweight and resistant in comparison with reinforced concrete. © 2021.

University of Baghdad, IraqThe current study was aimed to synthesized zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) using aqueous extract of olive leaves (OLE), which is very simple and eco-friendly method. ZnONPs were formed by dissolving of OLE in zinc oxide solution with adjusted pH to 12. Zinc acetate dehydrate reduced to ZnONPs during mixing with OLE associated with change of the color solution from white to pale yellow color within a few minutes. The synthesized OLEZnONPs were separated by centrifugation (4000rpm/5min), then characterized by Fourier Transmission Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Field emission-Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM) methods. The results of FT-IR showed that the functional group related to Zn-O at (433.98 to 416.67 cm_1), whereas X-RD at 2 theta diagnose the type of oxide formation as ZnO and determined particle size in range (20 – 30 nm). Besides, SEM image was showed the presence of hexagonal shape of ZnO nanoparticles (42.87nm).

Previous research has shown that the chloride and moisture content of concrete, corrosion state, and depth of reflecting objects (e.g., steel reinforcing bars) have some impact on the strength of GPR signals. What is not yet clear, however, is to what extent these factors can affect GPR response. This research has sought to quantitatively determine the effects of these factors on the attenuation and the resulting response of GPR signals reflected from reinforcing bars in concrete. The effects of these factors were experimentally demonstrated by analyzing data from four reinforced concrete slabs. Analysis of the processed data showed that attenuation was highly attributed to the depth of the reinforcing bars as compared to the concrete chloride and moisture content, where the amplitude of the reflected signals decreased by 4.5dB for every 25 mm increase in depth as compared to about 1.0 dB reduction in signal amplitude due to the presence of chloride and moisture. Corrosion of reinforcement bars, on the other hand, slightly increased the amplitude of the reflected signals by 1.0 dB. © 2021 Praise Worthy Prize S.r.l.-All rights reserved.Chloride & Moisture; GPR Signal Attenuation;

Therefore, such a condition resulted in developing novel anti-microbial agents. Hence, a lot of researchers specially investigated the new 2,5-disubstituted-1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives, which exhibit alternative biological activities. Then, new transitional metal (Fe(III), Ni(II) as well as Cu(II) complexes of ligand 2,5-bis[(2E)-2-(2-bromobenzylidene)hydrazinyl]-1,3,4-thiadiazole were prepared. All the prepared complexes were diagnosed by IR, elemental analyses, H1-NMR and mass spectral. The electronic behavior of their link data has been confirmed.It was concluded that ligand had coordination via nitrogen (N) and (NH) atoms, which has been noted in during the study for each complex. Ligand coordinated through the [15NH] and the nitrogen atom of Schiff base [N3]. This view is more supported by a band’s appearance returned to the metal–nitrogen stretching vibration at 540–547 cm–1 in the complexes. With regard to the findings obtained, we recommended the tetrahedral geometry for Cu(II) and Ni(II) complexes, whereas Fe(III) complexes were presented octahedral geometrics. All the synthesized complexes have been screened for anti-bacterial by using the spread method and measurement inhibition zone with E-coli and staph aureus (DMSO). © 2021, Dr. Yashwant Research Labs Pvt.

This drug has predominantly hydrophobic property causing a low solubility and low bioavailability. Surface solid dispersions (SSD) is an effective technique for improving the solubility and dissolution rate of poorly soluble drugs by using hydrophilic-water insoluble carriers. The present study aims to enhance the solubility and dissolution rate of EBS by using SSD technique. Avicel® PH101, Avicel® PH 102, croscarmellose sodium(CCS) and sodium starch glycolate (SSG) were used as water insoluble hydrophilic carriers. The SSD formulations of EBS were prepared by the solvent evaporation method in different drug: Carrier weight ratios, then evaluated for their percentage yield, drug content, water solubility, release in 0.1 N HCl, Powder X-Ray Diffraction (PXRD) in addition to Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) for the determination the drug-carrier interaction. Most of the prepared SSD formulas showed improvement of drug solubility. The best result was obtained with formula SSD16 (EBS: CCS 1:15) that showed high percentage yield (98.5%), high drug content (98.39%) and 8.2fold increase in solubility compared to solubility of pure drug with improved dissolution rate. The drug was converted to amorphous form without chemical interaction with the carrier. So, it can be concluded that the solubility and the dissolution rate of EBS were successfully enhanced by SSD technique prepared by solvent evaporation method using hydrophilic-water insoluble carriers. © 2021 University of Baghdad - College of Pharmacy.

The model performance allows calculating the current feed values, the actually taken stock over the steps of the cycle and the main time for stock removal. The model depends on the relationship between cutting forces and the operating parameters of the cycle, the elastic deformations of the technological system and the main technological factors. © 2021, The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.Actual feed; Cutting force; External grinding; Modeling; Process dynamicsPereverzev, P.P., Akintseva, A.V., Modeling of metal removal during an internal grinding in view of kinematics cutting feature (2016) Russ Eng Res, 36 (10), pp. 888-893. , https://doi.org/10.3103/S1068798X1610015; Kumar, S., Multi-parametric optimization of Universal Cylindrical grinding using Grey Relational Analysis (2018) IJEEE, 5, pp. 12-18; Alsigar, M.K., Mathematical model to predict material removal rate of reverse zones (2018) J Adv Res Tech Sci.

Basically, this model is used for five main purposes: to test the prediction accuracy (the diametrical error in dimensions, deviation of the shape as well as in the mutual arrangement of surfaces, treated surface taking into account the variables of process conditions, degree of blunting of the grinding wheel and initial radial run-out, etc.). As a result, in multi-stages, the quality parameters of the model processing differ significantly from the quality parameters with those of another surface being treated. This article describes a methodology for optimizing operational parameters at the stage of cutting during cylindrical external grinding with radial and axial in-feed process of a reversible stage. The model approach can be successfully applied to designing and optimization of different stages in grinding cycles with radial and axial in-feed at CNC. © 2021, The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.Axial feed; Cutting modes; Cycles; External grinding; OptimizationMalkin, S., Optimal infeed control for accelerated spark-out in plunge grinding (1984) ASME J Ind, 106 (1), pp. 70-74; Alsigar, M., Model of processing accuracy prediction with consideration of multi-stage process of circular grinding with axial feed (2020) International Conference on Modern Trends in Manufacturing Technologies and Equipment (ICMTME 2019), 709, p. 157. , , vol , Springer, Sevastopol, p; Moerlein, A.W., In-process force measurement for diameter control in presion cylindrical grinding (2009) Int J Adv Manuf Technol, 42 (1), pp. 93-101; Brian Rowe, W., Yan, L., Malkin, S., Applications of artificial intelligence in grinding (1994) Ann CIRP, 43 (2), pp. 521-531; Peters, J., The significance of chip thickness in grinding (1974) Ann CIRP, 23 (2), pp. 227-237; Allanson, D., Thomas, A., Simulation of feed cycles for grinding between centres (1994) Int J Mach Tools Manuf, 34 (5), pp. 603-616; Dornfeld, D., He, G.C., An investigation of grinding and wheel loading using acoustic emission (1984) ASME J Eng Ind, 106, pp. 28-33; Pereverzev, P.P., Alsigar, M., Designing optimal automatic cycles of round grinding based on the synthesis of digital twin technologies and dynamic programming method (2019) Mech Sci, 10, pp. 331-341. , https://doi.org/10.5194/ms-10-331; Razavi, H., Kurfess, T., Detection of wheel and workpiece contact (2003) J Manuf Sci Eng Trans ASME, 125 (2), pp. 394-395; Pereverzev, P., Akintseva, A., Modelling of renting of metal in reverse zones in the course of internal grinding (2017) STIN, 9, pp. 29-33; Couey, J.A., Marsh, E.R., Knapp, B.R., Vallance, R.R., Monitoring force in precision cylindrical grinding (2005) Precis Eng, 29 (3), pp. 307-314; Snoeys, R., Peters, J., Decneut, A., The significance of chip thickness in grinding (1974) Ann CIRP, 23 (2), pp. 227-237; Murphy, S., The effect of wheel eccentricity and run-out on grinding forces, waviness, wheel wear and chatter (2011) Int J Mach Tools Manuf, 51 (10-11), pp. 766-774; Singh, V., Rao, P., A new model for grinding force prediction and analysis (2010) Int J Mach Tools Manuf, 50 (3), pp. 231-240; Shin, Y., The study on chatter boundaries plunge of cylindrical grinding with process dynamics condition (2007) Int J Mach Tools Manuf, 47, pp. 1563-1572; Razavi, H., Control of a reciprocating surface grinder using unfalsification (2001) Int J Adapt Control Signal Process, 15 (5), pp. 503-518; Maillot, M., Online prediction of surface finish in grinding using network-based sensor (1997) Int J Mach Tools Manuf, 37 (9), pp. 1201-1217; Zhang, C., Experimental and numerical studies on the temperature field in precision grinding of SiCp/Al composites (2013) Int J Adv Manuf Technol, 67 (5-8), pp. 1007-1014; Chen, G., Li, P., Deformation simulation for an internal grinding cirque by finite element method (2010) Mod Mach, 43 (5-6), p. 455; Hahn, R., On the nature of the grinding process (1964) Proceeding of the International Machine Tool Design and Research Conference, pp. 129-154. , , pAlsigar, M.K.; College of Engineering, 31, Thi-Qar, Iraq; email: masar8937@gmail.comRadionov A.A.Gasiyarov V.R.Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH6th International Conference on Industrial Engineering, ICIE 202018 May 2020 through 22 May 2020257879219543569783030548162EnglishLect.

Collaborative filtering is the most commonly used method for recommendation systems. In a collaborative filtering algorithm, the similarity factor employed in discovering the users with the same actions with respect to the chosen products is one of the key components of recommendations without considering any other information related to the recommender system entity. In this paper, we present a new correlation and slope-based neighbor selection model which concentrates on measuring the importance effecting of entities on each other. The proposed model picks the similarity in the importance of the correlated entities and takes it into account. Additionally, we suggest a new rating prediction model based on the first available rating from the nearest neighbors. We tested other new models in addition to our proposed model. The experiments are performed on three real datasets to test our model accuracy and compare with many state-of-the-art similarity measures accuracy. Experimental outcome confirms that the proposed model surpasses the recommendations accuracy of the previous methods. The results authenticate the effect of using the recommendation system entities information like the degree of importance to identify suitable neighborhoods and obtain a fitted recommendation system. Therefore, we can consider that our proposal is an effective method to select the nearest neighbors successfully and support the recommendation process carefully. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.Collaborative filtering; Correlation; Nearest neighbor; Recommendation system; Regression-based similarityXiao, J., Wang, M., Jiang, B., Li, J., A personalized recommendation system with combinational algorithm for online learning (2018) J Ambient Intell Hum Comput, 9 (3), pp. 667-677; Su, X., Khoshgoftaar, T.M., A survey of collaborative filtering techniques (2009) Adv Artif Intell, 2009, pp. 1-19; Huang, Z., Zeng, D., Chen, H., A comparison of algorithms recommendation collaborative-filtering for e-commerce (2007) IEEE Intell Syst Auth; Adomavicius, G., Tuzhilin, A., Toward the next generation of recommender systems: A survey of the state-of-the-art and possible extensions (2005) IEEE Trans Knowl Data Eng, 17, pp. 734-749; Ricci, F., Shapira, B., Rokach, L., Recommender systems handbook (2015) 2Nd Edn; Pazzani, M.J., Billsus, D., (2007) Content-Based Recommendation Systems, pp. 325-341. , In: The adaptive web, pp; Burke, R., (2007) Hybrid Web Recommender Systems Robin, pp. 377-408. , In: The adaptive web, pp; Li, Q., Kim, B.M., Clustering approach for hybrid recommender system (2003) IEEE Computer Society proceedings—IEEE/WIC International Conference on Web Intelligence.

In such networks, most of the nodes possess the same few lowest degrees (mostly degrees of 1, 2, 3), and the number of nodes reduces exponentially as we increase the degree. This creates redundant structures in the network where many nodes have identical connections. In this paper, we transform such complex networks into their intrinsic and simplified structure such that the redundant nodes and connections are removed intelligently while preserving their overall structural features and complexity. A network intrinsic model is proposed to group similar topological structures (nodes and edges) into single nodes that preserves the network features. We implemented our network intrinsic model on several different types of complex networks, and our results demonstrate different degrees of network complexity reduction depending on the size and topology of the networks. The proposed model can be used to minimize the overhead of processing complex networks with no loss of topology or data and thus reduces the computing time of different complex networks algorithms related to its topology besides having potential applications in problems related to network alignment. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.Biological networks; Complex network; Network centrality; SimplificationBarabasi, L., Oltvai, Z.N., Network biology: Understanding the cell’s functional organization (2004) Nat Rev, 5 (February), pp. 101-113; Milo, R., Shen-Orr, S., Itzkovitz, S., Kashtan, N., Network Motif: Simple building blocks of complex networks (2002) Science (80), 298 (5594), p. 98; Schneider, C.M., The robustness of complex networks (2011) Thesis, No, p. 19655; Kamapantula, B.K., Abdelzaher, A.F., Mayo, M., Perkins, E.J., Das, S.K., Ghosh, P., Quantifying robustness in biological networks using NS-2 (2017) Model Optim Sci Technol, 9, pp. 273-290; Ghosh, P., Mayo, M., Chaitankar, V., Habib, T., Perkins, E., Das, S.K., Principles of genomic robustness inspire fault-tolerant WSN topologies: A network science based case study (2011) 2011 IEEE International Conference on Pervasive Computing and Communications Workshops, PERCOM Workshops, 2011, pp. 160-165. , , pp; Kamapantula, B.K., Abdelzaher, A., Ghosh, P., Mayo, M., Perkins, E., Das, S.K., Performance of wireless sensor topologies inspired by E.

A subset D−1 of V −D is an inverse triple effect dominating set if every v ∈ D−1 dominates exactly three vertices of V −D−1. The inverse triple effect domination number γte−1(G) is the minimum cardinality over all inverse triple effect dominating sets in G. Some results and properties on γte−1(G) are given and proved. Under any conditions the graph satisfies γte(G) + γte−1(G) = n is studied. Lower and upper bounds for the size of a graph that has γte−1(G) are putted in two cases when D−1 = V − D and when D−1 ≠ V − D. Which properties of a vertex to be belongs to D−1 or out of it are discussed. Then, γte−1(G) is evaluated and proved for several graphs. © 2021, Semnan University, Center of Excellence in Nonlinear Analysis and Applications.

A multi-centre retrospective cohort study in the middle and south of Iraq, comparing 400 patients admitted to the isolation hospitals for COVID-19 pneumonia with a matched control group at period from 1stJune 2020 to 1stAugust 2020. A total of 21/400 cases of ALI in COVID-19 pneumonia and only 4/400 cases in the non-COVID-19 group. Relative Risk (Risk Ratio= 5.25, 95%CI=1.818-15.157, P = 0.001). There were 291 (72.7%) males and 109 (27.2%) females. The average time from diagnosis of COVID-19 to the onset of ALI was (9.4±6.4 days). The mean ischemic time was (22.05 ±18.8 hours) in the COVID-19 group, while it was (11.75±8.7 hours) in the non-COVID-19 group. The mean D-dimer level for the patient with COVID-19 pneumonia without ALI is (1705±1256 μg/L), while it is (3730±2373 μg/L) for the patient with COVID-19 pneumonia. The embolectomy done in 14 patients (66.6%) of the COVID-19 pneumonia group, and it was successful in 10 patients (71.4%). In comparison, it was done in 3 patients (75%) of the control group and was successful in 2 (66.6%). Amputation was done in 4 patients (19%) of the COVID-19 pneumonia group, while only one patient (25%) in the control group had amputation. The association between COVID-19 pneumonia and ALI incidence; the D-dimer level is also associated with ALI in COVID-19 pneumonia cases. The anticoagulants, antiplatelet, vasodilators, and embolectomy had a management success rate. © 2021.

Experiments are conducted within a turbulent flow for Reynolds numbers values varied from 10000 to 35000, pitch ratio equal to 5 and height ratio of 0.33. The numerical study carried out using ANSYS FlU- ENT17.2. The turbulence is modeled by using k-ɛ model. The results showed that the case of intermittent ribs provide the highest over performance factor while the continuous ribs indicate less overall performance factor among the considered cases. In addition, the results show that the highest values of the friction factor are marked from the case of intermittent ribs and then the case of intermittent-contin- uous-intermittent ribs followed by continuous rib case. The continuous rib case showed the lowest friction factor. The experimental results showed a good agree- ment with the computational results. © 2021 Society of Thermal Engineers of Serbia Published by the Vinča Institute of Nuclear Sciences, Belgrade, Serbia.

In this paper, the non-destructive testing (NDT) and structural health monitoring (SHM) techniques were used to visualize and quantify three different sizes of simulated delaminations inserted in a cross-ply CFRP plate. An experiment of using RollerFORM and OmniScan equipment was conducted to verify and visualize three simulated delaminations. The guided waves-based developed imaging methods with a sufficient network of piezoelectric wafer active sensors was performed to quantify the shape and size of simulated delaminations. The group-velocity directivity plots were determined based on the mechanical properties of the interested specimen to estimate the group velocity values of incident and scattered waves. A simple method was developed to estimate the group velocity values of incident and scattered waves at each point of interested area based on the group-velocity directivity plots of propagating Lamb modes and the coordinates of transmitter and receiver transducers. The results demonstrate the capability of the developed imaging method for quantifying the size and shape of interested delaminations. The interaction of guided waves with delaminations were visualized experimentally using scanning laser Doppler vibrometer (SLDV). The effect of the delamination severity on the trapped waves generated over the delamination region was studied experimentally. It was found that delamination size can affect trapped waves. The large delamination has strong trapped waves compared with the small delamination which has weak trapped waves. The wavenumber analysis was conducted for the experimental wavefield data to study the effect of delamination severity on wavenumber components and to identify the delaminations. The result showed that new wavenumber components can affected by the delamination severity. The significant new wavenumber components due to strong trapped waves can be observed for the large delamination case. © 2021 SPIE.

Medicine College, University of Thi-Qar, Thi-Qar, Iraq; Kang, S.W., Poultry Science (POSC), University of Arkansas, Fayetteville, AR, United States; Kuenzel, W.J., Poultry Science (POSC), University of Arkansas, Fayetteville, AR, United StatesCorticotropin releasing hormone (CRH) neurons located in the nucleus of hippocampal commissure (NHpC) have been proposed to be involved in the avian neuroendocrine regulation of stress and appeared to respond prior to CRH neurons in the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) when food deprivation stress was applied. Since the response of the NHpC was rapid and short-lived, was it regulated differentially from CRH neurons in the PVN? We, therefore, applied immobilization stress to test whether the NHpC response was stressor specific. Gene expression of CRH and stress-related genes in the NHpC, PVN, anterior pituitary (APit) as well as plasma corticosterone (CORT) were determined. Furthermore, brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and glucocorticoid receptor (GR) were examined regarding their possible roles in the regulation of CRH neurons. Data showed that rapid activation of CRH mRNA in the NHpC occurred and preceded a slower gene activation in the PVN, upregulation of proopiomelanocortin (POMC) transcripts in the APit and significant increases of CORT concentrations. Results suggested BDNF’s role in negative feedback between CRH and CRHR1 in the NHpC and positive feedback between CRH and CRHR1 in the PVN. In the APit, V1bR activation appeared responsible for sustaining CORT release when stress persisted. Overall, data suggest that the NHpC functions as part of the HPA axis of birds and perhaps a comparable extra-hypothalamic structure occurs in other vertebrates.Lay Summary The nucleus of the hippocampal commissure, a structure outside of the hypothalamus, shows rapidly increased neural gene expression that appears to contribute to the early activation of the traditional hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis responsible for the production of stress hormones. © 2021 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.arginine vasotocin; corticotropin releasing hormone receptors; glucocorticoid receptors; Immobilization stress; paraventricular nucleus; V1b receptorbrain derived neurotrophic factor; corticotropin releasing factor; glucocorticoid receptor; messenger RNA; proopiomelanocortin; brain derived neurotrophic factor; corticotropin releasing factor; adenohypophysis; animal experiment; Article; bird; brain commissure; brain nerve cell; controlled study; corticosterone blood level; food deprivation; gene activation; gene expression; hippocampus; hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus; immobilization stress; negative feedback; neuroendocrine regulation; nonhuman; physiological stress; upregulation; Western blotting; animal; bird; brain fornix; genetics; hypophysis adrenal system; hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus; hypothalamus hypophysis system; mental stress; metabolism; nerve cell; physiological stress; Animals; Birds; Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor; Corticotropin-Releasing Hormone; Fornix, Brain; Hypothalamo-Hypophyseal System; Neurons; Paraventricular Hypothalamic Nucleus; Pituitary-Adrenal System; Stress, Physiological; Stress, Psychologicalbrain derived neurotrophic factor, 218441-99-7; corticotropin releasing factor, 9015-71-8, 178359-01-8, 79804-71-0, 86297-72-5, 86784-80-7; proopiomelanocortin, 66796-54-1; Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor; Corticotropin-Releasing HormoneU.S. Department of Agriculture, USDA: 2019-69012-29905; Arkansas Biosciences Institute, ABI; Higher Committee for Educational Development, HCEDThe project was supported in part by grants from the Arkansas Biosciences Institute (ABI) and USDA-NIFA Sustainable Agriculture Systems [#2019-69012-29905]; Cell and Molecular Biology (CEMB) Program, Poultry Science Dept., and a scholarship from The Higher Committee for Education Development (HCED) in Iraq to HJK to pursue a doctoral degree in the CEMB Program, University of Arkansas, Fayetteville.

Their model has been used through several studies in different countries. The relationships between the success model constructs have varying outcomes in prior studies. Therefore, there is a need to conduct a review of previous studies on the IS success model with different contexts. In this paper, we conducted a meta-analysis review among empirical studies in terms of country, year and results in each study. By aggregating the results of 52 empirical studies that tested relationships within the IS success model at the individual level of analysis. Findings showed that different findings occur in various countries with different cultural contexts at the same theory and constructs. Therefore, due to the inconsistency of the findings among the constructs’ relationships of the D&M success model, it is necessary to examine the constructs in different environments, such as unstable environments (conflicts and violence). © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.A meta-analysis; Civil conflicts; DeLone and McLean model; IS success modelComputer programming; Computer science; Cultural context; Empirical studies; Individual levels; Information system success model; IS success; IS success model; Meta analysis; Success models; Computation theoryGlood, S.H., Osman, W.R.S., Nadzir, M.M., The effect of civil conflicts and net benefits on m-government success of developing countries: A case study of Iraq (2016) Journal of Theoretical and Applied Information Technology, 88 (3), pp. 541-552; Delone, W.H., McLean, E.R., Information systems success: The quest for the dependent variable (1992) Information Systems Research, 3 (1), pp. 60-95; Pitt, L., Watson, R., Kavan, C., Service quality: A measure of information systems effectiveness (1995) MIS Quarterly, 19 (2), pp. 173-187; Seddon, P., Kiew, M., A partial test and development of Delone and Mclean’s model of is success (1996) Australasian Journal of Information Systems, 4 (1), pp. 90-109; Delone, W.H., McLean, E., The DeLone and McLean model of information systems success: A ten-year updated (2003) Journal of Management Information Systems, 19 (4), pp. 9-30; Bento, F., Costa, C.J., ERP measure success model; a new perspective (2013) Proceedings of the 2013 International Conference on Information Systems and Design of Communication-Isdoc ’13, p. 16. , (p; Iivari, J., An empirical test of the DeLone-McLean model of information system success (2005) ACM SIGMIS Database, 36 (2), pp. 8-27; Petter, S., Delone, W., McLean, E., Measuring information systems success: Models, dimensions, measures, and interrelationships (2008) European Journal of Information Systems, 17 (3), pp. 236-263; Halawi, L., McCarthy, R., Measuring faculty perceptions of blackboard using the technology acceptance model (2007) Issues in Information Systems, 8 (2), p. 160; Ang, J., Soh, P.H., User information satisfaction, job satisfaction and computer background:An exploratory study (1997) Information & Management, 32 (5), pp. 255-266; Rai, A., Lang, S., Welker, R., Assessing the validity of IS success models: An empirical test and theoretical analysis (2002) Information Systems Research, 13 (1), pp. 50-69; Yuthas, K., Young, S.T., Material matters: Assessing the effectiveness of materials management IS (1998) Information & Management, 33 (3), pp. 115-124; Alshibly, H.H., Evaluating E-HRM success: A validation of the information systems success model (2014) International Journal of Human Resource Studies, 4 (3), pp. 107-124; Yakubu, N., Dasuki, S., (2018) Measuring E-Learning Success in Developing Countries: Applying the Updated Delone and Mclean Model, , Journal of Information Technology Education: Research; Shim, M., Jo, H.S., What quality factors matter in enhancing the perceived benefits of online health information sites?

The samples of the study were collected during the autumn and winter in 2018-2019 from three stations within Al-Rafa district. An Atomic absorption spectrophotometer was used to measure the trace metals. The results showed that the concentrations in dissolved phase were (0.20, 0.60, 0.12 and 158.11) µg/l, while their concentrations in particulate phase were (14.34, 46.73, 17.76 and 2200.74) µg/g dry weight respective. For sediment, the mean concentrations of these metals in the exchangeable and residual phase were as follows (5.08, 0.035) (17.29, 2.71) (11.87, 13.23) and (622.18, 2366.02) µg/g dry weight. Higher concentrations of the present study were observed in Ceratophyllum demersum more than their concentration in Phragmites australis. The current study concluded that the concentrations of studied metals in particulate phase were greater than their concentrations in sediment and also higher than their concentrations in the two plants. © 2021, Islamic Azad University.

The study was carried out to found any significant monocyte level changes in COVID-19 and its relation to diagnostic usefulness and expectation of adverse outcomes. A sample of 100 patients was recruited into the analysis; all with diagnosis compatible with pneumonia underwent care inwards of Al-Hussein Hospital for isola-tion; 50 participators with COVID-19 as cases and 50 participators with influenza A elected control. The diagnosis was suggested by clinical and radiological attributes and verified by polymerase chain reaction. Monocytes total and laboratory analysis of inflammatory indices and organ vitality were achieved for all participants. The mean age was 64.4, includ-ing 56 males and 44 females. 66% of cases were monocy-topenic, 34% were non-monocytopenic. 12% of control were monocytopenic while 88% were non-monocytopenic with significant difference (P value=0.001). Forty-five participants were critical while 55 were non-critical, 37 COVID-19, and eight controls were critical and admitted to the ICU. Forty-one participants died, 35 from the COVID-19 category and six from controls. 30 of COVID-19 who were critical in ICU were monocytopenic (all died), three were non-monocytic (only one died) and 4 had monocytosis (all died), 6 of control who were critical in ICU were monocytopenic (all died), 2 had normal count (all survived) and no one had monocyto-penia (Odd ratio=1.200). Deviation in monocyte count from the norm is a valuable discriminator for the diagnosis of CO-VID-19 and a suitable anticipator across all spectrums for its adverse consequences. © 2021, Venezuelan Society of Pharmacology and Clinical and Therapeutic Pharmacology.

The small intersection graph G(M) of a semimodule M is an undirected simple graph with all non-small proper subsemimodules of M as vertices and two distinct vertices N and L are adjacent if and only if N ∩ L is not small in M. In this paper, we investigate the fundamental properties of these graphs to relate the combinatorial properties of G(M) to the algebraic properties of the R-semimodule M. We determine the diameter and the girth of G(M). Moreover, we study cut vertex, clique number, domination number and independence number of the graph G(M). It is shown that the independence number of small graph is equal to the number of its maximal subsemimodules. © 2021, Semnan University, Center of Excellence in Nonlinear Analysis and Applications.

The maximal ideal graph of S, denoted by MG(S), is a graph with all nontrivial ideals of S as vertices and two distinct vertices I and J are adjacent if and only if I + J is a maximal ideal of S. In this article, some interrelation between the graph theoretic properties of this graph and some algebraic properties of semirings are studied. We investigated the basic properties of the maximal ideal graph such as diameter, girth, clique number, cut vertex, planar property. © 2021, Semnan University, Center of Excellence in Nonlinear Analysis and Applications.

The modified engine was designed to produce the new technology for variable compression ratio engine using variable piston's height. Where the piston consists of two parts, (upper part and lower part), the height of piston varies by press hydraulic between these parts via pipe within cylinder head. The MATLAB program was used to determine the thermal characteristic for the studied engines (Otto Cycle Engine, Pre-Variable Compression Ratio Engine, Instantaneous Variable Compression Ratio Engine, Miller Cycle Engine with late valve close, Pre-Variable Compression Ratio Miller Cycle Engine with late valve close and Instantaneous Variable Compression Ratio Miller Cycle Engine with late valve close) with/without turbocharger. The results showed the Instantaneous Variable Compression Ratio Engine is the highest power when used without turbocharger.

This paper will be studying the pressure and velocity distributions on the surface of the body of a passenger car (Chrysler300s) under the effect of wind at various angles (0º,35º, 90º, and 125º) when tracking another passenger car, as well as when tracking an SUV (Mercedes G-Class) car with three distances (5m,10m, and 15m) when the vehicle speed was 120 km / h and the air speed 80 km / h. Using CFX Ansys R (19.0) simulation program. The results showed that the largest value of the reaction force of the front tires is on the front right tire (Tire FR) of the passenger car at an angle of 35 o and a distance of 15 meters between the two tandem cars. The drag force of the two tandem cars decreases as the distance between them decreases and the drag force on the rear car is less than the front car because this may refer to that design of the Chrysler class does not generate significant wakes. © 2021 Zibeline International Publishing Sdn.

An 800-watt Extraction Water Machine (EWM) is fabricated and operates on the well-known “vapor compression cycle” to extract water from the air in an area that has low relative humidity. Three options have been studied experimentally: dehumidification directly from atmospheric air with dry mode (option I); humidification-dehumidification with dry mode (option II); humidification-dehumidification with cooling mode (option III) during different days of May in Nasiriya city, Iraq. As temperature and relative humidity are the two main factors that control condensation and the amount of condensate, in addition to cooling capacity, therefore the aim of the study to determine the optimum temperature and relative humidity values at which the maximum amount of condensed water is obtained and the operation mode. mathematical models for hourly condensation rate was formulated by doing quadratic regression for experimental results and use it in non dominated sorting genetic algorithm NSGA-II and modeFRONTIER software to access solutions near the interface of the Pareto for the optimal operation of EWM to maximize water harvesting for each option. The results showed the ideal climatic conditions for optimal water production for each option. Whereas the optimal water production was 0.7622 L/h during climatic conditions 23 °C, 47 % RH in option I and 1.463 L/h at 33.6 °C and 65% RH in option II while was 1.672 L/h at 23.58 °C, 62 % RH per hour in option III It's clear to notice that the third operating strategy gave the best results. © 2021 Zibeline International Publishing Sdn.

The full vehicle model with nonlinear behaviour for springs and dampers is used as a case study when subjected to random excitations. The dynamic performance of the hydraulic-harvester suspension was compared with the passive, full-active hydraulic and full-active electric suspensions system using MATLAB/Simulink software. The PID control strategy is used to control the spool valves of the hydraulic-harvester suspensions for maintaining the dynamic performance of hydraulic-active suspensions systems to harvest the kinetic energy of road ripples. The results showed that dynamic responses of the hydraulic-harvester suspension system achieve good performance and harvest the energy of vibrations comparative to full-active suspension systems. © 2021 Zibeline International Publishing Sdn.

Thermal oven induced chemical etching has been employed in reducing the etching duration. Two solid-state nuclear track detectors (SSNTDs) CR-39 and LR-115 are utilized in this comparison. Detectors are exposed to 226Ra alpha source (5 µ ci). Several pieces of CR-39 and LR-115 detectors were exposed to 226Ra source at three different times of exposure (5, 10 and 15sec). Chemically Etching carry out with NaOH alkaline solution (6.25 N) at 70 °C for CR-39 and (2.5 N) at 60 °C for LR-115. For (5, 10 and 15sec) exposure time, the estimated maximum track densities of CR-39 detector at 90 min for thermal oven compared with 120 min for water bath. LR-115 detector maximum track densities were founded at 40 min compared with 50 min for the water bath technique. Finally, the etching parameters (the diameter of the tracks (D), etching efficiency (?), bulk etching rate (VB), track etching rate (VT), and the sensitivity (V)) were calculated and compared. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd.

We define a dominating D of V (G) as a total pitchfork dominating set, if 1 ≤ |N(t) ∩ V − D| ≤ 2 for every t ∈ D such that G[D] has no isolated vertex. In this paper, the effects of adding or removing an edge and removing a vertex from a graph are studied on the order of minimum total pitchfork dominating set γpft (G) and the order of minimum inverse total pitchfork dominating set γ−t pf(G). Whereγtpf(G) is proved here to be increasing by adding an edge and decreasing by removing an edge, which are impossible cases in the ordinary total domination number. © 2021, Semnan University, Center of Excellence in Nonlinear Analysis and Applications.

Thus, miniaturization concept has been used in the design and synthesis of the fabricated materials and devices based on nano-dimension. However, reducing the used materials would affects the overall performance of the devices and new building blocks materials are needed to pass the performance capacity limits of current silicon-based materials. Quantum Dots DQs have been introduced and attracted much attention among researchers because of their unique characteristics that are necessary for many potential applications by using nano-dimensions structures. These properties include size-tunable optical and other electronic characteristics that are not found in the current bulk materials. Although there has been interested QDs experimental studied that have been already carried out, different theoretical efforts must be introduced in order to provide good understanding of the possible and different QDs applications. In this work, therefore, optoelectronic properties of Double Quantum Dots DQDs system were studied theoretically to provide important information about the possibility of using this system in photoelectric applications. A tight-binding framework was adopted to describe the system, and all the calculations were carried out based on the steady state formalism. The proposed DQD structure was connected to metallic leads and studied to investigate the QD size dependent. The transmission calculation presented first through the electron transport mechanism. Tunneling current and conductance were then presented to provide general understanding about the behavior of the proposed system. A correlation of transmission, current and conductance results with QD radius R, incident photon energy Eph, Temperature and bias voltage have been identified. Therefore, this correlation is strongly supporting the proposal of using DQD system in fabricating nano-scale photovoltaic devices, particularly, solar cells. © 2021, Anka Publishers.

Otherwise, the data received from extraneous programs can lead to errors in the operation of the device or even a complete loss of its functionality or data. In order to identify the challenges of the transfer of blocks, this study focuses on a comprehensive study of the problems arising from the transmission of information in the form of separate data blocks and of the influence of the number of unauthorized blocks on the probability of collisions. In this study, we describe a method for distinguishing legal software data from data sent by unauthorized software sources. The analysis of the methods of reducing the probability of errors occurring at the receiver is done through the use of a buffer to store and a set of mathematical equations. The same way the analysis of the methods of possibility of reducing the reception of the unauthorized blocks when receiving individual blocks of information is done as well. Finally, we measure the extent of the effect of intensity of receiving unauthorized blocks and hash field length. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.Buffer; Hash field length; Probability of collisions; Unauthorized blocksAutomation; Probability; Collision probability; Data blocks; Field lengths; Hardware and software; Hardware components; Mathematical equations; Probability of errors; Software data; Software reliabilityBabich, N.P., Zhukov, I.A., (2007) Osnovy Cifrovoj Skhemotekhniki (The Basics of Digital Circuit, p. 480. , ), p. , DMK Press; Sumathi, R., A Secure data transfer mechanism using single-handed re-encryption technique (2012) International Conference on Emerging Trends in Science, Engineering and Technology, pp. 1-9. , , pp; Hao, P., Shi, Q., Matrix factorizations for reversible integer mapping (2001) IEEE Trans.

Consequently, there are a significant progress in the numerous fabrication of this material. Furthermore, many other supreme characteristics, whole make it quite attractive for many applications. In the present research, it is illustrated the electronic properties of grapheme nanoribbons with and without of impurity. These properties depend critically on a number and type of impurity are founded in the ribbon (the width and the nature of the ribbon edge are constants). All the computations have been achieved by the density functional theory within the 6-31G basis set B3LYP level throughout Gaussian 09 software. Finally, we calculate electronic properties for paradigms such as geometrical structure, HOMO, LUMO, energy gap, ionization potential, electron affinity, as well as electronegativity, hardness, softness, dipole moment and finally the polarizability. Herein, the both 8Al–GNR and 8P–GNR are the highest reactivity structures among all specimens because they have the highest values of average polarizabilitiy (1046.008 and 1035.1623 a.u.) respectively. Consequently, the high values of polarizibility show that the paradigm has very useful linear and nonlinear optical implementation. Interestingly, the band gap was computed of pure GNRs and found equal to 0.51 eV. Whereas, the value of doping in GNR can be noted that the band gaps is sometimes shrinks and other times expands. This values are limited between 0.285 to 1.158 eV) for paradigms 2Al–GNR and 4P–GNR respectively. Finally, the band gaps cover a wide range of values and thus allows it to be used widespread in electronic applications. © 2021, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.Al; and P; DFT; electronic properties; energy gap; graphene nanoribonMinistry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, MHESRThe authors are grateful to the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, also the authors would like to express great thanks to Science Library of Iraq Virtual.Aliofkhazraei, M., William, N.A., Milne, I., (2016) Graphene Science Handbook: Electrical and Optical Properties, , Taylor and Francis, London; Galashev, A.E., Rakhmanova, O.R., Elshina, L.A., (2018) Russ.

Triangular twisted tube with (1m) length and (0.03m) diameter was tested for different twist ratios (5, 10 and 20) and Reynolds numbers (Re=5000 to 25000) consequently. The governing equations used in the analysis of the flow field and heat transfer are the momentum, continuity and energy equations. The numerical solution for turbulent flow field and heat transfer is governed by the techniques of a finite volume method with ANSYS Fluent 17.1. The computational data indicated that the twisted tube showed increasing in heat transfer as compared with a plain tube. The twisted ratio was the main affecting parameter for heat transfer improvement and friction losses. The numerical results are compared with published results and an acceptable agreement is achieved. ©2006-2021 Asian Research Publishing Network (ARPN).

Damages in composite materials may exist as visible or non-visible with different configurations and identities. Thus, investigation of damages existence in composite materials has to have prior attention to avoid the failure of structures. The current work investigates the damping response offered by a damaged fiber-reinforced polymer plate. The plate is put under three different conditions regarding the damage existence. The focus is to measure the loss factor in all cases and determine whether there is a difference among them to prove damage presence in the composite part. The loss factor is experimentally measured by measuring the reverberation time RT60. The resulting data of loss factors show a well-distinguished difference that might lead to predicted damages and to do a more expanded analysis of this issue. © 2021 Growing Science Ltd.Composite damages; Composite damping; Composites; Fiber-reinforced polymer; Loss factor reverberation timeAlsarayefi, S.

Solving three-dimensional Poisson-Boltzmann equations and Navier-stoke equations with an electric field applied on electrolyte solution using the finite volume scheme. The results showed that ionic concentration plays a significant role in electric double layer thickness and, hence affects on the performance of MCHE, increasing the EDL thickness and increasing the effect of EDL on thermal and hydraulic performance. The ionic concentration is the main parameter that depended on the electric double layer thickness, where the relation between ionic concentration and EDL thickness is reverse as increased the concentration decreasing the EDL thickness. Enhancement ineffectiveness and heat transfer rate with different simple between heat transfer for hot channel and hot channel due to affect the temperature on EDL thickness. © 2021 Zibeline International Publishing Sdn.

One of the FLPs is the hospital facility layout problem that aims to place comprehensive clinics, laboratories, and radiology units within predefined boundaries in a way that minimizes the cost of movement of patients and healthcare personnel. We are going to develop a hybrid method based on discrete differential evolution (DDE) algorithm for solving the QAP. In the existing DDE algorithms, certain issues such as premature convergence, stagnation, and exploitation mechanism have not been properly addressed. In this study, we first aim to discover the issues that make the current problem worse and to identify the best solution to the problem, and then we propose to develop a hybrid algorithm (HDDETS) by combining the DDE and tabu search (TS) algorithms to enhance the exploitation mechanism in the DDE algorithm. Then, the performance of the proposed HDDETS algorithm is evaluated by implementing on the benchmark instances from the QAPLIB website and by comparing with DDE and TS algorithms on the benchmark instances. It is found that the HDDETS algorithm has better performance than both the DDE and TS algorithms where the HDDETS has obtained 42 optimal and best-known solutions from 56 instances, while the DDE and TS algorithms have obtained 15 and 18 optimal and best-known solutions out of 56 instances, respectively. Finally, we propose to apply the proposed algorithm to find the optimal distributions of the advisory clinics inside the Azadi Hospital in Iraq that minimizes the total travel distance for patients when they move among these clinics. Our application shows that the proposed algorithm could find the best distribution of the hospital's rooms, which are modeled as a QAP, with reduced total distance traveled by the patients. © 2021 Asaad Shakir Hameed et al.Combinatorial optimization;

The working fluid used in this paper is a hybrid suspension consisting of nanoparticles and MEPCM particles, in which the particles are suspended in pure water as a base fluid. Two types of hybrid suspension are used (Al2O3 +MEPCM and Cu + MEPCM), and the hydrodynamic and thermal characteristics of these suspensions flowing in a CFMCHE are numerically investigated. The results indicated that using hybrid suspension with high flow velocities improves the performance of the microchannel heat exchanger while resulting in a noticeable increase in pressure drop. Thereupon, it causes a decrease in the performance index. Moreover, it was found that the increment of the nanoparticles' concentration can rise the low thermal conductivity of the MEPCM slurry, but it also leads to a noticeable increase in pressure drop. Furthermore, it was found that as the thermal conductivity of Cu is higher than that for Al2O3, the enhancement in heat transfer is higher in case of adding Cu particles compared with Al2O3 particles. Therefore, the effectiveness of these materials depends strongly on the application at which CFMCHE is employed. © 2021 Mushtaq I.

It is estimated that nearly 90% of the existing timber sleepers will need replacement by 2030. Recently, increasing costs, declining quality, hardwood timber scarcity and environmental sensitivity has challenged the continuing use of timber sleepers in rail track. Consequently, the Australian rail industry is now looking an alternative materials to replace existing timber sleepers and it is projected that in next five years they will move from a traditional timber-based system (15 years lifespan) to that of an engineered composites system (at least 50 years lifespan). This paper critically reviewed the recent development of composite sleepers, identified the potential issues and provided guidelines to overcome the challenges. © Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.Alternative sleepers;

In this study, a geological model is built for Nahr Umr Formation based on data of 11 wells (SU-2, SU-3, SU-4, SU-5, SU-6, SU-7, SU-9, SU-10, SU-11, SU-13, and SU-14), including the location of wells, well tops, also contour map of the Nahr Umr Formation in Subba oil field is utilized. The structural model is constructed for the Nahr Umr Formation, which consists of two domes. The formation is composed of sandstone mainly interbedded with shale. The formation is divided into four units (B1, B2, C1, and C2) depending on well log data, each unit is divided into layers for getting better distribution of petrophysical properties, where unit B2 is divided to the number of layers is higher than other units due to its heterogeneity. Variogram is used as a geostatistical method to predict the petrophysical properties at unsampled locations, experimental variogram is calculated from well log data in a horizontal and vertical direction. The spherical variogram model shows a good fitting with the experimental variogram. Sequential Gaussian algorithm is used in distribution of petrophysical properties in a geological model which shows good petrophysical properties in unit B2 and unit B1, while units C1 and C2 are highly saturated with water. © 2021, Union of Iraqi Geoogists.

The fractional derivative is described in the Caputo sense. The method in general is easy to implement and yields good results. Illustrative examples are included to demonstrate the validity and applicability of the new technique. The approximate solutions obtained are com- pared with the results obtained by variational iteration method (VIM) and homotopy perturbation method (HPM). ©Işık University, Department of Mathematics, 2021; all rights reserved.Burger’s equation; Ca-putoi fractional derivative; Homotopy perturbation method; Sumudu transformHe, J.H., Homotopy perturbation technique (1999) Comput.

This family is called Weibull Lindley general family of distributions (WLGFD). Several properties of WLGFD are derived including the PDF, CDF, hazard rate function, reversed hazard function, odd function, and quartile function. On this approach, we derive two distributions: The Weibull Lindley Uniform distribution (WLUD) and Weibull Lindley Exponential distribution (WLED). The PDF, CDF, moment generating function, hazard rate, reversed hazard function, odd function, quartile function and moments are proved of the WLUD and WLED. An estimation procedure by the method of maximum likelihood and a simulation are studied of WLUD and WLED respectively. finally, we give graph of PDF, CDF, mean squared error and bias at different values of parameters of WLUD and WLED. © CSP - Cambridge, UK; I&S - Florida, USA, 2021Estimation and Simulation; Family of probability distributions; General Weibull Lindley distribution; Weibull Lindley Exponential distribution; Weibull Lindley Uniform distributionMahdavi, A., Kundu, D., A new method for generating distributions with an application to exponential distribution (2017) Communications in Statistics—Theory andMethods, 46 (13), pp. 6543-6557. , [1]; Afify, A.

Previous studies showed that, when used in combination, MK and polymers can complement each other, and enhance further the mechanical and durability properties of concrete, which were not improved by one another separately. To have a deep observation and understanding of the mechanism of concretes modified with various combinations of MK and polymers, this study investigates the changes in the microstructures based on SEM combined with CT scan analysis scan technologies. The findings show that the microstructure of the pore of hardened concrete modified with combined MK and hybrid polymers is significantly improved compared to samples with MK or polymers alone. This indicates that this approach can be effectively used to provide additional proof on the strength and porosity properties of high-performance concrete. © 2021.

For computing the maximum likelihood estimators with partly interval censored data, three methods are used, namely, Newton-Raphson, Expectation-Maximization and Monte-Carlo Expectation-Maximization algorithms. The standard errors of the estimates are computed using the observed information matrix. Also, two types of confidence intervals are constructed using the Wald method and the nonparametric percentile bootstrap confidence intervals. For computing the Bayes estimators, three methods viz Lindley's approximation, Tierney-Kadane approximation and importance sampling methods are used. Highest posterior density (HPD) credible intervals of the two parameters are constructed using importance sampling technique. Monte-Carlo simulation experiments are conducted to investigate the performance of the proposed methods. Finally, the methods are illustrated by using two real data sets, one is related with diabetic patients data set and the other is related to HIV infection data set. © 2021 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.Bayesin estimation; EM algorithm; partly interval censored data; Rayleigh distribution; Tierney-Kadane approximationThe authors are grateful to the Associate Editor and the anonymous referee for making many helpful comments and suggestions on an earlier version of this manuscript which resulted in this improved version.Rayleigh, J., On the resultant of a large number of vibrations of the some pitch and of arbitrary phase (1880) Philos Mag, 10, pp. 73-78; Johnson, N., Kotz, S., Balakrishnan, N., (1994) Continuous univariate distribution, , New York: Wiley; Dey, S., Comparison of bayes estimators of the parameter and reliability function for rayleigh distribution under different loss functions (2009) Malays J Math Sci, 3, pp. 247-264; Dey, S., Das, M., A note on prediction interval for a rayleigh distribution: Bayesian approach (2007) Am J Math Manage Sci, 27 (1-2), pp. 43-48; Dey, S., Dey, T., Rayleigh distribution revisited via extension of jeffreys prior information and new loss function (2011) REVSTAT–Stat J, 9 (3), pp. 213-226; Dey, S., Dey, T., Bayesian estimation of the parameter and reliability of a rayleigh distribution using records (2012) Model Assist Stat Appl, 7 (2), pp. 81-90; Dey, S., Dey, T., Statistical inference for the rayleigh distribution under progressively type-ii censoring with binomial removal (2014) Appl Math Model, 38 (3), pp. 974-982; Dey, S., Salehi, M., Ahmadi, J., Rayleigh distribution revisited via ranked set sampling (2017) Metron, 75 (1); Kotb, M.S., Raqab, M.Z., Bayesian inference and prediction of the rayleigh distribution based on ordered ranked set sampling (2018) Commun Stat-Simul Comput, 47 (3), pp. 905-923; Prakash, G., Bayesian analysis under progressively censored rayleigh data (2015) J Mod Appl Stat Methods, 14 (2), pp. 110-122; Dey, S., Dey, T., Kundu, D., Two-parameter rayleigh distribution: different methods of estimation (2014) Am J Math Manage Sci, 33 (1), pp. 55-74; Dey, T., Dey, S., Kundu, D., On progressively type-ii censored two-parameter rayleigh distribution (2016) Commun Stat-Simul Comput, 45 (2), pp. 438-455; Seo, J.I., Jeon, J.W., Kang, S.B., Exact interval inference for the two-parameter rayleigh distribution based on the upper record values (2016) J Probab Stat, 2016, pp. 1-5; Mkolesia, A., Shatalov, M., Kikawa, C., Exact solutions for a two-parameter rayleigh distribution (2017) Glob J Pure Appl Math, 13 (11), pp. 8039-8051; Fundi, M.D., Njenga, E.G., Keitany, K.G., Estimation of parameters of the two-parameter rayleigh distribution based on progressive type-ii censoring using maximum likelihood method via the nr and the em algorithms (2017) Am J Theor Appl Stat, 6 (1), pp. 1-9; Seo, J.I., Seo, B.G., Kang, S.B., Estimation on a two-parameter rayleigh distribution under the progressive type-ii censoring scheme: comparative study (2019) Commun Stat Appl Methods, 26 (2), pp. 91-102; Krishnamoorthy, K., Waguespack, D., Hoang-Nguyen-Thuy, N., Confidence interval, prediction interval and tolerance limits for a two-parameter rayleigh distribution (2020) J Appl Stat, 47 (1), pp. 160-175; Gómez, G., Calle, M.L., Oller, R., Frequentist and bayesian approaches for interval-censored data (2004) Stat Pap, 45 (2), pp. 139-173; Kalbfleisch, J.D., Prentice, R.L., (2002) The statistical analysis of failure time data, , 2nd ed., New York, John Wiley & Sons; Odell, P.M., Anderson, K.M., D'Agostino, R.B., Maximum likelihood estimation for interval-censored data using a weibull-based accelerated failure time model Biometrics, pp. 951-959; Ramlau-Hansen, H., Chr.

Epidemiological data, includes sex, age and habitation of patients. A total of 7,358 cases who visited the Imam-Hussein Teaching Hospital in Thi-Qar Province were studied. The highest number of patients were in 2015, reached 3,673 while the lowest number of patients were in 2013 reached 51. The highest cases of infection of CL was recorded in December which (2159 cases) followed in January and February (1494 and 1298 cases) February, respectively, the lowest cases in June and July (54 and 37 cases), respectively in all years of study. The study showed that the mean prevalence of CL was recorded 4444 (60.40%) in rural more than in urban recorded 2914 (39.60%) with significant differences between them. Males were more susceptible to infection 3946 (53.63%) than females 3412 (46.37%) in most study years. The result of the present study clarifies that the infection all ages. The majority of cases were recorded among in age groups ≥yr and 10-19 yr 3527 (47.93%), 2311 (31.41%) respectively, followed by the age group 20-29 years presented 705 (9.851%), while the lowest infection 203 (2.759%), 201 (2.732.4%) found in 40-49 yr and ≤49yr age groups, respectively. © 2021 Iranian Society of Ichthyology.Epidemiology; Iraq; Leishmania; Phlebotomus; Sand flyA'dhami, R.A.M., (2017) Isolation and identification pathogenic bacteria with special regard to Staphylococcus auerus associate with cutaneous leishmaniasis in Thi-Qar Province, p. 112. , MSc.

The result showed that low and high root zone heating decreased leaf area, total sugar and phenol content compared to root zone temperature 25°C (optimum), while main branches number, pH, E.C. and anthocyanin of fruit,increased at high root zone temperature compared to low root zone temperature. Flavonoid increased under the root zone temperature of 20°C in comparison with temperatures 25 and 30°C, and stem diameter was not affected by root zone heating. Furthermore, salt stress at the level of 3 ds.m-1 increased stem diameter, total sugar, pH and EC of fruit, leaf area and phenol content, whereas salt stress at a high level (6 ds.m-1) increased flavonoid content. Besides, anthocyanin content decreased in control and salt stress at 6 ds.m-1 when compared to salt stress at 3 ds.m-1. © 2021, University of Basrah, College of Agriculture.

Each player chooses one of two strategies with probabilities x and 1-x, where the subjective players bias their choices of the probabilities to be w(x) and w(1-x) to reflect the probability weighting effect of PT. We derive the conditions to achieve a locally asymptotically stable Nash equilibrium (NE) and the necessary conditions to achieve an evolutionary stable strategy (ESS). We illustrate these results through a simple random access channel game. We find that players' behavior is affected by the total number of players as well as the number of each type of players (objective or subjective). We show that increasing the number of interacting players induces an aggressive transmission strategy and the behavior becomes similar for both types of players. Moreover, we let the objective and subjective players adjust their transmission under throughput rewards, delay penalties, and energy costs. The EUT players' throughput is higher than the PT players' throughput for a small number of interacting players and equal to if the number of interacting players increases. © 2013 IEEE.evolutionary games; Game theory; prospect theory; random access wireless channel; replicator dynamicsDecision making; Decision theory; Equipment testing; Probability; Transmissions; Asymptotically stable; Evolutionary games; Evolutionary stable strategies; Expected utility theory; Probability weighting; Prospect theory; Random access channel; Transmission strategies; Game theoryNational Science Foundation, NSF: ACI-1541069This work was supported by NSF under Grant ACI-1541069.Shah, V., Mandayam, N.B., Goodman, D.J., Power control for wireless data based on utility and pricing (1998) Proc. 9th IEEE Int.

The natural anti-aging was extracted from plants and it is demonstrated that this type of stabilizers are suitable for biodegradable polymers. Gynostemma pentaphyllum (0.01–0.03 wt%) were extracted and added to the poly(vinyl chloride) blend. The achieved polymeric films were exposed to an accelerated UV light aging process for 300 hours at ambient temperature. The efficiency of tested natural stabilizer was linked to blank PVC films. FTIR spectroscopy, weight loss, electronic microscope and scanning electron microscopy were performed. Using small amount of natural stabilizer is significantly beneficial because it does not influence the PVC properties. © 2021 Trans Tech Publications Ltd, Switzerland.Gynostemma pentaphyllum; Poly(vinyl chloride); Scanning electron microscope; UV radiation; Weight lossBiodegradable polymers; Chlorine compounds; Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy; Natural polymers; Scanning electron microscopy; Uranium metallography; Aging process; Anti-aging; Electronic microscopes; Exposed to; FTIR spectroscopy; Gynostemma pentaphyllum; Natural stabilizers; Weight loss; Polyvinyl chloridesWe thank Al-Nahrain University and Thi-Qar University for the technical support.Zhu, Q.Y., Hackman, R.M., Ensunsa, J.L., Holt, R.R., Keen, C.L., Antioxidative activities of oolong tea (2002) Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 50, pp. 6929-6934; Yang, F., Shi, H., Zhang, X.W., Yu, L., Two novel anti-inflammatory 21-nordammarane saponins from tetraploid Jiaogulan (Gynostemma pentaphyllum) (2013) J.

The investigative resolution is availed and the behaviour of the heat transfer is inspected under a persistent thermic flux frontier condition. It has been demonstrated that the Nu stubbornly relies upon the power-law index n value. The Nu (Nusselt number) recognizably gets reduced in a range of n from 0 to 0.1. Nonetheless, for n greater than 0.5, there is a monotonic decrement in the Nu with the incremental n, and for n greater than 20, values of the Nu have approached a constant. © 2021, Journal of Thermal Engineering.

The perturbation in behavior of the QDLED can be significantly increased by optoelectronic feedback. Changing the coupling strength between the transmitter and receiver in unidirectional coupling greatly contributes to creating a state of total synchronization between the two systems. Furthermore, the proposed communication model was successful by effectively receiving messages. © 2021, Anka Publishers.

It aims to unveil the ideological discursive formation of Brexit after the referendum, and to investigate the way May squares the rhetoric to persuade the general public and the British/European political Elites to deliver the Brexit deal, though she campaigned pro-European Britain. I conduct a corpus-assisted discourse study approach, using discourse analysis methods and corpus linguistics tools for a case study of a purpose-built corpus of the Prime Minister speeches (2016-2019). The analysis revealed that the Brexit representation eschewed any identification with ‘Europe’ and boosted Eurosceptic sentiments by (1) rationalizing the decision to leave the European Union; (2) proposing a better future after Brexit; (3) appealing to the British people’s emotion to support the Brexit deal. © 2021 Masaryk University.

As a simple extract roselle acts as a general red counterstain, but when treated with an oxidant and metallic mordant it functions as a useful blue nuclear-selective stain. In the past 40 years it has been assumed that oxidation is necessary when preparing a stain from roselle, as of course it is for the related flavonoid dyes hematoxylin and brazilin. However, the chemistry of roselle argues against this. Roselle is a mixture of four closely related compounds: delphinidin 3-sambubioside and cyanidin 3-sambubioside, delphinidin 3-glucoside and cyanidin 3-glucoside. Each of these in turn can exist in 8 different configurations in a complex state of equilibrium largely dependent upon pH. Of these compounds, only three are colored. In plants, and in their complex extracts, formation of these colorless compounds is inhibited by the presence of other colorless aromatic molecules, a stabilizing process termed co-pigmentation. The color of such extracts may be red in the acid range and blue or violet above neutrality. Complexation (chelation) with metal cations occurs above pH 2.8 or 3.0, depending upon the concentration of the metal. Prior oxidation is not needed for such chelation to occur. With Al3+ the resulting metal complex, which we term rosalum, is violet or blue. Following spectrophotometric investigation of this complexation, we were able to formulate a nuclear-selective violet/blue stain without the use of an oxidant. © 2021 The Biological Stain Commission.Anthocyanins: complexation; co-pigmentation; nuclear stain; roselleanthocyanin; coloring agent; plant extract; Hibiscus; metabolism; oxidation reduction reaction; Anthocyanins; Coloring Agents; Hibiscus; Oxidation-Reduction; Plant ExtractsAnthocyanins; Coloring Agents; Plant ExtractsHealth Science Center, University of TennesseeWe thank Dr. Wathiq Sattar Abdul-Hussan, University of Thi Qar, Nasiriyah, Iraq, for technical assistance; Sheila Criswell, University of Tennessee Health Science Center, Memphis, TN; Carol Bain, Indiana University-Purdue University, Indianapolis, IN for help with obtaining specimens; and Richard W.

Let G be a finite graph, undirected, simple and has no isolated vertex, a set D of V (G) is said an arrow dominating set if |N(w) ∩ (V − D)| = i and |N(w) ∩ D| ≥ j for every w ∈ D such that i and j are two non-equal positive integers. The arrow domination number γar (G) is the minimum cardinality over all arrow dominating sets in G. Essential properties and bounds of arrow domination and its inverse when i = 1 and j = 2 are proved. Then, arrow domination number is discussed for several standard graphs and other graphs that formed by join and corona operations. © 2021, Semnan University, Center of Excellence in Nonlinear Analysis and Applications.

Results showed a decrease in the concentration of chlorophyll where the lowest concentration was recorded during the period (2.5) minutes for both algae and reached 0.3 mg l-1 for cladophora and 0.21 mg l-1 for spirogyra. There was increase in the concentration of carotenoids in the cells -1 -1 in both species of algae being 0.037 and 0.18 mg-l, respectively at the period of 2.5 minutes. The resistance of Cladophora compared to Spirogyera for the studied radiation pattern can be attributed to genetic differences between algae. © 2020 Ecological Society of India.

The P-IBI is composed from seven metrics: Species Richness Index (SRI), Density of Phytoplankton and total biomass of phytoplankton and Relative Abundance (RA) for blue-green Algae, Green Algae, Bacillariophyceae and Euglenaphyceae Algae. The average P-IBI values fell within the range of (45.09-52.4). Therefore, water throughout the entire study area was characterized by the equally "poor" quality. Negative points of anthropogenic impact detected at the stations are: Above the city of Rostov-on-Don (1 km, higher duct Aksai) was 38.57 in June, the lower inflow of the Temernik river which was 38.57- 41.42 in summer and below the spillway was 38.57 -34.28 in August. At these stations, samples with P-IBI values more than 56, characterizing water quality as "Fair", were not found in any of the observations. The negative effect on the water at the stations may be due to the influence of the closely located Aksai city and the impact of the Temernik River. In Russia P-IBI have not been used yet, so this study can be considered as the first study that's conducted to assess the environmental status of the Don River by using the phytoplankton index of Biological Integrity and has developed scoring criteria of the Don River (P-IBI) and other watercourses of the south of Russia. The continuous monitoring relaying on the selection of the most suitable metrics score is recommended. © 2021 University of Baghdad.

The experiment is applied by using factorial experiments according to Randomized complete block design with three replications. The treatments included four salt concentrations (0, 2, 4, and 6) ds.m-1 and four Herbal-marine concentrations (0, 0.5, 0.75, 1) g.l-1. The salinity caused a significant increase in the leaves content of proline in the two concentrations (0.75 and 1) g.l-1. As for the number of seeds per pod, there was a significant decrease at the level of (0.75) g.l-1 and there was a significant effect on the seeds yield per plant and productivity of total seeds. Thus, there was a significant decrease in these two characteristics when the salt concentrations increased. The salinity did not significantly affect the protein. At the same time, it caused a significant decrease in the percentage of dry matter in the seeds. Herbal-marine extract caused a significant increase in proline and in the yield characteristics, so it had a significant effect on the number of seeds per pod. Also, it had caused a significant increase in the seeds yield per plant and the total yield of soft seeds, and the extract had a significant effect on the percentage of dry matter and the percentage of protein in the seeds. The interaction showed a significant effect on most of the studied traits such as proline, seeds number per pods, and seeds yield per plant. Thus, it gave a significant increase in the total yield of fresh seeds. The interaction also had a significant effect on the percentage of dry matter in pods and protein. © 2020 DAV College.

An accurate approach is provided to classify NDD patients using gait dynamics. It is developed to extract the most representative features by employing Transient artifact reduction (TAR) and statistical feature extraction method (SM). These features are utilized as inputs for three machine learning methods: K nearest neighbors (k-NN), support vector machine (SVM) and linear discrimination (LD), to evaluate the performance of the proposed approach. Conducting experiments on two databases revealed that the proposed method based on k-NN classifier yielded highest performance among other classifiers. It produced the best performance comparing to TAR-SM with SVM and LD classifiers for both databases. It had 100% overall performance of ACC, PPV and NPV. Comparing the overall performance of TAR-SM based on k-NN classifier with other existing methods showed the efficiency of the proposed method. It gave a 100% accuracy while the highest accuracy achieved in the literature was 96.8%. The high classification performance of the proposed method proves its capability and effectiveness in classifying people with Neurodegenerative diseases using gait dynamics. © 2020 DAV College.

The current study was designed with the aim of .investigating the relationship between serum ferritin and hepatic enzymes in thalassemia. patients, iron is stored primarily in the form of,ferritin in liver cells. The study included 60 patients with thalassemia in; Dhi Qar governorate, distributed between. the two gender during the, research period, their ages ranged between (2-26) years old, blood samples were taken in order to testing of. hemoglobin, ferritin, and liver enzymes (ATP, GOT, GPT), and the same, tests were performed on healthy people 40 person;as they are a control group. The results recorded; a high percentage of,thalassemia incidence in males and a decrease in females. The study also showed; that the incidence of thalassemia reached its peak in the age. group (2-6) years and decreased with age, as it reached its lowest levels in the age, group (22-26) years. The study revealed .a significant decrease (0.05> P) in hemoglobin concentration in thalassemia, patients compared with the;control group, and the results recorded a significant; increase (0.05 P <) in the concentration of ferritin in thalassemia, patients compared with the control group. The current study; also showed a significant increase (P <0.05) in GPT enzyme concentration in thalassemia. patients compared with the control group. There was a significant increase (P <0.05) of GOT enzyme; concentration in patients compared to the,control group. The results indicated. that there was a significant increase (P <0.05) in the concentration of the ALP enzyme in the patients. compared with the control group. © 2021, Institute of Medico-Legal Publications.

In this study, an Extracting Water Machine (EWM) is fabricated, which is a device that can convert water vapor directly into usable and even drinkable water. This study was conducted to evaluate the quantity, chemical quality, and power consumption of condensed water, particularly in areas where the relative humidity is less than 30 %, with an abundance of non-fresh water (i.e., wells, marshes, and others). Three operating strategies were proposed during February, March, April, and May; the experiments were conducted every hour on a particular day of each month for each test using actual climate data of Nasiriya, Iraq in 2020. In the first test, the device operated in dehumidification mode and the ambient air passed directly to the surface of the cooling coil; it has found that the daily condensed water and energy consumption for the four consecutive months under consideration were (16.82, 4.58, 3.93, 4.23) L/day and (0.525, 1.86, 2.175, 2.13) kWh/L, respectively. In the second test, the device also operated on the dry mode, and the air passed through the evaporative cooler and then to the evaporator coil. The results were (36.418, 26.01, 20.895, 19.2) L/day and (0.530, 0.443, 0.550, 0.555) kWh/L respectively. In the last one, the device was run on the cooling mode using an evaporative cooler. The obtained water amounts were (31.93, 38.53, 31.03, 32.29) L/day with (0.530, 0.443, 0.550, 0.555) kWh/L energy consumption for February, March, April, and May. The results indicate the second and third tests are useful under the prevailing climatic conditions. Analysis carried out on the obtained water revealed that some parameters including total dissolved solids and electrical conductivity were within the World Health Organization standard for drinking water. © 2021 Trans Tech Publications Ltd, Switzerland.Cooling mode; Dry mode; Energy consumption; Evaporative cooler; Extracted waterCooling systems; Cooling water; Energy utilization; Extraction; Humidity control; Quality control; Water conservation; Climatic conditions; Design and evaluations; Electrical conductivity; Evaporative coolers; Humidification-dehumidification; Operating strategy; Total dissolved solids; World Health Organization; Potable waterMoore, M., (2003) A World without Walls: Freedom, Development, Free Trade, and Global Governance, , Cambridge University, Cambridge; http://www.who.int/, Drinking-water on; Hite, Kristen A., Seitz, John L., (2012) Global Issues an Introduction, , fifth edition.UK; Drinking-Water from Air Humidity (2009) Science Daily, , Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft; Gad, H.E., Hamed, A.M., El-Sharkawy, I.I., Application of a solar desiccant/collector system for water recovery from atmospheric Air (2001) Renew energy, 22, pp. 541-556; Tygarinov, V., (1947), RU.

This system becomes after including the wetting layer (WL) as a ladder-plus-Y- system. The results show that the high probe field under high SGC can give good entanglement between states of the DQD system. Under the high SGC component, the optical pump was more efficient than the probe signal in increasing entanglement. The application of optical fields into WL reduces quantum entropy. © 2020, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.Quantum dot; Quantum entropy; Spontaneously entanglementMousavi, S.M., Safari, L., Mahmoudi, M., Sahrai, M., Effect of quantum interference on the optical properties of a three-level V-type atomic system beyond the two-photon resonance condition (2010) J.

Their applications diversify between automobiles, aircraft, space vehicles, and others because of their notable offer of mechanical properties, ease of fabrication, and super design flexibility. Moreover, fiber composites are distinguished due to their light weight, excellent fatigue strength, and good corrosion and impact resistance. The current paper investigates the mechanical behavior of a unidirectional fiber reinforced polymer composite lamina consisting of fibers embedded in epoxy resin as a matrix. Micromechanical analysis is done on a square-patterned unit cell of the above composite to predict the longitudinal modulus (E1), Transverse modulus (E2), In-plane shear modulus (G12) and Major Poisson’s ratio (Ѵ12). These engineering constant are evaluated to three types of fiber (E-Glass, R-Glass, and S-Glass) with various fiber volume fractions based on the theory of elasticity approach. Computer Aided Design Environment for Composites (CADEC) software is used to do the numerical analysis. This theoretical investigation helps to realize the bearing ability of unidirectional fiber reinforced composite subjected to longitudinal load by analyzing the engineering design constants. © 2021, The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.Composite lamina; Micromechanics; Unidirectional fiberRajak, D.K., Pagar, D.D., Menezes, P.L., Linul, E., Fiber-reinforced polymer composites: Manufacturing, properties, and applications (2019) Polymers, 11 (10). , https://doi.org/10.3390/polym11101667; Alberto, M., Introduction of fibre-reinforced polymers − polymers and composites: Concepts, properties and processes (2013) Fiber Reinforced Polymers-The Technology Applied for Concrete Repair, , https://doi.org/10.5772/54629; Syam, P.A., Syed, A.H., Pandurangadu, V., Micromechanical analysis of FRP composites (2019) Int.

To get approximate solutions of these equations, we utilize the reduce differential transform method (RDTM) which is based upon the LFDOs. Illustrative examples are given to show the accuracy and reliable results. The obtained solutions show that the present method is an efficient and simple tool for solving the linear and nonlinear PDEs within the LFDOs. © 2021, Semnan University, Center of Excellence in Nonlinear Analysis and Applications.

Daily UVA exposures are weighted to the anatomical human cheek (anterior infra-orbital region) for teachers wearing and not wearing broad-brimmed hats. The method utilizes the OMI UVA irradiance data collected daily at high temporal resolution over 2005 to 2016 to derive the total daily UVA exposure to a horizontal plane. These horizontal plane exposures are scaled by factors to take into account the timing of outdoor activity. The relationship between exposures to a horizontal plane and those to a vertical plane and the protection provided by a broad-brimmed hat was assessed to evaluate the total daily UVA exposures to the cheek for classroom and physical education teaching staff expected to be outside at different periods of the day. The developed method enables the total daily UVA exposure to specific anatomical sites to be evaluated from the satellite solar noon irradiance at locations that do not have access to surface-based instrumentation capable of recording in the solar UVA waveband. © 2020 American Society for PhotobiologyNational Aeronautics and Space Administration, NASAThe authors acknowledge the OMI mission scientists and associated NASA personnel for the production of the data used in this research effort.Kalliskota, S., Kaurola, J., Taalas, P., Herman, J.R., Celarier, E.A., Krotkov, N.A., Comparison of daily UV doses estimated from Nimbus 7/TOMS measurements and ground-based spectroradiometric data (2000) J.

The novelty of this model is that it is focused on providing specified numerical values of Quality of Service indicators such as flow rate and average packet delay. This was achieved by introducing into the multiflow routing model structure the corresponding Quality of Service conditions, which were formulated in an analytical form using the tensor research methodology. At the same time, the space metric was determined by both the service discipline of packets on the routers interfaces and the statistical model of the served flows. In addition, the conditions are formulated in such a way that for each flow transmitted in the network, the resulting average end-to-end packet delays along the set of calculated paths were the same and did not exceed the permissible values. The numerical example has demonstrated the adequacy of the proposed model in terms of the correctness of the obtained calculation results with regard to providing specified values of quality indicators that may differ for each of the packet flows transmitted in the network. © 2021, The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.End-to-end delay; Flow-based model; Load balancing; Multipath routing; Packet rate; QoS; Tensor modelBalancing; Education computing; Engineering education; Network routing; Telecommunication services; Tensors; Average packet delays; Calculation results; Guaranteed quality; Numerical values; Quality indicators; Research methodologies; Service disciplines; Statistical modeling; Quality of serviceDodd, A.Z., (2019) The Essential Guide to Telecommunications (Essential Guide Series), , 6 edn.

Wheat bran is the main by-product of wheat milling and contains >15% high-quality proteins. Extraction of wheat bran proteins (WBPC) and inclusion in spaghetti and bread formulations was studied to determine if the nutritional properties of these foods could be enhanced without deleterious effects on quality. Semolina was substituted with WBPC at 0, 1, 5, 10 and 20% (w/w) and made into spaghetti and a commercial bread flour was substituted with WBPC at 0, 1, 5 and 10% w/w and made into bread. Both spaghetti protein content (12.3 to 23.4%) and total essential amino acids (3.76 to 7.59%) increased with added WBPC. Overall spaghetti quality was acceptable up to 10%WBPC and superior to wholemeal, especially in appearance. However, the bread formulation used was very sensitive to WBPC especially above 1% addition. © 2020 Elsevier LtdAmino acids; Bran; Bread; Cooking quality; Durum wheat; Microstructure; Pasta; Protein concentrateBakeries; Food products; Nutrition; Deleterious effects; Essential amino acids; Industrial by-products; Nutritional properties; Protein concentrates; Protein contents; Technological properties; Wheat milling; Proteins; alanine; ammonium chloride; arginine; ascorbic acid; calcium sulfate; essential amino acid; gluten; glycine; histidine; isoleucine; leucine; lysine; methionine; proline; protein; serine; threonine; tyrosine; valine; xylan endo 1,3 beta xylosidase; amino acid; plant protein; amino acid composition; Article; bread; confocal laser scanning microscopy; controlled study; dough; fortified food; moisture; nutrition; nutritional value; protein content; scanning electron microscopy; semolina; Triticum aestivum; Triticum durum; water absorption; wheat bran; bread; chemistry; cooking; flour; metabolism; procedures; wheat; Amino Acids; Bread; Cooking; Flour; Nutritive Value; Plant Proteins; Triticumalanine, 56-41-7, 6898-94-8; ammonium chloride, 12125-02-9; arginine, 1119-34-2, 15595-35-4, 7004-12-8, 74-79-3; ascorbic acid, 134-03-2, 15421-15-5, 50-81-7; calcium sulfate, 13397-24-5, 23296-15-3, 7778-18-9; gluten, 8002-80-0; glycine, 56-40-6, 6000-43-7, 6000-44-8; histidine, 645-35-2, 7006-35-1, 71-00-1; isoleucine, 7004-09-3, 73-32-5; leucine, 61-90-5, 7005-03-0; lysine, 56-87-1, 6899-06-5, 70-54-2; methionine, 59-51-8, 63-68-3, 7005-18-7; proline, 147-85-3, 7005-20-1; protein, 67254-75-5; serine, 56-45-1, 6898-95-9; threonine, 36676-50-3, 72-19-5; tyrosine, 16870-43-2, 55520-40-6, 60-18-4; valine, 7004-03-7, 72-18-4; xylan endo 1,3 beta xylosidase, 37278-89-0, 9025-55-2; amino acid, 65072-01-7; Amino Acids; Plant ProteinsNSW Department of Primary Industries, DPI; University of New England, UNE; Ministry of Higher Education, MOHE; Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, MHESRThis research was supported by the University of New England and NSW Department of Primary Industries , Australia.

During the past two decades, a sizable, but conflicting, body of literature has supported the use of roselle as a biological stain, and more specifically as a substitute for hematoxylin for staining nuclei selectively. We review the literature and suggest a rational explanation for divergent findings. When used without oxidation and mordanting, roselle is an indiscriminate oversight stain. With appropriate oxidation and mordanting, roselle can be an effective nuclear stain. We propose here use of a stain that is formulated rationally and followed by treatment in a differentiating solution that also acts as a counterstain. We also offer suggestions for improving roselle for the general scientific community. © 2020 The Biological Stain Commission.anthocyanin; cyanidin 3-sambubioside; delphinidin 3-sambubioside; hematoxylin substitute; Hibiscus sabdariffa; nuclear stain; roselleanthocyanin; coloring agent; plant extract; Hibiscus; staining; Anthocyanins; Coloring Agents; Hibiscus; Plant Extracts; Staining and LabelingAnthocyanins; Coloring Agents; Plant ExtractsAbubakar, S., Usman, A.B., Etim, V., Nnadi, O., Alaku, C., Application of organic dyes from roselle calyx (Hibiscus sabdariffa Linn.) for mycological staining (2012) Ind J Innov Dev, 1, pp. 687-690; Agbede, M.B., Benard, S.A., Afolabi, O.O., Okoye, J.O., Bankole, J.K., Fowotade, A.A., Oluntunde, O.A., Muhammed, O.A., The use of Hibiscus sabdariffa extract as nuclear stain for skin morphology and connective tissue with eosin counterstain (2017) Sokoto J Med Lab Sci, 2, pp. 28-32; Bassey, R.B., Bakare, A.A., Peter, A.I., Oremosu, A.A., Osinubi, A.A., Factors influencing extract of Hibiscus sabdariffa staining of rat testes (2012) Biotech Histochem, 87, pp. 403-407; Benard, S.A., Iron-roselle: a progressive nuclear stain substitute for hematoxylin (2008) J Histotechnol, 31, pp. 57-59; Benard, S.A., Muhammed, A.O., Fowotade, A.A., Afolabi, O.O., Oluntunde, O.A., Hibiscus sabdariffa extract as haematoxylin substitute in the histological demonstration of brain tissues (2015) Afr J Cell Pathol, 35, pp. 32-35; Benard, S.A., Muhammed, A.O., Fowotade, A.A., Afolabi, O.O., Oluntunde, O.A., Sorghum bicolor extract: a suitable counterstain in hibiscus extract nuclear staining of liver and kidney (2015) Afr J Cell Pathol, 4, pp. 13-16; Benard, S.A., Afolabi, O.O., Fowotade, A.A., Okoye, J.O., Olutunde, O.A., Bankole, J.K., Hibiscus van Gieson stain for collagen fibers (2017) Afr J Cell Pathol, 9, pp. 1-4; Benard, S.A., Adeniyi, T.D., Bankole, J.K., Okoye, J.O., Histomorphological staining of selected organs by iron-roselle nuclear technique and natural counterstains (2018) J Adv Med Med Res, 28, pp. 1-12; Cardon, D., (2007) Natural dyes: sources, tradition, technology and science, p. 253, 685. , Archetype Publ.: London;,  p; Conn, H.J., Progress in the standardization of stains.

With the help of Internet of Things, IoT industry, connected sensors have a considerable impact on data collection and remote engine monitoring. Mechanical engineers and professionals have difficulties determining when an engine is going to have a malfunction. So, engine maintenance requires an adequate strategy to predict the closest time in which an incident would likely to occur. This research investigates a perfect solution so that engineers will have an earlier alert about the potential incident which might exist. This study gives a visualized time left for how long an engine lifetime is present, accordingly, the system notifies the engineers of the best time to implement the maintenance. The methodology that we follow is setting up an appropriate mechanism by collecting data with IoT, and analyzing such data with classification algorithms. These algorithms categorize the status of an engine into particular conditions, so they indicate how far an engine going to work in an optimal state. Experiments have proved that K-Near Neighbor is the best algorithm for this kind of work in between others like; decision tree and linear discriminant with accuracy 82.9%, 51.0%, and 64.9% respectively. Consequently, classification techniques confidently distinguish the engine condition and warning for necessity of maintenance at the right time and right status. © 2020 IEEE.classification; DT; engine; failure; IoT; KNN; LD; machine learning; maintenance; prediction; sensorsData acquisition; Decision trees; Engineers; Engines; Failure (mechanical); Maintenance; Trees (mathematics); Classification algorithm; Classification technique; Engine maintenance; Linear discriminants; Machine learning classification; Machinery maintenance; Particular condition; Potential incidents; Internet of thingsArcos Jiménez, A., Gómez Muñoz, C., García Márquez, F., Machine learning for wind turbine blades maintenance management (2017) Energies, 11 (1), p. 13. , Dec; Sarker, B.R., Faiz, T.I., Minimizing maintenance cost for offshore wind turbines following multi-level opportunistic preventive strategy (2016) Renewable Energy, 85, pp. 104-113. , Jan; Erfan, M., Ratu, T., Analysis of student difficulties in understanding the concept of newton's law of motion (2018) Jipf (Jurnal Ilmu Pendidikan Fisika), 3 (1), p. 1; Lee, C.K.M., Cao, Y., Ng, K.H., Big data analytics for predictive maintenance strategies (2017) Supply Chain Management in the Big Data Era, Igi Global, pp. 50-74; Zhao, Z., Liang, B., Wang, X., Lu, W., Remaining useful life prediction of aircraft engine based on degradation pattern learning (2017) Reliability Engineering & System Safety, 164, pp. 74-83. , Aug; Cho, S., A hybrid machine learning approach for predictive maintenance in smart factories of the future (2018) Advances in Production Management Systems.

Two types of glass fiber reinforced polymer (bar, mat) were investigated for the strengthening materials. A simulated corrosion rate of 25% was considered in the study. The maximum recorded load of the strengthened beams with GFRP bars showed enhancement in the ultimate strength which reached 89% of the undamaged control beam strength. While using of GFRP mat for strengthening the corroded beams increased only the ductility but had negligible effect on the improvement of ultimate strength. The results indicated that using near surface mounted technique prevents the occurrence of de-bonding failure which results in an enhancement in the crack load and failure load of the tested beams. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Zhang, S.

Traditional methods based on manual approaches applied in seizure detection in electroencephalograms (EEG) have drawbacks (e.g., time constraint, lack of effective feature identification relative to disease symptoms and susceptibility to human errors) that can lead to inadequate treatment options. Designing an automated expert system to detect epileptic seizures can proactively support a neurologist's effort to improve authenticity, speed and accuracy of detecting signs of a seizure. We propose a novel two-phase EEG classification technique to detect seizures from EEG by employing covariance matrix coupled with Adaptive Boosting Least Square-Support Vector Machine (i.e., AdaBoost LS-SVM) framework. In first phase, the covariance matrix is employed as a dimensionality reduction tool with feature extraction applied to analyse epileptic patients’ EEG records. Initially, each single EEG channel is partitioned into respective k segment with m clusters. Subsequently, covariance matrix is adopted with eigenvalues of each cluster extracted and tested through statistical metrics to identify the most representative, optimally classified features. In the second phase, a robust classifier (i.e., AB-LS-SVM) is proposed to resolve issues of unbalanced data, to detect epileptic events, yielding a high classification accuracy compared to its competing counterparts. The results demonstrates that AB-LS-SVM (optimised by a covariance matrix) is able to achieve satisfactory results (>99% accuracy) for eleven prominent features in EEG signals. The results are compared with state-of-art algorithms (i.e., k-means, SVM, k-nearest neighbour, Random Forest) on identical databases, demonstrating the capability of AB-LS-SVM method as a promising diagnostic tool and its practicality for implementation in seizure detection. The study avers that the proposed approach can aid clinicians in diagnosis or interventions to treat epileptic disease, including a potential use in expert systems where EEG needs to be classified through pattern recognition. © 2020 Elsevier LtdAB-LS-SVM; Adaptive Boosting Least Square-Support Vector Machine; Covariance; Eigen values; Electroencephalogram; Epileptic seizure; Health informaticsAdaptive boosting; Bioelectric phenomena; Brain; Chemical detection; Computer aided diagnosis; Covariance matrix; Decision trees; Dimensionality reduction; Eigenvalues and eigenfunctions; Electroencephalography; Expert systems; Feature extraction; K-means clustering; Nearest neighbor search; Neurophysiology; Pattern recognition systems; Support vector machines; Two phase flow; Automated expert systems; Classification accuracy; Electrical activities; Electro-encephalogram (EEG); Feature identification; K-nearest neighbours; Least square support vector machines; Time series signals; Biomedical signal processingRheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn, Uni BonnThe authors acknowledge EEG data from the University of Bonn and the focal and non-focal (Bern-Barcelona) data.

The dispersion and high order nonlinear parameters are calculated with plasma frequency, which did not study earlier as the best our knowledge. The influence of frequency detuning on gain instability is analyzed for two different power pulses. The trends of MMs gain have asymmetric property which agrees with theoretical results published in the global scientific journal. © 2020 Author(s).Instability gain; Linear and nonlinear parameters; MetamaterialsLin, Z., Lin, S., Qiu, W., Fang, Y., Numerical modeling of pulse propagation through a double-negative metamaterial with adjacent absorptive and gain Lorentz dispersions: A comparison (2018) Optik (Stuttg)., 154, pp. 10-14; Xu, Z.G., Xue, Y.L., Huang, Z., Dependence of dispersion on metamaterial structural parameters and dispersion management (2018) Appl.

Results found that microwave is the optimum etching technique, because of the highest track densities and the very short time required 6min to developed the tracks, which are 6212 and 8122 tracks/mm2 when the detector irradiated for 10 and 15s respectively. For water bath and ultrasound appeared at the same time 50min. The track densities for ultrasound were 7110 and 7353 tracks/mm2 when the detectors irradiated for 10 and 15s respectively. 5558 and 5718tracks/mm2 for water bath when the detectors irradiated for 10 and 15s respectively. The chemical etching parameters for the three techniques are determined, the sensitivity (V) of detector at irradiation time 10s found to be 7.436, 1.831 and 1.819, and 8.807, 2.109 and 1.997 at irradiation time 15s for microwave, ultrasound and water bath respectively. The etching efficiency (É) using microwaving is twice the efficiency using water bath and ultrasound, where found 0.865, 0.454 and 0.451 at irradiation time 10s and 0.886, 0.526 and 0.499 at irradiation time 15s for microwave, ultrasound and water bath respectively. © 2020 Author(s).Chemical etching parameters; Etching technique; Lr-115detector; Microwave; Ultrasound; Water bathPandey, A.K., Kalsi, P.C., Iyer, R.H., Effects of high intensity ultrasound in chemical etching of particle tracks in solid state nuclear track detectors (1998) Nucl.

Semitransparent p-type semiconducting NiO x films were utilized as a hole-transport layer. Devices based on the ZnONd considerably outperform those employing ZnO thin films. The contact and electrical properties of NiO x can be carefully tuned through controlling the deposition parameters as well as surface treatments. Intimate contact between NiO x with PANI, created by in situ electrochemical polymerization, greatly improves the charge movement. Furthermore, an O2-plasma treatment of the NiO x film has a significant impact on the performance of polyaniline/ZnONd hybrid photovoltaic devices, reflected by the enhancement in the fill-factor and efficiency. The power conversion efficiency of the ZnONd/PANI/NiO x device under the optimized O2 plasma condition can reach up to 2.79% under AM1.5 illumination. © 2020 The Author(s).

The study was accomplished under a temperature 30±2 0C and humidity 70 ±5%. The result showed the following. 13 species of fungus which belong to five genera were isolated from sound and infested whole flour samples with three numerical levels of the insect. These were (5, 10, 20) pairs and for two generations. The species isolated were: Aspergillus flavesus, A niger, A. terreus, Mucor hiemalis, Alternaria Alternaria, Paecilomyces Sp. Penicillium sp1, Penicillium sp2. Whereas at the two numerical levels (10, 20) pairs of insects, the fungus species Sterils mycelia, A.ustus, Emericella sp, Sepedonium sp. were isolated. The more frequently fungus in the samples of infested flour in the level 20 pairs of insects was A. flavus. Its frequency was (47.37%), also in level 5 pairs of the fungus A niger, which frequency ratio was (42, 58%). In the sound flour samples the more frequency. A. fumigates in level 5 pairs of insects which its frequency was (34, 48%) and in level 20 pairs of insects was the fungus A. niger which its frequency was (66.6%).The results showed that the rate of numerical of fungi increased with increasing levels of numbers of the insects ,the highest rate of fungus numerical was recorded in infested whole flours at the numerical level 10 pairs of insects was (31.41X10)2 colony/ gm. While their average numbers were (15.83×102) colony /gm at level 5 pairs of insects. It was observed that the average number of fungus in flour insects was higher than their numbers in sound flour. © 2020 EManuscript Technologies.

We additionally examine the impact of hereditary and microbiological determinants on IL-10 articulation levels in periodontal injuries. Approach: 117 patients with incessant periodontitis and 58 controls were enrolled. At that point microbiological tests were gotten from the clinical assessment and the presence/bacterial heap of types of periodontopathogens was evaluated by RT-PCR. The genotype for IL-10-592C/A was dictated by limitation section length polymorphism. Results: The allelic dispersion of SNP rs1800872 in the explored populace agreed to the Tough Weinberg balance (p = 0.64). As has just been accounted for, polymorphic subjects indicated a lower articulation of IL- 10 and an expanded danger of experiencing interminable periodontitis. He IL-10-592C/A polymorphism demonstrated no relationship with the recognition or bacterial heap of any of the explored microscopic organisms, furthermore the IL-10 articulation levels were not impacted by the microbiological profile, yet were straightforwardly associated with the genotype for the IL- 10-592C/A polymorphism. © 2020 EManuscript Technologies.

Medicine, Microbiology Department, University of Thi-Qar, IraqThe current work does highlight the DNA fingerprinting of ten uropathogen clinical strains collected from patients suffered from urinary tract infections (UTIs) using: ERIC1b-PCR and PCR detection of stx-1, stx-2, and eae virulence genes. Ten E.coli out of sixty uropathogen clinical strains were isolated from patients suffering from UTIs after culturing the urine samples onto Eosin Methylene Blue, blood agar, and MacConkey, plates agar based on the distinctive colonial morphology of E.coli. Results of API20E system did confirm the identity of the uropathogen ten clinical strains as E.coli. ERIC1b-PCR did show a high potential in discrimination of the ten clinical strains into three groups with respect to their DNA banding patterns. The frequency of occurrence of the three virulence genes stx, espB, and EAF among the ten E.coli clinical strains under study was 100%; inferred from the resulting banding profile of PCR partial amplification with 399, 518, and 633 bp. The present data would underpin the potential of ERIC1b-PCR for strict differentiation among the uropathogen E.coli clinical strains. © 2020, Advanced Scientific Research.

Its performance depends entirely on the value of time quantum. In this paper, an efficient ETRR scheme is proposed. This technique proposed the partitioning of the ready queue into three sub-queues: highest, medium, and lowest priority. It was found out that the assignment of the time quantum value (TQ) to one of those sub-queues is depending on a threshold value. Every sub-queue uses RR scheduling with separated dynamic time quantum TQi for i=1, 2, and 3. All processes in TQ1 must be executed first. Then are in TQ2 and TQ3, respectively. The experimental results show that the ETRR is outperforming other approaches such as SRBRR, ISRBRR, and MFQ. © School of Engineering, Taylor’s UniversityContext switch; CPU scheduling algorithms; Round robin; Time quantum; Turnaround time; Waiting timeSilberschatz, A., Galvin, P., Gagne, G., (2009) Operating System Concepts, , (8th ed).

The first part of the present study is devoted to review the construction process of chimneys, their shapes and dimensions, and properties of masonry units in which chimneys with heights 45, 50, 60, 70 and 80 m were studied. The second part focused on the wind loading analysis using CFD modelling and compared it with wind loads obtained by ASCE7-10, where three wind velocities were taken 30, 42, and 50 m/s. The third part related to 3D numerical model using finite elements method via ANSYS 2020R1 software to study the structural behavior of chimneys under gravity and wind loads in term of deflections and stresses. It is found that chimneys with slenderness ratio up to 11.6 (height = 60 m) re satisfied the design codes requirements for all wind velocities 30−50 m/s for permissible tensile stress, namely with a the factor safety greater than 2.The lateral deflection at the top of the chimney, of heights 45 m and 50 m, for all wind velocities is within permissible limit i.e. (H/650).Wind loadings estimated by CFD analysis is greater than that calculated by ASCE7−10 by about 37 %. © 2020 The AuthorsCFD; Chimneys; Lateral deflection; Masonry; Wind3D modeling; Aerodynamic loads; Computational fluid dynamics; Masonry materials; Numerical methods; Safety factor; Smoke; Wind stress; 3-D numerical modeling; Construction process; Industrial fields; Lateral deflection; Slenderness ratios; Static behaviors; Structural behaviors; Wind velocities; ChimneysBru, D., Ivorra, S., Baeza, F.J., Seismic behavior of a masonry chimney retrofitted with composite materials: a preliminary approach (2017) Int.

These bacteria most often infect immunocompromised people, and treatment is often difficult and complicated for those infected due to multiple resistance. This review also demonstrated the benefit of using plant extracts and aromatic oils as alternatives to antibiotics as an inhibitor against P. aeruginosa. During previous studies, it was shown that most of the isolates were distributed among burn infections, wounds, urinary and respiratory tract infections, sputum, and blood poisoning. In addition, this review focused on virulence genes and their major role in bacterial resistance to antibiotics, as well as identifying the main P. aeruginosa genes to be used in the speed of diagnosis. Among the most important of these virulence factors is biofilm formation, β-lactamase production, Pyocyanins, and other enzymes. This review also identified the differences between clinical and environmental isolates and the extent of the effect of random use of antibiotics and the modifications that occurred to bacteria that made them resistant to these antibiotics. © 2020 EManuscript Technologies.

We used the DFT method, which implemented in the Quantum espresso package, to calculate various electronic properties computed. These impurities altered the behavior of the GNS from metal to semiconductor. Metal-doped GNS and anticancer drugs/pristine GNS became more stable and lower reactivity due to the total energy of these structures increased compared to the pristine GNS. The electronic band gap of the anticancer drugs/pristine GNS rehabilitated and opened. Furthermore, the metal-doped GNS as a carrier to the anticancer drugs was an exothermic process. Then, anticancer drugs/metal-doped GNS thermodynamically stable due to these structures have negative adsorption energies. Besides, we detected that these complex structures were required higher energy to donating/accepting and electron to become cation/anion due to these structures have a lower value of the electron affinity and higher value of the chemical hardness. Moreover, there was a great interaction between pristine GNS and metal impurities; also between metal-doped GNS and anticancer drugs. Then, GNS and metal-doped GNS have been used as drug delivery systems. © 2020adsorption energies; Anticancer drugs; Dft; Electronic band gap; graphene nanosheet; Total energyBalog, R., Jørgensen, B., Nilsson, L., Andersen, M., Rienks, E., Bianchi, M., Bandgap opening in graphene induced by patterned hydrogen adsorption (2010) Nat Mater, 9, pp. 315-319; Sirikumara, H.I., Putz, E., Al-Abboodi, M., Jayasekera, T., Symmetry induced semimetal-semiconductor transition in doped graphene (2016) Sci Rep, 6, pp. 1-8; Rani, P., Jindal, V., Designing band gap of graphene by B and N dopant atoms (2013) RSC Adv, 3, pp. 802-812; Mohammed, M.H., Designing and engineering electronic band gap of graphene nanosheet by P dopants (2017) Solid State Commun, 258, pp. 11-16; Al-Asadi, A.S., Hassan, Q.M., Abdulkader, A.F., Mohammed, M.H., Bakr, H., Emshary, C., Formation of graphene nanosheets/epoxy resin composite and study its structural, morphological and nonlinear optical properties (2019) Opt Mater (Amst), 89, pp. 460-467; Barnard, A.S., Snook, I.K., Modelling the role of size, edge structure and terminations on the electronic properties of graphene nano-flakes (2011) Modelling and Simulation in Materials Science and Engineering, 19, pp. 1-9; Son, Y.-W., Cohen, M.L., Louie, S.G., Half-metallic graphene nanoribbons (2006) Nature, 444, pp. 347-349; Son, Y.-W., Cohen, M.L., Louie, S.G., Energy gaps in graphene nanoribbons (2006) Phys.

The two-step technique is used to prepare ionanofluid (INF) by dispersing multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) in two concentrations 0.5 and 1 wt% in ionic liquid (IL). Two types of ionic liquids (ILs) were used: hydrophilic represented by 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate [EMIM][BF4] and hydrophobic represented by 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate [HMIM][PF6]. The thermophysical properties of the prepared INFs including thermal conductivity (TC), density and viscosity were measured experimentally. The TC measurement showed an enhancement of about 3% for INF and of 1% MWCNT in [EMIM][BF4] at a temperature of 298.15 K: the TC was 0.186 W/m.K, the kinematic viscosity was 100 centistokes (cSt), and the density was 1.283 g.cm-3. On the other hand, the TC of 1% MWCNT in [HMIM][PF6] INF enhanced by 5%. In this case, at a temperature of 298.15 K, the TC was 0.158 W/m, the kinematic viscosity was 1200 cSt, and the density was 1.294 g.cm-3. Furthermore, the stability of the prepared INFs was measured using the zeta potential method after 28 days of preparation. The results show very good dispersion of the nanoparticles in the ILs for all the prepared INFs. The zeta potential was -69.30 mV and - 45.34 mV for 0.5% and 1% MWCNT in [EMIM][BF4], respectively. On the other hand, zeta potential was -51.78 and -46.67 mV for 0.5% and 1% MWCNT in [HMIM][PF6], respectively. According to the obtained results, the preferable INFs to use as a cooling medium at 25 °C was the INF of 1 wt% MWCNT in [EMIM][BF4], since it provides better thermophysical properties than the other prepared INFs. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Karami, M, Akhavan Bahabadi, M A, Delfani, S, Ghozatloo, A, A new application of carbon nanotubes nanofluid as working fluid of low-temperature direct absorption solar collector (2014) Sol.

Wind power can be improved or restricted by adjusting the pitch angles of the wind turbine blade. The wind turbine model is non-linear. Therefore, a smart controller must be designed to adjust the angles of the blade. In this study, the simulated and code method was with the MatLab program to control the angle between the chord line of the blade and incoming wind direction using a type of the neural network (NN) control. The results from the simulation show that the NN proposed controller is very effective for adjusting the pitch angles. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Comech, M.P., (2008) Modelling wind farms for grid disturbance studies, 33, pp. 2109-2121. , https://doi.org/10.1016/j.renene.2007.12.007, ÃM.

The aim of this work is to study the dynamic stability of double FGM micro pipes conveying fluid depending on a modified couple stress theory. The two micro pipes are connected together continuously through elastic spring. The vibration equations with boundary conditions are acquired based on Hamilton's principle and subsequently, solved by Galerkin's method. The results of this research were compared with results reported in the literature. A reasonable agreement was found. Also, the influences of a gradient index of the material, a parameter of a length scale, the outer diameter of micro-pipe on the critical flow velocity and resonant frequencies are discussed. The results displayed that the critical velocities and natural frequencies are increased hastily with an increase in a gradient index n © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Critical flow velocity; Galerkin s method; Graded double micro Pipe conveying fluid; Natural frequencyPaidoussis, M.

The influence of droplet size and contact angle on the performance of heat transfer is investigated. The condensation heat transfer obtained using MATLAB software to find the optimum function that enhances the performance. The wetting behavior is discussed under the atmospheric condition by considering the non-condensable gas. The effect of thermal boundary layers resulted from the droplet conduction, interfacial, coating, non-condensable gas, convection heat transfer was considered as well. The heat transfer rate is influenced by the droplet diameter for both hydrophilic and hydrophobic surfaces. The heat transfer rate increased by 30% when the droplet diameter is 1.5 mm than the droplet diameter is 2.5mm. The contact angle has affected the performance of heat transfer on hydrophilic surfaces. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Condensation; Contact angle; Droplet diameter; Heat transfer rate; Hydrophilic; HydrophobicMohammed, K.

The predictions of "single-phase and two- phase heat transfers"in the aluminum micro-channel heat sink have been investigated". "Different heat fluxes and different mass fluxes have been applied "(each mass flow rate under numerous heats fluxes) in an aluminum parallel channel test piece is tested". "It was built up from a piece of aluminum,"twenty-five mm wide by twenty-five mm long and ten mm high"."R113 working fluid temperature was constant (25 C) for all prediction tests; "Therefore the heat applies have been applied "in the ranges of (40-600 Watts) "The processes and iteration loops have reached for the prediction heat transfer properties "for three mass flow rates are (0.0125;0.015 and 0.0175 kg/s) "respectively;"and another heat transfer properties. "The aluminum micro-channels heat sink"with 0.5 mm channel height and 0.5 mm channel width "is heated via a wire electrical heater device". "The single-phase and two-phase flows are important parameters"for geometrical configuration of the aluminum micro-channels under variations heat applied".

This study utilised a natural adsorbent, kaolin clay to remove pollutants' dye (Methylene Blue) from aqueous solutions. Batch studies were conducted to evaluate the adsorption efficiency for dye removal from aqueous solution under varying conditions such as initial pH (pH), contact time, initial dye concentration on adsorption of dye. The optimum pH was found to be 6. The investigations in this study showed that 83% of dye removal can be achieved at the first 50th min. Meanwhile, 60 min was enough to reach the equilibrium state. Additionally, the results revealed that 100 mg/l of kaolin can lead to increase the 83 mg/g of adsorbed dye amount. The maximum removal was 89 % when the quantity of kaolin dosage increased to be 1.5 g. To sum up it, using kaolin as adsorbent material showed high efficiency to remove the dye which can be another addition for serious water pollution treatment efforts. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Farhan, S L, Jasim, I A, Al-Mamoori, S K, The Transformation of The City of Najaf, Iraq: Analysis (2019) Reality and Future Prospects Journal of Urban Regeneration and Renewal, 13, pp. 1-12;

The fractional derivatives are described in terms of Caputo sense. This method is the combination of the Sumudu transform (ST) and variational iteration method (VIM). The solution of the suggested technique is represented in a series form, which is convergent to the exact solution of the given problems. Furthermore, the results of the present method have shown close relations with the exact approaches of the investigated problems. Illustrative examples are discussed, showing the validity of the current method. The attractive and straightforward procedure of the present method suggests that this method can easily be extended for the solutions of other nonlinear fractional-order partial differential equations. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Caputo fractional derivative.; Klein-Gordon equation; Sumudu transform; variational iteration methodShah, R., A novel method for the analytical solution of fractional Zakharov-Kuznetsov equations (2019) Advances in Difference Equations, 517, pp. 1-14; Podlubny, I., (1999) Mathematics in Science and Engineering, , Fractional Differential Equations, (New York: Academic Press); Kumar, D., Singh, J., Kumar, S., Numerical computation of nonlinear fractional Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation arising in ion-Acoustic waves (2014) J.

Otherwise, the data received from extraneous device can lead to errors in the operation of the device or even to a complete loss of its functionality or data. In order to identify the challenges of the transfer of blocks, this study focuses on the influence of the number of unauthorized blocks, on the speed and RAM expenses during the data analysis process. The described method allows to reduce the costs of hardware, which exchanges and analyzes blocks of information. This is done with the help of a buffer to store information and with a set of mathematical equations. And measure the extent of the effect of intensity of receiving unauthorized blocks and hash field length. © 2020 Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Analysis of information blocks; Buffer; Method of reducing hardware costs; Hash; Unauthorized BlocksMaruhnenko, A.

The fractional derivative is described in the Caputo sense. This method is the combination of the Sumudu transform (ST) and homotopy analysis method (HAM). The method in general is easy to implement and yields good results. Illustrative examples are included to demonstrate the validity and applicability of the new technique. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Caputo fractional derivative.; Fractional differential equations; homotopy analysis method; Sumudu transformAlizadeh, S., Baleanu, D., Rezapour, S., Analyzing transient response of the parallel RCL circuit by using the Caputo-Fabrizio fractional derivative (2020) Advances in Difference Equations, 55, pp. 1-19; Podlubny, I., (1999) Mathematics in Science and Engineering, , Fractional Differential Equations, (New York: Academic Press); Ray, S.

There is reason to believe that PSCs are a strong competitor in the photovoltaic field with silicone and CIGS solar cells. The well understanding of the operation mechanism of PSCs is essential and mandatory to furtherly improve device performance. The shape and excitation type is like to inorganic semiconductor solar cells. This work is concerned about the design and studies of lead-based perovskite solar cell model with the flexible architecture of ITO/TiO2/CH3NH3PbI3/Cu2O/Au and analyzed using the solar cell capacitance simulator (SCAPS-1D), we study the effects of the thicknesses for all active materials which are ETM, HTM and Perovskites in addition to environment temperature on the main parameters of our device solar cells. Method/Analysis: Solar cell device assessment is conducted using a Solar Cell Power Simulator(SCAPS). This is a computer-based software tool and is well equipped to conduct research into photovoltaic structures with barriers to homo and heterojunctions, multi-junctions, and Schottky. This model optimizes various parameters such as the thickness, Electron Transport Material (ETM) (ND and NA) doping concentrations, and Hole Transport Material (HTM). Achievement and simulates electrons and holes based on the Poisson's and continuity equation The effected thickness of CH3 NH3 PbI3 different from 0.2μm to 1μm and the finest results are observed at 0.2μm. Improvements: Efficiency is constant at different temperatures when using the finest thickness for the material where the efficiency reached 21%. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Kojima, A, Teshima, K, Shirai, Y, Miyasaka, T, Organometal halide perovskites as visible-light sensitizers for photovoltaic cells (2009) J Am Chem Soc, 131, pp. 6050-6051; Yang, WS, Noh, JH, Jeon, NJ, Kim, YC, Ryu, S, Seo, J, High-performance photovoltaic perovskite layers fabricated through intramolecular exchange (2015) Science, 348, pp. 1234-1237; Yin, W-J, Yang, J-H, Kang, J, Yan, Y, Wei, S-H, Halide perovskite materials for solar cells: a theoretical review (2015) J Mater Chem A, 3, pp. 8926-8942; AbdulAlmohsin, A, Mohammed, M, Li, Z, Multi-walled carbon nanotubes as a new counter electrode for dye-sensitized solar cells (2012) J Nanosci Nanotechnol, 12, pp. 2374-2379; (2018), https://www.nrel.gov/pv/assets/images/efficiency-chart-20180716.jpg, Best Research-cell Efficiencies, NREL; Mahani, N., Pseudo-system-level network-on-chipdesign and simulation with VHDL: A comparative case study on simulation time trade-offs (2016) Indian Journal of Science and Technology, 9, pp. 1-7. , Feb Crossref; Hamid, HG, Innovative conceptual design on a tracked robot using TRIZ method for passing narrow obstacles (2016) Indian Journal of Science and Technology, 9, p. 1. , 5 Feb; Malathi, M, Ramar, K, Paramasivam, C, Obtaining feasible paths with obstacle avoidance using watershed algorithm through simulation (2016) Indian Journal of Science and Technology, 9, pp. 1-9. , Feb Crossref; Hatem, A, Mzoughi, D, Arafet, B, Adelkader, M, Modeling and Simulation of 1.2 kW Nexa PEM Fuel Cell System (2016) Indian Journal of Science and Technology, 9, p. 1. , 8 Mar; Mezaal, YS, New compact microstrip patch antennas: Design and simulation results (2016) Indian Journal of Science and Technology, 9, pp. 1-6. , Mar Crossref; Niemegeers, A, Decock, Burgelman, Verschraegen, J, Degrave, S, (2013) SCAPS manual UGent-ELIS, p. 1. , 110 Sep; Zheng, S., Wang, G., Liu, T., Lou, L., Xiao, S., Yang, S., Materials and structures for the electron transport layer of efficient and stable perovskite solar cells (2019) Sci.

This system is currently modeled by very complex equations which are intractable analytically and numerically. The model derived is simple, and efficient to provide full insight of the dynamics of the QDLs while compared with the well-known classical models. The equilibrium points and stability analysis of critical points is carried out. Various bifurcation scenarios are obtained numerically showing several striking routes to chaos. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.bifurcation; chaos; coexisting behavior; QDLs; stabilityPecora, L.

The results show that all modes except TE 1 achieved forward propagation and then turned backwards. The effective refractive index value at which the propagation type is reversed increases with the mode order and the thickness of the middle layer. In addition, an anisotropic property in the metamaterial layer shift the modes curves (exept TE 1) to left or right with respect to the isotropic case. Furthermore, the mode TE 1 is abnormal and inconsistent with the behavior of other modes. Except TE 1 mode, the confinement factor is small in the forward propagation region and reaches large values in the backward propagation region. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.guided modes; metamaterial; slab waveguideWong-Ng, W., Rawn, C., Crystallography of functional materials (2017) Crystals, 7, p. 279; Nefedov, I., Tretyakov, S., Waveguide containing a backward-wave slab (2003) Radio Sci, 38, pp. 1101-1110; Wu, B., Grzegorczyk, T., Zhang, Y., Kong, J., Guided modes with imaginary transverse wavenumber in a slab waveguide with negative permittivity and permeability (2003) J.

Several chemicals are effective in skin whitening, while some of them are toxic or have problematic safety profiles. The products requiring to contain either kind of whiting agents were seen to display labeling issues. Such an elevated number of differences suggested concerns of whether such differences between stated and revealed content of whiting agents. The Analytical chemical measurements of these objects look necessary, no reliable analytical methods have been recorded to determine most of these chemicals. Just the measurement of hydroquinone and some of its ethers is treated by a method registered by the European Commission. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Burger, P., Landreau, A., Azoulay, S., Michel, T., Fernandez, X., Skin whitening cosmetics: Feedback and challenges in the development of natural skin lighteners (2016) Cosmetics, 3; Arbab, A.

Graph theoretical systems have many good features among different segmentation schemes. It organizes the image elements into mathematically and structural form, and makes the problem formulation more flexible, and the computation more efficient. In this paper, the work, consists of two stages, in the first stage we apply the pixel-based labeling algorithm to the binary image, the algorithm works similarly to the eight connectivity labeling, but it is broader than it in terms of the search area, where two (horizontal and vertical) thresholds are first defined so that the search is in a block whose height is the vertical threshold and its width (2 ∗ horizontal threshold), in the second stage the output of the first stage is mapping into an undirected weighted graph, in which each vertex represent region rather than pixel. We evaluate the results by comparing it with other method using (RI) parameter. We use 50 image from online source and image taken from Berkeley database. © 2020 Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.CCL; graph; segmentation based-graph(2011) Digital Image Processing and Analysis, , (second edition, by Taylor & Francis Group, LLC); Wang, G., Li, W., Zuluaga, M.

There have been several routing algorithms commonly set up WSN. In the sensor network, a large number of inexpensive sensors with small batteries are deployed in the area to be monitored, which has to survive for a long time, where it is difficult or even impossible to implement the sensor battery replacement. Consequently, power consumption is an important factor to consider when designing WSN. We proposed a new scheme to investigate the cluster in heterogeneous WSN, the clustering by using Fuzzy-Logic Stable Election Protocol (SEP-FUZZY), since the Fuzzy Logic Inference System (FIS)is used in the clustering process. FIS work with two input (nodes' remaining-energy(R-energy), and its distance from the base station(D2BS)). Results from the simulation indicate that the lifespan of the network reached by the suggested approach will be improved by almost (47 %, 35.7 %, and 23.8 %) more than that gained by the protocols "(LEACH, PEGASIS, and SEP)". © 2020 Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.clustering; Fuzzy logic; SEP; WSNsAkkaya, K., Younis, M., A survey on routing protocols for wireless sensor networks (2005) Ad hoc networks, 3, pp. 325-349; Abood, B., Al-Rikabi, Y.

To help accelerate these efforts, we have performed a research for tautomers formations of favipiravir as possible RNA polymerase enzyme inhibitors and mitigating the virus ability. This study provides important electronic and optical properties of tautomers determined by density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent density function theory (TD-DFT) calculations in gas phase and in water. A series of favipiravir derivatives was designed, and study the effect of the HOMO-LUMO energy gap on the efficacy of inhibitors. It has been determined that H-atom positions change and substituting fluorine (F) by hydroxyl (OH) group of tautomers affects the energy gap and dipole moment values. Among all compounds, the results have shown that Fb4 form with OH is most potent inhibitory activity in both gas phase and water. These investigations indicated that these tautomers could be potentially developed into drugs, but further investigations are still required to examine the cytotoxicity and consequent side reactions. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.COVID-19; Favipiravir; Inhibition; Tautomerism; TD-DFTHarismah, K, Mirzaei, M, Favipiravir: Structural Analysis and Activity against COVID-19 (2020) Adv J Chem Sect B Nat Prod Med Chem, 2, pp. 55-60; Cai, Q, Yang, M, Liu, D, Chen, J, Shu, D, Xia, J, Experimental treatment with favipiravir for COVID-19: an open-label control study Engineering (2020); Chen, C, Huang, J, Cheng, Z, Wu, J, Chen, S, Zhang, Y, Favipiravir versus arbidol for COVID-19: a randomized clinical trial MedRxiv (2020); Nyarko, RO, Boateng, E, Kahwa, I, Boateng, PO, (2020) A Comparison analysis on remdesivir, favipiravir, hydroxychloroquine, chloroquine and azithromycin in the treatment of corona virus disease 2019 (Covid-19)-A Review; Guo, Q, Xu, M, Guo, S, Zhu, F, Xie, Y, Shen, J, The complete synthesis of favipiravir from 2-aminopyrazine (2019) Chem Pap, 73, pp. 1043-1051; Niloofa, R, de zoysa, I, Seneviratne, PS, Abeysuriya, V, de Mel, S, (2020) Favipiravir in Covid-19 19 143-5 Mar 20; Antonov, L., (2020) Favipiravir tautomerism: a short theoretical report; Parlak, C, Alver, Ö, Şenyel, M, Computational study on favipiravir adsorption onto undoped-and silicon-decorated C60 fullerenes (2017) J Theor Comput Chem, 16, p. 1750011; da Silva, G, (2020) Protonation, Tautomerism, and Base Pairing of the Antiviral Favipiravir (T-705); Du, Y, Chen, X, Favipiravir: pharmacokinetics and concerns about clinical trials for 2019-nCoV infection (2020) Clin Pharmacol Ther; Khambholja, K, Asudani, D, Potential repurposing of Favipiravir in COVID-19 outbreak based on current evidence (2020) Travel Med Infect Dis, , 101710; Arab-Zozani, M, Hassanipour, S, GHoddoosi, -Nejad Dj, (2020) Favipiravir for treating novel coronavirus (COVID-19) patients: protocol for a systematic review and meta-analysis of controlled trials medRxiv; Martin, YC, Let's not forget tautomers (2009) J Comput Aided Mol Des, 23, p. 693; Martin, YC, Experimental and pKa prediction aspects of tautomerism of drug-like molecules (2018) Drug Discov Today Technol, 27, pp. 59-64; Katritzky, AR, Hall, CD, El-Gendy, BE-DM, Draghici, B, Tautomerism in drug discovery (2010) J Comput Aided Mol Des, 24, pp. 475-484; Fong, C, (2018) Role of stable free radicals in conjugated antioxidant and cytotoxicity treatment of triple negative breast cancer; Fong, C, Toxicology of platinum anticancer drugs: oxidative stress and antioxidant effect of stable free radical Pt-nitroxides (2019); Rhyman, L, Tursun, M, Abdallah, HH, Choong, YS, Parlak, C, Kharkar, P, Theoretical investigation of the derivatives of favipiravir (T-705) as potential drugs for Ebola virus (2018) Phys Sci Rev, 3; Liu, W, Zhu, H-M, Niu, G-J, Shi, E-Z, Chen, J, Sun, B, Synthesis, modification and docking studies of 5-sulfonyl isatin derivatives as SARS-CoV 3C-like protease inhibitors (2014) Bioorg Med Chem, 22, pp. 292-302; Parlak, C, Alver, Ö, Ramasami, P, Adsorption Mechanisms of 6-Chloro-3-Hydroxy-2-Pyrazinecarboxamide on Pristine Si-and Al-Doped C 60 Fullerenes: A DFT Study (2017) J Clust Sci, 28, pp. 2645-2652; Stephens, PJ, Devlin, FJ, Chabalowski, CF, Frisch, MJ., Baker, J., Andzelm, J., Muir, M., Taylor, PR, (1994) Chem Phys J Phys Chem, 98, p. 11623; Fong, C., (2020) Eigenenergy, Adelaide (Australia) Inhibition of COVID-2019 3C-like protease: structure activity relationship using quantum mechanics; Fong, C., (2020) Eigenenergy, Adelaide (Australia) Comparison of choline blood brain barrier and neuronal transport and anticholinesterase inhibitory properties of potential cationic Alzheimers disease drugs; Fong, CW, Permeability of the blood-brain barrier: molecular mechanism of transport of drugs and physiologically important compounds (2015) J Membr Biol, 248, pp. 651-669; Fong, C., (2017) The extravascular penetration of tirapazamine into tumours: a predictive model of the transport and efficacy of hypoxia specific cytotoxic analogues and the potential use of cucurbiturils to facilitate delivery; Fong, C., (2019) Screening anti-colorectal cancer drugs: free radical chemotherapyYasir, H.M.; Suq Ash Shuyukh Hospital, Iraq; email: hammoodalyasir@gmail.comShafik S.S.Roomi A.B.Sharrad F.I.IOP Publishing Ltd2nd International Scientific Conference of Al-Ayen University, ISCAU 202015 July 2020 through 17 July 202016518717578981EnglishIOP Conf.

The system is able to collect information about key environmental parameters, such as temperature, relative humidity, Water level within irrigation water tanks, light ratio, CO2 dosage and soil dryness within the greenhouse. Analog signals from different sensors are converted to digital values by taking advantage of the ability of GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) to convert analog signal to digital without the use of microcontroller. This information is transmitted wirelessly to the central computer to be processed and decided on by way of applying a simple fuzzy input system to send appropriate digital commands via the digital outputs of the system to regulate the glass house parameters within acceptable limits. The collected data and control commands that are applied in the database are stored to be analyzed for purposes of improving Agriculture. © 2020 Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.and Control System; Greenhouse; GSM; Irrigation; WSNsHade Aniket, H., Sengupta, M.K., (2014) Automatic Control of Drip Irrigation System & Monitoring of Soil By Wireless (IOSR-JAVS) 7 Ver.

The modes and the effective refractive index associated with each wavelength were derived using the COMSOL MULTIPHYSICS based on the Finite Element Method. The electrical permetivity was studied using the relationship Lorentz derode to determine the real part for the refractive index and the imaginary part responsible for the attenuation coefficient. Where a frequency range was chosen to hold negative values for the real part. The results show that when drawing the relationship between (ϵr ) or (ϵi ) a function of the wavelength that gold has the highest value and then silver, copper and then aluminum, but in the case of (nr ) or (ni ) we notice that aluminum has the highest elements. (neff ) has also drawn as a function of the wavelength, the four metals, and different of the core radius (a=100, 200, 300, 400, 500) for the three modes (LP 01,LP 11,LP 21) and the metal used. It is observed that increasing the mode index increases the lobes where the mode (LP 01) is one spot and the mode (LP11) is two spot and the mode (LP 21) is four spot, where the power index increase is the increase in red and yellow color, and this applies to all modes. In other words, by controlling the radius of the core and wavelength, we can balance the ratio of power that propagation forward and backward. The refractive index (neff) has the highest value at small wavelengths and then begins to decrease with increasing wavelength, and has the highest value in the case of gold, then silver, then copper. Then aluminum, which is less than the rest of the elements. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Nobel Metals; Permittivity; Plasmonic Fiber; Refractive IndexMonfared, Y.

Lead-based perovskites (CH3NH3PbX3, X=Cl, I, Br) solar cells have recently achieved high efficiency of ∼19.3 percent, well exceeding most thin-film and organic solar cells' efficiencies despite its potential for photovoltaic applications, organometal halide perovskites have attracted considerable attention recently and are also considered as promising materials in light-emitting devices. In particular, photovoltaic devices with efficiencies above 20 percent have been prepared using organometal halide perovskites as absorbent materials in the last few years A planar. The standard design for a planar hetero-junction perovskite-based solar cell is: Back electrode/Hole Transport Material (HTM)/Perovskite absorber / Electron Transport Material (ETM) / Transparent electrode. The hole mobility and acceptor concentration of the HTM, interface trap density, and work-function of back contact metal have shown a significant influence on the device performance. Also with these good merits.In this research, two types of ETM (TiO2and ZnO) were used with the Perovskite CH3NH3PbBr3and was found that the use of TiO2 with perovskite achieved high efficiency of 41.85% while the use of ZnO with perovskites we obtained an efficiency 17.67%. Method/Analysis: Solar cell architecture assessment is conducted using Solar Cell Power Simulator(SCAPS). This is a computer-based software tool and is well equipped to research photovoltaic structures with barriers to homo and heterojunctions, multi-junctions, and Schottky. This model optimizes various parameters such as thickness, absorber layer density, Electron Transport Material (ETM),Density of accepter and donor (ND and NA), and Hole Transport Material (HTM) doping concentrations.

In this paper, the proposed technique for document compression will be presented.The proposed technique is a lossless and completed technique it is consists of two parts the compression part and decompression part. The compression part contains of some basic stages such as: pre-processing, blocks processing, run length encoding(RLE), replace maximum values by unused values, minimize levels, delta encoding, compression of ones values, encryption. After the encryption process is complete, the outputs are stored in two separate binary files with the extension of bmp;one of them is the header file and is considered a key for the second file which contains the compressed data. This technique applied on twenty documents and compared with other methods compression such as RLE, jpeg, tiff and png. The experimental results showed that the proposed technique gives a higher compression ratio than the rest of the methods. © 2020 Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Data compression; delta encoding; lossless; run-length encoding (RLE)poonamYadav, Digital image processing, , AbhishakYadav; Oswal, S, Singh, A, Kumari, K, Deflate Compression Algorithm International Journal of Engineering Research and General Science; Maan, A J, Analysis and Comparison of Algorithms for Lossless Data Compression (2013) International Journal of Information and Computation Technology; Semiconductor, F., (2011) Using the Run Length Encoding Features on the MPC5645S; GauravVijayvargiya, S., Pandey, R.

Five binuclear complexes were synthesised by direct reaction of the corresponding metal chloride (CoCl2, NiCl2, CuCl2, SnCl2, and BaCl2) with the Schiff base ligand. Obtained Salen metal complexes characterised by, FT-IR and 1H-NMR, and mass spectra, spectra studies suggests that Schiff base ligand behaves as dimetalic N bidentate at metal centres. Also, these Salen complexes were tested for antibacterial activity using the Broth dilution method against two strains of gram negative bacteria (E coli G-and Klebsialla G-). © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Radha, V.P., Kirubavathy, S.

It provides services on-demand based on pay-as-you-go basis. Task scheduling and load balancing are important research issues in cloud computing. Task scheduling means distributing tasks to resources (Virtual Machines) while load balancing refers to distribution tasks among resources to even workload. In this paper, we propose an Effective Load Balancing Algorithm with Deadline constraint (ELBAD). The ELBAD allocates nearest deadline tasks each time to the highest speed Virtual Machines (VMs) then it balances workload among VMs. The proposed algorithm is compared with other existing algorithms such as FCFS, SJF, Min-Min and EDF and experimental results show superiority of ELBAD over others with respect to minimizing makespan and maximizing resource utilization. © 2020 Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Cloud computing; Deadline constraint; Load Balancing; Makespan; Task scheduling; Virtual MachineArif, K.

The program (Hyper Chem) was used to draw ligands and their complexes and to show the distribution of electron density. The results obtained from the study of magnetic sensitivity and molar conductivity of the prepared ligand complexes confirmed that the geometry shape of [L1CoCl3] is an octahedral complex, while [L1CuCl2] is a square planner complex. The results of molar conductivity also confirmed that the prepared cobalt complex is electrolytic, while the [L1CuCl2] complex is non-electrolytic. The biological activity of the prepared ligand and its complexes were tested against two types of bacteria Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia Coli in comparison with the standard inhibitor (Ciprofloxacin), the obtained results confirmed the biological activity of the prepared ligand was more than the standard inhibitor (Cipro) against Escherichia coli also the complexes (A1, A2) showed higher biological activity than the standard inhibitor (Cipro) against Escherichia coli (Gram-negative), the ligand and its prepared complexes don't show biological activity against Staphylococcus aureus(Gram-positive). © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.1H-NMR; Biological Activity; FTIR; Magnetic Sensitivity; Molar Conductivity; Schiff base; ThiadiazoleAbo Dena, AS, To the memory of Hugo Schiff: Applications of Schiff bases in potentiometric sensors (2014) Russ J Appl Chem, 87, pp. 383-396; Yadav, S, Singh, R V, Ferrocenyl-substituted Schiff base complexes of boron: synthesis, structural, physico-chemical and biochemical aspects (2011) Spectrochim Acta A Mol Biomol Spectrosc, 78, pp. 298-306; Nadhiya, VD, Kumaresan, R, Combined Experimental and Computational Investigation of 2-(2-Hydroxyphenylimino) Phenolic Derivatives: Synthesis, Molecular Structure and NLO Studies (2017) Int J Org Chem, pp. 185-217. , 07; Kajal, A, Bala, S, Kamboj, S, Sharma, N, Saini, V, Schiff Bases: A Versatile Pharmacophore (2013) J Catal, 2013, pp. 1-14. , (Mic); Bharti, N, Maurya, MR, Naqvi, F, Azam, A, Synthesis and antiamoebic activity of new cyclooctadiene ruthenium(II) complexes with 2-Acetylpyridine and benzimidazole derivatives (2000) Bioorganic Med Chem Lett, 10, pp. 2243-2245; Qin, W, Long, S, Panunzio, M, Biondi, S, Schiff bases: A short survey on an evergreen chemistry tool (2013) Molecules, 18, p. 12264; Gupta, T, Patra, A, Dhar, KS, Nethaji, M, Chakravarty, AR, Synthesis, Characterization and Antiamoebic Activity of Benzimidazole Derivatives and Their Vanadium and Molybdenum Complexes (2005) J Chem Sci, 117, pp. 12-18; Pal, A, Biswas, B, Mondal, S, Lin, C, Ghosh, R, Copper (II) complexes with neutral Schiff bases: Syntheses, crystal structures and DNA interactions (2012), 31, pp. 671-675. , Pergamon; Ma, A, Mh, K, Smm, M, Mth, T, Ma, K, Coordination chemistry and bioactivity of ni2+, cu2+, and Zn2+ complexes containing a bidentate ns ligand, β-n-henyldithiocarbazic acid, and the crystal structure of β-hydroxy-β-phenylmethylene-α-phenylimine (1988) Indian J Chem, 27, pp. 1064-1071. , M N, and; Naik, KHK, Naik, N, World Journal of Pharmaceutical research N / S / O FUNCTIONALIZED LIGANDS AND THEIR METAL COMPLEXES : SYNTHESIS (2014) CHARACTERIZATION AND BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITIES World J Pharm Res, 3, pp. 2054-2069; Rey, NA, Neves, A, Bortoluzzi, AJ, Pich, CT, Terenzi, H, Catalytic promiscuity in biomimetic systems: Catecholase-like activity, phosphatase-like activity, and hydrolytic DNA cleavage promoted by a new dicopper(II) hydroxo-bridged complex (2007) Inorg Chem, 46, pp. 348-350; Alaghaz, A-NM, El-Sayed, BA, El-Henawy, AA, Ammar, RA, Synthesis, spectroscopic characterization, potentiometric studies, cytotoxic studies and molecular docking studies of DNA binding of transition metal complexes with 1, 1 (2015) J Mol, 1035, pp. 83-93; Kursunlu, A, Güler, E, Sevgi, F, Ozkalp, B, Synthesis, spectroscopic characterization and antimicrobial studies of Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes with Schiff bases derived from 5-bromo-salicylaldehyde (2013) J Mol Struct, 1048, pp. 476-481; Kumar, G, Devi, S, Johari, R, Kumar, D, Synthesis, spectral characterization and antimicrobial evaluation of Schiff base Cr (III), Mn (III) and Fe (III) macrocyclic complexes (2012) Eur J Med Chem, 52, pp. 269-274; Güngör, Ö, Gürkan, P, Synthesis and characterization of higher amino acid Schiff bases, as monosodium salts and neutral forms.

Lead-based perovskites (CH3NH3PbX3, X=Cl, I, Br) solar cells have recently achieved high efficiency of ∼19.3 percent, well exceeding most thin-film and organic solar cells' efficiencies. The presence of lead, toxic material in these solar cells, therefore poses serious challenges to our health and the environment. 'Tin' is nontoxic and stands as a replacement to 'lead' for commercial purposes. in halide based Perovskites possess a potential for higher quantum efficiency because of their enhanced light absorption capability due to the wide-ranging absorption spectrum in the visible region with a comparatively lower band gap of 1.3 eV than lead-based Perovskites. In this work, we have modeled a tin-based perovskite simulation model with FTO Glass / ZnO / CH3NH3SnI3 / Cu2O / Pt. novel architecture and analyzed using the SCAPS-1D, which is well suited for studying photovoltaic architecture. Use this software method and we analyzed the thickness, fault density, and operating temperature of the model by simulating under various conditions. With the optimize the thickness to be (0.03 μm) corresponding best efficiency among another thickness of perovskites, and other layers, the defect density of absorber layer (1017 cm-3 ) the encouraging result of maximum power conversion efficiency(PCE) reached to 9.27%, the short-circuit current density(Jsc) is 46.569 mA/cm2, and fill factor(FF) is 31.17% and open-circuit voltage(Voc) is 0.637 V is calculated. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Gao, P., Grätzela, M., Nazeeruddin, M.

The mechanism of this study is utilized the Bilayer (BL) MSe2 and MS2 to delivery β-lapachone (β-lap) anticancer drug by putting this molecule up on the slabs. Density Functional Theory (DFT) method is applied in the Quantum espresso package to compute various electronic properties. Results demonstrated that the pristine BL MSe2 and MS2 have a semiconductor behavior with indirect electronic band gaps. The complex structures (MSe2/β-lap and MS2/β-lap) have different electronic properties. So, there is a very small electronic band gap with direct transition at the K point for MSe2/ β-lap structure and at K-Γ region for WSe2/β-lap structure. For MoS2/β-lap and WS2/β-lap structures, the electronic band gap also reduced with indirect transition. For the stability of the complex structures, our finding revealed that all these structures became more stable and lower reactive with this anticancer drug due to the total energy is increased compared to the pristine cases. The chemical hardness of the complex structures is a small, which led to the smaller excitation energy required to transfer electrons. Moreover, they have higher ability to transfer electrons. There are smaller separation distance between the valence and conduction bands due to these complex structures have smaller value of the chemical softness. There are strong interaction between BL (MSe2 and MS2) and β-lap anticancer drug because of they have larger (absolute value) of the chemical potential and lower value of electrophilicity. Then, these results stimulate and encourage the experimental researchers to design these new complex structures to deliver β-lap anticancer drug. © 2020 Elsevier B.V.Adsorption energies; Bilayer MSe2 and MS2; DFT; Electronic band gap; Total energy; β-lapachone anticancer drugThe authors would like to thank the Iraqi ministry of higher education and scientific research for its care of scientific researchers through the Iraqi virtual science library (IVSL).

Based on this factor, this paper reports the surface morphology, structure and corrosion resistive traits of some multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) coated porous Ti-30 at.%-Ta shape memory alloys (hereafter coded as MWCNT-TTSMAs). The electrophoretic deposition (EPD) technique at various applied voltages was used to coat these alloys with MWCNTs. The structures and morphologies of the prepared samples were characterized at room temperature using the X-ray Diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), Raman spectroscopy, Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) and Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) measurements. In addition, the corrosion resistance of the coated alloys was assessed via electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) in the simulated body fluid (SBF) solution. The thickness (increased from 10.05 to 25.93 μm), surface roughness (increased from 1.38 to 1.95 μm) and homogeneity of the coating was significantly affected by the increase in the applied voltages (0 to 50 V). The corrosion rate of the optimum coated specimens was 10 fold lower (0.0966 mm/year) compared to the uncoated one (0.9403 mm/year). The hydrophilic nature of the proposed MWCNT-TTSMAs affirmed their osseointegration potential to support the cell attachments. The mean water contact angle (WCA) of the coated samples indicated a hydrophilic surface with a value of 22° ± 6 compared to the uncoated sample that exhibited a hydrophobic surface with the WCA value of 96°. Thus, the surface of the MWCNTs tends to be hydrophilic, resulting in an improved surface wettability. Antibacterial activity test exhibited that TTSMAs presented minimal inhibition area toward Escherichia coli (E. coli), in contrast, using the MWCNT has shown an improvement in antibacterial performance. © 2020 Elsevier B.V.Corrosion resistance; Morphology; MWCNT-TTSMAs; MWCNTs; Structure; WettabilityAtomic force microscopy; Biocompatibility; Body fluids; Contact angle; Corrosion rate; Corrosion resistance; Corrosion resistant alloys; Corrosive effects; Electrochemical corrosion; Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy; Electrophoresis; Energy dispersive spectroscopy; Escherichia coli; Hydrophilicity; Hydrophobicity; Morphology; Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCN); Muscle; Nanotubes; Scanning electron microscopy; Shape-memory alloy; Surface chemistry; Surface morphology; Surface roughness; Tantalum alloys; Tissue regeneration; Transmission electron microscopy; Anti-bacterial activity; Anti-bacterial performance; Biocompatible scaffolds; Electrodeposition voltage; Electrophoretic deposition techniques; Energy dispersive spectroscopies (EDS); Escherichia coli (E. coli); Water contact angle (WCA); Corrosion resistant coatings5F023; 04G38; Ministry of Higher Education, Malaysia, MOHE; Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, UTMThe authors appreciated the technical and financial support from the Ministry of Education Malaysia (MOE), Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) and School of Mechanical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering through Grants: FRGS vot 5F023 , UTM-TDR vot 06G66 and UTM-HIR vot 04G38 .Liu, X., Chu, P.K., Ding, C., Surface modification of titanium, titanium alloys, and related materials for biomedical applications (2004) Materials Science and Engineering: R: Reports, 47, pp. 49-121; Pilliar, R.M., Porous-surfaced metallic implants for orthopedic applications (1987) J.

This android program will also act as a guide to the resident pharmacies. Often, the doctor must know if the patients are taking their medications as recommended. These data will aid in improving patient health issues. The aim is to design, implement and evaluate a mobile app that can assist seniors in managing their daily home lives. Trying to convince them to take their medication, assessing their heart rates, and informing them to move and monitor their movements Also, help doctors track their patient's health data by sending them daily patient heart rate data. Research on whether approval is received from a patient. The programming languages, such as Java programming are used to build a powerful application for our province. This program lets residents and travelers scan and book a doctor's appointment online and save time and energy The Eclipse was used for developing Doctor Application and employed the SQLite as the database to save the information for the Doctor and the users. The application is developed by the guidelines and the newest trends (Material Design and the latest frameworks). Besides the final application, the output of the paper consists of a prototype, too. The paper begins with a theoretical introduction to the User-centered design and Android related topics. After that, the development (analysis, design, implementation, and testing) is described. An emphasis is placed on usability testing, which has shown several flaws in the implementation. © 2020 IEEE.Android application; Mobile; SQLite; User ExperienceApplication programs; Computer programming; Heart; User centered design; Android applications; Design and implementations; Health data; Java programming; Material designs; Patient health; Research papers; Usability testing; Android (operating system)Divall, P., Camosso-Stefinovic, J., Baker, R., The use of personal digital assistants in clinical decision making by health care professionals: A systematic review (2013) Health Informatics Journal, 19 (1), pp. 16-28; Kiser, K., 25 ways to use your smartphone. physicians share their favorite uses and apps (2014) Minn Med, 94 (4), pp. 22-29; O'Neill, K.M., Applying surgical apps: Smartphone and tablet apps prove useful in clinical practice (2013) Bull Am Coll Surg, 98 (11), pp. 10-18; Manoharan, S., Ponraj, N., Precision improvement and delay reduction in surgical telerobot ics (2019) Journal of Artificial Intelligence, 1 (1), pp. 28-36; Free, C., Phillips, G., Felix, L., Galli, L., Patel, V., Edwards, P., The effectiveness of m-health technologies for improving health and health services: A systematic review protocol (2010) BMC Res.

They become dominant tools for implementing different types of PWM due to the flexibility they provide compared to other Digital Signal Processors (DSPs). Different PWMs have been implemented for single and three phase circuits such as Digital PWM (DPWM), Sinusoidal PWM (SPWM), Space Vector (SVPWM), carrier phase shifted SPWM (CPS-SPWM), Third Harmonic Injection Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation (THISPWM) using FPGA boards. This paper presents a systematic review for the implemented PWM controllers based on FPGA. It describes in detail their types, architectures, and intended applications they used for. It also addresses the main contributions, advantages, and disadvantages of different research paper in this area. Current limitations and future development have been drawn based on highlighting the implemented and unimplemented PWM based on FPGA. © 2020 IEEE.CPS-PWM; DPWM; FPGA; PWM; SPWM; SVPWM; THISPWMDigital signal processors; Field programmable gate arrays (FPGA); Mobile telecommunication systems; Vector spaces; Voltage control; Carrier phase-shifted SPWM; Current limitation; Literature reviews; Pulse width modulation controllers; Research papers; Sinusoidal pulse width modulation; Systematic Review; Three phase circuits; Pulse width modulationVilathgamuwa, M., Duggal, B.R., Kok, J.Y., Kang, B.H., FPGA-based single-phase PWM rectifiers with high power factor (1998) Pedes 1998-1998 Int.

Twenty-five cases of flat foot patient who had lumbar disc prolapse were reported for 5 years (2003-2008). The radiological finding particularly MRI of lumbosacral spine and histopathological examination were discussed and analyzed. All patients were treated surgically by total removal of the lumbar disc prolapse of calcified disc which were reduced by tapping in site. This study demonstrates the relationship between the flat foot deformity as a predisposing factor which lead to precipitate the lumbar disc prolapse which occurs mainly at levels of L3/ L4. © 2020 EManuscript Technologies.

However, the complex matrix structure of lignocellulosic materials complicates conversion processes, such as enzymatic hydrolysis. Therefore, an efficient pretreatment process is required to disrupt the plant cell wall structure and maximize the recovery of valuable soluble components from lignocellulosic biomass during hydrolysis. In addition, an effective pretreatment method should use the minimum necessary amounts of energy and chemicals to minimize the cost of the end product. Further, it should reduce the formation of inhibitory compounds that affect enzymes and microorganisms during hydrolysis and fermentation, and it should be applicable to a wide variety of feedstocks. The research presented in this review has highlighted the pros and cons of the current technologies employed in pretreatment processes. Further study should be done to optimize and improve these technologies to enhance the efficiency of the production of biofuels and other valuable components. © **.

However, under circumstances of leaking hydrocarbon products into expansive grounds, the perspective of using such technique in identifying the degree of contamination is still obscure and needs more investigation. In this research, six identical resistivity boxes are self-instrumented in the laboratory to test samples of different clay-bentonite mixtures upon oil contamination. The samples are tested under various control conditions of densification and water content. Each soil mixture is artificially contaminated with crude oil at a certain percentage ranging from 0% to 25% of its dry mass. The outcomes show that electrical resistivity increases with the addition of oil, and that is highly noticed for the samples characterized by high swelling potential. Also, increasing the dry unit weight of expansive polluted samples contributes to raising the resistivity measurements. However, adding more water to the contaminated samples causes a noticeable reduction of the resistivity measurements. The obtained results could be used as a guide for use in soil remediation concerning polluted ground. Thus, the study contributes to producing a reliable alternative to using costly, time and effort consuming conventional tests. © Alpha Publishers.

The density matrix theory is used to write the equation of motion and an orthogonalized plane wave is used between WL-QD states. The results show that the DQD system exhibit NRI ordinarily until with pump and probe signals, only, due to the manipulation between states. A high NRI corresponding to neglected absorption is obtained under applied electric fields between QD-QD, the conduction (CB) and valence bands (VB) WL-QD fields. It is shown that the main requirement in increasing NRI is the high electric gain connected with a low magnetic one. This can be obtained under five applied electric fields in addition to a high VB WL-QD electric field. Neglecting WL reduces NRI by ~ 16 times. In single QD, the NRI is very small compared with DQD. © 2020, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.Double quantum dot; Negative refractive index; Wetting layer-quantum dot transitionElectric fields; Equations of motion; Nanocrystals; Probes; Refraction; Refractive index; Density matrix theory; Double quantum dots; Equation of motion; Negative refractions; Negative refractive index; Plane wave; Pump-and-probe; Wetting layer; Semiconductor quantum dotsAbdullah, M., Noori, F.T.M., Al-Khurasan, A.H., Terahertz emission in ladder plus Y-configurations in double quantum dot structure (2015) Appl Opt, 16, pp. 5186-5192; Al-Ameri, H.H., Abdullah, M., Al-Khursan, A.H., Entanglement in ladder-plus-Y-double quantum dot structure via entropy (2019) Appl Opt, 58, pp. 369-382; Al-Husseini, H., Al-Khursan, A.H., Al-Dabagh, S.Y., III-N QD Lasers (2009) Open Nanosci J, 3, pp. 1-11; Al-Khursan, A.H., Al-Khakani, M.K., Al-Mossawi, K.H., Third-order non-linear susceptibility in a three-level QD system (2009) Photonics Nanostructures Fundam Appl, 7, pp. 153-160; Al-Khursan, A.H., Ghalib, B.A., Al-Obaidi, S.J., A numerical simulation of optical feedback on a quantum dot lasers (2012) Semiconductors, 46, pp. 224-230; Al-Nashy, B., Abdullah, M., Al-Shatravi, A.G., Al-Khursan, A.H., Lasing without population inversion in the four-level Y-type configuration in double quantum dot system (2018) Pramana J Phys, 91, p. 74; Al-Nashy, B., Amin, S.M.M., Al-Khursan, A.H., Kerr effect in Y- configuration double quantum dot system (2014) J.

This method allows us to fine-tune the convergence region along with rate of convergence of the obtained series solution by allowing the auxiliary parameters n and ħ to vary. The obtained solution by the proposed method is presented in a refined convergent series form. The numerical results show that only few terms are sufficient to obtain an approximate solution which is accurate, efficient, and reliable. Furthermore, the graphical depictions of the obtained approximate solution of the system are presented. © 2020 International Association for Mathematics and Computers in Simulation (IMACS)Laplace transform; New modified coupled Korteweg–de Vries system; q-homotopy analysis methodLaplace transforms; Approximate solution; Auxiliary parameters; Convergence region; Homotopy analysis methods; Homotopy analysis transform methods; Laplace transform method; Numerical solution; Rate of convergence; Numerical methodsAkinyemi, L., q-Homotopy analysis method for solving the seventh-order time-fractional Lax's Korteweg–de Vries and Sawada–Kotera equations (2019) Comput.

Also electrostatic potential surfaces (HOMO, SOMO and LUMO), infrared spectra, shell system orbitals and point group symmetries were originated with the same basis sets. Calculations of individual atoms, dipole moment in Debye, electronegativity, electrophilicity, hardness and softness have been also achieved. The nanocluster (C4H2N2)3-C has anti- ferromagnetic properties, one can say it stands for open shell system. Addition the atoms (phosphorus, aluminum, arsenic, boron, carbon and indium to (C4H2N2)3 nanocluster weaken the value of dipole moment. Electronegativity magnitudes demonstrate that (C4H2N2)3 behave as a donor in (C4H2N2)3-P, (C4H2N2)3-As, (C4H2N2)3-C, but it has an acceptor behavior in (C4H2N2)3-Al, (C4H2N2)3-B, (C4H2N2)3-In. Aluminum has hardness (0.73589445 eV), while (C4H2N2)3 has hardness (1.87626555 eV), therefore in the compound (C4H2N2)3-Al, aluminum consider as soft base, but (C4H2N2)3 behaves like a hard acid. © 2020 Author(s).Robert, J., Acritical note on density functional theory studies on rare-gas dimmers Journal of Chemical Physics., 116 (22), pp. 9620-9623. , 2002; Grimme, Stefan, Semiemperical hyprid density functional with perturbative second order correlation (2006) Journal of Chemical Physics., 124 (3); Kittel, C., (1987) Quantum Theory of Solids, , John Wiley and Sons, New York; Cramer, C.J., (2004) Theories and Models, , Essentials of Computational Chemistry, 2nd ed., John Wiley & Sons Ltd., The Atrium, Southern Gate, Chichester, England; Rogers, D.W., (2003) Computational Chemistry Using the PC, , 3rd ed., John Wiley & Sons, Inc., Hoboken, New Jersey; Anandakumar, H., Umamaheswari, K., Supervised machine learning techniques in cognitive radio networks during cooperative spectrum handovers (2017) Cluster Computing, 20 (2), pp. 1505-1515. , Mar.; Zimmerli, Urs, Parrinello, Michele, Koumoutsakos, Petros, Dispersion corrections to density functionals for water aromatic interactions (2004) Journal of Chemical Physics, 120 (6), pp. 2693-2699; Brown, F.C., (1967) The Physics of Solids, , New York, W.

These properties depend critically on a number and type of impurity are founded in the ribbon (the width and the nature of the ribbon edge are constants). Finally, the calculation has involved optical properties of all paradigms such as geometrical structure, HOMO, LUMO, total energy, Fermi level energy, binding energy, work function, polarizability and hyperpolarizability respectively of each the structures studied. Herein, the both 8Al-GNR and 8P-GNR are the highest reactivity structures among all specimens (viz 1046.008 and 1035.1623 a.u) respectively. The results elucidate that the first hyperpolarizabilities of GNRs paradigms before and after doped were 0.0354 esu and 2855.87 esu, respectively. The results bring to light that the effect of contaminations is to greatly increase the hyperpolarizability value. The high values of polarizability and hyperpolarizability exhibit that the paradigms have very useful linear and nonlinear optical implementation as well as, the computation has included of the values of wavelength of maximum emission, vertical excited of energy, oscillator strength, optical energy gap, and cases of major electronic transition, where each studied paradigms were simulated using TD-DFT with B3LYP/6-31G (d, p). Interestingly, the optical band gap was evaluated of pristine GNRs and found equal to 0.6256 eV. Whereas, the value of doping in GNR can be noted that the band gaps are sometimes shrinks and other times expands. These values are determined between (0.1018 eV to 1.276 eV) for paradigms 2Al-GNR and 4P-GNR respectively. Finally, the band gaps cover a wide range of values and thus allows it to be used widespread in optical and electronic applications. © 2020 Author(s).Aliofkhazraei, M., Milne, N.A.W.I., Graphene Science Handbook Electrical and Optical Properties (2016) By Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.; Moghaddam, N.S., Ahmadi, M.T., Rahmani, M., Aziziah, N., Monolayer Graphene Nanoribbon p-n Junction (2011) IEEE; Bodenmann, A.K., Macdonald, A.H., Graphene: Exploring carbon flatland (2007) Physics Today, 60 (8), pp. 35-41. , Aug.; Sahoo, S., Dutta, A.K., Graphene: A New Star in Material Science (2010) Emerging Science., 2 (2), p. 16; Banerjee, D., Sahoo, S., Energy band nonparabolicity and density of states of graphene (2013) NSNTAIJ, Vol., 7 (6); Bryan, S.E., Structural and Electrical Properties of Epitaxial Graphene Nanoribbons (2013) Georgia Institute of Technology A Dissertation Ph.D., , May; Ruda, H.E., (2013) "widegap II-VI Compounds for Opto-electronic Applications "springer Science & Business Media, 1; Okada, S., Energetics of nanoscale graphene ribbons: Edge geometries and electronic structures (2008) Phys.

These colors comprise of electron-benefactor (quercetin) and electron-acceptor/securing (cyanoacrylic) associated by the n-conjugated linker as an electron spacer. By utilizing the thickness useful hypothesis (DFT) and time-subordinate DFT (TD-DFT) techniques with B3LYP utilitarian and 6-31G(d,p) premise set to examine some natural atoms by considering the retention range, the electronic states change, electronical properties, and the scope of the ingestion range. The improvement of the quercetin color is finished by the diverse linker expansion and same electron-acceptor where the assimilation gets higher than that of the first color and furthermore the vitality progress becomes lower in the DSSCs that utilization TiO-2 as a gatherer charge. Was concentrate additionally the impact of Ti(OH)4 on these colors.The vitality holes of these planned colors (inside 2.25-3.35 eV) are littler than that of quercetin color. Our outcomes are valuable for a superior comprehension of the structure rule of quercetin based natural colors for future DSSDs. © 2020 Author(s).We thank profs.

This study presents a systematic review the available analytical studies that studied the problem of interference of shallow foundations on different types of soil. This review has shown an increase in the soil bearing capacity and settlement with decrease of distance between adjacent foundations rested on different types of soil. Some of these studies showed the occurrence of the tiltas a result of the interference of the foundations based on clay soil. © 2020 Author(s).Terzaghi, K., (1943) Theoretical Soil Mechanics, , John Wiley and Son, New Yourk and London.; Bowles, J.E., (1997) Foundation Analysis and Design; Roy, S.S., Deb, K., Interference effect of closely spaced footings resting on granular fill over soft clay (2019) Int.

Simulation results showed that the modes characteristics, such as: the dispersion relations, the corresponding effective refractive index and the corresponding confinement factor for each case, change significantly with change the graded order. As long as the dispersion relations change with the graded orders, this means that the properties of the optical fiber will change dramatically. © 2020 Author(s).Hunsperger, R.G., Optical Waveguide Modes (2009) Integrated Optics, pp. 17-31; Okamoto, K., (2006) Fundamentals of Optical Waveguides ", 2nd Edition, , Academic press is an imprint of Elsevier; Yabre, G., Comprehensive theory of dispersion in graded-index optical fibers (2000) J.

Maintenance works should be conducted periodically and without delays; otherwise, the needed fund may be increased swiftly. The essential need for reviewing, assessing and maintaining roads requires continuous provision of fund. As a result, applying new alternative management system that ensure non-stopping fund is a necessity. The private sector can effectively involve in financing roads projects in direct investment or in partnership with the public sector. In this research, the Basra-Nasiriya expressway highway was evaluated to assess its current status in terms of road condition, signs, furnishing, existing services and maintenance procedures. The data included in this study was obtained from two resources; the first is primary from conducting two questionnaire-based surveys to collect opinions and knowledge from road users and experts. Field inspection survey was also performed.The experts indicated that the lowest acceptable level is 3.5, thus the road is close to reaching a level that beyond it a maintenance should be performed. Since the main problem is to find an effective management system that allows the provision of the necessary funds and hence ensure continuous maintenance, a toll road system has been proposed to collect fees from road users. Finally, this system was found to be acceptable at 87% of the surveyed sample. It was also confirmed that the legal basis for applying this system is available in Iraqi law and its prevailing legislations. © 2020 Author(s).(2018) A Policy on Geometric Design of Highways and Streets 7th Edition.

They contemplate two nodes at the same level strategically optimising their decisions over a finite set of strategies. Specifically, they consider two strategies are available to each node. Nodes can choose to transmit to keep the network updated, but at the risk of not sensing during the transmission time and the potential of sending repeated information if other nodes have already transmitted that information. Nodes can choose to sense the environment to detect new events, but this strategy leaves the network with outdated information if all nodes adopt it. As a result, nodes have to strategically make their decisions depending on the nodes' parameters, the importance of information, and the locations of the head nodes. They tackle this decision-making problem using two game theoretic models: A non-cooperative two-player game model and a potential game model. They derive the Nash equilibria (NE) and highlight their existence conditions. Finally, they use learning algorithms that use local information at each node to reach the NE. These algorithms are the fictitious play (FP) algorithm and a modified FP that is inspired by the cumulative proportional reinforcement algorithm. © 2020 The Institution of Engineering and Technology.Decision making; Game theory; Learning algorithms; Sensor nodes; Decision-making problem; Existence conditions; Game theoretical models; Game-theoretic model; Information transmission; Local information; Outdated information; Reinforcement algorithms; Data communication systemsSohraby, K., Minoli, D., Znati, T., (2007) Wireless sensor networks: Technology, protocols, and applications, , (John Wiley & Sons, Hoboken, New Jersey, USA, 1st edn); Dargie, W., Poellabauer, C., (2010) Fundamentals of wireless sensor networks: Theory and practice, , (John Wiley & Sons, West Sussex, UK, 1st edn); Mehak, Khandnor, 'Structure and structure-free data aggregation protocols in wireless sensor networks-a review' (2017) Proc.

Methods: twenty-four of female rats (Rattus norvegicus) were utilized for this purpose. Animals were further distributed in four groups having six rats in each group. Diabetes was induced by injected intraperitoneally with alloxan at single dose 125mg/kg body weight, group (1) (control group): animals of this group were treated only with distill water for 15 days, group (2) (diabetic group): animals of this group were injected intraperitoneally with alloxan at single dose 125mg/kg body weight, group (3) (taurine group): a 100 mg/kg body weight dose of taurine was intraperitoneally introduced for fifteen days, the group (4) (DM+taurine group): animals of this group intraperitoneally injected a single dose of (125mg/kg body weight) alloxan and after 7 days they were injected with taurine at a dose (100mg/kg body weight) for 15 days. Results: a significant upsurge (P≤0.05) was indicated in diabetic rats in the AST, ALT urea and creatinine’s levels. In addition, taurine supplementation caused a significant decrease in the levels of ALT, AST, urea and creatinine. Conclusions: taurine could have potential as a pharmaceutical drug for diabetes mellitus (DM). © RJPT All right reserved.Diabetes; Kidney; Liver; Rats; Taurinealanine aminotransferase; alloxan; aspartate aminotransferase; creatinine; taurine; urea; alanine aminotransferase blood level; alloxan-induced diabetes mellitus; animal experiment; animal model; antidiabetic activity; Article; aspartate aminotransferase level; controlled study; creatinine blood level; female; kidney function; liver function; nonhuman; rat; urea blood levelalanine aminotransferase, 9000-86-6, 9014-30-6; alloxan, 3237-50-1, 50-71-5; aspartate aminotransferase, 9000-97-9; creatinine, 19230-81-0, 60-27-5; taurine, 107-35-7; urea, 57-13-6Alberta Heritage Foundation for Medical Research, AHFMR; Medical Research Council Canada, MRCResearch on regulatory proteins in the author's laboratory is presently sponsored by a grant from the Medical Research Council of Canada.

Our investigation also revealed that studies scrutinizing iron deficiency anemia (IDA) are also rare all around the world. The aim of this research was to determine metal concentrations and physiological parameters in SCA patients and compare them with IDA patients. In this study, 31 SCA patients, 30 IDA patients, and 28 healthy people (male and female) were recruited from the Center of Genetic Diseases, Thi-Qar, Iraq (age range: 2-45 years). The blood types of all participants were recorded from their profiles. 5ml blood was collected from both patient and healthy groups to determine reticulum cells by slide method; other hematology tests were performed by hematology analyzer. The rest was centrifuged to obtain the serum used to determine ferritin level by minividas, vitamin D by cobas, and metals including copper, zinc, magnesium, and selenium by flame atomic absorption spectrophotometer. The age of IDA group was significantly higher than that of SCA group, while no significant difference was found in the gender of the two groups. In both groups, the highest frequency was found in the O blood type and the lowest in the B blood type. The results of estimated parameters showed that both anemia patients have significantly lower RBC count, Hb level, vitamin D level, and PCV% than those in control. However, ferritin level, reticular cells %, and WBC count were significantly higher in the SCA, and significantly lower in IDA, compared to the control. Copper and selenium levels were significantly higher, while zinc and magnesium levels were significantly lower in both patient groups compared to control. Accordingly, regular laboratory examination of these elements is inevitable. © RJPT All right reserved.Ferritin; Iron deficiency anemia; Metals; Reticular cell; Sickle cell anemiacalcium; copper; erythropoietin; ferritin; hemoglobin; hemoglobin variant; magnesium; selenium; trace element; vitamin D; zinc; adolescent; adult; Article; blood group; child; comparative study; controlled study; erythrocyte count; female; ferritin blood level; flame atomic absorption spectrometry; hematocrit; human; immunoassay; iron absorption; iron deficiency anemia; leukocyte count; major clinical study; male; pathophysiology; prevalence; reticulum cell; sickle cell anemiacalcium, 7440-70-2, 14092-94-5; copper, 15158-11-9, 7440-50-8; erythropoietin, 11096-26-7; ferritin, 9007-73-2; hemoglobin, 9008-02-0; magnesium, 7439-95-4; selenium, 7782-49-2; zinc, 7440-66-6, 14378-32-6AR-6400, Medical Technology, China; Cobas e 411Medical Technology, China; Hoffmann La Roche, Germany; Merieux, FranceI̕ would like to thank the Center of Genetic Diseases, Thi-Qar, Iraq and department of biology, college of science, to University of Thi-Qar, Iraq as they supported and helped me.Kassebaum, N.J., Jasrasaria, R., Naghavi, M., Wulf, S.K., Johns, N., Lozano, R., A systematic analysis of global anemia burden from 1990 to 2010.

The objective of this study was to examine the preventive effect of different concentrations of Propylparaben (PP) for control of fungal populations and aflatoxin b1 (AFB1) contamination of stored chilli powder in both artificially and naturally contaminations. These treatments were examined at two different water activity (aw) levels (0.90 and 0.95 aw) in stored chilli powder at 30oC for 20 days. The total populations of A. flavus isolated from both artificially and naturally contamination of stored chilli powder at 30oC were significantly reduced by using PP treatments espe-cially, with 2000 ppm. In additions, the AFB1 production was reduced when increased PP concentration compared to the untreated control. In conclusion, the economic and health impacts related to Aspergillus and AFB1 contamination could be minimised by adding PP as a food-grade preservative to stored chilli powder, Results show From a human health perspective, the use of PP is allowed as a food preservative by the (IARC) and (WHO). It must use according to legislation doses (0.1%) introduced by the law of (GRAS) regulations. © 2020 International Journal of Research in Pharmaceutical Sciences.

The prospective study from patients who were admitted to the neurosurgical department of the AL-Hussain teaching hospital & Al-saddy private hospital. The clinical assessment brain CT scan all patient were treated surgically. We found Brain hydatid diseases tends to occur in children and young adult and distribution of the middle cerebral artery and tend to be single slow growing with slight or no inflammatory reaction or edema. Brain hydatid cyst are uncommon but benign one should suspect them. Particularly in our area where the disease in endemic and common in other part of the body liver, lung.

Such thing lead to slight or serious injuries to these employees. In addition, it may cause physical injury and disability, low performance at job, and finally an uncomfortable working setting for the staff. Materials and methods: A descriptive study was applied to assess the prevalence of WPV and related factors. This study was conducted at the EDs of four teaching hospitals in Al-Nasiriyah city. Study sample was drawn from emergency physicians, nurses, pharmacists, and laboratory technicians. Both genders staffs were included. Results: The results involved answers from 426 employee in the emergency department. The most reported form of violence in the staff in the past year in this research was emotional violence, which is reported by 78.5% of the sample, then physical abuse (14.3%) and sexual abuse at last (5.2%). Conclusion: This study exhibited many findings on a group of WPV cases, in addition to the features and issues related to exposure to violence. The findings undoubtedly prove the priority of considering this issue in Iraqi hospitals and the importance to develop urgent and appropriate interventions. © 2020, Institute of Medico-Legal Publications.

Researchers have investigated the proliferation activity of the adrenal cortex especially in the capsule and sub-capsular areas. To date, no evidence has been found associating TMEM121 protein with the proliferation activity of the adrenal cortex. Our previous study suggested the expression of TMEM121 in the adrenal sub-capsular was high and co-localized with the proliferation marker (Ki67). These findings suggest investigating the role of TMEM121 in the propagating cells. The full-length coding sequence of the TMEM121 was amplified using RT-PCR and cloned into pIRES2-EGFP vector. Human cancer cell line MDA was prepared and genetically modified by transfection with Tmem121 and sustained as stable cell lines expressing Tmem121 for a fortnight to investigate its effect on the proliferation activity of these cancer cells. The expression of TMEM121 was successfully forced into these cells and its expression was maintained. However, the expression of Tmem121 has no significant effect on the proliferation activity of these cancer cells. The proliferation pathways of MDA cancer cells showed an independent behavior regardless of the dramatic increase of Tmem121 after transfection. © 2020.

TNF-á are vital cytokines, it can make the gallbladder inflammation is more by it directly affected gallbladder epithelial cell absorptive function contribute to hastening gallstone formation. However, IL-4 protects gallstone production. A recent study was performed on patients with chronic cholecystitis (acalculous and calculus type) ten tissue samples of chronic acalculous cholecystitis and ninety-five tissue sample from calculus patient can be referred to the surgical clinic of Al-Husain General Hospital. Gallbladder tissue sample put in formalin then transport to the laboratory for examination the expression status of these cytokines in gallbladder tissue by IHC technique and modern spatial visualization technique. There is a significant statistical difference between calculus and a calculous cholecystitis with TNF-á and IL-4 expression.

Objectives: To assess knowledge and attitude about sexual transmitted disease among women in reproductive age in Al-Nasiriyah governorate-Iraq. Methods: Cross sectional study design based on community was conducted in in Al-Nasiriyah governorate in Iraq on women at reproductive age. Data collected by predesigned and pretested instrument through face to face interview. Results: In general literates women were more aware about STDs compared to illiterates. A total of 180 women at reproductive age were recorded, of which 325(64%) regard blood transfusion as major method of STD transmission and 206(40%) Through the open wound of the genitals. 384 (68.3%) women told that vaginal discharge is common symptom, followed by Genital and mouth ulcers 194(34.5%). 310(61%) women regard diagnosis of STD done by blood test.396(78%) opined abortion common complication followed by 287(55%) infertility. 404(71%) opined that STDs can be prevented by abstinence from sex and 343(61%) it cannot be prevented. Conclusions: Based on the results of the study, women’s knowledge about sexual transmitted diseases that transmitted during sex is very low, so special programs must be provided for women that can increase knowledge of women and awareness of sexually transmitted diseases in Iraq and published on television and radio. As knowledge and awareness of diseases promote with education, special educational programs are also effective for education of women in Iraq about STD. © 2020, Institute of Medico-Legal Publications.

DNA extraction of the parasite was evaluated by using specific primer for E. histolytica and another for E. dispar (573bp and 390bp), respectively. The results of the diagnostic with PCR show distinguish of amoebiasis to 50 (55.5%) infected with pathogenic E. histolytica and 27(30%) infected with nonpathogenic E. dispar with mixture infection 13(14.4%). Also the high rate with using PCR test show in the age group 1-10 years with no significant between male and female. © 2020.

There are many types of contraceptives, some contain estrogen and the other contain progesterone, or combination of them in the same drug. This work was performed in a population of adult females to study the relationship between the chronic use of OCs with dyslipidemia and the threat of cardiac diseases. A total 163 volunteers were participated in this study, and, their aged between 21-42 years old. In addition, all women were free of heart disease, dyslipidemia and any hormonal disturbance according to their health records. They were categorized into three differnt groups, the control group included 52 unmarried women and does not use any OCs, group A: included 57 women took OCs (combination pill estrogen and progestin) for less than 6 months, and group B contained 54 women used OCs for more than one year. We meassued lipid profile, and blood indices of cardiovascular disease, like Creatine Kinase-MB (CK-MB), insulin, Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) albumin, leptin and HbA1c test. In addition, we determined the coronary risk index, atherogenic Coefficient, and an atherogenic index. Our results recorded a significant increase in total cholesterol, LDL, coronary risk index (TC/HDL), LDH and HbA1c in group2 compared to compared to control group. Furthermore, our data demonstrated no clear differences in Triglyceride, leptin hormone, TG, HDL, insulin, albumin and CK-MB in group2 compared to control. Moreover, the data indicated a significant elevation in the concentration of leptin hormone, LDH, HbA1c, TC, TG, LDL, coronary risk index, atherogenic Coefficient and Atherogenic index, and significant decline in HDL and albumin in group B compared with control group. Therefore, we concluded that oral contraceptive could deter the lipid profile status and some enzyme related to the cardiovascular system. These alterations convey a possible risk for the development of cardiac diseases. Routine screeing of lipid tests would be measured in women used OCs for long periods to avoid any potential risk of cardiac diseases. © 2020, Institute of Medico-Legal Publications.

Samples were collected for 12 months from 577 women with thyroid disorders (407 had hypothyroidism and 170 were suffering from hyperthyroidism). There were 192 women that were considered as a control group who were healthy and did not complain of any diseases. Some data, such as age, marital status and causes of infection for patients with thyroid disorder, were confirmed. TSH, T4, T3, total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), high density lipoprotein (HDL) and low density lipoprotein (LDL) were measured for all subjects. The study found that women whose ages are between 25–35 years and married women are more likely to have thyroid disorders than the total of the sample. It has been observed that the level of TSH and TG increase in women who suffer from hypothyroidism, but there is no difference in their level for women who suffer from hyperthyroidism in comparing with the control group. As for the hormone T4,T3 and fT4, their levels were high for hyperthyroidism group, but their level was lower in women with hypothyroidism. TC and LDL were more elevated in hypothyroidism and also high in hyperthyroidism group. While HDL level was more low in hypothyroidism, and it was also low in hyperthyroidism women when comparing its level with the control group. It was clear from the study that women between the ages of 25–35 years are more infected for non-hereditary reasons but rather disorders in their female hormones that negatively affect thyroid hormones. Imbalance of the lipid profile (Dyslipidemia) was also observed in patients with thyroid disorder, which could be one of the causes of atherosclerosis and coronary diseases. © 2020.

Genetic with environment factors account for the majority of population susceptibility to this disease. This study is carried out to evaluate some immunogenic and molecular parameters such cytokines in some Iraqi patients with (SARS-CoV2) and detect the association of immune status and severity of disease. The study included 100 patients with COVID 19. And 30 apparently healthy individuals (as control).When some cytokines (IL-1 alpha, GM-CSF, IL-8, IL-6 and IL-2 receptor) have been measured in the sera of the studied groups. All these cytokines have revealed a highly significant elevation when detected among SARS-CoV2 in comparison with healthy control group, except GM-CSF has showed a significant elevation in SARS-CoV2 patients only. This results goes to establish growth (cytokines storm) which its drive to understand the develop molecular immune pattern as key step is to speedily ramp up research related to the production of an effective vaccine for the SARS-CoV2 respiratory syndrome. © 2020 EManuscript Technologies.

Twelve Arabi ewes were used with an average weight of 45 kg, aged 6–12 months and were non-pregnant. Animals divided randomly into 3 groups (4/group), control group receive 2 ml of normal saline i.v. injection daily, the (k) group receive (4.4 mg/kg B.W. i.v) of ketoprofen daily, the (M) group receive (55.5 mg/kg B.W.i.v) of metamizole daily, all groups treated for 5 days. Five ml of blood taken from a jugular vein after the 5th day of the experiment and serum was isolate to estimate biochemical parameters, urine also collected onthe same days. The studied parameters were urine creatinine, (GFR), Serum (creatinine, urea, cholesterol, triglyceride, (HDL), Total Protein, Albumin, AST and ALT). The results after 5 days of the experiment were showed a significant (p≤ 0.05) increase in serum triglyceride in (K) group as compared with the control group and serum cholesterol in (K) group as compared to the (M)group. But, there was a significant (p≤ 0.05) decrease in urine creatinine, serum ALT concentrations when compared to the control group. Mitamisol (M) group showed a significant (p ≤ 0.05) increase in serum triglyceride and AST and significant (p≤ 0.05) decrease in GFR, serum (cholesterol and ALT), when compared with the control group. Long term treatment with Ketoprofen and metamizole cause some effect on liver functions when uses at a therapeutic level in Arabi ewes for 5 days or more but there was little influence on kidney function. © 2020.

While, roflumilast N-oxide is an active metabolite of roflumilast that rising the cyclic adenosine-3′, 5′-monophosphate by inhibiting PDE4. Thirty rabbits were divided into three groups, control group was received normal saline intra-muscularly and drived from water for eighteen hours before. Second group was received a single dose glycerol injected intra-muscularly after drived from water for eighteen hours .Third group was received roflumilast intraperitoneal daily for three days after received a single dose of glycerol . All animals were sacrificed after 72 hour, and then blood collected by cardiac puncture for evaluation the changes in the levels of renal function tests and histopathological study of rabbit’s kidneys tissues are evaluated evaluation and scoring the changes of tested agents. The numerical data are expressed as means ± standard error means and analyzed by using SPSS version 20. The results of the levels serum urea and creatinine found to be significantly reduced by roflumilast using ANOVA test. Besides, the histopathological changes showed ameliorative effects of roflumilast in compared to glycerol group. From this study, one could be concluded the protective effect of roflumilast in case of renal failure induction by glycerol. © 2020, Institute of Medico-Legal Publications.

According to their SCCmec types and associated epidemiological and virulence factors, they can be classified into hospital-acquired MRSA (HA-MRSA) and community-associated MRSA (CA-MRSA). Purpose: The objectives of the present was to study the diversity and distribution of SCCmec elements among MRSA isolates from outpatients and patients on admission into hospitals in at time of admission into hospitals. Methodology: The S. aureus clinical isolates were initially identified phenotypically using various biochemical tests and then this identification was confirmed by PCR using species-specific 16S rRNA primer pairs. Methicillin Resistant was determined using the disk diffusion method. All the identified isolates were subjected to mecA detection. Simplex PCR was optimized for all the major SCCmec types (I to V) and PCR products were sequenced to confirm our results. Results: Out of the 349 isolates, 75 (21.48%) were S. aureus. The antibiogram analysis of the isolated S. aureus strains indicated that these strains showed high resistance to oxacillin (93.33%), methicillin (90.66%) and 54 (72%) isolates possessed the mecA gene. The results showed that the predominate SCCmec type was type 1V 45% (34/75) followed by type I 6.6% (5/75) and 48% (36/75) carried multiple SCCmec types (type I and type IV). Types II, III and V were not detected. Conclusion: The existence of multiple SCCmec types in individual MRSA isolates rose difficulties in using SCCmec typing criterion. © 2020 Wolters Kluwer Medknow Publications.

Methods : 34of APL cases with multiple clinical and biological characteristics (age, sex, Presentation, APL type, Hb conc., WBC count, platelets count, % DIC presence, and promyelocytic percent) were studied, with adequate flow cytometry(FC) data, SSC, CD34, CD117, CD13, CD33, cMPO, HLADR, CD11b, CD64, CD2, CD56, CD35, CD36, CD58, C118, CD4, CD19, CD45, CD38, CD15, CD16 and CD79a of bone marrow aspirates, were analyzed for immunophenotypic pattern. Result: The patients were between 15 to 60 years old (the mean of age was 32 ±13.9). The male: female ratio was 14m: 20f (1:1.4) Immunophenotypic analysis revealed the majority (21 cases 61.76%) of cases represented classical (hyper granular) and the remaining were M3V pattern of APL. The clinical features ranged from, pallor and pallor/bleeding manifestations in (18%), till spleen and liver enlargement in 6% of cases. The hemoglobin levels ranged from 4 to 11.1 g/dl with a mean of 8.29 g/dl. The WBC count ranged from 0.5 to 56 x 109/l with a mean of 10.15 x 109/l. Platelet counts ranged from 1.9-87 x 109/l with a mean of 36.5 x 109/l. promyelocytic cell percentage ranged from 13 to 96% with mean of 71%. Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) was found in about 56% of cases ranged as 48% and 69% in classical and M3V disease pattern respectively. APL cells typically highly expressed hallmarks of APL: CD33 (~88%), CD13 (~85%), CD64 (~77%),CD 117(~76%) and dimly expressed associated AML markers such as HLA-DR, CD4, and CD19(~3%). In addition to all cases were negative for CD15, CD16, CD38, CD76a, and cTdT. Conclusion: Our results confirmed that phenotypic profiling is very important in the early diagnosis of such life-threatening disease. © 2020 Wolters Kluwer Medknow Publications.

In addition to overt infection, occult Hepatitis B infection exists in which a patient who is diagnosed seronegative for Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) shows positive HBV-DNA on using more accurate molecular methods. This study aims to determine the prevalence of overt and occult HBV infection among the HD patients who had attended Al-Nasiriyah dialysis centre during a two-month period. Materials and Methods: Serological qualitative detection of HBsAg by rapid test (strips), enzyme immunoassay (EIA, HBsAg) and molecular (real-time polymerase chain reaction (real-time PCR)) was conducted for quantitative detection of HBV in HD patients’ serum. Results: The prevalence of overt HBV infection among HD patients was 3.7%. The viral load of HBV positive patients was ranging from 5.85 × 101 to 2.16 × 106 copies/ml of serum with median (7.4 × 105 copies/ml). Occult Hepatitis B was not detected in any of the seronegative HD patients (0%). Overt infection was found more in males (80%) than females (20%) (P<0.05). Similarly, infection was found to be higher among patients who had blood transfusions (80%) than those who had not (20%) with statistical significant p<0.05. Although not statistically significant, the mean duration of HD was higher among HBV positive HD patients (17.6) than HBV negative HD patients (14.3). A dual infection of HBV and HCV was not detected in this study. Conclusion: Nosocomial transmissions at HD centres and blood transfusion are important risk factors. Besides serological screening, real-time PCR offers a safeguard against the spread of overt and occult HBV infection and determines the viral load of the positive patients. © 2020, Tehran University of Medical Sciences.

Two forms of sewage sludge were used, sun dried sewage sludge (DSS) and sewage sludge ash (SSA). SAA was produced by incineration of the DSS at 600°C for two hours. DSS and SAA were separately used as a partial replacement of cement in concrete mixes. The produced concrete mixes were experimentally tested via various mechanical and physical concrete testes such as compressive strength, workability, and water absorption. DSS and SSA were chemically characterized. Then, they were manually ground, sieved through sieve size of 150 μm, and added to the concrete mixes as a proportion of cement content using 5, 10, and 15% as cement replacement of cement content. 1% of a super plasticizer was added to the concrete mixes that prepared using two contents of cement 450 kg/m3and 550 kg/m3. The results showed that DSS chemically included 21.973% of SiO2 while SSA contained of 38.71% SiO2. The concrete mixes containing 5 and 10% of cement replacement by DSS showed slight increments in compressive strength compared to the concrete control at the final age of 28 days. The increments were 0.25, 1.58 % and 0.36, 2.02% for mixes of 450 kg/m3, and 550 kg/m3 of cement content, respectively. Meanwhile, the employment 10% of SSA appears higher increasing in compressive strength at the age of 28 days, by 8.05% and 8.90% for cement content of 450, and 550 kg/m3, respectively. Water absorption of DSS or SSA concrete samples also showed a decrease in water absorption percentage compared to control concrete samples. Therefore, recycling DSS and SSA could provide another route for cheap cement materials, and a potential alternative to landfill process. © School of Engineering, Taylor's UniversityCement replacement; Compressive strength; Concrete; Sewage sludge ashMokhtar, N.M., Ethaib, S., Omar, R., Effects of microwave absorbers on the products of microwave pyrolysis of oily sludge (2018) Journal of Engineering Science and Technology (JESTEC), 13 (10), pp. 3313-3330; Ethaib, S., Solid waste situation in Thi-Qar governorate (2019) IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, , 584012023; Ethaib, S., Erabee, I.K., Abdulsahib, A.A., Removal of methylene blue dye from synthetic wastewater using kenaf core and activated carbon (2018) International Journal of Engineering & Technology, 7 (4), pp. 909-913. , (19); Erabee, I.K., Ethaib, S., Treatment of contaminated landfill leachate using aged refuse biofilter medium (2018) Oriental Journal of Chemistry, 34 (3), pp. 1441-1450; Erabee, I.K., Ethaib, S., Performance of activated carbon adsorption in removing of organic pollutants from river water (2018) International Journal of Engineering & Technology, 7 (4.2), pp. 356-358; Ethaib, S., Omar, R., Kamal, S.M.M., Biak, D.R.A., Microwave-assisted pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass: A review (2015) Journal of Engineering Science and Technology (JESTEC), 2 (1), pp. 97-109; Lau, P.C., Teo, D.C.L., Mannan, M.A., Characteristics of lightweight aggregate produced from lime-treated sewage sludge and palm oil fuel ash (2017) Construction and Building Materials, 152, pp. 558-567; Shubbar, A.A., Jafer, H., Dulaimi, A., Hashim, K., Atherton, W., Sadique, M., The development of a low carbon binder produced from the ternary blending of cement, ground granulated blast furnace slag and high calcium fly ash: An experimental and statistical approach (2018) Construction and Building Materials, 187, pp. 1051-1060; Shubbar, A.A., Sadique, M., Shanbara, H.K., Hashim, K., The development of a new low carbon binder for construction as an alternative to cement (2020) Advances in Sustainable Construction Materials and Geotechnical Engineering, pp. 205-213. , Springer, Singapore; Ibrahim, M.H.W., Hamzah, A.F., Jamaluddin, N., Mangi, S.A., Ramadhansyah, P.J., Influence of bottom ash as a sand replacement material on durability of self-compacting concrete exposed to seawater (2020) Journal of Engineering Science and Technology (JESTEC), 15 (1), pp. 555-571; Imbabi, M.S., Carrigan, C., McKenna, S., Trends and developments in green cement and concrete technology (2012) International Journal of Sustainable Built Environment, 1 (2), pp. 194-216; Mikulčić, H., Klemeš, J.J., Vujanović, M., Urbaniec, K., Duić, N., Reducing greenhouse gasses emissions by fostering the deployment of alternative raw materials and energy sources in the cleaner cement manufacturing process (2016) Journal of Cleaner Production, 136, pp. 119-132; Hamood, A., Khatib, J.M., Williams, C.D., The effectiveness of using raw sewage sludge (RSS) as a water replacement in cement mortar mixes containing unprocessed fly ash (u-FA) (2017) Construction and Building Materials, 147, pp. 27-34; Ing, D.S., Chin, S.C., Guan, T.K., Suil, A., The use of sewage sludge ash (SSA) as partial replacement of cement in concrete (2016) ARPN Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, 11 (6), pp. 3771-3775; Mininni, G., Blanch, A.R., Lucena, F., Berselli, S., EU policy on sewage sludge utilization and perspectives on new approaches of sludge management (2015) Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 22 (10), pp. 7361-7374; Tantawy, M.A., El-Roudi, A.M., Abdalla, E.M., Abdelzaher, M.A., Evaluation of the pozzolanic activity of sewage sludge ash (2012) ISRN Chemical Engineering, 1, pp. 1-8; (1984) Portland Cement, , Iraqi Specification 5.

To get the random lasing, the samples were exposed to Picosecond laser. Our results show a gradual increase in the random lasing emission by increase in the concentrations and thus scattering mean free path until the threshold amount. The emission intensity was enhanced by enhancing the laser power due to an increase in scattering, which cannot make a close loop path in the gain medium to reach the coherence random lasing. Our results showed efficient emission intensity due to the absorption of Rhodamine B with Ag NPs in the pumping wavelength where it has been observed that the lasing threshold is reduced from 0.628 A (without scatterer) to 0.62 A at 9.2∗1017cm-3 Likewise, the lowest FWHM (full width at half maximum) for this concentration was 34 nm, while without concentration it was 37 nm, but the clear and important difference is that the first occurred at 72 A, while the second state at 80 A. © 2020, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.Picosecond laser; Random laser; Scattering mean free path; Silver nanoparticlesCoherent scattering; Picosecond lasers; Rhodamine B; Rhodium compounds; Silver nanoparticles; Efficient emission; Emission intensity; Laser power; Lasing threshold; Mean free path; Pumping wavelength; Random lasers; Random lasing; Pumping (laser)Biswas, S., Kumbhakar, P., Continuous wave random lasing in naturally occurring biocompatible pigments and reduction of lasing threshold using triangular silver nanostructures as scattering media (2017) Nanoscale, 9 (47), pp. 18812-18818; Cao, H., Lasing in random media (2009) Tutor.

A total of 100 fecal specimens (including 63 males and 37 females) are collected from infants and children under five years of age in Thi-Qar Province south of Iraq during Five Months (From November 2017 To March 2018). According to diarrhea suffered children which revealed that 45% are caused by Rotavirus, the frequency of male children patients with diarrhea caused by rotavirus was higher than their female. The samples are categorized into eight groups according to the age of the children: 1-5 months, 6-10 months, 11-15months, 16-20 months, 21-25 months, 26-30 months, 31-35 months, and 36-40 months. Age-specific frequency in children patients with diarrhea, caused by rotavirus is high in aged 11-15 months. According to results the percentage of infection with rotavirus show that 16 (35.6%) children are fed on Breast feeding, 22 (48.9%) children are fed on bottle feeding and 7 (15.6%) children are fed on mixed feeding. RT-qPCR is performed for the detection of Rotavirus based on the capsid gene. Also, RT-PCR technique is performed on some positive isolates in RT-qPCR method used for Rotavirus genotyping by using DNA sequencing analysis. In Rotavirus phylogenetic tree analysis, results show that the local Rotavirus isolates (IQ-C1) are closed related to NCBI-Blast Rotavirus (JQ069617.1) (EF472951.1) that related to (genotype G9P8-G9) with NCBI-BLAST Homology Sequence identify (99-100%) and submitted into NCBI-Genbank and provided accession numbers (JQ069617.1-EF472951.1). © 2020, Advanced Scientific Research.

Analysis methods including XRD, FE-SEM, EDX, UV–Vis diffusion reflectance spectrum, VSM and BET surface area were performed to characterize the prepared nanocomposites and the modified photoanode. Refinery wastewater effluent was used to study the SCPFC performance in term of maximum power density (Pmax) and the short circuit current density (Jsc). The ZnFe2O4@ZnO0.6S0.4 photoanode based SCPFC revealed stable and outstanding performance. The Pmax and Jsc were 11.8 μW/cm2 and 46.4 μA/cm2, respectively, which were higher than cell operated without organic substrates (2.9 μW/cm2 and 19.5 μA/cm2, respectively). The COD degradation tests (initial COD was 435 mg/l) exhibited high COD removal (82.4%) in the SCPFC process in 5 h, compared with that of photocatalytic degradation process (61.2%). © 2020 Elsevier B.V.COD removal; Photoanode; Photocatalytic fuel cell; Photoelectrocatalytic; Power generation; ZnFe2O4@ZnO0.6S0.4The authors are very grateful for the technical support provided by the Alnahrain Nanorentable Energy Research Center (ANERC), Al-Nahrain University, Baghdad, Iraq.

Aim: compare the topical Ivermectin combination with the permethrin 5% efficacy against permethrin 5% cream only as a scabies treatment. Materials and Methods: Interventional comparative study as a randomized controlled trial. Between April 2019 and April 2020, any patients with scabies who were older than 5 years of age and attending the Dermatology outpatient clinic, who visiting the outpatients of dermatology and venereology in Al-Hussein Teaching hospital-Thi-Qar province were assessed for enrolment in the study. Statistical and epidemiological analysis done by SPSS version 25, P value<0.05considersignificant. Results: The study including 373 scabies patients, according to type of treatment they devided into 2 group A: who take combination of oral Ivermectin and topical permethrin (189 patients) with mean age of 27.5 ±11.5years for male, 24.8 ±11.1 while for group B (Permethrin only) the mean age of 28. ±11.7years for male and 24.5 ±10.9years for female, where there was no significant difference between these groups regarding gender distribution according to their age and according to their duration of disease from the time diagnosis measured by days the P value for such difference was of >0.05, mean size of the of the lesion at different occasions of measure, the paired t-test, which proved that at all comparison stage there was significant statistical difference, where P values (0.001), correlation was nearly of medium positive correlations. Lesion categories in crossly matched different types of lesion according to the three different times of measure show very high significant statistical differences. Conclusion: Combined effect of both lines of treatment show significant reduction in the time of treatment and higher complete clearance rate of lesion with full recovery rate without considerable side effect. © 2020, Advanced Scientific Research.

To realize suitable and optimized adsorption of the four anticancer drug molecules (6-MP, GB, 5-FU and CP) on the ZnONS surface, we substituted various concentrations of Zn atoms with Ga impurities on the ZnONS surface. Then, we studied different electronic properties of the nGa-doped ZnONS and numerous drug molecules adsorbed with nGa-doped ZnONS in the vertical and horizontal directions via a DFT calculation. There are exacted interesting results. The behavior of ZnONS is converted from semiconducting to semimetal. That means the huge quantity of charges are carried in the system. Besides, n Ga-doped ZnONS become more stable and lower reactive due to the total energy is increased. The exchange-correlation and electrostatic energies are improved, excepted kinetic energy has opposite behavior. Due to we observed the structure becomes more stable with different concentrations of Ga impurities; we studied the above electronic properties of the drug molecules adsorbed with n Ga-doped ZnONS in the vertical and horizontal directions. We found out the electronic properties is not only depended on the type of the drug molecules, but also depended on the direction of the drug molecule. So, the electronic properties are very sensitive to the drug molecules in the horizontal more than in the vertical direction due to the shape of the electronic band structure is exchanged and the overlapping of the conduction and valence bands are more increased in the horizontal than in the vertical directions. Then, we can employ n Ga-doped ZnONS as a carrier of drug molecules. © 20205-FU; Band gap; DFT; Fermi level; Total energy; ZnONSElectronic properties; II-VI semiconductors; Kinetic energy; Kinetics; Molecules; Physicochemical properties; Zinc oxide; Anticancer drug; Carrier of drugs; DFT calculation; Electronic band structure; Electrostatic energies; Exchange correlations; Vertical direction; Zinc oxide nanosheets; GalliumThe authors would like to thank the Iraqi ministry of higher education and scientific research for its care of scientific researchers through the Iraqi virtual science library (IVSL).

In order to ensure best funding allocations and most effective maintenance and repair activities, the reliability of NDE technologies for a particular application needs to be carefully assessed to determine the margin of error (MOE) of NDE data. This research aims to investigate the utilization of “Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney (WMW) Statistics” for the reliability assessment of NDE technologies. The reliability of three of the most widely used NDE technologies for the detection of subsurface cracking in concrete was assessed using WMW analysis. The NDE technologies assessed were: Impact Echo (IE), Infrared Thermography (IRT), and Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR). Two in-service bridge decks and two full-scale fabricated deck slabs were nondestructively tested to provide suitable data for analysis. The in-service bridge decks contained areas of mild and severe subsurface cracking as determined from previous testing performed by the Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT). The fabricated decks, on the other hand, contained areas of synthetic cracking of different sizes and depths. The reliability indices determined from WMW analysis for the three NDE technologies discussed in this manuscript are exactly equivalent to the indices determined previously by the same authors using Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC) analysis. Results of WMW analysis, by the way, indicated that IE and IRT technologies were more reliable than GPR for the detection of concrete subsurface cracking. The final WMW indices of IE and IRT data were much higher than the corresponding indices of GPR data for both the in-service bridge decks and the fabricated slabs. The interesting equivalence between WMW and ROC analyses may encourage other researchers to utilize the former method in order to investigate the reliability of other NDE technologies in other applications. The findings of this research may also assist decision-makers considering the use of these NDE technologies in order to form decisions regarding maintenance and repair needs for bridges. © 2020 Institution of Structural EngineersGround Penetrating Radar (GPR); Impact Echo (IE); Infrared Thermography (IRT); Nondestructive evaluation; Reliability; Wilcoxon-Mann-WhitneyYehia, S., Detection of common defects in concrete bridge decks using nondestructive evaluation techniques (2007) J Bridge Eng, 12 (2), pp. 215-225; Yehia, S., Ground-penetrating radar, chain drag, and ground truth: correlation of bridge deck assessment data (2008) Transp Res Record: J Transp Res Board, 2044, pp. 39-50; Rodrigues-Bigaton, D., Accuracy and reliability of infrared thermography in the diagnosis of arthralgia in women with temporomandibular disorder (2013) J Manipulative Physiol Ther, 36 (4), pp. 253-258; Keprate, A., Ratnayake, R., Probability of detection as a metric for quantifying NDE capability: the state of the art (2015) J Pipeline Eng, 14 (3); Meeker, W.Q., A methodology for predicting probability of detection for ultrasonic testing (2001) AIP Conf Proc, 557, pp. 1972-1978; Matzkanin, G.A., Yolken, H., Probability of Detection (POD) for Nondestructive Evaluation (NDE). 2001, DTIC Document; Shin, H., Grivas, D.A., How accurate is ground-penetrating radar for bridge deck condition assessment?

Compression index (Cc) is used to predict the compressibility of soil and estimate how much settlement which is occurred due to loads of different engineering structures. In this study, soil investigations reports were used for the city of Al-Nasiriya which were carried out by the national construction laboratories. Physical properties results showed that Al-Nasiriya city soil has a low to high compressibility and it is classified as inorganic clays of medium to high plasticity. The simple linear regression analysis was applied for estimating compression index indirectly through using some properties of soil indices such as atterberg limits. The correlation coefficient of the linear regression model indicated the presence of reasonable relationships between the compression index and the parameters proposed in this paper. The obtained results showed that the best model is capable of predicting the amount of compression index and with higher accuracy is based on liquidity limits in regression analyses. There is also a reasonable agreement between measured and predicted compression index values in addition to presence a small difference between calculated values using statistical properties for atterberg limits. The empirical equations obtained from simple linear regression model can be reliably used in engineering designs for study area with high confidence. © 2020, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.Al-Nasiriya city;

Most studies focus on gathering insight on risk factors from researchers or management-related employees using a cross-sectional survey. This study aimed to investigate and rate key factors contributing to worker safety—namely site conditions, as well as human, environmental, social, economic, organizational, regulatory, psychological, and ergonomic factors—from a worker perspective. The impact of these factors was determined in terms of the amount of risk added to the risks resulting from the degrees of connectivity (DoC) model scenarios—a novel accident causation model. The study also aimed to determine whether particular trades are associated with differing risk levels related to these factors. Responses from a sample of highly experienced construction workers from the northwestern region of the United States were collected, refined, and analyzed after several rounds of surveys using the Delphi method. The research results show that organizational factors are perceived to have the greatest impact on construction worker safety, while human factors have the least impact. The results also reveal no association between the trades and the risk ratings. This study provides experienced workers’ opinions regarding factors that might magnify the risks resulting from DoC scenarios. The study is unique in that construction workers’ feedback has been utilized and analyzed using the Delphi method. Project planners and safety risk managers may benefit from the ratings of the various factors when undertaking planning and preparation activities before and during construction. © 2020, King Fahd University of Petroleum & Minerals.Construction safety; Construction workers; Delphi method; Risk factors; Statistical analysisClevenger, C., Puerto, L., Glick, S., Developing a BIM-enabled bilingual safety training module for the construction industry (2014) Proceedings of the Construction Research Congress 2014, , Construction in a Global Network, Atlanta, GA, USA; (2019) National Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries in 2018, , https://www.bls.gov/news.release/pdf/cfoi.pdf, January 30, 2020; Safety and health in the construction sector- overcoming the challenges (2014) International Labor Organization, , https://www.ilo.org/empent/Eventsandmeetings/WCMS_310993/lang–en/index.htm, Retrieved from:, (7th Jan 2020); Alomari, K.A., Gambatese, J.A., Tymvios, N., Risk perception comparison among construction safety professionals: Delphi perspective (2018) J.

The model is then used to study the mode characteristics. The modes are going to cutoff point at zero propagation constant, while it goes to surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) mode at higher photon energy.

We perform a comparison between the reduced differential transform method (RDTM) and local fractional series expansion method (LFSEM) employed to the LFFPE. The operators are considered in the local nature. The outcomes demonstrate the important characteristic of the two techniques which are very successful and simple to solve the differential equations having fractional derivative operator of local nature. © 2020Fokker Planck equation; Local fractional derivative operators; Reduce differential transform method; Series expansion methodPhysics; Cantor sets; Computational technique; Differential transform method; Fractional derivative operator; Fractional Fokker-Planck equation; Series expansion methods; Fokker Planck equationRisken, H., The Fokker Planck Equation Method of Solution and Applications (1989), Springer Verlag Berlin, Heidelberg; Wang, S.Q., Yang, Y.J., Jassim, H.K., Local fractional function decomposition method for solving inhomogeneous wave equations with local fractional derivative (2014) Abstr.

Most methods of design the jet-grouting column based on experience. In this study, a prototype single and group jet grouting models (single, 1∗2, and 2∗2) with the total length and diameter were (2000 and 150 mm) respectively and clear spacing (3D) has been constructed in soft clay and subjected to vertical axial loads. Furthermore, different theoretical methods have been used for the estimation of (JGC) settlement. Pile load settlement analysis of the jet grout columns showed that the average settlement values were (0.41, 0.663, and 1.5 mm) for the single, group (1∗2) and group (2∗2) jet grouted columns respectively. While, in the theoretical methods give a higher value of the settlement (2.0, 3.48, and 5.24 mm) for the single, group (1∗2) and group (2∗2) jet grouted columns compared with the settlement results acquired from field pile load test data. Therefore, it is not recommended to be used for soft clay. On the other hand, Fuller and Hoy's, Hansen's 90%, and Butler and Hoy's results may be considered faithful interpretation methods for the single and group (1∗2 and 2∗2) (JGC). © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Shen, S.L., Wang, Z.F., Sun, W.J., Wang, L.B., Horpibulsuk, S., A field trial of horizontal jet grouting using the composite-pipe method in the soft deposits of Shanghai Tunnelling and Underground (2013) Space Technology, 35, pp. 142-151; Pinto, A., Tomásio, R., Marques, G., Ground improvement with jet grouting solutions at the new cruise terminal in Lisbon (2016) Portugal Procedia engineering, 143, pp. 1495-1502; Chen, J.J., Zhang, L, Zhang, J.F., Zhu, Y.F., Wang, J.H., Field tests, modification, and application of deep soil mixing method in soft clay (2013) Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering, 139, pp. 24-34; Horpibulsuk, S., Phojan, W., Suddeepong, A., Chinkulkijniwat, A., Liu, M.D., Strength development in blended cement admixed saline clay (2012) Applied clay science, 55, pp. 44-52; Shen, S.L., Wang, Z.F., Horpibulsuk, S., Kim, Y.H., Jet grouting with a newly developed technology: the twin-jet method (2013) Engineering Geology, 152, pp. 87-95; Bustamante, M., (2002) Report of the Seminar: Pathology of soils and foundations, , (Hammamet) Jet grouting columns; Makovetskiy, O.A., Application of "Jet Grouting" for installation of substructures of estates (2016) Procedia Engineering, 150, pp. 2228-2231; Anna, J., Bzówka, J., Numerical simulations of settlement of jet grouting columns (2016) Transactions of the VŠB-Technical University of Ostrava Civil Engineering Series, 16, pp. 1-6; Fan, J., Wang, D., Qian, D, Soil-cement mixture properties and design considerations for reinforced excavation (2018) Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 10, pp. 791-797; Bzówka, J., Juzwa, A., Wanik, K., Wanik, L., Żyrek, T., Discussion on the influence of various technological parameters on jet grouting columns geometry (2015) Transactions of the VŠB-Technical University of Ostrava Civil Engineering Series, 15, pp. 11-16. , T; (2014) Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete (ACI 318-14): an ACI Standard: Commentary on Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete (ACI 318R-14): an ACI Report, , ACI Committee 318 (American Concrete Institute); Poulos, H.G., Davis, E.H., (1980) Pile Foundation Analysis and Design; D 1143/D 1143M-07 Standard Test Methods for Deep Foundations under Static Axial Compressive Load, , ASTM; Zein, A.K.M., Ayoub, E.M., Evaluation of measured and interpreted failure loads of bored piles in alluvial soil deposits (2016) International journal of GEOMATE: geotechnique, construction materials and environment, 10, pp. 1636-1643; Prakash, S., Sharma, H.D., (1990) Pile Foundations in Engineering Practice, , (John Wiley & Sons); Budhu, M., (2008) Soil Mechanics and Foundations, , (John Wiley & Sons); Das, B.M., (2011) Principles of Foundation Engineering, , Global Engineering-Christopher M; Lorenzo, G.A., Bergado, D.T., Fundamental characteristics of cement-admixed clay in deep mixing (2006) Journal of materials in civil engineering, 18, pp. 161-174; Terzaghi, K., Peck, R.B., Mesri, G., (1996) Soil Mechanics in Engineering Practice, , (John Wiley & Sons)Al-Kinani, A.M.; Department of Civil Engineering, Iraq; email: al1984kinani@gmail.comIOP Publishing Ltd2020 International Conference on Geotechnical Engineering-Iraq, ICGE-Iraq 202019 February 2020 through 20 February 202016296117578981EnglishIOP Conf.

Internal sulphate attack takes place due to the source of sulphate being incorporated into the concrete at the period of mixing, while adding gypsum in the cement etc. This project aims to investigate the influence of internal Sulphate Attack (ISA) on some characteristics of light weight (LWC) and normal concrete (NC). In this study, two types of concretes have been prepared, light weight and normal concrete. Two levels of sulphates (3% and 6%) are added as a part of sand to determine the influence of sulphates on NC and LWC that produced a local material and compared it with control normal mix. These added ratios of sulphate are highly convergence of the actual reality of internal sulphate. To decrease the harmful effect of internal sulphate coming from 3 and 6% by weight of sand, two ways have been utilized in this study. First one, using type I cement with 20% of silica – fume as replacement with a part of ordinary cement, second one by SRPC instead of type I is preferred to resist internal effect of sulphate. Light weight concrete has been prepared by total replacement for gravels by crushed bricks. As a result of this research, it concluded that the increment of SO3 amount caused a decrement in the compressive strength by 43.81% at 90 days and by 33.5 % at 60 days but there is a slight effect appear at 28 for samples consist of OPC with presence of 3% SO3. When sulphates increased to 6%, compressive strength decreased by 49.3% at 90 day, and by 38.3% at age of 60 days with very slight effect at age of 28 days. Tensile strength of NC follows same the behaviour as that of the compressive strength. For light weight concrete, the reduction in compressive and tensile strength will result from combined effect of the ettringite formation and high porosity due to introducing crushed bricks as total replacement for gravels. LWC was highly effected by sulphate attack even at early ages and it concluded that the increment in the SO3 amount by (0-3) % by weight of sand, the compressive strength of LWC, decreased by 20.11 % at age of 28 days, 29% at 60 days, while they decreased by 44 % was at 90 days. Using of 20% silica fume with type I cement heals the effect of 3% and 6% calcium sulphate in the A4 and A5 samples and produced a compressive and tensile strength approximately equal to that of control samples. Using of SRPC with 3% and 6% calcium sulphate in the A7, A8, L7 and L8 samples prevented the effect of internal sulphate in both NC and LWC and gave compressive and tensile strength higher than that of standard samples (without sulphate). © 2020.

Hence, we posit that ensuring fairness in multimodal cyber-bullying detectors (e.g., equal performance irrespective of the gender of the victim) is an important research challenge. We propose a fairness-aware fusion framework that ensures that both fairness and accuracy remain important considerations when combining data coming from multiple modalities. In this Bayesian fusion framework, the inputs coming from different modalities are combined in a way that is cognizant of the different confidence levels associated with each feature and the interdependencies between features. Specifically, this framework assigns weights to different modalities not just based on accuracy but also their fairness. Results of applying the framework on a multimodal (visual + text) cyberbullying detection problem demonstrate the value of the proposed framework in ensuring both accuracy and fairness. © 2020 IEEE.Bayesian Fusion; Bias in Machine Learning; Cyberbullying Detection; Fairness; Multimedia FusionBig data; Computer crime; Bayesian fusion; Confidence levels; Cyber bullying; Demographic groups; Detection problems; Multimedia algorithms; Multiple modalities; Research challenges; Face recognitionNational Science Foundation, NSF: 1915790, SES-1915790; Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, MOHESRACKNOWLEDGMENT The work of Jamal Alasadi was supported by the MO-HESR, Iraq.

The finite element method (FEM) by COMSOL environment was used to investigate the properties and sensing performance numerically. The sensor is made from photonic crystal fiber surrounded by a layer of noble metal. The effect on the outer surface of the PCF of various selective noble metals (gold, silver and copper) used to efficiently generate surface plasmon resonance (SPR) has been studied. A high wavelength sensitivity with a limit of 5000 (nm/RIU) was achieved for different refractive index of analyte. The simulation results indicate that closing holes to the center of the sensor have high influence on the sensitivity of the refractive index, where the wavelength sensitivity and the peaks values in the behavior of the losses curves were increased. For all tests, the relation of wavelength of resonant with the refractive index of analyte was linear, meaning that the sensor could be used for a wider range of refractive index of analyte. Realized amplitude sensitivity reaches 1 300RIU-1 at h=5.5µm. Using the same value of h will make the wavelength sensitivity in presence of gold better than the other elements, while the presence of copper is the best in term of amplitude sensitivity. © 2020, Anka Publishers.

All the events have a similarity in the intensity time profile, they fit under the gradual type and associated with halo coronal mass ejections CMEs and three of them were associated with a solar flare. The acceleration of the impulsive phase should be a result of coronal shock due to investigations of the radio type II emission and the gradual part as a result of interplanetary shock, which caused a D-H radio emission. The record of the shock waves by (Charge, Element, and Isotope Analysis System) CELIAS onboard SOHO did not appear for two of those events although all the evidence suggested that there were strong shocks associated with those SEP events at the sun and interplanetary IP medium beside auroral observation at earth were seen in association of the arrival time. The observations suggested that the shocks that did not see on CELIAS were decelerating and gradually the mean free path of them reach the IP medium and the shocks dissolve in IP medium before passing SOHO but the characteristics of the intensity time were not online with this suggestion since acceleration were continued. We suggested that the magnetic field in the IP medium played a rule in changing the shock wave direction and hence it did not pass the spacecraft. © 2020, Anka Publishers.

Pyrolysis is one of the thermal treatments for biomass wastes that results in the production of liquid, solid and gaseous products. Unfortunately, the complex structure of the biomass materials matrix needs elevated heating to convert these materials into useful products. Microwave heating is a promising alternative to conventional heating approaches. Recently, it has been widely used in pyrolysis due to easy operation and its high heating rate. This review tries to identify the microwave-assisted pyrolysis treatment process fundamentals and discusses various key operating parameters which have an effect on product yield. It was found that several operating parameters govern this process such as microwave power and the degree of temperature, microwave absorber addition and its concentration, initial moisture content, initial sweep gas flow rate/residence time. Moreover, this study highlighted the most attractive products of the microwave pyrolysis process. These products include synthesis gas, bio-char, and bio-oil. The benefits and challenges of microwave heating are discussed. © 2020 by the authors.Bio-char; Bio-oil; Biomass; Microwave-assisted pyrolysis; Operating parametersUniversiti Putra MalaysiaThis research was funded by Research Management Center of University Putra Malaysia.Zadeh, Z.E., Abdulkhani, A.O., Saha, B., Recent Insights into lignocellulosic biomass pyrolysis: A critical review on pretreatment, characterization, and products upgrading (2020) Processes., 8, p. 799; Ethaib, S., Omar, R., Kamal, S.M., Biak, D.A., Microwave-assisted pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass: A review (2015) J.

Following replication, CoVs assemble on intracellular membranes including the endoplasmic reticulum Golgi intermediate compartment (ERGIC) where the envelope protein (E) functions in virus assembly and release. In consequence, E potentially contains membrane-modifying peptides. To search for such peptides, the E coding sequence of Mouse Hepatitis Virus (MHV) was inspected for its amino acid conservation, proximity to the membrane and/or predicted amphipathic helices. Peptides identified in silico were synthesized and tested for membrane-modifying activity in the presence of giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) consisting of 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC), sphingomyelin and cholesterol. To confirm the presence of membrane binding peptides identified in the context of a full-length E protein, the wild type and a number of mutants in the putative membrane binding peptide were expressed in Lenti-X-293T mammalian and insect cells, and the distribution of E antigen within the expressing cell was assessed. Our data identify a role for the post-transmembrane region of MHV E in membrane binding. © 2020 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.

B 1014, Rabat, Morocco, Hassan II Academy of Science and Technology, Rabat, MoroccoIn this paper, we reported a computational study of the 2-D nanomaterial (SnSi) as a possible new nanomaterial to be synthesized. This study is chiefly based on density functional theory calculation, which is implemented in the wien2k code. In fact, we calculated the electronic properties such as electronic band structures, band gaps, DOS, formation energy, and electrical conductivity of three types of monolayers Stana-Silicene; (SnSi, SnSi3, and SnSi7) with various concentrations (50%, 25%, and 12.5%) of the Sn and the Tin atoms. By computing the formation energy of these materials within various concentrations of the Sn atoms, we observed that the SnSi monolayer has more stability than SnSi3 and SnSi7. Another important result is that the electrical conductivity of SnSi depends on the concentrations of the Sn atoms. Indeed, it increases by increasing the concentration of the Sn atoms. By using various concentrations of the Tin atoms, we found out that all these nanomaterials behave as a semiconductor material within direct electronic band gaps. © 2020, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.DFT; Electrical conductivity; Electronic band gap; Semiconductor; Stana-siliceneAtoms; Computation theory; Electric conductivity; Electronic properties; Energy gap; Monolayers; Nanostructured materials; Silicene; Tin; 2D nanomaterial; Computational studies; DFT study; Electrical conductivity; Electronic band gaps; Electronic band structure; Formation energies; Tin atoms; Density functional theoryAl-Abboodi, M.H., Ajeel, F.N., Khudhair, A.M., Influence of oxygen impurities on the electronic properties of graphene nanoflakes (2017) Physica E, 88, pp. 1-5; Berger, C., Song, Z., Li, T., Li, X., Ogbazghi, A.Y., Feng, R., Ultrathin epitaxial graphite: 2D electron gas properties and a route toward graphene-based nanoelectronics (2004) J.

These bran fractions were incorporated into pasta at 1, 5, 10 and 20% and the phytochemical and technological properties evaluated. Higher incorporation of bran, especially at 20%, reduced pasta quality, but a reduced impact was seen at the same degree of incorporation using finer bran. Bran increased antioxidants (by up to 65%), ferulic acid (up to 400%) and phytosterols (up to 130%) in pasta, parameters which were insensitive to bran particle size above 10% incorporation except for ferulic acid, which was higher in particles between 248 and 1497 μm. It is recommended to use finer fractions if bran is added to pasta at 20% and higher, since they provide a better quality pasta while still delivering enhancements in phytochemical content above regular semolina pasta. © 2020 Elsevier LtdBran; Durum wheat; Microstructure; Pasta; PhytochemicalsNSW Department of Primary Industries, DPI; University of New England, UNE; Ministry of Higher Education, MOHE; Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, MHESRThis research was supported by the University of New England and NSW Department of Primary Industries , Australia.

Evaluating the treatment of polluted water (sewage) in nontraditional ways and assessing consumption in the agriculture sector are the main purposes of this study. Two Plants were used in the current study Schoenoplectus litoralis and Hordeum vulgare to remove heavy metals and nutrients, making this technique effective in pollution control. Samples were collected from the storage terminal of the wastewater station in Al-Nassiriya (Indian station), Physicochemical analysis of both sewage and tap water was performed for following parameters; Ion Hydrogen (pH), electrical conductivity (EC), Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), Total Suspended Solid (TSS), Carbon Dioxide CO2, Magnesium (Mg2+), Calcium (Ca2+), Sodium (Na+), total hardness, alkalinity, Chloride (Cl−), sulphates (SO42−), phosphates (PO43−), nitrates (NO3−), Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) and Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD5) were evaluated. Moreover, four trace metals [Lead (Pb+2), Nickel (Ni+2), Copper (Cu+2) and Cadmium (Cd+2)] and the sodium adsorption ratio (SAR) were evaluated. The plants varied in their responses to metals. This study revealed that plants have a high heavy metal removal capacity. © 2020 National Institute of Oceanography and FisheriesConstructed wetlands; Phytoremediation; Pollutant removal; Wastewater treatmentAbou-Elela, H.M., Abou-Elela, G.M., Ghozlan, H.A., Hussein, H., Sabry, S.A., Charaterization and bioremediation potential of marine Psychrobacter species (2016) Egypt.

Here, the electrical and thermoelectric properties of metallocenes containing divalent ions Fe, Ni, and Co (ferrocene, nickelocene, and cobaltocene) were investigated. This was achieved by calculating the electronic and phononic transmission coefficients together with the electrical conductance and Seebeck coefficient. The analysis results suggest that the electrical conductance can be tuned by metal substitution, and the thermal conductance due to the electrons across this family of molecules take the order nickelocene > ferrocene > cobaltocene. In contrast, the contribution of phonons to the thermal conductance of these junctions is very insensitive to the selection of the metal atom. Metal substitution has the potential to change both the sign and the amplitude of thermopower. © 2020, The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society.electrical conductance; organometallic; Seebeck coefficient; Single-molecule thermoelectricityElectric conductance; Iron compounds; Molecules; Organometallics; Phonons; Thermal conductivity; Thermoelectric equipment; Thermoelectricity; Waste heat; Electrical conductance; Electron and phonon transports; Nanoscale junctions; Single-molecule junctions; Thermal conductance; Thermo-Electric materials; Thermoelectric properties; Transmission coefficients; MetalsAviram, A., Ratner, M.A., (1974) J.

B 1014, Rabat, Morocco, Institute of Nanomaterials and Nanotechnology, MAScIR, Rabat, Morocco, Hassan II Academy of Science and Technology, Rabat, MoroccoWe studied the electronic, optical, and electrical conductivity properties of the two types of the single-layer tetragonal silicon carbides (SiC), termed as T1 and T2, by using DFT and Boltzmann theory. The latter two theories are implemented in the wien2k code and Boltztrap package, respectively. We detected that the behaviors of these 2-D nanomaterials are both affected by and dependent on the sites of the C and Si atoms in the SiC structures. Our results demonstrated that T1 is a semiconductor nanomaterial with direct electronic band gap; but the second type of the SiC (T2) is a conductor nanomaterial. Furthermore, we found out that the optical properties of these 2-D nanomaterials are also influenced by the positions of the C and Si atoms in the T1 and T2. Another significant result is the electrical conductivity. The T1 has a better electrical conductivity comparing it to T2. In brief, we predict that T1 will be very useful in various applications such as being used to create solar cells, nano-devices, transistors and phototransistors. © 2020Band gap; Conductor; DFT; Electrical conductivity; Semiconductors; SiCElectric conductivity; Energy gap; Nanostructured materials; Optical properties; Phototransistors; Silicon carbide; Wide band gap semiconductors; Boltzmann theory; Electrical conductivity; Electronic band gaps; Nano device; Si atoms; Silicon carbides (SiC); Single layer; Crystal atomic structureAl-Abboodi, M.H., Ajeel, F.N., Khudhair, A.M., Influence of oxygen impurities on the electronic properties of graphene nanoflakes (2017) Phys.

Methods and Results: Various bacterial species have been demonstrated to involve in human cancers. However, the data is not enough for better understanding of predominant specific species. Application of a rapid and early-diagnostic, cost-effective, non-invasive, and inclusive method is a crucial approach for obtaining valid results. The role of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) in gastric and duodenal cancer has been confirmed. From investigation among previous publications, we attempted to make it clear which bacterial species significantly and specifically increase in various cancer types. It was unraveled that there is significant change in Granulicatella adiacens (G. adiacens) in lung cancer (LC), Fusobacterium nucleatum (F. nucleatum) in colorectal cancer (CRC), H. pylori and Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) in pancreatic cancer, and Streptococcus spp. in oral cancer. Conclusion: Alteration in the cell cycle by means of different mechanisms such as inflammation, alteration in cell signaling, invasion and immune evasion, specific niche colonization, induction of DNA damage and mutation, expression of some microRNAs, and enhancing epigenetic effects are the most common mechanisms employed by bacterial species. © 2019, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.Bacterial biomarkers;

Additionally, there is an osmotic effect on salty water flow in porous concrete. However, so far, a fully profound understanding of the coupled cyclic wetting–drying and osmosis effects on the chloride movement in concrete is still limited. This paper reports on a comprehensive study on the topic. A series of experimental tests was conducted initially for the vapour-water sorption isotherm (VWSI) of normal concrete of different porosity and chloride content. Thereafter, a novel mathematical model was proposed and validated to characterise the effect of chloride salt on the vapour absorption and water retention behaviour of concrete. Finally, the proposed characteristic model was implemented in a numerical model to simulate chloride ingress in concrete in tidal zones. The vapour-water sorption isotherm model successfully provides an effective tool to quantify the coupled influence of cyclic wetting–drying and osmosis on chloride transportation in concrete. © 2020 Elsevier LtdChloride; Concrete; Osmotic effect; Unsaturated suction; Water saturationAdsorption isotherms; Chlorine compounds; Deterioration; Drying; Flow of water; Osmosis; Water absorption; Wetting; Characteristic model; Chloride contents; Chloride transportations; Cyclic wetting and drying; Deterioration process; Experimental test; Vapour absorptions; Water sorption isotherms; ConcretesSergi, G., Yu, S., Page, C., Diffusion of chloride and hydroxyl ions in cementitious materials exposed to a saline (1992) Mag.

The results of X-ray diffraction show that structure of the powder is polycrystalline with monoclinic structure, and the results of XRD for a thin film of NiPc shows polycrystalline with a fairly weak degree of crystallization, SEM revealed that the surface of the film is usually homogeneous, the roughness of NiPc films was evaluated by AFM technique and the results showed that the grain size increases with increasing of concentration. The optical measurement using UV-Visible Spectra showed that the NiPc thin films have an optical constant like the absorption coefficient and have a direct energy gap for all samples. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Nickel Phthalocyanines; Organic semiconductor; structural and optical propertiesNickel; Optical data processing; Optical properties; Scanning electron microscopy; Spray pyrolysis; Thin films; Absorption co-efficient; Chemical spray pyrolysis; Degree of crystallization; Different substrates; Monoclinic structures; Nickel phthalocyanines; Scanning electron micrographs; Structural and optical properties; Optical filmsKadish, K.M., Guilard, R., Smith, K.M., (2012) The Porphyrin Handbook: Phthalocyanines: Synthesis, 15; Lever, A.B.P., The Phthalocyanines (1965) Adv.

In this paper, we suggest an algorithm for recognizing hand gestures of Arabic words by using dumb (through signs) and convert the sings into voice corresponding to sings words. The proposed algorithm for Convert Gestures of Arabic Words into Voice, record video of gesture (of the dumb person) then convert the video into frames (images), preprocessing for the resulted image must done by remove the noise, resize the images and increase the contrast, then calculate the distance to clustering the words by using (C4.5, k-mean, k- medoid and artificial neural network), calculate the distance (or features) by using Euclidean distance and slope where, there are eighteen features (eight features from Euclidean distance, eight features from slop, Area, and perimeter). The results in the training stage were (C4.5 gave 100%, k-mean gave 95.2% k-medoid gave 91.9% and ANN gave 91.27%). While in the testing stage we used three classifiers (Euclidian Distance, Modify of the Standardize Euclidian Distance and Correlation) and the results show that (Euclidian Distance gave 94.4%, Modify of the Standardize Euclidian Distance gave 100% and Correlation gave 94.4%) We create our database (three videos with 250 frames) for training and one video for testing. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.C4.5; Feature Extraction; Gestures; K-Mean; K-Medoid and ANNClassification (of information); Euclidean distance; Euclidian distance; Hand gesture; K-means; K-medoid; K-means clusteringSyam Babu, Ch.V.N., Kishor Sonti, V.J.K., Varthamanan, Y., Design and Simulation of Communication Aid for Disabled Using Threshold Based Segmentation (2016) I J C T A, 9, pp. 3275-3281; Abdalla Mohamed, S., Hemayed Elsayed, E., Dynamic Hand Gesture Recognition of Arabic Sign Language using Hand Motion Trajectory Features (2013) Global Journal of Computer Science and Technology Graphics & Vision, 13, pp. 26-33; Hemina, B., Jeegar, T., Review on Classification Methods used in Image based Sign Language Recognition System (2017) International Journal on Recent and Innovation Trends in Computing and Communication, 5, pp. 949-959; Kumud, T., Neha, B., Nandi, G.C., Continuous Indian Sign Language Gesture Recognition and Sentence Formation (2015) Procedia Computer Science, 54, pp. 523-531; Liu, Y., Zhang, L., Zhang, S., A Hand Gesture Recognition Method Based on Multi-Feature Fusion and Template Matching (2012) Procedia Engineering, 29, pp. 1678-1684; Pablo, B., Maciel-Junior Nestor, T., Fernandes Bruno, J.T., Bezerra Byron, L.D., Fernandes Sergio, M.M., A dynamic gesture recognition and prediction system using the convexity approach (2017) Computer Vision and Image Understanding, 155, pp. 139-149; Wei, D., Wei, J., A Map Reduce Implementation of C4.5 Decision Tree Algorithm (2014) International Journal of Database Theory and Application, 7 (1), pp. 49-60; Christopher, C., James, N., (2009) Oxford Concise Dictionary of Mathematics; Hermann, K., (2011) Real-Time Systems Design Principles for Distributed Embedded Applications; Michel Marie, D., Elena, D., (2009) Encyclopedia of Distances, p. 94; Marghitu Dan, B., Mihai, D., (2012) Advanced Dynamics, pp. 73-141; Stroud, H., (1971) Approximate Calculation of Multiple Integrals; Ban Har, Y., Joseph, Y., Teh Keng, S., Loh Cheng, Y., Ivy, C., Neo Chai, M., Jacinth, L., (2018) NEW SYLLABUS MATHEMATICS TEACHER'S RESOURCE BOOK; Anský Pavol, O.R., (2009) Fundamentals of Mathematical Statistics; Miranda Neto, A., Correa Victorino, A., Fantoni, I., Zampieri, D.E., Ferreira, J.V., Lima, D.A., (2013) Image Processing Using Pearson's Correlation Coefficient: Applications on Autonomous RoboticsIOP Publishing Ltd5th International Scientific Conference of Al-Khwarizmi Society, FISCAS 202026 June 2020 through 27 June 202016272017426588EnglishJ.

This model represents the movement of growing population that is ruled by convection process. In this paper, we concentrate on proving the existence of traveling wave solutions for the nonlinear convection-reaction equations. In addition, we consider the model when the speed of advective wave may breakdown and the problem has a shock wave solution.

The classification method depends on the Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR), where we use a new method. In this method, we use a combination of three methods to extract features from an image; Single Value Decomposition (SVD), Edge Histogram Descriptor (EHD) and Color Auto-Correlogram for Extraction Features. You will use these features to find the closest similarities to the query image from the database images by selecting the closest 3 images, then choosing the class to which the closest two images belong to the retrieved. The combined method showed 100% accuracy in training phase and 100% test phase accuracy. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.CBIR; Classification; EHD and Color Auto-correlogram; SVDAccidents; Content based retrieval; Query processing; Classification methods; Combined method; Content-Based Image Retrieval; Database images; Edge histogram descriptors; Phase accuracy; Police station; Single value decompositions; Image classificationReshma, C., Patil, A.M., Content Based Image Retrieval Using Color and Shape Features (2012) International Journal of Advanced Research in Electrical, Electronics and Instrumentation Engineering, 1; Gunjan, K., Navin, R., Jasvinder, S., Evaluation of Euclidean and Manhanttan Metrics in Content Based Image Retrieval System (2014) Journal of Engineering Research and Applications, 4, pp. 43-49; Vadhri, S., Raja Rao, M.V.L.N., Bhaskara Reddy, P., Ravindra Babu, G., IMAGE RETRIEVAL SYSTEM USING HYBRID FEATURE EXTRACTION TECHNIQUE (2012) International Journal of Computer Science & Information Technology (IJCSIT), 4; Abdulkadhem Abdulkareem, A., (2019) An Intelligent Roads Map Discovery Based on Video Tracking Techniques; Lowe David, G., Distinctive Image Features from Scale-Invariant Keypoints (2004) International Journal of Computer Vision, 60 (2), p. 91; Samruddhi, K., Reena, R., Image Compression using Singular Value Decomposition (2013) International Journal of Advancements in Research & Technology, 2; Mounika, K., Sri Navya Lakshmi, D., Alekya, K., SVD BASED IMAGE COMPRESSION (2015) International Journal of Engineering Research and General Science, 3; Sura Ramzi, S., Digital ImageWatermarking Using Singular Value Decomposition (2010) Raf.

Here we study Schrödinger operator with zero-range potentials, because this operator has great importance for understanding the solvable problems in quantum mechanics and atomic physics. It appears in different models such as the mathematical physics, applied mathematics and theoretical physics. We have two objectives in this work. We first demonstrated that this operator has a continuous spectrum contains an infinite number of bands separated by gaps. We then explained that the bands to gaps ratio tends to zero under certain conditions. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Quantum theory; Applied mathematics; Continuous spectrum; Infinite numbers; Mathematical physics; Second derivatives; Theoretical physics; Zero-range potentials; Atomic physicsAlbeverio, S., Gesztesy, F., Hoegh-Krohn, R., Holden, H., (2012) Solvable Models in Quantum Mechanics; Albeverio, S., Kurasov, P., (2000) Singular Perturbations of Differential Operators: Solvable Schrödinger-type Operators, 271; Avron, J.E., Exner, P., Last, Y., Periodic Schrödinger operators with large gaps and Wannier-Stark ladders (1994) Physical Review Letters, 72 (6), p. 896; Cheon, T., Shigehara, T., (1999) Mathematical Results in Quantum Mechanics, pp. 203-208; Demkov, Y.N., Ostrovskii, V.N., (2013) Zero-range Potentials and Their Applications in Atomic Physics; Exner, P., Grosse, H., (1999) Some Properties of the One-dimensional Generalized Point Interactions (A Torso); Gesztesy, F., Holden, H., A new class of solvable models in quantum mechanics describing point interactions on the line (1987) Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and General, p. 5157; Gesztesy, F., Holden, H., Kirsch, W., On energy gaps in a new type of analytically solvable model in quantum mechanics (1988) Journal of Mathematical Analysis and Applications, 134 (1), pp. 9-29; Hameed, E., (2009); Kronig, R.D.L., Penney, W.G., Quantum mechanics of electrons in crystal lattices (1931) Proceedings of the Royal Society of London.

The shape and size of the openings should be chose carefully. While experimental investigation and finite element analysis are difficult to conduct by field engineers, developing a simplified analytical method is important. This study presents an analytical method to examine the effect of opening on the area load capacity of square and rectangular slabs. Two factors were involved in the analysis to take in the account the shape of the slab and the opening. The aspect ratio between the long and short dimensions of slab mentioned by the variable (β), while the aspect ratio between the dimensions of opening is mentioned by the variable (α). The results show that openings have a significant effect on the area load capacity of concrete slabs. In addition, square openings have less effect on the load capacity of rectangular slabs, whereas, rectangular openings have a significant effect on the area load capacity of square slabs. Field engineers can use the presented equations in this study easily and effectively where an opening is required in an existing slab. © 2020 Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Koh Heng, B., Diah Abu Bakar, M., Lee Yee, L., Flexural Behaviour of Reinforced Concrete Slab with Opening (2009) Malaysian Technical Universities Conference on Engineering and Technology; Ahmed, I., Hani, S., Hamdy Shehab, E., Analysis of Waffle Slabs with and without Openings (2009) Journal of Structural Engineering, Asce; Anjaly, S., Preetha, P., Analysis of Reinforced Waffle Slab with Opening (2015) International Journal of Emerging Technology and Advanced Engineering, 3; Al-Hafiz Ali, M., Chiad Salam, S., Farhan Mohannad, S., Flexural Strength of Reinforced Concrete One-Way Opened Slabs with and without Strengthening (2013) Australian Journal of Basic and Applied Sciences, 7, pp. 642-651; Chkheiwer Aqeel, H., Abdullah Mazen, D., Flexural behaviour of high strength RC slabs with opening strengthening with wire mish and steel fibers (2017) Kufa Journal of Engineering, 8, pp. 103-118; Al-Gasham Thaar, S., Hilo Ali, N., Alawsi Manal, A., Structural behavior of reinforced concrete one-way slabs voided by polystyrene balls (2019) Case Studies in Construction Materials, 11; Bora Ashish, S., Gaidhankar Darshan, G., Kulkarni Mrudula, S., Analysis of Flat Slab with and Without Opening (2019) International Journal of Scientific and Technology Research, 8; Durgadevagi, Jabez, N.A., A Comparative Analysis of Slab with Different Shape of Cutout for Various End Conditions Using ANSYS (2016) Journal of Chemical and Pharmaceutical Research, 8, pp. 180-184; Daham Hossam, A., Analytical study of reinforced concrete with and without opening have different boundary conditions (2011) Journal of Al-Rafidien, 19; Mohan Roshini, T., Sankaranarayanan, K.M., Analysis of Two-way Slabs with and Without Opening for Different Boundary Conditions (2016) International Journal of Scientific and Research Publications, 6; Ng, C.K., Edward, T.J., Lee, D.K.T., Theoretical Evaluation on Effects of Opening on Ultimate Load-carrying Capacity of Square Slabs (2008) Electronic Journal of Structural Engineering, 8, pp. 12-19; Nilson, A.H., (1997) Design of Concrete Structures; Mohan Roshini, T., Sankaranarayanan, K.M., Effect of Opening on Yield and Ultimate Strength of Two Way Reinforced Concrete Slab (2016) Asian Journal of Science and Technology, 9, pp. 3419-3423; Abdelrahman, E., Hany, M., Khalid, F., Three-Dimensional Numerical Investigation for Reinforced Concrete Slabs with Opening (2018) International Journal of Civil and Environmental Engineering, 12Muttashar, M.; Department of Civil Engineering, Iraq; email: majid.alzaidy@gmail.comInstitute of Physics Publishing3rd International Conference on Sustainable Engineering Techniques, ICSET 202015 April 202016223317578981EnglishIOP Conf.

The electron transport properties of molecular wires attached to side groups are investigated using steady-state theoretical model and density functional theory by using GAUSSIAN 09 software. We investigate the influence of the side group and torsion angle on the electronic properties of molecular wires. We calculate the spatial distribution of the frontier orbitals, energy gap, transmission probability and the current rectifying ratio for OPI, OPI-pyridine, OPI-pyrazine, OPI-thiophene and OPI-thiazole. The transmission spectra change remarkably depending on the type of side group and torsion angle. The current rectifying ratio will increase by increasing the difference between torsion angles depending on the type of side group. That means the OPI-side group can be employed in molecular electronics. © 2020 The Physical Society of the Republic of China (Taiwan)Conformation effect; Electron transport properties; OPI molecular wire; Torsion angle; Transmission probabilityMaiti, S.K., Electron transport through molecular bridge systems (2008) J.

It can play a vital role in the cause of morbidity and mortality through continued clinical consequence. Therefore, good knowledge of glycemic control is necessary for promoting care, enhancing better therapeutic outcomes, and in the prevention and management of diabetes complications. Diabetes self-management is necessary to ensure optimum Blood glucose level Control. However, limited data were available regarding the practice of self-management by Iraqi diabetic patients. A descriptive study was carried out to determine if the Patient’s Knowledge with diabetes type 2 for Self- Management Regarding Blood glucose level Control. From 2nd January, 2018 to 2nd July, 2019 in order to achieve the objectives of the present study. Including (111) males and (89) females. The data were collected by utilization of the study instruments and employment of scheduled interview as means data collection. The data collection process was performed from 2nd January, 2018 to 2nd July, 2019. A questionnaire was designed constructed by the researcher to measure the variable. The questionnaire consisted of 2 parts which are demographical, and diabetics’ self-care skills indicator toward blood glucose level control. The reliability of the questionnaire was determined through a pilot study and the validity through a panel of experts. The data were analyzed through the application of descriptive statistic frequency, percentage, and the application of inferential statistical procedures, which include the Pearson correlation coefficient, and contingency coefficient. This study shows the highest percent of the study samples were (50-59) years old with the mean age (34.5) years, most of them were married male. With a low educational level. With the group's duration are (1-5) years. Insufficient monthly income, unemployed, overweight, they had information from the physician. Also, they were diagnosed incidentally when they measure blood glucose during the physician visit. Most of the study samples were presented with a lack of knowledge regarding self-care management toward blood glucose level control by patients with diabetes type 2 diseases. There is a significant association between self-management toward blood glucose level control and (age, educational level, monthly income). While no significant with another variable. New diabetic patients should be engage in educational program by nurse & supply with booklet which include self- care skills toward blood glucose level control and supported by videotapes to enforce their practices, with the nurse supervision during visit them to the center, instructed to control their blood glucose level, and body weight to improve their self-care skills to avoid complications. © 2020 Wolters Kluwer Medknow Publications.

The need to reduce the anal sphincter damage lead to the use of fibrin glue, collagen plug, clip closure, mucosal flap advancement techniques, ligation of intersphincteric fistula tract (LIFT), Video-assisted anal fistula treatment (VAAFT) and Fistula laser closure (FiLaCTM). Carbon dioxide (CO2) laser used as a tool in the treatment of anal fistula. The CO2 10600nm laser allowing increased surgical precision and accuracy, thin depth (0.03mm) penetration, thereby reducing unnecessary damage to underlying tissues, and the procedure was with no bleeding, resulting in improving visualization of the surgical field, eliminating the need for electro-cautery which can cause more damage, also closed the lymphatic and nerve endings reduce the oedema and pain. The aim of this study is to evaluate the benefit of CO2 laser to remove anal fistula. Methods: 26patients between 23 to 45year old with a mean age of 32-year-old (SD±6.4) with high fistula in ano measured 7.5 to 10 cm, mean 8.41(SD±0.85), all were direct fistula except one was complicated & only one was a recurrent fistula. Operation (fistuloctomy) was done under spinal anaesthesia, Result: On following all patients, the pain was moderate in fourpatients, no primary bleeding, no recurrence or faecal incontinence; all patients started their Routine work in about fivedays. Conclusion: The CO2 laser may a good tool for anal fistula excision because of almost bloodless surgery, reduce the risk of infection and precisely controlled surgery which limits injury to surrounding tissue. © 2020 Wolters Kluwer Medknow Publications.

To this end, novel mathematically tractable exact expressions of the ER, the average detection probability (ADP) and the average area under the receiver characteristics curve (AUC) are derived. The asymptotic expressions at high average signal-To-noise ratio (SNR) values are also provided. A comparison between the numerical results and Monte Carlo simulations is presented to verify the validation of our analysis. The mathematical relationship between the ER and the performance metrics of the ED which is based on the time-bandwidth product, is explained. The provided results show that the increase in the time-bandwidth product from 1 to 4 reduces the ER, the ADP, and the average AUC by nearly 21%, 8%, and 3%, respectively, for constant average SNR at 15 dB and delay exponent at 0.1. © 2020 Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc..

The results appear that the gas molecules (HF and H2O) show weak physisorption on ZnGa-doping CNT with adsorption energy (Ead) ranging from –0.95 to ‒0.21 eV, while a powerful chemisorption molecule on pristine CNT ranging from 0.05 to 0.4 eV. Where we note that the total energy of the cases above increased dramatically at add dopants and with adsorption of gas molecules with total energy (Etotal) ranging from –103 461 to –0.49651 eV. Through our results, we can recommend the use of ZnGa-doped CNT as a gas chemical sensor. © 2020, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.density functional theory; gas molecules HF and H2O; nanotubesDensity functional theory; Gallium compounds; Molecules; Nanotubes; Physisorption; Quantum chemistry; Zinc; Adsorption energies; DFT study; Ga-doped; Gas molecules; Quantum chemistry calculations; Sensing property; Total energy; Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCN)Iijima, S., (1991) Nature (London, U.K.), 354, p. 56. , COI: 1:CAS:528:DyaK38Xmt1Ojtg%3D%3D; Liu, C., (1999) Science (Washington, DC, U.

There are very interesting results. So, the electronic properties are affected and altered. SWBNNTs is very sensitive to the Ce due to it has a higher adsorption energy and total energy with a negative sign, which made the Ce/SWBNNTs is more stable comparing to others nanoparticles. The electronic band gap and the shape of the DOS are changed. Also, there is the smallest value of the chemical hardness, which led to require small exaction energies to transfer electrons. Results demonstrated that all electronic properties of these nanoparticles are enhanced with Ce molecule and became very beneficial in various applications. Then, the authoritative inferences displayed in this study will promote the experimentalists to discover and use these nanoparticles as a carrier of the Ce that can lead to useful to proposal all these nanoparticles, which under study as chelating factors in nanovaccines. © 2020 Elsevier LtdBand gap; Cellulose; DFT; Fullerene; SWBNNTsBoron nitride; Cellulose; Cerium; Chelation; Electronic properties; Energy gap; III-V semiconductors; Nanoparticles; Nitrides; Adsorption energies; Boron nitride nanosheets; Boron nitride nanotubes; Chemical hardness; Delivery systems; Electronic band gaps; Total energy; Transfer electrons; Density functional theory; Boron; Cellulose; Cerium; Chelation; Density; Electrons; Energy; NitridesWe would like to thank the Iraqi virtual science library (IVSL) because we got a lot of papers from this library, which help us to do this manuscript.

Our results reveal that RuBpy molecule possesses magnetic properties as well as two distinct conductance states. The key finding is that these two electrical states are primarily defined by the molecular configuration and not by the molecular length as it was initially suggested by fabricating group. © 2019, Indian Association for the Cultivation of Science.72.10.Bg; 72.25.Ba; 75.76.+j; 81.07.Nb; Conductance states; Magnetic features; Molecular junctions; Ruthenium complex wireAl-Owaedi, O.A., Milan, D.C., Oerthel, M.-C., Bock, S., Yufit, D.S., Howard, J.A.K., (2016) Organometallics, 35, p. 2944; Aviram, A., Ratner, M.A., (1974) Chemical Physics Letters, 29, p. 277; Bogani, L., Wernsdorfer, W., (2008) Nature Materials, 7, p. 179; Caneschi, A., (2015) D Gatteschi and F Totti Coordination Chemistry Reviews, 289-290, p. 357; Cao, L., Yuan, L., Yang, M., Nerngchamnong, N., Thompson, D., Yu, X., (2019) Nanoscale Adv., 1, p. 1991; Capozzi, B., Xia, J., Adak, O., Dell, E.J., Liu, Z.-F., Taylor, J.C., (2015) Nature Nanotechnology, 10, p. 522; Champagne, A.R., (2005) A N Pasupathy and D C Ralph Nano Letters, 5, p. 305; Christopher, M.F., Skon, S., Steven, W.B., Iain, M.G., (2008) M G-S Víctor and J L Colin Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter, 20, p. 022203; Dhirani, A., Lin, P.H., Guyot-Sionnest, P., (1997) R W Zehner and L R Sita The Journal of Chemical Physics, 106, p. 5249; Di Piazza, E., Boilleau, C., Vacher, A., Merahi, K., Norel, L., Costuas, K., (2017) Inorganic Chemistry, 56, p. 14540; Ding, W., Koepf, M., Koenigsmann, C., Batra, A., Venkataraman, L., Negre, C.F.A., (2015) Journal of Chemical Theory and Computation, 11, p. 5888; Emilio, A., Anglada, E., Diéguez, O., Gale, J.D., García, A., Junquera, J., (2008) Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter, 20, p. 064208; Feringa, B.L., van Delden, R.A., (2000) N Koumura and E M Geertsema Chemical Reviews, 100, p. 1789; Ferrer, J., Lambert, C.J., García-Suárez, V.M., Manrique, D.Z., Visontai, D., Oroszlany, L., (2014) New Journal of Physics, 16, p. 093029; Gantenbein, M., Wang, L., Al-jobory, A.A., Ismael, A.K., Lambert, C.J., Hong, W., (2017) Scientific Reports, 7, p. 1794; Geddes, N.J., (2004) J R Sambles and A S Martin Advanced Materials for Optics and Electronics, 5, p. 305; Haiss, W., Wang, C., Grace, I., Batsanov, A.S., Schiffrin, D.J., Higgins, S.J., (2006) Nature Materials, 5, p. 995; Han, H., Zhang, Y., Wang, N., Samani, M.K., Ni, Y., Mijbil, Z.Y., (2016) Nature Communications, 7, p. 11281; Ismael, A.K., Al-Jobory, A., (2017) I Grace and C J Lambert The Journal of Chemical Physics, 146, p. 064704; Jones, N.D., (1997) M O Wolf and D M Giaquinta Organometallics, 16, p. 1352; Khoo, K.H., Chen, Y., (2015) S Li and S Y Quek Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics, 17, p. 77; Kim, J.M., Beebe, C., Olivier, S., Rigaut, D., Touchardkushmerick, J.G., (2007) J.

The objects of this research is to study the structural behaviour of the branching columns and how it effects on the form-finding. These branching columns are experimentally tested and preparation tables to assist with design of it. Experimental work was carried out on the seventeen specimens. All specimens have been tested under static load then evaluated for maximum failure load, maximum vertical displacement and failure mode. The studied variables are the ratio of horizontal spacing between branches to total width of specimen, number of branches and number of branching level. The results showed that when the ratio between the width of the specimen and the overall width was increased, failure load and buckling load was decreased and maximum vertical displacement was increased. When the number of branches increases, the failure load increases slightly, with the vertical displacement increasing. The failure load, buckling load decreased and the vertical displacement greatly increased as the number of branching levels increases. All specimens have failed with buckling mode, and had less failure load and buckling load than the reference specimen. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Iasef, R., Mario, S., Tree-inspired dendriforms and fractal-like branching (2014) Frontier of Architecture Research, pp. 2095-2635; Ludwig, G., (2017) The Work of Frei Otto; Von, B., A geometric comparison of branching structures in tension and compression versus minimal paths (2007) Proceeding of Iass University Iuav of Venice; Wu, Y., Zhang, J., Cao, Z., Form-finding analysis and engineering application of branching structures (2011) J Build Structure, 32; Jeffrey, H., Walter, H., Werner, S., A design tool for spatial tree structures (2009) Journal of the International Association for Shell and Spatial Structures: J.

This interest was due topatients researchers, and the medical world seeking for effective solutions to their serious challenges, such as the need to repair or, replace, substitute organs or tissues. In current article, Rentato Panelli mathematical equation utilize to understand and track parameters refer to a physical significant, deformation nature and shape memory degree and of two types of bio-polymer derivative mixtures, Avicel 102 and Sodium Starch Glycolate (SSG). Panelli constants were stated by using combination of two, known, bio polymer in term of deformation and shape memory specifications to validate of the equation parameters to predict this characteristics for unknown materials which may be part of human body or cardiovascular artificial parts. Constants and coefficients for equation measured by applying low pressure ranging from 15 to 75 Mpa. The issues emerging from the findings relate specifically to depth in-die analysis. The most interesting findings was the Panelli equation parameters are perfectly valid in representing bio-polymer characteristics under stress. These parameters and characteristics are able to assess the features of the bio-polymer which sometimes become beyond the scope unless defined by using specific instrumentation. In addition, these parameters can decide the applied pressure that achieve particular density in the manufacturing conditions . These parameters determine process conditions that produce desired biomedical engineering application as bio ink for 3D printing, artificial organs, and drug delivery system which is difficult or rather impossible without use classical methods. © 2020 Institute of Physics Publishing.

Consequently, waste rubber is considered as one of the most waste materials that might cause environmental problems. Incorporating tires rubbers in concrete pavement has been widely studied as one of the promising and sustainable solutions to these current environmental problems. This paper explored the effect of replacing coarse aggregate with waste tires rubber according to their sieve sizes. Three replacement ratios were suggested to substitute the coarse aggregate in concrete of 5 wt. %, 10% and 15%. Two replacement techniques were chosen in order to investigate the rubber particle size. The results illustrated that the compressive strength reduced by 8.5, 51% for 5 to 15 % replacing from all particle sizes. While it shows lower percentage of 0.3 to 11%, 12 to 19% and 7 to 17% for replacing 5 to 15% from sieve #20 to #4.75, respectively. The dry density for all samples decreased slightly with increasing rubber percentage. Furthermore, water absorption ratios of the tested samples were comparable with the reference sample by replacing from each sieve separately. In contrast, it shows higher increase by replacing from all sieves. © 2020 Institute of Physics Publishing.

The study aimed to compare between E. coli isolates from genito-urinary tract infections in there carrying of some virulence genes. A complete of 42 E. coli isolates involved in current study involve 21 isolates from vaginal infections and 21 isolates from UTI, the frequency of virulence genes papC, iucD and fimH was detected by polymerase chain reaction using specific primers. The results revealed the frequency of papC, iucD and fimH genes were (33.3, 16.7 and 31.0) respectively with significant differences under p value < 0.05, the E. coli isolates from UTI showed 38.1, 14.3 and 33.3 % positive for each above gene, While the isolates from vaginal infections give a positive amplification results for papC, iucD and fimH genes in the percentage 28.6, 19 and 28.6 %, respectively with significant differences under p value < 0.05. But, there are no differences in the expression of these genes between the isolates from the above sources. Also, the results show correlation between the frequency of fimH from vagina with fimH of UTI and iucD from vagina with p-value 0.04 and 0.02 respectively. In conclusion, the presence of papC, iucD and fimH genes have the same percentages nearly between isolates from UTI and vaginal infections with the dominancy of papC and fimH when compared with iucD gene and this study suggestive that these E. coli isolates may came from the same source. © 2020, Advanced Scientific Research.

There are some complete reports that fully reveal the relationship of Aspergillus fungi by determining the percentage of toxins produced by this type of fungi or their frequency in feed, food, or even clinical specimens, as well as the effect of toxins secreted by fungi on people who have been exposed to these fungi. It was purified from clinical samples, which included sputum, edema, wiping, tissue parts of the lung and other samples such as serum. As an immunological study, in addition to samples of cereals, nuts and homemade cheeses, as well as some other foods and vegetables. In this review, research in scientific research engines was conducted through four science-based data bases using the following keywords (Aspergillus fungi and the toxins they produce) (diseases associated with Aspergillus fungi). Scientific criteria were adopted in this review, and 41 subjects were selected. The results were compared in these articles regarding the presence of mushrooms in Iraqi governorates such as Najaf, Dhi Qar and Basra, as well as the frequency of mushrooms in Iraq and some neighboring countries such as Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Egypt. And Syria during the period 2009-2018 these results were compared with the WHO reports and the permissible proportions in food and feed. It was found that the highest rate of fungi was in Iraq at approximately 89.5%, while in Syria the frequency of fungi was 86.6% isolated, and in Egypt and Jordan it was 70.67% 77.6%, respectively, while in Saudi Arabia the Arabian Peninsula was 50.56% less frequent. The high rate of fungi frequency in Iraq may be due to black storage of foodstuffs, which has led to a high rate of fungi frequency and an increase in the proportion of foodstuffs or in clinical samples, according to the materials under study. © 2020, Institute of Medico-Legal Publications.

The results of the study showed a significant increase (p≤05.0) in the concentration of cholesterol, triglycerides, low lipoprotein, and very low density lipoprotein compared with the control group, but the high density lipoprotein showed a significant decrease (p≤05.0) compared to the control group. As for the results of the hormone leptin, the study showed that there was a significant increase in the concentration of the hormone in hypertensive patients compared with healthy subjects. When calculating the linear correlation coefficient to clarify the relationship between the chemical variables, it was found that there is a significant direct correlation (between cholesterol and triglycerides and the hormone leptin) and there was a significant direct correlation between the hormone leptin and both (triglycerides and low density lipoprotein with high density lipoprotein). © 2020, Advanced Scientific Research.

The identification of Salmonella Typhi isolates were depended on colonial morphology and biochemical tests as a primary identification and The final identification was performed with API20 system, the automated VITEK-2 compact system and PCR technique, twenty six (13%) clinical isolates of Salmonella Typhi were isolated and the age the rate of Patients suffering from gall bladder diseases and infected with Salmonella Typhi; age (43-70 years) (50%) while this study appeared female is more susceptible than male for gall bladder diseases and infected with Salmonella Typhi and were (65.4%). All the 26 isolates of Salmonella Typhi were screened for their antibiotic resistance against 16 antibiotics of different classes using the (Vitek2). The results showed that all isolates were sensitive to the Tigraracycline and levofloxacin and whereas all isolates were resistances to Ampicillin and Cefazolin; the most prevalent pattern included resistance to Gentamycin, Ciprofloxacin,Amikacin, pipracillin/tazobactam and Cefoxitin (88,46%, 87%, 84.6%,80.7% and 80,7% respectively) Furthermore, many isolates were resistant to cefipime,ceftriaxone, ceftazidime,trimethoprim-sulphamethoxazole and Nitrofurantion (65.38%,61.5%,57.69%,42.3% and 23% respectively), the resistances to Imipenem were 19.2% of isolates while only 15.38% of isolates were resistances to ertapenem, 30.7% and 23% of isolates were intermedait to Nitrofurantion and Ciprofloxacin respectively. The percentage of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria was high more than (90%). All isolates of Salmonella Typhi had the ability to produce Vi antigen, which play a major role in their pathogenicity among gallbladder chronic infection. © 2020, Advanced Scientific Research.

Aim of the study: This study was conducted to evaluate the prevalence of nasal carriage of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus among food handlers working in restaurants and cafeterias, and to explore the antibacterial activity of cinnamon and ginger extracts against these bacteria. Material and Methods: A total of 125 nasal swabs were collected from healthy food handlers, Staphylococcus aureus, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) were detected using standard methods. The antibacterial activities of aqueous and ethanolic spice extracts were evaluated against MRSA by using agar well diffusion method. Results: of 125 nasal swabs, 40 (32%) isolates were Staphylococcus aureus, among which 30 (75%) isolates were MRSA. Both spice extracts showed potent antibacterial activity against MRSA. Conclusion: This study revealed a relatively high prevalence rate of MRSA nasal carriage among food handlers.. Cinnamon and ginger extracts had potent antibacterial activity toward MRSA, therefor can be used as a natural food preservatives and to treat infections caused by MRSA. © 2020, Advanced Scientific Research.

It have been noticed that exists in three forms. The previously mentioned forms are elementalor metallic (mercury), organic and inorganic mercury. Inorganic mercury can be converted microbiogically into organic form. The present paper has been focused on the genotoxicity and histopathological effect of mercuric chloride on Ctenopharyngodonidella (Grass carp). Basically, Ctenopharyngodonidella is one of the most important fish species according to FAO reports. Moreover, C. idella fry have been divided into four groups. The first Group was exposed to sublethal concentrations of 5 ppb, Second Group was exposed to 10 ppb of mercuric chloride and the third one was exposed to 15 ppb, on the other hand,the fourth Group was kept as unexposed control. Furthermore,A blood smear was done for micronuclei examination and gills and liver of the tested fish were obtained for histopathological study.A significant increase of micronucleus notched erythrocytes in fish exposure with HgCl2 than in the controls). The microscopic examination has shown different histological changes in the organs of the examined fish which has been exposed to mercuric chloride in comparison with control organs. © 2020, Indian Journal of Forensic Medicine and Toxicology.

The algae were isolated, cheaper, purified and propagated using agricultural (Chu-10) media for biochemical analyzes. The nutritional value of algae was studied by studying the chemical content of proteins, carbohydrates, fats and chlorophyll dye, as well as by knowing the value of protein digestion rate under normal growth conditions and under the influence of different concentrations of the pesticide. The results were shown using insecticide and concentrations ranging from (0-25) mg/L. The highest content of all chemical compounds was recorded at low concentration (0.5) mg / L (compared to other concentrations). © 2020 Plant Archives.

In addition used of Microorganisms as a biological assay to detect T-2 toxin in cereals and cereals products were also studied. Results show that T-2 toxin was detected by thin layer chromatography (TLC) was found in 3 out of 76 samples of cereals and cereals products. They were 2 of 18 corn samples (11.11 %) and 1 of corn ears samples (25%). T-2 toxin was not found in all other samples of cereals (wheat and barely) and cereal products (flour, bread and toasted corn). Through studying the possibility of using microorganisms as bioassay for detection of T-2 toxin, Saccharomyces cerevisiae showed more sensitivity to T-2 toxin compared with the E.coli and Bacillus subtilis in all concentrations and the detection limit for it was 5 ug/ disk. The type of carbohydrates source in culture media influenced the sensitivity of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to wards T-2 toxin. © 2020 Plant Archives.

PTPN22 (protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 22) encodes for LYP (lymphatic phosphatase) and it a central passive regulator for T lymphocyte activation. Recent studies have shown the link among gene of PTPN22 variants + 1858C > T and multiple autoimmune diseases. Present research was aimed for investigating the relationship among PTPN22 gene polymorphisms and SLE in southern Iraq. Present research involved 110 SLE patients and 70 as control group from healthy volunteers. Extracted genomic DNA and genotyping was done using (P C R – R F L P) polymerase chain reaction – restriction fragment length polymorphism method. The 1858 T allele frequency showed association (O R = 0.26, CI 95% = 0.14 to 0.48, p < 0.001 with SLE patients relative to control group. In conclusion. The frequency recorded in this analysis of PTPN22 R620W gene functional variable is among the highest in comparison With the other inhabitants of the world, the widespread prevalence of this variable in patients with SLE as compared to controls indicates its important contribution along with other factors to the conferral of SLE susceptibility. The frequency of 1858 T demonstrated a correlation allele in patients with SLE compared to control group in study population. Our study illustrated that there was no correlation between Genotype, Gender` and` Risks of SLE. There was, however a substantial correlation between Age` and Risks of SLE. © 2020, Advanced Scientific Research.

Models of river water were collected from three selected stations on the river to complete the study once per 1420 class with three replicates. The results of the present study showed that there is a situational variation in the specific composition of phytoplankton in the number of species, the number of species and the predominance of algal groups in different environmental conditions or indicators between the studied stations. A person (96) species (45) genus in the first station, (70) species belonging to (37) genera in the second station affected by the waste of sewage (non-treatment) and the person (88) species belonging to (39) genera at the third station, The diatoms are concentrated on the rest of the algae groups in the river water for all the studied stations. The greenish algae are followed by greenish green algae, followed by the two types of algae and the whip whales in the first and third plants. In the second plant, which is affected by the untreated sewage waste, And vegetable algae) place the other in the sequence of the dominance of phytoplankton, as the masters of some species of phytoplankton in the number of species in this plant, such as Cyclotella and Oscillatoria species and dominated some species, such as species Cyclotella meneghiniana and Navicula cryptocephala. The variation of the Jagard-type variant of the phytoplankton species identified in the current study shows a low proportion of the plant affected by untreated sewage waste and other studied plants. Biologics showed significant differences in the values of some environmental factors affecting the presence and diversity of phytoplankton such as water temperature, turbidity, light permeability, hydroxyl, nutrients (nitrate, nitrite and phosphates), dissolved oxygen and bio-oxygen requirement. © 2020 Alpha Publishers.

The stabilizers in their effect on cohesive soils can be divided into “stabilizers-hydrophobizators” and “stabilizers-hardeners”. The latter, unlike the former, not only reduce heaving processes during freezing of soils, but also sharply change their physical, mechanical, and water-physical parameters. It is possible to expand the boundary of the use of the stabilization method for cohesive soils (from sandy loam to clay with a plasticity number of 27) using a wide arsenal of modern materials, as well as the additional introduction of binders into the system. © 2020 Alpha Publishers.

Giardia is a widespread parasite related to human diarrhea and other types of mammals. The current study was conducted in Dhi Qar Governorate for the period from the beginning of August 2018 to the end of June 2019. The study included the collection of 550 samples of people with diarrhea were examined using direct-examination method, iodine dyeing method, and salt-floating method to reveal samples of the Giardia parasite. The aim of this study: determine Giardia isolates using the 18srRNA gene, determine the genotypes of G. lamblia in Dhi-Qar using Nested PCR technology based on amplificationTPI gene and then use PCR to detect the HSP70 gene in Giardia isolates. Materials and Methods: In this diagnostic case control study that performed in Thi-Qar governorate \ Iraq between 2018-2020, Serological tests were performed on 96 samples (48 patients and 48 control). This study used the enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA) to measure the amount of HSP70 in the blood. the presence of the HSP70 gene in feces in the diagnosis using the 18SrRNA gene for molecular diagnosis, using PCR for Giardia lamblia detection. The study also included knowledge of genotypes using the TPI gene and found to carry genotypes A. Then the genes were sent for comparison with the global strains in the gene bank, which confirmed the presence of new strains based the18SrRNA gene sequences. The match rate ranged between the studied models and the recorded species (100-99%) and the species was registered in the NCBI with the following accession numbers MN124152.1 and MN124153.1, MN124154.1, MN124155.1, MN124155. 1, MN124157.1, MN 124158.1, MN124159.1, MN124160.1, MN1241561.1. Results: The results of the current study showed that the number of samples infected with intestinal parasites is 256 ( 46.55%) pateints, while 294 (53.45%)pateints are with dieriathat dye to other caused.The study showed the presence of five types of intestinal parasites prevalent in Dhi Qar Governorate, Giardia lamblia by 18.75%, antimopia histolytica by 58.59%, entomopia coli by 5.46%, heminoles nana by 3.9% and Enterobius vermicularis and there is a good relation between presence of Giardia lamblia The amount of HSP70 in the blood shows an increase in the amount of protein in infected people (20.53% ng / ml) while in samples Control (4.069% ng / ml) and the stool. Conclusion: The current study shows that there is an increase in the rate of thermal shock protein in people with the parasite of Giardia lamblia as it showed the presence of a protein gene in the stools of the infected, also showed that the genetic model responsible for the infection in Dhi Qar province is model A. © 2020, Advanced Scientific Research.

A finite volume method with the k-" standard model is used to investigate the effects of step, Reynolds number and type of liquid on heat transfer enhancement. Three types of conventional fluids (water, ammonia liquid and ethylene glycol) with Reynolds numbers varying from 98.5 to 512 and three cases for different step heights at a constant heat flux (q = 2000W/m2) are examined. The top wall of the passage and the bottom wall of the upstream section are adiabatic, while the walls of both the first and second steps downstream are heated. The results show that the local Nusselt number rises with the augmentation of the Reynolds number, and the critical effects are seen in the entrance area of the first and second steps. The maximum average Nusselt number, which represents the thermal performance, can be seen clearly in case 1 for EG in comparison to water and ammonia. Due to the expanding of the passage, separation flow is generated, which causes a rapid increment in the local skin friction coefficient, especially at the first and second steps of the downstream section for water, ammonia liquid and EG. The maximum skin friction coefficient is detected in case 1 for water with Re = 512. Trends of velocities for positions (X/H1 = 2.01, X/H2 = 2.51) at the first and second steps for all the studied cases with different types of convectional fluids are indicated in this paper. The presented findings also include the contour of velocity, which shows the recirculation zones at the first and second steps to demonstrate the improvement in the thermal performance. © 2020 by the authors.Double backward-facing expanding channel; Finite volume method; Heat transfer; Thermal performanceAbbott, D.E., Kline, S.J., Experimental Investigation of Subsonic Turbulent Flow Over Single and Double Backward Facing Steps (1962) J.

Three types of microwave-assisted pretreatments of sago palm bark (SPB) were conducted for enzymatic hydrolysis, namely: microwave-sulphuric acid pretreatment (MSA), microwave-sodium hydroxide pretreatment (MSH), and microwave-sodium bicarbonate (MSB). The experimental design was done using a response surface methodology (RSM) and Box-Behenken Design (BBD). The pretreatment parameters ranged from 5-15% solid loading (SL), 5-15 min of exposure time (ET), and 80-800Wof microwave power (MP). The results indicated that the maximum total reducing sugar was 386 mg/g, obtained by MSA pretreatment. The results also illustrated that the higher glucose yield, 44.3 mg/g, was found using MSH pretreatment, while the higher xylose yield, 43.1 mg/g, resulted from MSA pretreatment. The pretreatment parameters MP, ET, and SL showed different patterns of influence on glucose and xylose yield via enzymatic hydrolysis for MSA, MSH, and MSB pretreatments. The analyses of the interactive effect of the pretreatment parameters MP, ET, and SL on the glucose yield from SPB showed that it increased with the highMPand longer ET, but this was limited by low SL values. However, the analysis of the interactive effect of the pretreatment parameters on xylose yields revealed that MP had the most influence on the xylose yield for MSA, MSH, and MSB pretreatments. © 2020 by the authors.Enzymatic hydrolysis; Glucose; Microwave-assisted pretreatment; Pretreatment parameters; Xylose9446900; Universiti Putra MalaysiaFunding: This research was funded by IPMS, grant number 9446900.Acknowledgments: The authors are grateful for the support of the University Putra Malaysia and the University of Thi-Qar for their financial support.Ethaib, S., Solid Waste Situation in Thi-Qar Governorate (2019) IOP Conference Series: Material Science Engineering;, , IOP Publishing: Bristol, UK, 584012023; Ethaib, S., Omar, R., Mazlina, M., Radiah, A., Syafiie, S., Harun, M.Y., Effect of microwave-assisted acid or alkali pretreatment on sugar release from Dragon fruit foliage (2016) Int.

Notably, the first month of life of these children. That a quarter to half deaths occur in the first 24 hours and that 75% of them occur in the first week. The study aims: determine the causes of neonatal mortality in Kut City. Methodology: A non-probability a convenience sample of (N=406) was collected through a review of NCUS records which were selected out from the main hospitals. The data were collected from a retrospective secondary data from death certificates, medical records and death records using the questionnaire deals with neonate age, gender, birth weight, and cause of death. Data are analyzed through the application of descriptive and inferential statistical data analysis approach that includes, frequencies and percentages; Chi-squared test. Results: The study results indicate that the (77.8%) of neonate aged less than five days and die. Regarding gender, most of them were male and their weight 1000-2000. There were a significant association between neonate age, and gender with the causes of their morbidity at p-value <0.05. Conclusion: A less than five days of life male neonate weighted 1000-2000 kg die by respiratory distress syndrome affected by age and their gender. Health care providers need to be trained on neonatal resuscitation. All nurses and doctors involved in obstetrics and neonatal care should be trained in at least immediate care of the newborn. © 2020, World Informations Syndicate.

The current study aimed to determine the immunological responses in patients infested with scabies who attended a private clinic in Al-Hussein general hospital in Thi-Qar province. The total white blood cell count, differential counts (lymphocytes, monocytes, neutrophils, eosinophils and basophils), the serum levels of IL-5 and IL-13 in were evaluated in all patients with scabies and compared with non-infested healthy individuals as a control group. The present study showed significant increase on the mean of total WBC in patients infested with scabies when compared with control (P≤ 0.05). A significant differences (P≤ 0.05) were recorded in the absolute leukocytes counts for patient infested with scabies when compared with control group except that for monocytes and basophils which were non-significant (P≤ 0.05) in our study. The results of study showed significant differences (P≤ 0.05) in the mean of IL-5 and IL-13 serum levels for the patient infested with scabies when compared with control. © 2020, World Informations Syndicate.

Materials and methods: This study in a design of a cross-sectional, 92 patients of lichen planus, were enrolled from those patients referred the outpatients clinic of section of dermatology and venereology in Merjan teaching hospital and Alhussein teaching hospital in Thi Qar, Iraq for a period extended from Jan. 2018 to Jan. 2019. Oral colchicine 1 g once daily was prescribed to every lichen planus patients in the study. Duration of therapy extended from one month to three months then follow up for another three months. Response to treatment was reported at every visit. Photographs were taken at both pre and post treatment visits. Results: Out of the entire 92 patients involved in the study, 4 patients withdrew from the study because of gastrointestinal side effects of colchicine, while 3 patients were missed to follow up thus were omitted from the study. Beyond the residual 85 patients 39 were males (46%) and 46 females (54%) (female to male ratio 1.18:1). Age of patients ranged from 19-56 years. The most common type of lichen planus was classical type followed by actinic lichen planus, oral lichen planus was the third in frequency, while lichen planopillaris was the fourth making hypertrophic variant of lichen planus as the least common clinical variant. Enhancement in lichen planus lesions was more noticeable and obvious in patients who were under colchicine therapy for prolonged interval (the full three months). Good improvement (<70% reduction in the severity of lichen planus lesions) was noted clinically in 55 patients forming (64.7%) of all patients in the study. Moderate response (30-70% improvement) was detected in 22 patients forming (25.8%) out of total patients. Otherwise poor response to colchicine therapy (less than 30% improvement in lichen planus lesions) was seen in 8 patients only forming (11.7%) out of all patients in this study. Conclusion: Colchicine seems to be effective drug, safe and good choice for those challenging cases of lichen planus. © 2020, Advanced Scientific Research.

Four polysaccharide biodegradable polymers (guar gum, pectin, starch, and chondroitin) were used which undergo enzymatic degradation in the colon to deliver the 5-ASA in the colon. Granules contain guar gum as biodegradable polymer and probiotic Lactobacillus fermentum were prepared by wet granulation method using different superdisintegrants, different ratio of gum to probiotics and different concentrations of coating material (shellac). The prepared granules were evaluated for flow properties using the compressibility index, also these granules were evaluated for its drug content, moisture content and in vitro drug release. The results showed that guar gum was the best biodegradable polymer, on the other hand Avicel PH-102 was the best superdisintegrant compared to others. The best ratio of gum to probiotics was 1:3 and the best concentration of coating material shellac was 10%. The results illusterated that the presence of bifidobacteria in the formulated granules coated with 10% shellac were able to retard the drug release for 6 hr then they released more than 80% of the drug in buffer of pH 6.8 at the end of 8th hour in the in vitro drug release studies. It can be concluded that the prepared granules of 5-ASA which contain guar gum and probiotic coated with 10% shellac have a good enteric property and may be used successfully for colon targeting to ensure maximum drug release at colon. © 2020, Advanced Scientific Research.

The study sample was made up of 150 patients in the hospital and the main purpose herein is to determine the effects of vitamin-E and its ability to stimulate sperm in patients with weakness. The main results obtained, there is a significantly decreasingP 0.05in the sperm-concentration that was evaluated in the post-activation stage in the laboratory, both in the treatment and the control-groups compared to the preactivation groups using Ferticuilt medium through the so-called mixing technique. The direct thing as we would mention pointing out is that there were no-statistically-significantly-differences in the estimated value with different concentrations of vitamin-E used. One of the significant and meaningful results is the spermatozoa motility ratio, as it is found that the spermatozoa-motility ratio and the degree of motility increased in a significant manner P 0.05 in both treatment and control-groups compared to the pre-activation groups by the aid of the above mentionedmedium and by direct-mixing-technique. We would like to point out that there were no-significant-differences in the values estimated by the different-concentrations of vitamin-E used, but it was observed that the results were preferred with sperm activation in the laboratory.

Two different nanofluids are considered. Nanoparticles made of aluminum oxide (Al2O3) and titanium oxide (TiO2) with volume concentrations varying from 0.005 to 0.02 have been examined. Reynolds number and heat flux varied from 10,000 to 40,000 and 1000 to 6000 W m−2, respectively. Area reduction ratios from 1 to 2 were studied in this research. For turbulence modeling, the SST k–ω model in a 3D domain was utilized. In order to validate the numerical results, Al2O3–water-based nanofluid was tested, and a great agreement was observed. It was noted that the maximum thermal performance enhancement was about 194.7% in an annular channel with an area reduction ratio of 2 compared with a straight pipe using water. The heat transfer enhancement is attributed to the downstream flow separation and recirculation region. It was noted that rising the volume concentration of the nanoparticles improves the heat transfer coefficient; this enhancement was about 26.9% (Al2O3) and 5.5% (TiO2). Also, the influence of the Reynolds number on the surface heat transfer coefficient augmentation is quantitatively reported in this paper. The maximum pressure drop was about 7.5% for Al2O3 and 5.9% for TiO2 nanofluid, compared with pure water at a reduction ratio of 2 at the highest Re value considered here. © 2020, Akadémiai Kiadó, Budapest, Hungary.Forced convection;

University of Basra, Basra, Iraq; Mushatet, K.S., Mech. Eng. Dept. University of Thi-qar, Nasseriya, IraqAn experimental and numerical study was done to discover the effect of insertion of twisted tapes of decreased tapered configurations inside a tube on thermal and hydrodynamic fields. Constant heat flux was supplied to the tube surface and the working fluid was the air which was flowed with turbulent flow of 10000 ≤ Re ≤ 40000. RNG k-ε turbulent model was used. The obtained results showed that there is no significant difference in thermal performance factor between some studied cases of inserting decreased tapered twisted tape and the case of inserting typical twisted tape. The obtained experimental data of Nusselt number, friction factor and thermal performance factor were described by Empirical correlations. © 2020Tapered; Thermal performance; Twisted tapeAir; Heat flux; Working fluids; Empirical correlations; Experimental and numerical studies; Flow and heat transfer; Hydrodynamic field; Tapered; Thermal Performance; Thermal performance factors; Twisted tapes; Heat transfer performanceEiamsa-ard, S., Promvonge, P., Performance assessment in a heat exchanger tube with alternate clockwise and counter-clockwise twisted-tape inserts (2010) Int.

Microwave-assisted pretreatment was found to be a good alternative of conventional heating pretreatment of acid or alkali due to its direct heating of sample which reduce the energy consumption. The present study aims to evaluate the effect of using very diluted solvent (acid and alkali) on monomeric sugar yield during microwave-assisted pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass (sago palm bark wastes). The changes of the surface structure of untreated and pretreated lignocellulosic biomass were detected using SEM analysis. Three solvents were employed at three concentrations (0.01, 0.05 and 0.1 N). The solvents that utilized in the microwave-assisted pretreatment were sulphuric acid (MA), sodium hydroxide (MH) and sodium bicarbonate (MB) and compared with distilled water (MW). Sago palm bark (SPB) was soaked in these solvents as a substrate at 5% w/v and subjected to microwave power at 800 W in a modified household microwave oven for 5 minutes. Immersing feedstock in distilled water and heating using microwave heating released 5.32 mg/g of monomeric sugar. Highest yield of monomeric sugar was found using 0.1N H2SO4 which yielded 10.28 mg/g during. Applying the pretreatment using the similar concentrations of NaOH and NaHCO3 released 9.35 and 4.31 mg/g of monomeric sugar, respectively. Decreasing chemical solvent level from 0.1 to 0.05 and 0.01 N shows a negative influence on sugar yield for MA and MH pretreatment while MB pretreatment displays a positive effect by extracting some useful components such as xylose. © 2020 Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Assisted pretreatment;

In this study, a fish waste was subjected to approximate analysis to determine the nutritional composition includes protein, lipid, and carbohydrates as well as moisture and ash content. The fish waste included scales, fins, and bones isolated from Cyprinus carpi fish samples. The fish samples were divided into three samples groups and named G1, G2, and G3.The results showed high protein content in fish waste and the highest value 27.3 % found in bones (G3). The highest value of lipid content also was recorded in bones 7%. The higher moisture content was detected in scales parts 73% accompanied with a significant difference (P-value <0.05) in the scales moisture contents among the three fish waste groups. In addition the results revealed that the protein and lipid content increased with increasing weight and size of fish. In general, this study presents a high nutritional value of fish waste, providing another a viable source for sustainable food industry. © 2020 Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Fish waste; Lipid; Nutritional Composition; ProteinEthaib, S., Omar, R., Mazlina, M., Radiah, A., Syafiie, S., Harun, M.Y., Effect of microwave-assisted acid or alkali pretreatment on sugar release from dragon fruit foliage (2016) International Food Research Journal., 23, pp. S149-154; Ethaib, S., Omar, R., Kamal, S.M., Biak, D.A., Microwave-assisted pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass: A review (2015) Journal of Engineering Science and Technology., 2 (1), pp. 97-109; Ethaib, S., Omar, R., Mazlina, M.K.S., Radiah, A.B.D., Syafiie, S., Development of a hybrid pso-ann model for estimating glucose and xylose yields for microwave-assisted pretreatment and the enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass (2018) Neural Computing and Applications., 30 (4), pp. 1111-1121; Rahimi, M.A., Omar, R., Ethaib, S., Mazlina, M.S., Biak, D.A., Aisyah, R.N., Microwave-assisted extraction of lipid from fish waste (2017) IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering., 206 (1), p. 012096; Ethaib, S., Omar, R., Mustapa Kamal, S.M., Awang Biak, D.R., Syam, S., Harun, M.Y., Microwave-assisted pretreatment of sago palm bark (2017) Journal of Wood Chemistry and Technology., 37 (1), pp. 26-42; Ethaib, S., Omar, R., Mazlina, M.K.S., Radiah, A.B.D., Syafiie, S., Microwaveassisted dilute acid pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis of sago palm bark (2016) BioResource., 11 (3), pp. 5687-5702; Sanmartín, E., Arboleya, J.C., Villamiel, M., Moreno, F.J., Recent advances in the recovery and improvement of functional proteins from fish processing by-products: Use of protein glycation as an alternative method (2009) Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety., 8 (4), pp. 332-344; Annathai, A., Shakila, R., Sa, S., Proximate and major mineral composition of 23 medium sized marine fin fishes landed in the thoothukudi coast of India (2014) Nutrition & Food Sciences., 4 (1), pp. 1-7; Arason, S., Karlsdottir, M., Valsdottir, T., Slizyte, R., Rustad, T., Falch, E., Jakobsen, G., Maximum resource utilization value added fish by-products (2010) Nordic Innovation Centre., pp. 35-46. , 04275; Shaviklo, G.R., Thorkelsson, G., Arason, S., Kristinsson, H.G., Sveinsdottir, K., The influence of additives and drying methods on quality attributes of fish protein powder made from saithe (pollachiusvirens (2010) Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture., 90 (12), pp. 2133-2143; Lu, H.M., Continuous lactic acid fermentation of haddock hydrolysate (2004) J.

The central layers were the metamaterial and a normal material in the core of waveguide. The dispersion relation, field formulas, power formulas and the power flux formula has been derived. The waveguide property was controlled by changing the permittivity and permeability and thicknesses of the layers. The presence of metamaterial contributes to cut-off the mode TEo and other modes were propagated to backward. The stopping light was determined using the power flux value. However, the negative values of it refer to the backward direction of propagation. Furthermore the stopped light can be achieved in a certain value of power. Our results found it is good for different applications in communication and controlling. © 2017 Sissa Medialab Srl.

These characteristics led many specialists to study and develop this type of renewable energy. This research paper includes simulations for the design of single-diodes solar cells under the influence of different temperatures and saturation conditions to demonstrate the efficacy of the solar cell. It is also known that the solar cell must be linked to a power controller and here it will be used as an artificial neural network (ANN) technology which is the nonlinear autoregressive moving average (NARMA) by using MATLAB program to control the output power of the PV cell. Hence, the simulation results will show the comparison with and without using the NARMA-L2 controller as a maximum power point tracking (MPPT). © 2020 IEEE.artificial neural networks technique ANN; Matlab simulation; maximum power point tracking MPPT; NARMA-L2 Control; photovoltaic panel PVAutoregressive moving average model; Controllers; Gaussian noise (electronic); MATLAB; Maximum power point trackers; Photoelectrochemical cells; Photovoltaic cells; Power control; Solar energy; Solar power generation; Low maintenance; Maximum Power Point Tracking; Model and simulation; Nonlinear auto-regressive moving averages; Power controllers; Renewable energies; Research papers; Saturation conditions; Solar cellsVeerachary, M., Power tracking for nonlinear pv sources with coupled inductor sepic converter (2005) IEEE Transactions on Aerospace and Electronic Systems, 41 (3). , July; Altas, I.H., Sharaf, A.M., A photovoltaic array simulation model for matlab-simulink gui environment (2007) IEEE, Clean Electrical Power, International Conference on Clean Electrical Power (ICCEP '07), , June 14-16, Ischia, Italy; Chowdhury, S., Chowdhury, S.P., Taylor, G.A., Song, Y.H., Mathematical modeling and performance evaluation of a stand-alone polycrystalline pv plant with mppt facility (2008) IEEE Power and Energy Society General Meeting-Conversion and Delivery of Electrical Energy in the 21st Century, , July 20-24, Pittsburg, USA; Najd, A.H., Sari, F., Simulation and control of photovoltaic panel using nonlinear autoregressive moving average narma controller (2019) Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 1279 (1). , July; Nema, S., Nema, R.K., Agnihotri, G., Matlab / simulink based study of photovoltaic cells / modules / array and their experimental verification (2010) International Journal of Energy and Environment, 1 (3), pp. 487-500; Celikel, R., Aydogmus, O., Narma-l2 controller for singlelink manipulator IEEE International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Data Processing, , Malatya, Turkey; Jung, J.-H., Ahmed, S., Model construction of singlecrystalline photovoltaic panels for real-time simulation (2010) IEEE Energy Conversion Congress & Expo, , September 12-16, Atlanta, USA; Nema, S., Nema, R.K., Agnihotri, G., Matlab / simulink based study of photovoltaic cells / modules / array and their experimental verification (2010) International Journal of Energy and Environment, 1 (3), pp. 487-500; Bagher, A.M., Vahid, M.M.A., Mohsen, M., Types of solar cells and application (2015) American Journal of Optics and Photonics, 3 (5), pp. 94-113; Banu, I.V., Istrate, M., (2012) Modeling and Simulation of Photovoltaic Arrays, pp. 161-166. , Buletinul AGIR; Elobaid, L.M., Abdelsalam, A.K., Zakzouk, E.E., Artificial neural network-based photovoltaic maximum power point tracking techniques a survey (2015) IET Renewable Power Generation, pp. 1043-1063; Fayeez, A.T.I., Literature review of battery-powered and solarpowered wireless sensor node (2015) Asian Research Publishing Network-Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, pp. 671-677; Sharma, P., Narma-l2 controller for five-area load frequency control (2014) Research Journal of Engineering and Technology, pp. 121-127; Sharma, P., Narma-l2 controller for five-area load frequency control (2014) Research Journal of Engineering and Technology, pp. 121-127Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.2nd International Conference on Electrical, Communication and Computer Engineering, ICECCE 202012 June 2020 through 13 June 20201626849781728171166EnglishInt.

Specifically, we consider two populations of excitatory neurons where each population is responsible for a direction of movement, say, right and left. Both the excitatory neuron populations are connected to an inhibitory neurons population. Each excitatory population wants to take control of the movement. We formulate a game theoretic view of this competition. Specifically, we assume that the activity level of each neuronal population is quantized in to two levels. We transform the dynamical system model that exists in the literature, see for example [1], for this problem to create the game utilities. We characterize, through the replicator dynamics of the evolutionary game, the evolutionary stable strategies and find conditions under which they hold. Finally, we use the phase portrait to show the evolution of the evolutionary stable strategies from different initial conditions. We find that mixed strategies cannot be a part of the game solution. In addition, we find that the case of no or low activity is the worst case and there are no initial conditions or neurons coordination that can overcome it. © 2020 IEEE.Evolutionary Game Theory; Inhibitory Neurons; Neuronal Population; Spiking Neural Networks; Stability AnalysisDecision making; Dynamical systems; Game theory; Neural networks; Dynamic interaction; Dynamical system modeling; Evolutionary stable strategies; Excitatory neurons; Inhibitory neurons; Initial conditions; Neuronal populations; Replicator dynamics; NeuronsGerstner, W., Kistler, W.M., Naud, R., Paninski, L., (2014) Neuronal Dynamics: From Single Neurons to Networks and Models of Cognition, , Cambridge University Press; Georgopoulos, A.P., Schwartz, A.B., Kettner, R.E., Neuronal population coding of movement direction (1986) Science, pp. 1416-1419; Roitman, J.D., Shadlen, M.N., Response of neurons in the lateral intraparietal area during a combined visual discrimination reaction time task (2002) Journal of Neuroscience, 22 (21), pp. 9475-9489; Wang, Y., Gupta, A., Toledo-Rodriguez, M., Wu, C.Z., Markram, H., Anatomical, physiological, molecular and circuit properties of nest basket cells in the developing somatosensory cortex (2002) Cerebral Cortex, 12 (4), pp. 395-410; Schuster, A., Yamaguchi, Y., Application of game theory to neuronal networks (2010) Advances in Artificial Intelligence, 2010, p. 2; Seung, H.S., Zung, J., (2017) A Correlation Game for Unsupervised Learning Yields Computational Interpretations of Hebbian Excitation, Anti-hebbian Inhibition, and Synapse Elimination; Stier, J., Gianini, G., Granitzer, M., Ziegler, K., Analysing neural network topologies: A game theoretic approach (2018) Procedia Computer Science, 126, pp. 234-243; Zareh, M., Manshaei, M.H., Adibi, M., Montazeri, M.A., Neurons and astrocytes interaction in neuronal network: A game-theoretic approach (2019) Journal of Theoretical Biology, 470, pp. 76-89; Sandholm, W.H., (2010) Population Games and Evolutionary Dynamics, , MIT press; Basar, T., Olsder, G.J., (1995) Dynamic Noncooperative Game Theory, 200; Hofbauer, J., Sigmund, K., (1988) The Theory of Evolution and Dynamical Systems: Mathematical Aspects of Selection, , Cambridge University Press; Zeeman, E.C., Population dynamics from game theory (1980) Global Theory of Dynamical Systems, pp. 471-497. , Springer; Sigmund, K., Evolutionary game dynamics: American mathematical society short course (2011) American Mathematical Society, 69; Hofbauer, J., Sigmund, K., (1998) Evolutionary Games and Population Dynamics, , Cambridge University Press; Khalil, H.K., (1996) Nonlinear Systems, 3. , Prentice hall New Jersey; Ode Software for Matlab, , https://math.rice.edu/_dfield/#8.0, accessed: 2019-12-09Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.2nd International Conference on Electrical, Communication and Computer Engineering, ICECCE 202012 June 2020 through 13 June 20201626849781728171166EnglishInt.

The whole edifice of contemporary science stands on the shoulders satellite communication interconnected theories. The ionosphere has crude arguments. The ionosphere is a giant layer that extends from 80 to 1000 km above Earth. The ionosphere contains free electrons and ions. These particles contribute to disturb the propagation of the electromagnetic waves that pass through the ionosphere. These particles could refract or disperse the electromagnetic waves that pass through the ionosphere. This paper will study the impact of the reflection and the absorption in the ionosphere for the propagation of the electromagnetic waves and what is the relation among them. The comprehension of absorption of the ionosphere is coming from VOACAP model. VOACAP model is an indirect track to extract the estimation values of the absorption in the ionosphere. © 2020 IEEE.Absorption; Ionosphere; Reflection; VOACAP modelCircular waveguides; Ionosphere; Ionospheric measurement; Satellite communication systems; Free electron; High frequency HF; Natural world; Satellite communications; Electromagnetic wave reflectionGoldsmith, A., (2005) Wireless Communications, , Cambridge university press; Mokhtar, N.M., Ethaib, S., Omar, R., Effects of microwave absorbers on the products of microwave pyrolysis of oily sludge (2018) J.

Ebola infection is viewed as a feature of the Filoviridae family (filovirus). Ebola infection comprises of five unmistakable species: Bundibugyo (BDBV), Zaire (EBOV), Sudan (SUDV), Reston (RESTV), Taï Forest (TAFV). In this paper, after sorting Ebola viruses-based type, we divide Ebola virus into two groups: severe and non-severe. Zaire and Sudan belong to most severe virus in terms of fatality.While Bundibugyo, Tai Forest and Reston are categorized as non fatal group. We found that 1-78 and 2974-3018 ranges are the most common nucleotide parts for severe group (Zaire and Sudan). And this range belongs to the NP range in Ebola virus. We also found that three least dangerous viruses in non-severe group have high nucleotide similarity with three match ranges. And finally, no strong similarity exists between the most severe virus Zaire and the least severe virus Reston. © 2020 Alpha Publishers.

Water and chloride contents in concrete are highly variable in RC structures in real-world hostile environments, meaning that characterisation of their coupled effects on concrete electrical resistivity is important. The currently available models are investigated in this paper. As all the current models are purely empirical, an improvement with a semi-empirical model is proposed. The improvement highlights the intrinsic linkage between concrete electrical resistivity and water content and the pore size distribution of concrete. The proposed model was tested using two sets of experimental data and was also compared with other two empirical models. © 2020 ICE Publishing.

Therefore, the purposes of this study were to determine the effects of exercise and abuse of synthetic anabolic steroids and food supplements on micronuclei frequency in buccal cells and 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) as markers for DNA damage. Methods: The study included one hundred males aged 17–44 years, distributed into five distinct groups including Group I: 20 bodybuilder individuals with AAS consumption, Group II: 20 bodybuilder individuals with diet supplement (proteins) consumption. Group III: 20 bodybuilders without AAS and diet supplement (proteins) consumption, Group IV: 20 football players without AAS and proteins consumption, and Group V 20 non-athletes without diet supplement or AAS consumption. Results: The mean age + standard deviation (SD) of groups I, II, III, IV and V were (27.00 ± 5.53, 27.85 ± 5.60, 29.70 ± 8.04, 22.35 ± 3.89 and 26.05 ± 6.42, respectively. The mean of BMI values was significantly different among groups (p <. 0001), being much higher for the group I (26.77 ± 1.64) than for group V (22.78 ± 1.53***). Notably, group I and II exhibited elevation in 8-OHdG concentration (3.19 ± 0.35 and 3.28 ± 1.66, respectively) compared to those from the other groups, not being statistically significant. In addition no statically difference was observed according to frequency of micronuclei in buccal cells. Conclusion: Our results outlined that exceeded usage of AAS or food supplement (proteins) exerted no increasing effects of oxidative DNA and/or chromosomal aberration accounting for serum 8-OHdG and micronuclei in buccal cells. These are possibly due to the adaptive responses such as up regulation of DNA repair systems and enhancement of the anti-oxidant capacity in highly-trained individuals. © 2020DNA damage; Exercise; Men; protein intake; Synthetic anabolic steroids8 hydroxydeoxyguanosine; anabolic agent; adolescent; adult; antioxidant activity; Article; athlete; body mass; cheek cell; chromosome aberration; controlled study; dietary supplement; DNA damage; DNA repair; drug abuse; enzyme linked immunosorbent assay; exercise; football player; health status; human; male; micronucleus; physical activity; priority journal; protein intake; questionnaire; underweight; upregulationAl-Aubaidy, H.A., Jelinek, H.F., 8-Hydroxy-2-deoxy-guanosine identifies oxidative DNA damage in a rural prediabetes cohort (2010) Redox Rep., 15 (4), pp. 155-160; Arazi, H., Mohammadjafari, H., Asadi, A., Use of anabolic androgenic steroids produces greater oxidative stress responses to resistance exercise in strength-trained men (2017) Toxicol.

This study experimentally investigated the effects of various configurations of inlet restrictors (IRs) on the thermal hydraulic performance of flow boiling in a microchannel heat sink, which has a single rectangular microchannel with an aspect ratio of 13.12 and a hydraulic diameter of the 708 µm. The experiments were carried out for the microchannel with three designs of inlet restrictors: one-slot opening (1IR), three-slot openings (3IR), and five-slot openings (5IR), for mass fluxes of 32.68, 81.29 and 144 kg/m2 s, respectively. The effects of the various IRs on the CHF, average HTC and pressure drops of the microchannel heat sink were analyzed. The results showed that all test cases with IRs improved the CHF performance of the flow boiling microchannel heat sink, where the 5IR case works best at low mass flux and the 1IR case works best at high mass flux. The results also illustrated that the IRs reduce the HTC at low mass flux, but improve the HTC at high mass flux and heat flux. IRs always exhibit higher pressure drop penalties. This study also revealed the optimum design for microchannel with IRs, which depends on the operational parameters (e.g., mass flux and heat flux) of the microchannel heat sink. © 2020Critical heat flux; Flow boiling instabilities; Heat transfer enhancement; Inlet restrictor; Microchannel heat transfer; microgapsAspect ratio; Drops; Heat sinks; Heat transfer coefficients; Microchannels; Pressure drop; Experimental investigations; Flow boiling instabilities; Heat transfer and pressure drop; Heat transfer coefficient (HTC); Heat Transfer enhancement; Inlet restrictor; Microgaps; Thermal-hydraulic performance; Heat fluxMinistry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, MHESRThe authors would like to gratefully acknowledge the Mechanical Engineering department at the University of South Carolina for the lab facilities, and Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research-MOHESR Republic of Iraq.Mudawar, I., Two-Phase micro-channel heat sinks: theory, applications and limitations (2011) ASME/JSME 2011 8th Therm.

The mechanism of electron mobility through DNA is important to study DNA-based molecular electronics in nano-bioelectronics. In this study, the influence of number of base pairs on transmission probability, conductance and current for a DNA system has been investigated by using a tight-binding model. Two DNA sequences, (G/C) and (A/T), was studied using the steady state formalism. One active region of DNA molecules assumed to be represented by a fishbone model. The behavior of transmission spectrum (T) was discussed for both DNA sequences as a function of the number of base pairs (N). In addition, a nonlinear behavior of the current (I) was found by studying I-N curves. Further, the resistance-dependent of number of base pairs is also discussed to describe the resistance behavior and values for both DNA sequences. It demonstrates that the resistance-dependent of number of base pairs represented by nonlinear dependent with small different in its values, and the two DNA sequences gives different R-N curve characteristics. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.DNA; Electron transport; Fishbone model; Tight-binding modelAluminum alloys; DNA; Electron transport properties; Genes; Electron transport; Genetic information; Nonlinear behavior; Resistance behaviors; Theoretical investigations; Tight binding model; Transmission probabilities; Transmission spectrums; DNA sequencesMinistry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, MHE&SRWe thank Prof. Jenan Majeed AL-Mukh and Prof. Shakier Ibraheem Easa from Basrah University for useful discussions.

General formula for the transmission probability for electron transfer through Guanine Molecule is derived. Guanine molecule is assumed to be as one active region connected between two leads. In the transmission calculation, three different locations of the onsite energy were noticed due to the change of the gate voltages applied on the molecule. Also, the (I-V) curve characteristics of Guanine was obtained by using tight binding model and steady state. The current as a function of gate voltage, that is varying between-4 to 4 eV, is also investigated. It is found that the current arises and vanishes at different gate voltage values to show gate switching states. Further, the relationship between different gate voltage values and different bias voltage values was presented to show the logic gate behavior. Moreover, conductance as a function of temperature study was stated. It shows two current behaviors, independent and strong dependence on temperature value, that changes the leads energy. These properties can be effectively used for molecular electronic devices. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.DNA-based molecule; Electronic properties; Guanine molecule; logic GateAluminum alloys; Electronic properties; Positive ions; Threshold voltage; Current behaviors; Electron transfer; Molecular electronic device; Strong dependences; Temperature values; Tight binding model; Transmission calculations; Transmission probabilities; MoleculesMinistry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, MHE&SRWe thank Prof. Jenan Majeed AL-Mukh and Prof. Shakier Ibraheem Easa from Basrah University for useful discussions.

The film thickness is expressed as a function of flow rate. Design/methodology/approach: Further, sensitivity of both film thickness and flow rate to the length of the rotating heat pipe can now be investigated using the explicit expressions presented here. Findings: To make it easier for practical application, an approximate solution is presented on top of the exact solution. Originality/value: Both approximate and exact solutions are then applied to note that results are in good agreement when compared to those available in the literature. © 2019, Emerald Publishing Limited.Analytical solution; Heat and mass transfer; Rotating heat pipesFilm thickness; Liquid films; Approximate solution; Closed form solutions; Design/methodology/approach; Exact solution; Of liquid films; Rotating heat pipe; Thermohydraulics; Heat pipesUniversiti Malaya, UMConflict of interest: The authors declare that there is no conflict of interest regarding the publication of this paper.

Dept, University of Thi-qar, Nasseriya, IraqIn this work, the effects of new tapered configurations of twisted tape on thermal and hydrodynamic fields in a heated tube were studied experimentally and numerically to determine the best configuration that provides the highest thermal performance factor. The tube surface was under constant heat flux and air was chosen as the working fluid, with a turbulent flow of 10,000 ≤ Re ≤ 40,000. The RNG k-ε turbulent model was used in the numerical part. For the first time, the tapered region was varied in its length (l) and starting width (SW), which represents the novelty of this work. The maximum increase recorded in the experimental and numerical results was 75% and 100% respectively for the Nusselt number, and 220% and 226% respectively for the friction factor. Similarly, the maximum experimental and numerical thermal performance factor was 1.19 and 1.37, respectively. Subsequently, the experimental data obtained for the Nusselt number, friction factor, and thermal performance factor were described using empirical correlations. © 2020Tapered; Thermal performance factor; Twisted tapeFriction; Heat flux; Nusselt number; Turbulent flow; Working fluids; Constant heat flux; Empirical correlations; Flow and heat transfer; Hydrodynamic field; Numerical investigations; Tapered; Thermal performance factors; Twisted tapes; AirAI-Fahed, S., Chakroun, W., Effect of tube-tape clearance on heat transfer for fully developed turbulent flow in a horizontal isothermal tube (1996) Int.

The influence of the first, second and third order of non-linear dispersion have also been introduced. All linear and nonlinear dispersions parameters are formulated as functions of the normalized frequency. The effects of linear and nonlinear dispersions induce many temporally and spectrally variations that affect the pulse shape and spectrum. The effects of the fourth order linear dispersion and the third order nonlinear dispersion have been added here. The results showed that they have both temporal and spectral effects that cannot be neglected under certain circumstances. © 2020 Author(s).metamaterial; nonlinear dispersions; ultra-short pulsesAgranovich, V.M., Shen, Y.R., Baughman, R.H., Zakhidov, A.A., Linear and nonlinear wave propagation in negative refraction metamaterials (2004) Phys.

The results showed that the prepared and deposited thin films on glass and micro substrates have a crystalline structure closer to amorphous while the prepared film on the Silicon wafer substrate have polycrystalline structure, the results of SEM showed that the surface of the films is usually homogeneous, dense and free from islands and voids. Also, the roughness of NiPc films were determined using AFM technique and the analysis of the results showed that the grain size increases with increasing of thickness. Optical measurement using UV-Visible Spectra showed that the NiPc thin films have a direct energy gap (Eg) and the value of the energy gap has increased with increasing thickness. Sensing measurements showed the highest value of sensitivity for ethanol was (55%) at a temperature of 200 ° C. © 2020 Author(s).Nickel Phthalocyanines; Organic semiconductor; structural and optical propertiesKadish, K.M., Smith, K.M., Guilard, R., (2003) The Porphyrin Handbook: Volume 20 / Phthalocyanines: Structural Characterization, 20. , Editors, vol; Pustelny, T., Ignac-Nowicka, J., Jarzabek, B., Burian, A., Optical investigations concerning layered metalphthalocyanine nanostructures affected by NO2 (2004) Opt.

In this paper, the pressure and the velocity distributions on the surface of the vehicle’s body under the influence of wind have been studied at different angles (35°, 90°, and 125°). The parameters that affect the steering system of the self-driving vehicle have been studied, affected by another vehicle (SUV) using the CFX ANSYS (18.2) and the SOLIDWORKS simulation programs. The torque and the effort have been calculated on the steering system by using the mathematical equation in the MATLAB program. The results have showed the highest torque and the effort values when the wind has faced the car at an angle of 125 degrees and the highest drag value when the vehicle has been in front of the SUV. The maximum pressure distribution is recorded when the air is 90 degrees. The highest effort is on the steering wheel when the SUV is next to the vehicle. © 2020 Praise Worthy Prize S.r.l.-All rights reserved.Control of Steering System; Drag Force; Self-Driving VehicleInallu, Abolfazl Tahmasebi, (2014), MSc.

In this article, the power quality in three phase system is maintained with a good performance by eliminating the harmonics in the utility power supply by using SAF. The SAF is acting as a current source that injects equal harmonic components but opposite at the PCC. The MATLAB-Simulink toolbox is used to implement SAF with different control techniques, which are the modified instantaneous current components (method, and the instantaneous active and reactive power (PQ) method for controlling the harmonics. The compensation is conducted by using PI based controller. The results of these two methods are obtained and compared to show which one can provide the best power quality. © 2020 Alpha Publishers.Active Power Filter (APF); Harmonic reduction; Instantaneous current and Power control; Point of Common Coupling (PCC); Power Electronic Devices (PED); Power quality; Shunt Active Filter; Shunt Active Filter (SAF)Sasaki, H., Machida, T., A New Method to Eliminate AC Harmonic by Magnetic Compensation Consideration on Basic Design (1971) IEEE Transactions on Power Apparatus and System, 90 (5), pp. 2009-2019; Singh, B., Chandra, A., Al-Haddad, K., A review of active filters for power quality improvement (1999) IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics, 46 (5), pp. 1-12; Morgan, L.A., Dixon, J.W., Wallace, R.R., A three phase active power filter operating with fixed switching frequency for reactive power and current harmonics compensation (1995) IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics, 42 (4), pp. 402-408; Akagi, H., Watanabe, E.

The energy assessment tools such as a model for forecasting building energy consumption is based on outdoor thermal conditions, the outdoor conditions are highly nonlinear in real life cannot be represented by linear differential equations and have an uncertain disturbance nature. This paper contrives a novel nonlinear model structure to cope with such difficulty, which is composed of two hybrid nonlinear forms, Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy system (TS-FS) and Neural Networks’ Weights. Such a structure has many advantages, including suitability for multi-layer implementations like an integrated eight-dimension net of parameters and weights which represents model input-output relations of a nonlinear system. The Gauss-Newton algorithm is used to tune model weights and parameters for the fitting of nonlinear regression of clusters model to data. The main feature of the proposed model is to express the dynamic conditions of the outdoor thermal environment of each fuzzy implication by a cluster functions model and thus promote the prediction performance. The overall proposed model is tested on the training and validation of multizone then compared with the RLF model. The corresponding results show that a better hybrid modelling and uncertainty mitigation which is achieved without significant loss of prediction accuracy. © 2020 Elsevier LtdMulti-climatic zone model;

This study aimed to estimate the frequency of intestinal parasites in 366 children aged 2 to 15 years referred to the main pediatric health center of Lorestan Province, Iran. Methods: Microscopic analysis was performed on 366 stool samples. We applied direct smear, scotch tape, and formol-ether methods. Moreover, a questionnaire was filled in by parents or guardians of the children. Results: The results showed that 36 children (9.8%) were infected with at least one or more intestinal parasites. The most prevalent parasites were Enterobius vermicularis (6.8%), Hymenolepis nana (1.9%), and Ascaris lumbricoides (0.55%), in the order of their appearance. Statistical analysis showed that several risk factors were significantly associated with the prevalence intestinal helminthic parasites, including male sex (OR = 2.9; 95% CI: 1.2–6.2; p < 0.05), residing in rural regions (OR = 4.2; 95% CI: 2.1–10.6; p < 0.001), no handwashing habit before eating (OR = 5.2; 95% CI: 2.2–12.5; p < 0.001), and consuming raw or unwashed vegetables and fruits (OR = 4.8; 95% CI: 2.3–11.2; p < 0.001). Conclusion: The present study showed a high overall frequency of intestinal helminthic infections among the children in Lorestan province, Iran. The results of the risk factor analysis suggest that improving environmental hygiene and health education would be important for effective control of intestinal parasitic infections. © 2020Associated risk factors; Children; Helminthes; Intestinal infections; Iranformaldehyde; adolescent; Article; Ascaris lumbricoides; child; clinical article; controlled study; cross-sectional study; Enterobius vermicularis; environmental sanitation; feces analysis; female; food processing; hand washing; health education; helminthiasis; human; Hymenolepis nana; infection control; infection risk; intestine infection; intestine parasite; Iran; male; microscopy; parental consent; pediatric hospital; prevalence; questionnaire; raw food diet; rural area; sex ratio; smear; vegetableformaldehyde, 50-00-0Lorestan University of Medical Sciences, LUMS: 2017/233This study was supported by Lorestan University of Medical Sciences , Khorramabad, Iran (Research No: 2017/233 ).

In this study, we compared between two methods to create three dimensional cell cultures (spheroids) breast cancer (MCF7) by liquid marble and liquid overlay methods. Liquid marble allows to breast cancer cells to aggregate into spherical with regular morphology, compared to spheroids that created using a traditional method (liquid overlay).

L-1) and their interactions in the concentrations of photosynthesis pigments (chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, total chlorophyll and carotene) and nitrogen of tissue culture date palms leaves c.v. Barhi .This study aims to find out the effect of salicylic acid in improving the salinity tolerance of date palm offshoots c.v. Barhi which newly cultivated and produced from tissue culture. The results showed:Increasing of sodium chloride concentration in the growth media had a significant effect on the reduction of concentrations of (chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, total chlorophyll, carotenes and nitrogen), therefore the treatment of sodium chloride (24 ds. m-1) was recorded the lowest values of properties above compared to the control treatment.The effects of increasing salicylic acid concentrations has significantly increased the chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, total chlorophyll and nitrogen concentrations, however, the treatment of (75 mg. L-1) resulted the highest averages compared to control treatment.The interaction treatment between sodium chloride (8 ds. m-1) and salicylic acid(75 mg. L-1) had achieved a significant increase in the concentrations of carotene and nitrogen.The spray of date palm leaves with salicylic acid was contributed to decreased the effects of salt stress, therefore, increased the tolerance of date palm to the salt stress. © 2020.

The study concluded 255 fecal sampler (168 sample were collected from patient suffering from diarrhea and 82 sample from apparently healthy). The Aeromonas hydrophila isolates were identified depended on culture media and biochemical methods for I field A.hydrophila; the PCR technique used to detection thewhole forming Toxin (aerolysin) gene. The results revealed that 23 isolates of A. hydrophila were identified from diarrheal patients, while 18 isolates from apparently healthy. Aerolysin gene was detected in 9 isolates only. To determine the in vivo pathogenicity of A. hydrophila, forty two mice were used to detect LD50 value, then determined the histological changes of organs including intestine and liver were obtained for re-isolation and histopathological examination. Lethal dose of also demonstrated in mice was 0.9×1000000000. The microscopic examination of histopathological sections of intestine of infected mice after LD50 experiment showed that preserver of hyperplasia of lymphoid tissue with thickening in villi, congestion of central vein of liver, mild inflammation in periportal area, fatty changes and parenchymal cell of liver. © 2020.

This study focusing on HPV sperm infection and its effect on sperm DNA integrity and its impact on seminal fluid parameters and may it can help toclarify some reasons of idiopathic male infertility.The total number of males included in this study was (n=154), 104 of them were infertile patients while the other 50 males were fertile healthy control males, with mean age of 29.95±0.68 and 27.58±0.51 years respectively, who attended the infertility center/Al-Hussein Teaching hospital, from october 2016 to January 2018. All patients submitted full reports about their medical status history, in addition to their infertility type (primary or secondary). Specimens of seminal fluid were collected for study from all patients and control. Semen samples were collected by masturbation after 3 days of sexual abstinence. Seminal fluid was analyzed (seminogram) to evaluates certain sperms parameters according to WHO laboratory manual for the examination and processing of human semen, (fifth edition). After that all patients and control group were tested for the presence of anti-sperm antibody (ASA) in their seminal fluid by using method (ELISA). Patients with positive antisperm antibody were tested by nPCR for detection of HPV in extracted sperm DNA based on detection of HPV E gene, trying to find a relationship between infection with HPV and formation and development of anti-sperm antibody. The patient’s specimens with negative anti-sperm negative were further tested by ELISA method to detect the presence of anti-HPV-IgG antibody and comet assay (single cell gel electrophoresis) is used to evaluate sperm DNA fragmentation, then all the samples were tested by nested PCR for detection of HPV-E gene in the extracted sperm DNA. The patients who have positive HPV-E gene result by nPCR were further tested by real time PCR based on detection of L1 gene to detect the genotypes of HPV-16, HPV-18. Regarding the type of infertility in this study, the primary type of infertility was the more frequent type (83.65%) compared to secondary type of infertility (16.34%), and according to statistical analysis, the difference was significant (P < 0.05) between two types of infertility.Seminal fluid analysis in this study showed there were no significant differences (p>0.05) between patients and control group in (pH, percentage of normal sperm morphology and color) indicators. While there were significant differences (P < 0.05) observed in each of semen volume, total sperm count, sperm count per ml, sperm vitality, viscosity, liquefaction time and sperm motility. The overall prevalence of ASA in seminal plasma among studied population was 16.23%.Among infertile patients anti-sperm antibody was positive in 21.15% compered to 6% among healthy control group.Regardingthe ELISA test for detection anti-HPV-IgG antibody, the overall prevalence of anti-HPV-IgG antibody was 10.07%. whereas anti-HPV-IgG detected in 14.63% (12/82) of infertile males compared to 2.12% in healthy fertile males) seminal fluid with test sensitivity of 41.66% and specificity of 90.0%. The result of comet assay for detection of sperm DNA damage among studied population indicated that, none of fertile healthy males gave a positive comet assay, While 14.63% of infertile patients showed comet assay positive result with sensitivity of 83.33% and specificity of 97.14%.The precence of HPV was estimated by molecular method nPCR to detect the presence of HPV-E gene in extracted sperm DNA of patients with infertility and control group, HPV-E gene was detected in l4.63% of infertile patients. While (85.36%) have negative HPV-E gene results. in comparison, none of normal fertile males showed positive result of HPV-E gene (0%). The differences between both groups was statistically significant (p<0.05).In this study, the HPV-16 genotype was the most frequently detected genotype (50%) whereas HPV-18 genotype was (25%) and the other genotypes of HPV was accounted for (25%).Seminal HPV infection is found in a significant proportion of infertile patient in Thi-qar governorate, and it may have considered as a risk factor of male infertility due to sperms DNA integrity changes by HPV infection that leads to immunological and spermatogenesis environment alteration which is quite evident with HPV genotypes (16 and 18). © 2020.

It has been shown that both male and female can make antibodies that react with human sperm and it should, therefore, be considered as a potential fertility parameter. The subjects of this study were from Thi-Qar province where the study was conducted at the infertility unit at Hussein Teaching Hospital in Thi-Qar, south of Iraq,during the period from Aug 2017 to May 2018. Therefore, the aim of this study was an investigation of the levels of Anti-sperm antibodies in infertile men and to determine the roles of the presence of some biochemical parameters (Testosterone hormone, Follicle stimulating hormone, Luteinizing hormone and prolactin hormone). Seventy infertile men aged(22 -36) years and thirty-five fertile men of the age (21-36) year were included in this study as a control group, had not taking any oral drug from three months prior to the study.The patients were divided into two groups (primary and secondary infertility). Seminal fluids and blood serum were collected from each group. All semen samples were collected following (3-5) days of abstinence.presence of antisperm antibody was estimated in the seminal plasma by ELISA sperm antibody kit method. Out of 70 infertile men, antibodies were observed in 40 men of primary infertility and 16 men of secondary infertility. The conclusion of this study was observed there is relationship between ASA and some reproductive hormones. © 2020.

Also investigated phenotypic correlations between the milk compositions traits was observed along with prediction of protein and fat. The highest percentage of protein, fat and solids-not-fat (SNF) in milk were in Awassi sheep (5.10, 5.55 and 9.015, respectively), and the highest total solids (TS) and lactose were significantly in local goats (14.0%) and Frisian cattle (4.64%) respectively. All phenotypic correlations between milk constituents in cattle were positive except between SNF and protein (-0.59). The correlations in sheep were in 0.11- 0.99 range and 0.14 - 0.80 range in goats between milk compositions traits. The prediction equations of protein were with high 79, 88 and 99% in cattle, sheep and goats respectively indicating that protein percentage could be predicted from TS and SNF in high accuracy. The R2 s of fat was very low in all three species which reflecting the inability to rely on TS and SNF to predict the percentage of fat in milk. © 2020 Ecological Society of India.

The objectives of this study were to gather new data regarding the chewing lice species of aquatic birds in the Al-Sanaf marsh, Southern Thi-Qar province, Iraq. A total of 65 of aquatic bird specimens belonging to three bird species were examined for the chewing lice infestation. The birds were collected from Al-Sanaf marsh southern Thi-Qar province, Iraq. Twenty out of totally 65 (30.76%) birds were found to be infested with at least one chewing lice species for each bird. Four different species of chewing lice related to Quadraceps genus have been recorded from Iraq for the first time.

The sample includes 75 patients who were attending Al-Nasiryiah heart center, during the period from December 2017 to March 2018, with 41 healthy as a control group. The result indicated a significant increase (at P≤0.05) of TG,HDL and VLDL in VSD patients compared with the control group. while non-significant differences in Cholesterol and LDL in VSD patients compared with the control group. The results showed a significant increase (P≤ 0.05) of ALT, AST, ALP (at P≤ 0.05) in VSD patients compared with control. This study was conducted to identify the potential association of GATA4 gene SNPs with the progression of the ventricular septal defect (VSD) in Thi-Qar province in Iraq. One genetic locus covering 478 bp within the intronic region of the GATA4 gene was amplified and sequenced from both termini. Out of 20 sequenced samples in this locus, only one SNP was observed, namely rs10503425,which was found to be known with its association with VSD. The online available records of this SNP has indicated its pathological correlation with the progression of this congenital disease. The current results indicated that the distribution of the observed rs10503425 was only found in 6 examined samples, including samples no. 7, 10, 13, 14, 17, and 19. In conclusion, this observation may unmask more confirmation about the particular involvement of this discovered SNP in the progression of VSD in Thi-Qar population. © 2020, Advanced Scientific Research.

So, this study aims to (i) Investigate the attitude of physicians and nurses toward inter-professional collaboration and (ii) Identify the relationship between certain demographic characteristics and the overall attitude. Design of study: Cross-sectional descriptive design was adopted in this study. Methods: The researcher used the Arabic version of the Jefferson Scale of Attitude toward Physician-Nurse Collaboration (JSAPNC) as a tool to achieve the purpose of the study. 236 physician and nurse were participated in the study. All nurses and physicians who have one year of experience or more were qualified to be comprised in the sample. Findings: Results show that the nurses have more positive attitude toward physician-Nurse collaboration were he total mean score for nurses was 3.10 in comparison to 3.06 for physicians. Also, there was a statistically significant relationship between overall attitude while no relationship appeared with years of experience. Conclusions: according to the study findings, nurses have more willingness to collaborate with physician despite the literature proven effect of hierarchical model of patient care which is followed in Iraq. © 2020, Advanced Scientific Research.

So, the role that nurse playing in this process is very important and integral role to preserve safety of the patient regarding blood transfusion. Aim. Current study intended to assess the knowledge level concerning reactions of blood transfusion among nurses. Setting. current study was implemented in various units in AL Hussein Teaching Hospital in Al-Nasiriyah city. Sample: A (random) sample that include 100 nurses working in multiple departments in AL Hussein Teaching Hospital. Tools: Structured questionnaire sheet was used to gather the data. Results: (62%) of nurses had low knowledge level regarding to reactions of blood transfusion. In addition, there were no statically significant relationships between socio-demographic characteristic of the nurses and their knowledge regarding to blood transfusion reactions. (except for place of work). Conclusion: Current study conclude that with lack in theoretical knowledge, nurses is at risk of using bad judgment and deficiency in the tools needed to learn from practice. © 2020, Advanced Scientific Research.

Two chemical compounds from ethanolic extract were separated and characterized by GC-MS-MS that they were Di(2-ethylhexyl) ester terephthalic acid and Dododecane. The effect of (hot aqueous & ethanolic extracts, Di(2-ethylhexyl) ester terephthalic acid, Dodecane and silver nanoparticles) was studied on many biological parameters of the insect E. cautella during larval and adult stages. The treatment with silver nanoparticles was the most efficient concerning antifeedant index (AFI) of the moth larvae with average (0.70%) with significant difference from other treatments, the concentration 1500 ppm was the most effective with average (0.65%) with significant difference from other concentrations and control. The average of percentage of sterility index (SI) achieved in treatment with silver nanoparticles (99.65%) was higher than others and the concentration 1500 ppm was the most efficient concerning this parameter with average (99.88%) that was significantly different from control and other concentrations. © 2020 Plant Archives.

It was founded that, all isolates were resistant (100%) to cephalothin and chloramphenicol, but 95% of A.baumannii were resistant to ticarcilin and pipracilin, and 90% of isolates were resistant to cefotaxime,gentamicin, trimethoprim /sufamethaxazole and ceftriaxone. Bacterial isolates were registered lower resistance to colistin (45%).All isolates (100%) were appeared MDR bacteria that resistant to 3 classes of antibiotics that were distributed of 1(5%), 1(5%), 3(15%), 2(10%) and 1(5%) of isolates were resistant to 3,4, 5,6 and 7 respectively. It was also demonstrated that, 3(15%) of isolates were extensive drug resistance (XDR) and 9(45%) of A.baumannii were pandrug resistance (PDR). OXA-51 like gene were detected in all isolates (100%). The results showed that 13 isolates (65%) of A. baumannii were possessed bal-VIM gene. © 2020, Advanced Scientific Research.

The first group was the control group and a second group were injected with aqueous extraction of Eucalyptus leaves extract at concentrations of 100 and 150 mg /Kg experiment lasted 30 days. Zn, Pb, Cd, and Cu were measured in the leaves of plant and after confirming the presence of these heavy metals, we exposed the laboratory animals to the Eucalyptus aqueous extract and after the end of the period rats were sacrifice and blood collected. Blood were used to measure study parameters and relative gene expression of (SOD and catalase). Moreover, antioxidants and enzymes AST and AL were measured from serum. Results showed that the concentration of Pb in the plant was 0.19μg/g. The highest mean Zn was 14.23μg/g. The Cd concentration was 0.35μg/g and the copper concentration were 2.31μg/g from previous data we can find out that the amount of heavy metals is not really high. we would be expected low impact on animals since not high concentration found. The results of blood parameters of rats showed different outcome where it has been noticed that a significant increase in Hb, PLT and RBC at the 100mg/kg exposure and an increase in WBC in both concentrations. In addition, our results showed a significant decrease in RBC and Hb at the 150mg/Kg decrease MDA, MCV and MCH levels are decreased at both concentrations. A significant decrease in AST at 150mg/kg while the results showed a significant increase in lower concentration. © 2020, Indian Journal of Forensic Medicine and Toxicology.

Currentstudyhas been done in order to determine QTD in patients with stable angina, assess myocardial ischemia and infarction. Aims of Study: This study aiming to determine the relationship between severity of coronary artery disease (CAD) and degree of QTD. Patients and Method: A 214 patients (177 men and 37 women) underwent diagnostic coronary angiography because of suspected CAD. Standard resting 12 lead electrocardiogram (ECG) were recorded within 24hrs before coronary angiography. QT intervals were measured manually by ruler method and QTD were gauged as (QT maximum – QT minimum). A 184 patients had CAD and control group (30 persons) had a normal coronary angiogram Interestingly, QTD has increased significantly as there was sever increment of CAD. QTD was in 1 vessel disease, 2 vessel disease, in 3 vessel disease, and in left main stem disease. Left ventricular dysfunction has raised QTD significantly in patients with 1,2 vessels, as well as left main stem disease. QTD clearly elevated as Gensini score increased. Involvement of proximal left anterior descending artery did not increase QTD significantly in patients with CAD. Multiple regression analysis demonstrated that severity of CAD, left ventricular dysfunction and previous myocardial infarction were independently associated with increased QTD. QTD increased significantly in patients with stable angina compared to the controls. Severity increase of CAD resulted in significant increase in QTD, and presence of LV dysfunction has caused further increase. © 2020, Indian Journal of Forensic Medicine and Toxicology.

These rats were dosed with a concentration of (1, 1.5 and 2) mg/ml of the aforesaid extract at a daily dose of (10, 15 and 20) days and then, the rats' faeces were tested to observe the change in parasite numbers after dosing the extract. The results showed that the ethanolic extract of Chlorella sp. was effective in reducing the vesicated and fed stages Entamoeba histolytica-infected rats, where the rate of killing those stages had recorded the highest percentage at dose of 2mg/ml during a period of 20 days. Moreover, qualitative detections of chemicals for secondary metabolism of ethanolic extract of Chlorella sp. were carried out, which indicated the presence of chemically active compounds. The therapeutic efficiency of the extract was also calculated, which has recorded 68.70%. The Chlorella can be used to control infectious diseases and prevent Entamoeba histolytica parasite. © 2020 Plant Archives.

However, none have used PCR to investigate the genetic containing of the virus in this particular area. Therefore, this project intends to detect the presence of hepatitis B using molecular methods and determine the accuracy of the available routine serological methods. The project was performed during the period between September 2017 to January 2019. The Samples have been collected from Dhi-Qar hospital clinical lab, in the province of Dhi-Qar, Iraq. The study has examined 135 patients that have been sending by the internal medicine clinic to the lab to be tested for the possibility of having hepatitis. ELIZA technique has shown that 99 (73.3%) of the patients were tested positive for hepatitis, while 36 (26.6%) are negative. Additionally, the study detected the male sex bias nature of the disease represented by 73 men infected while only 26 women were diseased in the present study. Moreover, aging was one of the factors that reduce the defense mechanism of the disease. Interestingly, PCR test has shown that seven men and ten women patients were positive while they been considered negative by ELISA. My study suggests using the PCR technique in the clinic lab as it can detect the presence of the nucleic acid in a fast and more accurate way. © 2020, Advanced Scientific Research.

The respective extracts of its leaves, stems and roots were prepared by soxhlet extraction technique in methanol. The results confirmed the presence of flavonoids, polyphones and tannins as the most importantphotochemical. The percentage composition of various nutrition parameters (moisture, total ash, crude fat, protein, crude fiber, and carbohydrate) is showed that leaves had the highest moisture, ash contents, protein, fats, fiber, carbohydrate and gross energy than other parts. From the results achieved, phenolic compounds content determined used folin reagent method showed the presence of polyphones,tannins, and flavonoids. The total phenolic and flavonoid contents of methanol extract of the three parts (leaves, stems and roots) aredetermined as 38.15 mg of (GAE/gm), 25.07 mg of (GAE/gm) and 17.61 mg of (GAE/gm) respectively. In DPPH free radical scavenging test for antioxidant activity, the IC50 values (IC50 varied from 17.2 mg/mL in leaves, 22.2 mg/mL in stems to 24.7 mg/mL in roots). Hence, chrozophoratinctoria (L) Rafin mayhave medicinal properties against diseases. © 2020, Advanced Scientific Research.

Guidelines suggested confirming the benignity of AI radiologically and excluding hormonal dysfunctions. This study evaluated the reliability of computed tomography (CT) scan radiological parameters in predicting the functionality of AI. Patients and Methods: A cross-sectional study performed in Faiha Specialized Diabetes, Endocrine and Metabolism Centre from July 2017 to July 2018, involving 38 patients (23 females [60.5%]) harbouring 43 AI referred for evaluation. For all patients, we assessed history, physical examination, radiological parameters of AI by CT scan (native Hounsfield unit [HU]), maximum diameter and absolute percentage washout [APW] and blood investigations (glycated haemoglobin, adrenocorticotropic hormone, aldosterone, renin, aldosterone/renin ratio, normetanephrine, metanephrine, dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate, cortisol and 1 mg overnight dexamethasone suppression test). Results: Native CT adrenal HU ≥18.5 was statistically significant seen in most functional AI (FAI) (P = 0.006), especially in patients with mild autonomous cortisol excess (MACE) and pheochromocytoma (PCC) with P = 0.02 in both. Maximum diameter was significantly high (≥40 mm) in PCC and congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) (P = 0.018 and 0.008, respectively). APW was significantly < 60% only in PCC (P = 0.02). Conclusions: Native HU was the most significant radiological parameter in predicting the functionality of FAI, MACE and PCC, but not in CAH and aldosterone-producing adenoma. The maximum diameter was significant in predicting the PCC and CAH, whereas the APW was significant in predicting PCC only.Adrenal adenomas; adrenal computed tomography; adrenal incidentalomaadrenal tumor; adult; aged; cross-sectional study; diagnostic imaging; female; human; middle aged; Nigeria; procedures; reproducibility; x-ray computed tomography; Adrenal Gland Neoplasms; Adult; Aged; Cross-Sectional Studies; Female; Humans; Middle Aged; Nigeria; Reproducibility of Results; Tomography, X-Ray ComputedNLM (Medline)1117193632295940EnglishNiger Postgrad Med JArticleFinalAll Open Access, GoldScopus2-s2.0-85083479431

Let G = (V,E) be a finite, simple and undirected graph without isolated vertices, a subset D of V is a pitchfork dominating set if every vertex v D dominates at least j and at most k vertices of V-D, where j and k are non-negative integers. The domination number of G, denotes γpf(G) is a minimum cardinality over all pitchfork dominating sets in G. In this work, pitchfork domination when j = 1 and k = 2 is studied. Some bounds on γpf(G) related to the order, size, minimum degree, maximum degree of a graph and some properties are given. Pitchfork domination is determined for some known and new modified graphs. Finally, a question has been answered and discussed that; does every finite, simple and undirected graph G without isolated vertices have a pitchfork domination or not? © 2020 World Scientific Publishing Company.Dominating set; minimal pitchfork domination; minimum pitchfork domination; pitchfork dominationAl-Harere, M.N., Breesam, A.T., Variant types of domination in spinner graph (2019) Al-Nahrain J, (2), pp. 127-133; Al-Harere, M.N., Breesam, T.A., Further results on bi-domination in graphs (2019) AIP Conf.

The aim of our study is to know the most common early and late complications that may occur in this type of surgery. Methods: a study was done in GIT center in Al-Nassiryia city 360 K.M south of Iraq through 3 years 20/ 1/2015 till 19/1/2018 on 56 patients, prospective study review and analysis was done after fallow up post operatively for 3 years of our patients who done for them LSG, we records the rate of weight reductions in the every 3 months for the first post operative year fallowed the second and third postoperative year.in additions we records the complications that happened for our patients. Results:56 patients who had done for them laparoscopic sleeve gastric resection (LSG) for morbid obesity (body mass index more than 40). 45 patients females(80.4%) and 11 males (19.6%). All of the female patients were decrease in the weight at first 3 months about 20—30 k.g then the weight loss rate were become less, about 9-12 kg at 2nd 3 mouth post operatively, then 8 to 7 kg in 3rd 3 months and in last 3 months they lost about 5-7 k.g. the rate of decreasing weight in males is faster than the females mostly due to more activities, the weight lost in males at first 3 months about 22---34 k.g then about 10.5—13.3kg at 2nd 3 months post operatively, then 9 to 7.6 kg in 3rd 3 months and in last 3 months they lost about 6-7.5 k.g. most common early complications were occur in our patients, repeated vomiting (85.7%) of patients, loss of appetite (92%), upper abdominal pain(57.1 %), chest infection(10.7 %),bleeding at the staple line (37.8 %), hair loss (42.8 %),, vitamins deficiency symptoms as zinc and vitamin E (12.5 %) in spite of oral supplements, UTI (24%),renal impairments 5.3%, one case were dead at tenth post-operative day due to leakage and end with peritonitis,sepsis and septic shock. while the common late complications were skin laxity and redundant of the skin, multiple gall stones 6 cases (10.7%), weight regain after one year 12% due to removed less than 75% of stomach and due to dietary intolerance. Conclusions: sleeve gastrectomy is a simple operation in hand experience in laparoscopic surgery, it give very good results in treatments of morbid obesity, decreasing in the weight mostly occur in the first 3 months. Regain of weight may occur after first postoperative year. the main early complications can be prevented or decreased in incidence with good fallow up. Cholecystectomy must be done with LSR to prevent additional laparoscopic cholecystectomy due to gall stones which may occur with the time after LSR. © 2020, Advanced Scientific Research.

Through casting techniques, the composite materials have been prepared. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) and X ray diffraction (XRD) analysis have characterized the preparation of PVA-g-AA composites that found the formation of the composite and the adipic acid presence in polyvinyl alcohol. Studies of DC conductivity demonstrate all composites in thermally activated behavior. Conductance has been found to reduce with increasing temperature showing the semi-conductive behaviour for all doping ratios. With doping ratios in coloring and increasing temperature, the activation energy reduced. Maximum conductance in polyvinyl alcohol has been measured in 0.15% of dye. In sensor technology, Dye sensitization of performing polymeric materials had acquired practical application and wide theoretical interest. The current study provides the effect of polymer presence of dye (conductivity, structure and properties), dye sensitized photo sensors and application in sensors. At the end, advantages and perspectives were included of sensitizing polymers or modifying dye in sensors. © 2020, Advanced Scientific Research.

A short-term disease risk prediction is a challenging task but is a great importance for teleheath care systems to provide accurate and reliable recommendations to patients. In this work, a general extensible learning approach for multi-disease recommendations is proposed to provide accurate recommendations for patients with chronic diseases in a telehealth environment. This approach generates appropriate recommendations for patients suffering from chronic diseases such as heart failure and diabetes about the need to take a medical test or not on the coming day based on the analysis of their medical data. The statistical features extracted from the sub-bands obtained after a four-level decomposition of the patient's time series data are classified using a machine learning ensemble model. A combination of three classifiers – Least Squares-Support Vector Machine, Artificial Neural Network, and Naive Bayes – are utilized to construct the bagging-based ensemble model used to produce the final recommendations for patients. Two real-life datasets collected from chronic heart and diabetes disease patients are used for experimentations and evaluation. The experimental results show that the proposed approach yields a very good recommendation accuracy and offers an effective way to reduce the risk of incorrect recommendations as well as reduces the workload for chronic diseases patients who undergo body tests most days. Thus, the proposed approach is considered one of a promising tool for analyzing time series medical data of multi diseases and providing accurate and reliable recommendations to patients suffering from different types of chronic diseases. © 2018 Elsevier B.V.Chronicle heart disease; Dual-Tree complex wavelet transformation; Machine learning ensemble; Recommender system; Telehealth environment; Time series predictionDecision making; eHealth; Medical computing; Support vector machines; Time series; Clinical decision making; Continuous monitoring; Intelligent technology; Least squares support vector machines; Medical measurement; Recommendation accuracy; Statistical features; Time-series medical data; Diseaseskx201615; Education Department of Jiangxi Province: ky2016YB149; Guangxi Key Laboratory of Automatic Detection Technology and Instrument Foundation; Education Department of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous RegionThe authors would like to thank the support from Guangxi Key Laboratory of Trusted Software (No. kx201615) and Capacity Building Project for Young University Staff in Guangxi Province, Department of Education, Guangxi Province (No. ky2016YB149).The authors would like to thank the support from Guangxi Key Laboratory of Trusted Software (No. kx201615 ) and Capacity Building Project for Young University Staff in Guangxi Province, Department of Education , Guangxi Province (No. ky2016YB149 ).Bashir, S., Qamar, U., Khan, F.H., Bagmoov: a novel ensemble for heart disease prediction bootstrap aggregation with multi-objective optimized voting (2015) Aust.

Sundry studies have shown a nitric oxide role in the regulation of anxiety. The goal of the study was to investigate sodium nitroprusside ability to affect anxiety-like behavior in mice and to compare this effect with the standard anxiolytic drug, diazepam, using both plus maze test and light/dark box test. The results revealed that sodium nitroprusside at a dose of 1 mg/kg had a significant effect on the behavior in both of the elevated plus maze test and light/dark test. However, at higher dose (3 mg/kg), it has significantly increased the anxiogenic-like effect in the light/dark box test. Diazepam at a dose of 2 mg/kg increased the time spent in open arms in elevated plus maze test and that in light chambers of light/dark test. These outcomes suggest that a nitric oxide pathway seems to play an important role in anxiety. Furthermore, sodium nitroprusside at a dose of 1 mg/kg showed a nearly anxiolytic ability, when compared with diazepam. © 2020 University of Baghdad-College of Science.

This work aims to provide a better understanding of the mechanical behavior of mortar under loading (compression, direct tension and flexural moment). In Iraq, there are many cities placed along the Tigris and Euphrates, therefore can be obtained a lot of quantities of river sand that result from cree and clean these rivers which is considered a cheap prices material, it is used in agriculture only. The most of natural sand in Iraq contains high sulfur trioxide (SO3) which is exceed the Iraqi Standard Specifications [IQS No. 45, 1984], it is (0.5 %). This work explains the influence of river sand on the mechanical behavior of mortar which replacement of natural sand. Four groups of specimens have been realized within a water cement ratios of 0.48, 0.52, 0.58 and 0,6. One group is considered as reference: these specimens without river sand, natural sand only. Other groups have been river sand that replacement of natural sand of 25, 50 and 75 %. All manufactured specimens have the following dimensions for cubes (50∗ 50∗ 50 mm), prisms (40∗ 40∗ 160 mm) and bon dog (25∗ 28∗ 70 mm). In this work, some tests are used for materials and specimens for examples sieve analysis and flow test for materials. Compression test, flexural test and bon dog test have been designed for specimens. Finally, the experimental results are presented in relationships, histogram and tables between mechanical properties and the replacement of river sand. The results show the effect river sand on the mechanical properties positively until 25 % but this this behavior becomes negatively when this value becomes higher than 25 %. © 2020 Author(s).(1984) Rubble of Natural Resources Working in Concrete and Construction "(Central Organization for Standardization and Quality Control Iraqi Standards), , C.

Concrete mixes were prepared using magnetic field treated mixing water and compared with regular concrete mixes that were made with normal (non-magnetized) tap water. Magnetizing the mixing water was performed by allowing the tap regular water to pass through magnetic fields that ranged in magnetic strength between 0.9 and 1.3 Tesla. Water / Cementitious material ratio, curing age, intensity of the magnetic field as well as cement content were used as the main variables that were investigated as to their influences on the behavior of magnetic mixing water concrete as compared to concrete with normal non-magnetized mixing water. Results showed that the workability of concrete has increased slightly compared with tap water mixed-concrete. At different curing ages, compressive strength of concrete was found to improve considerably as a result of mixing water magnetizing. The maximum enhancement of concrete compressive strength was obtained at the maximum magnetic field intensity used, which was 1.3 Tesla. Compressive strength enhancement was found to be more significant at early ages. It was also found that almost similar levels of fresh concrete workability and 28th day compressive strength and were obtained with 7.5% reduction of cement content for concrete samples made with magnetized mixing water as compared to those made with normal non-magnetized water. This cement requirement reduction may promote the potential to use magnetic mixing water as a positive modification towards a more sustainable concrete. © 2020 Author(s).Song, H., Zhao, S., (2011) ADV.

In each copolymer the low critical solution temperature (LCST) which was observed at (32°C ± 1). The thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) investigations of hydrogels shows that the loss of swelled water starts from (20°C). The swelling behaviors of all copolymers was studied into two ways and at different temperatures, were the best swelled hydrogels are PNIPAAm-co-TUr at (25°C), PNIPAAm at (35°C), and PNIPAAm-co-EDA at (45°C) based on medical cotton as a surface. The ability of water swelling has been varied according to the functions group of the co-monomer and the way of it connection in polymer chain that's due to hydrogen bonding with water. The medical cotton shows a good water swelling surface more than Iraqi fluff and tail cottons. The surface area of these polymers has been determined by Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) were PNIPAAm-co-EDA have the highest surface area (9.357 m2/g), and the PNIPAAm-co-Ur have the lowest one (0.055 m2/g). It revealed different values according to linking terminal of these monomers in PNIPAAm backbone. © 2020 Author(s).Qui, Y., Park, K., (2001) Adv.

However, the sufficient time for observations to achieve a certain level of accuracy is still one of the main concerns for researchers and specialists. In this study, the geometry of a short-sides triangle has been employed to estimate the sufficient observing times of GNSS receivers throughout the online processing services. The short-sides triangle vertices were observed for 24 hours and partitioned into shorter periods of time, then GPS and GLONASS have been processed as well as GPS alone after filtering out the GLONASS observables. Datasets have been processed using online post-processing services, i.e. AUSPOS and CSRS-PPP. A number of propagation error models have been applied to investigate the station accuracy behaviour. the results have revealed that RMS errors of 1 cm can be achieved after two hours for horizontal component and three hours for the vertical component. Furthermore, including GLONASS satellites is playing a role to enhance accuracy especially in short observation times. © 2020 IOP Publishing Ltd.AUSPOS; CSRS; GNSS; Online processing; Time estimationGhoddousi-Fard, R., Dare, P., Online GPS processing services: An initial study (2006) GPS Solut., 10 (1), pp. 12-20; Dawidowicz, K., Krzan, G., Accuracy of single receiver static GNSS measurements under conditions of limited satellite availability (2014) Surv.

This method has a computational cost less than that of doing those processes sequentially [1,9]. In this paper, a new signcryption scheme is presented. This scheme is similar to that of Zheng signcryption algorithm but it uses bilinear groups and the security of our scheme is based on Computational Diffie-Hellman Problem instead of Discrete Logarithm Problem. Since methods rely on bilinear groups have high security also with relatively small keys, we believe that the proposed scheme possesses high security and efficiency. © 2020 SERSC.Bilinear Group; CDHP; Digital Signature; Elliptic Curves; Encryption; SigncryptionZheng, Y., Digital Signcryption or how to achieve cost (signature+encryption) << cost(signature)+cost(encryption) (1997) advances in cryptology, Crypt'97, LNCS, 1294, pp. 165-175. , Y.

Thirty female mice used in this study were exposed to oxidative stress through giving them hydrogen peroxide in drinking water for 30 days. Animals randomly distributed over 3 groups, each group contained 10 animals and treated as follows: T1 control group (drinking distilled water only), T2 (0.75% hydrogen peroxide in drinking water) and T3 (0.75% hydrogen peroxide in drinking water with daily drenching with 1 mL lemon juice). At the end of the experiment, blood samples were collected from animals for evaluating the following hematological and biochemical parameters: Haemoglobin concentration (Hb), red blood cells count (RBC), white blood cells count (WBC), packed cell volume (PCV), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular haemoglobin (MCH), mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), platelet count (PLT), level of aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and total protein. The results showed that T3 exhibited an enhancement in RBC count, Hb concentration, WBC, lymphocyte and total protein and reduction in the level of AST and ALT compared to T2. These findings clearly revealed the advance protective and antioxidant features of lemon juice on hematological and biochemical parameters of the oxidatively stressed female mice. © 2020 University of Baghdad.

Producing an efficient electric machine required not only studying and analysing the electromagnetic properties but also deeper thermal analysis. It has been found that attention to the thermal design can be improve the total machine performance. In this paper a thermal model of the two-layer and spoke-type ferrite interior permanent magnet (IPM) machines is developed. FEA models are built to run the thermal studies and temperature distribution of the machine under different operating conditions. A prototype machine is built and tested for the experimental validations of the FEA. A prototype machine is tested under various working conditions. The testing results validate analytical model and the FEA methods. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Nelson, J.J., Venkataramanan, G., El-Refaie, A.M., Fast thermal profiling of power semiconductor devices using Fourier techniques (2006) IEEE Trans.

However, salts started to accumulate in high concentrations in the marsh as the MOD water contains high salt concentrations. This study aims to find an optimal outlet location in the west part of Al Hammar Marsh to drain out the water of the marsh back to the (MOD). Hydrodynamic and water quality distribution mathematical models for the marsh were developed to specify the depths of water, flow velocity profiles, and the distribution of salt concentrations in the marsh. The obtained hydrodynamic properties and the quality of the water within the marsh area were used as indicators for selecting the optimal outlet location among five suggested locations at six operation conditions. Results showed that the water depth, velocity profiles, and concentration of the total dissolved solids (TDS) are affected by the location, discharge, the concentration of the TDS of the feeders, location of the outlet, the topographic characteristics at the upstream of outlet, and evapotranspiration. It is found that the third location of the outlet, located at E=699003 and N=3404760, gives the minimum deterioration in the concentration of the TDS, depending on the overall distribution of TDS concentrations. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Al Hammar; Marsh; outlet; TDSRyidh Abood, Y., Khayyun Amtair, R., Zaidun Naji, A., Water budget for Abu Zirig Marsh in Southern Iraq (2018) Journal of Engineering and Sustainable Development, 22; (2010) Possibility of Using the Water of the Main Outfall Drain to Restore Al Hammar Marsh after Operating the Pumping Station in Al Nassiriyah, , Center for the Restoration of Iraqi Marshs, CRIM; Partow, H., (2001) Book; Of Irrigation, M., (2004) Report on Iraqi Marshes; Sharp, W.E., A topologically optimum water-sampling plan for rivers and streams (1971) Water Resour Res, 7 (6), pp. 1641-1646; Bellman, R., (1975) Dynamic Programming; Harmancioglu, N.B., Icaga, Y., Gul, A., The use of an optimization method in assessment of water quality sampling sites (2004) Eur Water, 5, pp. 25-35; Park, C., Kim, S.H., Telci, I.T., Aral, M.M., (2010) Proceedings of the 2010 Winter Simulation Conference (WSC), pp. 5-8; Nhm, S., Bin Othman, M.S., Bin Selamat, M.H., Identifying of potential crime area using Analytical Hierachy Process (AHP) and Geographical Information System (GIS) (2013) Int J Innov Comput Appl, 2, pp. 15-22; (1976) Techniques of Water-resources Investigations of the United States Geological Survey, , USGS; (2007) Study of Improving the Environmental Present Condition of Southern Marshes, , Center for the Restoration of Iraqi Marshs, CRIM; Donnell, B.P., (2009) User Guide to WES-RMA2 Version 4.5, Water Ways Experiment Station; Donnell, B.P., (2009) User Guide to WES-RMA4 Version 4.5, Water Ways Experiment StationInstitute of Physics Publishing4th International Conference on Buildings, Construction and Environmental Engineering, BCEE4 20197 October 2019 through 9 October 201915818417578981EnglishIOP Conf.

The jet grouted soil cement columns in soft is a complicated issue because it depends on a number of factors such as, soil nature, mixture, influence among soil and grouting materials, jetting force of nozzle, jet grouting and water flow rate, rotation and lifting speed. This paper discusses the estimation of shear strength parameters of soil-cement column (soilcrete) in soft clayey soil based on the relationships between the unconfined compressive and split tensile strength for the soilcrete and the effect of the jet grouting and water pressure in the values of cohesion and internal friction. For this reason, theoretical and field work models have been developed. The relation between split tensile and unconfined compressive strength results were used to draw a Mohr's circle and failure enveloped to define the shear strength parameters of soilcrete. According to that, the results indicate that the resistance of the jet grout columns increases by increasing the nominal resistance of the grouting material (cement), water and jet grouting pressure. The shear resistance variables are increased by increasing the unconfined compressive and tensile strength of the jetting column. The value of the unconfined compressive strength ranges from (2.78-5.52 MPa). While the internal friction angle varies from 38° to 44°. On the other hand, the tensile strength is increased by increasing the unconfined compressive strength and ranges from (0.66-1.02 MPa). © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Jet grouted soil-cement columns; unconfined compressive strength and shear strengthNiermann Matthew, J., Jenevein Douglas, R., Worst Stanley, L., Jet Grouting for Water Cutoff and Excavation Support (2017) Grouting(July 6, 2017).; Pinto, Alexandre, Rui, T., Gonzalo, M., Ground Improvement with Jet Grouting Solutions at the New Cruise Terminal in Lisbon, Portugal (2016) Procedía Engineering, 143, pp. 1495-1502; Schaefer, Vernon, R., (1997) Ground Improvement Ground EnhancingGround Treatment Developments 1987-1997.

Abu-Ziriq Marsh, located in the south of Iraq, is chosen as the case study for the application of the proposed methodology. The aim of this study was to assess the ability of using three different models of Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques: Adaptive Neural-based Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS), Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) and Multiple Regression Model (MLR) to predict and estimate the discharge of Abu-Ziriq Marsh by depending on flow release from upstream Al-Badaa regulator. Daily discharge of Al-Badaa regulator(QB ) and Abu-Ziriq Marsh(Qz ) were used in this study. The water quantity data, consisting of 720 records of daily data between the years 2017 and 2018, were used for training and testing the models. The training and testing data were randomly partitioned into 515 (70.5 %) and 215 (29.5 %) datasets, respectively. The performance of all models was assessed through the correlation coefficient (R), root mean square error (RMSE) and Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency coefficient (NSE). Results of RMSE, R and NSE for the calibration (validation) of ANFIS model were 4.11 (4.17), 0.87 (0.83) and 0.76 (0.70), respectively. The evaluation of the results indicates that ANFIS model is superior to other models. The identified ANFIS models can be used as tools for the computation of water quantity parameter(Qz ) in Iraqi Marshes. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Abu-Ziriq Marsh; Al-Badaa Regulator; Artificial Intelligence Techniques; Data-Driven Models; Water Quantity ParametersSingh, K.P., Malik, A., Basant, N., Saxena, P., Multi-way partial least squares modeling of water quality databa/ (2007) Chim.

Because of its strategical and economic importance in addition to tourism, this study is important. In recent years, many of problems had been observed in many structures constructed on marshes soils due to complex collapsible behavior of such soils. The soils of the marshes are considered as weak soil. This fact comes along because of water table being near the ground level or above it which is usually a fine sand and silty sand. The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of silica fume as Nano-materials on the collapsibility of disturbed marshes soils brought up from Alchibayish area (Thi-Qar) Governorate and Alhalfaiya area (Messan) Governorate collected at depth (1.0) m below the natural ground surface. All fundamental tests were performed on these soils. The effect of adding Nano silica fume on collapsibility of marshes soil by using three different percentages by weight of the dry marshes soil (1, 2, and 3) % were studied. The results of single collapse tests marked (3) % of Nano silica fume decreases the collapsibility sharply; more than 50 % of improvement in collapse potential has been achieved at these optimum percent of silica fume as Nano-material. Where considerable reduction is observed in compressibility by (45-50) % for marshes soil. In laboratory tests, results showed that these soils have high collapsibility and that the shear parameters increase when treated with Nano silica fume. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Collapse potential; compressibility; Marshes soil; NanomaterialsGaaver, K., Geotechnical properties of Egyptian collapsible soils (2012) Alexandria Engineering Journal, 51, pp. 205-210; Iranpour, B., Haddad, A., The influence of Nano-materials on collapsible soil treatment (2016) Engineering Geology, 205, p. 40; Benatti, J.C.B., Miguel, M.G., A proposal of structural models for colluvial and lateritic soil profile from southwestern Brazil on the basis of their collapsible behavior (2013) Eng.Geol., 153; Howayek, A., Huang, P.T., Bisnett, R., Santagata, M.C., (2011) Identification and Behavior of Collapsible Soils, pp. 45-50; Wilson, M.A., Tran, N.H., Milev, A.S., Kannangara, G.S., Volk, H., Lu, G.Q., Nanomaterials in soils (2008) Geoderma, 146 (1-2), pp. 291-302; Nel, A., Xia, T., Mädler, L., Li, N., Toxic potential of materials at the nano level (2006) Science, 311 (5761), pp. 622-627; Yonekura, R., Miwa, M., Fundamental properties of sodium silicate based grout (1993) Proceeding of the 11th Southeast Asian Geotechnical Conference, pp. 439-440; Noll, M.R., Bartlett, C., Dochat, T.M., In situ permeability reduction and chemical fixation using colloidal silica (1992) Proceeding of the 6th National Outdoor Action Conference on Aquifer Restoration, Ground Water Monitoring, Las Vegas, pp. 443-457; Gallagher, P.M., Conlee, C.T., Rollins, K.M., Full-scale field testing of colloidal silica grouting for mitigation of liquefaction risk (2007) J.

Samples of Alcaligenes faecalis from burns were nominated for detection and identification according to morphological and biochemical tests, the VITEK-2 Compact System, and molecular sequencing by 16S rRNA. Materials and Methods: Antibiotic susceptibility was ascertained by determining the inhibition length of A. faecalis against three antibiotics from varied classes (based on the VITEK 2), which consequently showed resistance to ceftriaxone (10 mm), high resistance to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (SXT) (8 mm), and sensitivity to imipenem (20 mm). The sensitivity of A. faecalis to Enterococcus faecium, Streptococcus thermophilus, and Bacillus subtilis was determined using Mueller-Hinton agar (MHA) with wells of diffused agar. Results: B. subtilis performed best against A. faecalis isolates compared to E. faecium and S. thermophilus, where the area of inhibition was 28 mm. This study dealt with the enhancement of the inhibition zone of antibiotics (imipenem, SXT, and ceftriaxone) by B. subtilis against A. faecalis. Conclusion: The potentiation of antimicrobial activity was observed by imipenem in combination with B. subtilis (32 mm) and B. subtilis with ceftriaxone antibiotics (20 mm). The inhibition action was not affected by SXT (8 mm). © 2020 JPR Solutions.

However, inconstancy and unpredictable amounts of solar radiation are considered major obstacles in designing SAPV systems. Therefore, an accurate sizing method is necessary to apply in order to find an optimal configuration and fulfil the required load demand. In this study, a novel hybrid sizing approach was developed on the basis of techno-economic objectives to optimally size the SAPV system. The proposed hybrid method consisted of an intuitive method to estimate initial numbers of PV modules and storage battery, an iterative approach to accurately generate a set of wide ranges of optimal configurations, and a Pareto envelope-based selection algorithm (PESA-II) to reduce large configuration by efficacy obtaining a set of Pareto front (PF) solutions. Subsequently, the optimal configurations were ranked by using an integrated analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and vlsekeriterijumskaoptimizacija i kompromisonoresenje (VIKOR). The techno-economic objectives were loss of load probability, life cycle cost, and levelized cost of energy. The performance analysis results demonstrated that the lead-acid battery was reliable and more cost-effective than the other types of storage battery. © 2020 by the authors.AHP; Numerical method; Optimal sizing; PESA-II; Standalone PV system; Storage batteryKhalilpour, R., Vassallo, A., Leaving the grid: An ambition or a real choice (2015) Energy Policy, 82, pp. 207-221; Alsadi, S., Khatib, T., Photovoltaic power systems optimization research status: Areview of criteria, constrains, models, techniques, and software tools (2018) Appl.

The tradition technologies still suffer from two problems: performance and security efficiency. The existing research has serious drawbacks when using public-key mechanisms such as digital signature algorithms. In this paper, we propose Reliable and Efficient Integrity Scheme for Data Collection in HWSN (REISCH) to alleviate these problems by using secure and lightweight signature algorithms. The results of the performance analysis indicate that our scheme provides high efficiency in data integration between sensors and server (saves more than 24% of alive sensors compared to traditional algorithms). Additionally, we use Automated Validation of Internet Security Protocols and Applications (AVISPA) to validate the security procedures in our scheme. Security analysis results confirm that REISCH is safe against some well-known attacks. © 2020 by the authors.

A high transmission function is obtained under the high pump field. This function is reduced under increasing the probe field due to the Kerr effect. The phase of this function depends on pumping. It is shown that the application of another two fields from the wetting layer (WL)-quantum dot (QD) type is more efficient in obtaining very high diffraction intensity. So, EIG with high diffraction intensity is obtained under a four-field application. Note that, WL-QD field effect is not studied earlier. Neglecting the WL effect reduces the transmission by five times. The diffraction intensity of this system is six times higher than that obtained from a single QD structure. © 2020, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.Diffraction intensity; Electromagnetically induced grating; Quantum dotCarbon Quantum Dots; Diffraction; Diffraction gratings; Graphene quantum dots; Nanocrystals; Transmissions; Diffraction intensity; Double quantum dots; Electromagnetically induced grating; Field application; Field effects; High transmission; Pump fields; Wetting layer; Semiconductor quantum dotsAbdullah, M., Mohammed Noori, F.T., Al-Khursan, A.H., Terahertz emission in ladder plus Y-configurations in double quantum dot structure (2015) Appl.

However, dynamic studies are rare in this field. Here, we report our measurement of the effects of Ag+ ions on the dynamics of histone-like nucleoid-structuring (H-NS) proteins in live bacteria using singleparticle- tracking photoactivated localization microscopy (sptPALM). It was found that treating the bacteria with Ag+ ions led to faster diffusive dynamics of H-NS proteins. Several techniques were used to understand the mechanism of the observed faster dynamics. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay on purified H-NS proteins indicated that Ag+ ions weaken the binding between H-NS proteins and DNA. Isothermal titration calorimetry confirmed that DNA and Ag+ ions interact directly. Our recently developed sensing method based on bent DNA suggested that Ag+ ions caused dehybridization of double-stranded DNA (i.e., dissociation into single strands). These evidences led us to a plausible mechanism for the observed faster dynamics of H-NS proteins in live bacteria when subjected to Ag+ ions: Ag+-induced DNA dehybridization weakens the binding between H-NS proteins and DNA. This work highlighted the importance of dynamic study of single proteins in live cells for understanding the functions of antimicrobial agents in bacteria. IMPORTANCE As so-called "superbug" bacteria resistant to commonly prescribed antibiotics have become a global threat to public health in recent years, noble metals, such as silver, in various forms have been attracting broad attention due to their antimicrobial activities. However, most of the studies in the existing literature have relied on the traditional bioassays for studying the antimicrobial mechanism of silver; in addition, temporal resolution is largely missing for understanding the effects of silver on the molecular dynamics inside bacteria. Here, we report our study of the antimicrobial effect of silver ions at the nanoscale on the diffusive dynamics of histone-like nucleoid-structuring (H-NS) proteins in live bacteria using singleparticle- tracking photoactivated localization microscopy. This work highlights the importance of dynamic study of single proteins in live cells for understanding the functions of antimicrobial agents in bacteria. © 2020 American Society for Microbiology.Antimicrobial mechanism; Diffusion; DNA binding; Single-molecule tracking; Superresolution fluorescence microscopyAntimicrobial agents; Bacteria; DNA; Dynamics; Electrophoretic mobility; Health risks; Metal ions; Molecular dynamics; Silver; Silver compounds; Anti-microbial activity; Anti-microbial effects; Antimicrobial mechanisms; Electrophoretic mobility shift assay; Histone-like nucleoid structuring proteins; Isothermal titration calorimetry; Plausible mechanisms; Single-particle tracking; Proteins; antibiotics; antimicrobial activity; bacterium; bioassay; cation; cell component; detection method; DNA; protein; Escherichia coli protein; histone; ion; silver; chemistry; Escherichia coli; gel mobility shift assay; genetics; metabolism; Electrophoretic Mobility Shift Assay; Escherichia coli; Escherichia coli Proteins; Histones; Ions; Silverhistone, 9062-68-4; silver, 7440-22-4; Escherichia coli Proteins; Histones; Ions; SilverNational Science Foundation, NSF; Directorate for Engineering, ENG: 1826642World Health Statistics 2014 (2014), World Health Organization, Geneva, Switzerland; Allen, H.K., Trachsel, J., Looft, T., Casey, T.A., Finding alternatives to antibiotics (2014) Ann N Y Acad Sci, 1323, pp. 91-100; François, B., Jafri, H.S., Bonten, M., Alternatives to antibiotics (2016) Intensive Care Med, 42, pp. 2034-2036; Alexander, J.W., History of the medical use of silver (2009) Surg Infect (Larchmt), 10, pp. 289-292; Agnihotri, S., Mukherji, S., Mukherji, S., Size-controlled silver nanoparticles synthesized over the range 5-100 nm using the same protocol and their antibacterial efficacy (2014) RSC Adv, 4, pp. 3974-3983; Bao, H., Yu, X., Xu, C., Li, X., Li, Z., Wei, D., Liu, Y., New toxicity mechanism of silver nanoparticles: promoting apoptosis and inhibiting proliferation (2015) PLoS One, 10, p. e0122535; Geethalakshmi, R., Sarada, DVL., Characterization and antimicrobial activity of gold and silver nanoparticles synthesized using saponin isolated from Trianthema decandra L (2013) Ind Crops Prod, 51, pp. 107-115; Kim, J.S., Kuk, E., Yu, K.N., Kim, J-H., Park, S.J., Lee, H.J., Kim, S.H., Cho, M-H., Antimicrobial effects of silver nanoparticles (2007) Nanomedicine (Lond), 3, pp. 95-101; Le Ouay, B., Stellacci, F., Antibacterial activity of silver nanoparticles: a surface science insight (2015) Nano Today, 10, pp. 339-354; Maiti, S., Krishnan, D., Barman, G., Ghosh, S.K., Laha, J.K., Antimicrobial activities of silver nanoparticles synthesized from Lycopersicon esculentum extract (2014) J Anal Sci Technol, 5, p. 40; Pal, S., Tak, Y.K., Song, J.M., Doe. the antibacterial activity of silver nanoparticles depend on the shape of the nanoparticle?

The diagnosis of POTA was carried out by FTIR and NMR analysis. Inhibitor performance was investigated using mass loss technique. POTA was acted as a moderate corrosion inhibitor for low carbon steel in 1 M hydrochloric acidic solution with efficiency more than 70%. The inhibitor performance was attributed to the formation of an adsorption layer on the low carbon steel surface. The mechanism of inhibitor adsorption on the low carbon steel surface was according to the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The value of adsorption heat was within the range of chemical adsorption. Quantum chemical studies were adopted as a theoretical tool to clarify the mechanism of inhibition and to support the experimental part. © 2019, The Tunisian Chemical Society and Springer Nature Switzerland AG.Corrosion;

The general formula for the temperature dependence of the equilibrium magnetization of the system is presented. The ferrimagnetic core-shell nanosystem shows a compensation point when the exchange interactions are changed for different values of the single-ion anisotropies of shell sublattices and core ones, respectively. So, one can examine interesting phenomena are compensation behaviors and the free energy of the nanosystem, where these phenomena found that the mixed-spin square Blume-Capel Ising nanosystem which is being considered has two compensation temperatures in the range of −0.8≤DB|J1|≤−0.4, respectively. © 2020 Elsevier LtdBlume-capel ising model; Compensation point; Crystal field; Magnetization; Nanowire system; Square latticeFerrimagnetism; Free energy; Ion exchange; Ising model; Magnetization; Nanowires; Temperature distribution; Compensation points; Compensation temperature; Crystal fields; Equilibrium magnetization; Mean field approximation; Single ion anisotropy; Square lattices; Temperature dependence; NanosystemsPuntes, V.F., Krishnan, K.M., Alivisatos, A.P., (2001) Science, 291, p. 2115; Sellmyer, D.J., Zheng, M., Skomski, R., (2001) J.

Although these by-products are a good source of various nutritional compounds, they represent the main disposal problem for the food industry. Wheat bran, one of the main by-products of the wheat milling industry, contains more than 15% high-quality proteins. However, these proteins are present in a form which is poorly digested as they are enclosed within a matrix of cell wall polysaccharides. About 15.5 million tonnes of usable protein could be recovered from bran if a commercial extraction process can be made viable. The purpose of this work was to extract protein from durum wheat bran using an alkaline acid method to study its nutritional and functional properties with the goal of using it as a fortifying material in cereal-based foods such as pasta and bread. Findings: Durum wheat bran protein concentrate (WBPC) was prepared by using an alkaline extraction method (pH 9.5 for two hours) followed by isoelectric precipitation (pH 4.2). Chemical, nutritional, and functional properties of WBPC were obtained. WBPC had a protein content of ~61% (protein yield 20.5%–24.8%), containing also lipids, fiber, and small quantities of starch. WBPC was enriched in phytosterols compared to wheat bran (11.59 vs. 5.14 mg/g) with β-sitosterol the predominant (4.37 mg/g). WBPC was also enriched in all the amino acids compared to bran, especially lysine and threonine. WBPC retained some phenolic acids, but at an eightfold lower quantity than in bran and retained about half the antioxidant activity (DPPH) of bran. WBPC showed excellent functional properties in terms of high solubility over a wide range in pH and good water and fat absorption capacity. The main protein components were albumin and globulin proteins. Conclusion: The extraction method used produced a protein concentrate in reasonable yield with high protein content enriched in essential amino acids and phytosterols compared to wheat bran with good functional properties and phenolic acids and antioxidant potential. Significance and novelty: The nutritional and functional properties of WBPC make it a promising ingredient for various food products such as cereal and baked foods, processed meat, and beverages. © 2019 Cereals & Grains Associationamino acids; Durum wheat bran; functional properties; phenolic acids; phytosterol; protein concentrateNSW Department of Primary Industries, DPI; University of New England, UNEThis research was supported by the University of New England and NSW Department of Primary Industries, Australia.

Chasib K.F.55777449300;An investigation on the feasibility of using mixed Reversible ionic liquids for extraction of Kerogen from oil shale2020Egyptian Journal of Petroleum2915357310.1016/j.ejpe.2019.10.004https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85075401810&doi=10.1016%2fj.ejpe.2019.10.004&partnerID=40&md5=ddbe25e7ac525aa85e4a0304867faf16Petroleum & Gas Engineering Department, Collage of Engineering, University of Thi Qar, Thi Qar, IraqChasib, K.F., Petroleum & Gas Engineering Department, Collage of Engineering, University of Thi Qar, Thi Qar, IraqNumerous of the separation issue usually accompanying with traditional ionic liquids can solve with Reversible ionic liquids. It can be forth and reversed back between ionic and molecular forms empowering superficial separations by means of considerable changes in situ property. This leads to actually sustainable processes. A comprehension of the systems phase behavior gives frameworks into the ability of separation. To our knowledge, the experimental information available in the literature for mixtures containing the pair Kerogen-Reversible Ionic Liquids (RevIL) is limited. Thus the objective of the current investigation is to produce data for Kerogen with different Reversible Ionic Liquids RevIL solvents to aid the extraction efficiency. The samples of Oil Shale collected from real Iraqi sedimentary rock deposits. Four Reversible Ionic Liquids solvents 3-(triethoxysilyl)-propylammonium 3-(triethoxysilyl)-propyl carbamate (TESAC), (3-(tripropylsilyl)-propylammonium 3-(tripropylsilyl)-propyl carbamate (TPSAC), 3-(trimethoxysilyl)-propylammonium 3-(trimethoxysilyl)-propyl carbamate (TMSAC), 3-(triethylsilyl)-propylammonium 3-(triethylsilyl)-propyl carbamate (TEtSAC)) are derived from carbon dioxide which reacts reversibly with silylated amine molecular liquids to produce ionic liquids. The efficiency of four Reversible Ionic Liquids (TEtSAC, TMSAC, TPSAC, and TESAC) and for mixed Reversible ionic liquid (Binary mixtures) as a selective solvent in the kerogen extraction from oil shale was investigated. The extraction efficiency was found to be more dependent on the basicity strength of hydrogen bond of the RevIL. It was found that higher extraction efficiencies are accompanied with higher hydrogen bond basicity. Four single RevILs and three binary mixtures (RevIL) to extract the Kerogen from oil shale is used. The study shows that the highest Kerogen extraction efficiency of 90.2% and 97.9% respectively, can be achieved by TESAC and (TESAC + TMSAC) respectively. One mixed binary solvent (TESAC + TMSAC) has the highest distribution coefficient, extraction efficiency and selectivity and greatest variation between its density and boiling point and those of Kerogen is selected. Therefore it can be considered as an excellent extracting solvent for Kerogen from oil shale. © 2019 Egyptian Petroleum Research InstituteExtraction efficiency; Hydrogen bond basicity; Kerogen; Oil shale; Reversible ionic liquidsFenton, M.D., Henning, H., Ryden, R.L., Oil Shale, Tar Sands and Related Materials (1981), American Chemical Society Washington, D.C; Yen, T.F., Chilingarian, G.V., Oil Shale (1976), Elsevier Amsterdam; Knaus, E., Killen, J., Biglarbigi, K., Peter, C., An overview of oil shale resource.

To evaluate these parameters effects 26 batch experiments were conducted. Which included: NaOH pretreatment (doses: 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, and 0.4 mol/L and durations: 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 h), TS content (4, 6, 8, 10%), S/I (15, 20, 25, and 30%), and pH (6.5, 7.0, 7.5, and 8.0). Also, the kinetics of biogas production was studied by using three models: first order kinetic, Cone, and modified Gompertz models. It was found that the optimum conditions were: NaOH dose with 0.2 mol/L, NaOH duration for 10 h, TS content with 8%, S/I ratio with 20%, and pH of 7.5. These optimum situations gave the highest production with 616.2, 644.0, 1968.4, 1467.2, and 1488.6 mL/gVS, respectively. Cone model showed the best fit followed by modified Gompertz model and finally first order kinetic model. These results proved the applicability of mango leaves as a good source for renewable methane-rich energy, and the impact of NaOH pretreatment, TS, S/I, and pH on the biogas/methane yield. © 2018, Springer Nature B.V.Kinetic models; Mango leaves; NaOH pretreatment; Substrate to inoculum ratio; Total solid contentBiogas; Fruits; Kinetic parameters; Kinetic theory; pH effects; Sodium hydroxide; Substrates; First order kinetics; First-order kinetic models; Kinetic models; Mango leaves; Modified-Gompertz model; NaOH pretreatment; Optimum conditions; Total solid content; Anaerobic digestionSchizophrenia Research Fund, SRF; Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, MHE&SR; National Natural Science Foundation of China, NSFC: 21676112; Huazhong University of Science and Technology, HUST; Fundamental Research Funds for the Central Universities: 2017KFKJFP002The authors would like to acknowledge the financial supports of National Natural Science Foundation of China (No. 21676112), Iraqi Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, Mustansiryiah University.

In this paper, qualities of barrel shaped waveguides with metamaterials are contemplated. Likewise, just because, half breed modes are examined, and a few new ends in cross breed mode conduct are drawn. Especially, conditions under which the crossover mode isolates into the transverse electric and transverse attractive (n=0) modes are acquired. For incredibly isotropic round and hollow waveguide where the permittivity in medium (1) is negative while the penetrability in medium (2) is negative.

Atterberg limits were developed by a Swedish scientist at the early 1900's called Atterberg. These limits could express the consistency of fine-grained soils due to variety of water content. These limits divide the soil into four major states, solid, semi-solid, plastic, and liquid state. According to American Standard for Testing and Materials (ASTM), to check liquid limit and plastic limit tests for a soil, the soil should be dried before the test for preparation purpose. ASTM specified two ways to dry the soil specimens, oven dry and air weather dry and both should give same results. Most of engineers will go with dry oven method to speed up the specimen preparation process assuming there is no any difference between these two methods of drying. In this research, the effect of the drying method has been studied. The results showed that the drying method has a significant effect on the liquid and plastic limits and then on the classification of soils. The soil specimens of this research were brought from all over Iraq cities to ensure studying different soils that could exhibits different behaviors. © 2020 IOP Publishing Ltd.

Clinical manifestations of the infection may range from asymptomatic to chronic. Strongyloides cause hyperinfection syndrome and dissemination in individuals with impaired cell-mediated immunity due to its ability to proliferate within the host that may increase the mortality rate up to 87%. The diagnosis of hyperinfection syndrome is difficult to establish and entails a high level of suspicion. The objective of the present study was to measure the expression level of C-type lectin gene coding to protein biomarker candidates from the excretory/secretory (ES) products of the infective filariform larva that can be used as diagnostic indicators for early hyperinfection syndrome in strongyloidiasis. An experimental study was carried out to induce hyperinfection of L3 larvae of S. ratti in experimentally immunosuppressed Wistar rats using prednisolone, a corticosteroid immunosuppressive drug. Prednisolone treatment resulted in a significant increase in the parasitic intensities. Relative semi-quantitative real-time PCR was performed to compare the expression level of the C-type lectin's gene between treated and non-treated groups with this drug. C-type lectin gene showed significantly higher expression levels in the treated samples. The study concluded that C-type lectin expression level was successfully measured and could be used as a diagnostic biomarker during early hyperinfection syndrome in strongyloidiasis. © Annals of Tropical Medicine & Public Health S498C-type lectin; Hyperinfection; QPCR; Strongyloidiasisbiological marker; c type lectin; lectin; prednisolone; unclassified drug; animal experiment; animal model; animal tissue; Article; comparative study; controlled study; early diagnosis; experimental study; gene expression level; gene expression profiling; hyperinfection syndrome; immune deficiency; infections associated with other infections or conditions; microfilaria (nematode larva); nonhuman; quantitative analysis; rat; real time polymerase chain reaction; Strongyloides ratti; strongyloidiasis; transcriptomics; Wistar ratprednisolone, 50-24-8Barros, N, Montes, M., Infection and Hyperinfection with Strongyloidesstercoralis: Clinical Presentation, Etiology of Disease, and Treatment Options (2014) Curr Trop.

The novelty of the proposed model is that it is aimed at providing demanded values of QoS indicators such as flow rate and average packet delay taking into account the self-similarity of data traffic when calculating average packet delay in the link, which was also used in formation of the metric tensor. Providing the required numerical values of the QoS indicators was achieved by introducing into the model the corresponding Quality of Service ensuring conditions. The numerical research results for the data traffic flows with different values of QoS indicators confirmed the adequacy of the obtained solutions. © 2020 IEEE.end-to-end delay; flow-based model; load balancing; multipath routing; packet rate; QoS; self-similar traffic; tensor network modelBalancing; Tensors; Average packet delays; Data traffic; Guaranteed QOS; Metric tensor; Numerical research; Numerical values; Self-similar traffic; Self-similarities; Quality of serviceDodd, A.Z., (2019) The Essential Guide to Telecommunications (Essential Guide Series, , Prentice Hall; 6 edition; Parker, P.M., (2019) The 2021-2026 World Outlook for Software-Defined Wide Area Network (SD-WAN) Appliances, , ICON Group International Inc; Blokdyk, G., (2018) Managed Hybrid WAN SD-WAN the Ultimate Step-By-Step Guide, , 5STARCooks; Goransson, P., Black, C., Culver, T., Software defined networks: A comprehensive approach (2016) Morgan Kaufmann; Janevski, T., (2019) QoS for Fixed and Mobile Ultra-Broadband, , Wiley IEEE Press; Carthern, C., Wilson, W., Rivera, N., Bedwell, R., (2015) Cisco Networks: Engineers' Handbook of Routing, , Switching, and Security with IOS, NX-OS, and ASA.

The aim of any speed controller is to take main signal that represent the reference speed and to drive the framework at that reference speed. This paper exhibits the design, simulation and control of synchronous reluctance motor (SynRM). In addition, the motor speed is controlled by utilizing a conventional PID controller that has been used from the cascaded structure. The Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) was used to find the best parameters of the PID controller. Lead-Lag controller presents from the cascaded controller as the following period of control. The Space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) plot has been proposed to control the motor and make the motor work with no rotor confine contingent upon the info parameters that utilization in the simulation. An examination between both of PID tuned and PSO tuned controller affirms that the PSO gives dazzling control highlights to the motor speed and have an edge over the physically changing controller. Thus, this paper present investigation and simulation for the most precise procedures to control the speed reaction and torque reaction of synchronous reluctance motor (SynRM). © 2020. CBIORE-IJRED.

The structures studied are In. 93Tl. 07Sb, In. 33Tl. 67P, In. 85Tl. 15As/ GaAs, and In0.8Tl0.2N. Some parameters of the structures, like band-edge discontinuity, are not determined, yet. Structure parameters, energy subbands, absorption, and quantum efficiency (QE) spectra are calculated. High QE was obtained with the first structure which can be tuned at the required wavelength. High QE is obtained for the structures In. 93Tl. 07Sb and In. 33Tl. 67P when the junction depth is comparable to or less than the hole diffusion length (Lp) , while for the other two structures (In. 85Tl. 15As and In0.8Tl0.2N) the junction depth must be larger than the hole diffusion length. The proposed photodetectors are covering the infrared range 3000–12000 nm which have an important applications. © 2020, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.Absorption spectrum; Long wavelength infrared photodetectors; Quantum dot; Quantum efficiency; Thallium-based structuresAbsorption spectra; Absorption spectroscopy; Gallium arsenide; III-V semiconductors; Indium compounds; Infrared radiation; Nanocrystals; Nitrogen compounds; Photodetectors; Photons; Semiconductor quantum dots; Thallium; Band edge; Hole diffusion length; Infrared range; Junction depth; Long wavelength infrared photodetectors; Quantum-dot photodetectors; Structure parameter; Work study; Quantum efficiencyAbdullah, M., Noori, F.T.M., Al-Khursan, A.H., Millimeter waves from frequency generation and optical rectification in quantum dot structure (2016) Opt.

The transport properties of the single pyrene molecule with four configurations are investigated using a steady-state theoretical model. We calculate the transmission probability and the electric current for the structure (1, 8), the structure (1, 7), the structure (1, 5) and the structure (1, 4). By applying a gate voltage on the pyrene molecule, we calculate the thermoelectric properties. The thermoelectric and electron transport properties can be controlled by quantum interference, the contact geometry and the gate voltage. The asymmetric behavior and the splitting of resonances in the transmission spectrum occur due to applying a gate voltage on the pyrene molecule. As a result, the structures (1, 5) and (1, 7) have a maximum value of the figure of merit reaching to 0.8 at the Fermi level. According to the results, the structures (1, 5) and (1, 7) can be act as promising thermoelectric applications in molecular electronics. © 2019 The Physical Society of the Republic of China (Taiwan)Electron transport properties; Single pyrene molecule; Thermoelectric properties; Transmission probabilityErnzerhof, M., Bahmann, H., Goyer, F., Zhuang, M., Rocheleau, P., Electron transmission through aromatic molecules (2006) J.

Full-scale beams were prepared and tested under four-point static loads to evaluate the effects of damage location in the concrete member, joint location and internal surface coating of the jacket. The results showed that the behaviour of the repaired system is governed by the tensile cracking of the grout and failing of teeth at the joint. The FRP jacket is found to be more effective in repairing concrete members under flexural load when the damage is located at the top than at the bottom of the member. This effectiveness can be further increased by placing the joint of the composite jacket away from the compression zone. Moreover, the provision of epoxy and coarse aggregates inside the jacket surface resulted in better stress distribution and cracks propagation in the grout than the one without. Finally, a simplified fibre model analysis which considers the confined tensile and compressive properties of the grout reliably predicted the flexural capacity of the damaged beams repaired with the FRP jacket. © 2019 Elsevier LtdComposite repair system; Damaged concrete beams; FRP joint; Prefabricated FRP composite jacketAggregates; Concrete beams and girders; Concrete buildings; Concrete construction; Cracks; Fiber reinforced plastics; Grouting; Mortar; Repair; Composite jackets; Composite repair; Compressive properties; Cracks propagation; Damaged concrete beams; Fibre reinforced polymers; FRP composite; Internal surface coatings; Reinforced concreteWest Virginia University, WVUThe authors gratefully acknowledge Joinlox™ Pty.

Convolvulus plants are broadly distributed all over the world and has been used for many centuries as herbal medicine. Convolvulus genus contains various phytochemicals such as flavonoids, alkaloids, carbohydrates, phenolic compounds, mucilage, unsaturated sterols or terpenes, resin, tannins, lactones, and proteins. This review highlights the phytochemical composition, antimicrobial and antioxidant activities, application as food preservative, traditional medicine use, anticancer activities, and clinical effectiveness in human of Convolvulus plants. All the parts of Convolvulus plants possess therapeutic benefits; preliminary pharmacological data validated their use in traditional medicine. However, further preclinical and clinical experiments are warranted before any application in human health. © 2019 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.anticancer; antimicrobial; antioxidant; Convolvulus; food preservative; pharmacological properties; traditional usesalkaloid; antiinfective agent; antineoplastic agent; antioxidant; carbohydrate; convolvine; Convolvulus althaeoides extract; Convolvulus arvensis extract; Convolvulus pilosellifolius extract; Convolvulus prostratus extract; flavonoid; food preservative; herbaceous agent; lactone; phenol derivative; phytochemical; phytosterol; plant extract; plant medicinal product; plant protein; plant resin; tannin; terpene; unclassified drug; antiinfective agent; antineoplastic agent; antioxidant; phytochemical; plant extract; antimicrobial activity; antineoplastic activity; antioxidant activity; chemical composition; clinical effectiveness; Convolvulus; Convolvulus althaeoides; Convolvulus arvensis; Convolvulus lineatus; Convolvulus pilosellifolius; Convolvulus prostratus; drug efficacy; drug structure; human; nonhuman; preservation; Review; traditional medicine; animal; chemistry; classification; Convolvulus; medicinal plant; phytotherapy; Animals; Anti-Infective Agents; Antineoplastic Agents, Phytogenic; Antioxidants; Convolvulus; Food Preservatives; Humans; Medicine, Traditional; Phytochemicals; Phytotherapy; Plant Extracts; Plants, Medicinallactone, 1338-03-0; tannin, 1401-55-4; Anti-Infective Agents; Antineoplastic Agents, Phytogenic; Antioxidants; Food Preservatives; Phytochemicals; Plant ExtractsComisión Nacional de Investigación Científica y Tecnológica, CONICYT: PIA/APOYO CCTE AFB170007This work was supported by CONICYT PIA/APOYO CCTE AFB170007.Abdolshahi, A., Naybandi-Atashi, S., Heydari-Majd, M., Salehi, B., Kobarfard, F., Ayatollahi, S.A., Sharifi-Rad, J., Antibacterial activity of some Lamiaceae species against Staphylococcus aureus in yoghurt-based drink (Doogh) (2018) Cellular and Molecular Biology (Noisy-le-Grand, France), 64 (8), pp. 71-77; Acevedo, P., (2017) Guide to the genera of lianas and climbing plants in the neotropics acanthaceae, , Natural Museum of Natural History, Natural Museum of Natural History.Washington, D.C.

The aim of this research is to develop a new automatic method for EEG sleep stages classification based on a statistical model and weighted brain networks. Methods: Each EEG segment is partitioned into a number of blocks using a sliding window technique. A set of statistical features are extracted from each block. As a result, a vector of features is obtained to represent each EEG segment. Then, the vector of features is mapped into a weighted undirected network. Different structural and spectral attributes of the networks are extracted and forwarded to a least square support vector machine (LS-SVM) classifier. At the same time the network's attributes are also thoroughly investigated. It is found that the network's characteristics vary with their sleep stages. Each sleep stage is best represented using the key features of their networks. Results: In this paper, the proposed method is evaluated using two datasets acquired from different channels of EEG (Pz-Oz and C3-A2) according to the R&K and the AASM without pre-processing the original EEG data. The obtained results by the LS-SVM are compared with those by Naïve, k-nearest and a multi-class-SVM. The proposed method is also compared with other benchmark sleep stages classification methods. The comparison results demonstrate that the proposed method has an advantage in scoring sleep stages based on single channel EEG signals. Conclusions: An average accuracy of 96.74% is obtained with the C3-A2 channel according to the AASM standard, and 96% with the Pz-Oz channel based on the R&K standard. © 2019EEG single channel; Sleep stages; Statistical model; Weighted networksComplex networks; Electroencephalography; Electrophysiology; Support vector machines; Least square support vector machines; Single channels; Sleep stage; Sleep stages classifications; Sliding window techniques; Statistical features; Statistical modeling; Weighted networks; Sleep research; article; controlled study; electroencephalogram; electroencephalography; human; least square analysis; nerve cell network; sleep stage; support vector machine; database management system; procedures; statistical model; Database Management Systems; Electroencephalography; Humans; Models, Statistical; Sleep Stages; Support Vector MachineUniversity of Southern Queensland, USQAuthors would like to thank University of Southern Queensland for its support.

The aim in this work is to improve the quality of the machined surface of the by controlling the main input parameters of the turning process for aluminum and steel materials. The effect of the machining parameters on surface roughness was studied using the orthogonal L9 Taguchi method. Four process parameters chosen were the length of the specimen (L), diameter of the specimen (D), feed rate (F), and depth of cut (T). The optimization method was performed using the signal to calculate noise ratio (S / N) for the changing response of all experiments. The results were analyzed using the analysis of variance (ANOVA). The main conclusion of this work is that F and T are the most important factors and can influence the machined surface quality in terms of surface roughness, whereas the other factors are insignificant. The minimum surface roughness for aluminum is 1.03 μm and 5.02 μm for steel specimens, which were obtained using a more suitable set of parameters with values of T 0.5 mm, F 0.5 RPM., L1000 mm, and D 40 mm. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Machining parameters; S/N ratio; Surface roughness; Taguchi methodKalpakjian, S., Schmid, S., (2008) Manufacturing Processes for Engineering Materials, p. 33; Rewatkar, S.A., Hatekar, Y.K., Shahu, S.R., A review on optimization of cutting parameters for surface roughness in facing process using Taguchi method (2018) IJEDR, 6, pp. 540-543; Suhail, A.H., Ismail, N., Wong, S.V., Jalil, N.A., Optimization of cutting parameters based on surface roughness and assistance of workpiece surface temperature in the turning process (2010) American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, 3 (1), pp. 102-108; Sahu, K.P., Sahu, K.N., Ankit, D., Optimization of Cutting Parameters by Turning Operation in Lathe Machine (2017) International Journal of Mechanical and Production Engineering, 5, pp. 46-51; Bartarya, G., Choudhury, S.K., Effect of cutting parameters on cutting force and surface roughness during finish hard turning AISI52100 grade steel (2012) Procedia CIrP, 1, pp. 651-656; Kumara, N.S., Shetty, A., Shetty, A., Ananth, K., Shetty, H., Effect of spindle speed and feed rate on surface roughness of Carbon Steels in CNC turning (2012) Procedia Engineering, 38; Cakir, M., Cihat, E., Ilker, D., Mathematical Modeling of Surface Roughness for Evaluating the Effects of Cutting Parameters and Coating Material (2009) Journal of Materials Processing Technology, 209; Yusuf, S., Ali, R., Surface Roughness Model for Machining Mild Steel with Coated Carbide Tool (2005) Materials & Design, 26; Kumbhar, Y.B., Waghmare, C.A., Tool Life and Surface Roughness Optimization of Pvd TiAlN/TiN Multilayer Coated Carbide Inserts in Semi Hard Turning of Hardened EN31 Alloy Steel under Dry Cutting Conditions (2013) International Journal of Advanced Engineering Research and Studies; Kamarudin, S.K., Rahim, E.A., Saparudin, A., Hassan, S., Tool Wear and Surface Roughness in Turning AISI 8620 using Coated Ceramic Tool (2007) Proceedings of the World Congress on Engineering, 2; Mohamad, A.B., Siddiquee, A.N., Quadir, G.A., Khan, Z.A., Saini, V.K., Optimization of EDM process parameters using the Taguchi method International Conference on Applications and Design in Mechanical Engineering, pp. 27-28; Kumar, N.S., Simha, T.P.S., (2012) Experimental Investigation on Seismic Resistance of Recycled Concrete in Filled Steel Columns - Taguchi's Approach; Al-Dolaimy, K.A., Effect of Cutting Parameters on Surface Roughness in Turning Operations (2016) Al-Qadisiya Journal for Engineering Sciences, 9, pp. 442-449; Carvalho, S.R., Silva, S.M., Machado, A.R., Guimaraes, G., Temperature determination at the chip-tool interface using an inverse thermal model considering the tool and tool holder (2006) Journal of Materials Processing Technology, 179 (1-3), pp. 97-104; Abhan, L.B., Hameedullah, M., Chip-Tool Interface Temperature Prediction Model for Turning Process (2010) International Journal of Engineering Science and Technology, 2, pp. 382-393; Sunita, K., Shakti, B., An Optimization Process by Taguchi Method for Customer Satisfaction under Banking Sector (2018) International Journal of Computer and Mathematical Science, 7Institute of Physics Publishing3rd International Conference on Engineering Sciences, ICES 20194 November 2019 through 6 November 201915679217578981EnglishIOP Conf.

Snort is a Network Intrusion Detection System (NIDS) used in network security by staying on the edge of a network and performing deep packet checking on any packet logging in to the protected domain. The question of how much overhead is introduced into the network traffic by the introduction of real-time NIDS was thus investigated. A simulation methodology was used to implement experiments to evaluate the effect of Snort, measured by end-to-end delay-time introduced by the engine. These experiments proved that there is no noticeable effect on network traffic from such an introduction. IBM SPSS software version 24 was used in this study. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Defence In-Depth; NIDS; Overhead; SnortNancy, A., Syed Zeeshan, H., A Closer Look at Intrusion Detection System for Web Applications (2018) Security and Communication Networks, 2018, p. 27; Koziol, J., (2003) Intrusion Detection with Snort; Baker, A.R., Caswell, B., Poor, M., (2004) Snort 2.1 Intrusion Detection; Baker, A.R., Esler, J., (2007) Snort IDS and IPS Toolkit; Attig, M., Lockwood, J., (2005) Proc. of IEEE COMPUTER SOCIETY SIFT: Snort Intrusion Filter for TCP; Wu, Y.-S., Foo, B., Mei, Y., Bagchi, S., Collaborative Intrusion Detection System (CIDS): A Framework for Accurate and Efficient IDS (2003) Proc. of 19th Annual Computer Security Applications Conf (ACSAC 2003), IEEE; Debar, H., Dacier, M., Wespi, A., (1999) Towards A Taxonomy of Intrusion Detection Systems, 31 (8), p. 805; (2007) Understanding Delay in Packet Voice Networks, , http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/788/voip/delay-details.html, Cisco; Roesch, M., (1999) Snort-Lightweight Intrusion Detection for Networks, , http://www.snort.org/docs/lisapaper.txt; Caruso, L.C., Guuindani, G., Schmitt, H., Neycalazans, Moraes, F., SPP-NIDS-A Sea of Processors Platform for Network Intrusion Detection Systems (2007) Proc. of 18th IEEE/IFIP Int.

Twisting profiles are utilized in most mechanical fields, including car design, aeronautic design, plant building, fluid transport, heat exchangers and many other sectors. Ovalization affects the nature of cylinder bowing. It occurs in the cross segment of the cylinder in the wake of bowing when the cylinder has twisted without a mandrel, or with a change of mandrel structure. This paper examines the ovalization phenomenon in cylinder bowing with turning draw twisting procedure and utilizing distinctive material properties (types of material: 1.4301(2x40), 1.0036(2x40), 6060T7(2.5x40), 1.4301(4x40), 1.0038(4x40), 1.5415(7.1x51) and 1.7380(7.1x51)). The finite element method (FEM) and experimental tests are applied to compute the ovalization proportions. This investigation helps to distinguish the impact of the material properties. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Material Properties; Ovalization; Rotary Draw Bending (RDB); Tube bendingYang, H., Sun, Z.C., Li, M.Q., Advanced plastic processing technology and research progress on tube forming (2001) Journal of Plasticity Engineering, pp. 86-88; Engel, B., Hassan, H., Investigation of Neutral Axis Shifting in Rotary Draw Bending Processes for Tubes (2014) Steel Research Int.

Thus, development of solar panel cooling systems represents a new face of technology that may be used to improve power generation. Here, the reduction of solar panel temperature using an air-cooled heat sinks is studied numerically. The design of the heat sink comprises rectangular fins and rectangular fins with holes, made from a material with high thermal conductivity. The cooling efficiency is studied for different configurations of the heat sink, which are obtained by changing the fin numbers and hole distances. The numerical model is realized, using ANSYS-Fluent software, for a steady state whereby the ambient temperature is 25-35 °C, for different heat flux values. Increasing the number of fins and holes decreases the panel temperature. The reduction of panel temperature with fins is 50% compared to solar panels without fins. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Idoko, L., Anaya-Lara, O., McDonald, A., Enhancing PV modules efficiency and power output using multi-concept cooling technique (2018) Energy Reports, 4, pp. 357-369; Popovici, G., Valeriu, S., Dorin, T., Chereche, N.-C., Efficiency improvement of photovoltaic panels by using air cooled heat sinks (2016) Energy Procedial, 85, pp. 425-432; Gotmare, J.A., Borkar, D.S., Hatwar, P.R., Experimental Investigation of PV Panel with Fin Cooling under Natural Convection (2015) Int.

The regular operation of the PV system in an outdoor condition implies the need for a model that relate the environmental effects. This paper presents a new, simple, and efficient method for constructing the I-V characteristics for a PV cell incorporating the environmental conditions. The proposed model is based on the idea of dividing the voltage axis of the solar cell I-V characteristics using a fixed time interval. For each voltage interval point, a two-dimensional current matrix is calculated, corresponding different irradiance conditions and temperatures. Polynomial surface fitting is used to build sub-models for each voltage interval. The current two-dimensional matrix, for each point, is calculated by two different methods. The first method is based on linear interpolation of the measured I-V curves. The second method uses pre-extracted five parameters for the well known single diode model at a wide range of environmental conditions. The developed modelling technique provides accurate results compared with the measured data for a mono-crystalline solar cell. © 2020 Budapest University of Technology and Economics.

This paper considers the implicit form of the single diode model for solar cell to introduce and compare four new approaches for extracting the five characteristics parameters of PV cells/modules. Measured I-V curves for three different PV samples (mono-crystalline cell, polycrystalline module and amorphous module) under different irradiance conditions and temperatures were used to implement and validate each method. Numerical and optimisation methods were applied to solve different formulations of the single diode equivalent model. All methods are mathematically described, and the primary considerations when writing the MATLAB codes are highlighted. Comparison factors such as the mean absolute percentage error (MAPE), the algorithm convergence time (ACT), the coefficient of determination (R2) and the error at the maximum power point (δ), are used to evaluate each method. All proposed methods were verified, and the parameters were extracted with excellent performance. The method based on the least square fitting and solved by Newton–Raphson method provides the best results for the mono-crystalline sample compared to the other three methods while using particle swarm optimisation as a solving algorithm provides better results for the other two sample modules. The result of this work represents a guideline for extracting the five parameters of the single diode model from the measured solar cells/modules I-V curves. Although the SDM model does not describe the physical structure of the amorphous solar module, since this consists of a tandem p-i-n diode structure, the developed methods still deliver results with errors comparable to that of the single junction PV devices. © 2019 International Solar Energy SocietyI-V characteristics; Parameters extraction; Single diode model; Solar cellDiodes; Errors; Extraction; Least squares approximations; Numerical methods; Particle swarm optimization (PSO); Photovoltaic cells; Characteristics parameters; Coefficient of determination; IV characteristics; Mean absolute percentage error; Parameters extraction; Particle swarm optimisation; Poly-crystalline modules; Single-diode models; Solar cells; algorithm; electrode; extraction method; fuel cell; irradiance; numerical model; parameterization; photovoltaic system; solar powerEFOP-3.6.1-16-2016-00014; Budapesti Műszaki és Gazdaságtudományi Egyetem, BME: NKFIH-849-8/2019; Nemzeti Kutatási Fejlesztési és Innovációs Hivatal, NKFIHThe research reported in this paper was partially supported by the BME-Nanonotechnology FIKP grant (BME FIKP-NAT), the grant EFOP-3.6.1-16-2016-00014 and by the Science Excellence Program at BME under the grant agreement NKFIH-849-8/2019 of the Hungarian National Research, Development and Innovation Office.

However, deposition of fine ceramic-reinforced MMC clads is challenging due to the divergence of fine particles. This leads to a non-uniform distribution of reinforcements and reduced clad performance. The high laser reflectivity of some metals such as Al also limits material deposition efficiency. In this work, the effect of a powder satelliting process on improving laser-deposited Al–TiC clads on aluminium 6082-T6 substrates was investigated. A simple-blended feedstock was also deposited for comparison. The effect of process parameters of laser energy and powder deposition density on clad characteristics of clad area, dilution and porosity were evaluated, and optimised parameters were identified. Two deposition mechanisms are proposed to explain the differences in the behaviour of both feedstocks within LC. The satellited clads yielded an increase of 29% and 113% in the deposition efficiency and TiC fraction, respectively, compared to the blended clads. The satellited clads yielded a mean increase of 60% in matrix microhardness and a mean reduction of 64% in specific wear rate compared with the blended clads indicating a clear improvement in the mechanical properties. © 2019 Elsevier B.V.Aluminium; Composite; Hardness; Laser cladding; Satelliting; TiC; WearAluminum; Composite materials; Feedstocks; Hardness; Laser cladding; Metallic matrix composites; Powder metals; Reinforcement; Titanium carbide; Titanium compounds; Wear of materials; Ceramic reinforcements; Deposition efficiencies; Deposition mechanism; Material deposition; Matrix microhardness; Non-uniform distribution; Satelliting; Specific wear rates; DepositionEngineering and Physical Sciences Research Council, EPSRC: EP/L017482/1; Ministry of Higher Education, MOHEThe authors would like to thank the Iraqi ministry of higher education for financial support of Mr Al-Hamdani's studentship.

The investigated syntactic foams were manufactured by combining a packed bed of expanded glass particles with either an aluminium or a zinc matrix using infiltration casting. Uni-axial compressions tests were performed after submerging samples in a bath of liquid nitrogen with an equilibrium temperature of −196 °C. Both the solid matrix material and syntactic foam samples were tested. For comparison, room temperature reference data from the literature was obtained. In addition, the effect of thermal treatment on the mechanical behaviour of both alloys and their foams at cryogenic temperature was addressed. The results indicate significant embrittlement at cryogenic temperature; however, aluminium and its foams are less susceptible to this effect. © 2019 Elsevier B.V.Compressive testing; Cryogenic temperature; Deformation mechanisms; Mechanical properties; Metallic syntactic foamFoams; Liquefied gases; Mechanical properties; Packed beds; Syntactics; Zinc castings; Compressive testing; Cryogenic temperatures; Deformation mechanism; Equilibrium temperatures; Mechanical behaviour; Syntactic foams; Temperature reference; Uni-axial compression; CryogenicsBanhart, J., Manufacture, characterisation and application of cellular metals and metal foams (2001) Prog.

High productivity of external circular grinding operations with axial feed is ensured by simultaneous control of automatic stepwise cycles of radial and axial feeds in different sections of the shaft.Computed models have been developed; for given grinding cycles of radial and axial feed they allow to determine values of all main error types which are caused by the presence of initial radial run-out of the billet and elastic deformations of the technological system in three shaft sections (in reverse and non-reverse zones): diameter error, circularity deviation, radial run-out, cylindricity deviation, longitudinal section profile deviation, and total radial run-out. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Malkin, S., Guo, C., (2008) Grinding Technology: Theory and Applications of Machining with Abrasives; Lur'E, G.B., Optimizing the grinding cycle by adaptive control (1979) Mashinostroitel', 3, pp. 12-14; Guo, C., Malkin, S., (2008) Grinding Technology: Theory and Applications of Machining with Abrasives; Lee, T.S., Ting, T.P., Lin, Y.J., Htay, T., (2007) Intern.

This proposed project consists of two parts; the smart wristband and the mobile application. The smart wristband must contain the main sensors (Oximeter, Temperature and Humidity), which transfer the data of the Covid-19 patients to the mobile application. This application program consists of two components. Firstly, the patient information that is stored in the database, and secondly the sensors parameters (physiology and environment). The physiology parameters include the oxygen rate in the patient's blood and the patient's temperature. The environment parameters include the temperature and humidity. Also, are taken into consideration, the patients' daily activities that affect the measurements of the parameters. The core of the proposed project is the ontology and semantics web that has the stored dataset of effect parameters and the patient activity in location at the time observed. There are three types of responses of this proposed program (normal, alert, and emergency), which depend on the physiology parameters, the environment parameters and the human activities. © 16th International Middle Eastern Simulation and Modelling Conference 2020, MESM 2020.

This paper reports on the design of a novel technique based, instead, on the domain of graphs. The dimensionality of each single EEG channel is reduced using a segmentation technique, and each EEG channel is then mapped onto an undirected weighted graph. A set of structural and topological graph characteristics is extracted and investigated, and several machine learning techniques are utilized to categorize the graph's attributes. The results demonstrate that the use of graphs improves the quality of epileptic seizure detection. The proposed method can identify EEG abnormities that are difficult to detect accurately using other transformation techniques, especially when dealing with EEG big data. © 2021.

The advancement and innovation of educational technology such as using Facebook would offer new opportunities for the teaching and learning of languages. Therefore, it is important to assist students to learn the English language effectively through using technological tools. Facebook is an educational tool to improve students’ oral and written communication skills as it allows students to reflect on their own thoughts and attitudes. It is a review aims to show how Facebook as an innovative teaching method can develop students’ oral and written communication skills, In addition, this paper aims to evaluate the challenges and problems of this instructional perspective. It was concluded that the learners were in favour of using Facebook’ potential for improving English language proficiency. However, there are obstacles for Facebook use such as wasting of students' time and absence of the actual and direct communication and students' distraction by Facebook's other features. © 2019 DSR Publishers/University of Jordan.

Poly (maleic anhydride-co-methyl oleate) was prepared via the free radical polymerization of maleic anhydride with methyl oleate. The prepared copolymer was Characterized via FTIR and GPC and thermal analyses (TGA and DTA). TGA demonstrated that the prepared copolymer was thermally stable up to 146 °C. Electrochemical measurement tests, including potentiodynamic polarization tests, revealed that the prepared copolymer was successfully applied as an organic corrosion inhibitor for C-steel in 0.1 M HCl solution at 298 K, 308 K, 318 K and 328 K. Potentiodynamic polarization measurements revealed that this copolymer was a mixed-type corrosion inhibitor. Its inhibition efficiency was measured on the basis of potentiodynamic polariaztion curves via the electrochemical technique. Results demonstrated that the corrosion inhibition efficiency of poly(maleic anhydride-co-methyl oleate) increased with concentration and decreased with increasing temperature. Inhibition efficiency reached 94.8% with 20 ppm poly (maleic anhydride-co-methyl oleate) at 298 K. The adsorption of this copolymer on the C-steel surface was chemical adsorption and obeyed the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. © 2020 The Authors. Published by ESG (www.electrochemsci.org).

The study used the daily closing prices of six banks from Iraq Stock Exchange (ISE) over the period 1st Jan 2015 to 31 Dec 2017. The paper employed both symmetric and asymmetric models of different properties of "the Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroscedastic (GARCH)". Findings obtained by the study could not give proof of the presence of a positive risk premium in the marketplace.

A total of 485 interviewees were randomly selected and data was obtained by a questionnaire-based survey. The questions were about awareness of zoonosis, health management, the transmission of diseases by different domestic animal species and consumption of their products, awareness of animals pet management, the transmission of diseases by wild-animal diseases, the impact of natural disaster on zoonosis, and extension of government or private-sector zoonosis work. The results showed that meat (43.92 percent) is the main way of transmitting zoonotic disease, with egg (18.14 percent) and milk (13.61 percent), depending on the levels of awareness of the different interviewers. There was more or less a similar concern about pet animal care (23, 71%) and wildlife zoonotic disease (26, 69%). It was noted that 33.81 percent of respondents were aware of the zoonotic infection caused by natural disasters. The participants also suggested that the government or the private sector offered extension services on zoonotic infection were 34, 22 percent. Among all the respondents, animal departure workers and teachers were very aware of the zoonotic infection. Zoonosis awareness in livestock keepers was high, followed by the health workers, teachers, and others. The present research found that practitioners or non-health trainees are not aware of zoonotic diseases with low education history. Further research needs to be undertaken to test zoonotic prevention and control approaches in the field of study. © 2020, Advanced Scientific Research.

Algae isolate from different region of Al-Islah marshes of Thi-Qar provence southern of Iraq. The Endophytic Actinomycetes were isolated by Actnomycetes Isolation Agar (AIA) plate method after surface sterilization.The potent Endophytic Actinomycetes were characterized by morphologyical methods consist of macro and micro-scopic examinations. The mycelium structure, color and arrangement of conidiophores were observed by the oil immersion (100 X). Typical colonies from actinomycetes isolation agar (AIA) plates were identified and performed, the results were recorded. Various biochemical testes performed for the identification of potent isolates such as: Gram staining, IMVIC test, urease test oxidase, H2S production test and catalase test. The results showed that from A total of 13 Entophytic actinomycete (EA) Spp. ther was 4 isolates had shown varying morphological, physiological and biochemical characteristics. All these results with Bergeys Manual of Determinative Bacteriology and the organisms were identified. All the isolates were identified to belong the Entophytic actinomycetes Streptomycets sp. Identification of the strain was carried out by employing the taxonomical studies including the 16S rRNA sequence, From the results, it was suggested that use of these isolates to produce new antibiotics against pathogenic bacteria, fungi and other pathogens. © 2020, Advanced Scientific Research.

This study aims to investigate the effect of benzene exposure on some blood parameters of workers at several fuel stations in Thi-Qar province, as well as to reveal if the continuous exposure may induce an inflammatory response, which is reflected by changes in immune system. The study included two groups of males. The first group consists of 60 exposed workers at fuel stations in different locations in Thi-Qar province. The other group is the control group, which consists of 30 non exposed subjects, during the period from (December 2019 to May 2020). Methods. Hematological parameters (white blood cells and differential white blood cells) have been evaluated using a Whole Blood Analyzer Coulter (Emerald / Germany). Serum level of Interleukin-10 (IL-10) were estimated in all workers and non-exposed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

The antioxidant properties of herbal plants may open a new avenue to treat or relief many chronic diseases like Diabetes Mellitus, cardiac diseases and several health problem associated with heavy metal toxicity. Our study designed to examine the protecting efficacy of parsley seed extract (Petroselinum crispum) against cadmium chloride (CdCl2) toxicity to different vital organs of the male rats. The antioxidant properties of herbal plants may open a new avenue to treat or relief many chronic diseases like Diabetes Mellitus, cardiac diseases and several health problem associated with heavy metal toxicity. Forty Wister male rats divided into (4) equal groups: group1 was a negative control (drinking normal saline only), group (2) was treated with CdCl2 (200 mg /L water) and it was consider as positive control, group (3): rats given parsley extract daily at dose (500 mg /kg bw) orally as well as CdCl2 (200mg/L water), and group (4) rats were given parsley extract daily at dose (500 mg /kg bw) alone for 60 day. We evaluated the Total Cholesterol (TC), Triglyceride (Tg), Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), Very density lipoprotein cholesterol (VLDL-C), High density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), liver function assays (Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), Alkaline Phosphate (ALP) and the bilirubin concentrations. In addition, we measured the antioxidant markers like (reduced glutathione concentration (GSH), Superoxide dismutase (SOD), Malondialdehyde (MDA) and Peroxy nitrate radical) concentrations for all treated groups. Our results showed thecadmium treated-rats alone-developed a liver injury represented by significant increased in lipid profile (TC, TG, LDL-C and VLDL-C levels) with clear decreased in HDL-C level. Moreover, antioxidant and lipid peroxidation markers (GSH, SOD, MDA, and Peroxy nitrate radical) significantly reduced in-group (2) compared with group (1). In addition, the serum liver biomarkers (ALT,AST,ALP, and bilirubin) were elevated with clear declined in albumin concentration in-group 2. Furthermore, our results showed that parsley seed extract plus CdCl2 group showed a significant improvement in all parameters mentioned above compared to group2. Additionally, the histopathological section of liver in parsley treated-rats showed a dramatic improvement in hepatic morphology and disappearance of signs of CdCl2 toxicity like degeneration of hepatocytes with necrosis, inflammation, and cytological vacuolization. Our results concluded that the parsley extract has a potent an antioxidant and protective roles against the toxicity cadmium chloride. © 2020, Advanced Scientific Research.

Routine detection of V. cholerae infection can be achieved by isolation of the organism from stool sample on the selective medium, followed by biochemical tests and specific antibodies for serotyping and serogrouping. These methods are laborworking and time-consuming. Furthermore, they provide low sensitivity and specificity. Advanced diagnostic approaches for identification of V. cholerae, such as cell-counting techniques by immunoassay, PCR, and real-time PCR are also used. In addition to these strategies, nanotechnology including gold (Au) or silver nanoparticles and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) hold great promise for rapid, accurate, and cost-effective detection of pathogens. In recent years, composites based on golden-graphene nanoparticles have been synthesized using electrochemical methods. They are capable of detecting very low copy numbers of DNA from Vibrio spp. owing to the synergistic effect between the graphene and gold nanoparticles. Therefore, development of nanobiosensors using the gold nanoparticles combined the golden-graphene binary platform nanobiosensor that will open new avenues for the efficient V. cholerae identification.

Rossin College of Engineering and Applied Science, Lehigh University, Bethlehem, PA 18015, United StatesHigh-fidelity Large Eddy Simulations (LES) were conducted to characterize the spatial and temporal structure of turbulent flows in an industrial-sized Francis turbine running at 120% of the design flow rate. Injection at a 4% and 8% flow rate is applied and investigated as a mitigation method for pressureinduced fluctuations along the draft tube. Contours of velocity and vorticity in the draft tube are presented to examine the effects of water injection. Probes placed alongside the draft tube measure the pressure signal and compare both operational regimes to characterize the pressure fluctuations. The intensity of pressure fluctuations along the draft tube wall is an order of magnitude smaller compared to that at the center. As the injection is applied, the intensity of the pressure fluctuations along the draft tube wall is increased while the intensity of pressure fluctuations in the center of the draft tube is reduced. Pressure probes in the center of the draft tube measure an 86% to 57% reduction in amplitude for 4% to 8% flow rate injection, respectively. There is a 30% to 40% increase in fluctuations along the wall for 4% to 8% flow rate injection, respectively. These changes in flow structure are due to the dissipation of the vortex rope as the injection is applied. © 2020 ASME.Excessive flow rate; Francis turbine; LES model; Pressure fluctuations water injection controlFrancis turbines; Large eddy simulation; Probes; Tubes (components); Design flow rate; Effect of water; Mitigation methods; Pressure fluctuation; Pressure probes; Pressure signal; Temporal structures; Turbine operation; Flow rateNational Science Foundation, NSF: TG-CTS170051This work used the computational resources of the Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery Environment (XSEDE) through the National Science Foundation grant (TG-CTS170051).

Rossin College of Engineering and Applied Science, Lehigh University, Bethlehem, PA 18015, United StatesHigh-fidelity large eddy simulations (LES) were conducted to characterize the spatial and temporal structure of turbulent flows in an industrial-sized Francis turbine. The unit operated at 50% and 40% of the best efficiency design flowrate. Contours of vorticity, velocity, pressure, and iso-surfaces of Q-Criterion were presented to characterize the effects on the draft tube. Probes placed alongside the draft tube measure the pressure signal to investigate the flow-induced pressure fluctuations inside the turbine unit. The maximum intensity of pressure fluctuations at 50% partial load was 22.66% of the turbine head, while the strength of the pressure fluctuations was 26.36% at 40% partial load. A large number of unorganized smaller vortices observed in the draft tube contribute to the creation of pressure fluctuations. Two pressure modes can be easily recognized (1) high frequency with low amplitude pressure fluctuations and (2) low frequency with high amplitude fluctuations. These pressure fluctuations could be harmful to the structural integrity of the unit and also have undesirable influences on the operational stability of the hydro-turbines. © 2020 ASME.Francis turbine; LES simulations; Partial load; Pressure fluctuations; Vortex ropeFrancis turbines; High amplitudes; High frequency HF; Maximum intensities; Operational stability; Pressure fluctuation; Pressure modes; Pressure signal; Temporal structures; Large eddy simulationNational Science Foundation, NSF: TG-CTS170051through the National Science Foundation grant (TG-CTS170051).

Clinical symptoms associated with cardiovascular disorders differ between individuals and can include sinus tachycardia in both inactive and active formal and atrial arrhythmias, in specific atrial fibrillation in ageing persons with pre-existing heart disorders. Conventional Echo is a broadly presented procedure to identify subclinical heart failure in hyperthyroidism patients. Aim of study: To evaluate left and right function of ventricles in hyperthyroidism young patients used tissue Doppler appearance. Methods: A 45 case of hyperthyroidism and 45 healthy control with age more than 18 years and overt hyperthyroidism that confirmed by endocrinologist were included in this study that conducted between the first of March and the first of June of 2020. The Blood samples were drawn for all participants for Serum thyroid hormone levels measurement. The Echocardiography was performed with participants positioned at left lateral decubitus according to protocol of ASE guide lines with the use of GE Medical System Vivid nine ultrasound machine equipped with transducer a with frame rate 60-80 frame\sec. TDI imaging needs great frame rates (>100fps) for image acquirement with outstanding temporal determination. Result: Among echocardiographic parameters there were no significant differences in EF% between two groups (p=0.62), TDI examination for left ventricle shown that: S´, E/A and e´ were significantly decrease in cases than control participants, Tei index and E/e´ were significantly advanced in cases than control persons and a´ no any significant difference between normal persons and hyperthyroidism. TDI examination for right ventricle shown that: S´, E/A, e´ and E/e´ were no any significant difference between normal persons and hyperthyroidism, Tei index and a´ no any significant difference between normal persons and hyperthyroidism. Conclusions: Thyroid derangement especially hyperthyroidism, have a significant effect on cardiac functions. TDI measurements are useful, inexpensive, and easy to perform indices for detection of early LV and RV systolic and diastolic functional abnormalities in patients with hyperthyroidism. © 2020, Venezuelan Society of Pharmacology and Clinical and Therapeutic Pharmacology.

However, it is called multiple pregnancies when more than one fetus involves. Pregnancy can be existed either by sexual connection or with the help of reproductive technology. Ordinarily, it endures around 40 weeks, or over 9 months, as determined from the last monthly period till delivery. On the other hand, the embryo can be defined as an evolving offspring over the first eight weeks post-conception; after that, it can be called a fetus till childbirth. The popular signs and symptoms of pregnancy might involve each of the missed period, inflated breasts, nausea with or without vomiting, repeated urination, and tiredness. A pregnancy test can be utilized for confirmation. The current study aimed to discuss the maternal medical outcomes after both: Caesarean section and natural vaginal childbirth. Results have shown that when the cases with cesarean and the normal delivery was compared in term of the adverse effects and the complications we find that there are no significant differences in term of normal blood loss while when the bleeding during and after delivery was investigated, we found the rate of it was significantly more in cesarean than in normal delivery, also fever was significantly higher in females who delivered in cesarean than who delivered with normal vaginal delivery. In conclusion, the incidence rate of cesarean section deliveries was increased compared to normal vaginal deliveries, so the complications and adverse effects that may be associated with the cesarean section need to be investigated and compared to what happens with normal vaginal delivery. © 2020, International Journal of Drug Delivery Technology.

This article then, investigates the position of paralinguistic factors: pace of delivery, pitch, intensity and pause pattern in King Martin Luther’s speech “Have a Dream” in political context. These factors carry attitude, psychological condition and emotional state of the speaker to the audience and affect their attitudes and emotions. These factors have been called the factors of delivery style because they can be used only in spoken language. These factors are the physical properties of speech and thus they are observable. These factors, thenwill be analyzed and studied with the help of van Dijk Model of CDA to answer To what extent the ideology of Martin Luther King Jr is reflected through the paralinguistic choices “I Have Dream”. In terms of the findings, the analysis found that persuasion is not the result of the use of the persuasive strategies in words and syntax alone as delivery style also plays an important role in persuasion. Pace of delivery along with pitch intensity and pause pattern are the main components of political speech delivery style for persuasive end. Moreover, the delivery style adds certain effect to other rhetorical strategies. Martin Luther King Jr. is a master of speech delivery style as he makes the best persuasive use of pace, pause, pitch and intensity in his speech. © 2020 All Rights ReservedCDA; Paralinguistic Features; Persuasion; Political DiscourseAlfayez, H., A Critical Discourse Analysis of Discursive Structures in a Political Text (2013) International Journal of Science and Advanced Technology, 3 (3), pp. 12-20; Brown, G., Brown, G.D., Brown, G.R., Gillian, B., Yule, G., (1983) Discourse analysis, , Cambridge university press; Fairclough, N., (1992) Discourse and social change, p. 10. , Cambridge: Polity press; Fairclough, N., (1995) Critical Discourse Analysis.

The efficiency of the considered methods is illustrated by some examples. The results obtained by the LFDTM are compared with the results obtained by the LFLVIM. We demonstrate that the two approaches are very effective and convenient for finding the approximate analytical solutions of PDEs with LFDOs. © 2020 InforMath Publishing Group/1562-8353 (print)/1813-7385 (online)/http://e-ndst.kiev.ua388Approximate solutions; Laplace equation; Local fractional differential transform method; Local fractional Laplace variational iteration methodJassim, H.

We present a case of a patient with acute coronary syndrome admitted for percutaneous coronary intervention to the left anterior descending artery. The straightforward procedure was challenged by multiple complications of coronary artery perforation, cardiac tamponade, stent loss, and ventricular fibrillation. The management was complicated by covered stent embolization into the left circumflex artery without a wire inside. We were able to retrieve the lost covered stent by re-accessing the lumen with a coronary guidewire followed by advancing a balloon distal to the stent and extraction of the whole system outside. The case illustrates the possibility of facing multiple complications in one procedure including the loss of covered stent and how to prevent and manage this serious complication. © 2020 SOLEN s.r.o..

The turnover of FA proteins plays a critical regulatory role in cancer cell migration. Plasma membrane lipids locally generated or broken down by different inositide kinases and phosphatase enzymes to activate and recruit proteins to specific regions in the plasma membrane. Presently, little attention has been given to the use of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2) and Phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P3) fluorescent biosensors in order to determine the spatiotemporal organisation of PtdIns(4,5)P2 and PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 within and around or during assembly and disassembly of FAs. In this study, specific biosensors were used to detect PtdIns(4,5)P2, PtdIns(3,4,5)P3, and FAs proteins conjugated to RFP/GFP in order to monitor changes of PtdIns(4,5)P2 and PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 levels within FAs. We demonstrated that the localisation of PtdIns(4,5)P2 and PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 were moderately correlated with that of FA proteins. Furthermore, we demonstrate that local levels of PtdIns(4,5) P2 increased within FA assembly and declined within FA disassembly. However, PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 levels remained constant within FAs assembly and disassembly. In conclusion, this study shows that PtdIns(4,5)P2 and PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 localised in FAs may be regulated differently during FA assembly and disassembly. © TÜBİTAK.Focal adhesions turnover; PtdIns(3,4,5)P3; PtdIns(4,5)P2Balla, T, Phosphoinositides: tiny lipids with giant impact on cell regulation (2013) Physiological Reviews, 93 (3), pp. 1019-1137; Balla, T, Varnai, P, Visualization of cellular phosphoinositide pools with GFP-fused protein-domains (2009) Current Protocols in Cell Biology, , Chapter 24: Unit 24.24; Botelho, RJ, Teruel, M, Dierckman, R, Anderson, R, Wells, A, Localized Biphasic Changes in Phosphatidylinositol-4,5-Bisphosphate at Sites of Phagocytosis (2000) Journal of Cell Biology, 151 (7), pp. 1353-1368; Bunney, TD, Katan, M, PLC regulation: emerging pictures formolecular mechanisms (2011) Trends in Biochemical Sciences, 36 (2), pp. 88-96; Cailleau, R, Young, R, Olivé, M, Reeves, JWJ, Breast tumor cell lines from pleural effusions2 (1974) Journal of the National Cancer Institute, 53 (3), pp. 661-674; Carisey, A, Ballestrem, C, Vinculin, an adapter protein in control of cell adhesion signalling (2011) European Journal of Cell Biology, 90 (2-3), pp. 157-163; Chinthalapudi, K, Rangarajan, ES, Patil, DN, George, EM, Brown, DT, Lipid binding promotes oligomerization and focal adhesion activity of vinculin (2014) Journal of Cell Biology, 207 (5), pp. 643-656; Falkenburger, B, Jensen, J, Hille, B, Kinetics of M(1) muscarinic receptor and G protein signaling to phospholipase C in living cells (2010) The Journal of General Physiology, 135 (2), pp. 81-97; Fogh, BS, Multhaupt, HA, Couchman, JR, Protein kinase C, focal adhesions and the regulation of cell migration (2014) Journal of Histochemistry Cytochemistry, 62 (3), pp. 172-184; Garvalov, BK, Higgins, TE, Sutherland, JD, Zettl, M, Scaplehorn, N, The conformational state of Tes regulates its zyxin-dependent recruitment to focal adhesions (2003) Journal of Cell Biology, 161 (1), pp. 33-39; Geiger, B, Spatz, JP, Bershadsky, AD, Environmental sensing through focal adhesions (2009) Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology, 10 (1), pp. 21-33; Gericke, A, Leslie, NR, Lösche, M, Ross, AH., PI(4,5)P(2)-mediated cell signaling: emerging principles and PTEN as a paradigm for regulatory mechanism (2013) Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology, 991, pp. 85-104; Gilmore, AP, Burridge, K, Regulation of vinculin binding to talin and actin by phosphatidyl-inositol-4-5-bisphosphate (1996) Nature, 381 (6582), pp. 531-535; Hoffman, BD, Grashoff, C, Schwartz, MA., Dynamic molecular processes mediate cellular mechanotransduction (2011) Nature, 475 (7356), pp. 316-323; Huttenlocher, A, Horwitz, AR, Integrins in cell migration (2011) Cold Spring Harb Perspect Biology, 3 (9), p. a005074; Hynes, RO, Integrins: bidirectional, allosteric signaling machines (2002) Cell, 110 (6), pp. 673-687; Insall, RH, Weiner, OD., PIP3, PIP2, and cell movement— similar messages, different meanings?

The dermal lesion occurs due to an obligate intracellular Leishmania parasite, which transmits by the bite of the infected female sandfly. This study aims to identify Leishmania species in Thi-Qar province/ South of Iraq and detect IL-17 level in serum of infected patients with L. tropica. The study was conducted in three local locations, Al-Hussein Teaching, Al-Suq Al-Shyokh General, and Al-Shatrah General Hospitals in the province for the period from the beginning of November 2018 to the end of October 2019. After clinical diagnosis, eighty out of two hundred forty-seven samples were selected for molecular examination by nested-PCR technique, where the lesion edge was injected by normal saline and pulled again to obtain the parasite DNA. Also, a measure of the IL-17 concentration level in serum of the patients with ELISA. The findings of the electrophoresis of the kinetoplast minicircle DNA gene showed that 65 samples were positive for cutaneous leishmaniasis, and observed two species of Leishmania spp. in the study area, 46 (57.5%) samples were L. tropica at 750bp and 19 (23.75%) samples were L. major. Serum IL-17 concentration recorded a significant increase among patients infected with L. tropica at different infection stages than control samples. Generally, the Nested-PCR technique is an accurate method for diagnosing clinical samples and molecular determination of Leishmania parasites. L. tropica is the dominant specie that caused CL in Thi-Qar province, while L. major recorded a low incidence. © 2020 Tche Quimica Group.

However, people tend to consider it a threat. This study is an evaluation work to the understanding of the risk management and safety culture of the construction sector in oil and gas industry in Iraq. A survey questionnaire was prepared, tested, distributed to a sample of engineers, from several engineering specialties, who are working on different levels in the mentioned sector. A high percent of the respondents are safety engineers, and some have a higher university degree, e.g. MS an Ph.D. The collected data then analyzed using different statistical approaches. The results show that there is a good understanding of the safety in general among engineers. However, risk management and planning tools are not understood effectively among the respondents. Moreover, having a higher degree or specializing in different majors have no impact on perceptional understanding of the safety and risk. This study is one of the first steps in studying the occupational safety in Iraq construction and oil and gas industries. Since Iraq is considered for rebuilding after different wars, international firms are in need to understand how safety is managed and to what level it is applied. From this perspective, this study is one of studies that help achieving the firms’ goal regarding safety. © 2020.

The normalized correlation values that is obtained by computing the cases values between the people behavior extracted and covid-19 reported case also has values close to 1 million by the end of June 2020 provided in dataset. In this research work, with more time, we would like to continue from the results we have achieved by training the RNN with NLP based sentiment analysis model for more extended periods of time for predicting the behavior of people during Covid-19 pandemic with 76.71% of accuracy which is high as compared to the CNN, such as days or weeks, in order to see how results can improve. The advancement in this field created an urge in me to research more on the techniques and methodologies developed for covid-19 extraction. During the outbreak of an epidemic, it is of immense interest to monitor the effects of containment measures and forecast of outbreak including epidemic peak affecting the behavior of people. To confront the change in behavior, a simple RNN based NLP sentiment analysis model is used to simulate the number of affected patients of Coronavirus disease. Our initial problem formulation involved investigating the ideal conditions and preprocessing for working with a specific NLP task: predicting the behavior during the specific time of May 20 – June 20 in 2020 for all four traits of common people during the Covid-19 pandemic. © 2020.

To fully harvest the structural capacity of building under constrcution with reinforced slabs sections exposed to combined actions, it is necessary to leave behind the simplicity of treating the verification of structural adequacy for normal stresses separately from that of shear stresses and instead fully exploit the advantages of choosing more efficient stress distributions. By exploring the vast possibilities of other statically admissible systems using optimization routines for deformation damage reduced to 20% from 80% in the work, the longitudinal reinforcement near the neutral axis in reinforced concrete can be utilized much more efficiently. In addition, by adhering to the interdependency constraints between normal and shear stresses in reinforced concrete a much more precise picture of the actual service stress state can be determined for impulsive loading and deformation damage where the maximum deformation and impulsive loading on RC-slab were observed at strain 91s < t < 97s on RC-slab in the total simulation steps from Os to 398s. There is therefore a need for a one- step, automated design tool capable of addressing such verifications holistically which was performed in the simulation of this study using Matlab R2019b. In this paper the theoretical basis and a free to use open-source design tool is presented, allowing for easy access to highly optimized designs capable of observing the impulsive loading and deformation damage on reinforced concrete materials to their limits © 2020construction; damage; deformation; load; Reinforced concrete; strain stressAnwar, A., Sabih, A., Husain, S.

The breeding values (BV) of the MM genotype were higher than those of the MN for SLW and REA of the carcass which were 0.766 and 0.186 respectively, while it was higher for MN genotype(5.962) in HOT trait. Thus strengthening the selection trend on the basis of MM genotype to raise the average weight of carcasses. Also, the dominant variation within the genetic variance was higher than the additive variance, reaching 10.598 and 0.599 for SLW and REA traits respectively indicating the strength of the initial reaction and its effect on the average characteristics. The average of the allele effect and the effect of substitution of alleles were all in favor of the M alleles compare to mutant allele (N), which encourages the selection against the mutant allele. © 2020 2020 © The Authors.

The HTMs were prepared through a facile steps reaction from cheap starting material. These HTMs exhibit good solubility and charge-transport ability but it has big issue regarding temperature due to degrade the conductive polymer, in the same time using ZnO NW as ETM. The perovskite based on PANI-SWNTs achieved power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 5% under air conditions. For perovskite, we found that the solar cells synthesized based on vertical ZnO nanowire arrays by using perovskite organic materials of CH3NH3PbI3 as active absorber materials, Pani-SWNT enable better photovoltaic performance than using CuO as HTM theoretical study by using simulator SCAPS solar cells. These results show that using CuO instead of PANI-SWNTs-HTMs have great prospect to replace the Pani-SWCNTs which is the most widely used HTM to obtain high—stability devices with temperature. © 2020 © 2020 author name, licensee AIMS Press.

They endow and enrich these plays with secondary and even tertiary meanings. However, because of the double or triple-tiered meanings of puns, these stylistic devices are not easily amenable to translation. The rich cultural connotations behind puns and the distinctive features of the puns’ form, sound and meanings pose great challenges to translators. Accordingly, care should be taken in the interlingual/intercultural transference of puns to transfer the effect achieved by these devices on the source recipients to the target recipients. Any mistranslation of puns will leave bad consequences on the recipients’ comprehension of the play’s atmosphere and characterization. In light of this, this study aims at identifying the strategies adopted by six Arab translators when rendering sexual puns in Shakespeare’s Hamlet into Arabic and the effect of each strategy on maintaining the intended communicative effect of puns on the recipients. In the analysis of the translation of puns in the Arabic versions of the play, Delabastita’s (2004) model was considered as the main theoretical framework. The data for analysis were collated from the play and its translated versions in Arabic by identifying puns in the ST and their counterparts in the TTs. The findings of the study show that the pun-to-pun, pun-to-zero-pun and pun-to-non-pun strategies were adopted when rendering puns in Hamlet into Arabic to naturalize the play to the Arab recipients, although this was at the expense of preserving the intended functions and communicative effect of this important stylistic feature. © 2020 DSR Publishers/University of Jordan.

This requires an efficient type of cryptography. Due to small size requirement, elliptic curve becomes the most suitable for such purpose. Objective: The encryption operation, in turn, increases the power required to transmit data through the network. The aim of this work is to reduce such power. Methods: This work suggests three methods to reduce the needed power. The first method is based on spread spectrum technology, which reduces the total number of levels in the network. The second method deals with algorithm used to choose the sensing node, while the third method suggests a cost function related directly to the available energy. Results: Computer simulation tests show a reduction in the required energy by 40% when we ap-ply the first method, while the second and third methods together reduce the energy by 12% of the total value of the whole network. Conclusion: The energy required to transmit encrypted data can be reduced with the aid of routing algorithms. These algorithm increase the coverage radius of the node transmission. © 2020 Bentham Science Publishers.Computer simulation tests; Diffie-Hellman Elliptic Curves (DHEC); Elliptic curve cryptography; Spread spectrum; Structure-free; Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs)Stojmenov, I., (2005) Handbook of sensor networks algorithms and archi-tectures, , http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/047174414X, 1st ed.

This study relied on the Nomadic People Optimizer (NPO) for the tri-objective design of a stand-alone hybrid energy system (HES). The NPO algorithm comprises five main operators; these are the initial meeting, the semicircular tents distribution, the families searching, the transition of leadership, and the periodic meeting of the normal leaders. A HES optimized the electricity supply of a residential complex with 30 houses in Thi-Qar, which is located in southern Iraq at latitude 31.060 and longitude 46.260. The objectives of this study are to minimize the total life cycle cost (LCCT), total dump energy ( {DE}{Total} ), and total CO{2} emissions for 25 years. The deployed algorithm was used to evaluate six different power source scenarios (PV/battery, wind turbine/battery, 20-split diesel generators, a single large diesel generator, and PV/wind turbine/diesel generator/battery) when diesel a generator covers a deficit of renewable energy sources (RESs) without charges to the batteries, and PV/wind turbine/diesel generator and battery when a diesel generator covers a deficit in the renewable energy sources (RESs) with charges to the batteries. The data used in this study, such as the wind speed, solar radiation, and temperature, were collected from weather forecasts in Thi-Qar every hour for a full year; the data load was collected from the Thi-Qar Electricity Distribution Directorate for the same housing complex and the same number of houses in an area equipped with electricity. Additionally, the prices of the system components, maintenance, and cost of fuel were collected from the Iraq market. From the obtained results, the PV/wind/large diesel generator/battery system when the diesel generator charges the batteries was found to be the most attractive scenario because it achieved a total life cycle cost (LCCT) of, cost of energy of 0.080495746, total dump energy (GWh)) of, and total emission T(kg) of 2.957 10. © 2013 IEEE.nomadic people optimizer; Optimal sizing; optimization; renewable energies; swarm intelligenceCosts; Diesel engines; Electric batteries; Electric load forecasting; Electric utilities; Electromagnetic wave emission; Energy policy; Housing; Life cycle; Natural resources; Renewable energy resources; Weather forecasting; Wind; Electricity distribution; Electricity supply; Hybrid energy system; Optimal combination; Renewable energy source; Residential complexes; System components; Total life cycle costs; Solar power generationKrishna, K.S., Kumar, K.S., A review on hybrid renewable energy systems (2015) Renew.

Rossin College of Engineering and Applied Science, Lehigh University, Bethlehem, PA 18015, United States; Oztekin, A., P.C. Rossin College of Engineering and Applied Science, Lehigh University, Bethlehem, PA 18015, United StatesThe performance of a pump-turbine under partial flow rates, 85%, 75%, and 65%, is studied using the LES model. The power signal, velocity, vorticity, and pressure field is presented over the blades and throughout the draft tube. Pressure fluctuations are probed at various locations over the wall of the draft tube. Examining the flow field in the blade region can provide further insights into the system performance. Flow-induced pressure fluctuations can disrupt system stability. For this turbine, a strong swirling region is observed around the draft tube walls, causing pressure fluctuations. The size and intensity of this region decrease with the flow rate. A vortex rope is present in all cases. At the design point, the strength is constant throughout the draft tube. However, at partial load, the rope is weakened along the draft tube. Between the region dominated by the vortex rope and the wall, there is a swirling shear layer, which moves closer to the wall as the flow rate decreases. Both the magnitude of pressure fluctuations at the wall and the pressure difference over the blade decrease with the flow rate. The decreased pressure differences over the blade represent less power produced, and the decline in fluctuation magnitude at the wall represents more system stability. For this turbine, there appears to be a trade-off between power and strength of pressure fluctuations. © 2020 American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME).

Rossin College of Engineering and Applied Science, Lehigh University, Bethlehem, PA 18015, United StatesComputational fluid dynamics simulations are conducted to characterize the spatial and temporal characteristics of the flow field inside a Francis turbine operating in the excess load regime. A high-fidelity Large Eddy Simulation (LES) turbulence model is applied to investigate the flow-induced pressure fluctuations in the draft tube of a Francis Turbine. Probes placed alongside the wall and in the center of the draft tube measure the pressure signal in the draft tube, the pressure over the turbine blades, and the power generated to compare against previous studies featuring design point and partial load operating conditions. The excess load is seen during Francis turbines in order to satisfy a spike in the electrical demand. By characterizing the flow field during these conditions, we can find potential problems with running the turbine at excess load and inspire future studies regarding mitigation methods. Our studies found a robust low-pressure region on the edges of turbine blades, which could cause cavitation in the runner region, which would extend through the draft tube, and high magnitude of pressure fluctuations were observed in the center of the draft tube. © 2020 American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME).

Adding thallium to structures makes it emit at larger wavelengths. The nonlinear effect of the injected signal power is examined for three quaternary thallium structures: In0.85Tl0.15AsSb, In0.93Tl0.07AsSb and In0.97Tl0.03AsSb. The gain peak was increased by four times and the wavelength was shifted to longer one for the In0.97Tl0.03AsSb quantum dot (QD) structure. This quaternary QD structure extends the emission wavelength to more than 12 μm which is important in long-wavelength infrared applications. The nonlinear behavior of these QD structures is also addressed. It is shown that the structure In0.97Tl0.03AsSb has a deeper spectral hole burning which is adequate for nonlinear signal processing applications. © 2020 Walter de Gruyter GmbH, Berlin/Boston 2020.nonlinear gain; quantum dot; thallium-basedAbsorption spectra; Antimony compounds; Infrared devices; Infrared radiation; Nanocrystals; Semiconductor quantum dots; Signal processing; Thallium; Emission wavelength; Injected signal; Long-wavelength infrared; Non-linear signal processing; Nonlinear behavior; Nonlinear effect; Quantum dot structure; Spectral-hole burning; Indium compoundsAl-Nashy, B., Razzaghi, S., Al-Musawi, M., Rasooli Saghai, H., Al-Khursan, A.H., Giant gain from spontaneously generated coherence in Y-type double quantum dot structure (2017) Results Phys, 7, pp. 2411-6. , https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rinp.2017.06.018; Akram, H., Al-Khursan, A.H., Second-order nonlinearity in ladder plus-Y configuration in double quantum dot structure (2016) Appl Opt, 55, pp. 9866-74. , https://doi.org/10.1364/ao.55.009866; Rehman, E., Al-Khursan, A.H., All-optical processes in double quantum dot structure (2016) Appl Opt, 55, pp. 7337-44. , https://doi.org/10.1364/ao.55.007337; Abdullah, M., Noori, F.T.M., Al-Khursan, A.H., Millimeter waves from frequency generation and optical rectification in quantum dot structure (2016) Opt Quant Electron, 48, p. 15. , https://doi.org/10.1007/s11082-015-0300-5; Steiner, T., (2004) Semiconductor nanostructures for optoelectronic applications, , London, UK Artech House; Laukkanen, P., Punkkinen, M.P.J., Räsänen, N., Ahola- Tuomi, M., Kuzmin, M., Lång, J., Bismuth-stabilized reconstruction on a InSb (100) substrate: violation of the electron counting model (2010) Phys Rev B, 81, p. 035310. , https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevb.81.035310; Dakhil, T., Abdulalmuhsin, S.M., Al-Khursan, A.H., Tunable mechanisms of quantum efficiencies in CdSe and TiO2 quantum dot solar (2018) Appl Opt, 57, pp. 612-9. , https://doi.org/10.1364/ao.57.000612; Dakhil, T., Abdulalmuhsin, S.M., Al-Khursan, A.H., Quantum efficiency of CdS quantum dot photodetectors (2018) Micro Nano Lett, 13, pp. 1185-7. , https://doi.org/10.1049/mnl.2017.0777; Al-Mossawi, M.A., Al-Shatravi, A.G., Al-Khursan, A.H., CdSe/ZnSe quantum-dot semiconductor optical amplifiers (2012) Insciences J, 2, pp. 52-62. , https://doi.org/10.5640/insc.020252; Qiu, Y., Uhl, D., Keo, S., Room-temperature continuous wave operation of InAsSb quantum-dot lasers near 2 mm based on 001 InP substrate (2004) Appl Phys Lett, 84, pp. 263-5. , https://doi.org/10.1063/1.1640467; Shao, H., Li, W., Torfi, A., Moscicka, D., Wang, W.I., Room-temperature InAsSb photovoltaic detectors for mid-infrared applications (2006) IEEE J Quantum Electron, 18, pp. 1756-858. , https://doi.org/10.1109/lpt.2006.879941; Coldren, R.L., Cozine, S.W., (1995) Diode lasers and photoelectronic integrated circuit, , New York, USA J.

However, surface evaporation results in the loss of both water and heat. This study therefore theoretically investigates the effect on temperatures within an SGSP when its surface is covered with a layer of air encased in a nylon bag. An earlier SGSP model was slightly modified to add the air layer and to estimate the temperature distributions of the upper layer or the upper convective zone (UCZ) and the bottom layer or lower convective zone (LCZ). The results for a year-long period showed that adding the air cover increased the LCZ temperature to a maximum of 94°C in July, with a total average increase of about 9% over the uncovered pond. In the UCZ, temperatures showed an average increase of approximately 45%, reaching a maximum of 34°C. The temperature of the air layer was meanwhile found to be close to the ambient temperature and behaved identically. These findings invite future experimental and theoretical investigations into the use of air layers to prevent surface evaporation, thereby enhancing the efficiency of SGSPs as a source of clean energy. © 2020, Tech Science Press.

ABAQUS program has been used in this research. The load-deflection relationship, crack pattern, strain in the concrete at mid-span section of the beam and failure modes of all tested beams are studied. After validation of FEM model, parametric studies are presented to assess the effect of the compressive strength of concrete, thickness, and length of CFRP, and the presence of CFRP on stress in steel bars. From the current results, it can be obtained that the flexural capacity of RC beams strengthened with CFRP increased by 6.6% for beam strengthed by EBR and to 108.8% for beam strengthed by near surface mounted (NSM) compared to the reference beams. According to parametric studies, it is found that by increasing the compressive strength of concrete from 30 MPa to 70 MPa, the beam capacity increase by 25.6%, while increasing the length of CFRP from 600 mm to 900 mm leads to increase the beam capacity by 12.7%. Increasing thickness of CFRP sheet from 0.11 mm to 0.5 mm leads to an increase in the stiffness and the flexural capacity of the beam by 47.9%. Also, the results of this study approved that the strengthening of RC beams by CFRP laminates using the NSM technique is more efficient than externally bonded reinforcement (EBR) techniques and this is agreed with the experimental results. Finally, it can be concluded that the finite element model provides good accuracy compared to the experimental results and ACI-440 results. © 2020 Potificia Universidad Catolica de Chile.

The objective of this study was to synthesize, structure and highlight biological features of new species of metal-organic complexes [(MCl2)2L1] {M = Ni, Cu, L1 = N,N'-1,4Phenylenebis(methanylylidene)bis(ethane-1,2-diamine)} and [(NiCl2)2L2]. The Schiff base ligands were prepared in an excellent yeilds by adding terephthalaldehyde to 1,2-ethane-diamine or 1,4-butane-diamine. Three binuclear Schiff base metal complexes were synthesized in a simple one-pot reaction by reacting the corresponding metal chloride (NiCl2 and CuCl2) salts with the Schiff base ligands {L1 = N,N'-(1,4phenylenebis(methanylylidene)bis(1,2-diethylamine)) and L2 phenylenebis(methanylylidene)bis(butane-1,4-diamine))}. The obtained Schiff base metal complexes were = N,N'-(1,4analytically, characterized by a set of spectroscopic techniques such as FT-IR spectroscopy, 1H NMR spectra, and mass spectra. The structures characterization studies suggest that Schiff base ligands behave as N bidentate ligands for nickel and copper metal centers, which are known to act as Lewis acids. The biological activity of the Schiff base of nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes was tested by using the broth dilution method. The complexes showed antibacterial activity against all gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria (Enterobacter cloacae G-, Citrobacter G-, Pseudomonas G-, Klebsiella G-, Staphylococcus G+, and Streptococcus G+) that used in the trials. It is concluded that Schiff base metal complexes are a good candidate for the antibacterial drug because of its good activity against gram-negative and gram-positive strains demonstrated in the present study, as well as in other studies in the literature. © 2020 Tche Quimica Group.

In literature, many existing preservation techniques and models have been discussed and presented with their detailed comparison as preservation rate of digital data growth has increased. Many western countries have already upgraded their paper-based systems to the smart system for preservation of government records including Turkey. In methodology, we used python language for the implementation of smart system application with OAIS framework to preserve archived paper-based records, it also provides a roadmap for the new digital ecosystem. It offers a framework that can be used to identify roles and responsibilities within a bounded system. Major ministries of Iraq (i.e. finance, electricity, science and technology) are developing specific guidance for preserving digital artifacts and records. Records accession, normalization and transformation have also been performed on the records during the process of preservation to clean the records and format conversion. In results, we achieved good preservation of most of the records from 2015 to 2019, the goal is to preserve which most of the records it belongs to digital format. The distribution of records preservation for major ministries of Iraq government in term of paper based and digitally preserved records from year 2015 to 2019. The preservation of digital records was recorded very low in 2015 as much of the record archival were paper based in all major ministries of the government. However, year-by-year the smart system tends preserve the records in digital format from old paper-based format and till 2019 large amount of records are being converted to the digital format. To have such smart system can be very helpful for preserving the records of the government, and useful for understanding how records are being preserved and their functionality. © 2020 EManuscript Technologies.

By using the first-principles of the density functional theory (DFT) calculations at the B3LYP/ 6-31G, which implemented in the Gaussian 09 software, various properties, such as the geometrical structure, DOS, HOMO, LUMO infrared spectra, and energy gap of the ZGNR, were investigated with various sites and concentrations of the phosphorus (P). It was observed that the ZGNR could be converted from linear to fractal dimension by using phosphorus (P) impurities. Also, the fractal binary tree of the ZGNR and P-ZGNR structures is a highlight. The results demonstrated that the energy gap has different values, which located at this range from 0.51eV to 1.158 eV for pristine ZGNR and P-ZGNR structures. This range of energy gap is variable according to the use of GNRs in any apparatus. Then, the P-ZGNR has semiconductor behavior. Moreover, there are no imaginary wavenumbers on the evaluated vibrational spectrum confirms that the model corresponds to minimum energy. Then, these results make P-ZGNR can be utilized in various applications due to this structure became more stable and lower reactivity. © 2020 Tche Quimica Group.

Most women with PCOS suffer from menstrual irregularity, hirsutism, alopecia, acne, infertility, alongside several metabolic disorder such as insulin resistance, obesity, hypertension and hyperlipidemia. This study was designed to estimate kisspeptin ( metastin ) hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone(LH) and testosterone levels in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), in comparison with controls, and study the correlations between kisspeptin and PCOS-related reproductive hormones, and investigate the relation between probable influence of KISS1 gene polymorphisms and hormone levels in women suffering from PCOS Methods: The study comprised 100 PCOS women and 100 controls(healthy women), with age ranging from 17 to 40 years. Blood samples were collected between day 3 and day 5 of the menstrual cycle(follicular phase) in both groups, BMI and circulating levels of serum kisspeptin(metastin), LH, FSH and testosterone were estimated. DNA was extracted from whole blood, and genotyping of rs4889 polymorphism in KISS1 gene was carried out by allele-specific PCR. Results: The values of BMI, kisspeptin, testosterone LH and LH-FSH ratio were significantly higher in PCOS women than controls. Plasma kisspeptin levels were positively correlated with LH levels. There was no statistically significant difference between the groups in terms of FSH level. The SNP rs4889 C/G, a non-synonymous SNP, was investigated in women with PCOS. The genotype (CG) had a significantly higher frequency (P=0.004) in PCOS group with OR of (2.316)than that of the control group. This would reflect that the genotype(CG) is a risk factor for PCOS occurrence within the sample size. Concerning the allele frequency of rs4889, the allele (C) showed a significantly higher frequency (41.5%, P=0.0008) in the PCOS group than that of the control group (25.5%). Conclusion: Overall, kisspeptin levels are higher in the PCOS women, this may be because disorder in hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal(HPG)axis activity, thereby causing an increased level of LH which lead to irregular menstrual cycles and hyperandrogenism in PCOS women. Also, the results of the study show that the KISS1 gene polymorphism may be a factor contributing to PCOS development by its effect on increasing the kisspeptin hormone in the blood. The association between the gene and the gene variation and PCOS need further validation in large-scaled and functional studies. © 2020, Advanced Scientific Research.

In addition, Ti6Al4V (Gr.23) plasma atomised 100 wt% spherical powder was used as the reference powder with a flowability of 28 s to facilitate the tensile property discussion. It was found that the powder flowability is the crucial parameter governing the tensile properties of fabricated specimens. It was shown that the decrease in powder flowability (36.5 s) resulted in increases in susceptibility to the formation of a lack of fusion defects with dropped tensile properties. The microstructure of the fabricated Ti6Al4V alloy features the formation of prior β grain boundaries and an alpha prime (α′) martensite. Furthermore, no intermetallic aluminide phase (Ti3Al) precipitations in grain boundaries were detected through energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy analysis. © 2020 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.additive manufacturing;

The element lead contamination of the groundwater in the Al-Maamel (Baweia) area /30 km east of Baghdad was assessed. About twenty well water samples were analyzed for Lead content and their levels compared with WHO specified maximum contaminant level, the Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) was 19.5 ppm, the results obtained the samples analyzed contained 79% of the samples had detectable level of Lead clearly, this refer a significant risk to this population given the toxicity of this metal and the fact that for many, hand dug wells are the only sources of their water supply in this environment. Twenty five cervical swaps were collected from study area those who used well water in daily household rinses during period November-December / 2018. All these samples were cultured on differential media (Blood and MacConky agar). DNA extraction was carried out for (25) isolates, then they subjected to molecular analysis by Real Time quantitative PCR to detect diagnostic genes of common pathogens by using Prepared Vaginitis Panel from (STD Technology). The molecular study showed that the highest percentage of pathogens were (19 %) of each Enterobacteriaceae and Chlamydia trachomatis. And medium percentage were ranged between (11-16%) of each Trichmonas vaginalis, Candida albicans, Ureaplasma urealyticum and Mycoplasma genitalium and lower percentage were ranged between (1-2%) of each Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Haemophilus ducreyi, Streptococcus spp, Staphylococcus aureus and Human Papilloma Virus (HPV).

Microorganisms and genetically modified animals are considered one of the available sophisticated technical methods to produce complex organisms to which genes are transferred from other living organisms, so it is possible to produce genetically modified plants or animals. This gives an impression of the biological importance of genetically modified organisms and their elimination from toxic waste, for choosing genetic engineering is that selection means trying to collect a specific set of genes in a particular plant or animal. Depends on the selection of high-quality species to obtain the required genetic traits, using of biotechnologies and genetically modified microorganisms to contribute reducing environmental pollution by analyzing toxic substances from human. © 2020, Connect Journal.Biotechnology; Genetic engineering organisms; Impact healthalteplase; cyanide; follitropin; fungi toxin; low density lipoprotein cholesterol; probiotic agent; recombinant follitropin; unclassified drug; anemia; animal food; Article; biotechnology; colon cancer; diabetes mellitus; drug industry; environmental factor; Escherichia coli; feeding difficulty; food industry; food security; gene mapping; gene therapy; gene transfer; genetic engineering; genetic variation; human; nonhuman; organisms; pollution; risk factor; thyroid canceralteplase, 105857-23-6; cyanide, 57-12-5; follitropin, 9002-68-0; recombinant follitropin, 1219693-73-8, 146479-72-3, 1359819-75-2Agostinho, A., Marcia, A., Sergio, A., Patricia, M., Renato, G., Carmen, S., Cleonice, A., Ernesto, H., Metal tolerance in bacteria isolated from sewage (2012) Braz J Microbiol, 43 (4), pp. 1620-1631; Ahmed, M., Implications of Bacterial Resistance Against Heavy metals in Bioremediation: Areview (2012) IIOABJ, 3 (3), pp. 39-46; Cybulski, Z., Dzuirla, E., Kaczorek, E., Olszanowski, A., The influence of emulsifiers on hydrocarbon biodegradation by Pseudomonadacea and Bacillacea strains (2003) Spill Science and Technology, Bulletin, 8, pp. 503-507; Daboor, S.M., Application of bacterial biomass as a potential heavy metal bio-removal agent (2014) Afr.

Hypertension is closely related to kidney diseases. To investigate themicroalbuminuria, serum creatinine, serum potassium and serum lipid profile levels in hypertensive group in addition to measure systolic and diastolic blood pressures and compare these values with that of normotensive group. These parameters collectively may consider as early markers for renal dysfunction. This prospective study included 65 patients with primary hypertension and 60 controls. albuminuria, serum creatinine, serum potassium and lipid profile were taken from all participants in addition to blood pressure measurement of them were recorded. This clinical work was achieved in Al-Hussain teaching Hospital and private clinic and labs. Means of systolic and diastolic blood pressures, albuminuria levels, serum creatinine, triglyceride, VLDL levels of patients with primary hypertension were significantly higher than those of the control group (p ≤ 0.05). Serum potassium and HDL cholesterol were lower in cases than control group. Microalbuminuria, high levels of serum creatinine, triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein as well as an elevation of blood pressure particularly systolic blood pressure findings, additionally low levels of both serum potassium and high density lipoprotein may consider collectively as an early predictor for renal disease. © 2020, Connect Journal.Microalbuminuria; Primary hypertension; Renal diseasehigh density lipoprotein cholesterol; low density lipoprotein; low density lipoprotein cholesterol; triacylglycerol; very low density lipoprotein; adult; albumin blood level; Article; colorimetry; controlled study; enzyme linked immunosorbent assay; human; hypertension; kidney disease; lipid blood level; low density lipoprotein cholesterol level; major clinical study; microalbuminuria; risk factor; urinalysisI would like to thanks to College of Science, University of Thi-Qar, Iraq and specialist clinics and the nephrology department in Al-Hussain teaching Hospital to help me in this study.Aleem, A., Renal abnormalities in patients with sickle cell disease: A single centre report from Saudi Arabia (2008) Saudi J.

Whereas the synchronized-chaotic systems, the dynamics of there are identical to uncoupled dot light-emitting diodes (DLEDs) under optical feedback effect. Complete synchronization was obtained under certain conditions for the coupling parameters. We evaluated the range of the QDLED's chaos with extrinsic optical feedback in methods of the chaos synchronization residue diagram and discussion as well as the coherence for the optimal coupling strength range. With proper conditions of the coupling parameters and the evaluation methods, the synchronization was satisfactorily obtained between the transmitter and receiver. © 2020 Walter de Gruyter GmbH, Berlin/Boston 2020.chaos synchronization residue; coherence; control; QDLEDsResearch funding : This work is supported by the Nassiriya Nanotechnology Research Laboratory (NNRL), Science College, University of Thi Qar, Iraq.Scholl, E., Schuster, H.G., (2008) Handbook of Chaos Control, , Weinheim Wiley-VCH; Pyragas, K., Continuous control of chaos by self-controlling feedback (1992) Phys Lett, A170, p. 421. , https://doi.org/10.1016/0375-9601(92)90745-8; Balanov, A.G., Janson, N.B., Scholl, E., Control of noise-induced oscillations by delayed feedback (2004) Physica D, 199, pp. 1-12. , https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physd.2004.05.008; Fitz Hugh, R., Thresholds and plateaus in the Hodgkin-Huxley nerve equations (1960) J Gen Physiol, 43, pp. 867-896. , https://doi.org/10.1085/jgp.43.5.867; Gerstner, W., Kistler, W., (2002) Spiking Neuron Models, , Cambridge Cambridge University Press; Haken, H., (2006) Brain Dynamics: Synchronization and Activity Patterns in Pulse-coupled Neural Nets with Delays and Noise, , Berlin Springer Verlag GmbH; Pecora, L.M., Carroll, T.L., Synchronization in chaotic systems (1990) Phys Rev Lett, 64, p. 821. , https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevlett.64.821; Chua, L.O., Wu, C.W., Huang, A., Zhong, G.Q., A universal circuit for studying and generating chaos-part I: Routes to chaos (1993) Ieee Trans Circ Syst, 40, pp. 731-744. , https://doi.org/10.1109/81.246149; Kennedy, M., Chaos in the colpitts oscillator (1994) Ieee Trans Circ Syst, 41, pp. 771-774. , https://doi.org/10.1109/81.331536; Plenge, F., Rodin, P., Scholl, E., Krischer, K., Domain coarsening of stripe patterns close to onset (2001) Phys Rev E, 64, p. 056229. , https://doi.org/10.1103/physreve.64.056229; Medvedev, G.S., Cisternas, J.E., Multimodal regimes in a compartmental model of the dopamine neuron (2004) Physica D, 194. , https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physd.2004.02.006; Al Husseini, H.B., Al Naimee, K.A., Al-Khursan, A.H., Khedir, A.H., External modes in quantum dot light emitting diode with filtered optical feedback (2016) J Appl Phys, 119, p. 224301. , https://doi.org/10.1063/1.4953651; Al Naimee, K., Al Husseini, H., Abdalah, S.F., Al Khursan, A., Khedir, A.H., Meucci, R., Complex dynamics in quantum dot light emitting diodes (2015) Eur Phys J D, 69, pp. 1-5. , https://doi.org/10.1140/epjd/e2015-60201-x; Al Naimee, K., Al Husseini, H., Abdalah, S.F., Al Khursan, A., Khedir, A.H., Meucci, R., Mixed mode oscillations and chaotic spiking in quantum dot light emitting diodes (2015) Proceedings of the Ieee, 78, p. 033. , https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chaos; Al Husseini, H., Al Khursan, A., Al Naimee, K., Abdalah, S.F., Khedir, A.H., Meucci, R., Modulation response, mixed mode oscillations and chaotic spiking in quantum dot light emitting diodes (2015) ELSEVIER, Chaos, Solit Fractals, 78, pp. 229-237. , Nonlinear Science, and Nonequilibrium and Complex Phenomena https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chaos.2015.07.033; Al Husseini, H., Al Rekabie, H., Selecting dynamics of the quantum dot light emitting diode with a small optical feedback strength (2019) ELSEVIER, Chaos, Solit Fractals, 118, pp. 199-206. , Nonlinear Science, and Nonequilibrium and Complex Phenomena https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chaos.2018.11.006; Al Rekabie, H., Al Husseini, H., Controlling of the quantum dot LED dynamics with a small optical feedback strength "l&H scientific publishing (2020) J Appl Nonlinear Dynam, 9. , https://doi.org/10.5890/jand.2020.03.006; Al Husseini, H., Abdalah, S., AlKhursan, A., AlNaimee, K., Meucci, R., Tito Arecchi, F., Encrypted chaos in quantum dot light emitting diode (2020) ELSEVIER, Chin J Phys, 65, pp. 398-404. , https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cjph.2020.02.0300; Al-Naimee, K., Marino, F., Ciszak, M., Meucci, R., Arecchi, F.T., Chaotic spiking and incomplete homoclinic scenarios in semiconductor lasers with optoelectronic feedback (2009) New J Phys, 11, p. 073022. , https://doi.org/10.1088/1367-2630/11/7/073022Al Husseini, H.B.; Department of Physics, Iraq; email: alhusseini_2007@yahoo.com

The study applied on 100 men, who suffering from mild and moderate obesity, their weight 104±6.23 kg, BMI 34.26 ±3.67kg/m2, age 33.5±6.1. They were divided in to 5 groups: group 1 (18) men: they are not training, not having flaxseed; group 2(21) men: they are training, not having flaxseeds; group 3(16) men: they are training, taking flaxseeds; group 4(23) men: they are not training, taking flaxseeds; group 5 (22) men: they are training, taking flaxseeds. The first four groups are under diet controlwhile the last group werewithout diet control.All groups were compared with the control group (16) healthy men who are not training, not taking any supplementand not following any diet program.ALT,AST, total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), high density lipoprotein (HDL) and low density lipoprotein (LDL) were measured in all group membersbefore and after the study period. From the static analysis of study results, it was noticed that there was a decrease in level ofAST,ALT, cholesterol, TGand LDL in all five group,especially in group 3 and 5. Whereas HDL level more increased in group 3 and 5 in spite of its raising in the other 3 groups. One of the most important risks of obesity is elevated liver enzymes and lipids profile that cause problems and other diseases. The use of flaxseeds with cardio exercise led to a decrease in the level of liver enzymes as well as cholesterol, TG and LDL and elevated level of HDL. Therefore, we must payattention to weight gain, which mostly ends in obesity by arranging the number of meals in a day, andavoid eating fatty food as well as fast food. In addition, the increase in weight can be reduced by focusing on the contents of the daily diet followed,increase physical activity and using flaxseeds in diets to reduce excess weight and avoid the incidence of chronic diseases. © 2020, Connect Journal.Cardio-exercise; Diet; Flaxseeds; Lipids profile; Liver enzymes; Obesityalanine aminotransferase; aspartate aminotransferase; cholesterol; high density lipoprotein; liver enzyme; low density lipoprotein; triacylglycerol; adult; Article; body mass; body weight control; body weight gain; body weight loss; controlled study; diastolic blood pressure; dietary intake; dietary supplement; exercise; fast food; food intake; glucose blood level; health program; human; incidence; linseed; lipid fingerprinting; male; obesity; physical activity; risk factor; systolic blood pressurealanine aminotransferase, 9000-86-6, 9014-30-6; aspartate aminotransferase, 9000-97-9; cholesterol, 57-88-5Al-Naje, S.A., Dyslipidemia among apparently healthy adults in Baghdad, Iraq (2018) J.

The theoretical simulation shows the carrier temperature increasing straight forward with increasing the surface density of the donor and accepter which had not studied earlier as the best of our knowledge. It clears that, the surface carrier concentration of donor or acceptor atoms supplying more hot carriers for wetting layer (WL) which is leading an increasing the carrier temperature. In other word, the long life time of carriers from WL to Quantum Dot (QD) states is very high. Consequently, the collision of carriers and nonradiative relaxation are increasing the CH effect. Also, the majority of carrier is responsible on the increasing of electron or hole temperature, so the variation electron temperature in N-type is higher than hole in valence band, while the reverse is done with doping with P-type. © 2020 Walter de Gruyter GmbH, Berlin/Boston 2020.carrier temperature;

This study was conducted to isolate E. coli from urine of patients with urinary tract infections at Al-habbobi Teaching Hospital, during the period from November 2018 to March 2019, to detect Phylogenetice groups for isolates and susceptibility to antibiotic. A total of 127 samples patients were collected from urine gave 40 (31%) E. coli. Phylogenetic analysis basedw on the presence or absence of chuA, yjaA and TspE4.C2 marker genes, was carried out to 40 isolates of UPEC, showed that Phylogenetic group B2 was most, predominant, which included 30(75%) isolates, group A 5(12.5%) isolates and group D 5(12.5%) isolates. Antibiotic resistance exhibited group B2 was resistance 97% to Augmentin, 97% trimethoprim, 87% tetracycline and ceftriaxon 80%.

The purpose of research was to study the influencing of partial shading on the energy efficiency of photovoltaic installations in various connection options. As the title implies the article describes a study of the possibilities of increasing their energy efficiency when operating under different conditions. It is spoken in detail about replacement of "block connection" panels to the "in-line connection", in case of partial shading by the previous string. It is shown that substitution allows to obtain a significantly higher power - up to 8 times. It is examined that the horizontal arrangement of the panels instead of the vertical, under the same conditions, also allows up to 5 times the power of the partially shaded array in the case "in-line connection" and by 34% in the case of a "block connection". It is analyzed that parallel connection of partially shaded photovoltaic array with normally illuminated, requires voltage matching, for the selection of electrical energy at the point of maximum power, which makes it possible to obtain much more energy from the shaded array. It is experimentally shown that when using the "Intelligent maximum power selection device" that implements the voltage matching, it is possible to increase the array power up to 4 times with partial shading of 3 panels of 18. It should be noted that the choice of methods that allow receiving energy from shaded panels through individual matching converters does not permit significantly increasing the energy production of partially shaded array. It is experimentally shown that as a result of their use the array power does not increase by more than 2.5%. The results of research can be used in the design of new installations based on photovoltaic cells and the modernization of existing ones. © 2020 Institut za Istrazivanja.

It examines pulsed, laminar blood flow through the state of the right coronary artery in a heart patient. Data for these cases were taken from a catheter laboratory in the Thi - Qar cardiac center. The case for a man born in 1976 who has normal RCA. A non-Newtonian blood model characterized by the Carreau equation was used, and a 3D model was used with the governing equations analyzed using the specified volumetric method. The SIMPLE algorithm has been adopted to link pressure and speed during runoff. Geometric figures are drawn using Auto CAD software and combined with ANSYS FLUENT 18.2 code program. The results showed that the speed increased in areas with a smaller diameter. Non-Newtonian viscosity increases its effect near the center of stenosis. The total pressure is equal to diastolic pressure with little increase. In the normal right coronary artery, it is noticed a difference in wall shear stress (WSS) distributions along the artery. This is due to the tilted axial velocity profile. The results were compared with literature to find high agreement. © 2020 Zibeline International Publishing Sdn. Bhd..

The Lq-HAM is a combined form of q-homotopy analysis method (q-HAM) and Laplace transform. The aim of utilizing the Laplace transform is to outdo the shortage that is mainly caused by unfulfilled conditions in the other analytical methods. The results show that the analytical solution converges very rapidly to the exact solution. © 2020 University of Baghdad-College of Science.

Pharmacologically and according to its substitution, sulfonamide derivatives could be divided into antibacterial sulfonamides and non-anti-bacterial sulfonamides, the later includes a wide range of medical uses such as anti diabetic agents,carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, antihypertensive, antiviral, anti-impotence agent, high-ceiling diuretics, antiepileptic's and anticancer agents. These different pharmacological properties were found through the serial derivitization of the basic chemical nucleus of sulfanilamide, which indicate that these group has the ability to interacts with different targets. The anticancer activity of sulfonamides derivatives were produced by different mechanism of actions such inhibition of carbonic anhydrase (CA) enzymes, arresting the cell cycle in the G1 phase, and microtubules disruption. In this review, we try to summarizes and classify the different mechanisms by which sulfonamides derivatives produce there antitumor activity with illustration of the most important derivatives in each mechanism. © 2020, Advanced Scientific Research.

Analysis employing a flam atomic absorption spectrophotometers (FAAS). The mean concentrations of the metals in both phases (Dissolved and Particulate) were Cd (0.12, 13.5), Cu (1.4, 14.25) and Pb (0.24, 20), (ug /L) and (ug /gm dry weight) respectively, and those for fish (A. latus, C. carpio) were Cd (0.05- 0.035), Cu (0.4-0.21) and Pb (0.43-0.34) (ug /gm dry weight) respectively. The bioconcentration factor (B.C.F) was calculated for the above studied elements in the fish muscles (A. latus, C. carpio), which was as follows: (Cd (417-292), Cu (286-150) and Pb (1792- 1417) times as concentrated in water respectively. The present study showed a difference in concentration of studied metal in different muscles of fish. This due to the nature and the feeding and ability fish or regulating the level of the metals in their bodies during uptake and elimination processes. The result also showed that heavy element concentration in muscles of two the species were in the international acceptable limits, so it can be safety having related to this type of pollutants now days, considered good indicator of accumulation for heavy element in the water. © 2020 Plant Archives.

The objectives of this study were (1) to determine the prevalence of GI parasites in buffaloes in the Marshland areas of southern Iraq, and (2) to evaluate the association of risk factors with the parasitic infections. Materials and Methods: A total of 166 water buffaloes from the Marshland in the north of Basra (n=75), and Thi-Qar (n=91) provinces from November 2016 to April 2017 were enrolled. Fecal samples were collected and examined for the presence of helminth eggs and protozoal oocysts using sedimentation-flotation and centrifugal flotation techniques. Results: The overall prevalence of infection in buffaloes was 82% (136/166), with the highest number of single parasite infection (64%), followed by those with double (29%) and triple (7%) parasite infections. The most frequently identified parasites were Fasciola spp. (23%, 39/166), Eimeria spp. (19%, 32/166), Toxocara vitulorum (13%, 21/166), Trichostrongylus spp. (12%, 20/166), and Oesophagostomum spp. (10%, 10/166). Moniezia spp. was the only identified cestode with a prevalence of (8%, 13/166). A significant association was reported between feeding type and parasitic infections with Eimeria spp., Trichostrongylus spp., Moniezia spp., Trichuris spp., and Ostertagia ostertagia. Conclusion: The prevalence of GI parasitic infection in buffaloes raised in the Marshlands is high, indicating a high intensity of natural infection. The findings of this study imply an urgent need for the implementation of efficient control measures against parasitic infections in the Marshlands. © 2020 Lifescience Global.Bubalus bubalis; Endoparasites; Epidemiology; Gastrointestinal parasites; Marshes; Swamp buffaloesWanapat, M, Chanthakhoun, V., Buffalo Production for Emerging Market as a Potential Animal Protein Source for Global Population (2015) Buffalo Bull, 34, pp. 169-180; Abu Tabeekh, MAS, Abdul Abdul Mohsen, HA, Al Jaberi, AA., The Reality of Buffalo Breeding in Basra Governorate (2017) J Buffalo Sci, 6, pp. 8-18. , https://doi.org/10.6000/1927-520X.2017.06.01.2; Abid, HS, Fazaa, NA., Water Buffalo in the Iraqi Marshes Nature Iraq Status Report 2007, , http://www.natureiraq.org/uploads/9/2/7/0/9270858/status_report_buffalothiqar.pdf, Sulaimani, Kurdistan, Iraq.

The second group was sub chronic toxicity done on 120 chicken that in turn divided equally in to 4 subgroups, these are (untreated control, 2, 4 and 8 mg/kg daily) for 100 days. Neurotoxicity of triortho cresyl phosphate in hen of midbrain in acute and one handred days. Sub chronic studies showed mainly changes in the synapses characterized by disorganization, the presence of dark, degenerated mitochondria stained in synapses and ramifications. In some occasion's myelinated nerve, fibers showed evidence of degenerate myelin with vacuolation and spheroid body formation. In addition, myelin changes were characterized formation of laminated bodies, also auto phagocytosis of degenerate myelin. Furthermore, presence of degenerate mitochondria in axoplasm of axon and in cytoplasm of neurons. The degeneration of mitochondria characterized by loss of formation of laminated bodies in severe cases even deposits of calcium materials in the lamellated degenerate mitochondria. In conclusion the presence of degenerated lamellate calcified mitochondria could be a strong indication that triortho-cresyl phosphate, does not cause only degenerated myelin sheath of axon but also cause degeneration of mitochondria. © 2020 Advanced Scientific Research.

Moreover, chronic study was done on eighty adult hens which divided into four groups (20 hens each); control group and treated groups which in turn supplemented with TOCP at 1.25, 2.5 and 5 mg/kg a day orally for ninety days and labeled as neurotoxicity induced groups. Most of transmission electron microscopic changes (TEMc) of cerebellum occurred in the synapses associated with degeneration of myelin sheath and/or partial demyelination in the presence of myelinated nerve fiber. Additionally, neurotoxicity of TOCP revealed abnormal lamellate of mitochondria with dark stained. The other adverse effects of TOCP extended into CNS (cerebellum and spinal cord) which was characterized by the degeneration of myelin sheath of myelinated nerve fibers with lamellated bodies' formation, auto phagocytosis of degenerate myelin by oligo dendrocyte. Severe cases exhibited mitochondrial degeneration especially in the axoplasm of myelinated nerve fibers associated with calcification in the lamellated degenerated mitochondria with complete loss of neurons which lead to loss of function. These findings concluded that the histopathological results supported the clinical and biochemical findings, and the severity of nerve damage in a dose-dependent manner. © 2020 Advanced Scientific Research.

The paper proposes a mathematical model of Fast ReRoute with load balancing based on the principles of Traffic Engineering (TE) and differentiated traffic policing in communication networks. The basis of the model is the conditions for the implementation of multipath routing together with the modified conditions for flow conservation, which take into account the priority traffic policing on the network edge in case of its probable overload. On the one hand, such an overload is caused by the increase in the load. On the other hand, it is caused by the implementation of protection schemes for network elements and its bandwidth in the course of fast rerouting. The advantage of the proposed solution is also the formulation of the Traffic Engineering Fast ReRoute with support of Traffic Policing (TE-FRR-TP) as an optimization one. The given optimality criterion focuses firstly on minimizing the dynamically controlled upper bound of communication links utilization that meets the requirements of the TE concept. Secondly, it minimizes the intensity of flows that receive denial of service at the edge of the network weighted in relation to the priority of serving. Using the proposed model on a number of numerical examples, the research of the policing based Traffic Engineering Fast ReRoute processes has confirmed the adequacy and efficiency of routing solutions made on its basis, both in terms of ensuring their fault-tolerance and load balancing, and in relation to traffic policing based on priorities. © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2020.Bandwidth protection; Fast ReRoute; Networks resilience; SD-WAN; Traffic Engineering; Traffic policingFault tolerance; Network architecture; Denial of Service; Flow conservation; Intensity of flow; Modified conditions; Multi path routing; Optimality criteria; Protection schemes; Traffic Engineering; BalancingBlokdyk, G., Software-Defined WAN SD-WAN A Clear and Concise Reference (2018) 5STAR-Cooks; Blokdyk, G., (2018) SD-WAN A Complete Guide, , 5STARCooks; Naggi, R., Srivastava, R., (2018) SD-WAN The Networking Blueprint for Modern Businesses, , Amazon Digital Services LLC; White, M.B., (2018) Computer Networking: The Complete Guide to Understanding Wireless Technology, Network Security, Computer Architecture and Communications Systems (Including Cisco, CCNA and CCENT), , CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform; Monge, A.S., Szarkowicz, K.G., (2016) O’Reilly Media, Sebastopol, , MPLS in the SDN Era: Interoperable Scenarios to Make Networks Scale to New Services; Zaitsev, D.A., Shmeleva, T.R., Retschitzegger, W., Pröll, B., Security of grid structures under disguised traffic attacks (2016) Clust.

The present study was a case-controlled study conducted in Basrah, Iraq. Of the 152 participants who met the inclusion criteria, 100 patients used different types of GCs. Of these 100 patients, 57 patients (57%) were current GC users, and 43 patients (43%) were not currently using GCs (had not used GCs in the past 30 days). The control group was comprised of 52 men (34.21%), considered as healthy participants, although 7 men (13.65%) were biochemically diagnosed with hypogo-nadism. Current GC exposure significantly decreased the total and free testosterone levels, whereas previous GC exposure increased estradiol (E2) levels, with the 31 patients on oral dexamethasone (cumulative dose, 18.9 mg) exhibiting a 7.5-fold increased risk of being diagnosed with hypogonadism. For previous GC users, a significant increase in the E2 level was observed, whereas all other gonadal hormonal levels were within normal reference ranges, including the total and free testosterone levels. The total cumulative dose of equivalent GCs was 240 mg, which resulted in a decrease in total testosterone levels, and subsequent hypogonadism.

The hyperbolic telegraph equation is one of them, where it describes the vibrations of structures (e.g., buildings, beams, and machines) and are the basis for fundamental equations of atomic physics. There are several analytical and numerical methods are used to solve the telegraph equation. An analytical solution considers framing the problem in a well-understood form and calculating the exact resolution. It also helps to understand the answers to the problem in terms of accuracy and convergence. These analytic methods have limitations with accuracy and convergence. Therefore, a novel analytic approximate method is proposed to deal with constraints in this paper. This method uses the Taylors' series in its derivation. The proposed method has used for solving the second-order, hyperbolic equation (Telegraph equation) with the initial condition. Three examples have presented to check the effectiveness, accuracy, and convergence of the method. The solutions of the proposed method also compared with those obtained by the Adomian decomposition method (ADM), and the Homotopy analysis method (HAM). The technique is easy to implement and produces accurate results. In particular, these results display that the proposed method is efficient and better than the other methods in terms of accuracy and convergence. © 2020 Tche Quimica Group.

The synthesis of these compounds involved many routes. The first route includesd the reaction of parent compound (3-Chloro-1-methyl-1H-indazole) with amino acid (β-alanine, glycine and alanine)((1,3 and 4),then cyclized the products,with acetic anhydride produced (2,5,6).The second route included reaction of parent compound with acetamide to offer product(7) which underwent to Claisen-Schmidt,,condensation to form, chalcone(8). The last cyclized with,malononitrile to give amino, pyridine, derivative(9). Which was acylation with ethylaceto acetate to give derivative (10). When the, latter treated with HCl in ethanol produced cyclic amide (11). The third route included esterification of carboxylic group of compound (3) to produce (12) and then convert ester to, acid hydrazide (13).

Increasingly strict environmental protection regulations forced fuel producers to improve their existing technologies and consider alternative means of removing sulfur compounds from crude oil. This study focuses on the batch adsorption of crude oil using an activated carbon Impregnated with metal oxide as an adsorbent. Activated carbon was successfully synthesized from waste tire material parts, it was cut, clean, dry, subjected to heat using a muffle furnace where temperatures were different at a specific time and activated by acid. then treated with a specified amount of water, ethanol and zinc nitrate hexahydrate for loading different rations of zinc oxide which improved its surface properties that measured via BET analysis which revealed the surface area about (183, 3 m2g-1) for more efficient adsorptive desulfurization. The effects of (0.5%, 5%, 10%, 20%, and 30%) metal loading percentage, (30°C, 40°C, 50°C, 60°C and 70°C) adsorption temperature, and (2hours, 2.5hours, 3hours 3.5hours and 4hours) contact time on the desulfurization efficiency of crude oil were studied. The zinc oxide activated carbon Nano composite with an optimum loading ratio (metal oxide / AC) of 10% exhibits a high percentage of sulfur removal. Based on the present experimental work an optimum desulfurization conditions for adsorptive desulfurization using zinc oxide activated carbon Nano composite as an adsorbent was found to be 10% metal loading, 50°C adsorption temperature and 2.5hours mixing time which corresponds to a desulfurization efficiency of 83% and a decrease in the sulfur content from 1.600%wt to 0.271%wt. © 2020 Innovare Academics Sciences Pvt.

The test program includes testing ten mixtures of SLWCs with a target compressive strength of (35 – 40 MPa) and a target air density less than 1900 kg/m3 in addition, three mixtures of normal weight concrete (NWCs) of target compressive strength equal to 37.5 MPa were used for comparison purposes. For each mix of the fresh-status measurements, including slump, density, the air content and the temperature, a number were carried out. Furthermore, the mechanical performance for both SLWCs and NWCs under compressive, flexural and tensile stresses were conducted. The results show that structural lightweight concrete could be produced using recycled low-strength bricks as coarse aggregates with a reduction in dry density equal to 22%. Moreover, the reported results indicate that the compressive strength, splitting tensile strength, modulus of rupture and elastic modulus of elasticity of SLWCs were lower those for NWCs by about 5%, 14.5%, 16.5% and 17.4%, respectively. Finally, correlations between compressive behavior and flexural behavior; compressive behavior and tensile performance; flexural behavior and tensile performance for SLWCs are proposed in this study. © 2020 Trans Tech Publications Ltd, Switzerland.Density compressive; Flexural; Fresh-state; NWCs; RLSCB; SLWCs; TensileAggregates; Brick; Concrete aggregates; Concrete mixtures; Elastic moduli; Light weight concrete; Mixtures; Recycling; Software testing; Tensile strength; Compressive behavior; Mechanical behavior; Mechanical performance; Modulus of rupture; Normal weight concrete; Splitting tensile strength; Structural light weight concretes; Tensile performance; Compressive strengthTameemi, W.

Therefore, we obtain three generalized Bayesian shrinkage estimators (GBSEs). In this approach, we find the posterior risk function (PRF) of the generalized Bayesian shrinkage estimator (GBSE) with respect to each loss function. The constant formula of GBSE is computed by minimizing the PRF. In special cases, we derive two new GBSEs under the weighted loss function. Finally, we give our conclusion. © 2020 N. J.

The study shown that the thickness of the gold layer, the radius of the air holes and the radius of the liquid holes all have a significant effect on the sensitivity of the sensor, where a wavelength sensitivity of (10,500 nm/RIU) was achieved at certain simulation conditions. Under these chosen conditions, the relationship of resonance wavelength with the refractive index of the liquid was linear and this gives flexibility to extend the range of the refractive index of the analyte without changing the sensor design. Approaching or moving away of the holes from center in the proposed design has a fundamental role in determining the sensor characteristics. © 2020 International University of Sarajevo.Fiber optics; Optical sensing and sensors; Plasmonic photonic crystal fiber; SensitivityRifat, A.A., Hasan, R., Butt, H., Photonic crystal fiber-based plasmonic biosensor with external sensing approach (2017) Journal of Nanophotonics, 12 (1); Rifat, A.A., Mahdiraji, G.A., Chow, D.M., Shee, Y.G., Ahmed, R., Adikan, F.R.M., Photonic Crystal Fiber-Based Surface Plasmon Resonance Sensor with Selective Analyte Channels and Graphene-Silver Deposited Core (2015) Sensors Journal, 15 (5); Hassani, A., Skorobogatiy, M., Photonic crystal fiber-based plasmonic sensors for the detection of biolayer thickness (2009) Journal of the Optical Society of America, 26 (8); Chauhan, M., Singh, V.K., A fiber optic refractive index sensor using a high index layer of TiO2 (2020) AIP Conference Proceedings, 2220; Haque, E., Hossain, M.A., Ahmed, F., Namihira, Y., Surface Plasmon Resonance Sensor Based on Modified D-Shaped Photonic Crystal Fiber for Wider Range of Refractive Index Detection (2018) IEEE Sensors Journal, pp. 1558-1748; Erdmanis, M., Viegas, D., Hautakorpi, M., Novotny, S., Santos, J.L., Ludvigsen, H., Comprehensive numerical analysis of a surface-plasmon-resonance sensor based on an H-shaped optical fiber (2011) Optical Society of America journal, 19 (15); Hassani, A., Skorobogatiy, M., Design of the Microstructured Optical Fiber-based Surface Plasmon Resonance sensors with enhanced microfluidics (2006) Optical Society of America journal, 14 (124); Aruna Gandhi, M.S., Chu, S., Senthilnathan, K., Babu, P.R., Nakkeera, K., Li, Q., Recent Advances in Plasmonic Sensor-Based Fiber Optic Probes for Biological Applications (2019) Applied Sciences journal, 9 (5); Paul, A.K., Sarkar, G.K., Rahman, B.S., Khaleque, A., Twin Core Photonic Crystal Fiber Plasmonic Refractive Index Sensor (2018) IEEE Sensors Journal, 18 (14); Somekh, M.G., Pechprasarn, S., (2017) Surface plasmon, surface wave, and enhanced evanescent wave microscopy, , Springer; Yasli, A., Ademgil, H., Geometrical comparison of photonic crystal fiber-based surface plasmon resonance sensors (2018) Optical Engineering journal, 57 (3); Gangwar, R.K., Singh, V.K., Highly Sensitive Surface Plasmon Resonance Based D-Shaped Photonic Crystal Fiber Refractive Index Sensor (2016) Plasmonics journal, 12, pp. 1367-1372; Li, H., Li, S., Chen, H., Li, J., An, G., Zi, J., A Polarization Filter Based on Photonic Crystal Fiber with Asymmetry Around Gold-Coated Holes (2015) Plasmonics journal, 11, pp. 103-108; Li, Y., (2017) Plasmonic Optics: Theory and Applications, , Spie Press Book; Li, H.Y., Zhou, S.M., Li, J., Chen, Y.L., Wang, S.Y., Shen, Z.C., Chen, L.Y., Zhang, X.X., Analysis ofthe Drude model in metallic films (2001) Applied optics, 40 (34), pp. 6307-6311; Vial, A., Improved analytical fit of gold dispersion: Application to the modeling of extinction spectra with a finite-difference time-domain method (2005) Plasmonics journal, 10, pp. 1123-1131; Rakic, A.D., Djurisic, A.B., Elazar, J.M., Majewski, M.L., On the Performance of Graphene-Based D-Shaped Photonic Crystal Fibre Biosensor Using Surface Plasmon Resonance (2015) Applied Optics, 37 (22); Das, S., Singh, V.K., Refractive Index Sensor Based on Selectively Liquid Infiltrated Birefringent Photonic Crystal Fiber (2020) Optik journal, 201, p. 163489; Das, S., Singh, V.K., Dual Core Photonic Crystal Fiber based Surface Plasmon Resonance Biosensor (2018) Optik journal, 170, pp. 400-408; Yang, X., Lu, Y., Liu, B., Yao, J., Analysis of graphene-based photonic crystal fiber sensor using birefringence and surface plasmon resonance (2017) Plasmonics journal, 12 (2), pp. 489-496Salman, M.H.; Imam AL-Kadhim University CollegeIraq; email: moedh@alkadhum-col.eduInternational University of Sarajevo23034521EnglishPeriod. eng. nat. sci.ArticleFinalScopus2-s2.0-85088991096

The research aims to study suitability of the sediments of the sand dunes extending on one side of the international road between Nasiriya-Baghdad near the check point of Fadak as fine aggregate used for the purposes of roads construction. The results of the geotechnical evaluation of physical properties showed that the grain size analysis of the fine aggregate did not meet the requirements of the Iraqi specification and according to these results, the aggregate needs to modify. Based on liquid limits and plasticity indices and according to Iraqi specification the deposits are suitable for using as sub-grade course materials and to construct the shoulders of the road but not suitable for using as sub-base course materials. While the results of chemical tests indicate that incompatibility of the rates of organic matters and calcium carbonates with Iraqi specification. On the other hand, the chemical analysis of the sediments showed that the rates of the chlorides, sulfates, gypsum, total soluble salts and pH they were within acceptable limits of standard specifications. The mineral components of the soils were characterized by clay minerals (kaolinite and montmorillonite) and non-clay minerals (quartz, feldspar, and calcite). © 2020 International University of Sarajevo.Al-Nasiriya; Chemistry and mineralogy; Geotechnical properties; Roads works; Sand dunesRammal, M.M., Jubair, A.A., Sand dunes stabilization using silica gel and cement kiln dust (2015) Al-Nahrain University, college of engineering journal, 18 (2), pp. 179-191; (2003) Desk study on the environment in Iraq; Al-Marsoumi, A.H., Al-Asadi, M.M., Dust storms and their environmental impacts at the northwest part of Arabian gulf (a review) (2010) Journal of Iraqi desert studies, special issue of 1st scientific conference, 2 (2), pp. 43-53; Aliyas, I.M., Dimensions of desertification on sustainable development in Iraq (2016) International journal of advanced research, 4 (9), pp. 1553-1562; Suliman, A.A., Farhood, A.F., Monitoring the movement of sand dunes in Thi-Qar governorate using some spectral indicies (2017) International journal of scientific engineering and research, 5 (4), p. 113118; Adamo, N., Al-Ansari, N., Sissakian, V.K., Knutsson, S., Laue, J., Climate Change: Consequences on Iraq's environment (2018) Journal of earth sciences and geotechnical engineering, 8 (3), pp. 43-58; Abbas, B.J., The settlement evaluation of improved soft clay using sand columns and partial replacement technique (2016) International journal of engineering research and technology, 5 (7), pp. 348-355; Bhattacharya, P., Kummar, J., Bearing capacity of foundation on soft clays with granular column and trench (2017) Soils and foundations, 57 (3), pp. 488-495; Tetteh, G.M., Alakun, D.S., Asphalt road deterioration associated with mineralogy of rock aggregates-A petrographical study (2018) International journal of scientific research engineering and technology, 7 (7), pp. 572-578; Al-Dulaimy, A.J., (2005) The effect of fine aggregate on properties of concrete, , M.

Reinforced concrete beams of normal weight and lightweight's beams were conducted. The study is also done on normal strength and high strength beams in each category. The reinforced concrete used were 0% and 0.75% in each category. The lengths of the concrete beams used were 35 mm and 60 mm in each category. The longitudinal reinforcement ratio in all the beams is kept at 1.46%. The effect of types of aggregates, length of concrete beams, and concrete compressive strength were studied and results were presented with regard to the shear and flexure strengths, beam load-deflection responses, mode of failure, stiffness, energy absorption, and ductility.

Four sites have been selected along both sides of Euphrates river. The geotechnical properties were used to separate soils that may be classified as susceptible to liquefiable from those non liquefiable. The criteria which are used in this study included effect of plasticity, natural moisture content, clay content, and voids ratio on the liquefaction susceptibility of soil. This study shows that 91% of soil samples lie within cyclic mobility zone depending on plasticity chart while according to natural moisture content and clay content, 100% and 81% of soil samples were classified as non-liquefiable soils. © 2020 International University of Sarajevo.Al-Nasiriya soil; Atterberg limits; Clay content: Liquefaction; Moisture content; Plasticity propertiesI'd like to thank those respected persons who have helped and guided us to achieve this paper; they really deserve all respect and gratitude.

Fasting involves complete abstinence of oral intake throughout daytime. Patients who have hypothyroidism usually require levothyroxine (L-thyroxine) replacement, which is typically given on an empty stomach away from meals. Taking L-thyroxine replacement without feeding is challenging during the nighttime of Ramadan, in addition to being prohibited during daytime. Objectives: This study aimed to determine the best time of L-thyroxine intake during Ramadan. Methods: Fifty patients who were taking L-thyroxine treatment for primary hypothyroidism were involved in this prospective study for three months including the fasting and pre-fasting months. The patients were divided into three groups with different times of L-thyroxine intake. In the group one (pre-iftar), the patients were asked to take L-thyroxine at the time of iftar (the sunset meal) but to delay any oral intake for at least 30 minutes. In the group two (post-iftar), the patients were asked to take L-thyroxine two hours after iftar. The patients in the last group (pre-suhoor) were asked not to eat in the last two hours before suhoor (the predawn meal) and to take L-thyroxine tablet one hour prior to suhoor. Results: When thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) levels were compared before and after Ramadan, there were no significant differences neither within each group nor among all the study groups. Moreover, the frequencies of the TSH control after Ramadan showed no significant differences within each of the study groups (P = 0.18, 0.75, 1.0 for pre-suhoor, pre-iftar, and post-iftar respectively). Similarly, comparison among the groups of the study showed no significant differences regardless of whether the patients had controlled or uncontrolled TSH prior to Ramadan (P = 0.75 and 0.67, respectively). In the patients with controlled TSH before Ramadan, 8 out of 10 (pre-suhoor), 8 out of 12 (pre-iftar), and 4 out of 6 (post-iftar) maintained their control after Ramadan. While in the patients with uncontrolled TSH before Ramadan, 7 out of 10 (pre-suhoor), 6 out of 8 (pre-iftar), and 2 out of 4 (post-iftar) achieved controlled TSH after Ramadan. Conclusions: No significant differences in TSH control were observed in patients taking L-thyroxine at pre-iftar, post-iftar, or pre-suhoor time in Ramadan.

It is highly connected with T2DM that is defined by hyperglycemia, insulin resistance (IR), and hepatic malfunctions. Our study was design to determine the predictors for NAFLD’ incidence in T2DM patients. Methods: We conducted study of 299 subjects that were classified into two groups, (110) Non-Diabetic subjects and (189) T2DM patients, then the T2DM patients divided into two groups: T2DM (99) and DM+pre-NAFLD (90) patients. We measured hyperglycemia tests, Total Cholesterol, Triglycerides (Tg), Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL-C), High Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (HDL-C), Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), AST/ALT ratio, and γ-Glulamyltransferase for all groups. We determined the Triglyceride Glucose index, Interleukin-6, Alkaline Phosphate (ALKP), and C Reactive Protein (CRP) levels as biomarkers for IR and NAFLD respectively. Results: Our data demonstrated that DM+pre-NAFLD patients exhibited a significant increased in TC, TG, and LDL-C, and dramatic decreased in HDL-C compared to DM patients and Non-DM subjects. - AST, ALT, AST/ALT ratio and GGT levels showed a significant elevation in DM+pre-NAFLD and DM patients compared to the Non DM subjects. The data showed that TyG Index, IL-6, CRP and ALPK levels were increased in DM+pre-NAFLD patients only. The data showed a positive correlation between dyslipidemia, and liver function tests with IR and NAFLD biomarkers in DM+pre-NAFLD patients only. Conclusions: In T2DM, dyslipidemia deters liver enzymes functions, promotes the IR and increases the fatty liver accumulation. Liver enzymes, TyG Index, IL-6, CRP and ALPK could be non-invasive biomarkers for NAFLD in T2DM patients. ©Advanced Scientific Research.

The most commonly used human probiotics are members of the Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium species. Besides these bacteria, Saccharomyces boulardii, a yeast strain, is also widely used as a probiotic to treat a variety of conditions, including antibiotics-associated diarrhea and recurrent Clostridium difficile infection. A primary advantage of using Saccharomyces boulardii as a probiotic is that it can be used by patients undergoing antibiotic regimen due to its natural resistance to antibiotics. The genetic transfer of antibiotic resistance genes, a frequent event between pathogenic and gastrointestinal tract (GIT) bacteria, is not as frequent between yeast and bacteria. Furthermore, Saccharomyces boulardii is also tolerant to various local stresses such as the presence of gastrointestinal (GI) enzymes, bile salts, organic acids, etc. and can withstand considerable variations in pH and temperature while transiting through the human GIT. Saccharomyces boulardii is known as generally regarded as safe (GRAS)with probiotic activity against a wide range of pathogens. This yeast is often marketed in a lyophilized form,“ S. boulardii lyo”, complete sequence of the genome was performed, and a comparative analysis of the genome was performed. From clinical studies, the results of randomized controlled trials in patients repeatedly confirmed the significant positive effect in the treatment of acute and chronic diseases. © 2020, International Journal of Pharmaceutical Quality Assurance.

The product was characterized by FTIR and GPC. The thermal properties (TGA, DTA) indicated that the prepared compound was thermally stable up to 150°C. The corrosion inhibition efficiency of the new compound as a corrosion inhibitor was evaluated for carbon steel in 0.1 N HCl as a corrosive environment and the inhibitor concentration was (0, 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 ppm). The inhibition efficiency was measured by using Tafel plot in electrochemical technique. The results indicated that the effectiveness of the bis(3-mercaptopropyl)thioterephthalate as an inhibitor increases with the concentration but this characteristic is inversely related to the temperature. The inhibition efficiency (%IE) reached 97.32% for the 25 ppm concentration at 298 K. Potentiodynamic polarization measurements revealed that the product is a corrosion inhibitor of anodic type. The results showed that the inhibition occurs through adsorption of the inhibitor molecules on the C-steel surface. The adsorption of (BTPTT) on C-steel surface obeys the Langmuir adsorption isotherm and involves a chemisorption mechanism. © 2020, Russian Association of Corrosion Engineers.

First, we get the maximum probability estimators (MLE.s) for non-personal parameters. MLEs cannot be obtained in clear formats. We also consider Bayesian reasoning for nonpersonal parameters Bayes estimates and associated reliable periods cannot be we get in closed shapes. We use an important sampling technique to round (calculate) Bayes estimates and their associated reliable time periods. For in order to compare we also used the accurate method to calculate Bayes. estimaties and related reliable periods. Monte Carlo simulation is performed using the R programming language to compare the proposed fashion performance, and one data set was analyzed for illustration purposes. We take into account the Bayes forecast trouble based on observable sampling. © 2020, Anka Publishers.

Some azomethine compounds are very interesting material because of rich liquid crystalline polymorphism. Liquid crystals were discovered in 1888 by Australian Botanist Friedrich Reinitzer. The liquid crystal state was between the traditional solid and liquid phases and this is the origin of the term “mesogenic state.” The aim of the present work is to synthesize three series of Schiff bases S1, S2, and S3 using the microwave; the synthesized Schiff base has a number of carbon atoms at the terminal alkoxy chain with liquid crystal properties. Methodology: The prepared compounds were characterized qualitatively by Fourier transform infrared,1H-NMR,13C-NMR, and CHN analysis. The liquid crystalline properties of L1-L11 were verified using differential scanning calorimetry and hot-stage polarizing microscope (polarizing optical microscope). Results: A series of Schiff base (S1-S3) have been synthesized from the reaction of different amines (o-phenyldiamine,3,3’-dimethylbiphenyl-4,4’-diamine,pyridine-2,6-diamine) with some substituted aldehydes. The1H-NMR spectra of the synthesized compounds (S1-S3) in the DMSO-d6 as a solvent exhibited a singlet peak at 8.75, 8.56, and 8.67 ppm, respectively. Conclusion: Three series of Schiff bases S1, S2, and S3 were prepared using the microwave; the synthesized Schiff base has a number of carbon atoms at the terminal alkaoxyl chain with liquid crystal properties. © 2019 JPR Solutions.

Astafiev, Russian Federation; Kamosa, T.L., Siberian Federal University, Krasnoyarsk, Russian Federation; Plotnikovа, I.I., Irkutsk State University, Irkutsk, Russian FederationPurpose: To develop a module of need-motivational training tasks of the section “Volleyball for students aged 11-12”.. Material: The experiment involved the schoolchildren aged 11-12 (n=43). The schoolchildren had no contraindication to the physical education. Classes according to the author’s module of need-motivational teaching tasks were conducted with the secondary school students of the fifth form “A” (n=22, experimental class). Pupils of the fifth form “B” (n=21) took a traditional training program during the physical education lesson of the “Volleyball” section. The study was conducted for two months (October-December 2018). Each pupil used a fitness bracelet during the class monitoring the heart rate at a physical education lesson. Special testing was used in three blocks. The first block is the calculation of the number of correctly performed technical actions with the ball without a partner. The second block is the calculation of the technical actions in pairs through the net. The third block is an educational game. Statistical analysis of the data was performed using t-student test.. Results: A significant (p<0.01 and p<0.05) advantage of the secondary school students of the experimental class was revealed in comparison with another approach to teaching the technical elements of volleyball. A higher mastery level of the basic elements in volleyball was obtained according to the special set of tasks: receiving and passing the ball with two hands from above; receiving and passing the ball with two hands from below (in place, with various types of movements, with lightened and complicated conditions). Conclusions: It is proved that an increase of the theoretical needful-motivational teaching tasks during the physical education classes has a positive effect on the activation of motor activity of the schoolchildren. The synergetic relationship between theoretical and practical training allows to achieve personal, regulatory, communicative, cognitive and objective results. © Nagovitsyn R.S., Kudryavtsev M.D., Osipov A.Yu., Altuvaini A.H., Markov K.K., Doroshenko S.A., Kuzmin V.A., Savchuk A.N., Kamosa T.L., Plotnikovа I.

This is mentioned by the legislator as an exception, because the general rule is that the administration must achieve written editorial control with the employee through the formation of an investigative committee, and it has, as an exception, recourse to these. Since the administrative interrogation is considered an exception from the original, it is not permissible to expand it by imposing other disciplinary penalties that differ from those specified by the legislator exclusively. In the event that this happens, the administrative decision becomes defective in form and procedures, which makes it deserve nullity. The administrative interrogation differs from the interrogation carried out by the investigative committee in the administrative investigation. This is because the administrative interrogation is a stand-alone procedural method. The legislator has the choice, in certain cases, to oversee the administration between the investigation or the interrogation, provided that the results of the interrogation are represented by the employee's conviction of the charges attributed. The employee must be punished with specific penalties, namely, (striking, issuing a warning, or salary deduction). © 2020, Primrose Hall Publishing Group.Administration; Criminal; InterrogationAbdul-Hamid, A.T., (2011) Administrative Investigation, One of the Guarantees of the Accused, Study in Iraqi Law, , www0iasaj.net, Published on the website; Shnawi, A.K., (2008) Studies in the Public Employment, University of Jordan Press, Amman; (2014) The decision of the Egyptian Supreme Administrative Court is considered on 2/26/1966, p.

NSAIDs are include more than 20 agents that differs in their affinity toward this enzyme and thus differ in their analgesic, antipyretic, antiinflammatory and adverse effects.1 Aim: Aim of this current study is to validate non-steroidal intiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) pattern selection in Nasiriya city- South of Iraq. Method: 82 physicians were asked about the Non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs they prescribe for their patients, the dose, dosage form, dose frequency, concomitant drugs (objective from administration of these drugs with NSAIDs) and adverse effect. The study period was extended from January 2019 till July 2019. Results: The most prescribed NSAIDs was found Ibuprofen (32.9%) and Diclofenac sodium (28.1%) and the other NSAIDs including Mefenamic acid and others account for (39%) and in term the investigation of dosage form we found that the oral dosage form is the more dominant. Conclusion: We find out, Ibuprofen and Diclofenac sodium is suitable for self-medication with regards to its relatively wide spectrum of indication, good tolerance and safety. Overall, it has been rated respectively as the most prescribed conventional NSAIDs. © 2020 EManuscript Technologies.

Two genetic loci covering two regions within the CTLA4 and PTPN22 genes were amplified by PCR. Next, a direct sequencing strategy was performed for the observed PCR amplicons to assess the pattern of genetic polymorphism in the screened specimens. Subsequently, the observed variants were localized according to their positions within the referring genomic DNA sequences. The results indicated a significant increase (P<0.05) in thyroxin(T4) and triiodothyronine (T3) hormones while no significant changes of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) compared with health group. In addation, Our results indicated the presence of only one single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the CTLA4 gene that was only localized in only one investigated patient sample compared with the normal referring sequences. This novel SNP, A81G, was observed in one samples, while no other SNP was detected in other samples . However, no variation was detected in all investigated samples concerning the investigated PTPN22 gene. In conclusion, the present study detected a novel A81G SNP within the targeted CTLA4 gene which may be associated with the progression of hyperthyroidism. Further large-scale screening studied is highly recommended to provide a more comprehensive view of this crucial genetic locus in Iraqi populations. © 2020 EManuscript Technologies.

In the current research, the SST k-ω model and finite volume method were employed to augment heat transfer into the separation flow of TiO2 nanofluid in the annular space of two concentric cylinders. In the present investigation TiO2 nanoparticles of volume fractions, 0.5%-2% at Reynolds number range of 10000-40000, and contraction ratios from 1 to 2 were considered at constant heat flux boundary condition. Simulation results reveal that the highest enhancement in the heat transfer coefficient is corresponding to the annular pipe with a contraction ratio of 2 due to the generated re-circulation flow zone that begins after the separation point on the wall. Further, the surface heat transfer coefficient enhances with the increase of nanoparticles volume fraction and Reynolds number. The velocity distribution profile before and after the steps reveals that increasing the height of the step and Reynolds number, re-circulation regions also increases. Numerical results indicate that the highest pressure drop occurs at the Re = 40000 and contraction ratio of 2. © 2020 Society of Thermal Engineers of Serbia.Abrupt contraction; Concentric cylinders; Nanofluids;

Methodology: A total of 624 patients with scabies attended the dermatology and venereal department at Al-Hussein teaching hospital in Thi-Qar Governorate, Most of the patients received topical treatment and a few resistant patients received oral treatment. Fourty of them were selected to measure the levels of IL-4 in serum in addition to forty healthy people as control samples by ELISA. The results: found that the maximum number of scabies patients was reported within age group 11-20 years 143 (22.9 %), the mange frequency was 55.9% in males and 44.1% in females. Topical 5-10% sulfur treatment was the used treatment in 61.7% of patient. Also, The finding of current study demonstrated increase in the serum level of IL-4 in mange patients serum (902.925 ±83.494pg/ml) comparing with healthy (366.950± 41.674). Conclusion: Scabies was high in individuals younger than 20 and children which can identified as high-risk category. Topical 5-10% mass treatment is the best suggested treatment for scabies patients in Thi-Qar, also an elevated levels of IL-4 is indication of activation of TH2 that induce hypersensitivity reaction by IgE production. © Advanced Scientific Research.

The first developed imaging method (Method 1) was firstly investigated on a metallic plate. A network of nine piezoelectric wafer active sensors (PWAS) was instrumented on an aluminum plate to receive impact signals. Based on Method 1, we need at least three sensors, which can be used to determine two hyperbolic paths, to localize an impact point on a metalic plate with known group velocities of generated waves (known its material properties). The observed results indicate that Method 1 can be used successfully to localize the impact points on a metallic plate. These successful results motivated us to investigate Method 1 on a composite plate. A second experiment of impact localization was implemented on a composite plate. Two clusters of sensors (every cluster has three PWAS transducers) were instrumented on the composite specimen to receive the generated acoustic waves due to break pencil leads at different points. The received signals were anaylized using a wavelet transform to determine the time of flight. The group velocity profile of antisymmetric Lamb wave mode was determined analytically at certain frequency. Based on Method 1, two hyperbolic paths, which are generated by four sensors, can be used successfully to localize the impact points on a composite plate with known its material properties. The second developed imaging method (Method 2) was investigated on the same composite specimen with assumption of unknown its material properties (unknown group velocity profile of generated wave). Based on Method 2, we need six sensors distributed on two clusters to determine two straight line paths. The intersection point of these two lines represents the impact point. The results showed that Method 2 can successfully localize the impact points on a composite plate. © 2020 SPIE.group velocity profile; imaging methods; impact localization; Lamb waves; piezoelectric wafer active sensorsAcoustic transducers; Integrated control; Light velocity; Surface waves; Wavelet transforms; A-wavelet transform; Composite plates; Composite specimens; Group velocities; Intersection points; Piezoelectric wafer active sensors; Received signals; Straight-line paths; Plates (structural components)Coelho, C.K., Hiche, C., Chattopadhyay, A., Impact localization and force estimation on a composite wing using fiber bragg gratings sensors (2010) Proc.

However, the prioritisation process for patients with multiple chronic diseases (MCDs) over telemedicine is becoming increasingly complex due to diverse and big data generated from multiple disease conditions. To solve such a problem, massive datasets must be collected, and high velocity must be acquired, specifically in real-time processing. This process requires decision-making (DM) regarding the emergency degree of each chronic disease for every patient. Multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) approaches (i.e. direct aggregation, distance measurement and compromise ranking) are the main solutions for dealing with this complex situation. However, each MCDM approach provides a unique rank from those of other methods. By far, the preferred DM approach that can provide an ideal rank better than other approaches has not been established. This study proposes an extension of the technique for reorganising opinion order to interval levels (TROOIL). Such an extension is called Hybrid DM and Voting Method (HDMVM) which is based on different DM approaches (i.e. direct aggregation, distance measurement and compromise ranking). HDMVM is used to prioritise big data of patients with MCDs in real-time through the remote health-monitoring procedure. In this paper, we propose a methodology that is based on three sequential stages. The first stage illustrates how the big data of patients with MCDs can be recognised in the telemedicine environment and identifies the target telemedicine tier in this study. The second stage describes the steps of the proposed HDMVM sequentially. The third stage applies the proposed method by prioritising the case study of big data of patients with MCDs based on the above DM approaches. Moreover, dataset of remote patients with MCDs ( n = 500 ) is adopted, which contains three diseases, namely, chronic heart diseases and high and low blood pressures. The prioritisation results vary among direct aggregation, distance measurement and compromise approaches. The proposed HDMVM effectively provides a uniform and final ranking result for big data of patients with MCDs. A statistical method (i.e. mean) is performed to objectively validate the ranking results. Significant differences between the scores of the groups are identified in the objective validation, signifying identical ranking results. The evaluation of the proposed work with the benchmark study indicates that this study has tackled issues relevant to big data and diversity of MCDM approaches in the prioritisation of patients with MCDs. © 2013 IEEE.Big data; Chronic disease; Decision-making; HDMVM; Intelligent; Prioritisation; TelemedicineBig data; Blood pressure; Decision making; Diseases; Distance measurement; Health care; Telemedicine; Benchmark study; Chronic disease; Healthcare services; Massive data sets; Modern health care; Multi-criteria decision making; Realtime processing; Remote health monitoring; Remote patient monitoringUniversiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris: 2019–0125–109–01This work was supported by the Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris, Malaysia UPSI Rising Star Grant 2019, under Grant 2019–0125–109–01.Sims, J.M., Communities of practice: Telemedicine and online medical communities (2018) Technol.

Solving large-scale NLPs are usually so computationally expensive for resource-constrained users within a feasible time. The cost-effective solution is computation outsourcing, but this raises security concerns such as the input and output privacy of the customers, and cheating behaviors of the cloud since NLP problems always carry sensitive information. In this paper, we develop a practical secure and verifiable schema for solving outsourcing large-scale (NLP) with the GRG method. Also, we apply approximate KKT conditions for verifying the optimality of the result returned by the GRG algorithm. We implement the proposed schema on the customer side laptop and using AWS compute domain elastic compute cloud (EC2) for the cloud side. © 2020 Hampstead Psychological Associates.

Where aborted fetus is weighing less than 500 g. Human cytomegalovirus infections is one of several factors related to spontaneous abortion. Aim: To determine the levels of oxidative stress (malondialdehyde) (MDA), (ceruloplasmin, transferrin, Vitamin C) (Cp,Tf,Vit.C) in aborted women with cytomegalovirus(IgG, IgG positive). Material and method: A case control study include (60) women aborted with CMV (Patients), (60) healthy women (positive controls) and (60) women aborted without CMV (negative controls). at the period between(November, 2017) to (May, 2018). Spss version 23 had been used for data analysis, P value <0.05 was considered as significant Results: There was a significant increase in the serum levels of (MDA, Tf, Cp) in patient group, and a significant decrease in the serum levels of (Vit.C) in patient group throughout the general comparison among the patients group, negative control group andpositive control group. Age has a big role, with significant statistical difference in detected levels of oxidations. According to age, the results show a presence of a significant increase in (MDA) patient older in comparison with young patients. (p≤0.05). We found significant increase in concentration of serum (Cp, Tf, Vit.C, Cu) in younger patient in comparison with other age groups (p≤0.05).. Conclusion: lipid peroxidation and the antioxidant system associates with abortion with CMV and abortion without CMV levels, the age effects positively on the levels of (MDA, NO) and effects negatively on the levels of (Cp, Tf, Vit.C,), levels of IgG associate with (MDA, Cp, Tf, Vit.C) positively. © Annals of Tropical Medicine & Public HealthAbortion; Cytomegalovirus; Oxidative Stressantioxidant; ascorbic acid; ceruloplasmin; Cytomegalovirus antibody; immunoglobulin G; malonaldehyde; transferrin; abortion; adolescent; adult; Article; blood level; case control study; ceruloplasmin blood level; controlled study; cytomegalovirus infection; female; hospital based case control study; human; Iraq; iron binding capacity; major clinical study; oxidative stress; transferrin blood level; vitamin blood levelascorbic acid, 134-03-2, 15421-15-5, 50-81-7; ceruloplasmin, 9031-37-2; immunoglobulin G, 97794-27-9; malonaldehyde, 542-78-9; transferrin, 82030-93-1Abdul-Karim, E.T., Abdul-Muhymen, N., Al-Saadie, M., Chlamydia trachomatis and rubella antibodies in women with full-term deliveries and women with abortion in Baghdad (2009) East Mediterr Health J, 15, pp. 1407-1411; Agarwal, A., Gupta, S., Sharma, R.K., Role of oxidative stress in female reproduction (2005) Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, (3), pp. 28-35; Agarwal, A., Allamaneni, S.S., Role of free radicals in female reproductive diseases and assisted reproduction (2004) Reproductive Biomedicine Online, 9 (3), pp. 338-347; Agarwal, A., Gupta, S., Sharma, R.K., Role of oxidative stress in female reproduction (2005) Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 3 (1), p. 28; Aisen, P., Transferrin metabolism and the liver (1984) Semin.

The management of these polyps is complex since they can carry malignant lesions. Our study had aimed to analyze the results of ultrasound and pathological findings of patients operated upon due to polyps in the gallbladder. The study includes patients with ultrasound diagnosis of gallbladder polyps who underwent cholecystectomy in 2017-2019 were reviewed, and demographic, sonographic and histopathological data were collected. Sixty-eight patients were involved in the study. The median age was 42 ± 7 years, and 63.2% of our patients were women. The average size of the ultrasound polyps was 6.8 ± 4 mm. Histopathology confirmed the presence of polyps in 95.6% of patients, with an average size and number of lesions of 7.5 ± 5.8 mm and 1.7 ± 1.2, respectively. Eight polyps were larger than 10 mm, and the individual polyps were significantly larger than the multiple ones (p = 0. 004). Three cases of adenoma were diagnosed (4.6%); one of them was cancer in situ. All were single and over 10 mm. We found an important correlation between determining the size of an ultrasound polyp and the pathological anatomy (r = 0.93; p = 0.002). The tumor size was an indication of the presence of adenoma (p = 0.009, (95% CI = 1,113-1,678). We have concluded that there is a clear correlation between the size of the gallbladder tumor on ultrasound and the size in the pathological report. Gallbladder adenoma is uncommon and it correlates with the size of the polyp. In this study, the size was the only indicator of the presence of adenoma. © Annals of Tropical Medicine & Public HealthGall bladder adenoma; Gallbladder pathology; Gallbladder polypadenoma; adult; Article; carcinoma in situ; cholecystectomy; cholelithiasis; echography; female; gallbladder polyp; gallbladder tumor; histopathology; human; major clinical study; male; pathological anatomyAkyürek, N., Salman, B., Irkörücü, O., Şare, M., Tatlicioǧlu, E., Ultrasonography in the diagnosis of true gallbladder polyps: The contradiction in the literature (2005) Hpb, 7 (2), pp. 155-158; Konstantinidis, I.T., Bajpai, S., Kambadakone, A.R., Tanabe, K.K., Berger, D.L., Zheng, H., Gallbladder lesions identified on ultrasound.

There are many early complications that may occur after laparoscopic total thyroidectomy due to a new technique in total removal of the thyroid gland to give excellent cosmetic results. In our study, we compared the incidence of early complications, which occur within early 30 postoperative days, between LTT (laparoscopic total thyroidectomy) and OTT (open total thyroidectomy). 122 patients who had total thyroidectomy operation for simple multinodular goiter, 58 patients underwent LTT, while 64 patients OTT in GIT center in Thi-Qar city. All the operations were done by the same surgeon for all patients. The study was done through 2 years, from 1/5/2017 till 30/4/2019, through breast approach and collar incision. The surgical outcome has recorded the complications that occur to the patients within 30 days post-operatively. Results: the main age of patients in LTT was 39.6 and in OTT was 48.2 (p= 004). The operating time in LTT was 125.4+ 4 minutes, while in OTT was 92.6+2 (p=0.03). There were no significant differences in hospital stay in both groups. Patients with OTT experienced more pain than the ETT group postoperatively as evaluated by a visual analog scale. Cosmetically group LTT was very satisfied with this procedure according to the questionnaire we used. The follow-up period was 30 days only. The early complications were no significant differences between 2 groups as the LTT done by experience laparoscopic hands. 2 cases (3.5%) only converted to open procedure. Conclusion: LTT procedure is a new technique used to give an excellent cosmetic result rather than used collar incision in the midline of the neck; there are no significant differences in all early complications that may occur in LTT and OTT. LTT must be applied by an experienced laparoscopic hand. © Annals of Tropical Medicine & Public HealthEarly complications; Laparoscopic; Total thyroidectomyadult; Article; follow up; goiter; human; incidence; intermethod comparison; laparoscopic surgery; length of stay; major clinical study; operation duration; postoperative complication; questionnaire; surgical approach; surgical technique; thyroidectomy; treatment outcome; visual analog scaleGagner, M., Endoscopic subtotal parathyroidectomy in patient with primary hyperparathyroididism (1996) Br J Surg, 83, p. 875. , veiw article PubMedGooglescholar; Hüscher, C.S., Chiodini, S., Napolitano, C., Recher, A., Endoscopic right thyroid lobectomy (1997) Surgendosc, 11 (8), p. 877. , veiw article PubMedGooglescholar; Duh, Q.-Y., Presidential address: Minimally invasive endocrine surgery-standers of treatment or hype?

The aim of this study was to determine the role of Manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) gene polymorphism [rs4880 Val16Ala)] in exposed workers and to compare the levels of metals and minerals among its various genotypes in control group. A total of 80 individuals including age and gender matched workers and control group were genotyped. Detection of rs4880 polymorphism was done using sequencing technique. The blood serum were tested for determination of metals and minerals using Atomic absorption spectrophotometer (AA 6600 Shimadzu). This study indicate that the frequency of T allele was higher than that of C allele in control group as well as in workers. Our results indicate no association between all genotypes in study subjects. The results of present study indicates that Pb and Cd concentration differ significantly between TT genotypes of MnSOD (rs4880) gene polymorphism as compared to CC genotypes in workers and control group (p<0.05). Control group with TT, TC and CC genotypes have high concentration of Fe, Cu and Zn as compared to workers group. © 2020, World Informations Syndicate.

The Aims of the study were to assess the general workers› health. and to explore the determinants) risk factors and causes(of the occupational disease within selected fields of work in Al-Nasiriyah province at 2018. Method and material: An analytical cross-sectional study was conducted in Al Nasiriyah thermal electrical plant, cable plant and oil refinery in the Al Nasiriyah -province at 2018. A multistage cluster sampling method was conducted to recruit)369(workers. The data gathered by survey questionnaire and processed by statistical analysis. Result: The extent of occupational exposure was about 89.7% with exposed to the non-exposed ratio) 8.7:1 (. About 31.8% of the workers exposed to the respiratory hazards (thinner, PVF, PVC, Ammonia and acoustic agents). About exposed cases with RADS (41cases) had about)0.000(P. value. The Noise exposure had 71.5%)264(. of the workers The exposed cases with NIHL (23 cases) had about)0.015(. P. value. An odds ratio of the occupationally exposed to the non-exposed worker was equal to 19.1. Binary Logistic Regression was done to adjust the confounder factors for systematically classified occupational diseases which augments the significance of the association for occupational exposure, age and work duration.

The disease causes substantial morbidity, mortality and long term complications. Herbs and natural products have been used in treatment of diabetes mellitus. Herbs and other plant products are considered more natural. They are a kind of home treatment and can be a part of home usual diet. Use of herbs is becoming popular more and more and is more appropriate for use in developing countries. The aim of this study was to examine the prevalence of use of herbal remedies among diabetic population in Nasiriya and to identify factors which might predict the likelihood of using herbal remedies. Cinnamon (Darcien) 12.3% and Black cumin(Habba soda) 11%. On univariant analysis, the factors which were found to affect the herbs use were education, occupation, type of diabetes mellitus, duration of diabetes, marital status and age. Using data analysis, the significantly associated factors were occupation type of treatment and drug regularity. Health care providers should respect patients’ wishes to use herbal remedies and should provide advices about treatment by herbal remedies. © 2020, World Informations Syndicate.

Recently laparoscopic total thyroidectomy was become popular in experience laparoscopic hand surgeons. Among patients, we noticed many early complications that may occur after laparoscopic total thyroidectomy due to a new technique in total removal of thyroid gland to give an excellent cosmetic result. In our study we want to do comparative study for incidence of early complication (which occur within early 30 postoperative day) between LTT (laparoscopic total thyroidectomy) and OTT (open total thyroidectomy). The prospective study done to 122 patients who mad total thyroidectomy for simple multinodular goiter. 58 patients underwent LTT and 64 patients OTT in GIT center in Thi-Qar city which are done by the same surgeon for all patients. study done through 2 years 1/5/2017 till 30/4/2019 through breast approach and collar incision. Surgical outcome records the complications that occur to the patients within 30 days post-operatively. The main age of patients in LTT was 39.6 ± 6.4 and in OTT was 48.2±8 (p= 004). The operating time in LTT 125.4± 4 minutes while in OTT was 92.6± 2 (p=0.03). There were no significant differences in hospital stay in both groups. patients with OTT experienced more pain than ETT group postoperatively as evaluated by a visual analog scale. Cosmetically group LTT were very satisfied with this procedure according to the questionnaire we used. The fallow up period was 30 days only. most of early complications are no significant differences between 2 groups as the LTT done by experience laparoscopic hands. 2 cases (3.5%) only were convert to open procedure. Conclusion: LTT procedure is a new technique used to give an excellent cosmetic result rather than used collar incision in the midline of the neck, there are no significant differences in all early complications that may occur in LTT and OTT. LTT must be done by an experience laparoscopic hand. © 2020, World Informations Syndicate.

Although there is a rising incidence in the frequencies of BC, there were not enough studies conducted on the incidence’s frequencies over the Iraqi women in Thi-Qar provinces. It is well-known that incidence rates are informative. Analysis of tendencies would advantage in planning and organizing programs for control cancers incidence. Objective: The objective of the following study is to calculate the risk of BC using updated data from the cancer registries in the Iraqi health ministry and document its tendencies that released in different periods. Materials and Method: Data on incidence rates of BC were obtained from cancer registries of Iraq for the period between 2009 and 2015. Annual percent change in incidence and risk in terms of one in the number of women likely to develop cancer was estimated for both cancers’ types in five cities in Thi-Qar province. Results: The incidence of BC ages group (45-49), (50-54) and (60-64) were significantly increased, while the age group (15-19) were significantly decreased. On the other hand, the higher increase in the incidence of BC in 2015 was reported to be 84 and 29 cases in Al-Nassiriya and Al-Shatra cities, respectively. Conclusion: Al-Refaey region recorded a decline in the incidence of BC, which is contrary to the observation in other cities, which showed an increase in breast cancer. On the other hand, the north side of the city which known to be more contaminated with pollution has higher incidence rate. © 2020, World Informations Syndicate.

As well as, most of applied theories or predicted formulas deduced analytically from previous studies were feasible only for a particular testing environment and do not match other field or laboratory datasets. However, the performance of such techniques depends largely on input parameters that really affect the target output and missing of any parameter can lead to inaccurate results and give a false indicator. In the current study, data were collected from previous related literature including parameters handling the behavior of stone column and governing its bearing capacity. They included some parameters that were not considered previously; the undrained cohesion of soil, angle of internal friction and modulus of elasticity of fill material, area replacement ratio, and length to diameter ratio. The new model was generated using Neural Network Toolbox in MATLAB, all the five key parameters were treated as input data while the bearing capacity as the output data wanted to be predicted. A single hidden layer of twenty artificial neurons has been adopted in the generation of the model. The results and the regression analysis showed a high potential of using neural artificial network method in predicting the ultimate bearing capacity of soil strengthened with stone column. Thus, the study contributes in producing a reliable outcome as an alternative to using findings of costly and time consuming field or experimental tests. © 2020, Research Trend.

It occurs due to a lack of semen and low-quality semen. Semen Quality is referred to as a surrogate measure of male fecundity. This study aims to assess the frequency of sperm factors in infertile men in Thi-Qar City. Materials and Methods: This study involved an infertile couple, seminal fluid analysis (SFA) was done to evaluate male factors. Males with normal seminal fluid parameters were excluded. Regarding male, SFA was examined according to WHO 2010. Information such as age, duration of infertility and type of infertility were taken Results Among the percentage of abnormal sperm parameters for infertile couples in which the largest percentage was for asthenozoospermia that represent 66.70% of all infertile males. The second sperm abnormality is 12.13% for oligoasthenozoospermia. Asthenoteratozoospermia and oligoasthenoteratozoospermia have the same percentage (4.4). Azoospermia represents 6.7% while the lower percentage for teratozoospermia. Conclusions largest percentage was for asthenozoospermia that represents 66.70% of all infertile males. © 2020, World Informations Syndicate.

While the students in the control group were being trained through the traditional method of teaching, the students in the experimental group were being trained in critical thinking skills. Pre-tests and post-tests were used as the instruments of this study. Data were analysed through an Independent Sample T-Test, using SPSS software. The results revealed that there was a significant relationship between critical thinking skill instruction and the Iraqi EFL university students' reading comprehension proficiency and hence, critical thinking skill positively affects students reading comprehension, leading to its development. © 2020 Primrose Hall Publishing Group.Critical thinking; Critical thinking skills; EFL learners; Reading comprehensionBruce, T., Developmental Changes in Teachers' Beliefs About Critical-Thinking Activities (2005) Journal of Educational Psychology, 97 (1), pp. 13-22; Chimeh, Z.A., Azodanlou, M., Shahhoseini, V., The Effect of Critical Thinking Skills on Reading Proficiency of English Learners: A Pragmatic Approach (2017) Foreign Language Research Journal; D'Angelo, E., Critical Thinking in Reading (1971) National Council of Teachers of English, 48 (8), pp. 946-950; Elder, L., (2004) The State of Critical Thinking Today: The need for a Substantive Concept of Critical Thinking, , http://www.criticalthinking.org/resources/articles/the-state-ct-today.shtml; Esmaili, S., Motaghizadeh, I., An investigation the effect of critical thinking skills on reading comprehension of literary Arabic texts among Iranian Language and Literature Arabic students (2016) Language Related Research, 8 (2), pp. 101-125; Gelder, T.V., Teaching Critical Thinking: Some Lessons From Cognitive Science (2005) College Teaching Journal, 53 (1), pp. 41-48; Kealey, B., Holland, J., Watson, M., Preliminary Evidence on the Association Between Critical Thinking and Performance in Principles of Accounting (2005) Issues in Accounting Education, 20 (1), pp. 39-44; Khalili, H., Babamohammady, H., Hajiaghajani, S., The effects of two educational methods, classic and critical thinking strategies, on the stable learning of nursing students (2004) Koomesh, 5 (2), pp. 53-62; Murawski, L.M., Critical Thinking in the Classroom. and Beyond (2014) Journal of Learning in Higher Education, 10 (1), pp. 25-30; Oliver, H., Utermohlen, R., (1995) An innovative teaching strategy: Using critical thinking to give students a guide to the future, , (Eric Document Reproduction Services No. 389 702); Paul, R., Elder, L., (2008) Defining critical thinking, , http://www.criticalthinking.org/DefiningCriticalThinking.html, Retrieved September 22, 2009; Richardson, V., Anders, P., Tidwell, D., Lloyd, C., The Relationship Between Teachers' Beliefs and Practices in Reading Comprehension Instruction (1991) American Educational Research Journal, 28 (3), pp. 559-586; Rivers, W.P., Autonomy at All Costs: An Ethnography of Metacognitive Self Assessment and Self Management among Experienced Language Learners (2001) The Modern Language Journal, 85 (2), pp. 279-290; Shabani, H., (2004) Advanced Teaching Methodology, , Tehran: SAMT Publication; VanTassel-Baska, J., Bracken, B., Feng, A., Brown, E., A Longitudinal Study of Enhancing Critical Thinking and Reading Comprehension in Title I Classrooms (2009) Journal for the Education of the Gifted, 33 (1), pp. 7-37; Whitten, D., Predictors of Critical Thinking Skills of Incoming Business Students (2011) Academy of Educational Leadership Journal, 15 (1); Wolters, C.A., Pintrich, P.R., Karabenick, S.A., Assessing Academic aSelf-Regulated Learning (2005) Paper Presented at the Conference on Indicators of Positive Development: What Do Children Need to Flourish?, pp. 251-270. , Sponsored by Child Trends, National Institutes of Health, USA; Yeh, Y.C., Nurturing reflective teaching during critical-thinking instruction in computer simulation program (2004) Computers and Education, 42 (2), pp. 181-194Primrose Hall Publishing Group22011315EnglishInt.

It aims to find out three essential elements of argumentation: type of argumentation, type of difference of opinion and defence support. The study hypothesizes that complex argumentation, multiple non-mixed differences and multiple defence support are used due to the complicated nature of issues and events in the country. The study adopts Eemeren et al., (2002) as a model to analyse the data under scrutiny.

It will focus on the interactional practice of asking questions in Arabic political interviews. The study seeks to find out the kind of actions associated with the practice of questioning and answering in this setting, and what it tells us about the institutional responsibilities of its participants. Such transcripts which are widely available online can be utilised as an authentic language material for political discourse studies. Results showed that there are unique functions and forms to the question and answering turns in this institutional setting of talk, political interview. These functions are affected by the institutional mandate of the interviewer and the interviewees. Such differences may be the result of the specific institutional responsibilities that are framing the conversation and how it contributes in clarifying the public opinion with confrontational questions, considering the interviewee position as the top government figure in the country, the Prime Minister. Question/answer sequencing has been identified as a matter of concern in political interviews. According to the researchers' knowledge and the literature reviewed, no systematic study has been undertaken in the context of an Arabic (Iraqi in particular) TV show discourse, with political concerns. Approaches on talk-in-interaction, institutional talk and its effect on conversation will be applied. A literature review for these approaches is described with a focus on the question/answer turns. The data to be investigated consists of a single episode of Al Arabiyah "Frankly" show transcripts. © 2020, Primrose Hall Publishing Group.Authentic language; Political interviews; TV show discourseAtkinson, J.M., Heritage, J., Introduction (1984) Structures of Social Action: Studies in conversation Analysis, pp. 1-16. , In J.M.

Al-Hussainawy A.A.F.57216728000;Toni Morrison's desdemona in the light of dante's suffering spirits: Confessions in the divine comedy2020International Journal of Innovation, Creativity and Change1292238https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85084409426&partnerID=40&md5=8f8a8efddbcc7aad1ce6be08083ee591Department of English, College of Education for Humanities, University of Thi-Qar, IraqAl-Hussainawy, A.A.F., Department of English, College of Education for Humanities, University of Thi-Qar, IraqThe focus of this study is on the metaphorical portrayal of the insistent need of the spirits to confess flaws and actions they once engaged in when they were in earthly bodies, now they are living in a world in the afterlife. This theme is clearly reflected in Dante's The Divine Comedy (1308-1321), a long epic poem. Accordingly, this study deals with Toni Morrison's Desdemona (2011) in light of the confessions of Dante's suffering spirits' who are portrayed as characters in his Divine Comedy, shedding light in particular on the subject of individuals who have died and so are prevented in communicating to the living. Therefore, metaphorically converting the setting literarily to the afterlife gives an opportunity to specific individuals to reveal what they want to tell, and this is the best way for authors to communicate and give their viewpoints. Depending on this thread, the character of Desdemona is the victim in Shakespeare's Othello (1603). This heroine is unjustly accused of infidelity after too few days of marriage to Othello and killed without her truth being told. Morrison attempts to give a voice to this victim to tell what she wants to reveal but from the afterlife, a metaphorical world. The study is divided into several accounts, beginning with an introduction and a background illustrating and preparing the main important relevant points. Dante's The Divine Comedy is explained in a separate section according to the chosen theme. Then, Morrison's Desdemona is analysed in light of the intended purpose. Conclusions are presented to clarify the results. © 2020 Primrose Hall Publishing Group.Afterlife; Dante; Desdemona; Morrison; The divine comedyBanerjee, R.D.K., The Dantean Overview: The Epigraph to 'Prufrock' (1972) Comparative Literature, 87, pp. 962-966. , JSTOR 2907793; Carney, J.E., Being Born a Girl': Toni Morrison's Desdemona (2014) Borrowers & Lenders: The Journal of Shakespeare and Appropriation, , 9.1; Craig, L.W., A journey into the land of no return: Death attitudes and perceptions of death and afterlife in ancient near eastern literature (2008) Honors College Capstone Experience/Thesis Projects, p. 106. , http://digitalcommons.wku.edu/stu_hon_theses/106; Cumming, P., I didn't want to come back: Toni Morrison life, death and Desdemona (2015), http://www.smh.com.au/entertainment/i-didnt-want-to-come-; Dante, A., Divine comedy-Inferno (2008) Translated by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, , Texas: RDMc Publishing; (2019), Encyclopedia.com; Desdemona takes the microphone: Toni Morrison and Shakespeare's hidden women (2011) A two-part symposium at University of California Berkeley, , 27 October; Harrison, R.P., Comedy and modernity: Dante's Hell (1987) Modern Language Notes 102, (5), pp. 1043-1061; Hatcher, A., Dante's Ulysses and Guido da Montefeltro (1970) Dante Studies, with the Annual Report of the Dante Society No. 88, 9, pp. 109-117; Hawkins, P., Jacoff, R., The poet Dante: Twentieth-century responses (2002), New York: Farrar, Straus and Giroux; Holmer, J., Desdemona, woman warrior: 'O, these men, these men (2005) Medieval and Renaissance drama in England: An Annual gathering of research, criticism and reviews, 17, pp. 132-164; James, H., Dido's Ear: Tragedy and the Politics of Response (2001) Shakespeare Quarterly, 52 (3), pp. 360-382; Katz, D., The image of the netherworld in the Sumerian sources (2003), Bethesda, MD: CDL Press; Lewes, L., The Women of Shakespeare (1895), London: Hodder Brothers; Locke, F.W., Dante and T.

The study included of 100 blood sample of patients with acne (39 males) and (61 females) and their age between 10-35 years. The aim of the study was to assess the level of DHEA-S hormone in acne vulgaris patients in the serum using a technique enzyme-linked immunosorbent Assay (ELISA).The study included the test of the susceptibility of phagocytic cells on phagocytosis (coefficient of phagocytosis) and measurement of hematological parameters (Red blood cell count, hemoglobin ratio, total and differential white blood cells count). The results showed the presence elevate in the level of DHEA-S for 21 sample out of 70 patients with acne. Results showed that there was no association between disease incidence and DHEA-S when compared with the healthy control in the population of Thi-Qar province.Increase coefficient phagocytosis was significant (P≤ 0.05) in all patients with acne compared with a group of control. As for the blood parameters, the results of the present study showed no significant differences (P≤0.05) in the rates of red blood cells and hemoglobin in all acne patients compared to the control group. It also showed increased rate of counting the total of WBCs and differential cell neutrophils and lymphocytes (P≤0.004), (P≤0.004),(P≤0.025), respectively in acne patients compared to healthy controls group. © 2020, Indian Journal of Forensic Medicine and Toxicology.

The existence, uniqueness and boundedness of the solution are discussed. All the feasible equilibrium points are determined. The stability analysis of them are investigated. By employing the time delay as the bifurcation parameter, we observed the existence of Hopf bifurcation at the posi-tive equilibrium. The stability and direction of the Hopf bifurcation are determined by utilizing the normal form method and the center mani-fold reduction. Numerical simulations are given to support the analytic results. © 2020 Academic Center for Education, Culture and Research TMU.Delayed Prey-Predator System; Hopf Bifurcation; Refuge; Stability; Stage-StructureFreedman, H.I., Waltman, P., Persistence in models of three interacting predator prey populations (1984) Math.

The conceptual analysis of the performance of heat transfer was executed under an unchanged wall temperature case. A significant feature of such approach is permitting a commonplace distribution of neighboring mid-temperature as well as the fluid's simpleton velocity distribution. All of these mechanisms had been tested by a relativity with the prevalent results. The Brinkman number's effects and rheological materials on the home Nusselt number's distribution were studied. It has been shown that the notion associated with the Nusselt number stubbornly relies upon the power law based index value. That Nusselt number strikingly gets reduced in the 0 < n < 0.1 range. Nonetheless, for n > 0.5, again, for n > 1, Nusselt number values are approaching an invariable value. © 2020 Zibeline International Publishing Sdn. Bhd..

SB was subjected to two types of alkaline pretreatment to assess their effect on SB characteristic, inhibitor formation, and enzymatic hydrolysis sugar yield. Dilute sodium hydroxide (DSH) and dilute sodium bicarbonate (DSB) were used for SB pretreatment. The pretreatment was carried out in a conventional heating environment (120ºC) for 10 min before the enzymatic hydrolysis step. The results showed that the treated SB by DSB resulted in higher removal of lignin (28%) compared to DSH (25%). The TGA, XRD, and SEM analysis results revealed that both types of pretreatment have slight differences. The crystallinity index (CI) for DSH and DSB was 43.2% and 41.2%, respectively. Meanwhile, HPLC results illustrated that the only inhibitor present in the pretreatment liquor is acetic acid at 0.25 mg/ml for DBS pretreatment and 0.063 mg/ml for DSH pretreatment. 229 ± 12 mg/g of total reducing sugar was found using DSH pretreatment, which is slightly higher than that one was obtained by DSB pretreatment (219 ± 16 mg/g) after enzymatic hydrolysis step. A similar observation was found on glucose and xylose yield. These results make us interfere that the diluted level of sodium bicarbonate can lead to approximately similar results of sodium hydroxide, which offer a cheap route of the pretreatment process. © 2020, © 2020 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.Alkali pretreatment; hydrolysis; sago palm; sodium bicarbonate; sodium hydroxideCarbonates; Crystallinity; Sodium bicarbonate; Sodium hydroxide; Starch; Alkaline pretreatment; Conventional heating; Crystallinity index; Pretreatment methods; Pretreatment process; Starch industry; Total reducing sugars; Xylose yields; Enzymatic hydrolysisUniversiti Putra MalaysiaThe authors appreciate the financial support from Universiti Putra Malaysia under the UPM-IPS research grant.Adney, B., Baker, J., Measurement of cellulase activities (1996) Laboratory analytical procedure, , 6(465), National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), Golden, Colarado, and,.

(CL) have been widely used in herbal medicines worldwide. It has been shown to possess prophylactic effects against oxidative stress. However, there is a paucity of information regarding the protective role of CL against oxidative stress in the absence of toxic agents. The aim of the study was to elucidate the antioxidative stress pharmacodynamics of CL. Eighteen 12-week-old Sprague-Dawley rats weighing about 300 ± 25 gm were divided equally into six groups. Four of the groups were supplemented with CL at 100 mg/kg b.w./day orally (P.O.) and labeled as 1st, 3rd, 5th, and 6th day groups. The PCx (positive control) group was given distilled water orally, and the NCx (negative control) group rats were provided with food and water ad libitum. Blood samples were collected, and rats were sacrificed on days 1, 3, 5, and 6 (2 h) posttreatment. The blood was used for oxidative stress enzyme analysis (SOD, GSH-Px, and MDA) and liver (ALT) and kidney (creatinine) function assay, and the liver was dissected for histology. The results revealed that CL exhibited an antioxidative stress effect in the liver and kidneys as indicated by the low levels of ALT and creatinine. In response to antioxidant enzymes, especially that of the 3rd-day treatment group, an increase in SOD and GSH-Px indirectly caused an alleviation of oxidative stress, leading to a much lower level of MDA. It was concluded that treatment with CL at 100 mg/kg b.w./per day for three consecutive days demonstrated the highest efficacy in abating oxidative stress in rats. © 2020 Mohammed A.

Aim: Comparison of topical Lanoprost & Minoxidil versus topical Minoxidil only in treatment of localized alopecia areata. Methodology: Interventional-controlled single blinded study that was involving (95) alopecia areata patients. That extended from1st day of February 2019 to last week January 2020 In Al-Hussain teaching hospitals in Thi-Qar and Al-Muthana governorates., the patients crossly matched well and divided according to lines of treatment into two groups. ethical consent had been taken after full details explanation of research items and purpose. Results: Post interventional assessment of the response difference in terms significant statistical differences (p value=0.002, 0.0001) between the two groups. The SALT II when compared before and after treatment was decreasing in both groups but to a significantly better extent in group II Conclusions: The treatments with 5% minoxidil in a combination with 0.005% latanoprost or 5% minoxidil alone were found to be effective and a better result with minoxidil only. implemented combination in the managements of alopecia areata is of great benefit in reduction of size and duration of treatment. © Advanced Scientific Research.

A 718 bp region was selected from the D-loop area. Twenty-eight of local white ducks samples were used and designed accordingly the Forward primer 5'- GTTGCGGGTTATTTGGTTA -3 'and Reverse primer 5'- CCATATACGCCAACCGTCTC -3'. The results of PCR polymerization and electrolysis of the product demonstrated that the success of the amplification process and the particle size was 718bp. After analyzing the sequence of the nitrogen bases of the studied piece, observed a differences in seven individual haplotypes of nitrogen bases to the D-loop area. The value of haplotype was 0.667, and four of them were independent and 3 were shared with ducks from different countries. From the results, local Iraqi ducks were closer in terms of the tree of evolution and genetic distance between them was lower than in any other country, which maybe means that the origin of local ducks is Chinese ducks. The rate of molecular variation of AMOVA for the D-loop region between breeds was higher than that of breeds within breeds. The pieces obtained in this study for D-loop were recorded in the NCBI, EMBL and DDBJ genealogies and under independent accession numbers for our local LC480437, LC480438, LC480439, LC480440 and LC480441. © 2020 Plant Archives.

Also, these goods are high in quality and reliability, lowest in cost and also rapid in delivery and response. The production companies are working to develop their production lines so that they are more flexible to change and can produce multiple products on the same production line, with the possibility of development to cope with the changing needs of customers. The changes of the production line from the production of a product to another needs a setup time and this time may be greater than the production time, thus leading to delay in the delivery of demands, which affects the reputation of the company and leads to customer dissatisfaction. Therefore, setup time is considered to be an influential factor in the production process. The determining of product sequence that reduces setup time using traditional approaches needs a long time to take all the possibilities for the relay process, and then to choose the alternative that reduces setup time. This leads companies to use modern scientific and quantitative approaches of rational decision making, and not enough of the experience of the decision maker or the use of traditional approaches in the process of decision making. In this paper, we used Genetic algorithms (GA) in decision making, which is one of the modern quantitative approaches to find the global optimum solution. It has been used to determine the sequence of products and the least setup time for a given set of demands. The proposed approach was applied in the Ur Company/ wire winding factory. The results showed the efficiency of the proposed algorithm in decision making to determine the production sequence in this factory, where GA take into account the product which ended the previous demand, and which one will begin in the later demand. Therefore, will be making a strategic and comprehensive decision and not a local decision. © 2020 Primrose Hall Publishing Group.Decisions making; Genetic algorithm; Products sequences; Set-up timeAnil, S.K., Suresh, N., Operation management (2009) New age international Daryaganj, New Delhi, 2 (63), pp. 136-147; Charnprasitphon, A., (2007) Modelling and analysis of the batch production scheduling problem for perishable products with setup times, 6 (49), pp. 252-272. , PhD Thesis, School of Industrial and System Engineering, Georgia Institute of Technology; Cheng, T., Liu, Z., Yu, W., Scheduling jobs with release dates and deadlines on a batch processing machine (2001) IIE Transactions, 33 (72), pp. 163-183; Clark, A., Morabito, R., Toso, E., Production setup sequencing and lot-sizing at an animal nutrition plant through ATSP subtour elimination and patching (2010) Journal of Scheduling, 13 (41), pp. 161-185; Costa, A., Fichera, S., Cappadonna, F., A genetic algorithm for scheduling both job families and skilled workforce (2013) Int.

We have used the finite elements method to solve the Navier–Stokes equation, and an increase in temperature and velocity was found from the increased voltage. The increments of heat flux causes in increase of temperature with EDL effect. In general, we can note that two points are accurate, first, in the EDL region the velocity is formed, and then the maximum value of velocity reaches on outside the EDL with flat shape distributions for all selected cases. Second, the effects of viscosity and applied zeta potentials cause this velocity distribution of electroosmotic flow. The main objective of the simulation is to study the effect of electric magnetic in microchannel towards fluid flow profiles. The results shows that increasing voltage cause increase in velocity. © 2020 Zibeline International Publishing Sdn. Bhd..

Automatic analysis of PCG provides useful clinical information about heart operations for early detection and diagnosis of heart disorders. In this paper we design an algorithm to detect and classify the heart sound (PCG) signal into normal and abnormal sounds by using fuzzy inference system (FIS). The algorithm consisted of four stages, they are: preprocessing stage, segmentation stage, feature extraction stage and finally classification stage. In the preprocessing stage, PCG signals were first down sampled, and filtered by adaptive wavelet-based sub-level tracking. Next, the filtered PCG signal was segmented using envelop based segmentation using Shannon energy. Thereafter, zero crossing rate and root mean square features were extracted from the Shannon envelop and were used as inputs to FIS. Proposed algorithm reached 100% accuracy, and it was showed that proposed algorithm is effective for detection of abnormal heart operations. © 2020, Institute of Advanced Scientific Research, Inc..

Smart city, as one of the IoT applications, includes several sub-applications, such as intelligent transportation system (ITS), smart car parking and smart grid. Focusing on traffic flow management and car parking systems because of their correlation, this paper aims to provide a framework solution to both systems using online detection and prediction based on fog computing. Online event detection plays a vital role in traffic flow management, as circumstances, such as social events and congestion resulting from accidents and roadworks, affect traffic flow and parking availability. We developed an online prediction model using an incremental decision tree and distributed the prediction process on fog nodes at each intersection traffic light responsible for a connecting road. It effectively reduces the load on the communication network, as the data is processed, and the decision is made locally, with low storage requirements. The spatially correlated fog nodes can communicate if necessary to take action for an emergency. The experiments were conducted using the Melbourne city open data. © 2020, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.ITS; Prediction; Smart car parking; Traffic flowDecision trees; Digital storage; Fog; Forecasting; Garages (parking); Intelligent systems; Intelligent vehicle highway systems; Internet of things; Network architecture; Online systems; Open Data; Parallel architectures; Street traffic control; Traffic congestion; Intelligent transportation systems; Internet of Things (IOT); On-line detection; Online event detection; Prediction process; Smart car; Traffic flow; Traffic flow management; Fog computingAhangari, S., Chavis, C., Jeihani, M., Moghaddam, Z.R., Quantifying the impact of on-street parking information on congestion mitigation using a driving simulator (2018) Technical Report; Alajali, W., Wen, S., Zhou, W., On-street car parking prediction in smart city: A multi-source data analysis in sensor-cloud environment (2017) Spaccs 2017.

Task scheduling can be considered as one of major challenges of QoS which tries to distribute tasks to Virtual Machines (VMs) in an efficient manner. This paper offers a Hybrid Min-Min and Round Robin (RR) scheduling algorithm (HMMRR) of traditional algorithms for improving resource utilization and system performance through minimizing makespan (execution time) of all VMs and reducing average of response time (starvation) as well as waiting time of the system. The proposed algorithm has been compared with other existing algorithms such as RR, Min-Min and Max-Min where the experimental results show that the HMMRR algorithm outperforms others. © 2020 SERSC.Cloud computing; Makespan; Quality of service (QoS); Response time; Task scheduling; Waiting timeDevi, D.C., Uthariaraj, V.R., (2016) Load Balancing in Cloud Computing Environment Using Improved Weighted round Robin Algorithm for Nonpreemptive Dependent Tasks, 2016; Dhari, A., Arif, K.I., An Efficient Load Balancing Scheme for Cloud Computing (2017) Indian J.

The research used a questionnaire to collect its data. The research sample was chosen from employees who work in Iraqi industrial companies, including administrators, accountants, engineers and technicians. The research reached a number of conclusions, the most important of which is that the value analysis technique is a product design activity. It includes manufacturing products whose functional performance meets the expectations of customers at the lowest cost. Moreover, the value analysis technique helps to identify, analyse functions and exclude functions that do not add value in order to reduce cost and increase value without affecting quality. It does so through the use of creative thinking to help managers to distinguish between activities that add value and those that do not add value. © Primrose Hall Publishing Group.Competitive advantage; Cost management; Iraq; Product functions; Value added; Value analysis techniqueAtkinson, A.A., Kaplan, R.M., Suture, L., Young, S.M.S., (2007) Management Accounting, , 5th ed., Pearson Prentice Hall, USA; Barfield, J., Bern, C., Kinney, M., (2003) Cost Accounting: Traditions and Innovations, , 5th ed., South Western, Inc; Davis, M., Aquiline, N., Chase, R., (2003) Fundamentals of Operations Management, , 4th. ed., McGraw-Hill, Irwin; ElKelety, I.A., (2006) Towards a Conceptual Framework for Strategic Cost Management, , unpublished doctorate thesis, Chemnitz University; Evans, J.R., Dean, J., (2003) Total Quality Management Organization & Strategy, , 5th. ed., Thomson South-Western; Flamholts, E., Hua, W., Searching for Competitive Advantage in the Black Box (2003) European Management Journal, 12 (2); Garrison, R., Noreen, H., Eric, W., (2008) Managerial Accounting, , 11th. ed., McGraw-Hill, Singapore; Harrison, J.S., John, G.H., (1998) Foundation in Strategic Management, , South Western Collage Publishing, US A; Harry, D., (1986) Strategic Management, , Merrill Publishing Co., USA; Horngren, C., Rajan, G., Dater, S., (2012) Cost Management: A Managerial Emphasis, , 14th., ed., Prentice-Hall, Inc., New Jersey, USA; Jariri, F., Zegordi, H., (2008) The Quality Function Deployment, Value Engineering and Target Costing: An Integrated Framework in Cost Management, Research Programs, , WWW.SID.ir; Karimi, Z., Jafari, D., Quality Function Deployment and Value Engineering (2014) Research Journal of Environmental, 6 (4), pp. 233-240; Kotler, P., Armstrong, G., (1999) Marketing, , 8th. ed., Prentice-Hall, Inc; Pride, W., Ferrell, O., (2000) Marketing, , Houghton Co., USA; Rains, J., (2015) Function Analysis, , http://valuefoundation.org; (2007) Vision Statement, , http//www.value-eng.org; Stevenson, W., (2005) Operations Management, , McGraw-Hill, Irwin; Tazegu, A., Benchmarking Approaches: As Strategically Cost Management Tools (2014) Journal of Academic Research, 5 (14), pp. 84-91; (2014) West Virginia Department of Transportation Division of Highways, , Engineering Division; Wang, H., Li, X., The application of value engineering (2013) Journal of Chemical and Pharmaceutical Research, 6 (10), pp. 714-720Primrose Hall Publishing Group22011315EnglishInt.

So, in this research we will use computer's application and it's importantly in recognition and classification plants' leaves, because of fewness of plants' classification experts. The data base used includes (35) types of different special plants after preprocessing on these pictures, the primal processing includes two practical's: (picture's enhancement and verges determine for pictures). In addition, we extract a group of geometrical features of plants' leaves depending on outwardness surround for leaf. We extract (10) features Euclidian for each leaf contains (surround, distance, center, main diameter, second diameter, and Extreme points). We used traditional distance for measuring distance between any two points. Then, the leaf of plant is recognized using algorithm C4.5. © 2020, Institute of Advanced Scientific Research, Inc..

This led to thinking in an efficient way to remove these dyes, several methods have been used including adsorption, it is best if the material used in the adsorption process is inexpensive and readily available. Rice husk treated with succinic acid is an effective, readily available and easy to obtain substance that has been used to remove the crystal violet tincture. The study was conducted using a range of acidic function PH (2-10), and the extent of the change in weight of the adsorbent substance (0.25-2g), and changing the initial concentration within a range (5-30mg/l), and a range of time periods (30_240min). it was found that the highest value of adsorption of crystal violet tincture on the surface of rice husk treated with succinic acid was at pH 8,the adsorption dose (1g), with the initial dye concentration of (50 mg/L) and the contact time(240 min). The electrochemical behavior of the adsorption solution of crystal violet dye with rice husk treated with succinic acid as a surface was also verified using a cyclic voltammeter technique with a different survey speed, an increase in the oxidation and reduction stream was obtained, in addition to appearance of an oxidation peak and a decrease in the reduction. © 2020, Advanced Scientific Research.

The bifurcations of these dynamics is fully determined by the increasing the optical feedback strength OFBS. Our results show that small OFBS leads to a selection of QDLED dynamics. Increasing of the t leads to increase both in region of the double period and the chaos. Otherwise, bias dominates the course of photons. Adding the grating mirror as a special technique stabilize the oscillation of a QDLED. It is worth mentioning that we did not get a perfect behavior except using this technique. Delayed feedback and turn-on dynamics are studied. Results show that there is no change QDLED dynamics because of controlling the bias current on the behavior of photons and the effect of delay forces the system to enter the state of chaos while the turn-on dynamics of the QDLED structure show damping of the relaxation oscillations and the increase of phase shift with increasing both of OFBS and delay time. Dependence the outset of chaos on the linewidth enhancement factor is examined. © 2020 L&H Scientific Publishing, LLC.Chaos; Control; Dimensionless model; Grating mirror; Optical feedback; QDLEDAl Naimee, K., Al Husseini, H., Abdalah, S.F., Al Khursan, A., Khedir, A.H., Meucci, R., Arecchi, F.T., Mixed mode oscillations and chaotic spiking in Quantum Dot Light Emitting Diodes (2015) Proceedings of the IEEE, 7, p. 033; Al Husseini, H., Al Naimee, K., Abdalah, S.F., Al Khursan, A., Khedir, A.H., Meucci, R., Arecchi, F.T., Modulation Response, Mixed mode oscillations and chaotic spiking in Quantum Dot Light Emitting Diodes, Elsevier, Chaos, Solitons & Fractals (2015) Nonlinear Science, and Nonequilibrium and Complex Phenomena, 78, pp. 229-237; Al Naimee, K., Al Husseini, H., Abdalah, S.F., Al Khursan, A., Khedir, A.H., Meucci, R., Arecchi, F.T., Complex dynamics in Quantum Dot Light Emitting Diodes (2015) Eur.

Processes must be carefully managed in order to promote the formation of favourable high-integrity 'builds'. In this study, for the first time, a satelliting process is used to prepare a WCM-Co (12 wt.% Co) composite. Melting trials were undertaken to evaluate the consolidation behaviour of single tracks within a single layer. Tracks with continuous and relatively uniform surface morphology were obtained. These features are essential for high-quality AM builds in order to encourage good bonding between subsequent tracks within a layer which may reduce porosity within a 3D deposition. This study elucidates the formation of track irregularities, melting modes, crack sensitivity, and balling as a function of laser scanning speed and provides guidelines for future production of WCM-Co by laser powder-bed fusion. 2019 by the authors. © 2019 by the authors.Laser-powder bed fusion (L-PBF); Melt mode; Satelliting; Single tracks; WCM-CoCutting; Morphology; Surface morphology; 3d depositions; Crack sensitivity; Laser powders; Laser scanning speed; Satelliting; Single-tracks; Track irregularity; WC-Co composite; MeltingMinistry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, MHESRAcknowledgments: The authors would like to thank the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research in Iraq for financial support of Al-Thamir’s studentship.

High current injection gives high carrier temperature and a punch in the curve appears at low current due to the ground state carrier contribution. Increasing carrier-heating time increased carrier temperature. It is shown the slow relaxation for both the wetting layer to QD and the interdot relaxations are given high carrier temperature. Pulses with wide full width at half-maximum give high carrier temperature since its recovery time is increased. Free carrier absorption gives a main contribution to the heat in the QD structure. © 2020 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.quantum dot; reservoir carrier temperature; semiconductor optical amplifierGround state; III-V semiconductors; Indium arsenide; Nanocrystals; Narrow band gap semiconductors; Optical switches; Semiconductor optical amplifiers; Carrier contribution; Carrier heating; Carrier temperature; Double excited state; Free carrier absorption; InAs quantum dots; Quantum dot semiconductor optical amplifier; Slow relaxations; Semiconductor quantum dotsMajer, N., Lüdge, K., Gomis-Bresco, J., Dommers-Völkel, S., Woggon, U., Schöll, E., Impact of carrier-carrier scattering and carrier heating on pulse train dynamics of quantum dot semiconductor optical amplifiers (2011) Appl Phys Lett, 99 (13), pp. 2011-2014; Flayyih, A.H., Al-Khursan, A.H., Four-wave mixing in quantum dot semiconductor optical amplifiers (2013) Appl Opt, 52 (14). , 3156-3165; Jauho, A.P., Mørk, J., Olesen, H., Tromborg, B., Nonlinear gain suppression in semiconductor lasers due to carrier heating (1991) IEEE Photon Technol Lett, 3 (7), pp. 606-609; Ahmed, M., El-Lafi, A., Analysis of small-signal intensity modulation of semiconductor lasers taking account of gain suppression (2008) Pramana—J Phys, 71 (1), pp. 99-115; Zajnulina, M., Lingnau, B., Ludge, K., Four-wave mixing in quantum-dot semiconductor optical amplifiers: a detailed analysis of the nonlinear effects (2017) IEEE J Sel Top Quantum Electron, 23 (6). , 1-12; Wang, J., Schweizer, H.C., A quantitative comparison of the classical rate-equation model with the carrier heating model on dynamics of the quantum-well laser: the role of carrier energy relaxation, electron-hole interaction, and auger effect (1997) IEEE J Quantum Electron, 33 (8), pp. 1350-1359; Chin-Yi Tasi, C.Y.T., Lo, Y.-H., Spencer, R.M., Effects of hot phonons on carrier heating in quantum-well laser (1995) IEEE Photon Lett, 7 (9), pp. 950-952; Uskov, A.V., Meuer, C., Schmeckebier, H., Bimberg, D., Auger capture induced carrier heating in quantum dot lasers and amplifiers (2011) Appl Phys Express, 4 (2), pp. 2-5; Fehr, J.N., Dupertuis, M.-A., Hessler, T.P., Hot phonons and auger related carrier heating in semiconductor optical amplifiers (2002) IEEE J Quantum Electron, 38 (6), pp. 674-681; Beattie, N.S., See, P., Zoppi, G., Quantum engineering of InAs/GaAs quantum dot based intermediate band solar cells (2017) ACS Photon, 4 (11), pp. 2745-2750; Berg, T.W., Bischoff, S., Magnusdottir, I., Mørk, J., Ultrafast gain recovery and modulation limitations in self-assembled quantum-dot devices (2001) IEEE Photon Technol Lett, 13 (6), pp. 541-543; Uskov, A., Mork, J., Mark, J., Wave mixing in semiconductor laser amplifiers due to carrier heating and spectral-hole burning (1994) IEEE J Quantum Electron, 30 (8), pp. 1769-1781; Berg, T.W., Mørk, J., Hvam, J.M., Gain dynamics and saturation in semiconductor quantum dot amplifiers (2004) New J Phys, 6, pp. 1-23; Kim, J., Meuer, C., Bimberg, D., Eisenstein, G., Effect of inhomogeneous broadening on gain and phase recovery of quantum-dot semiconductor optical amplifiers (2010) IEEE J Quantum Electron, 46 (11), pp. 1670-1680; Taleb, H., Abedi, K., Homogeneous and inhomogeneous broadening effects on static and dynamic responses of quantum-dot semiconductor optical amplifiers (2012) Front Optoelectron, 5 (4), pp. 445-456; Nielsen, D., Chuang, S.L., Four-wave mixing and wavelength conversion in quantum dots (2010) Phys Rev B—Condens Matter Mater Phys, 81 (3), pp. 1-11; Kim, J., Chuang, S.L., Theoretical and experimental study of optical gain, refractive index change, and linewidth enhancement factor of p-doped quantum-dot lasers (2006) IEEE J Quantum Electron, 42 (9), pp. 942-952; Kim, J., Laemmlin, M., Meuer, C., Bimberg, D., Eisenstein, G., Static gain saturation model of quantum-dot semiconductor optical amplifiers (2008) IEEE J Quantum Electron, 44 (7), pp. 658-666; Xia, M., Ghafouri-Shiraz, H., Theoretical analysis of carrier heating effect in semiconductor optical amplifiers (2015) Opt Quantum Electron, 47 (7), pp. 2141-2153; Flayyih, A.H., Al-Khursan, A.H., Theory of pulse propagation and four-wave mixing in a quantum dot semiconductor optical amplifier (2014) Curr Appl Phys, 14 (7). , 946-953; Flayyih, A.H., Al-Khursan, A.H., Theory of four-wave mixing in quantum dot semiconductor optical amplifiers (2013) J Phys D Appl Phys, 46 (44). , 445102Flayyih, A.H.; Applied Geology Department, Iraq; email: phy.lab2013@gmail.comJohn Wiley and Sons Inc.08952477MOTLEEnglishMicrowave Opt Technol LettArticleArticle in PressScopus2-s2.0-85078655008

This research focuses on articles related to the keywords 'biometrics', 'finger veins' and 'verification' and their variations in three major databases, namely, Web of Science, ScienceDirect and IEEE Xplore. The final set of collected articles related to FV biometric authentication systems is divided into software- and hardware-based systems. In the first category, software development attempts are described. The experiment results, frameworks, algorithms and methods that perform satisfactorily are presented. Moreover, the experiences obtained from conducting these studies are discussed. In the second category, hardware development attempts are described. The final articles are discussed from three aspects, namely, (1) number of publications, (2) problem type, proposed solutions, best results and evaluation methods in the included studies and (3) available databases containing different scientific work collected from volunteers, such as staff and students. The basic characteristics of this emerging field are identified from the following aspects: motivations of using FV biometric technology in authentication systems, open challenges that impede the technology's utility, authors' recommendations and future research prospects. A new solution is proposed to address several issues, such as leakage of biometrics that leads to serious risks due to the use of stolen FV templates and various spoofing and brute-force attacks in decentralised network architectures in medical systems, including access points and various database nodes without a central point. This work contributes to literature by providing a detailed review of feasible alternatives and research gaps, thereby enabling researchers and developers to develop FV biometric authentication medical systems further. Insights into the importance of such a technology and its integration into different medical applications and fields are also provided. © 2013 IEEE.authentication; Biometrics; blockchain technology; decentralised network architecture; finger veins; verificationAuthentication; Biometrics; Database systems; Medical applications; Software design; Taxonomies; Verification; Authentication systems; Basic characteristics; Biometric authentication; Biometric authentication system; Decentralised; Feasible alternatives; Finger vein; Software and hardwares; Network architecture2019-0125-109-01; Universiti Pendidikan Sultan IdrisThis work was supported by the Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris, Malaysia, under UPSI Rising Star Grant 2019, under Grant 2019-0125-109-01.Asaari, M.S.M., Suandi, S.A., Rosdi, B.A., Fusion of band limited phase only correlation and width centroid contour distance for finger based biometrics (2014) Expert Syst.

Although, the acceptance of herbal medicines is growing nowadays still there is an absence of knowledge about their toxicological properties and the right use being a hepatotoxic.This paper presents method to detect and diagnoses liver lesions in four types: necrotic cells, fatty degenerative cells, hepatocellular hypertrophic cells and congested cells using image processing techniques. The method is proposed to perform two tasks the first is conclude whether the liver image is normal or abnormal the second if abnormal state is detected then diagnosis lesions type must performs. The method progresses in many steps are preprocessing, features extraction, classification and lesion diagnosing. Grey level co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) technique is utilize to concentrate features to distinguish between normal and abnormal case using neural network classifier if abnormal state is detected the method feedback with colour image to analyse cells shape and image intensity colour to determine which type of diseases founded in image based on statistical and morphological features of cells. The method tested on 107 images it is got on the accuracy 100% in classification and 95% in diagnosing. Copyright © 2020 Institute of Advanced Engineering and Science.

It applied wavelet-Fourier analysis (WFA) to extract the statistical characteristics from an anaesthetic electroencephalogram (EEG) signal and to design a new DoA index. In this proposed method, firstly, the wavelet transform was applied to a denoised EEG signal, and a fast Fourier transform was then applied to the wavelet detail coefficient D3. Ten statistical features were extracted and analysed, and from these, five features were selected for designing a new index for the DoA assessment. Finally, a new DoA (WFADoA) was developed and compared with the most popular bispectral index (BIS) monitor. The results from the testing set showed that there were very high correlations between the WFADoA and the BIS index during the awake, light and deep anaesthetic stages. In the case of poor signal quality, the BIS index and the WFADoA were also tested, and the obtained results demonstrated that the WFADoA could indicate the DoA values, while the BIS failed to show valid outputs for those situations. © The Institution of Engineering and Technology 2019.Anesthesiology; Anesthetics; Electroencephalography; Fast Fourier transforms; Fourier analysis; Assessment technique; Depth of anaesthesia; Detail coefficients; Electroencephalogram signals; Hybrid transforms; Robust approaches; Statistical characteristics; Statistical features; Wavelet transformsArslan, A., Sen, B., Çelebi, F.V., A comparison of different classification algorithms for determining the depth of anesthesia level on a new set of attributes (2015) 2015 Int.

Due to their ability to fill even in extremely small voids and their pozzolanic reactivity, silica nanoparticles were found to effectively modify concrete microstructure into refined denser system. They considerably improve the cement-aggregate Interfacial transitional zone by filling the voids, consuming CH crystalline particle and producing more CSH gel. These modifications are presented as SEM images, XRD and thermogravimetric TG graphs as reported by the researchers. Through the microstructure improvement, NS was found to enhance most of concrete mechanical and durability properties. The effects of incorporating NS on concrete compressive, flexural and tensile strengths, water permeability, sulfate resistance and resistance to chloride permeability were reviewed and discussed. Effect of NS on fresh concrete workability and setting time were also studied. © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2020.Concrete microstructure; Durability; Fly ash; Nano technology; Nano-silicaCements; Chlorine compounds; Durability; Fly ash; Microstructure; Nanocrystalline materials; Silica; Silica nanoparticles; Sulfur compounds; Tensile strength; Chloride permeability; Concrete properties; Crystalline particles; Mechanical and durability properties; Nano Silica; Pozzolanic reactivity; Thermo-gravimetric; Water permeability; ConcretesGarcía, N.M., Zapata, L.E., Suárez, O.M., Cabrera-Ríos, M., Effect of fly ash and nanosilica on compressive strength of concrete at early age (2015) Adv Appl Ceram, 114 (2), pp. 99-106; Li, W., Huang, Z., Cao, F., Sun, Z., Shah, S.P., Effects of nano-silica and nano-limestone on flowability and mechanical properties of ultra-high-performance concrete matrix (2015) Constr Build Mater, 95, pp. 366-374; Singh, V., Bishnoi, M., Partial replacement of cement with nanosilica to micro structural investigation for strength properties of cement mortar (2016) Int J Tech Res, 5 (1), pp. 207-216; Gupta, S., Application of silica fume and nanosilica in cement and concrete—a review (2013) J Today’s Ideas Tomorrow’s Technol, 1 (2), pp. 85-98; Jittabut, P., Effect of nanosilica on mechanical and thermal properties of cement composites for thermal energy storage materials (2015) Energy Procedia, 79, pp. 10-17; Reches, Y., Nanoparticles as concrete additives: Review and perspectives (2018) Constr Build Mater, 175, pp. 483-495; Reches, Y., Thomson, K., Helbing, M., Kosson, D.S., Sanchez, F., Agglomeration and reactivity of nanoparticles of SiO2, TiO2, Al2O3, Fe2O3 and clays in cement pastes and effects on compressive strength and thermal durability (2018) Constr Build Mater, 167, pp. 860-873; Quercia, G., Brouwers, H.J.H., Application of nano-silica (NS) in concrete mixtures (2010) Proceedings: 8Th Fib Phd Symposium, pp. 431-436. , Kgs.

There are many ways in which the digital elevation model can be obtained, such as the Field Survey and the use of Global Positioning System data, topographic maps and other methods. In this research, a Digital Elevation Model (DEM) has been built dependent on three methods (positioning system—ground survey—topographic maps) in addition to the use of GIS technology to produce high-resolution 3D maps (2 mm) was chosen for application to the city of Nasiriyah, the center of Dhi Qar governorate in the southern Iraq to show the Hydrological hazards on the studied area and the methods of protecting it. It was found that there are many hydrological hazards to the city especially in the winter season such as the erosion of the soil by rain which reached 12.977 tons/ha and the water immersion whose ratio reached to 0.34 cm in some areas. In addition, the study showed that the area is exposed to the danger of flooding in percentages ranging from 0 to 90%, covering 50–60% of the risk of most parts of the study area.

The model of surface dimensions is constructed on the basis of the calculated values of the processing surface radii in order to estimate the errors of a diametrical size and shape error and location of the surfaces with a simultaneous evaluation of circular grinding cycle productivity. The model of metal removal for the circular external grinding cycle, described in this article, can be used not only for prediction of the processing accuracy for a given processing cycle, but also for designing a speed-optimal cycle, i.e., the model is a basis for development of an optimal cycle creation methodology. © 2020, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.Error;

As a result, CNC machines are used inefficiently; full automation of the preparation of control programs for CNC machines becomes impossible without using high-performance optimum grinding cycles ensuring stable processing accuracy; it is also impossible to design manufacturing cyber-physical systems in accordance with the concept of “Industry 4.0.” The article describes the synthesis of the digital twin technology and dynamic programming method for designing the optimal grinding cycle for resistance to variable technological factors, which makes it possible to: prevent the rejection of circular grinding; determine the causes of rejection; improve reliability and stability of the grinding cycle to the cumulative effect of variable factors; predict the fluctuation of accuracy and roughness parameters, hardness of the machined surface when processing a batch of parts. The practical result of the synthesis of the digital twin technology and dynamic programming method is an increase in the level of designing automation of control programs for CNC machines, ensuring the calculation of optimal values of radial feed at all cycle stages, the optimal distribution of the allowance removal over the cycle stages, which ensures the minimum main grinding cycle time and reduction in risks to meet the specified requirements on the quality of the machined surface of the part. © 2020, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.Cycle; Digital twin; Dynamic programming method; Grinding(1990) Engineering Industry Standards of Time and the Cutting Modes for Rationing of the Works Carried out on the Universal and Multi-Purpose Machines with Numerical Program Control.

An example application is to aid the regeneration process of peripheral nerve injuries. Herein, we present a promising approach for three-dimensional (3D) micropatterning of nerve cells in tissue scaffolds for peripheral nerve repair. In particular, we demonstrate the 3D micropatterning of PC12 cells in a gelatin-hydroxyphenylpropionic acid (Gtn-HPA) hydrogel using ultrasound standing waves (USWs). PC12 cells were first aligned in 3D along nodal planes by the USWs in Gtn-HPA hydrogel precursor solution. The precursor was then crosslinked using horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and diluted hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), thus immobilising the aligned cells within 90-120 s. This micropatterning process is cost effective and can be replicated easily without the need for complex and expensive specialised equipment. USW-aligned PC12 cells showed no adverse effect in terms of viability or ability to proliferate. To our best knowledge, this is the first report on the effect of USW alignment on neural cell differentiation. Differentiated and USW-aligned PC12 cells showed directional uniformity after 20 d, making this technique a promising alternative approach to guide the nerve regeneration process. © 2019 IOP Publishing Ltd.cell alignment; hydrogel; micropatterning; nerve differentiation; standing waves; tissue scaffoldCells; Cost effectiveness; Cytology; Elastic waves; Hydrogels; Neurons; Tissue; Ultrasonic applications; Cell alignment; Micro patterning; Peripheral nerve repair; Scaffold based tissue engineering; Standing wave; Tissue scaffolds; Ultrasonic standing waves; Ultrasound standing waves; Scaffolds (biology); animal; cell proliferation; chemistry; cytology; devices; hydrogel; nerve cell; PC12 cell line; procedures; radiation response; rat; tissue engineering; tissue scaffold; ultrasound; Animals; Cell Proliferation; Hydrogels; Neurons; PC12 Cells; Rats; Tissue Engineering; Tissue Scaffolds; UltrasonicsHydrogelsVinci, M., Gowan, S., Boxall, F., Patterson, L., Zimmermann, M., Court, W., Lomas, C., Eccles, S.A., (2012) BMC Biol., 10, p. 29; Ravi, M., Paramesh, V., Kaviya, S.R., Anuradha, E., Solomon, F.D., (2015) J.

Nitrogen fixation by life organism Rhizobium spp. is an important to increase growth and yield. The study aimed to determine the distribution and activity of bacteria symbiotic in legume growing at Thi-Qar province-southern Iraq. Field survey studied at six locations grew with legumes to know bacteria types. Two field experiments were studied, so the first was the effect of bacteria concentration on cowpeas growth. Three bacterial concentrations were studied. The second was bacteria concentration and nitrogen fertilizer effectiveness on alfalfa dry and fresh weight yield including 3 levels from both factors. Plant vegetative qualities and nodules number affected significantly by the bacterial concentrations. The alfalfa dry and fresh yields significantly were affected by bacterial concentration and nitrogen. The inoculation of seed before planting is important to increase legume growth and yield. The biological Nitrogen fixation is the most important procedure in agriculture to reduce using of amount Nitrogen fertilizers to crop because of amounts of Nitrogen fertilizers is losing by many processes, like (soil erosion, ammonia volatilization, Denitrification, leaching NO3, and immobilization process). Increasing density of inoculation is causing increasing by nitrogen fixation, height of plants number of leaves, dry matter, fresh material, productivity of legumes, dry matter and fresh increasing a significantly p α 0.05 to all plants in the study. The number of nodules raised with increasing density of inoculation a significantly (p α 0.05). The bacteria that were isolated from broad been roots was R. legumninosarum. In addition, R. melioti was isolated from the alfalfa roots and the other bacteria such as R. trifolli and Brady R. sp. was isolated from clover (trefoil) and cowpeas crops respectively. © 2019 SERSC.Bacteria nodules; Inoculation; Nitrogen fixation; RhizobiumAbdul Redda, H.A., (1984) Improvement Efficiency Rhizobia Strain to Some of Legumes, , M.

Developing an efficient method for scoring electroencephalogram (EEG) sleep stages is expected to help medical specialists in the early diagnosis of sleep disorders. Method: In this paper, a novel technique is proposed for classifying sleep stages EEG signals using correlation graphs. First, each 30 s EEG segment is divided into a set of sub-segments. The dimensionality of each sub-segment is reduced by using a statistical model. Second, each EEG segment is transferred into a graph considering each sub-segment as a node in a graph, and a link between each pair of nodes is calculated based on their correlation coefficient. Graph's modularity is used as input features into an ensemble classifier. Results: Different community detection algorithm based correlation graph are investigated to discern the most effective features to reveal the differences between EEG sleep stages. A combination of various classification techniques: a least square vector machine (LS-SVM), k-means, Naïve Bayes, Fuzzy C-means, k-nearest, and logistic regression are tested using multi criteria decision making (MCDM) to design an ensemble classifier. Based on the results of the MCDM, the best four: LS-SVM, Naïve Bayes, logistic regression and k-nearest are integrated, to finally utilise as an ensemble classifier to categorise the graph's characteristics. The results obtained from the ensemble classifier are compared with those from the individual classifiers. The performance of the proposed method is compared with state of the art of sleep stages classification. The experimental results showed that the EEG sleep classification based on correlation graphs are able to achieve better recognition results than the existing state of the art techniques. © 2019 Elsevier LtdCommunity detection;

Herein, we demonstrate a novel strip-style electrochemical sensor using reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and poly(ethylene dioxythiophene)/poly(styrene sulfonic acid) (PEDOT/PSS) nanocomposite films. The fabricated rGO-PEDOT/PSS sensor with and without nafion has shown an effective electrochemical response for both selectivity and sensitivity of the serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) neurotransmitter. The developed high-performance hybrid graphene/conducting polymer strip sensors are likely to find applications as chip electrochemical sensor devices for patients diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. © 2019 American Chemical Society.Australian Research Council, ARC: DE130100517The authors acknowledge funding from the Australian Research Council under Discovery Early Career Researcher award (J.

Specific types of antibiotics have been associated with side effect like diarrhea, this called (collateral damage), which may occur due to drug-resistant organisms and the unwanted development of colonization or infection with multidrug-resistant organisms. This damage is mostly related to levofloxacin and Ciprofloxacin. The aim of the current study was to compare the incidence of collateral damage between two quinolone antibiotic derivatives (ciprofloxacin and levofloxacin) and to evaluate the activity of lactobacillus to reduce the collateral damage. This study was carried out on 100 patients. Administration of ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin each alone or in combination with lactobacillus; the character of diarrhea and the grade of diarrhea was studied before and after 10 days of administration each dosing protocol. The results for this study, there are a significant increase in the incidence of diarrhea for all groups when comparison between before and after treatment diarrhea was made; a number of patients with diarrhea in group 1 after finish the treatment was not significantly higher when compared with group 2 (P>0.05); meanwhile, number of patients with diarrhea in group 4 after finish the treatment was significantly lower when compared with group 3 (P<0.05). it can concluded that , The use of ciprofloxacin and levofloxacin associated with incidence of collateral damage represented as diarrhea and levofloxacin is the least risk of this damage, and using of lactobacillus with levofloxacin was better results than the other three groups. © 2019 University of Baghdad - College of Pharmacy.

It is effective for acute migraine attacks, but has a short half life (about 2 hours) and low oral bioavailability (15%). The purpose of this study was to develop and optimize nasal mucoadhesive in-situ gel(IG) of ST to enhance nasal residence time for migraine management. Cold method was used to prepare different formulas of ST nasal IG, using thermosensitive polymers (poloxamer 407 alone or with poloxamer 188) with a mucoadhesive polymer hyaluronic acid (HA) which were examined for gelation temperature and gelation time, pH, drug content, gel strength, spreadability, mucoadhesive force determination, viscosity, in-vitro drug release, and the selected formula was subjected to fourier transform infrared (FTIR) compatibility studies, and to ex-vivo permeation study, histological evaluation of the sheep mucosal tissue after ST nasal gel application for 6 hours.The results showed that the formula IG7 prepared from poloxamer 407(19%), poloxamer188 (4%) and HA (0.5%) had an optimum gelation temperature (32.66±1.52°C), gel strength (43.66± 1.52 sec), mucoadhesive force (8067.93± 746.45dyne\cm2), in-vitro drug release (95.98%) over 6h, ex-vivo permeation study (89.6%) during the 6 h. study with no histological or pathological change in the nasal sheep tissue and no interaction between drug and other additives in IG7. Formulation of ST as a nasal insitu gel to avoid first pass metabolism and ease of administration coupled with less frequent and sustained drug release, will enhance patient compliance. © 2019 University of Baghdad - College of Pharmacy.

The propagation properties for the proposed O-PCF were studied numerically by utilizing full-vector finite element method (FV-FEM) using COMSOL Multiphysics version 5.1. The confinement loss, the relative sensitivity, and the nonlinearity coefficient can be controlled by changing the factors related with the geometry such as the cladding in a range of wavelength, air hole diameter, and the core pitch. The proposed O-PCF is realized with three rings from the air hole in the cladding and two circular rings in the core region. Numerical simulation of the proposed structure is achieving the highest sensitivity by increasing the diameter of the air hole the cladding, while the pitch remains constant. At the same time, the confinement losses have distinguishable decrease with an increase in diameter as well as an increase in the number of rings within the cladding layer. In addition, the effective area and the nonlinear coefficient each of them is affected with every hole of the diameter and with the type of the chemical material used. The proposed model shows that the fiber is of a high efficiency not only in the sensing application, but also being distinguishable with the nonlinear optical application. © 2019 Author(s).Chemical sensor; confinement loss; nonlinearity coefficient.

Our goal is to explore the complex dynamics (i.e. the oscillation phenomenon) of this architecture mediated by this interaction. This model was theoretically and numerically investigated using distributed time delay. We considered the average delay as a bifurcation parameter and the nonlinear degradation rate as a control parameter. Sufficient conditions for local stability were gained by using the Routh-Hurwitz criterion in the case of a weak delay kernel. Then we proved that Hopf bifurcation happened and the direction of the periodic solution was determined using multiple time scale technique. Our results suggest that the interaction among several identical mRNA plays the main role in gene regulation. © The Author(s) 2018.

The samples were collected from of three stations during the autumn and winter season. Heavy metals (Cd, Cu, Pb, Fe and Zn) were detected using an Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer. The heavy metals concentrations in the water, plants and sediments were detected during the autumn and winter season. Ceratophyllum showed higher heavy metals concentration of Cd, Cu, Pb, Fe and Zn in station 3 than Phragmites during the autumn season. High amount of heavy metals (Fe, Cu and Zn) in sediment samples were also in station3 during winter season. However, Season and location play a significant role in the heavy metals content of water, plants and sediment. The Ceratophyllum had the highest heavy metals content while Phragmites had the lowest for both the seasons. © 2019 Ecological Society of India.

Etiology and pathogenesis of alopecia areata being not totally comprehended, is accepted to be multifactorial in ancestry. Recently, studies suggested an association between alopecia and types of viruses; therefore we concerned to investigate the association between CMV infection and alopecia areata. This study included of 100 individuals (50 alopecia patients and 50 healthy). Mean age of study groups were 20.90 ± 11.07 and 22.64±12.29 years of cases and control group respectively. Mean of age onset of patients were 20.83 ± 10.0. Out of 50 patients 52% were male, the rest were female. However 1:1 of control group were male: female. 40% of patients had a positive family history for this disease. Alopecia areata affected on scalp in 78% of cases. All patients had a high concentration of CMV IgM. With treatment of oral ganciclovire drug, a decrease of anti-CMV IgM levels and an increase of CMV IgG levels were observed. © 2019 Annals of Tropical Medicine & Public Health.Alopecia areata; Iraq; Viral infectionganciclovir; immunoglobulin M; adolescent; adult; alopecia areata; Article; child; clinical article; controlled study; cytomegalovirus infection; family history; female; human; Iraq; male; preschool child; scalp; school child; young adultganciclovir, 82410-32-0; immunoglobulin M, 9007-85-6Odom Richard, B., James, D.I., Henry, W.D., Berger, J.B., Timothy, G., Clinical diagnosis by laboratory methods (2006) Andrews' Diseases of the Skin: Clinical Dermatology, , In: Elston, Dirk M.

It has now become the golden procedure of management for gallstones. Even though, there are many attempts to explore the influence of perforation of gallbladder on the clinical outcomes, but the conflicting results are still. Because of increasing in the attempts at minimally invasive surgery, during lap chole; accidental gallbladder perforation is on rise. Aims: The researcher tries to investigate criteria and the clinical outcomes and the risk factors in patients who develop gallbladder perforation during Lap Chole. Methods: An (80) patients had been undergo Lapachol. by a cross sectional comparative analytical study in prospectivepattern had been carried out in Al-Hussain teaching hospital-Thi-Qar-Iraq. The data collection phase extended over a period of 7 months from 2nd of January 2018 to 1st of August 2018. Each participant subjected to a questionnaire that includes: personal socio-demography, and fallowed up for at least one week to assess the outcome. The data analyzed by using SPSS (version 23). p value less than 0.05 was considered as statistically significant. Results: Eighty (80) patients sustained a gallbladder perforation, the bulk of the sampled cases taken was females were mostly at age of 40-60 years, and Al-Nasiriya residency, and these are not the total number of cases of accidental gallbladder perforation during laparoscopic cholecystectomy within 7 months of the study, only two cases ended with sub-hepatic collection, there was statistical association between type of perforation and some determinants such age and gender (p value=0.001), while there was no sig. Statistical association between complication and studied variables (P value >0.05). Conclusion: The most age of occurrence of the complication is the peak age of gall stone development, and because the large number of femalepatients in our study, so female consider the main affected gender for both gall bladder diseases and perforation during lap chole. Accidental gallbladder perforation can be caused mainly by technical errors. © Annals of Tropical Medicine & Public Health S386.Duodenum; Gall bladder perforation; Laparoscopic cholecystectomy; Laparotomiesadult; Article; clinical outcome; comparative study; cross-sectional study; demography; female; follow up; gallbladder perforation; gallstone; human; Iraq; laparoscopic cholecystectomy; major clinical study; male; prospective study; questionnaire; risk factorPschyrembel, W., (2014) Klinisches Worterbuch, , Berlin: De Gruyter; Schmidt, R., Lang, F., Heeckmann, M., (2011) Physiologie des Menschen, , Springer; Derici, H., Kara, C., Bozdag, A.D., Nazli, O., Tansug, T., Akca, E., Diagnosis and treatment of gallbladder perforation (2006) World J.

Different tests are used for diagnosis and monitoring hyperglycemia, but these tests are not equal in the inadequacy. To detect the most accurate test for Diabetes mellitus diagnosis and monitor. Three tests were used: urine sugar test, serum test, and blood test check. These tests were applied on 230 patients in Thi-Qar province. Information was taken from these patients to detect the relation between Diabetes mellitus and some factors like sex and psychological stress. As a result, the most accurate tests for Diabetes mellitus diagnosis and monitor are serum test and blood test check. The highest percent of diabetes disease in Thi-Qar province is related to genetics. © 2019 Annals of Tropical Medicine & Public Health.Blood glucose test; Diabetes mellitus; Diagnostic test efficacy; Urine sugar testglucose; HLA antigen class 1; HLA antigen class 2; adolescent; adult; aged; Article; blood analysis; blood test check; child; clinical effectiveness; comparative study; controlled study; diabetes mellitus; diagnostic test; female; glucose blood level; glucose tolerance test; glucose urine level; human; Iraq; major clinical study; male; medical information; mental stress; middle aged; Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies; school child; urinalysis; young adultglucose, 50-99-7, 84778-64-3Diagnosis and classification of diabetes mellitus (2013) Diabetes Care, 36 (1), pp. 67-74; Shaw, J., Sicree, R., Zimmet, P., Global estimates of the prevalence of diabetes for 2010 and 2030 (2010) Diabetes Res Clin Pract., 87 (1), pp. 4-14; David, E., Randie, R., Monitoring glycemia short-term assessment (1997) Current Therapies for Diabetes, 26 (3), pp. 475-486; Marian, J., Rewersa, K., Carine de, B., Maria, E., Ragnar, H., Carlo, L., David, M., Assessment and monitoring of glycemic control in children and adolescents with diabetes (2014) Pediatric Diabetes, 15 (20), pp. 102-114; Oldstein, E., Little, R., Lorenz, A., Malone, I., Tests of glycemia in diabetes (2004) Diabetes Care, 27 (7), pp. 1761-1773; Worth, R., Home, P., Johnston, D., Anderson, J., Linda, A., Jacqueline, M., Appleton, D., Alberti, K., Intensive attention improves glycaemic control in insulin-dependent diabetes without further advantage from home blood glucose monitoring: Results of a controlled trial (1982) British Medical Journal, 285 (30), pp. 1233-1240; Lu, J., Bu, R., Sun, Z., Lu, Q., Jin, H., Wang, Y., Wang, S., Yang, B., Comparable efficacy of selfmonitoring of quantitative urine glucose with self-monitoring of blood glucose on glycaemic control in non-insulintreated type 2 diabetes (2011) Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice, 93 (2011), pp. 179-186; Janet, M., Dianne, P., Urine testing for diabetic analysis (2015) Community Eye Health, 28 (92), p. 77; Anandakumar, H., Umamaheswari, K., A bio-inspired swarm intelligence technique for social aware cognitive radio handovers (2018) Computers & Electrical Engineering, 71, pp. 925-937. , Oct; Michael, J., Blood glucose (1990) Clinical Methods: The History, Physical, and Laboratory Examinations, , 3rd edition. editors (Walker, H.; Hall, W. and Hurst, J.).

The aim of current study was to investigate the possible correlation between human cytomegalovirusand Epstein Barr virus with type 1 diabetes mellitus.Methods: A total of 56 patients diagnosed with Type-1-diabetes who attended the Special Center for Endocrine Glands and Diabetes in Al-Nassyrieh city, and another control group of 30 nondiabetic healthy people were selected. These two groups were of age range 3-22 years old and from both sexes. The sera from both groups were collected and divided into two parts. One part for the serological detection of IgM and IgG antibodies against human cytomegalovirusand Epstein Barr virus by the enzyme-linked immune sorbent assay (ELISA) and another part to detect the viral target genes of human cytomegalovirusand Epstein Barr virus genome by the conventional Polymerase Chain Reaction(PCR) technique.Results: The results revealed that only 2(3.60%) of Type-1-diabetes patients were positive for anti-human cytomegalovirus IgM antibodies compared with a negative result of the control group and 53(94.60%) of Type-1-diabetes patients were positive for anti-human cytomegalovirus IgG antibodies compared with a full percentage in the control group (100.00%). Also, ELISA results indicated the presence of anti-Epstein Barr virus IgM antibodies and anti- Epstein Barr virus IgG antibodies in 7(12.50%) and 24(42.90%) of Type-1-diabetes patients, respectively, compared with negative results for both anti- E[stein Barr virus IgM and IgG antibodies of the control group. Regarding PCR technique, the results revealed that (33.93%) of Type-1-diabetes patients had Human Cytomegalovirus DNA and (26.79%) of Type-1-diabetes patients hadEpstein Barr virus DNA compared with none of the controls had Human Cytomegalovirus DNA or EpsteinBarr virus DNA (P<0.001).Conclusion: According to these results, the current study concluded that Human Cytomegalovirus and EpsteinBarr virus infections may have a role in the pathogenesis, development and progression of type 1 diabetes mellitus. © Annals of Tropical Medicine & Public Health S267.EBV; ELISA; HCMV; PCR; Type 1 Diabetes Mellitusimmunoglobulin G antibody; immunoglobulin M antibody; adolescent; adult; Article; case control study; child; controlled study; cytomegalovirus infection; diabetic patient; disease association; enzyme linked immunosorbent assay; Epstein Barr virus; Epstein Barr virus infection; female; gene amplification; human; Human cytomegalovirus; insulin dependent diabetes mellitus; Iraq; major clinical study; male; mixed infection; polymerase chain reaction; venous bloodAtkinson, M.A., The pathogenesis and natural history of type 1 diabetes (2012) Cold Spring.

Metformin has also been shown to decrease the growth of breast cancer cells and pancreatic cancer in hamsters and delays other types of tumors. The aim of this study was to compare the effects of Cisplatin (Cis) alone and Metformin alone on colon cancer cell line SW480. The results showed that the effect of Metformin on cell proliferation is concentration-dependent. Metformin enhances the proliferation and attachment of colon cancer at lower concentrations. Results showed a significant decrease in cell proliferation and attachment of colon cancer cells after Cisplatin treatment.Results of this study revealed that Cisplatin treatment decreased both proliferation and cell adhesion to the matrix. Combination therapy (Met+Cis) showed promising synergism and enhancement of anticancer activity of Cisplatin on colon cancer cells. We are strongly recommended more investigations to be more specific for using Metformin as general anticancer. © Annals of Tropical Medicine & Public HealthAnticancer activity; Antidiabetic; Cisplatin; MetforminBao, B., Metformin inhibits cell proliferation, migration and invasion by attenuating CSC function (2013) Cancer Pre Res, 5 (3), pp. 355-364; Bi, T., Metformin synergistically enhances the antitumor activity of cisplatin in gallbladder cancer via the PI3K/AKT/ERK pathway (2018) Cytotechnology.

An effective and safe vaccine remains a high priority. Most HIV vaccine candidates to date have failed to elicit effective immune responses that are necessary to control HIV infection. The results of a promising phase III trial conducted in Thailand using a recombinant canarypox vector vaccine (ALVAC) expressing HIV Gag in combination with recombinant HIV-Env glycoprotein gp120 (AIDSVAX), showed 31.2% efficacy in humans and raised the prospect of a protective vaccine. The most recommended HIV vaccines are focusing on inducing specific CD8+ T as a critical immune response to control progression and dissemination of HIV virus from the site of infection into different mucosal compartments of the body.This study project used influenza viruses as a mucosal live vaccine vector to stimulate effective CD8+ T cell immunity. Recombinant influenza A viruses, H3N2 (HK-X31) and H1N1 (A/PR8/8/34) expressing defined mouse HIV-1 CD8+ T cell epitopes (H-2Kd Gag197-205 and H-2Kd Tat17-25) in the neuraminidase (NA) stalk were generated using reverse genetics and administered as a prime-boost vaccine within various mucosal routes of vaccination, intranasal-intranasal, intravaginal-intravaginal, intranasal-intravaginal and intravaginal-intranasal vaccination in BALB/C mice. Following those prime-boost vaccinations, tetramer and intracellular cytokine staining assays used for the detection of specific CD8+ T cell immune response in harvested organs, spleen, bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), mediastinal and inguinal lymph nodes. In addition, mucosal HIV-specific CD8+ T cells were detected using specific anti-mouse CD8α antibodies directed against specific integrins (LPAM-1 and CD103). Moreover, the level of specific cytokines, such as interleukin-15 (IL-15) detected within specific mucosal CD8+ T cells for the detection of the migrated HIV-1 Gag+ CD8+ T cells.Our result showed there was an induction of CD8+ T cells targeted H-2KdGag197-205, compared to no CD8+ T cell responses specific for H-2Kd Tat17-25 in recombined influenza-HIV vaccinated BALB/c mice. Also, comparable HIV and endogenous influenza-specific CD8+ T cell responses following intranasally-intranasally prime-boost vaccination in harvested lymphoid tissues, spleen, bronchoalveolar lavage, and mediastinal lymph nodes compared to inguinal lymph nodes which included a high proportion of specific CD8+ T cell immune response following intravaginal-intravaginal prime-boost infection. Moreover, a proportion of these cells isolated from mice infected with recombinant influenza-HIV vaccine intranasally-intranasally prime-boost expressed mucosal surface integrins, especially LPAM-1(α4β7) of local and distal lymph nodes higher than the levels observed following intravaginal vaccination. In addition, mucosal LPAM-1+HIV-Gag197-205+ CD8+ T cells harvested of intranasal prime-boost vaccinated mice were recognized by a high expression of IL-15 compared to LPAM-1-HIVGag197-205+ CD8+ T cells.We conclude that the intranasal prime-boost vaccination as one of the mucosal routes of vaccination using recombinant influenza viruses as mucosal viral vectors of HIV vaccine in BALB/c mice has an important role in stimulating both specific and mucosal CD8+ T cells within a high level and these cells would be important for migration of mucosal specific CD8+ T cells given the mucosal acquisition of HIV infection and control of HIV-1 virus dissemination through mucosal compartments. © Annals of Tropical Medicine & Public Health S234BALB/c mice; Immune response; Prime boost HIV vaccination; Recombinant influenza virus vectors; Specific and mucosal CD8+ T cellAltman, J.D., Moss, P.A.H., Goulder, P.J.R., Barouch, D.H., McHeyzer-Williams, M.G., Bell, J.I., McMichael, A.J., Davis, M.M., Phenotypic analysis of antigen-specific T lymphocytes (1996) Science, 274 (5284), pp. 94-96; Al Shareefi, E., Cotter, S.C., The nutritional ecology of maturation in a carnivorous insect (2018) Behavioral Ecology, 30 (1), pp. 256-266; Al-Shareefi, E., Sahib, A.H.A., Hameed, I.H., Phytochemical screening by FTIR spectroscopic analysis and anti-fungal activity of fruit extract of selected medicinal plant of rutagraveolens (2019) Indian Journal of Public Health Research & Development, 10 (1), pp. 994-999; Al-Shareefi, E., Sahib, A.H.A., Hameed, I.H., In vitro Antibacterial and Anti-Fungal Activities of Methanolic Extract of Menthapulegium (2019) Indian Journal of Public Health Research & Development, 10 (1), pp. 988-993; Barnett, S.W., Srivastava, I.K., Kan, E., Zhou, F., Goodsell, A., Cristillo, A.D., Ferrai, M.G., Vajdy, M., Protection of macaques against vaginal SHIV challenge by systemic or mucosal and systemic vaccinations with HIV-envelope (2008) AIDS, 22 (3), pp. 339-348; Barouch, D.H., Challenges in the development of an HIV-1 vaccine (2008) Nature, 455 (7213), pp. 613-619; Belyakov, I.M., Derby, M.A., Ahlers, J.D., Kelsall, B.L., Earl, P., Moss, B., Strober, W., Berzofsky, J.A., Mucosal immunization with HIV-1 peptide vaccine induces mucosal and systemic cytotoxic T lymphocytes and protective immunity in mice against intrarectal recombinant HIV-vaccinia challenge (1998) Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 95 (4), pp. 1709-1714; Belyakov, I.M., Derby, M.A., Ahlers, J.D., Kelsall, B.L., Earl, P., Moss, B., Strober, W., Berzofsky, J.A., Mucosal immunization with HIV-1 peptide vaccine induces mucosal and systemic cytotoxic T lymphocytes and protective immunity in mice against intrarectal recombinant HIV-vaccinia challenge (1998) Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 95 (4), pp. 1709-1714; Belyakov, I.M., Derby, M.A., Ahlers, J.D., Kelsall, B.L., Earl, P., Moss, B., Strober, W., Berzofsky, J.A., Mucosal immunization with HIV-1 peptide vaccine induces mucosal and systemic cytotoxic T lymphocytes and protective immunity in mice against intrarectal recombinant HIV-vaccinia challenge (1998) Proc.

The gonadotropins which are most frequently used during COS/ICSI cycles are r-FSH and r-HMG (FSH+LH). Over many years, outcomes achieved with using both gonadotropins during COS have been compared and the superiority of using both or only r-FSH is still a controversial topic that necessitates further studying. The aim of this research is to study the effectiveness of adding r-HMG to r-FSH on ICSI outcome in infertile patients who underwent COS. Fifty infertile couples were included who attended fertility clinic due to either female factor or male factor infertility and all of them were treated by ICSI and subjected to COS by r-FSH with or without r-HMG. ICSI outcome was assessed in the form of the total number of retrieved oocytes, FR, CR, embryo quality and chemical PR.The study showed that there was no significant difference between using both gonadotropins or FSH alone regarding the total number of oocytes produced, fertilization rate (FR), cleavage rate (CR), embryos number and quality except pregnancy rate (PR) which was lower with adding r-HMG 41.66% VS 50 % with r-FSH alone. We concluded that the combined use of r-HMG+r-FSH is effective as r-FSH alone in terms of oocytes' and embryos' quality while the effect on PR is still undetermined. © Annals of Tropical Medicine & Public Health S232COS; ICSI; PR; R-FSH; R-HMGZoranco, P., Gligor, D., Byrol, A., Makjuli, H., Valentina, S., Damjan, S., Stefan, S., Trajan, B., Recombinant FSH versus HP-HMG for Controlled Ovarian Stimulation in Intracitoplasmic Sperm Injection Cycles (2011) MED.

Because of the water shortage feeds the marshes during the last years, the re-flooded marshes began to dry again. The Al-Sanaf marsh is part of the Al Hammar marsh located in the Thi Qar province. It is not separated hydraulically from the Al Hammar marsh. The study suggested separating the two marshes by replacing the culverts under security dyke with uncontrolled weir to keep the area of Al-Sanaf marsh submerged. If there is any added water, it will cross from the suggested structure to the Al Hammar marsh. A hydrodynamic and water quality routing models (RMA2 and RMA4) were prepared based on mass conservation low, mass balance model, and four scenarios were applied for the Al-Sanaf marsh based on the incoming discharges. The suggested model was calibrated with field data measured in the marsh. The four suggested scenarios are to keep the requirement of the Al-Sanaf marsh restoration. The maximum submerged area of the marsh is 100 km2 under any operation conditions while this area was reduced to 72 km2 under low flow conditions (minimum inflow from the feeders). The three scenarios operated considering values of inflow from Euphrates River with the required inflow from Al Khamissiya canal to keep the minimum level of salinity in the submerged area. While the fourth scenario operated with the minimum value of discharge from all feeders. © 2019 Polish Society of Ecological Engineering (PTIE).Al hammar marshes; Al-Sanaf marsh; Hydrodynamic mode; Marshland; RMA2; RMA4Al-Ansari, N., Management of water resources in Iraq: Perspectives and prognoses (2013) Engineering, 5 (6), pp. 667-684; Al-Ansari, N., Knutsson, S., Possibilities of restoring the Iraqi marshes known as the Garden of Eden (2011) Paper presented at the Water and Climate Change in the MENA-Region: Adaptation, Mitigation and Best Practices, , 28/04/2011-29/04/2011; Al-Ansari, N., Knutsson, S., Ali, A., Restoring the Garden of Eden, Iraq (2012) Journal of Earth Sciences and Geotechnical Engineering, 2 (1), pp. 53-88; Al-Gburi, H.F.A., Al-Tawash, B.S., Al-Lafta, H.S., Environmental assessment of Al Hammar Marsh, Southern Iraq (2017) Heliyon, 3 (2); Al-Musawi, N.O., Al-Obaidi, S.K., Al-Rubaie, F.M., Evaluating water quality index of al hammar marsh, south of iraq with the application of gis technique (2018) Journal of Engineering Science and Technology, 13 (12), pp. 4118-4130; Al Obaidy, A.H.M.J., Al-Khateeb, M., The challenges of water sustainability in Iraq (2013) Engineering and Technology Journal, 31 (5), pp. 828-840. , (Part (A) Engineering); Alhamdani, J., (2014) Location of outlet and operation of the west part of AlHammar Marsh, , Ph.

Using this property, we are able to show that under some reasonable hypotheses on the set of weakly pseudoconvex points, the Diederich–Fornæss index for a Hartogs domain is equal to one if and only if the domain admits a family of good vector fields in the sense of Boas and Straube. We also study the analogous problem for a Stein neighborhood basis and show that, under the same hypotheses, if the Diederich–Fornæss index for a Hartogs domain is equal to one, then the domain admits a Stein neighborhood basis. © 2019 by the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign.Barrett, D.E., (1992) Behavior of the Bergman Projection on the Diederich–Fornæss Worm, Acta Math., 168, pp. 1-10. , 1149863; Bedford, E., Fornaess, J.E., Domains with pseudoconvex neighborhood systems (1978) Invent.

A metal/semiconductor/metal structure was considered to attain plasmonic nanocavity with active region containing: QD, wetting layer and barrier. The dielectric function was calculated for both metal (Ag) and QD structure. The propagation constant of surface plasmon polariton (SPP) at the interface of Ag/InAs-QD structure was calculated and the dispersion relation of the plasmonic QD structure was evaluated. For frequencies far from plasma one, the gap between real and imaginary parts was large and a deviation from linear relation was obvious. The SPP field was strongly localized at the interface due to the effect of zero-dimensional QD structure which has application in the super-resolution and best sensitivity in optical imaging. Results of propagation length of SPP (Lspp) also support this. According to the Lspp results, the damping in the SPP energy was low in the Ag/InAs-QD compared to that in the Ag/air interface. The obtained results are in the range of experimental ones. © 2019, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.Ag/QD; Plasmonic QD structure; Surface plasmon polaritonElectromagnetic wave polarization; Indium compounds; Nanocrystals; Phonons; Photons; Plasmonics; Semiconductor quantum dots; Wetting; Dielectric functions; Dispersion relations; Propagation constant; Propagation lengths; Real and imaginary; Super resolution; Surface plasmon polaritons; Zero-dimensional; Silver compoundsAbdullah, M., Noori, F.T.M., Al-Khursan, A.H., Terahertz emission in ladder plus Y-configurations in double quantum dot structure (2015) Appl.

Detecting k-complexes visually requires a highly qualified expert. In this study, an efficient method for detecting k-complexes from electroencephalogram (EEG) signals based on fractal and frequency features coupled with an ensemble model of three classifiers is presented. EEG signals are first partitioned into segments, using a sliding window technique. Then, each EEG segment is decomposed using a dual-tree complex wavelet transform (DT-CWT) to a set of real and imaginary parts. A total of 10 sub-bands are used based on four levels of decomposition, and the high sub-bands are considered in this research for feature extraction. Fractal and frequency features based on DT-CWT and Higuchi's algorithm are pulled out from each sub-band and then forwarded to an ensemble classifier to detect k-complexes. A twelve-feature set is finally used to detect the sleep EEG characteristics using the ensemble model. The ensemble model is designed using a combination of three classification techniques including a least square support vector machine (LS-SVM), k-means and Naïve Bayes. The proposed method for the detection of the k-complexes achieves an average accuracy rate of 97.3 %. The results from the ensemble classifier were compared with those by individual classifiers. Comparisons were also made with existing k-complexes detection approaches for which the same datasets were used. The results demonstrate that the proposed approach is efficient in identifying the k-complexes in EEG signals; it yields optimal results with a window size 0.5 s. It can be an effective tool for sleep stages classification and can be useful for doctors and neurologists for diagnosing sleep disorders. © 2019 IBROdual-tree complex wavelet transform; EEG signals; ensemble model; fractal dimensions; K-complexesalgorithm; arousal; Article; Bayes theorem; classification; classifier; decomposition; electroencephalogram; human; measurement accuracy; priority journal; sleep; support vector machine; wavelet transform; biological model; electroencephalography; factual database; fractal analysis; procedures; sleep stage; wavelet analysis; Bayes Theorem; Brain Waves; Databases, Factual; Electroencephalography; Fractals; Humans; Models, Neurological; Sleep Stages; Support Vector Machine; Wavelet AnalysisUniversity of Southern Queensland, USQThe authors would like to thank Dr Barbara Harmes (Language Centre, Open Access College, University of Southern Queensland, Australia), for her help and support.Accardo, A., Affinito, M., Carrozzi, M., Bouquet, F., Use of the fractal dimension for the analysis of electroencephalographic time series (1997) Biol Cybern, 77, pp. 339-350; Al Ghayab, H.R., Li, Y., Siuly, S., Abdulla, S., A feature extraction technique based on tunable Q-factor wavelet transform for brain signal classification (2019) J Neurosci Methods, 312, pp. 43-52; Al-Salman, W., Li, Y., Wen, P., Detecting sleep spindles in EEGs using wavelet fourier analysis and statistical features (2019) Biomed Signal Process Control, 48, pp. 80-92; Al-Salman, W., Li, Y., Wen, P., Detection of EEG K-complexes using fractal dimension of time frequency images technique coupled with undirected graph features (2019) Front Neuroinf, 13; Al-salman, W., Li, Y., Wen, P., Diykh, M., An efficient approach for EEG sleep spindles detection based on fractal dimension coupled with time frequency image (2018) Biomed Signal Process Control, 41, pp. 210-221; Bankman, I.N., Sigillito, V.G., Wise, R.A., Smith, P.L., Feature-based detection of the K-complex wave in the human electroencephalogram using neural networks (1992) IEEE Trans Biomed Eng, 39, pp. 1305-1310; Baraniuk, R., Kingsbury, N., Selesnick, I., The dual-tree complex wavelet transform-a coherent framework for multiscale signal and image processing (2005) IEEE Signal Process Mag, 22, pp. 123-151; Berry, R.B., Brooks, R., Gamaldo, C.E., Harding, S.M., Marcus, C., Vaughn, B., The AASM manual for the scoring of sleep and associated events (2012) Rules, Terminology and Technical Specifications, , American Academy of Sleep Medicine Darien, Illinois; Da Costa, J.C., Ortigueira, M., Batista, A., K-means clustering for sleep spindles classification (2013) Int J Inf Technol Comput Sci (IJITCS); Das, A.B., Bhuiyan, M.I.H., Alam, S.S., Classification of EEG signals using normal inverse Gaussian parameters in the dual-tree complex wavelet transform domain for seizure detection (2016) SIViP, 10, pp. 259-266; Devuyst, S., Dutoit, T., Stenuit, P., Kerkhofs, M., Automatic K-complexes detection in sleep EEG recordings using likelihood thresholds (2010) Engineering in medicine and biology society (EMBC), 2010 annual international conference of the IEEE, pp. 4658-4661. , IEEE; Devuyst, S., Dutoit, T., Stenuit, P., Kerkhofs, M., Automatic sleep spindles detection—overview and development of a standard proposal assessment method (2011) Engineering in medicine and biology society, EMBC, 2011 annual international conference of the IEEE, pp. 1713-1716. , IEEE; Diykh, M., Li, Y., Wen, P., EEG sleep stages classification based on time domain features and structural graph similarity (2016) IEEE Trans Neural Syst Rehabil Eng, 24, pp. 1159-1168; Erdamar, A., Duman, F., Yetkin, S., A wavelet and teager energy operator based method for automatic detection of K-complex in sleep EEG (2012) Expert Syst Appl, 39, pp. 1284-1290; Esteller, R., Vachtsevanos, G., Echauz, J., Litt, B., A comparison of waveform fractal dimension algorithms (2001) IEEE Trans Circuits Systems I: Fundamental Theory Appl, 48, pp. 177-183; Finotello, F., Scarpa, F., Zanon, M., EEG signal features extraction based on fractal dimension (2015) Engineering in medicine and biology society (EMBC), 2015 37th annual international conference of the IEEE, pp. 4154-4157. , IEEE; Gala, M., Mohylova, J., Detection of k-complex in the EEG signal (2009) World congress on medical physics and biomedical engineering, September 7-12, 2009, Munich, Germany, pp. 1170-1173. , Springer; Gao, H., Jian, S., Peng, Y., Liu, X., A subspace ensemble framework for classification with high dimensional missing data (2017) Multidimension Syst Signal Process, 28, pp. 1309-1324; Gorur, D., Halici, U., Aydin, H., Ongun, G., Ozgen, F., Leblebicioglu, K., Sleep spindles detection using short time Fourier transform and neural networks (2002) Proceedings of the 2002 international joint conference on neural networks.

This paper proposes a new robust control scheme based on fuzzy system and Ant Colony Optimization algorithm. Adaptive fuzzy controllers (AFCs) based on Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithm are proposed to eliminate the chattering phenomenon that occurs when the walking robot moves on rough surfaces. Six rotational joints are used to connect the seven links of the bipedal walking robot. Those joints are assumed frictionless and actuated by six independent servomotors. Therefore, six adaptive fuzzy controllers are designed in this work (one for each joint). To design robust fuzzy controllers, the Ant Colony Optimization algorithm is utilized to tune and find the best parameters of the output membership function of the fuzzy controller. For comparison purposes, optimal PID controllers (OPIDCs) are designed with optimal parameters that are chosen by utilizing the Ant colony algorithm. The performances of the two proposed controllers (AFCs and OPIDCs) are tested under significant disturbances situations such as carrying different weighted things by the walking biped robot. In addition, the stability of the adaptive fuzzy controller is studied and proved by applying Lyapunov theory. © 2019, Shiraz University.Adaptive fuzzy control; Ant Colony Optimization algorithm; Nonlinear system; Optimal PID control; Seven-link biped robotBowling, A., Impact forces and agility in legged robot locomotion (2010) J Vib Control, 17 (3), pp. 335-346; Cam, E., Gorel, G., Mamur, H., Use of the genetic algorithm-based fuzzy logic controller for load-frequency control in a two area interconnected power system (2017) Appl Sci, 308 (7), pp. 1-22; Chen, C., Shih, B., Shih, C., Wang, L., Design, modeling and stability control for an actuated dynamic walking planar bipedal robot (2012) J Vib Control, 19 (3), pp. 376-384; Chen, C., Shih, B., Shih, C., Wang, L., Human–machine interface for the motion control of humanoid biped robots using graphical user interface Motion Editor (2012) J Vib Control, 19 (6), pp. 814-820; Chen, C., Shih, B., Shih, C., Wang, L., Enhancing robust and stability control of a humanoid biped robot: system identification approach (2012) J Vib Control, 19 (8), pp. 1199-1207; Chow, C.K., Jacobson, Further studies of human locomotion: postural stability and control (1972) Math Biosci, 15, pp. 93-108; Cleave, D.V., Rattan, K.S., Tuning of fuzzy logic controller using neural network (2000) Proceedings of the IEEE 2000 National Aerospace and Electronics Conference, , NAECON 2000.

This paper studied numerically the potential for reduction in energy consumption for cooling and heating loads for a residence equipped with an EAHE system in the climate of Nasiriya city, which is located in southern Iraq and at 31.7°N and 45.8°E, latitude and longitude, respectively. Also, this paper presents a study about the thermal performance of three types of EAHE systems, system 1, consisting of one layer of EAHE and buried at an available area of house garden with 3-m depth, system 2, at the same site of system 1, but with two layers of EAHE at two depths, 3 and 4 m, and finally, system 3, buried along the area of the house at a depth of 3 m. First, the built numerical model was validated against experimental results, and the results of the comparison showed good agreement. The electricity consumption for cooling and heating of the house is calculated with and without the EAHE system. The results showed that with using EAHE, there is a considerable saving in energy and saving in the cost of electricity consumption, which reached 376 329 IQD ($301.11) over 1 year for system 2. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.computational fluid dynamics; Earth to air heat exchanger system; energy saving; geothermal energy; numerical investigation; thermal performanceAir; Computational fluid dynamics; Electric power utilization; Energy conservation; Energy utilization; Geothermal energy; Heat exchangers; Houses; Cost of electricity; Earth-to-air heat exchanger; Electricity-consumption; Numerical investigations; Passive cooling and heating; Reduction in energy consumption; Residential building; Thermal Performance; HeatingSehli, A., Hasni, A., Tamali, M., The potential of earth-air heat exchangers for low energy cooling of buildings in South Algeria (2012) Energy Proc, 18, pp. 496-506; Bisoniya, T.S., Kumar, A., Baredar, P., Experimental and analytical studies of earth–air heat exchanger (EAHE) systems in India: a review (2013) Renew Sustain Energy Rev, 19, pp. 238-246; Nayak, D.S., Narwal, K., Chaudhary, R., Mathematical modeling and experimental study for summer performance of earth air heat exchanger integrated with a solar greenhouse (2016) IOSR J Environ Sci Toxicol Food Technol, 10 (9), pp. 75-86. , e-, p- ISSN 2319-2399 Ver.

This paper presents an evaluation of the structural behavior of CFST short columns strengthened by external and internal continuous spirals. A total of 16 CFST specimens were tested under axial compression. Specimens were stiffened as follows: (1) external continuous spiral (ECS) welded to the exterior surface of the steel tube, (2) internal continuous spiral (ICS) welded to the interior surface of the steel tube, and (3) unwelded internal continuous spiral (UICS) placed longitudinally inside the steel tube. Self-compacting concrete (SCC) was used in the experimental study. The main parameters in this study are the diameter of spiral bar, the number of spiral turns, and the location of the continuous spiral. From the test results, it was concluded that toughness, elastic strength, and ductility were improved significantly as a result of stiffening the CFST columns by external and internal spirals. ECS, ICS, and UICS improved the compression capacity up to 46.8%, 48.7%, and 47.9%, respectively, as compared with the control specimen. A theoretical model to estimate the ultimate load of stiffened CFST columns was developed and close correlations were found between the model and the experimental results. © 2019 Institution of Structural EngineersCompressive strength;

A metal/semiconductor/metal (MSM) structure was considered to attain plasmonic nanocavity. The active region (semiconductor layers) contains the following: QD, wetting layer (WL), and barrier layers. Band alignment between layers was used to predict their parameters. Momentum matrix element for transverse magnetic (TM) mode in QD structure was formulated. Waveguide Fermi energy was introduced and formulated, for the first time, in this work to cover the waveguide contribution (Ag metal layer) in addition to the active region. The high net modal gain was obtained when the waveguide Fermi energy was considered which meant that the increment comes from the material gain, not from the confinement factor. The obtained results were reasoned the high gain due to the change in waveguide Fermi energy in the valence band, where the valence band QD states are fully occupied that are referring to an efficient hole contribution. © 2019, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.Plasmonic nanolaser; Quantum dot; Surface plasmon polaritonChang, S.-W., Lin, T.-R., Chuang, S.L., Theory of plasmonic Fabry-Perot nanolasers (2010) Opt Express, 18, pp. 15039-15053. , COI: 1:CAS:528:DC%2BC3cXovVehtLw%3D; Ni, C.-Y.A., Chang, S.-W., Gargas, D.J., Moore, M.C., Yang, P., Chuang, S.L., Metal-coated zinc oxide nanocavities (2011) IEEE J Quantum Electron, 47, pp. 245-251. , COI: 1:CAS:528:DC%2BC3MXisFOqsr4%3D; Lu, C.-Y., Chuang, S.L., A surface-emitting 3D metal-nanocavity laser: proposal and theory (2011) Opt Express, 19, pp. 13225-13244. , COI: 1:CAS:528:DC%2BC3MXptFaku7Y%3D; Chang, S.-W., Ni, C.-Y.A., Chuang, S.L., Theory for bowtie plasmonic nanolasers (2008) Opt Express, 16, pp. 10580-10595; Dwara, S.N., Al-Khursan, A.H., Quantum efficiency of InSbBi quantum dot photodetector (2015) Appl Opt, 54, pp. 9722-9727. , COI: 1:CAS:528:DC%2BC2sXltlantLo%3D; Li, D.B., Ning, C.Z., Peculiar features of confinement factors in a metal-semiconductor waveguide (2010) Appl Phys Lett, 96, p. 181109; Chang, S.W., Chuang, S.L., Fundamental formulation for plasmonic nanolaser (2009) IEEE J Quantum Electron, 45, pp. 1014-1023. , COI: 1:CAS:528:DC%2BD1MXpsV2ls7g%3D; Kim, J., Laemmlin, M., Meuer, C., Bimberg, D., Eisenstein, G., Static gain saturation model of quantum-dot semiconductor optical amplifiers (2008) IEEE J Quantum Electron, 44, pp. 658-666. , COI: 1:CAS:528:DC%2BD1cXpslOjsrY%3D; Li, D.B., Ning, C.Z., Giant modal gain, amplified surface plasmon-polariton propagation, and slowing down of energy velocity in a metal-semiconductor-metal structure (2009) Phys Rev B, 80; Yu, H., Schaekers, M., Barla, K., Horiguchi, N., Collaert, N., Thean, A.V.-Y., De Meyer, K., Contact resistivities of metal-insulator-semiconductor contacts and metal-semiconductor contacts (2016) Appl Phys Lett, 108; Agrawal, A., Lin, J., Barth, M., White, R., Zheng, B., Chopra, S., Gupta, S., Datta, S., Fermi level depinning and contact resistivity reduction using a reduced titania interlayer in n-silicon metal-insulator-semiconductor ohmic contacts (2014) App Phys Lett, 104; Orfanidis, S.J., (2014) Electromagnetic Waves and Antennas, , Rutgers University; Krishnamurthy, V., Klein, B., Theoretical investigation of metal cladding for nanowire and cylindrical micropost lasers (2008) IEEE J Quantum Electron, 44, pp. 67-74. , COI: 1:CAS:528:DC%2BD1cXhvFegt7c%3D; Ikeda, K., Fainman, Y., Alan Shore, K., Kawaguchi, H., Modified long-range surface plasmon polariton modes for laser nanoresonators (2011) J Appl Phys, 110; Numai, T., (2015) Fundamentals of Semiconductor Lasers, , Springer; Huang, Y.Z., Pan, Z., Wu, R.H., Analysis of the optical confinement factor in semiconductor lasers (1996) J Appl Phys, 79, p. 3827. , COI: 1:CAS:528:DyaK28Xis1Gktr4%3D; Chuang, S.L., (2009) Physics of Photonic Devices, , 2nd edn, Wiley; Coldren, L.A., Crozine, S.W., Milan, L., (2012) Masanovic, Diode Lasers and Photonic Integrated Circuits, , 2nd edn, Wiley; Chang, S.W., Chuang, S.L., Normal modes for plasmonic nanolasers with dispersive and inhomogeneous media (2009) Opt Lett, 34, pp. 91-93; Kim, J., Chuang, S.L., Theoretical and experimental study of optical gain, refractive index change, and linewidth enhancement factor of p-doped quantum-dot lasers (2006) IEEE J Quantum Electron, 42, pp. 942-952. , COI: 1:CAS:528:DC%2BD28XhtVOmt73E; Al-Husseini, H., Amin, H., Al-Khursan, Al-Dabagh, S.Y., III-N QD lasers (2009) Open Nanosci J, 3, pp. 1-11. , COI: 1:CAS:528:DC%2BD1MXmt1CitbY%3D; Asada, M., Miyamoto, Y., Suematsu, Y., Gain and the threshold of three-dimensional quantum-box lasers (1986) IEEE J Quantum Electron, 22, pp. 1915-1921; Zory, P.S., (1993) Quantum Well Lasers, , Elsevier; Abbas, M.N., Mohammed, D.S., Quality factor improvement for nano cavity (2015) Int J Comput Appl, 127, pp. 22-25; Yu, H., Schaekers, M., Schram, T., Demuynck, S., Horiguchi, N., Barla, K., Collaert, N., De Meyer, K.M., Thermal stability concern of metal-insulator semiconductor contact: a case study of Ti/TiO2/n-Si contact (2016) IEEE Trans Electron Devices, 63, pp. 2671-2676. , COI: 1:CAS:528:DC%2BC2sXhsFOqtL7MAl-Khursan, A.H.; Nassiriya Nanotechnology Research Laboratory (NNRL), Iraq; email: ameen_2all@yahoo.comSpringer15571955EnglishPlasmonicsArticleFinalScopus2-s2.0-85068836926

In particular, the average secrecy capacity, secure outage probability (SOP), the lower bound of SOP (SOPL), and the probability of strictly positive secrecy capacity are derived by using the classic Wyner's wiretap model. Two different scenarios for the fading parameters, namely, μ and m, which represent the real extension of the number of the multipath clusters and the shadowing index, respectively, have been studied. These parameters are chosen first as arbitrary numbers, thus the performance metrics are given in exact closed-form in terms of the extended generalised bivariate Fox's Hfunction that has been widely implemented in the open literature using various software packages. In the second scenario, both the fading parameters are assumed to be integer numbers to obtain the derived results in simple exact closed-form mathematically tractable expressions in terms of some analytic functions. The numerical results of this analysis are verified via the Monte Carlo simulations. © The Institution of Engineering and Technology 2019.Fading channels; Intelligent systems; Monte Carlo methods; Network layers; Analytic functions; Fading conditions; Fading parameters; Multipath clusters; Outage probability; Performance metrics; Physical layer security; Wire-tap channels; ProbabilityWyner, A.D., The wire-tap channel (1975) Bell Syst.

The researchers assumed that there are differences with moral guidance in the phenomenon of psychological burning among football referees and football referees of first class halls in southern zone. The researchers had mentioned to the theoretical studies that contained of multiple researches related to the topic of the research. The researchers used the describing method by principle of comparative studies due to is suitable for the problem of the research, The research sample was contained from (28) referees divided onto (14) football referees and (14) referees of first class halls after implementing measure of psychological burning on a sample of research the researchers did to find differences between the two groups by using the law of (T) for the independent samples, After that theses results has been previewed and analysis and discussed so the researchers reached to conclusions the most important of the is that there are no any moral differences between the groups of football referees and football referees of first class halls in southern zone. As for the most important recommendations that there is a necessity to insert referees whether football referees and football referees of first-class halls in southern zone. And would be supervised by psychological consultant for sake to instruct them about the psychological burning phenomenon and causing reasons so to insure their acknowledgment of this phenomenon in future. © 2019, Indian Journal of Public Health Research and Development.

Details history and physical examination were done for every subject participated in this study. Fertilization rate (FR) was calculated as percentage transformation of microinjected oocytes into two pronuclei. A categorical variable of FR defined based on 50% FR grouped couples; Group I with FR>50% and Group II with FR>50%. The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of fertilization rate on ICSI outcome and pregnancy rate for unexplained subfertile couples. Main results of this study revealed that there was a significant difference (p<0.05) in ICSI outcome and pregnancy rate between different study groups. With increasing fertilization rate, there was an increase in the ICSI outcome and the pregnancy rate. It was concluded that increased fertilization rate have a positive impact on the ICSI outcome and pregnancy rate for unexplained subfertile couples. © 2019, Indian Journal of Public Health Research and Development.

We investigated the Freon gas, R22, belonging to the group of Hydrochlorofluorocarbons considered to be very dangerous, due to their role in destructing of layer, and discussed the adsorption of R22 on the surface of pristine, one Al-atom and two Al-atoms doped Graphene Nanoflakes (GNFs). Besides, we have studied theoretically the geometrical optimization, electronic properties and adsorption of undoped and doped Graphene Nanoflakes. All calculations are based on the density functional theory (DFT). Results show that adding one atom or two atoms of aluminum to GNFs causes a big decrease in the energy gap; at the adsorption of Freon R22 molecules by two Al-atoms doped GNFs, the structure becomes less gas-sensitive than one Al-atom doped GNFs. The band gaps, density of states (DOS), dipole moments, total energies, highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energies have been calculated for undoped and doped with Al GNFs either with or without the Freon R22 gas molecules. © 2019, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.adsorption energies; Al doped GNFs; DFT; DOS; energy gap; gas-sensitive materials; graphene nanoflakesMinistry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, MHESRThe authors would like to thank the Iraqi Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research for its care of scientific researchers through the Iraqi Virtual Science Library (IVSL) and to Ast.

Identifying cytopathic effect and using it as a investigative tool needs much practice in observing stained section of numerous cell types. The present study aimed at diagnosing the histological changes in the malignant breast tissue, which caused by the HPV and comparing them with malignant breast tissue caused by other factors in order to find a way to diagnose the virus through the histopathic effect. A total of 100 samples was included in the study, 20 from benign tumor and 80 carcinomas, including different histopathological change. HPV was detected by using the conventional PCR. The breast cancer sections were examined for the expression of the effect of Human papillomavirus. In separate series the results of using formalin-fixed, paraffin -embedded sections were compared. Overall prevalence of HPV in malignant breast tissue was difference, we found that the histopathological characteristics of HPVassociated breast cancer are very different to breast cancercaused by other factors. Specifically, we showed the presence of HPV in breast cancer associates with the adenocarcinoma, The virus caused more activity in the tumor. Tumor is acinar carcinoma with increased cellularty and proliferative, While, in none infected with virus, there is no increased in cellularty or acinar, in some arease there was dilution of ducts.The observations indicate a likely causal role of HPV in causing a different histopathological change than breast cancercaused by other factors, This helps in the diagnosing of the HPV through cytopathic effect. © 2019 IOP Publishing Ltd.

Therefore, researchers have used several modified protocols for efficient DNA extraction from bacteria. Results showed that high quantity and quality of isolated DNA from negative and positive bacteria (Escherichia. coli, Klebsiella. pneumonia, Pseudomonas. aeruginosa, Staphylococcus. aureus and Staphylococcus. epidermidis) by blood extraction kit to do hundreds of PCR-based reactions and also to be utilized in other DNA manipulation assay such as restriction digestion, drug-DNA interaction and methylation detection survey. This method is applicable to various species of bacteria isolated from diverse sources. The DNA yields were high and pure enough to be readily amplified by PCR and the PCR products were suitable for sequencing.

Free radicals have been defined as intermediates of some biological redox reactions necessary for the maintenance of life. In presence of a free radical initiator and oxygen they may be oxidized this leading to lipid peroxidation, as it was suggested, might be associated with running out of hydrogen. In particular lipid peroxidation measured as levels of malondialdehyde (MDA). Glutathione (GSH), an intracellular thiol causes the eradication of free radicals or reduction in hydrogen peroxide level on state of oxidative stress. Decrease in the reduced GSH level has been reported in the erythrocyte of diabetics. Decrease in the level of GSH occurs both due to the competition between aldose reductase and glutathione reductase for NADPH, a cofactor, and increased oxidative stress (increased ratio of NADH/NAD). This study was conducted on 60 subjects. Informed consent was obtained from each person who agreed to participate in this study, while the survey was based on standardized interviews and questionnaire. Subjects were grouped as type 2-diabetics and healthy control with fasting plasma glucose (FPG) < 5.50 mmol/L. The ages ranged from 18 to 50 years. Glucose was determined by an enzymatic colorimetric test on basis of Trinder-Reaction. MDA was performed as described by Lipid Peroxidation Assay Kit (Colorimetric/Fluorometric), while the levels of GSH in all subjects were measured by the DetectX® Glutathione kit. The results show a significant elevation (P ≤ 0.05) in levels of glucose and MDA of type 2-diabetic patients in comparison with healthy subjects, which reached to 16.30 ± 0.50 mmol/L and 0.87 ± 0.19 nmol/mL for the type 2-diabetic patients, and 4.60 ± 0.15mmol L and 0.29 ± 0.5 nmol/mL for the control group, respectively. Also, it has been found a significant decrease (P ≤ 0.05) in GSH levels in type 2-diabetic patients, which reached to 3.43 ± 0.91 μM/mL in comparison with the control group which reached to 6.13±0.21 μM/mL. In conclusion we can observe that the increase in glucose levels leads to free radical formation by auto-oxidation and increase in lipid peroxidation (MDA levels), and inadequate antioxidant defense can occur during DM. In addition, GSH deficiency will make the present state worse by increasing the oxidative stress, since GSH is an important antioxidant. © 2019 Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.GSH; MDA; oxidant-antioxidant balance; Type 2 diabetes mellitusAntioxidants; Colorimetry; Free radical reactions; Free radicals; Glucose; Lipids; Oxidants; Oxidation; Peptides; Reaction intermediates; Redox reactions; Surveys; Antioxidant defense; Antioxidant status; Diabetes mellitus; Free radical initiators; Glutathione reductase; Lipid peroxidation; Radical formation; Type 2 diabetes mellitus; Oxidative stressAsmat, U., Abad, K., Ismail, K., Diabetes mellitus and oxidative stress-A concise review.

Seventy males of Shami goats were phenotyped for growth performance (birth weight, weaning weight, slaughter weight ), carcass weights (hot and chill carcass weights) and non-carcass components traits (head, legs, skin, heart, lungs, testes, spleen and kidney weights). Male goats were weighed at the beginning of the experiment and the subsequent weights were measured. All goats were slaughtered to evaluate carcass characteristics. Two alleles (M and N) with frequencies of 0.84 and 0.16, respectively, and two genotypes (MM, MN) with 68.6% and 31.4% frequencies successively, were detected.

A metal/semiconductor/metal (MSM) structure was considered to attain plasmonic nanocavity with active region contains: QDs, wetting layer (WL) and barrier layers. Band alignment between layers was used to predict their parameters. Momentum matrix element for transverse magnetic (TM) mode in QD structure was formulated. Waveguide Fermi energy was introduced and formulated, for the first time, in this work to cover the waveguide contribution (Ag metal layer) in addition to the active region. Giant net modal gain was obtained when the waveguide Fermi energy was taken into account which means that the increment comes from the material gain not from the confinement factor. The change in waveguide Fermi energy in the valence band explained the high net modal gain, where the valence band QD states are fully occupied referring to an efficient hole contribution. © 2019 Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.-wire and-dot devices; Plasmonics; Quantum-well; Semiconductor lasersFermi level; Nanocrystals; Plasmonics; Quantum dot lasers; Quantum optics; Quantum well lasers; Semiconductor lasers; Semiconductor quantum wells; Valence bands; Waveguides; -wire and-dot devices; Active regions; Band alignments; Barrier layers; Confinement factor; Momentum matrix element; Transverse magnetic modes; Wetting layer; Semiconductor quantum dotsChang, S.W., Lin, T.R., Chuang, S.L., Theory of plasmonic Fabry-Perot nanolasers (2010) Optics Express, 18 (14), pp. 15039-15053; Adrian Ni, C.Y., Chang, S.W., Gargas, D.J., Moore, M.C., Yang, P., Chuang, S.L., Metal-Coated Zinc Oxide Nanocavities (2011) IEEE J.

Single-crystal XRD analysis confirms its ionic structure with one interstitial B(OH)3 per pentaborate(1-) unit. The pentaborate(1-) anions and B(OH)3 molecules are involved in a supramolecular giant H-bonded lattice with B(OH)3 units serving as ‘spacers’ to help accommodate the relatively large [Cu(dmen)2(H2O)2]2+ cations. © 2019, © 2019 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.boric acid; Copper(2+) complexes; oxidoborates; pentaborate(1-); polyborates; X-ray structureEngineering and Physical Sciences Research Council, EPSRCWe thank the EPSRC for the NCS X-ray crystallographic service (Southampton).Beckett, M.A., Recent Advances in Crystalline Hydrated Borates with Non-Metal or Transition-Metal Cations (2016) Coord.

Forty adult female rats were divided randomly into five groups each group included eight rats. The first group control group which received distilled water, the second group experimentally gastric ulceration by indomethacin while the third, fourth and fifth groups were gave aqueous extract of pomegranate peels at concentrations (25, 50 and 100 mg/kg body weight) respectively after induction of gastric ulceration. The current results showed a significant decreasing (Pd”0.05) in body weight, weight of (heart, liver, kidney, spleen and ovary) and LH level in experimentally gastric ulceration group compared with control group while non -significant decreasing was observed in other hormones (FSH, estrogen and progesterone). Significant increasing (Pd”0.05) was noticed in body weight and increasing in weight of organs in all groups which treated with aqueous extract of pomegranate peels at all concentrations compared with experimentally gastric ulceration group, while the level of hormones for groups which treated with aqueous extract of pomegranate peels was decreased compared with hormones of gastric ulceration group. Also, the results showed that the indomethacin caused gastric ulcer and many histopathological changes included affected of muscularis layer, fibrosis, infiltration of inflammatory cells with change in epithelium layer and congestion of blood vessels, while using of aqueous extract of pomegranate peels at concentrations (25, 50 and 100 mg/kg body weight) led to reconstitution of stomach by normal mucosa layer, epithelial tissue in addition to no signs of gastric ulcer. © 2019 All Rights ReservedPomegranate peel; Reproductive hormones; Ulcerationestrogen; follitropin; indometacin; pomegranate extract; progesterone; adult; animal experiment; animal model; animal tissue; Article; body weight; controlled study; enzyme linked immunosorbent assay; epithelium; female; histopathology; nonhuman; pomegranate; rat; stomach ulcerfollitropin, 9002-68-0; indometacin, 53-86-1, 74252-25-8, 7681-54-1; progesterone, 57-83-0Agrawal, V, Jaiswal, M, Jaiswal, Y, Gonadal and non-gonadal FSHR and LHR dysfunction during lipopolysaccharide induced failure of blastocyst implantation in mouse (2012) J.

Toachieve this mission the presence of E.coli was investigated as hygienic, quality indicator of raw milk also,phylogrouping, biofilm production ability and antibiogram was employed. Thus 54 raw milk samples were collected from two levels (markets and farms) at Al –Nasiriyah city south of Iraq, in period from January to March 2018. Traditional cultural and biochemical methods were used to isolate and identify E.coli, while molecular method (Cleremont method) was used to determine phylogenetic groups. E.coli was detected in 15 samples (27.8%), recovery percentage was significantly higher (40.7%) at market than farm (14.8%). Phylogenetic analysis revealed that all isolated strains were belong to two phylogroups;A (53.4%) and B2 (46.6%). According to the source of isolation phylogroup B2 was found only at market level, while phylogroup A was found in both market and farmlevel. This study found that most strains of phylogroup B2 (83.4%) were strong biofilm producer and harbor a potential antibiotics resistance to commonly used antibiotics, as determine in this study the poor hygienic practice of entire process beginning from milking through transporting to selling at market was responsible of contamination of milk with pathogenic strains that belong to phylogroup B2 which is mostly probably come from human source.In conclusion the raw milk constitute a serious public health threat to people who consumed raw milk. © 2019, Advanced Scientific Research.

The current study aims to present the morphological andmolecular characters offourth stage larvae of Contracaecum that isolated from N. nycticorax proventriculus as free larvae in al-Sanaf marsh, southern Iraq. Larvae of Contracaecum spp. collected from proventriculus of N. nycticorax aquatic birds werestudied morphologically and their genomic DNA isolated, the ITS-1 regions of rDNA amplified by PCR technique. Sequences alignments carried out to screen nucleotide variation in ITS-1 among samples. The alignment of the sequences between Contracaecum larvae in current study with the previously reported reference gene sequences in the GenBank showed two distinct species. The first Contracaecum septentrionale recorded for the first time in Iraq and submitted to GenBank with the accession numbers MK424799.1, the second Contracaecum microcephalumsubmitted to GenBank with the accession numbers MK424795.The analysis of the ITS-1 data for Contracaecum larvae supported the distinction between species of Contracaecum larvae. © 2019, Indian Journal of Public Health Research and Development.

Also 40 samples from of patients with skin fungal infections (including skin scraps, nail clippings, and parts of hair). The morphological and microscopic results of the isolates revealed that 21 isolates were Candida spp (Candida spp.), while the rest of the isolates were isolated at different rates and less frequently in the citrus samples. The skin samples showed 5 fungal species causing represented in 9 species involve AspergillusflavusAspergillusfumigatus, Candida albicans, C. tropicalis, Miccrosporiumgypseum, M.nanum, M.canis, Trichophytonspp, Epidermatophyton spp. The study also nails are the areas that mostly are infected according other areas, this may be because of their ability to produce some enzymes such as Phospholipase which plays an important role in breaking through the host issues. © 2019, Indian Journal of Public Health Research and Development.

Coating the AuNPs with albumin proteins is useful due to their biocompatibility and their ability to bind many drug molecules. Among carrier proteins, human serum albumin (HSA) is considered one of the major transporter proteins in the blood plasma. It constitutes approximately half of the protein found in human blood. Curve fitting method allow you to create, access, and modify curve fitting objects. It also allows, through method like plot and integrate, to perform operations that uniformly process the entirety of information encapsulated in a curve fitting object. The results are appeared that describe the variation of the NPs concentration with time, the fluoresce spectrum with nanoparticles. The analytical data are corresponding with experimental information. © 2019, Indian Journal of Public Health Research and Development.

Cisplatin is an important chemotherapeutic agent useful in the treatment of several cancers such as tumors of the testis (including extragonadal germ cell tumors), ovarian cancer, small cell and non-small cell lung cancer, squamous cell carcinomas of the head and neck,and despite the availability of some newer and less toxic quercetin drugs. Eighteen blood samples were obtained from male rats which divided into three groups for each group (n = 6), the first group (control), the second group (Cisplatin) and third group (Cisplatin + Quercetin). There is a significant decrease (P <0.05) in Creatinine, urea and TNF-ά concentrations in second group compared with the control and third groups. Also, the result showed a significant increase Creatinine, urea and TNF-ά concentrations in second group compared with the control group. The results showed a significant increase (P≤0.05) in red blood cell count(RBC), packed cell volume (HCT), hemoglobin (Hb) and Platelet in second groups compared with the control and third groups, also it showed a significant decreasein third group compared with control group. Therefore, the present study is undertaken to investigate the possible some blood parameter and renal protective effect of quercetin in rats treated with cisplatin. © 2019, Indian Journal of Public Health Research and Development.

Thus, researchers (experts) give great attention to the acquisition and mastering of these basic skills. The objective of this research was to define the effects of learning exercises within the scope of flexible circles on learning of some composite skills of Futsal football for students. Method: The researcher used the experimental method of equal groups. The fifth grade preparatory students (147 students), in the 2018/2019 academic year, at Mohammad Baqir Al-Sadr School for boys represented the study community. A sample of 30 students was randomly chosen from both classes (B&C). Participants were divided into two groups; one was experimental (15 students from Class B) using the learning exercise with the flexible circles model, while the second (15 student from Class C) was a control group using their teacher’s method (model).

This study was aimed at checking up the effect of exercising on the sand, in training of futsal, on some blood cell variables, heart rate and physical abilities. Method: Sixteen male players were chosen as a study sample from Al-Nasiriyah City Club. Their age ranged between 21 and 23 years. This study sample was divided into two eight-player groups; the experimental group who performed exercises on sandy field and the control group who exercised inside a closed hall. Exercises and training were conducted for two months, 3 days a week. Red blood cells, heart rate and physical capabilities were analyzed and assessed as per appropriate methods. Data were statistically analyzed by using SPSS and t- test. Results: The study showed changes in the variables of the study and demonstrated that exercises on the sand field produced better effects as compared to those conducted on the closed hall. Conclusion: Exercising on the sand is a good factor to reduce the breakage of red blood cells caused by solid surfaces and it is one of successful methods in the development of heart measurements and prepares it for the sport effort it faces. © 2019, Indian Journal of Public Health Research and Development.

Fifty (25 leukocytospermic vs. 25 non leukocytospermic) infertile couples collected from Al-Hussein Teaching Hospital/ Thi-qar Health Directorate enrolled in this study and semen samples were analyzed before and after in vitro sperm preparation technique. Furthermore, sperm concentration, sperm motility, progressive sperm motility, normal sperm morphology, and seminal leukocytes counts were evaluated according to standard WHO criteria (2010). For preparation technique, sperm prepared and incubated for 30 minute in 5% CO2 at 37°C. The results of present study shows that leukocytospermic men significantly (P<0.001) decreased and differences sperm functions compared with non leukocytospermic men may be due to reactive oxygen species generation by leukocytes. It was concluded that the increase seminal leukocyte counts lead to impaired sperm parameters and decrease fertilizing ability of human spermatozoa and sperm function improved and augmented after sperm processing technique.

Among these, quinazoline is a very interesting and important class of heterocyclic compounds having a wide range of applications. Current study investigated the simulation for the preparation of some pharmacological compounds against fungus and some bacteria derived from quinazoline. Methods: Compounds were simulated using data from a former study by Tiwary et al. and matching them through the (MOE) program. Results: The results showed that the compounds were behaving as good ligands when they interacted with amino acids for the enzyme (5nwh). Conclusion: Flexible docking of ligand to receptor molecules is an emerging approach and is extensively used to reduce cost and time in drug discovery. © 2019, Indian Journal of Forensic Medicine and Toxicology.

Studies show that about 1% of the world's population suffers from this disorder [1]. Epilepsy can be diagnosed by studying the electroencephalogram (EEG)signals, i.e. the electrical signals emitted from the brain and represent its activity. This paper proposed an epileptic seizures detection based on analysis of EEG signals. The detection is carried out firstly recording the EEG signals using the EEG device. The noise is then eliminated before features extraction process is carried out using HOS-WPD. These features are then used to train two classifiers, namely Navie Bayes and FFNN, by which the signals are classified as either benign or seizure. Experimental evaluation was carried out to compare the detection performance of both algorithms in terms of Precision, Recall, and Accuracy and using MIT BIH Dataset. © 2019 IEEE.EEG Analysis; EEG Signal; Epilepsy; FFNN; HOS-WPD; Medical Signal Processing; NBBrain; Electroencephalography; Neurophysiology; Niobium; Signal analysis; Systems engineering; Detection performance; EEG analysis; EEG signals; Electroencephalogram signals; Epilepsy; Epileptic seizure detection; Experimental evaluation; FFNN; Biomedical signal processingKandar, H.K.M.C.C., Das, S.K., Ghosh, L., Gupta, B.K., Epilepsy and its management: A review (2012) Journal of PharmaSciTech, 1 (2), pp. 20-26; Shen, C.P., Chan, C.M., Lin, F.S., Chiu, M.J., Lin, J.W., Kao, J.H., Lai, F., Epileptic seizure detection for multichannel eeg signals with support vector machines (2011) 2011 IEEE 11th International Conference on Bioinformatics and Bioengineering, pp. 39-43. , October; Fisher, R.S., Boas, W.V.E., Blume, W., Elger, C., Genton, P., Lee, P., Engel, J., Jr., Epileptic seizures and epilepsy: Definitions proposed by the international league against epilepsy (ilae) and the international bureau for epilepsy (ibe) (2005) Epilepsia, 46 (4), pp. 470-472; Shingare, A.S., Alnasrallah, A.M., Epileptic seizure detection using ensemble classifier and hos (higher order statistics (2016) 2016 International Conference on Computing Communication Control and Automation (ICCUBEA), pp. 1-7. , August) ieee; Joshi, V., Pachori, R.B., Vijesh, A., Classification of ictaland seizure-free eeg signals using fractional linear prediction (2014) Biomedical Signal Processing and Control, 9 (1), pp. 1-5; Wang, J., Liu, P., She, M.F., Nahavandi, S., Kouzani, A., Bag-of-words representation for biomedical time series classification (2013) Biomedical Signal Processing and Control, 8 (6), pp. 634-644; Dehuri, S., Jagadev, A.K., Cho, S.B., Epileptic seizure identification from electroencephalography signal using de-rbfns ensemble (2013) Procedia Computer Science, 23, pp. 84-95; Kutlu, Y., Kuntalp, D., Feature extraction for ECG heartbeats using higher order statistics of wpd coefficients (2012) Computer Methods and Programs in Biomedicine, 105 (3), pp. 257-267; Khan, Z.H., Hussain, N., Tiwana, M.I., Classification of eeg signals for wrist and grip movements using echo state network (2017) Biomedical Research, 28 (3), pp. 1095-1102; Sharanreddy, P., Kulkarni, P.K., Eeg signal classification for epilepsy seizure detection using improved approximate entropy (2013) Int J Public Health Sci, 2 (1), pp. 23-32; Namita, T., Mathew, D., Knn based ECG pattern analysis and classification (2016) Int.

The current study consisted of modeling 18 soil samples at three depths per area for 6 districts of the central, south, west, and eastern parts of Shatrah, northeast of Thi-Qar governorate, to determine the relationship between depth, pH, organic matter ratio and concentration of heavy elements in the soil. The results showed that the concentration of the three elements was high when compared to global rates of Pb (67.99 ppm), Cd (4.61 ppm) and Zn (68.64 ppm); the severity of adverse events was responded dramatically in a pH-time-concentration-dependent manner.

A new adsorbent was manufactured from agricultural waste using zinc chloride (ZnCl2 ) as activated agent at 700°C for 1 h. The porosity characterization of the prepared activated carbon was investigated by the Branuller-Emmett and Teller (BET) test. Three models, namely Yoon-Nelson, Thomas and Adam-Bohart were applied to represent the breakthrough curves of hexavalent chromium (Cr-VI) removals. The fixed-bed column study was conducted at different wastewater flow rates (6, 9 and 12 mL/min) and different bed depths (3, 5 and 7 cm). The removal efficiencies of Cr(VI) were increased from 42% to 95% with increase of activated carbon bed depth from 3 cm to 7 cm. © 2019 Desalination Publications.

The dependence of the electrical conductance, IV characteristics and thermopower on the concentration of phosphorene was investigated in depth. The increased presence of P supports the impedance towards moving electrons and consequently reduces the forward and backward currents, and thermopower.

Rossin College of Engineering and Applied Science, Lehigh University, Bethlehem, PA 18015, United StatesHigh-fidelity large eddy simulations (LES) were conducted to characterize the spatial and temporal structure of turbulent flows in an industrial-sized Francis turbine while the unit operated at the design point and partial load. A pressure surge with an amplitude of 8% of the turbine head was observed at partial load while the amplitude was <1% at the design point. The vortex rope precession observed in the draft tube correlated to the amplitude and frequency of the pressure surge. Central and peripheral water injections at various volumetric rates were considered to control the flow-induced pressure fluctuations. Central injection at the 4% and 6% flow rates attenuated high amplitude pressure fluctuations by 40% and 75% respectively at partial load. At the same operating conditions, peripheral injections did not have the same desired effect. Although power generation was not changed with water injection at the design point, it was reduced by about 2.5% by central injection and 0.5% by peripheral injection at partial load, showing a water injection mitigation strategy could be applied without any penalty. © 2019Design and partial load regime; Francis turbine; Large eddy simulations; Mitigation; Pressure surge; Water injectionFrancis turbines; Large eddy simulation; Mitigation; Mitigation strategy; Operating condition; Partial load; Peripheral injection; Pressure fluctuation; Pressure surges; Temporal structures; Water injectionNational Science Foundation, NSF: TG-CTS170051This work used the Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery Environment (XSEDE) supported by National Science Foundation grant number TG-CTS170051 .ANSYS, I., (2013), ANSYS fluent users guide release 15.0.

The active learning reliability method (called AK-IS) which is a combination of kriging metamodeling and importance sampling (IS) is used. The AK-IS technique significantly reduces the computation time with respect to the classical active learning reliability technique (called AK-MCS) combining kriging with Monte Carlo Simulations (MCS) by sampling around the design point. It was shown that the critical realization corresponding to the design point exhibits a perfect symmetry about the central vertical axis of the foundation. © 2019 Elsevier LtdBearing capacity; Importance sampling;

Based on the increasing need for reliable image encryption this paper presents a new method which combines the Haar wavelet transform with the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) and pixel shuffling based on a chaotic logistic map. In the proposed method the Haar wavelet transform is calculated from the original image to obtain the different frequency domains of the image, namely, the approximation coefficient (LL) and detail confidents (LH, HL and HH). The approximation part (LL) is then encrypted by using the AES algorithm to create the image diffusion and the inverse of the Haar wavelet transform is applied. To further enhance the encryption strength a chaotic logistic map is used to shuffle the resulting image thereby making a malicious reconstruction attempt very challenging. The proposed method was evaluated in an extensive set of tests and compared to several representative methods from the literature. Test results show that it performed well across a variety of images and achieved a better level of image encryption and a lower level of image degradation. © 2019, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.AES; Haar wavelet transform; Image encryption; Logistic mapApproximation algorithms; Data privacy; Image coding; Image compression; Image enhancement; Inverse problems; Pixels; Wavelet transforms; Advanced Encryption Standard; Approximation coefficients; Chaotic logistic maps; Different frequency; Haar wavelet transform; Image encryptions; Logistic maps; Multimedia applications; CryptographyAhadpour, S., Sadra, Y., Chaotic trigonometric Haar wavelet with focus on image encryption (2017) J Discret Math Sci Cryptogr, 20, pp. 1217-1239; Ajish, S., Wavelet based advanced encryption standard algorithm for image encryption (2015) Int J Eng Res Gen Sci, 3, pp. 943-950; Arrag, S., Hamdoun, A., Tragha, A., (2012) Design and implementation a different architectures of mixcolumn in FPGA; Bao, L., Zhou, Y., Chen, C.L.P., Image encryption in the wavelet domain.

Here, the authors investigate the effects of using the ‘Satelliting’ technique on the deposition and characteristics of A6061-TiC coatings fabricated by cold-spray. The results showed clear improvements in the deposition efficiency and porosity of the satellited powder obtained by using the satellited feedstock. Annealing heat-treatment was then applied for further enhancement of the coating's density and wear properties. The heat-treated coating exhibited a ~70% reduction in interlamellar porosity. Dry sliding wear testing using a steel counter body at 5 N showed that using a satellited feedstock with TiC yielded a 55% and 20% reduction in coating specific wear rate in comparison to coatings made using pure 6061 and blended 6061-TiC, respectively. This was further reduced by ~70% and 40% in comparison to the 6061 and blended 6061-TiC coating after heat-treatment with good repeatability. © 2019Aluminium 6061; Annealing; Coatings; Cold spray; Metal-ceramic; Porosity; Satelliting; Titanium carbideAluminum alloys; Aluminum coatings; Annealing; Cermets; Coatings; Composite coatings; Deposition; Feedstocks; High strength alloys; Porosity; Titanium carbide; Wear of materials; Aluminium 6061; Cold spray; Deposition efficiencies; Dry sliding wear; Heat-treated coatings; Satelliting; Specific wear rates; Wear properties; After-heat treatmentEngineering and Physical Sciences Research Council, EPSRC: EP/L017482/1Huang, L., Geng, L., Discontinuously Reinforced Titanium Matrix Composites: Microstructure Design and Property Optimization (2017), Springer; Dasgupta, R., Aluminium alloy-based metal matrix composites: a potential material for wear resistant applications (2012) ISRN metallurgy, 2012; Gopalakrishnan, S., Murugan, N., Production and wear characterisation of AA 6061 matrix titanium carbide particulate reinforced composite by enhanced stir casting method (2012) Compos.

Rossin College of Engineering and Applied Science, Lehigh University, Bethlehem, PA 18015, United StatesSimulations have been conducted to quantify the effects of aspect ratio on the lift and drag coefficient for a finite plate near a free surface. Large eddy simulations using a VOF multiphase model were conducted for a plate length to height aspect ratio of 2.5, 5 and 10 for a Reynolds number of 50,000 and a Froude number of 1.3. Eulerian and Lagrangian coherent structures were employed to characterize the turbulent flow fields. As the aspect ratio increases, the mean drag coefficient decreases from 1.88 to 1.73. This is due to an increase in vortex activity caused by separation of the free shear layer at L/D of 5 and 10. Both the upstream and downstream region are affected by the hairpin-like vortices generated from the bursting of the free shear layer. With increasing plate length, Karman vortex shedding from the face near the free surface is suppressed, and the influence of tip vortices on the near wake flow is reduced. The aspect ratio has a strong influence on the free surface shape and dynamics because surface deflections increase with L/D. Free surface flows studied here provide valuable insight into designing off-shore structures, platforms, hydraulic and marine-current energy harvesting devices. © 2019 Elsevier LtdEulerian coherent structures; Free surface flows; Lagrangian coherent structures; Large eddy simulations; Multiphase flows; Vortex detectionDrag; Drag coefficient; Energy harvesting; Lagrange multipliers; Large eddy simulation; Lift drag ratio; Multiphase flow; Plates (structural components); Reynolds number; Shear flow; Vortex flow; Wakes; Coherent structure; Free surface shapes; Free-surface flow; Height aspect ratios; Karman vortex shedding; Lagrangian coherent structures; Lift and drag coefficients; Vortex detection; Aspect ratio; drag coefficient; Euler flow; flow field; flow modeling; free surface flow; Froude number; large eddy simulation; multiphase flow; Reynolds number; turbulent flow; vortex shedding; vorticity; wakeNational Science Foundation, NSF: TG-CTS170051This work used the Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery Environment (XSEDE) supported by National Science Foundation grant number TG-CTS170051 .

The result showed that low and high root zone heating decreased leaf area, total sugar and phenol content compared to root zone temperature 25°C (optimum), while main branches number, pH, E.C. and anthocyanin of fruit increased at high root zone temperature compared to low root zone temperature. Flavonoid increased under the root zone temperature of 20°C in comparison with temperatures 25 and 30°C, and stem diameter was not affected by root zone heating. Furthermore, salt stress at the level of 3 ds.m-1 increased stem diameter, total sugar, pH and EC of fruit, leaf area and phenol content, whereas salt stress at a high level (6 ds.m-1) increased flavonoid content.

O. BOX 2454, Ryad, 11451, Saudi ArabiaThe paper presents a new analytical method called the local fractional Laplace variational iteration method (LFLVIM), which is a combination of the local fractional Laplace transform (LFLT) and the local fractional variational iteration method (LFVIM), for solving the two-dimensional Helmholtz and coupled Helmholtz equations with local fractional derivative operators (LFDOs). The operators are taken in the local fractional sense. Two test problems are presented to demonstrate the efficiency and the accuracy of the proposed method. The approximate solutions obtained are compared with the results obtained by the local fractional Laplace decomposition method (LFLDM). The results reveal that the LFLVIM is very effective and convenient to solve linear and nonlinear PDEs. © 2019 by the authors.

The diverse and complex female endocrine disorder PCOS affects 1 in 15 women worldwide. PCOS produces symptoms in approximately 5% to 10% of women of reproductive age 12– 45 years old. Abnormal menstrual cycle might be the most common symptom. The present study is designed to determine the levels of trace element concentrations (Zn, pb, Ni, and Fe) in PCO patients by atomic absorption spectroscopy. Some vitamins and mineral can play role in improvement of PCOS. All the measurements were occurred in the plasma ofthe patients.

Contrasted with conventional techniques for article identification and arrangement, Machine learning strategies are another idea in the field of PC vision. Our model works in two phases: an information planning step, it comprises of applying Treatments on the pictures forming the dataset so as to separate the qualities, the subsequent advance is to apply the idea of convolutional neural systems to order vehicles. Vehicle discovery permits the utilization of different uses of computerized reasoning framework for a few purposes, particularly: canny transportation, programmed checking, self-sufficient driving, and driver wellbeing ensure. The motivation behind this article is to enable us to identify vehicles moving before us by means of a camera put under the rearview mirror and draw the direction lines of our vehicle. In this work, we center on the location and acknowledgment of vehicles in a video stream. We have demonstrated that our strategy for work extraordinarily improves the exactness rate and diminishes the mistake rate, however in spite of the utilization of regularization, institutionalization and advancement systems, the preparation time of our model remains an issue to raise. Our method gave better results in terms of precision, detection and classification where we obtained an accuracy of 99.2%. © 2017 American Psychological Association.Classification; Deep learning; Machine learning; Pre-trained models; Recognition; Vehicle detectionChabot, F., Chaouch, M., Rabarisoa, J., Chateau, T., Trulière, C., Déte cti on de pose de véhi cule pour la reconnais sance de marque et modèle (2015) Journée s francophone s des jeune s chercheurs en vision par ordinateur; Koga, Y., Miyazaki, H., Shibasaki, R., A CNN-Based Method of Vehicle Detection from Aerial Images Using Hard Example Mining (2018) Remote Sen s ing, 10, p. 124; Yang, M.Y., Liao, W., Li, X., Rosenhahn, B., (2018) Vehicle Detection in Aerial Images, , https://arxiv.org/abs/1801.07339; Zhou, Y., Nejati, H., Do, T.T., Cheung, N.M., Cheah, L., Image-based vehicle analysis using deep neural network: A systematic study Digital Signal Processing (DSP), 2016 IEEE International Conference, pp. 276-280. , IEEE; Mengxi, W., (2017) Real time vehicle detection using YOLO, , www.medium.org, The Medium website; Durakovic, B., Torlak, M., Simulation and experimental vali dation of phase change material and water used heat medium in window applications (2017) Jornal of Materials and Environmental Sciences, 8 (5), pp. 1837-1846; Palalic, R., Durakovic, B., Brankovic, A., Ridic, O., Students' Entrepreneurial Orientation Intention, Business Enviroment, and Networking:Insight from Bosnia and Herzogvina (2016) Students' Entrepreneurial Orientation Intention, Business Environment, and Networking: Insights from Bosnia and Herzegovina, 11 (4), pp. 240-255; Durakovic, B., Basic, H., Continuous Quality Improvement in Textile Processing by Statistical Process Control Tools: A Case Study of Medium-Sized C p ny (2013) Periodicals of Engineering and Natural Sciences, 1 (1), pp. 39-47; Petrovic, D., Basic, H., Durakovic, B., Prodanovic, S., Science-Technology Park Ilidza as a Generator of Innovation Potential and SME's Development in Bosnia and Herzegovina (2013) Periodicals of Engineering and Natural Sciences, 1 (2), pp. 51-55; Xiang, W., Tran, H.D., Johnson, T.T., (2017) Reachable Set Computation and Safety Verification for Neural Networks with ReLU Activations, , https://arxiv.org/abs/1712.08163; Kanestrøm, P.O., Traffic flow forecasting with deep learning (2017) Norwegian Unive rs ity of Science and Technology, , MS thesis, NTNU; Budhiraja, A., Dropout in (Deep) Machine learning, 2016. , www.medium.org, (Dec).

The mathematical calculations and system simulation are performed for a converter with nominal power of 400 MW and 400KV DC. The characteristic of Swiss rectifier including the operation principle, modulation strategy and relevant equations are described in detail. The MMC is used as a combination with Swiss rectifier because of its simplicity to be integrated for applications that required different level of voltages and currents, such as offshore wind turbine. Where, there is a trend to generate the electricity and transmit it in DC form due to its economic reasons. Therefore, the usage of MMC-Swiss rectifier is viable for High Voltage Direct Current HVDC applications. The contribution of Swiss rectifier is to make the current drawn from the supply by a converter, pure sinusoidal and this achieved by injecting third harmonic current in the circulating current from the DC side. Thus, this would reduce the THD and improve the power quality of the AC side currents. © 2017 American Psychological Association.Modular Multilevel Converter; Swiss rectifier; Third harmonic injection; Voltage Source Converter HVDCSoeiro, B., Vancu, F., Kolar, J.W., Hybrid Active Third-Harmonic Current Injection Mains Interface Concept for DC Distribution Systems (2013) Power Electronics, 28 (1), pp. 7-13. , IEEE Transactions on Jan; Soeiro, B., Kolar, J.W., Friedli, T., Swiss rectifier-A novel three-phase buck-type PFC topology for Electric Vehicle battery charging (2012) Applied Power Electronics Conference and Exposition (APEC), pp. 2617-2624. , 2012 Twenty-Seventh Annual IEEE, Feb; Rajapakse, A.D., Gole, A.M., Wilson, P.L., Electromagnetic transients simulation models for accurate representation of switching losses and thermal performance in power electronic systems (2005) Power Delivery, 20 (1), pp. 319-327. , IEEE Transactions on, Jan; Kolar, J.W., Friedli, T., The Essense of Three-Phase PFC Rectifier Systems (2011) Proc. 33rd IEEE Int.

Although Fresh garlic juice (GJ) and Garlic oil (GO) were reported to possess antibacterial activity, the mechanism that underlay the garlic antimicrobial activity still obscure. Method: The hypothesis of my study is to examine the antimicrobial activities of GJ and GO and the combination of either GJ or GO with Amp and CF, respectively. Results: In my current project, the antibacterial activity of GJ was found to be significant in reducing the bacterial protein synthesis against E.coli, while GO negatively correlated; but, unfortunately, did not reach the significant level. Moreover, GJ and GO were correlated with improvement of the sensitivity of bacteria to antibiotics. Conclusion: further investigation of the potency of GJ and GO in treating the infections is highly needed. © 2019, Indian Journal of Public Health Research and Development.

The main threat to the trusted communication channel of exchange information is a potential attacker who randomly generates and transmits messages to the receiver, that may be mistakenly perceived as an authenticated source. This article discusses an authentication method based on a modified one-time password method, in which the decision on the legality of the received message is made not only on the basis of the content of its verification sequence but also on the basis of the history of the received verification messages. The parameters of the algorithm for generating authenticated data are analyzed, the influence of these parameters on the probability of authentication errors in the communication channel is investigated. © 2019 IEEE.authentication control; one-time password method; probability calculationCommunication channels (information theory); Electronic data interchange; Authentication methods; One time passwords; Probability calculations; Trusted communications; AuthenticationMcGrew, D., Viega, J., The security and performance of the galois=counter mode (gcm) of operation (2004) Proc., Indocrypt, pp. 343-355; Voydock, V., Kent, S., Security mechanisms in high-level network protocols (1983) Computing Surveys, pp. 135-171; Tanygin, M.O., Detection during program control of device operation of commands issued by unauthorized programs "information security (2005) Optoelectronic Devices and Devices in Systems of Pattern Recognition, Image Processing and Symbolic Information, pp. 202-203; Tanygin, M.O., Calculation of the probability of occurrence of collisions using the message authentication control algorithm (2012) Kursk: Izvestiya of Southwest State University, 2, pp. 179-183; Tanygin, M.O., Method of control of data transmitted between software and hardware (2010) Computer Science and Engineering, pp. 344-345; Tipikin, A.P., Tanygin, M.O., Methods of authentication of information protection systems and controlling software (2007) Telecommunications and Radio Engineering, 66 (5), pp. 453-463; Tanygin, M.O., Tipikin, A.P., Marking controller of hard disk drive (2005) Proc. of the Higher Educational Institutions.

These containers were immersed in the transformer oil. A 100 kVA transformer was used as a model for study because these transformers are widely used in the electricity distribution network in Iraq. As temperature rises, the phase change material (paraffin wax) absorbs heat and melts inside the containers at a constant temperature. This feature can be utilized to store heat for a period until the temperature for weather drops; then this heat is rejected, and the wax begins to solidify. In this experiment, five containers were used, each containing 2 kg of wax. The results showed a clear decrease in the temperature of the oil, which led to the enhancment of its thermal insulation and kept the oil from failure and the preserved the transformer from breakdown. The results showed that the reduction in temperature is approximately 7°C and the reduction increased upon increasing the amount of wax added. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.cooling performance; distribution transformer; electrical transformer; experimental investigation; paraffin wax; phase change material; transformer oilContainers; Electric utilities; Insulating oil; Oil filled transformers; Paraffin waxes; Paraffins; Thermal insulation; Constant temperature; Cooling performance; Distribution transformer; Electrical distribution; Electrical transformers; Electricity distribution networks; Experimental investigations; Thermal Performance; Phase change materialsAj, C., Salam, M.A., Rahman, Q.M., Wen, F., Ang, S.P., Voon, W., Causes of transformer failures and diagnostic methods–A review (2018) Renew Sust Energ Rev, 82, pp. 1442-1456. , Part 1; Meshkatoddini, M.R., Aging study and lifetime estimation of transformer mineral oil (2008) Am J Eng Appl Sci, 1 (4), pp. 384-388; Fonte, C.M., Lopes, J.C.B., Dias, M.M., Sousa, R.G., Campelo, H.M., Lopes, R.C., CFD analysis of core type power transformers (2011) 21St International Conference on Electrical Distribution, , Frankfurt, Germany; Hashmi, M., Lehtonen, M., Hänninen, S., Effect of climate change on transformers loading conditions in the future smart grid environment (2013) Open J Appl Sci, 3, pp. 24-29; Thomas, J., Srivatsa, P.V.S.S., Ramesh Krishnan, S., Baby, R., Thermal performance evaluation of a phase change material based heat sink: a numerical study (2016) Procedia Technol, 25, pp. 1182-1190; Hasan, M.I., Using the transformer oil-based nanofluid for cooling of power distribution transformer (2017) Int J Energ Environ, 8 (3), pp. 229-238; Hasan, M.I., Improving the cooling performance of electrical distribution transformer using transformer oil–Based MEPCM suspension (2017) Eng Sci Technol Int J, 20 (2), pp. 502-510; Hasan, M.I., Tbena, H.L., Using of phase change materials to enhance the thermal performance of micro channel heat sink (2018) Eng Sci Technol Int J, 21 (3), pp. 517-526; Hasan, M.I., Tbena, H.L., (2018), pp. 205-209. , Enhancing the cooling performance of micro pin fin heat sink by using the phase change materials with different configurations., Advance of Sustainable Engineering and its Application, ICASEA, 2018 International Conference on IEEE; Hasan, M.I., Basher, H.O., Shdhan, A.O., Experimental investigation of phase change materials for insulation of residential buildings (2018) Sustain Cities Soc, 36, pp. 42-58; Kandasamy, R., Wang, X.-Q., Mujumdar, A.S., Transient cooling of electronics using phase change material (PCM)-based heat sink (2008) Appl Therm Eng, 28, pp. 1047-1057; Oró, E., de Gracia, A., Castell, A., Farid, M.M., Cabeza, L.F., Review on phase change materials (PCMs) for cold thermal energy storage applications (2012) Appl Energy, 99, pp. 513-533; Sciacovelli, A., Gagliardi, F., Verda, V., Maximization of performance of a PCM latent heat storage system with innovative fins (2015) Appl Energy, 137, pp. 707-715Hasan, M.I.; Mechanical Engineering Department, Iraq; email: mushtaq76h@gmail.comJohn Wiley and Sons Inc10992871HTARFEnglishHeat Transf.

Developing an artificial intelligence system that can adequately identify these affected regions can support the clinical diagnosis of brain disease. In this study, we develop a new model called a fractal dimension (FD) of the undirected graph (NG) based on a sine cosine driven support vector machine (FD-NG model utilising the SCA-SVM) algorithm for identifying the focal and non-focal EEG signals. Each EEG signal is partitioned into its respective segments and each segment is divided into clusters using a sliding window technique. To reduce the dimensionality of each cluster, a set of best features is extracted. Three types of input features are considered: linear features (LF), statistical features (SF), and features based on time domain (TD). These are investigated and extracted from each cluster. As a result, each EEG signal is represented by a series of reduced segments and is then forwarded to the proposed FD-NG based SCA-SVM model. The model considers each segment as a node and a link is built between each pair of nodes based on their degree of similarity. The FD of graphs are used as inputs to the SCA-SVM model to classify the EEG signal into FC and NFC components. The obtained results, which also demonstrates the practicality of the approach, confirm that the proposed model surpasses the performance of existing state-of- the-art techniques. © 2019 Elsevier LtdCorrelation graphs; Focal EEG signals; Fractal dimension; Non-focal EEG signals; SCA-SVMElectroencephalography; Electrophysiology; Finite difference method; Fractal dimension; Graph algorithms; Graphic methods; Support vector machines; Time domain analysis; Artificial intelligence systems; Correlation graphs; Degree of similarity; EEG signals; SCA-SVM; Sliding window techniques; State-of-the-art techniques; Support vector machine models; Biomedical signal processing; algorithm; Article; artificial intelligence; clinical article; drug resistant epilepsy; electroencephalography; entropy; human; parameters; priority journal; signal detection; support vector machine; temporal lobe epilepsyCho, D., Min, B., Kim, J., Lee, B., EEG-based prediction of epileptic seizures using phase synchronization elicited from noise-assisted multivariate empirical mode decomposition (2017) IEEE Trans.

The five cities are namely: Al-Nassriya, Al-Shatra, Al-Rifai, Suk Al-Shoyokh, and Al-Chibayish. In general, the results revealed that the average generation rate of domestic solid waste was 0.85 Kg/capita/day in the study area. The organic waste was found the major components of municipal waste and it exceeded 60% of waste composition. All dumping sites in the aforementioned cities are uncontrolled dumpsite, their design not suitable, and do not work according to proper operating standards. There are no landfills or dumping sites specified for disposal the non-municipal waste. The investigations showed the presence of potential health risks and negative environmental aspects of solid waste handling in Thi-Qar governorate due to improper handling of collection, transfer, and disposal of solid waste. Thus, developing a master plan for integrated solid waste management is prerequisite to overcome the difficulties solid waste management sector in Thi-Qar governorate. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Environmental technology; Governors; Health risks; Solid wastes; Average generation; Domestic solid wastes; Environmental aspects; Integrated solid waste managements; Municipal waste; Operating standards; Potential health risks; Waste composition; Waste disposalBundhoo, Z.M., Solid waste management in least developed countries: Current status and challenges faced (2018) Journal of Material Cycles and Waste Management, 21, pp. 1-11; Hering, J.G., An end to waste?

An amperometric glucose biosensor was fabricated by the immobilization of glucose oxidase (GOx) onto the synthesised PAA-VS-PANI/GPL-FePc-CH (where VS-PANI is vinyl substituted polyaniline). Scanning electron microscopy reveals the presence of three dimensional microporous structure with estimated pore size of 19 μm. The 5-(trifluoromethyl)-2-mercaptopyridine substitution onto FePc enabled the solubility of FePc in water and controls the aggregation of GPL-FePc in the synthesised CH. A sharp peak around 699 nm in UV–visible spectra confirms the presence of incorporated GPL-FePc into CH. Cyclic voltammogram of the synthesised CH biosensor exhibited well defined redox peaks with a ΔEp value of 0.26 V in Fe(CN)6 3-/4- bench mark solution. The fabricated PAA-VS-PANI/GPL-FePc/GOx-CH amperometric biosensor resulted in remarkable detection sensitivity of 18.11 μA mM−1 cm−2 with an average response time of ∼1 s, linearity from 1 to 20 mM, and low detection limit of 6.4 μM for the determination of glucose. © 2019 Elsevier B.V.Conducting hydrogel; Glucose biosensor; Graphene nanoplatelets (GPL); Water-soluble iron phthalocyanineBiosensors; Glucose; Glucose oxidase; Glucose sensors; Graphene; Hydrogels; Iron; Polyaniline; Pore size; Scanning electron microscopy; Amperometric biosensors; Conducting hydrogels; Detection sensitivity; Glucose biosensor; Glucose oxidases (GOx); Graphene nanoplatelets; Micro-porous structure; Watersoluble; Iron compounds; 5 (trifluoromethyl) 2 mercaptopyridine; glucose oxidase; graphene; phthalocyanine; polyacrylic acid; pyridine derivative; unclassified drug; carbon nanotube; glucose; glucose oxidase; graphite; immobilized enzyme; Article; cyclic potentiometry; dispersity; enzyme immobilization; glucose assay; hydrogel; limit of detection; nanoanalysis; nanofabrication; pore size; reaction time; scanning electron microscopy; sensitivity analysis; solubility; substitution reaction; surface area; synthesis; three dimensional imaging; ultraviolet visible spectroscopy; chemistry; genetic procedures; human; hydrogel; isolation and purification; Biosensing Techniques; Enzymes, Immobilized; Glucose; Glucose Oxidase; Graphite; Humans; Hydrogels; Nanotubes, Carbonglucose oxidase, 9001-37-0; phthalocyanine, 574-93-6; polyacrylic acid, 74350-43-9, 87003-46-1, 9003-01-4, 9003-04-7; glucose, 50-99-7, 84778-64-3; graphite, 7782-42-5; Enzymes, Immobilized; Glucose; Glucose Oxidase; Graphite; Hydrogels; Nanotubes, Carbon0300-2016-0007; Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, MOHESR; Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, MHE&SRHadi Al-Sagur acknowledges the financial support provided for his research from the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research (MOHESR) and the College of Medicine/Thi Qar University southern of Iraq.

Depending on the relative strength of three competing terms such as diffusion, advection or absorption, the interface may shrink, expand or remain stationary. In this paper we focus only on two cases when the diffusion dominates and the interface expands and the other case when absorption term dominates and the interface shrinks. The significant methods that we used are rescaling and blow-up techniques. © 2019 Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.interfaces; nonlinear degenerate parabolic PDEs; nonlinear scaling methodsDiffusion in liquids; Interfaces (materials); Linear equations; Compactly supported; Initial development; Initial functions; Non-linear scaling; Nonlinear reaction; Nonlinear reaction-diffusion equations; Parabolic PDEs; Relative strength; Nonlinear equationsAal-Rkhais, H.A., (2018) On the Qualitative Theory of the Nonlinear Degenerate Second Order Parabolic Equations Modeling Reaction-Diffusion-Convection Processes, , (Florida, USA: FIT); Abdulla, U.G., Reaction-Diffusion in Irregular Domains (2000) Journal of Differential Equations, 164 (2), pp. 321-354; Abdulla, U.G., King, J.R., Interface Development and Local Solutions to Reaction-Diffusion Equations (2000) SIAM J.

Also in recent years, in 1988, a new cardiac natriuretic peptide [B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP)] with excellent diagnostic characteristics was discovered. Wherefore, in the next years was appeared to have prognostic properties and later likewise seemed to have symptomatic properties in the out-patient settings and emergency department. In this research we completed work with participants, part of them patients with heart failure to varying degrees and another part do not suffer from heart failure to be a control group on which to build the results of the research. We pulled the blood from them, turned it to serum, estimated concentrations of certain chemical agents that are under research such as (BNP, hs-CRP, T-Chol, HDL-cholesterol, TG, LDL-cholesterol and VLDL-cholesterol) and compared these concentrations with another factor (EF %). Generally, we found a clear increase in concentrations of BNP and hs-CRP (Percentage increase in BNP and hs-CRP concentration level is estimated at 497%, 332% which is 5, 3.32 times as much as the BNP and hs-CRP concentration in control group D respectively), with the greater decline in the value of EF%. As well as compared to other factors (Percentage increase in T-Chol, TG, LDL-cholesterol, VLDL-cholesterol and percentage decrease in HDL-cholesterol,). Therefore, the BNP and hs-CRP are the two best factors of the total factors studied in the research to diagnose heart failure disease. © 2019, Indian Journal of Public Health Research and Development.

Immune modulation in the host by parasitic antigens is an integral part of this disease. The current study attempts to dissect the immune responses of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (AARS) with emphasis on Brugia malayi asparaginyl-tRNA synthetase (BmAsnRS), since it is one among the highly expressed excretory/secretory proteins expressed in all stages of the parasite life cycle, whereas its role in filarial pathology has not been elaborately studied. Methods and Results: In this study, recombinant BmAsnRS (rBmAsnRS) immunological effects were studied in semipermissive filarial animal model Balb/c mice and on clinically defined human samples for LF. In mice study, humoral responses showed considerable titer levels with IgG2a isotype followed by IgG2b and IgG1. Immunoreactivity studies with clinical samples showed significant humoral responses especially in endemic normal with marked levels of IgG1 and IgG2 followed by IgG3. The cell-mediated immune response, evaluated by splenocytes and peripheral blood mononuclear cells proliferation, did not yield significant difference when compared with control groups. Cytokine profiling and qRT-PCR analysis of mice samples immunized with rBmAsnRS showed elevated levels of IFN-γ, IL-10, inhibitory factor-cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated protein-A (CTLA-4) and Treg cell marker-Forkhead Box P3 (FoxP3). Conclusions: These observations suggest that rBmAsnRS has immunomodulatory effects with modified Th2 response along with suppressed cellular proliferation indicating the essence of this molecule for immune evasion by the parasite. © 2019, Mary Ann Liebert, Inc.aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase; filarial asparaginyl tRNA synthetase; human samples; immune modulation; lymphatic filariasisamino acid transfer RNA ligase; asparagine; asparagine transfer RNA ligase; cytokine; cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4; gamma interferon; immunoglobulin G1; immunoglobulin G2a; immunoglobulin G2b; immunoglobulin G3; interleukin 10; recombinant enzyme; secretory protein; transcription factor FOXP3; unclassified drug; aminoacyl transfer RNA; asparaginyl-tRNA synthetase; aspartate transfer RNA ligase; cytokine; immunoglobulin G; parasite antigen; recombinant protein; animal experiment; animal model; Article; Bagg albino mouse; Brugia malayi; cell proliferation; cellular immunity; controlled study; endemic disease; human; humoral immunity; immunomodulation; immunoreactivity; life cycle; lymphatic filariasis; mouse; nonhuman; peripheral blood mononuclear cell; priority journal; protein expression; regulatory T lymphocyte; reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction; spleen cell; animal; Brugia malayi; cytology; disease model; enzymology; female; genetics; host parasite interaction; immunology; isolation and purification; lymphatic filariasis; metabolism; mononuclear cell; parasitology; spleen; T lymphocyte subpopulation; Animals; Antigens, Helminth; Aspartate-tRNA Ligase; Brugia malayi; Cytokines; Disease Models, Animal; Elephantiasis, Filarial; Female; Host-Parasite Interactions; Humans; Immunoglobulin G; Leukocytes, Mononuclear; Mice; Mice, Inbred BALB C; Recombinant Proteins; RNA, Transfer, Amino Acyl; Spleen; T-Lymphocyte Subsetsamino acid transfer RNA ligase, 9028-02-8; asparagine, 70-47-3, 7006-34-0; gamma interferon, 82115-62-6; aspartate transfer RNA ligase, 9027-32-1; immunoglobulin G, 97794-27-9; Antigens, Helminth; asparaginyl-tRNA synthetase; Aspartate-tRNA Ligase; Cytokines; Immunoglobulin G; Recombinant Proteins; RNA, Transfer, Amino AcylMinistry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, MHE&SR; Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, MHESR; Indian Council for Cultural Relations, ICCRThe research work was conducted with the help of equipment procured under MHRD-CEMA F.NO-5-3/2015-TS VII and BUILDER BT/PR12153/INF/22/200/2014 programs.

Received Signal Strength (RSS)-based fingerprinting approaches have been widely used for positioning inside buildings because they have a distinct advantage of low cost over other indoor positioning techniques. The signal power RSS is a function of the distance between the Mobile System (MS) and Access Point (AP), which varies due to the multipath propagation phenomenon and human body blockage. Furthermore, fingerprinting approaches have several disadvantages such as labor cost, diversity (in signals and environment), and computational cost. Eliminating redundancy by ruling out non-informative APs not only reduces the computation time, but also improves the performance of IPS. In this article, we propose a dimensionality reduction technique in a multiple service set identifier-based indoor positioning system with Multiple Service Set Identifiers (MSSIDs), which means that each AP can be configured to transmit N signals instead of one signal, to serve different kinds of clients simultaneously. Therefore, we investigated various kinds of approaches for the selection of informative APs such as spatial variance, strongest APs, and random selection. These approaches were tested using two clustering techniques including K-means and Fuzzy C-means. Performance evaluation was focused on two elements, the number of informative APs versus the accuracy of the proposed system. To assess the proposed system, real data was acquired from within the College of Engineering and Applied Sciences (CEAS) at the Western Michigan University (WMU) building. The results exhibit the superiority of fused Multiple Service Set Identifiers (MSSID) performance over the single SSID. Moreover, the results report that the proposed system achieves a positioning accuracy < 0.85 m over 3000 m2, with an accumulative density function (CDF) of 88% with a distance error of 2 m. © 2019 by the authors.Access Point Selection; C-Means; Indoor Positioning System; K-Means; RSS-fingerprint; WLANZakavat, S.A., Buehrer, R.M., (2011) Handbook of Position Location: Theory, Practice, and Advances, , John, W.S., Ed.; IEEE Press: Hoboken, NJ, USA; Gu, Y., Lo, A., Niemegeers, I., A survey of indoor positioning systems for wireless personal networks (2009) IEEE Commun.

I investigated the synchronization quality by using the rate equations model. In both open-loop system and closed-loop system, the direct current modulation in transmitter laser and receiver laser has significant effects on the correlation coefficient. In both cases, we can use the direct current modulation to minimize the effect of mismatch in delay times on the synchronization quality. Also, the effect of modulation frequency in lasers has been analyzed. The correlation coefficient has a high value with increasing the modulation frequency in both lasers. Furthermore, the present results indicate that the correlation coefficient tends to high values at the negative value of the difference in the modulation frequency between the lasers in comparison with the positive value of the difference. The correlation coefficient has different behaviors when the delay time in transmitter laser is larger than the delay time in receiver laser or vice versa. © 2019, Shiraz University.Direct current modulation; Negative optoelectronic feedback; Quantum cascade lasers; Rate equation model; SynchronizationChan, S.C., Liu, J.M., Microwave frequency division and multiplication using an optically injected semiconductor laser (2005) IEEE J Quantum Electron, 41, pp. 1142-1147; Faist, J., Capasso, F., Sivco, D.L., Sirtori, C., Hutchinson, A.L., Cho, A.Y., Quantum cascade laser (1994) Science, 264, pp. 553-556; Farias, B., De Silans, T.P., Chevrollier, M., Oria, M., Frequency bistability of a semiconductor laser under a frequency-dependent feedback (2005) Phys Rev Lett, 94 (902), pp. 1-4; Fischer, I., Liu, Y., Davis, P., Synchronization of chaotic semiconductor laser dynamics on subnanosecond time scales and its potential for chaos communication (2000) Phys Rev A, 62 (11801), pp. 1-4; Hwang, S., Liu, J., Attractors and basins of the locking–unlocking bistability in a semiconductor laser subject to strong optical injection (1999) Opt Commun, 169, pp. 167-176; Kohler, R., Tredicucci, A., Beltram, F., Beere, H.E., Linfield, E.H., Davies, A.G., Ritchie, D.A., Rossi, F., Terahertz semiconductor-heterostructure laser (2002) Nature, 417 (6885), pp. 156-159; Kusumoto, K., Ohtsubo, J., 1.5-GHz message transmission based on synchronization of chaos in semiconductor lasers (2002) Opt Lett, 27, pp. 989-991; Larger, L., Goedgebuer, J.-P., Delorme, F., Optical encryption system using hyperchaos generated by an optoelectronic wavelength oscillator (1998) Phys Rev E, 57, pp. 6618-6624; Lee, C.H., Shin, S.Y., Self-pulsing, spectral bistability, and chaos in a semiconductor laser diode with optoelectronic feedback (1993) Appl Phys Lett, 62, pp. 922-924; Lin, F.Y., Liu, J.M., Nonlinear dynamics of a semiconductor laser with delayed negative optoelectronic feedback (2003) IEEE J Quantum Electron, 39, pp. 562-568; Nizette, M., Erneus, T., Gavrielides, A., Kovanis, V., Simpson, T., Bistability of pulsating intensities for double-locked laser diodes (2002) Phys Rev E, 65 (56610), pp. 1-5; Ohtsubo, J., (2012) Semiconductor lasers: stability, instability and chaos, , Springer, Berlin; Rajesh, S., Nandakumaran, V., Control of bistability in a directly modulated semiconductor laser using delayed optoelectronic feedback (2006) Phys D, 213, pp. 113-120; Sivaprakasam, S., Shore, K., Signal masking for chaotic optical communication using external-cavity diode lasers (1999) Opt Lett, 24, pp. 1200-1202; Takiguchi, Y., Fujino, H., Ohtsubo, J., Experimental synchronization of chaotic oscillations in externally injected semiconductor lasers in a low-frequency fluctuation regime (1999) Opt Lett, 24, pp. 1570-1572; Tang, S., Liu, J., Chaotic pulsing and quasi-periodic route to chaos in a semiconductor laser with delayed opto-electronic feedback (2001) IEEE J Quantum Electron, 37, pp. 329-336; Turovets, S., Dellunde, J., Shore, K., Nonlinear dynamics of a laser diode subjected to both optical and electronic feedback (1997) J Opt Soc Am B, 14, pp. 200-208; Vicente, R., Tang, S., Mulet, J., Mirasso, C.R., Liu, J.M., Synchronization properties of two self-oscillating semiconductor lasers subject to delayed optoelectronic mutual coupling (2006) Phys Rev E, 73 (47201), pp. 1-4; Vitiello, M.S., Tredicucci, A., Tunable emission in THz quantum cascade lasers (2011) IEEE Trans Terahertz Sci Technol, 1, pp. 76-84; Waried, H., Modulation response and relative intensity noise spectra in quantum cascade lasers (2017) Phys Chem Res, 5, pp. 377-394; Waried, H., Synchronization of quantum cascade lasers with negative optoelectronic feedback (2018) Rec Adv Electr Electron Eng, 11, pp. 167-175; Waried, H.H., Synchronization of quantum cascade lasers with mutual optoelectronic coupling (2018) Chin J Phys, 56, pp. 1113-1120; Williams, B.S., Terahertz quantum-cascade lasers (2007) Nat Photon, 1, p. 517; Xia, G.Q., Wu, Z.M., Jia, X.H., Theoretical investigation on commanding the bistability and self-pulsation of bistable semiconductor laser diode using delayed optoelectronic feedback (2005) J Lightw Technol, 23, pp. 4296-4304Waried, H.H.; Physics Department, Iraq; email: hussein.hadi@sci.utq.edu.iqSpringer International Publishing10286276EnglishIran.

This paper presents an attempt to study the possibility of combining the external confinement using reinforcing rings and the internal stiffening using reinforcing bars for strengthening CFST columns. In order to investigate the structural performance of the proposed combination method, a total of 18 specimens were tested under axial compression. These specimens were strengthened using three different methods: confinement in the form of external reinforcing rings (ERRs), stiffening in the form of internal reinforcing bars (IRBs), and a combination of both methods. For all tested specimens, the thickness of steel tube, outer diameter, and tube length were 4.15 mm, 114.3 mm, and 260 mm, respectively. CFST specimens were filled using self-compacting concrete (SCC) of normal compressive strength. The main parameters considered in the test procedure are the spacing between the ERRs, the number of IRBs, and a combination of the ERRs spacing and the number of IRBs. The experimental results show that the proposed combination method is more effective to improve the structural performance of short CFST columns compared to using only ERRs or IRBs. Further improvement is achieved when the spacing between the ERRs decreases and the number of IRBs increases. The proposed combination method increases the compressive load-carrying capacity up to 27.2% and 57.4% compared to ERRs and IRBs, respectively. It deserves noting that the proposed combination method, ERRs, and IRBs improve the compressive load-carrying capacity up to 120.3%, 93.5%, and 40%, respectively, compared to the control specimen. In addition, specimens strengthened by the proposed combination method show an excellent ductility behavior. © 2019 Institution of Structural EngineersAxial stiffness; Axial strength; Concrete-filled steel tube;

Cholera infection is outbreaks in Iraq as reported for several years. The recent cholera outbreak, emerged throughout 2015-2016, was investigated by using bacteriological laboratory tests, singleplex and multiplex PCR technique for the detection of V. cholerae from stool samples. Furthermore the antibiotic susceptibility test for cholera was also investigated coupled with the toxigenic potential. A total of Twenty Vibrio cholerae isolates were isolated from diarrheal patients in Thi-Qar province. These isolates were diagnosis by conventional biochemical test, API20 E system and molecular methods by using 16SrRNA. The isolates were characterized for gene traits; antimicrobial susceptibility. The results appeared all 20 isolates were positive for 16S rRNA. Multiplex PCR analysis revealed that 65%, 35% and 15% of isolates were positive for tox R, tcp and ctx B genes respectively. The antimicrobial susceptibility testing to isolates revealed high levels of resistance to ampicillin (100%), nalidixic acid (90%), sulfamethoxazoletrimethoprim (80%), tetracycline and ciprofloxacin (55%) and chloramphenicol (45%) in addition to increase the prevalence of multidrug resistant (MDR) between Vibrio cholerae isolates. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Antibiotics; Diagnosis; Genes; Microorganisms; Polymerase chain reaction; RNA; Antibiotic susceptibility tests; Antimicrobial susceptibility; Antimicrobial susceptibility testing; Biochemical tests; Laboratory test; Molecular detection; Molecular methods; Multidrug resistants; DiseasesKaper, J.B., Jgjr, M., Levine, M.M., (1995) Cholera.

This study tends to evaluate the role of BNP as a predictor of left ventricular function among patient with chronic renal failure on maintenance hemodialysis. Methods: This is a perspective cross-sectional study, including 89 (45 males and 44 females) patients on maintenance hemodialysis followed up for six months. BNP level, glomerular filtration and body mass index of the patients were measured and left ventricular function (EF%) was detected by echocardiography at the start of the study and after three and six months between October 2016 and April 2017.Results:Of 89 patients, 13 were underweight, 56 had a healthy weight, and 20 were overweight. There was a significant negative association between BNP level and both EF% and BMI (P<0.001, P<0.001) respectively. During the follow up of these patients there was a clear trend for BNP to be higher among patients with impaired left the ventricular function. There was also a strong inverse association between BNP level and GFR (P <0.001).Conclusion: BNP levels show a strong inverse association with EF%, BMI and GFR in patients with CRF. Currently, BNP widely used by most health institutions to predict left ventricular function. However, both BMI and GFR considered a significant confounder of BNP measurement in patients with compromised renal status. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Dialysis; Echocardiography; Function evaluation; Hemodialyzers; Maintenance; Peptides; Body mass index; Brain natriuretic peptide; Chronic renal failure; Cross-sectional study; Glomerular filtration; Left ventricles; Left ventricular function; Ventricular functions; HealthWoodard, G.E., Rosado, J.A., Natriuretic peptides in vascular physiology and pathology (2008) Int Rev Cell Mol Biol., 268, pp. 59-93; Angela Yee-Moon, W., Kar-Neng, L., Use of Cardiac Biomarkers in End-Stage Renal Disease (1652) JASN September 2008, 19, p. 1643; Jae Won, Y., Min Soo, K., Jae Seok, K., (2008) Korean J Intern Med., 23 (4), pp. 191-200. , Dec; Renal Data System, U.S., Usrds, Annual Data Report, Bethesda, National Institutes of Health (1999) National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, 1999, pp. 1-3; Hall, J.E., Henegar, J.R., Dwyer, T.M., Liu, J., Da Silva, A.A., Kuo, J.J., Hallam, L., Is obesity a major cause of chronic kidney disease?

Rehabilitation includes time consuming and repetitive exercises which are costly and demotivating as well as the requirements of clinic attending and direct supervision of physiotherapist. In this work, the system consists of a graphical user interface (GUI) on a smartphone screen to instruct and motivate the patients to do their exercises by themselves. Through the GUI, the patients are instructed to do a sequence of exercises step by step, and the system measures the electrical activities (electromyographic signals EMG) of the user's forearm muscles by Myo armband. Depending on database, the system can tell whether the patients have done correct movements or not. If a correct movement is detected, the system will inform the user through the GUI and move to the next exercise. For preliminary results, the system was extensively tested on a healthy person. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Graphical user interfaces; Wearable technology; Electrical activities; Electromyographic signal; Graphical user interfaces (GUI); Hand rehabilitation; Healthy persons; Paralyzed patients; Portable system; Rehabilitation System; Patient rehabilitationJarrasśe, N., Proietti, T., Crocher, V., Robertson, J., Sahbani, A., Morel, G., Roby-Brami, A., Robotic exoskeletons: A perspective for the rehabilitation of arm coordination in stroke patients (2014) Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 8; Mulas, M., Folgheraiter, M., Gini, G., An emg-controlled exoskeleton for hand rehabilitation (2005) Rehabilitation Robotics, 2005.

Use disintegrant is considered one of corner stone to achieve pharmaceutical tablets that meet requirements of recommended tablet formulation in the markets. Sodium Starch Glycolate as an elastic material (super disintegrant) is the component of compacted tablets by direct compression in current work. Uniaxial compaction process was implemented by utilizing a universal testing machine. The tablets were compacted under applied load ranging from 75 to 375 MPa. A 13 mm diameter cylindrical die was used to characterize the compression behaviour of the 1.0 ± 0.01 g of material. Number of the evidences from this study is, the tabletted powder characteristics and the volume-pressure measurements relationship were investigated. The recommended tablet formulations were evaluated by using elastic relaxation, indirect tensile strength, friability, and disintegration tests. Applying load higher than 150 Mpa produces compacts with a longer disintegration time, low elastic relaxation, in addition to tensile strength and friability percentage identical to recommended tablets formulation in the markets. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.direct compression (DC); disintegration; pharmaceutical tablets; SSG; tensile strengthCommerce; Disintegration; Relaxation processes; Sodium; Starch; Compression behaviours; Direct compression; Essential characteristic; Indirect tensile strength; Pharmaceutical tablets; Powder characteristics; Sodium starch glycolate; Universal testing machines; Tensile strengthMinistry of Higher Education, Malaysia, MOHE: 03-04-10-815FR 815FR; Universiti Putra Malaysia: 05-01-10-0897RU; Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, MHESRThis work was supported by Universiti Putra Malaysia Research University Grant Project No. 05-01-10-0897RU, Ministry of Higher Education Malaysia Project No. 03-04-10-815FR 815FR and Ministry of Higher Education of Iraq, Thi-Qar University, Faculty of Engineering, Department of Biomedical Engineering.Karim, S., Effect of Sodium Starch Glycolate on Formulation of Fexofenadine Hydrochloride Immediate Release Tablets by Direct Compression Method (2018) Journal of Scientific Research, 10 (1), pp. 31-38; Al-Ibraheemi, Z.A.M., Deformation and mechanical characteristics of compacted binary mixtures of plastic (microcrystalline cellulose), elastic (sodium starch glycolate), and brittle (lactose monohydrate) pharmaceutical excipients (2013) Particulate Science and Technology, 31 (6), pp. 561-567; Biljana, G., Formulation and Evaluation of Immediate Release Tablets with Different Types of Paracetamol Powders Prepared by Direct Compression (2011) African Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmacology, 5, pp. 31-41; Pabari, R.M., Ramtoola, Z., Application of face centred central composite design to optimise compression force and tablet diameter for the formulation of mechanically strong and fast disintegrating orodispersible tablets (2012) International Journal of Pharmaceutics, 430 (1-2), pp. 18-25; Bilgili, E., Methods for superdisintegrant-based composite particles for dispersion and dissolution of active pharmaceutical agents (2018) Google Patents; Acharya, A., Various approaches to enhance the dissolution of Lornoxicam fast dissolving tablets prepared by using different categories of superdisintegrants: A comparative study (2018) Journal of Manmohan Memorial Institute of Health Sciences, 4 (1), pp. 86-102; Ahmad, M.Z., Compactibility and Compressibility Studies of Assam Bora Rice Starch (2012) Powder Technology, 224, pp. 281-286; Yuan, J., Enabling direct compression of formulated Danshen powder by surface engineering (2013) Powder Technology, 241, pp. 211-218; Alderborn, G., (2007) Tablets and Compaction in the Design and Manufacture of Medicines M.E.

This study focused on converting Zubair Oil Field Gas turbine (ALSTOM GT13E2) from single cycle into a combined cycle power plant. Models suggestion design have been presented with back-pressure steam turbine by Cycle-Tempo (5.1) thermodynamics simulation program, which presents value diagram and exergy flow diagram both are useful to understanding the thermodynamic performance of complicated systems.The result of exergy analysis explicate that huge amount of exergy loss firstly occurs in gas turbine combustor (about 60% due to high irreversibility), and heat recovery steam generation (HRSG) is the second major exergy loss in combined cycle power plant (about 30%) recently apparatus concepts less than 10% of exergy (like compressors and expanders). Also, in this study explained the effect of changing the ambient temperature on the performance of power plant by using four temperature parameters on the four simulation models at constant compression ratio. The results were the increase in gas turbine temperature inlet led to decrease the net power output of the CCPPs. Thermal and exergy efficiencies increase when ambient temperature increase due to growth turbine inlet temperature but this temperature restricted by creep rupture and thermal fatigue for combustor parts and turbine blades metal. Maximum thermal and exergy efficiencies can be reached to 55.74, 53.28% respectively at worst ambient temperature. The calculation results in this study were compared with two previous studies, with considerable differences in input parameters of the gas turbine and steam turbine also, the types of the gas turbine models. finally, the results showed acceptable agreement. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Alstom GT13E2 gas turbine; Cycle-Tempo (5.1).; Value diagramsCombined cycle power plants; Combustors; Efficiency; Exergy; Gas turbines; Gases; Oil fields; Steam power plants; Steam turbines; Temperature; Thermal fatigue; Waste heat; Cycle tempo; Exergy efficiencies; Gas turbine combustor; Temperature increase; Temperature parameters; Thermodynamic performance; Turbine inlet temperature; Value diagrams; Turbomachine bladesAmeri, Ahmadi, Khanmohammadi, Exergy analysis of a 420 MW combined cycle power plant (2008) Int.

This peptide is a biomarker of cardiovascular disorders which are the common causes of morbidity and mortality in patients with CRF. The present study tend to evaluate the role of BNP as a predictor of left ventricular function among patient with chronic renal failure on maintenance hemodialysis(HD) with particular concern to dialysis session frequency. Methods: A total of 90 patients with CRF who visited the dialysis unit at Al-Hussein Teaching Hospital in Thi-Qar city for maintenance hemodialysis were included in this study. They were divided into three groups according to the number of dialysis session per week. BNP level, glomerular filtration rate(GFR) of the patients were measured and left ventricular function (EF%) was detected by echocardiography. Results: There was a significant negative association between BNP level and EF% (P<0.001). BNP level was significantly lower in patients with three dialysis session per week in comparison with those patients who perform single session per week (P <0.001). There was also a strong inverse association between BNP level and GFR (P <0.001).Conclusion: BNP levels show a strong inverse association with EF% and GFR in patients with CRF.

This study has been undertaken to explore whether ginger supplementation maintains on delivery offspring in normal numbers and restore normal cholesterol levels in pregnant rats. Forty female rats with age 10 to 12 weeks have been divided into two groups; thirty Hpercholestrolemic pregnant rats and ten healthy pregnant rats. Hpercholestrolemic pregnant rats were equally divided into three groups; first group given normal saline, second group given simvastatin and third group treated with ginger after delivery litter size and weights were estimated for all dams. Dams were sacrificed and livers were removed and weighed, then fixed with 10% formalin and histopathological processing was performed. Results revealed that numbers of offspring in dams treated with ginger were nearby those of control while number of offspring from dams of simvastatin treated groups were significantly (P ≤ 0.05) decreased than those of control group. Histpoathological examination of liver rats of hyperchol+Simvastatin showed obvious dilatation of central hepatic vein and examination of liver in Simvastatin group showed dilatation of central hepatic vein. While histpoathological examination of liver rats of ginger group showed normal radiation of hepatocytes. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Dams; Food additives; Number theory; Cholesterol levels; Control groups; Hepatic veins; Hypercholesterolemia; Litter sizes; Normal numbers; Pregnant rat; Second group; RatsFrederick, O., Rolando, Q., Jaime, E.H., (2010) Philippine J. of Int.

Today, available chemical drugs have shown severe complications during hydatid cyst surgery. Here we investigated theefficacy and safety of Curcuma longa (C. longa) essential oil (CLEO) against hydatid cysts protoscoleces. Methods: Here, the collected protoscoleces from fertile hydatid cysts were exposed to different concentrations of the CLEO (50-200 μl/mL) for 5-30 min in vitro and ex vivo. In addition, male NIH mice (48 mice) were applied to examine the safety of CLEO. Results: All protoscoleces were completely killed in 5th min of treatment to the doses of 200 μl /mL of CLEO. On the other hand, in the 10th min of treatment, CLEO entirely killed 100% of protoscoleces at the dose of 100 μL/mL. Other doses of CLEO, but, revealed a postponed activity. Although CLEO at the doses of 50, and 100 μL/mL exhibited no similar effect in the ex vivo analysis; but, at the dose of 200 μL/mL and an exposure time of 5 min, approximately 100% of protoscoleces were destroyed into the cyst. We found that after intra-peritoneal injection of the CLEO for 14 days, although blood and biochemical parameters were changed; but there was no significant difference in comparison with the control group (p > 0.05). Conclusion: This research demonstrated that C. longa revealed the promising scolicidal effects against protoscoleces in vitro and in vivo, of course, after additional tests; it might be considered as an herbal scolicidal drug in order to decrease the threat of discharge of protoscoleces through hydatid cyst surgery. Nevertheless, supplementary studies will be desired to prove the current findings by examination the essential oil in a clinical setting. © 2019 The Author(s).Cystic echinococcosis; Echinococcus granulosus; GC/MS; Protoscoleces; TurmericCurcuma longa extract; essential oil; essential oil; plant extract; turmeric extract; animal experiment; animal model; antihydatid activity; Article; biochemistry; concentration (parameter); controlled study; Curcuma longa; drug efficacy; drug safety; echinococcosis; ex vivo study; hematological parameters; in vitro study; in vivo study; male; mouse; nonhuman; phytochemistry; protoscolex; treatment duration; adverse event; animal; chemistry; Curcuma; drug effect; echinococcosis; Echinococcus; human; intraperitoneal drug administration; parasitology; physiology; Animals; Curcuma; Echinococcosis; Echinococcus; Humans; Injections, Intraperitoneal; Male; Mice; Oils, Volatile; Plant ExtractsOils, Volatile; Plant Extracts; turmeric extractLorestan University of Medical Sciences, LUMSWe thank the staff of the Razi Herbal Medicines Research Center, Lorestan University of Medical Sciences, Khorramabad, Iran for their assistance to collect the blood samples.Guidelines for treatment of cystic and alveolar echinococcosis in humans / WHO Informal Working Group on Echinococcosis (1996) Bull World Health Organ., 74 (3), pp. 231-242. , WHO Informal Working Group on Echinococcosis; Brunetti, E., Kern, P., Vuitton, D.A., Writing panel for the WHO-IWGE expert consensus for the diagnosis and treatment of cystic and alveolar echinococcosis in humans (2010) Acta Trop, 114 (1), pp. 1-16; Galeh, T.M., Spotin, A., Mahami-Oskouei, M., Carmena, D., Rahimi, M.T., Barac, A., Ghoyounchi, R., Ahmadpour, E., The seroprevalence rate and population genetic structure of human cystic echinococcosis in the Middle East: A systematic review and meta-analysis (2018) Int J Surg, 51, pp. 39-48; McManus, D.P., Zhang, W., Li, J., Echinococcosis (2003) Lancet, 362, pp. 1295-1304; Junghanss, T., Da Silva, A.M., Horton, J., Clinical management of cystic echinococcosis: State of the art, problems, and perspectives (2008) Am J Trop Med Hyg, 79 (3), pp. 301-311; Mahmoudvand, H., Kheirandish, F., Dezaki, E.S., Shamsaddini, S., Harandi, M.F., Chemical composition, efficacy and safety of Pistacia vera (var.

Vibrational spectroscopy, such as Raman scattering, provides high chemical selectivity but is limited by weak signals and a large fluorescence background. Fluorescence imaging is often used by introducing specific dyes in biological systems to label different system parts and to increase the image contrast. However, the extrinsic fluorescence of the staining molecules often masks the intrinsic vibrational signals of biomolecules, which could also be simultaneously detected using the same excitation laser source. Therefore, fluorescence staining is often accompanied by the loss of other important complimentary information. For example, the high laser power often used for the rapid, high-quality imaging could lead to photo-induced suppression or bleaching of the fluorescence and Raman signals resulting in sample photodamage. Therefore, simultaneous imaging and photodamage analysis need to be performed in a controlled bioimaging experiment. Here we perform simultaneous spectroscopic bioimaging and photostability analysis of rhodamine 6G (R6G) stained red blood cells (RBCs) using both fluorescence and resonance Raman imaging in a single 532 nm laser excitation experiment. We develop a corresponding data processing algorithm which allows separation of the two spectroscopic signals. We control the relative intensity of the R6G and RBC signals by varying the excitation laser power and simultaneously monitor the photostability of RBCs. We observe no significant photodamage of RBCs through the absence of changes in the relative Raman peak intensities. Conversely, the R6G molecules show bleaching with the suppression of both the fluorescence and resonance Raman signals. Our approach may be generalized to other types of stained cells with the appropriate selection of fluorescent dyes and excitation sources. © 2019 The Royal Society of Chemistry.fluorescent dye; rhodamine; rhodamine 6G; animal; bovine; chemistry; cytology; erythrocyte; light; radiation response; Raman spectrometry; spectrofluorometry; Animals; Cattle; Erythrocytes; Fluorescent Dyes; Light; Rhodamines; Spectrometry, Fluorescence; Spectrum Analysis, Ramanrhodamine 6G, 989-38-8; Fluorescent Dyes; rhodamine 6G; RhodaminesNational Science Foundation, NSF: CHE-1609608; Office of Naval Research, ONR; Air Force Office of Scientific Research, AFOSR: FA9550-18-1-0141We acknowledge the support of the National Science Foundation (Grant No. CHE-1609608), the Air Force Office of Scientific Research (Award No. FA9550-18-1-0141), the Office of Naval Research (Grant No. N00014-16-1-2578), the Robert A.

Its treatment at the early stage of its recognition in a woman provides her multiple options for diagnosis. Physical inspection and mammography are helpful screening processes for the primary recognition of breast cancer, they are also labor dependent and need health specialists who are exceptionally prepared and skilled. This experiment was designed to estimate and compare the CA15-3 level, Prolactin hormone, and Lactate dehydrogenase enzyme in Breast Cancer patients and in apparently healthier individuals. Blood CA15-3, Prolactin hormone, and Lactate dehydrogenase enzyme levels were determined in 65 Women with Breast Cancer and 55 apparently healthy subjects. The levels of serum CA15-3, Prolactin hormone, and Lactate dehydrogenase enzyme were showing a significant increase in women with Breast Cancer in comparison to the control group (P ≤ 0.05). The study also investigates the correlation between the concentrations of the CA15-3 and each of Prolactin hormone, and Lactate dehydrogenase enzyme, However, we compared all measurement parameters according to the type of disease. In Breast cancer patients, we finding increase CA15-3, Prolactin hormone, and Lactate dehydrogenase enzyme can clearly occur, and we finding positive correlation relationship between CA15-3 and each of PRL and LDH through coefficient correlation (r). © 2019 Pharmascope Publications.

In this work, we demonstrate the use of super-resolution fluorescence microscopy for investigating and quantifying the antimicrobial effect of AgNPs at the molecular level. We found that subjecting Escherichia coli (E. coli) bacteria to AgNPs led to nanoscale reorganization of histone-like nucleoid structuring (H-NS) proteins, an essential nucleoid associated protein in bacteria. We observed that H-NS proteins formed denser and larger clusters at the center of the bacteria after exposure to AgNPs. We quantified the spatial reorganizations of H-NS proteins by examining the changes of various spatial parameters, including the inter-molecular distances and molecular densities. Clustering analysis based on Voronoi-tessellation were also performed to characterize the change of H-NS proteins' clustering behavior. We found that AgNP-treatment led to an increase in the fraction of H-NS proteins forming clusters. Similar effects were observed for bacteria exposed to Ag+ ions, suggesting that the release of Ag+ ions plays an important role in the toxicity of AgNPs. On the other hand, we observed that AgNPs with two surface coatings showed difference in the nanoscale reorganization of H-NS proteins, indicating that particle-specific effects also contribute to the antimicrobial activities of AgNPs. Our results suggested that H-NS proteins were significantly affected by AgNPs and Ag+ ions, which has been overlooked previously. In addition, we examined the dynamic motion of AgNPs that were attached to the surface of bacteria. We expect that the current methodology can be readily applied to broadly and quantitatively study the spatial reorganization of biological macromolecules at the scale of nanometers caused by metal nanoparticles, which are expected to shed new light on the antimicrobial mechanism of metal nanoparticles. © 2019 IOP Publishing Ltd.nanoparticle; nucleoid associated protein; quantification; spatial reorganization; super-resolution fluorescence microscopy; Voronoi diagramComputational geometry; Escherichia coli; Fluorescence; Fluorescence microscopy; Ions; Metal nanoparticles; Nanoparticles; Optical resolving power; Silver nanoparticles; Nucleoids; quantification; Spatial reorganization; Super resolution; Voronoi diagrams; Proteins; antiinfective agent; Escherichia coli protein; fimbria protein; FimG protein, E coli; metal nanoparticle; silver; chemistry; cluster analysis; drug effect; Escherichia coli; fluorescence microscopy; gene expression regulation; metabolism; particle size; single molecule imaging; Anti-Bacterial Agents; Cluster Analysis; Escherichia coli; Escherichia coli Proteins; Fimbriae Proteins; Gene Expression Regulation, Bacterial; Metal Nanoparticles; Microscopy, Fluorescence; Particle Size; Silver; Single Molecule Imagingsilver, 7440-22-4; Anti-Bacterial Agents; Escherichia coli Proteins; Fimbriae Proteins; FimG protein, E coli; SilverNational Science Foundation, NSF: 1826642Health Organization, W., (2014), World Health Statistics 2014; François, B., Jafri, H.S., Bonten, M., Alternatives to antibiotics (2016) Intensive Care Med., 42, pp. 2034-2036; Allen, H.K., Trachsel, J., Looft, T., Casey, T.A., Finding alternatives to antibiotics (2014) Ann.

The system that takes into account in the study is consisting of two rings connected in parallel, with the same type of atomic sites for pristine double metal ring, and with two different types of atomic sites for an alloyed double metal ring. The tight-binding method was used to calculate the energy spectrum and persistent current in presence of transverse flux. Our results show that the transverse flux causes bending of the persistent current and increase in current amplitude at the pristine double metal ring, while it leads to asymmetry at alloyed double metal ring. The energy gap is not affected by the transverse flux. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Electronic properties; Atomic sites; Current amplitude; Energy spectra; Metal rings; Persistent currents; Theoretical study; Tight binding methods; Transverse flux; MetalsYi, J., Wei, J., Hong, J., Lee, S.-I., Giant persistent currents in the open Aharonov-Bohm rings (2001) Physical Review B, 65 (3), p. 033305; Washburn, S., Webb, R.A., Aharonov-Bohm effect in normal metal quantum coherence and transport (1986) Advances in Physics, 35 (4), pp. 375-422; Orlando, T., Mooij, J., Tian, L., Van Der Wal, C.H., Levitov, L., Lloyd, S., Mazo, J., Superconducting persistent-current qubit (1999) Physical Review B, 60 (22), p. 15398; Tian, L., Levitov, L., Van Der Wal, C.H., Mooij, J., Orlando, T., Lloyd, S., Harmans, C., Mazo, J., (2000) Quantum Mesoscopic Phenomena and Mesoscopic Devices in Microelectronics, pp. 429-438. , (Springer); Büttiker, M., Imry, Y., Landauer, R., Josephson behavior in small normal one-dimensional rings (1983) Physics Letters A, 96 (7), pp. 365-367; Büttiker, M., Small normal-metal loop coupled to an electron reservoir (1985) Physical Review B, 32 (3), p. 1846; Levy, L., Dolan, G., Dunsmuir, J., Bouchiat, H., Magnetization of mesoscopic copper rings: Evidence for persistent currents (1990) Physical Review Letters, 64 (17), p. 2074; Mailly, D., Chapelier, C., Benoit, A., Experimental observation of persistent currents in GaAs-AlGaAs single loop (1993) Physical Review Letters, 70 (13), p. 2020; Deblock, R., Bel, R., Reulet, B., Bouchiat, H., Mailly, D., Diamagnetic orbital response of mesoscopic silver rings (2002) Physical Review Letters, 89 (20), p. 206803; Mailly, D., Chapelier, C., Benoit, A., Persistent currents in a GaAs-AlGaAs single loop (1994) Physica B: Condensed Matter, 197 (1-4), pp. 514-521; Lorke, A., Lorke, A., Luyken, R.J., Govorov, A.O., Kotthaus, J.P., Garcia, J.M., Petroff, P.M., (2000) Phys.

Res. Lab. (NNRL), Science College, University of Thi-Qar, Nassiriya, IraqThis work studies the gain from quantum dot plasmonic nanolaser. A metal/semiconductor/metal structure was considered to attain plasmonic nanocavity with active region contains: quantum dot, wetting layer and barrier layers. Band alignment between layers was used to predict their parameters. Momentum matrix element for transverse magnetic mode in quantum dot structure was formulated. Waveguide Fermi energy was introduced and formulated, for the first time, in this work to cover the waveguide contribution (Ag metal layer) in addition to the active region. The gain obtained here overcomes the electron scattering losses which promises in high gain, high power and high speed applications. The waveguide Fermi energy goes deep in the valence band which explains the high gain, where it is shown that covering the structure by a metal makes valence band quantum dot states fully occupied which refers to an efficient hole contribution. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Electron scattering; Fermi level; Nanocrystals; Plasmonics; Valence bands; Waveguides; Active regions; Band alignments; Barrier layers; High-speed applications; Momentum matrix element; Quantum dot structure; Transverse magnetic modes; Ultrahigh gain; Semiconductor quantum dotsBergman, D.J., Stockman, M.I., Surface Plasmon Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation: Quantum Generation of Coherent Surface Plasmons in Nanosystems (2003) Phys.

The original method is focused on implementation of load-balanced multicast routing in accordance with the principles of technology of Traffic Engineering. The method defined the tasks of two hierarchical levels: solution of the routing problem (lower level) and prevention of link overload in the MPLS network (upper level). The improvement of method consisting in modification of link overload prevention conditions will provide reducing the number of iterations of the coordination procedure by approximately in 1.5-5 times. © 2019 IEEE.Flow; Iteration; MPLS network; Multicast routing; Traffic Engineering; Two-level methodMulticasting; Routing algorithms; Flow; Iteration; MPLS network; Multicast routing; Traffic Engineering; Two level methods; Iterative methodsWhite, R., Banks, E., (2018) Computer Networking Problems and Solutions: An Innovative Approach to Building Resilient, Modern Networks 1st Edition. 1 Edition, , Addison-Wesley Professional; Rak, J., Papadimitriou, D., Niedermayer, H., Romero, P., Informationdriven network resilience: Research challenges and perspectives (2017) Optical Switching and Networking, 23, pp. 156-178. , January; Lao, L., Cui, J.-H., Gerla, M., Maggiorini, D., A comparative study of multicast protocols: Top, bottom, or in the middle?

Popovskyy Department of Infocommunication Engineering, Kharkiv National University of Radio Electronics, Kharkiv, UkraineIn this paper, a computation method of the number of disjoint paths under maximum bandwidth criterion during multipath routing in the infocommunication network is presented. The task of calculating the maximum number of disjoint paths was reduced to solving the optimization problem of integer linear programming with maximization of the number of paths focused on the bandwidth maximum in the presence of linear constraints since the routing variables are Boolean, and variables that determine the number of routes used take only integer values. © 2019 IEEE.disjoint paths; integer linear programming; maximum bandwidth; multipath routing; optimizationBandwidth; Optimization; Computation methods; Disjoint paths; Info-communication networks; Integer Linear Programming; Integer values; Linear constraints; Multi path routing; Optimization problems; Integer programmingWhite, R., Banks, E., (2018) Computer Networking Problems and Solutions: An Innovative Approach to Building Resilient, Modern Networks 1st Edition, , 1 edition Addison-Wesley Professional; Rak, J., (2015) Resilient Routing in Communication Networks, , 1st edition Springer; Mauthe, A., Hutchison, D., Cetinkaya, E.K., Ganchev, I., Rak, J., Sterbenz, J.P., Gunkelk, M., Gomes, T., Disaster-resilient communication networks: Principles and best practices Proc. 2016 8th International Workshop on Resilient Networks Design and Modeling (RNDM), pp. 1-10. , 13-15 September 2016; Stallings, W., (2016) Cryptography and Network Security: Principles and Practice, p. 768. , 7th Edition Pearson; (2014) Cisco Networking Academy, p. 792. , Routing Protocols Companion Guide, 1st Edition, Cisco Press; Lou, W., Kwon, Y., H-SPREAD: A Hybrid Multipath Scheme for Secure and Reliable Data Collection in Wireless Sensor Networks (2006) IEEE Transactions on Vehicular Technology, 55 (4), pp. 1320-1330; Alouneh, S., Agarwal, A., En-Nouaary, A., A Novel Path Protection Scheme for MPLS Networks using Multi-path Routing."

This study is concerned with examining the effect of four sodium chloride concentrations (0, 25, 50 and 75 mM) and four trehalose sugar concentrations (0, 5, 10 and 15 gm. L-1) in some chemical characteristics of somatic embryos of date palm c.v Um - Aldehine in vitro. The results showed: That the increasing in sodium chloride concentration in culture media had a significant increase in the concentrations of carbohydrates and proline. In addition, the treatment (75 mM) of sodium chloride achieved the highest averages, also it has led to a significant decrease in proteins percentage. The effects of increasing trehalose sugar concentration in culture media has significantly increased the carbohydrates, proline and proteins. However, the treatment of (15 g. L-1) resulted the highest averages. The interaction treatment between sodium chloride (75 mM) and trehalose sugar (15 g.L-1) has significantly increased the carbohydrates and proline. The added concentrations of trehalose sugar to the culture media contributed to decreased the effects of salt stress, therefore, increased the tolerance of somatic embryos of date palm to the salt stress. © 2019, Indian Journal of Public Health Research and Development.

Thirty two of rats were randomly divided into two main groups. The first group control group was not treated with whey protein, the second group was divided into three subgroups which administrated the whey protein 300 mg/kg body weight for (one, two and three month) respectively. Reproductive performance was measured by determination of count sperm, malformations, motility, dead sperm, weights of (testes, epididymis, prostate glands and seminal vesicles) and testicular structure was studied. The results referred to receiving of whey protein for long periods led to significant decreasing (P≤0.05) in total count of sperm, motility and significant decreasing (P≤0.05) in weights of all studied organs included (testes, epididymis, prostate glands and seminal vesical) while significant increasing (P≤0.05) was observed in sperm abnormalities and dead sperm. Also, the results showed that the nutritional supplement caused many abnormalities of sperm included lacking, quirky, starched and hooked tail while the malformations of head encompassed lacking, elliptical and global head. The histological changes in testicular structure manifested by destroyed and increasing thickness of interstitial tissue, congestion of blood vessels, necrosis and reduction numbers of spermatocytes in all supplemented groups. © 2019, Indian Journal of Public Health Research and Development.

To improve the quality and reliability of control programs for CNC machines, a digital twin (DT) is proposed to be used. It performs virtual testing of a given grinding cycle for the possibility of defect occurrence at some combination of variable technological factors. To design the optimal grinding cycle by calculating the optimum trajectory of the radial feed change cycle, we propose the dynamic programming method (DPM) used in solving the classical transport problem, in which a network of roads with intermediate stations is specified. In the task it is necessary to find the optimal trajectory of transport. The conditions for the appearance of defects detected by the DT are introduced into the system of restrictions, and the feed cycle is again optimized in the DPM optimization system. A new optimized cycle is again tested by the DT. These iterations are repeated until the DT fixes the present of a defect for the operation. The methodology proposed in the article for the synthesis of digital twin and DPM technologies at the stage of preparation of control programs for CNC machines makes it possible to guarantee the maximum productivity of the grinding operation while ensuring the specified quality of the machined surface under varying processing conditions that vary within the specified limits. © 2019 Author(s).Computer control systems; Design; Digital twin; Grinding (machining); Machinery; Quality control; Classical transport; Dynamic programming methods; Machining conditions; Maximum productivity; Optimal trajectories; Optimization system; Processing condition; Technological factors; Dynamic programmingMinistry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation, Minobrnauka: 9.5589.2017/8.9Financial support.

This paper studies numerically the effect of some design parameters (pipe diameter, inlet condition, pipe length, and outlet condition) on the overall performance of the EAHE system. Four diameters of the EAHE pipe (2, 3, 4, and 6 in) are studied and this numerical study has been done for summer and winter seasons for Nasiriyah city in southern Iraq. First, the built numerical model was validated against the experimental model, and the results of comparison showed a good consensus. After the validation and by using computational fluid dynamics modeling, the overall performance of the EAHE system with all pipe diameters was analyzed with ranges of air velocity, DBT or inlet temperature, and a pipe length of 50 m. The simulated results showed that the EAHE system with 6 in pipe diameter has the best values of overall performance, but from the thermal performance point of view, the 2 in pipe diameter is more suitable. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.computational fluid dynamics; earth-to-air heat exchanger system; geothermal energy; numerical investigation; thermal performanceComputational fluid dynamics; Energy utilization; Geothermal energy; Heat exchangers; Piping systems; Computational fluid dynamics modeling; Earth-to-air heat exchanger; Experimental modeling; Heating applications; Inlet temperature; Numerical investigations; Reduce energy consumption; Thermal Performance; AirMathur, A., Surana, A.K., Verma, P., Mathur, S., Agrawal, G.D., Mathur, J., Numerical investigation of the performance and soil temperature recovery of an EATHE system under intermittent operations (2015) J Energ Build, 109, pp. 291-303; Ghosal, M., Tiwari, G., Srivastava, N., Thermal modeling of a greenhouse with an integrated earth to air heat exchanger: an experimental validation (2004) J Energ Build, 36, pp. 27-219; Al-Ajmi, F., Loveday, D., Hanby, V., The cooling potential of earth-air heat exchangers for domestic buildings inadesert climate (2006) J Build Environ, 41, pp. 44-235; Lee, K.H., Strand, R.K., The cooling and heating potential of an earth tube system in buildings (2008) J.

This study was designed to assess the level of awareness and knowledge of local residents concerning solid waste management in Al-Nassyriah City of Iraq. Primary data were collected from local residents through questionnaire and interview. A total of 1,794 questionnaires were completed by the respondents that were randomly selected from 12 suburban areas located in Al-Nassyriah City. A descriptive cross-sectional analysis was performed among local communities and results were analyzed by using SPSS software. Results from the survey showed that 67% of respondents were dissatisfied with the current practice of solid waste management in their city. The results also showed that low-level of knowledge on relevant laws and regulations pertaining to solid waste was observed among respondents. Although half of the respondents were aware about the importance of managing solid waste, however, most of them failed to put their knowledge and awareness into practice. Therefore, extensive and continuous efforts by various stakeholders are urgently needed to enhance public awareness towards sustainable solid waste management in developing countries, particularly in Al-Nassyriah City, Iraq. © 2019 Author(s).Awareness level; Iraq; Solid waste management; SustainabilitySarker, B.C., Sarker, S.K., Islam, M.S., Sharmin, S., Public awareness about disposal of solid waste and its impact: A study in Tangail Pourashava, Tangail (2013) Journal of Environmental Science and Natural Resources, 5 (2), pp. 239-244; Otchere, A.F., Anan, J., Bio, M.O., An assessment of solid waste management system in the Kumasi Metropolis (2015) Journal of Arts and Humanities, 4 (3), p. 27; Inglezakis, V.J., Moustakas, K., Household hazardous waste management: A review (2015) Journal of Environmental Management, 150, pp. 310-321; Hu, J.-L., Lee, Y.-C., Efficient three industrial waste abatement for regions in China (2008) The International Journal of Sustainable Development and World Ecology, 15 (2), pp. 132-144; Schübeler, P., Christen, J., Wehrle, K., (1996) Conceptual Framework for Municipal Solid Waste Management in Low-income Countries, 9. , SKAT (Swiss Center for Development Cooperation); Rutala, W.A., Mayhall, C.G., Medical waste (1992) Infection Control & Hospital Epidemiology, 13 (1), pp. 38-48; Yevich, R., Logan, J.A., An assessment of biofuel use and burning of agricultural waste in the developing world (2003) Global Biogeochemical Cycles, 17 (4); Dyson, B., Chang, N.-B., Forecasting municipal solid waste generation in a fast-growing urban region with system dynamics modeling (2005) Waste Management, 25 (7), pp. 669-679; Chabuk, A., Present status of solid waste management at Babylon Governorate, Iraq (2015) Engineering, 5 (7), pp. 408-423. , et al., ; Kumar, J.S., Subbaiah, K.V., Rao, P.P., Prediction of Municipal Solid Waste with RBF Net Work-A Case Study of Eluru, AP, India (2011) International Journal of Innovation, Management and Technology, 2 (3), p. 238; Shiralipour, A., McConnell, D.B., Smith, W.H., Physical and chemical properties of soils as affected by municipal solid waste compost application (1992) Biomass and Bioenergy, 3 (3), pp. 261-266; Baabereyir, A., (2009) Urban Environmental Problems in Ghana: a Case Study of Social and Environmental Injustice in Solid Waste Management in Accra and Sekondi-Takoradi, , University of Nottingham; Zhang, D., Keat, T.S., Gersberg, R.M., A comparison of municipal solid waste management in Berlin and Singapore (2010) Waste Management, 30 (5), pp. 921-933Hanafiah, M.M.; School of Environmental and Natural Resource Sciences, Malaysia; email: mhmarlia@ukm.edu.myRasol N.H.A.Ibrahim K.Hasbullah S.A.Jumali M.H.H.Ibrahim N.Hanafiah M.M.Latif M.T.American Institute of Physics Inc.2018 UKM FST Postgraduate Colloquium4 April 2018 through 6 April 20181490860094243X9780735418431EnglishAIP Conf.

Several models were used to investigate the ionosphere conditions. These models use mainly two parameters to evaluate the perturbations in the ionosphere. These parameters are the electron density and TEC (Total Electron Content) which they control the ability of reflections frequencies in the ionosphere. The propagation characteristics were investigated. This paper uses four models to estimate the ionosphere perturbations. The goal of this paper was to choose the most efficient model that gives the best image that evaluates the ability of reflections shortwaves in the ionosphere. All these computations did not take the Sunspot number in considerations. © 2019 IEEE.Ionosphere; IRI-2007; NeQuick model; Space Weather Service model; VOACAP modelArtificial intelligence; Electromagnetic waves; Ionospheric measurement; Free electron; Ionosphere condition; Propagation characteristics; Sunspot number; Total electron content; Two parameter; IonosphereAbdulameer Difar, K., Sorin Tasu, A., Investigation in communication behavior of ionosphere (2019) The Eighteenth International Conference on Networks, ICN 2019, , Valencia, Spain; Bora, S., Ionosphere and radio communication (2017) Gen.

Patients with unresectable primary or secondary liver malignancies have limited therapeutic options. Thus, treatment of such malignancies is challenging, and the demand for effective treatment remains high, even in the presence of systemic chemotherapy. Loco regional chemotherapy is a minimally invasive technique that allows the delivery of high dose chemotherapy with minimal extra-hepatic toxicity. Surgical isolated hepatic perfusion has been shown to be effective in patients with unresectable hepatic malignancies; however, its complexity, high complication rates and non-repeatability limit its global acceptance. Percutaneous hepatic perfusion is a novel method of delivering regional chemotherapy in a selective fashion to the liver. In addition, it is relatively less invasive and has a low rate of complications. This review article will illustrate the technique of percutaneous hepatic perfusion and will provide an overview about its safety and potential complications, then discussing the results of the selected relevant articles. © 2019, Kuwait Medical Association.

The iteration procedure is based on local fractional derivative operators (LFDOs). This method is a combination of the local fractional Laplace transform (LFLT) and the homotopy perturbation method (HPM). The method in general is easy to implement and yields good results. Illustrative examples are included to demonstrate the validity and applicability of the new technique. © 2019 by the authors.

The body dimensions of kids at birth and the dam's weight and age at birth, as well as the dependence of weaning weight on the birth weight of the kids by the use of simple linear regression equations. The results presented that coefficient of regression of most studied dimensions on the traits of maternal weight at birth and weight of the kid at birth has significant effect, except the regression of the body length at birth on both the maternal weight at birth and the kids weight at birth, which was not significant, The results showed the possibility of dependence on the studied maternal characteristics and kids birth weight to predict the dimensions of the goat kids body at birth. © 2019, University of Mosul - College of Veterinary Medicine.

Wetting layer and quantum dot inhomogeneity were considered in the calculations, which gives a practical description of double quantum dot structures well. With increasing spontaneously generated coherence from Λ-component, the dispersion was increased and shifted under spontaneously generated coherence. The inclusion of wetting layer under spontaneously generated coherence increases gain which coincides with the published results. A possibility of slow light was predicted. © IMechE 2019.Double quantum dot; ladder-plus-Y system; spontaneously generated coherence; wetting layerLadders; Nanocrystals; Slow light; Spontaneous emission;

The studied system is consisting of two rings connected parallel, with two different types of atomic sites. This work contains two parts. First is an analytical study of calculation of the energy spectrum, persistent current, Drude weight and low-field magnetic susceptibility of ADMR by the tight-binding method. Second is a computation study of electronic properties of the alloyed double metal ring by density functional theory (DFT). The latter part is considered as a complementary study of what was studied in the first part in order to determine the best materials which will be used to design alloyed double metal ring. Our results show that the on-site energies for both types of atoms, inter-ring coupling strength and hopping strengths play an interesting role in controlling the electronic properties. © 2019DFT; Double metal ring; Drude weight; Persistent currentYi, J., Wei, J., Hong, J., Lee, S.-I., (2001) Phys.

This paper presents a statistical analysis of seven PDs proposed to model qc obtained through performing CPT for soil in Nasiriyah during the construction of a new refinery petrol station. Preliminary testing for suitability of the suggested distributions has used the method of moment ratio diagram (MRD) based on the Pearson system. It was found that the soil stratification has a large effect on the distance between every two points on MRD. The type of probability distribution was also affected, and changed, by increasing the number of data points for qc included in the analysis. Logistic and Weibull distributions are considered the best PDs that represent the qc of the first layer having thickness 12 m of clay soil, followed by the other distributions, while the logistic and normal distributions were considered the best PDs among the seven suggested distributions for the second layer of 8 m silty sand and clayey sand. All the suggested distribution can represent the given qc data approximately except the Rayleigh distribution. © 2018, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.Cone tip resistance; Moment ratio diagram; Probability distribution;

The detection of k-complexes in electroencephalogram (EEG) signals based on visual inspection is time consuming, prone to errors, and requires well-trained knowledge. Many existing methods for k-complexes detection rely mainly on analyzing EEG signals in time and frequency domains. In this study, an efficient method is proposed to detect k-complexes from EEG signals based on fractal dimension (FD) of time frequency (T-F) images coupled with undirected graph features. Firstly, an EEG signal is partitioned into smaller segments using a sliding window technique. Each EEG segment is passed through a spectrogram of short time Fourier transform (STFT) to obtain the T-F images. Secondly, the box counting method is applied to each T-F image to discover the FDs in EEG signals. A vector of FD features are extracted from each T-F image and then mapped into an undirected graph. The structural properties of the graphs are used as the representative features of the original EEG signals for the input of a least square support vector machine (LS-SVM) classifier. Key graphic features are extracted from the undirected graphs. The extracted graph features are forwarded to the LS-SVM for classification. To investigate the classification ability of the proposed feature extraction combined with the LS-SVM classifier, the extracted features are also forwarded to a k-means classifier for comparison. The proposed method is compared with several existing k-complexes detection methods in which the same datasets were used. The findings of this study shows that the proposed method yields better classification results than other existing methods in the literature. An average accuracy of 97% for the detection of the k-complexes is obtained using the proposed method. The proposed method could lead to an efficient tool for the scoring of automatic sleep stages which could be useful for doctors and neurologists in the diagnosis and treatment of sleep disorders and for sleep research. © 2019 Al-Salman, Li and Wen.Box counting and time frequency images; Electroencephalogram; Fractal dimensions; K-complexes; Structural undirected graphaccuracy; algorithm; arousal; Article; artificial neural network; controlled study; correlation coefficient; data analysis software; diagnostic accuracy; diagnostic test accuracy study; electroencephalogram; event related potential; female; Fourier transformation; fractal analysis; human; human experiment; image segmentation; machine learning; male; prediction; receiver operating characteristic; seizure; sensitivity and specificity; sleep disorder; sleep spindle; sleep stage; support vector machine; wavelet transformationMinistry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, MHESRWA-S would like to thank the Ministry of Higher Education of Iraq for the financial support and providing me the opportunity to pursue his Ph.D. study in Australia.

Packed beds of near-spherical NaCl particles (ø2-2.8 mm) were infiltrated with liquid metal to produce the required samples. The brittle zinc alloy ZA-27 and ductile Aluminium (99% Al) were used as matrix materials. NaCl particles were retained inside half of these samples to replicate MSF containing high-strength particles. NaCl was leached from the remaining samples to investigate MSF with weak particles. This procedure ensured that all samples had a near-identical matrix geometry and microstructure, thus isolating the effect of particle strength. Quasi-static compression tests were conducted and significant changes in the deformation behaviour were observed. Samples containing NaCl particles deformed in a shear-band dominated mode, whilst the ductile foam underwent layer-by-layer deformation. © 2019 Elsevier B.V.Deformation mechanism; Ductility; Mechanical properties; Particle strength; Syntactic foamCompression testing; Ductility; Foams; Mechanical properties; Packed beds; Sodium chloride; Syntactics; Zinc alloys; Deformation behaviour; Deformation mechanism; Matrix ductility; Matrix materials; Particle strength; Quasi-static compression; Syntactic foams; Systematic study; DeformationColombo, P., Degischer, H.P., Highly porous metals and ceramics (2010) Mater.

These two Cu/O/B clusters are formed through self-assembly processes and contain tridentate hexaborate(2−)-κ 3 O ligands. Both compounds have been characterized by TGA/DSC, magnetic susceptibility measurements, IR spectroscopy, and single-crystal XRD studies. The intermolecular H-bond interactions between neighbouring hexaborate units are implicated in their templated synthesis. Compound 2 is a coordination polymer and stabilization is also gained through formation of an additional O–Cu coordinate bond. Steric congestion in 1 blocks formation of this bond resulting in insular complexes. © 2019, The Author(s).1-D coordination polymer; Copper(2+); Hexaborate(2−); Oxidoborate; PolyborateEngineering and Physical Sciences Research Council, EPSRCWe thank the EPSRC for use of the NCS X-ray crystallographic service (Southampton).Christ, C.L., Clark, J.R., (1977) Phys.

Thymol is one of these compounds present in several plant sources such as ajowan (Trachyspermum ammi) fruits. In this study, thymol was evaluated for its potential cytotoxic activity as well as its effect on apoptotic gene expression in breast cancer cell line. We used the GC-MS technique to identify the essential oil constituents of ajowan. MCF-7 cells were treated by various concentrations of thymol and half maximum inhibitory concentration (IC50) was evaluated by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay. In addition, morphological alterations and changes of P21, P53 and Mcl-1 gene expression in MCF-7 cells were investigated by microscopic examination and real-time RT-PCR assay. Data from MTT assay indicated that the IC50 values of thymol on MCF-7 cells for 48 h and 72 h were 54 and 62 μg/mL, respectively. Furthermore, this compound significantly affected gene expressions of P53 and P21, but not Mcl-1. Thymol can induce the apoptosis process in MCF-7, and hence it can be considered an anticancer agent in the future. © 2019, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.ajowan; MCF-7 cells; P21; P53; thymol1,2 epoxy menth 4 ene; alpha terpinol; alpha thujene; beta pinene; carvone; dihydrocarvone; essential oil; isodihydrocarvone; limonene; myrcene; myristicin; para cymene; patchouli alcohol; protein mcl 1; protein p21; protein p53; tamoxifen; terpene 4 ol; terpinene; thymol; trans 4 thujanol; unclassified drug; antineoplastic activity; apoptosis; Article; breast cancer; chemical composition; concentration response; controlled study; drug cytotoxicity; G1 phase cell cycle checkpoint; gene expression; HEK293-FT cell line; human; human cell; IC50; in vitro study; mass fragmentography; MCF-7 cell line; MTT assay; real time polymerase chain reaction; Trachyspermum ammialpha thujene, 2867-05-2; beta pinene, 127-91-3; carvone, 99-49-0; limonene, 138-86-3, 5989-27-5; myrcene, 123-35-3; myristicin, 607-91-0; para cymene, 99-87-6; protein p21, 85306-28-1; tamoxifen, 10540-29-1; terpinene, 8013-00-1; thymol, 89-83-8DeSantis, C.E., Ma, J., Goding Sauer, A., (2017) CA.

The development of hydroxyapatite is due to their crystallographic and chemical similarity to the hard tissue of human body. The present study aims to prepare hydroxyapatite from a bio-waste material (carp fish bone) as an eco-friendly and inexpensive source by calcination treatment. The calcination process was applied at various calcining temperatures; the heating rate was kept constant at 10 °C min−1. FTIR results proved the formation of hydroxyapatite at 950 °C due to the founding peaks corresponding to phosphate (632 cm−1) and hydroxyl (3572 cm−1). XRD analysis confirmed the formation of HAp at 950 °C by the presence three main peaks: (211), (112), and (300), which correspond to the characteristic peaks of hydroxyapatite. Raman analyses which displayed the calcining process remove organic components from a bones matrix. AFM showed that the size of particles is ranged between nano and microns. EDS analysis found that the Ca/P reaches 1.6589 for fish bone after calcination at 950 °C, which is close to stoichiometric HAp (1.67). © 2019, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.Calcination temperature; Fish bone; HydroxyapatiteCalcination; Fish; Particle size analysis; Waste treatment; Biomedical fields; Calcination temperature; Calcination treatment; Calcining temperature; Characteristic peaks; Chemical similarity; Natural hydroxyapatite; Organic components; HydroxyapatiteAmirkabir University of Technology, AUTThe authors would like to express their gratitude to the staff of Materials Research Center/Ministry of Science and Technology, Iraq, and the authors are also thankful to Professor Nader Pravin—Amirkabir University of Technology—Iran, for amendment for this paper.Ramirez, G., Londoño, R., Adel, R., Mondragón, M.A., Rodriguez, G., Effect of the temperature and sintering time on the thermal, structural, morphological, and vibrational properties of hydroxyapatite derived from pig bone (2017) Ceram Int, 43, pp. 7552-7559; Khandelwal, H., Prakash, S., Synthesis and characterization of hydroxyapatite powder by eggshell (2016) J Miner Mater Charact Eng, 4, pp. 119-126; Mobasherpour, I., Heshajin, S., Kazemzadeh, A., Zakeri, M., Synthesis of nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite by using precipitation method (2007) J Alloys Compd, 430, pp. 330-333; Londoño-Restrepo, S.M., Ramirez-Gutierrez, C.F., del Real, A., Study of bovine hydroxyapatite obtained by calcination at low heating rates and cooled in furnace air (2016) J Mater Sci, 51, pp. 4431-4441; Boutinguiza, M., Pou, J., Comesaña, R., Lusquiños, F., De Carlos, A., León, B., Biological hydroxyapatite obtained from fish bones (2012) Mater Sci Eng C, 32, pp. 478-486; Coelho, T.M., Characterization of natural nanostructured hydroxyapatite obtained from the bones of Brazilian river fish (2006) J Appl Phys, 100, p. 094312; Venkatesan, J., Kim, S.K., Effect of temperature on isolation and characterization of hydroxyapatite from tuna (Thunnus obesus) bone (2010) Materials, 3, pp. 4761-4772; Cristian, F., Anderzon, F., Sandra, M., Beatriz, M., Mario, E., Cooling rate effects on thermal, structural, and microstructural properties of bio-hydroxyapatite obtained from bovine bone (2016) J Biomed Mater Res B Appl Biomater, 104 (2), pp. 339-344; Rujitanapanich, S., Kumpapanb, P., Wanjanoi, P., Synthesis of hydroxyapatite from oyster shell via precipitation (2014) Energy Procedia, 56, pp. 112-117; Kim, D.H., Hwang, K.H., Lee, J.D., Park, H.C., Yoon, S.Y., Long and short range order structural analysis of in situ formed biphasic calcium phosphates (2015) Biomater Res, 19, p. 14; Jaber, H.L., Hammood, A.S., Pravin, N., Synthesis and characterization of hydroxyapatite powder from natural camelus bone (2018) J Aust Ceram Soc, 54 (1), pp. 1-10; Hammood, A.S., Hassan, S.S., Alkhafagy, M.T., Access to optimal calcination temperature for nanoparticles synthesis from hydroxyapatite bovine femur bone waste (2017) Nano Biomed Eng, 9 (3), pp. 228-235; Hammood, A.S., Hassan, S.S., Alkhafagy, M.T., Comparison of natural and nano-synthetically-produced hydroxyapatite powder (2019) JOM, 71 (1), pp. 272-278; Haberko, K., Bucko, M.M., Miecznik, B., Haberko, M., Mozgawa, W., Natural hydroxyapatite-its behaviour during heat treatment (2006) J Eur Ceram Soc, 26, pp. 537-542; Cristian, F., Anderzon, F., Sandra, M., Beatriz, M., Mario, E., The effect of cyclic heat treatment on the physicochemical properties of bio hydroxyapatite from bovine bone (2018) J Mater Sci Mater Med, 29 (5), p. 52; Khoo, W., Nor, F.M., Ardhyananta, H., Kurniawan, D., Preparation of natural hydroxyapatite from bovine femur bones using calcination at various temperatures (2015) Procedia Manuf, 2, pp. 196-201; Giraldo-Betancur, A.L., Espinosa-Arbelaez, D.G., del Real-López, A., Millan-Malo, B.M., Rivera-Muñoz, E.M., Gutierrez-Cortez, E., Rodriguez-García, M.E., Comparison of physicochemical properties of bio and commercial hydroxyapatite (2013) Curr Appl Phys, 13, pp. 1383-1390Hammood, A.S.; Material Engineering Department, Iraq; email: alis.altameemi@uokufa.edu.iqSpringer Nature25233971EnglishSN Appl.

Numerous oil spills have been documented recently in many sites due to damage in the oil industry infrastructures, which have led to soil contamination causing serious environmental hazards and deterioration to the soil and its engineering properties. So, it is essential to investigate the impact of oil leakage through the soil stratum consequently, assessing the eligibility of the contaminated soil for construction projects or identifying the appropriate treatment method. The paper investigates the general behaviour and the associated variations in the geotechnical properties upon contamination of soil in Thi-Qar Governorate which is characterised by many oil refineries. Disturbed soil samples are artificially contaminated with crude oil ranging from 0% to 10% of their dry weight. Testing programs have been conducted on the soil incorporated with conventional tests such as grading, Atterberg limit, compaction and consolidation tests as well as electrical resistivity measurements. To achieve a reliable assessment, the findings are directly compared to those of the uncontaminated soil. The final outcomes of this study indicate that an increase in oil content causes the distribution of the aggregate size curves to shift from fine to coarse ranges. Also, liquid limit, plastic limit, and plasticity index increased markedly upon contamination. Moreover, oil added to the soil mixture caused an increase in the maximum dry density of the soil and a decrease in the corresponding optimum moisture content. In addition, the consolidation characteristics of the polluted soil have been affected slightly and the electrical resistivity data was sensitive to the amount of pollutant. © 2019 Praise Worthy Prize S.r.l.Electrical properties; Geotechnical properties; oil-contaminated soil; Thi-qar soilAuthors would like to express their sincere gratitude to all staff members of the Civil Engineering Department, College of Engineering, University of Thi-Qar.

The main problem with these systems is how to maintain the privacy of sensitive patient information. Due to not fully protecting the records from unauthorised users, EHR systems fail to provide privacy for protected health information. Weak security measures also allow authorised users to exceed their specific privileges to access medical records. Thus, some of the systems are not a trustworthy source and are undesirable for patients and healthcare providers. Therefore, an authorisation system that provides privacy when accessing patients’ data is required to address these security issues. Specifically, security and privacy precautions should be raised for specific categories of users, doctor advisors, physician researchers, emergency doctors, and patients’ relatives. Presently, these users can break into the electronic systems and even violate patients’ privacy because of the privileges granted to them or the inadequate security and privacy mechanisms of these systems. To address the security and privacy problems associated with specific users, we develop the Pseudonymization and Anonymization with the XACML (PAX) modular system, which depends on client and server applications. It provides a security solution to the privacy issues and the problem of safe-access decisions for patients’ data in the EHR. The results of theoretical and experimental security analysis prove that PAX provides security features in preserving the privacy of healthcare users and is safe against known attacks. © 2019 by the authors.

The optoelectronic properties of the MPs with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) units have been investigated by using density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent (TDDFT) at B3LYP and the 6-31G(d) basis set. These properties include total energies, Fermi energy, work function, orbital distributions (HOMO, LUMO), the HOMO-LUMO gap, the maximum open circuit voltage, maximum wavelength absorption, electronic transition energies, and the oscillator strengths. These methods and calculation procedures not only encourage a profound understanding of the association between the optoelectronic properties and chemical structures of the molecules but also can be utilized to design new molecule structures. We investigated the influence of the PAHs into the MPs and studied the optoelectronic properties on all molecules. The results showed that the maximum absorption wavelengths for MPs-PAHs are within the visible light region. Therefore, these molecules provide good performance for the photovoltaic devices and solar cells applications. Significance: Our results showed that the total energy increase after addition of PAHs for MPs, this illustration that the molecules converted to more stability. The addition of PAHs can enhance HOMO, LUMO level which can upsurge reduce bandgap energy and also the faculty of electron injection. Where the bandgap energy lies in the range (2.242–3.012) eV. The λmax takes the values from 378.84 nm to 681.03 nm, where the lowest value for Ms. (S3) and highest for the Ms. (S1), where Ms. (S1) represents firsa t singlet excited state that is at about 681.03 nm but with a feeble absorption. We observed that the sturdy absorption peaks (Ms (S2), Ms-fluorene (S3), Ms-naphthalene (S3), and Ms-anthracene (S3)) are within the visible light region. These results of the dyes confirmation that these dyes are possible to be a perfect photosensitizer in solar cells. © 2019DFT; Energy gap; Monascus pigments; Photovoltaic; Solar cellDensity functional theory; Design for testability; Dye-sensitized solar cells; Energy gap; Excited states; Light; Mineral oils; Molecules; Naphthalene; Open circuit voltage; Oscillators (electronic); Photosensitizers; Polymer films; Solar cells; Solar power generation; Absorption wavelengths; Calculation procedure; Electronic transition energies; Monascus pigment; Optoelectronic properties; Photovoltaic; Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHS); Singlet excited state; Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbonsSang-aroon, W., Saekow, S., Amornkitbamrung, V., Density functional theory study on the electronic structure of Monascus dyes as photosensitizer for dye-sensitized solar cells (2012) J.

The pristine BGNTs displayed wide-band gap semiconducting properties. The effect of the bilayer spacing was studied by varying the distance between the flakes from 4 Å to 8 Å which showed an increase in the band gap value from 3.33 eV to 3.46 eV, respectively. By adding N, B and BN atoms at the center between the bilayer, the band gap of the BGNFs was narrowed to 0.09 eV −1.9 eV. The aforementioned findings clearly reveal that the spacing between the bilayer along with the doping types changes significantly the induced band gap. The total energy and dipole moment were also shown to be affected by the spacing between the layers. In particular, total energy was decreased as the spacing between layers increased while the dipole moment was increased by increasing the distance between BGNFs layers comparing with pristine cases. The capability of manipulating the electronic properties of the BGNFs via changing bilayer spacing and doping atoms open up the opportunity of tuning the band gap as needed for many applications including a solar cell, photo, and gas sensor as well as energy storage nanodevices. © 2019 Elsevier LtdBGNFs; DFT; DOS; Electronic band gap; Total energyBoron nitride; Calculations; Density functional theory; Dipole moment; DOS; Electronic properties; Electronic structure; Graphene; III-V semiconductors; Nitrides; Band gap engineering; Band-gap values; BGNFs; Bilayer Graphene; Electronic band gaps; First principles density functional theory (DFT) calculations; Semi-conducting property; Total energy; Energy gapYankowitz, M., Chen, S., Polshyn, H., Zhang, Y., Watanabe, K., Taniguchi, T., Graf, D., Dean, C.R., Tuning superconductivity in twisted bilayer graphene (2019) Science, p. eaav1910; Rafiee, M., Nitzsche, F., Laliberte, J., Hind, S., Robitaille, F., Labrosse, M., Thermal properties of doubly reinforced fiberglass/epoxy composites with graphene nanoplatelets, graphene oxide and reduced-graphene oxide (2019) Compos.

Samples were collected from ten different salons. The samples were collected from scissors,comb, razor, dryer, sink, and table tools. The isolates obtained were examined and identified using microscopic examination, colonial morphology and biochemical characteristics. Six bacterial species were isolated and identified. The bacterial isolates include Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Streptococcus spp, Micrococcus Spp,Enterococusspp and Enterobacter. Isolated from some men's salons and shaving tools and the highest frequency of bacteria was in the salon of Nawras by 15%, Salon Ahmed by 12.5%, more bacterial isolation of shaving tools,sink,razor and the presence of this potential pathogen is an indication that hairdressing salons could be contributing to the spread of infection. © 2019, International Journal of Pharmaceutical Quality Assurance.

Muthana University, College of dentistry, Iraq; Hafeh, A.A.H., Pathological analysis department College of Science-University of Thi-Qar, IraqBackground: Transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) of the bladder is the second most common malignancy of the genitourinary tract and the third most common cause of death among people with genitourinary tumors, besides, tumors of the bladder are an important source of both morbidity and mortality. Objectives: The purpose of the study are 1. formulate an idea about the number of patients with bladder cancer (TCCs) in sample of Iraqi population. 2. Study the histopathological features of TCCs of bladder 3. Assessment the prevalence of (TCC) of bladder in both sex (male and female) with smoking as risk factor. Patients and Methods: A study was conducted at one institution were identified that teaching-hospital of Baghdad. All patients included in the present study diagnostic with TCC of bladder. The total of subjects participated in the study were 42 patients and 20 subjects as control through six months’ period from July 2014 to January 2015. Results: The mean of participates age was 655.7 years and the youngest was 21years and the oldest was 75 years. Out of 42 patients, the most common age group was 54-64years (52.38%) with Male to female ratio was 5.2:1.32 were male 32 and 10 were females. However, the prevalence bladder cancer (TCCs) was higher in male than in female, with more pronounced decreases in younger age (≤31year) 3(7.14), have been found. In addition, age specific rate was observed higher in the older age groups for most patients with cancer. The population attributable risk for ever smoking in our study was 33(78.57) out of 42 patients. Moreover, current study shows there was a correlation between grade and stage of bladder TCC, 24(57.14%) bladder TCCs that classified as grade I, while 2(4.76%) of bladder TCC were classified as grade II. Conversely, of the bladder TCC lesions (11.9%, 14.28%, 57.14 and 4.76) were stage (pTa-T1-T2-T3) respectively. Although this study showed 5(11.9) little-known stage and grade. The area of histopathological changes included were showed hyperplastic changes, involving the entire bladder lining, that ranged from flat hyperplasia to small areas of nodular and papillary hyperplasia. The smallest recognizable nodular and papillary lesions were associated with angiogenesis in the contiguous stroma. In addition, there were chromatin irregularities and nucleoli of variable numbers, shape and size. Nuclear chromatin irregularity and mitoses were easily identified, these cells continued to have the appearance of hyperplastic epithelium. The changes noted by generalized and orderly proliferative reaction and appeared reparative. Conclusions: Our study has revealed that the bladder TCC, where appeared the high prevalence and incidence rate of TCC of bladder in sample of Iraqi population were of concern, especially for older age groups. © 2019, International Journal of Pharmaceutical Quality Assurance.

This study was carried out on 89 patients were enrolled in the study and were divided into two groups; group A included 43 patients treated with Rifampin and Trimethoprim plus sodium stibogluconate antimony of them 19 males and 24 females, while group B included 46 patients(24 males and 22 females) treated with sodium stibogluconate antimony, all were treated and evaluated weekly. The cure rate in complete response for patients in group A in six week 35(81.39%) and less rate was in one week 1(2.23%) when as compared with group B which recorded high rate in six week 31(67.39%) while did not show any response in one week. The highest rate of partial response was observed in the first week 16(37.20%) and then reduced in the third week 12(27.90%) and sixth week 7(16.27%) while the percentage of partial response in group B was reduced when as compared with group A. The present study recorded that the poor response of combination therapy in group A was 26(60.46%) in the first week then gradually reduced in third and sixth week 4(9.30%) and 1(2.32%) respectively while the poor response in group B was high especially in the first week 45(97.82%) and third week 20(43.47%).The present study showed that using adjunct drug such as Rifampin and Trimethoprim plus sodium stibogluconate antimony increase the therapeutic activity in treatment of cutaneous leishmaniasis when as compared with sodium stibogluconate antimony alone. © 2019, Advanced Scientific Research.

Primary hypothyroidism arises when thyroid gland itself doesn’t work properly, whereas secondary hypothyroidism is initiated when the thyroid gland doesn’t get adequate stimulation from thyroid stimulating hormones. Primary hypothyroidism is triggered by iodine deficiency, autoimmune disease, radiation therapy, drugs or thyroid surgery The study was designed to determine and compare the levels of TSH, T4, T3,adiponectin hormone (ADP), and lipid profile (TCH), (TG), (HDL), (LDL), and (VLDL)in patients with Hypothyroidismand apparently healthy individuals.Blood levelsTSH, T4, T3, adiponectin hormone (ADP), and lipid profile (TCH), (TG), (HDL), (LDL), and (VLDL) were determined in 45patients with Hypothyroidismand 40 apparently healthy subjects.The levels of serum TSHand biochemical markers of body lipid profile (serum TCH,TG,LDL,VLDL) were showing an enormous rise in patients having Hypothyroidismwhen matched withthe control group. On the contrary, the levels of T4, T3,ADP, and HDLindicated a considerable decrease in patients having Hypothyroidism when matched with control subjects(P≤0.05).In patients with Hypothyroidism, we foundan increase in TSH. There is a momentous elevation in the cholesterol and triglyceride levels during patients with Hypothyroidism.Hypothyroidism can affect on lipoproteins levels (high LDL, low HDL, and high VLDL., the decrease in T4,T3,and ADP can clearly occur. © 2019, Advanced Scientific Research.

The research study was directed at Al-Hussein Teaching Hospital in Thi-Qar Biochemistry Laboratory in College of Sciences, University of Thi-Qar, Iraq. Total 85 subjects were incorporated in this study with 50 control subjects and 35 hypertensive patients. Serum lipid profile comprising triglyceride, VLDL, antherogenic index, LDL, urea, creatinine and HDL were estimated for both groups.The results indicated the considerably higher levels of very low density lipoproteins, atherogenic index, low density lipoprotein, creatinine, triglycerides, urea and total cholesterol in patients than that of control group. Whereas, high density lipoproteins level was found to be low in patient group comparing to control. The outcome acquired from our present study concluded that a positive association of serum lipid profile particularly triglycerides, LDL and total cholesterol levels to hypertension. These advanced lipid levels might be because of stress, alcohol consumption, physical inactivity, high consumption of dietary fat and increased age.Thus, an appropriate valuation of lipid profile in all hypertensive cases is essential to halt additional intensification and coronary artery disease risks. Hence, the serum creatinine and urea level could be utilized for diabetic, hypertensive nephropathic cases and renal disease. © 2019, Advanced Scientific Research.

The geometric, energetic, and electronic properties, which include the bond length, charge, adsorption energies, HOMO energies, Fermi level energies, LUMO energies, energy gaps, work functions, dipole moments and reactivity descriptors were calculated by DFT/B3LYP with 6-31G(d) basis set for the GNR in free mode and interacted with the tyrosine (Tyr) molecule. The molecular electrostatic potential and the electron density surfaces have been constructed. Moreover, we used orbital analysis counting the density of states (DOS) to finding out the possible orbital hybridization of these hybrid structures. Based on the results, it was found that GNR shows high reactivity toward Tyr, and, in the favorable state, the calculated adsorption energy is about 2.610 eV. It is shown that the electronic properties of GNR are strongly sensitive to the presence of Tyr molecule. Therefore, we believe that these hybrid structures of nanobiosensors are able to sense the smallest amino acid constructing block of proteins, and the GNRs have the potential to be used in sensor devices. © 2019, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.adsorption; DFT; DOS; graphene nanoribbons; sensorAdsorption; Amino acids; Bond length; Density functional theory; DOS; Electronic properties; Graphene; Molecules; Sensors; Adsorption energies; Amino acid detection; Graphene nano-ribbon; Graphene nanoribbon (GNR); Graphene nanoribbons; Molecular electrostatic potentials; Orbital hybridization; Reactivity descriptors; NanoribbonsShao, Y., Wang, J., Wu, H., Liu, J., Aksay, I.A., Lin, Y., (2010) Electroanalysis, 22, p. 1027; Pumera, M., Ambrosi, A., Bonanni, A., Chng, E.L.K., Poh, H.L., (2010) Trends Anal.

Two QAM modulators were implemented i.e. 4QAM and 16 QAM. The targeted board for the implementation is ZYBO board from XILINX and the used software is XILINX Vivado. The main important point in the paper is the use of quarter wave instead of full wave sinusoidal signal to generate the carrier signal. This process has saved the utilization resources by more than 50%. Saving this many resources will make a great impact on the future implantation of digital modulators since the implementation depends heavily on how the carrier signal got generated because it consumes most of utilization recourses. The paper used very high speed integrated circuit hardware descriptive language (VHDL) without the help of high level simulation tools like DSP builder tools or XILINX system generator. © 2006-2019 Asian Research Publishing Network (ARPN).Digital modulators; FPGA; LUT; QAM; Utilization resources; ZYBOMitola, J., Software radios-survey, critical evaluation and future directions (1992) In Proceedings of IEEE National Tele systems Conference 13/15-13/23; Mitola, J., The software radio architecture (1995) IEEE Communications Magazine, 33, pp. 26-38; Mitola, J., Software radio architecture: a mathematical perspective (1999) IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications, 17 (4), pp. 514-538; Quadri, F., Tete, A.D., FPGA implementation of digital modulation techniques (2013) in Proceedings of IEEE International Conference on Communications and Signal Processing (ICCSP), Melmaruvathur, India, pp. 913-917; Al-Safi, A., Bazuin, B., FPGA based implementation of BPSK and QPSK modulators using address reverse accumulators (2016) in Proceedings of the 7th IEEE Annual Ubiquitous Computing, Electronics & Mobile Communication Conference, , Columbia University, New York City, USA; Al-Safi, B.B., Toward digital transmitters with ASK and QAM implementation examples (2017) in Proceedings of the 7th IEEE Annual Computing and Communication Workshop and Conference (CCWC), , Hotel Stratosphere, Las Vegas, USA, 9-11 January; Erdogan, I., Myderrizi, M.S., FPGA Implementation of BASK-BFSK-BPSK digital modulators (2012) IEEE Antennas and Propagation Magazine, 54 (2), pp. 262-269; Popescu, S.O., Gontean, A.S., Budura, G., BPSK system on Spartan 3E FPGA (2012) in Proceedings of IEEE 10th International Symposium on Applied Machine Intelligence and Informatics (SAMI), pp. 301-306; Chye, Y.H., Ain, M.F., Zawawi, N.M., Design of BPSK transmitter using FPGA with DAC (2009) in Proceedings of IEEE 9th International Conference on Communications (MICC), Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, pp. 451-456Al-Safi, A.S.; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Iraq; email: ameansharea.ghazi@wmich.eduAsian Research Publishing Network18196608EnglishARPN J.

Their members include zoonotic viruses with pandemic potential where therapeutic options are currently limited. Despite this diversity CoVs share some common features including the production, in infected cells, of elaborate membrane structures. Membranes represent both an obstacle and aid to CoV replication - and in consequence - virus-encoded structural and nonstructural proteins have membrane-binding properties. The structural proteins encounter cellular membranes at both entry and exit of the virus while the nonstructural proteins reorganize cellular membranes to benefit virus replication. Here, the role of each protein in membrane binding is described to provide a comprehensive picture of their role in the CoV replication cycle. © 2019 2019 Ian M Jones.bending; coronavirus; egress; fusion; membrane; peptide; replication; webbinding protein; structural protein; cell membrane; Coronavirinae; membrane binding; membrane structure; nonhuman; priority journal; protein interaction; Review; virus release; virus replicationMasters, P.S., The molecular biology of coronaviruses (2006) Adv.

Finite-element-method-based numerical simulations and experimental measurements were performed to quantify the size, shape, and depth of the delaminations. Two composite plates with purpose-built delaminations of different sizes and depths were analyzed. In the experiments, ultrasonic C-scan was applied to visualize the simulated delaminations. In this methodology, piezoelectric wafer active sensors were used for the high-frequency excitation with a linear sine wave chirp from 1 to 500 kHz and a scanning laser Doppler vibrometer was used to measure the local vibration response of the composite plates. The local defect resonance frequencies of delaminations were determined from scanning laser Doppler vibrometer measurements and the corresponding operational vibration shapes were measured and utilized to quantify the delaminations. Harmonic analysis of local finite element model at the local defect resonance frequencies demonstrated that the strong vibrations only occurred in the delamination region. It is shown that the effect of delamination depth on the detectability of the delamination was more significant than the size of the delamination. The experimental and finite element modeling results demonstrate a good capability for the assessment of delamination with different sizes and depths in composite structures. © 2019 by the authors.

It is observed that GNFs structure in a pure state exhibiting semiconductor behavior with big bandgap. Depending on structural properties of Li impurity in GNFs structure, the electronic properties at the ground and low-lying excited states of the structures may vary. As a result of calculations, it has been determined that Li impurity affects the bandgap values of GNFs structure significantly. The results show that the electronic properties of GNFs depend on the geometrical pattern of Li impurity in the GNFs structure. The bandgap of GNFs is hardly red-shifted by the doping of Li impurity due to the interaction with the sp-hybrid orbital. The effects of Li impurity both the ground and excited electronic states of GNFs were discussed. In addition, we can provide bandgap tuning of GNFs by doping Li as required, and for its application in solar cell and nanoelectronic devices. © 2019 The Physical Society of the Republic of China (Taiwan)Bandgap; Fermi levels; Graphene nanoflakes; Optical properties; TD-DFTPumera, M., Ambrosi, A., Bonanni, A., Chng, E.L.K., Poh, H.L., Graphene for electrochemical sensing and biosensing (2010) TrAC Trends Anal.

Our results show that the electronic and electrical properties can be controlled using (0% to −10%) strain. The behavior of g-SiC3 is altered from a semi metallic to semiconductor. The electronic band gap is opened under −9% and −10% strain. Also, the geometry of g-SiC3 is altered under with these two percentages of strain due to the bond length between C-Si atoms is increasing. The electrical conductivity of siligraphene g-SiC3 as a function temperature without and with strain has been given. We detected very exciting results. It is affected and changed when at the same percentage of strain, which applied to alter the behavior of g-SiC3 to semiconductor. Then, these properties can be led to generate new 2-D nanomaterials and devices with huge control over their physical properties for a wide range of applications ranging from photovoltaic to photo-catalysis. We show that siligraphene is a very promising 2D material with great impact that can lead to exceptional results in the field of solar energy and other application. Consequently, we push the experimental researches to discover this new 2D nanomaterial (siligraphene) for using in solar cell application. © 2018DFT; Electronic band gap; g-SiC3; Siligraphene; StrainBond length; Density functional theory; Energy gap; Nanostructured materials; Solar cells; Solar energy; Strain; 2D nanomaterial; Electrical conductivity; Electronic band gaps; Experimental research; First-principles density functional theory; g-SiC3; Siligraphene; Solar-cell applications; Silicon compoundsTongay, S., Schumann, T., Miao, X., Appleton, B., Hebard, A., Tuning Schottky diodes at the many-layer-graphene/semiconductor interface by doping (2011) Carbon, 49, pp. 2033-2038; Feng, S., Lin, Z., Gan, X., Lv, R., Terrones, M., Doping two-dimensional materials: ultra-sensitive sensors, band gap tuning and ferromagnetic monolayers (2017) Nanoscale Horiz., 2, pp. 72-80; Akinwande, D., Petrone, N., Hone, J., Two-dimensional flexible nanoelectronics (2014) Nat.

CFRP can greatly improve the flexural and shear capacity of deteriorated members and therefore extends their useful life. The main problem of external CFRP is the debonding of the sheets from the concrete surface at some point of loading, which negatively affects the efficiency of strengthening and may consequently lead to an unanticipated failure of the strengthened members. The major reason for this early debonding is likely due to the low accuracy of the preparation and the high stress concentration at the flat contact area exists between CFRP sheets and the concrete. The problem has been extensively discussed in the literature and some CFRP application techniques such as “Externally Bonded Reinforcement on Grooves (EBROG)” and “Externally Bonded Reinforcement in Grooves (EBRIG)” have been proposed as alternatives to the conventional application methods. Although some research has been carried out, there have been few experimental investigations that provided quantitative discussion of the efficiency of the new developed techniques. This research was aimed to experimentally assess the efficiency of grooving techniques and to provide a quantitative data regarding the behaviour of bonding between CFRP and concrete. The effects of shape and direction of the grooves and CFRP layers on the load carrying capacity, mid-span deflection and failure mode of thirteen RC beams have been investigated and discussed. In general, CFRP has significantly improved the flexural capacity of strengthened beams especially when grooving technique has been employed. © 2019, Brazilian Association of Computational Mechanics.

Recently, various machine learning techniques have been developed to tackle the problems of IPS. The WLAN fingerprinting technique is one of the most cost effective choices for IPS due to the use of existing Wi-Fi networks in commercial and public buildings. However, the variation of Received Signal Strength (RSS) at any specific location due to the indoor fading issue leads to serious challenges in the accuracy of the distance estimates. In this paper, we propose a new technique by using Probabilistic Neural Network (PNN) multi-classifier based on Multiple Service Set Identifiers (MSSIDs) that are configured on the same access point. A spatial voting scenario for three PNN-classifiers is proposed as a tool to determine the location of the user. Using a spatial voting based technique is specifically designed to tackle the negative impact of the multi-path propagation on the performance of IPS. The proposed system is performed inside the College of Engineering and Applied Sciences (CEAS) at Western Michigan University. The performance of the proposed system compared with some of the common methods such as K-Nearest Neighbors (K-NN) and multi-class support vector machine (SVM). According to the experimental results, the spatial voting of the three PNN-dassifiers can significantly mitigate the adverse effects of RSS variation. The performance of the multi-classifier exhibits superior performance to that of the other single classifiers in all Area of Interest (AOI). Over 3000 m2 AOI, the proposed system achieves localization accuracy < 0.73m and with precision 90 % of the distance error less than 2m. © 2019 IEEE.AP Selection; IPS; K-NN; Multiple SSIDs; PNN; WLAN FingerprintCost effectiveness; Indoor positioning systems; Location; Mobile computing; Nearest neighbor search; Neural networks; Support vector machines; Telecommunication services; Wi-Fi; Wireless local area networks (WLAN); AP selection; Engineering and Applied Science; Machine learning techniques; Multi-class support vector machines; Multiple SSIDs; Probabilistic neural networks; Western Michigan University; WLAN Fingerprint; Location based servicesLiu, Y., Yang, Z., (2010) Location, Localization, Localizability: Locationawareness Technology for Wireless Networks, , Springer Science & Business Media; Drawil, N.M., Amar, H.M., Basir, O.A., GPS localization accuracy classification: A context-based approach (2013) IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems, 14 (1), pp. 262-273; Mainetti, L., Patrono, L., Sergi, I., A survey on indoor positioning systems (2014) Software, Telecommunications and Computer Networks (SoftCOM) 2014 22nd International Conference On.

Urinary tract infection (UTI) in pregnant women is especially important because it may produce complications that may be serious to the mother and fetus. Seventy-five samples were collected aseptically in sterile disposable containers. The microscopic examination of the urine plays an important role in the diagnosis of UTI based on the presence or none of pus cell, crystals, Epithelium cell and RBCs, as well as the appearance of the bacteria in the urine sediment under the microscope in large numbers confirming its presence in the urine. However, the culture remains the basic rule in diagnosing urinary tract infections. The specimens were labeled and transported to the microbiology laboratory. A calibrated sterile platinum wire loop was used to transfer 1μl of the uncentrifuged urine specimen and streaked on MacConkey agar and EMB agar during the period from November 2017 to February 2018. The DNA was extracted from E. coli and the PCR technique 16srRNA gene was detected by the specific primers. Using electrophoresis after adding red safe stain, the bands size appeared 1250 base pairs, then the samples are sent to conduct the sequencing. The results showed three variations: two Transition and once Transversion. The results of phylogenetic analysis showed proximity and the genetic dimension among themselves and the world with more than 99% compatibility values. © 2019, World Research Association.

It is good to communicate between the dumb and other people by convert dumb sings into voice, where that voice is clear for all people they cannot understand the gesture. In this paper, we suggest an algorithm for recognizing hand gestures of Arabic numbers (0-10) to using by dumb (through signs) and converting the sings into voices corresponding to sings numbers. The algorithm uses video for gesture of the dumb then converts this video into frames (images), Preprocessing for the resulted image must be done by removing the noise, resize the images and increasing the contrast, then calculating the distance to clustering the numbers by using C4.5, k-mean, k-medoid and artificial neural network. Eighteen features are calculated; eight features from Euclidean distance, eight features from slop, Area, and perimeter. The results in the training stage were the accuracy are; C4.5 gave 100%, k-mean gave 90.2357% k-medoid gave 87.5421% and artificial neural network gave 82.3793%. While in the testing stage classifiers are; Euclidian Distance, Modify Standardize Euclidian Distance and Correlation to calculating the difference between the features stored from training stage with new tested features and the results show that Euclidian Distance gave 90.90%, modified Standardize Euclidian Distance gave 100% and Correlation gave 100%.

The detection of virulence factors of this pathogen can be used to determine pathogenic potential as a rapid screening method. A total of 109 isolates (46%) showed positive culture for S. pyogenes, these isolates recovered from 235 swabs were collected from tonsillitis patients in ENT department in Al–Habboby Teaching Hospital, Thi-Qar province, Iraq. S. pyogenes isolates exposed to detect the specific gene (spy1258)and one of the virulence factors were smeZ gene by PCR technique and DNA sequencing analysis. The PCR results recorded that 61% and 50% of isolates harbor spy1258 and smeZ genes, respectively. The sequencing of PCR products showed significant alignments identities (94-100%) to the S. pyogenes for both genes which are located in BLAST-NCBI Genbank. The four PCR products of both genes were registered in Genbank under the named as (ZKD1 spy-like gene; ZKD2 spy-like gene; ZKD3 smeZ-like gene and ZKD4 SmeZ-like gene). The results of Multiple sequence alignment analysis recorded that C > T and T > C polymorphism for smeZ gene. © The Author(s) 2019.Gene sequences; S. pyogenes; SmeZ; Spy1258; Tonsillitisbacterial DNA; virulence factor; Article; bacterial gene; bacterial strain; bacterium culture; bacterium identification; bacterium isolate; DNA polymorphism; DNA sequence; GenBank; gene identification; group A streptococcal infection; human; Iraq; nonhuman; phylogenetic tree; polymerase chain reaction; sequence alignment; smez gene; spy 1258 gene; streptococcal pharyngitis; Streptococcus pyogenesRantala, S., Vaha kuopus, S., Siljander, T., Vuopio, J., Huhtala, H., Vuento, R., Syrjanen, J., Streptococcus pyogenes bacteraemia, emm types and superantigen profiles (2012) Eur.

Herein, graphene nanosheets (GNS) were firstly synthesized through liquid phase exfoliation (LPE) of graphite in isopropanol then mixed with epoxy resin (ER) creating a composite of GNS/ER. The properties of the as-obtained structure were evaluated by transmission electron and ultraviolet–visible spectroscopies. The nonlinear optical properties (NLO) of GNS/ER were investigated through single beam Z-scan technique using a continuous-wave (CW) laser beam obtained from a solid-state laser (SDL). The results reveal that GNS/ER composite shows a negative nonlinear refractive index of (−0.26 × 10−8 cm2/W). Optical limiting (OL) measurements were performed on the GNS/ER and the mechanism of the OL is ascribed to the nonlinear refraction (thermal effects). These outcomes specify the potential use of cost-effective produced GNS/ER composite to boost the NLO and OL for future photonic applications. © 2019 Elsevier B.V.Epoxy resin; Graphene nanosheets; Liquid phase exfoliation; Nonlinear & optical limiting properties; Thermal nonlinearityCost effectiveness; Epoxy resins; Exfoliation (materials science); Graphene; Graphite epoxy composites; Laser beams; Nanosheets; Refractive index; Solid state lasers; Graphene nanosheets; Liquid Phase; Non-linear optical properties; Nonlinear refractive index; Optical limiting properties; Thermal and mechanical stabilities; Thermal nonlinearities; Transmission electron; Nonlinear opticsAl-Asadi, A.S., Henley, L.A., Ghosh, S., Quetz, A., Dubenko, I., Pradhan, N., Balicas, L., Lin, Z., Fabrication and characterization of ultraviolet photosensors from ZnO nanowires prepared using chemical bath deposition method (2016) J.

A hybrid global–local approach was used in conjunction with the imaging methods for the numerical simulation. The hybrid global–local approach allowed fast and efficient prediction of scattering wave signals for Lamb wave interaction with crack from various incident directions. The simulation results showed the directionality effect of the scattering wave signals and suggested an optimum transmitter–sensor configuration. Two imaging methods were used: one involves the synthetic time reversal concept and the other involves Gaussian distribution function. Both imaging methods show very good agreement during simulations. Experiments were designed and conducted based on the simulated results. A network of eight piezoelectric wafer active sensors was used to capture the scattering waves from the crack. Both the pitch-catch and pulse-echo experimental modes were used. The directionality effect of incident Lamb waves on the imaging results was studied. The effect of summation, multiplication, and combined algorithms for each imaging method was studied. It was found that both methods can successfully predict the crack size and orientation. An attempt was made to use these imaging methods for detecting and sizing smaller sized damage (1- to 3-mm-diameter hole). It was found that these methods can successfully localize the hole, but size estimation was a bit challenging because of the smaller dimensions. The scattering waves for various hole sizes were studied. © The Author(s) 2018.crack sizing; scattering waves; Structural health monitoring; synthetic time reversal; wave propagationCracks; Damage detection; Distribution functions; Structural health monitoring; Surface waves; Ultrasonic waves; Wave propagation; Combined algorithms; Efficient predictions; Experimental investigations; Experimental modes; Piezoelectric wafer active sensors; Scattering waves; Sensor configurations; Synthetic-time; Numerical methodsAzuara, G., Barrera, E., Ruiz, M., (2018) Integration of algorithms for damage detection in thermoplastic materials inside electronic embedded devices, pp. 1-12. , 9th European workshop on structural health monitoring series (EWSHM), Manchester, Manchester, UK, 10–13 July 2018, Northampton, UK, BINDT, In; Baghalian, A., Tashakori, S., Senyurek, V.Y., Non-contact quantification of longitudinal and circumferential defects in pipes using the surface response to excitation (SuRE) method (2017) International Journal of Prognostics and Health Management, 8 (2), pp. 1-8; Bhuiyan, M.Y., Shen, Y., Giurgiutiu, V., Interaction of lamb waves with rivet hole cracks from multiple directions (2017) Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part C: Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science, 231 (16), pp. 2974-2987; Chang, F.K., Markmiller, J.F., Ihn, J.B., A potential link from damage diagnostics to health prognostics of composites through built-in sensors (2007) Journal of Vibration and Acoustics-Transactions of the ASME, 129 (6), pp. 718-729; Ebrahimkhanlou, A., Dubuc, B., Salamone, S., (2016) A guided ultrasonic imaging approach in isotropic plate structures using edge reflections, 98033. , Proceedings of the SPIE smart structures and materials, nondestructive evaluation and health monitoring, Las Vegas, NV, 20 April, In; Fromme, P., Sayir, M.B., Detection of cracks at rivet holes using guided waves (2002) Ultrasonics, 40 (1-8), pp. 199-203; Ghosh, T., Kundu, T., Karpur, P., Efficient use of lamb modes for detecting defects in large plates (1998) Ultrasonics, 36 (7), pp. 791-801; Hafezi, M.H., Kundu, T., Peri-ultrasound modeling of dynamic response of an interface crack showing wave scattering and crack propagation (2017) Journal of Nondestructive Evaluation, Diagnostics and Prognostics of Engineering Systems, 1 (1), pp. 11003-11009; He, J., Guan, X., Peng, T., A multi-feature integration method for fatigue crack detection and crack length estimation in riveted lap joints using Lamb waves (2013) Smart Materials and Structures, 22 (10), pp. 105007-105019; He, J., Ran, Y., Liu, B., A fatigue crack size evaluation method based on lamb wave simulation and limited experimental data (2017) Sensors, 17 (9). , 2097; He, J., Ran, Y., Yang, J., (2016) A novel crack size quantification method based on Lamb wave simulation, pp. 1-6. , 2016 prognostics and system health management conference (PHM-Chengdu), Chengdu, China, 19–21 October 2016, New York, IEEE,.

Specifically, we study enabling friendly coexistence mainly by interference reduction through increase in the power transmission cost on each LTE AP 1 (eNodeB) and WiFi AP and find the conditions under which a long-term coexistence can be established. We model this long-term coexistence by finding the evolutionary stable strategies of the evolutionary game. We analyze the cost functions for the LTE-U and the WiFi APs, and show that the LTE-U AP behavior is more sensitive to the cost than to the number of users, while WiFi is more sensitive to the number of users than to the transmission power cost. To further reduce the interference, we consider the case where the WiFi AP removes users that cannot establish the minimum signal to interference plus noise ratio required to reduce the interference to the LTE-U AP users. Interestingly this creates more interference due to the aggressive/selfish behavior of the WiFi APs. Finally, we extend the game over continuous strategies by formulating a game theoretic model for the coexistence problem, find its Nash equilibrium, and study its stability under the replicator dynamics of the evolutionary game. 1 For simplicity, we use the term AP to also refer to LTE-U eNodeBs. © 2015 IEEE.evolutionary game theory; LTE-U; spectrum coexistence; WiFiCost functions; Long Term Evolution (LTE); Statistics; Virtual reality; Wave interference; Wi-Fi; Wireless local area networks (WLAN); Wireless telecommunication systems; Evolutionary game theory; Games; Sociology; Spectrum Coexistence; Wireless fidelities; Game theoryOffice of Naval Research, ONR: N00014-15-1-2168Manuscript received March 28, 2018; revised September 2, 2018 and November 28, 2018; accepted November 29, 2018.

Rossin College of Engineering and Applied Science, Lehigh University, Bethlehem, PA 18015, United StatesLarge eddy simulations of a ventilated pump-turbine were conducted using LES-mixture model. Peripheral and central aeration were applied to study the effectiveness of oxygen dissolution and the pump-turbine performance. The peripheral draft tube aeration was performed by air injection through (1) a continuous orifice and (2) a series of discrete orifices along the surface of the draft tube. The simulations were performed when the system is operating in the turbine mode. Peripheral aeration was more effective for the achieved dissolved oxygen level and the oxygen dissolution efficiency. The mean dissolved oxygen concentration and the dissolution efficiency inside the draft tube were predicted to be 1.8 mg/l and 80% using the continuous or discrete peripheral aeration and 1.4 mg/l and 25% using the central aeration. A mean value ranging from 1.0 mg/l to 2.0 mg/l was considered to be sufficient for aerobic bacteria to treat the wastewater. Aeration resulted in a minor penalty on the power generation, while it provided a significant reduction in the flow-induced vibration. The central aeration was more effective in reducing the amplitude of pressure fluctuations and yielded more stable turbine operating conditions. © 2018 Elsevier LtdCentral aeration; Large eddy simulation; Oxygen dissolution; Peripheral aeration; Pressure fluctuations; Wastewater treatmentAerobic bacteria; Biochemical oxygen demand; Dissolution; Efficiency; Hydraulic turbines; Large eddy simulation; Orifices; Pumped storage power plants; Wastewater treatment; Water aeration; Dissolution efficiencies; Dissolved oxygen concentrations; Dissolved oxygen levels; Flow induced vibrations; Mixture model; Operating condition; Oxygen dissolution; Pressure fluctuation; Dissolved oxygenNational Science Foundation, NSF: TG-CTS170051This work used the Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery Environment (XSEDE), which is supported by Specifically, it used the Bridges system, which is supported by NSF, at the Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center (PSC).

Overall, 192 men, recruited from two University Hospitals, were allocated into two equal groups of matched age; healthy potent men and men with ED non-responders for oral sildenafil citrate. Oral sildenafil citrate non-responders self-reported inadequate erectile responses after four attempts using 100 mg with the manufacturer’s guidelines relative to meals, associated medications, and sexual stimulation/arousal. Exclusion criteria were: diabetes, cardiovascular disorders, beta blockers treatment, morbid obesity, thyroid disorders, post-radical prostatectomy, and hepatic/renal failure. All participants were subjected to; history taking, clinical examination, validated IIEF-5 questionnaire, estimation of serum l-carnitine by calorimetric method and serum 25(OH)D by ELISA method. Compared with potent controls, ED men non-responders for oral sildenafil citrate showed significant decreases in the mean serum l-carnitine level (16.8 ± 3.6 uM/L versus 66.3 ± 11.9 uM/L, P = 0.001), the mean serum 25(OH)D level (21.2 ± 7.1 ng/ml versus 54.6 ± 7.9 ng/mL, P = 0.001) and IIEF-5 score (7.8 ± 2.6 versus 23.9 ± 1.3). Serum l-carnitine showed significant positive correlation with IIEF-5 scores (r = 0.873, P = 001), serum 25(OH)D (r = 0.796, P = 0.001) and significant negative correlation with the age (r = -0.515, P = 0.001). Serum 25(OH)D showed significant positive correlation with IIEF-5 scores (r = 0.855, P = 0.001) and significant negative correlation with the age (r = -0.223, P = 0.005). It is concluded that normal homeostasis of serum l-carnitine and 25(OH)D play a role in male sexual health being significantly decreased in ED non-responding for oral sildenafil citrate. © 2018, Macmillan Publishers Limited, part of Springer Nature.carnitine; sildenafil; vitamin D; 25 hydroxyergocalciferol; carnitine; phosphodiesterase inhibitor; sildenafil; adult; Article; blood level; cigarette smoking; comparative study; controlled study; cross-sectional study; drug tolerance; enzyme linked immunosorbent assay; erectile dysfunction; human; International Index of Erectile Function; male; middle aged; prevalence; priority journal; sexual arousal; sexual health; validation process; blood; case control study; clinical trial; Egypt; erectile dysfunction; multicenter study; oral drug administration; questionnaire; 25-Hydroxyvitamin D 2; Administration, Oral; Adult; Carnitine; Case-Control Studies; Cross-Sectional Studies; Egypt; Erectile Dysfunction; Humans; Male; Middle Aged; Phosphodiesterase Inhibitors; Sildenafil Citrate; Surveys and Questionnairescarnitine, 461-06-3, 541-15-1, 56-99-5; sildenafil, 139755-83-2; 25 hydroxyergocalciferol, 21343-40-8; 25-Hydroxyvitamin D 2; Carnitine; Phosphodiesterase Inhibitors; Sildenafil Citrateviagra, Pfizer, United StatesPfizer, United StatesDRG, United StatesImpotence.

The model was developed using a database collected from 207 experiments available in the existing literature. Five key input parameters were used to build the model, which were slab effective depth, concrete strength, reinforcement ratio, yield tensile strength of reinforcement, and width of square loaded area. The output parameter of the model was punching shear strength. The results from the adaptive neural fuzzy inference model were compared to those from the simplified punching shear equations of ACI, BS-8110, Model Code 2010, Euro-Code 2, and also experimental results. The root mean square error (RMSE) and the correlation coefficient (R) were used as evaluation criteria. Parametric studies were presented using ANFIS to assess the effect of each input parameter on the punching shear strength and to compare ANFIS results to those from the equations proposed in commonly used codes. The results showed that the ANFIS model is simple and provided the most accurate predictions of the punching shear strength of two-way flat concrete slabs without shear reinforcement. © 2019 by the authors.ANFIS; Concrete; Punching shear; Two-way flat slabsMenetrey, P., Synthesis of punching failure in reinforced concrete (2002) Cem.

The flow is uniform and parallel to the moving flat plate, and both flat plate and flow are moving on the same directions. The investigated parameters in this study are power-law index, permeability parameter, Eckert number, volume fraction of nanoparticles, nanoparticles type, velocity ratio and heat absorption/generation parameter. The nanoparticles used in this paper are Al 2 O 3 , TiO 2 , Cu and CuO dispersed in sodium carboxymethyl cellulose/water as the base fluid. By using suitable transformations, the governing partial differential equations are converted into the ordinary differential equations, and after that, the resulting ODEs are solved with Runge–Kutta-Fehlberg fourth–fifth-order numerical method. The results of this investigation showed that heat transfer of Newtonian and non-Newtonian nanofluids in the presence of viscous dissipation and generation/absorption of heat has an interesting behavior: For Newtonian fluid, by increasing the amounts of high-conductive nanoparticles to carrying fluid, a higher heat transfer is not obtained. For instance, copper nanoparticles, despite having highest thermal conductivity compared to other nanoparticles, show the lowest local Nusselt number. However, for pseudo-plastic non-Newtonian nanofluids the observed trend was reversed. Furthermore, in both Newtonian and non-Newtonian nanofluids, the local Nusselt number decreased, by increasing injection parameter, heat generation or volume fraction of nanoparticles (in high Eckert numbers). That is while, by enhancing the heat absorption, velocity ratio, suction parameter or volume fraction of nanoparticles (in low Eckert number), the local Nusselt number augments. © 2018, Akadémiai Kiadó, Budapest, Hungary.Heat absorption/generation;

These compounds affect the growth and development of microorganisms and plants, and seriously harm the health of animals and humans. Some of these compounds may disrupt the normal function of the central nervous system, cause changes in the blood content, and adversely affect the function of lungs, kidneys, liver, and other organs. The long-termaction of chemical compounds may cause the development of cancer, allergy, dystrophy, physical and neurological degenerative processes, Alzheimer's, and Parkinson's. At the same time, fertilizers, pesticides, and sewage from industrial plants contaminate soil and water. Many physicochemical methods of treating chemical compounds of wastewater are available, but these methods are constrained because of their limited versatility, high cost, low efficiency, and interference from another wastewater constituent. These physicochemical methods also produce large quantities of sludge, posing a threat as a secondary pollutant. However, biological methods are available that are eco-friendly and completely mineralize organic pollutants. These methods have a wide range of applications, low running costs, effect complete mineralization of chemical compounds to nontoxic compounds, and are eco-friendly. They are dependent on microorganisms used in aerobic and anaerobic conditions, such as bacteria and fungi, algae, and other organisms present in the environment, and phytoremediation is a technology that should be considered for the remediation of contaminated sites because of its cost effectiveness, aesthetic advantages, and long-term applicability. This technology can be applied to metal pollutants that are amenable to phytostabilization, phytoextraction, phytotransformation, rhizosphere bioremediation, or phytoextraction. © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2019.

Its results influence a patient's life and outcome. To estimate the extent and main determinants of abnormal colonoscopic finding among adults attended to colonoscopic centre and assessed the validity of colonoscopy of clinical and pathological findings of colonoscopy. Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 23 was used for data analysis. Chi-Square test, and binary logistic regression analysis P value (0.05) was a cut-off point for measuring statistical association where less than (0.05) had a significant statistical association. the colonoscopic findings were as follow the normal (42.7%), internal hemorrhoid (27.5%), nonspecific inflammation (12.9%), polyp (11.2%), inflammatory bowel disease (3.9%), colorectal cancer (3.4%), and other diseases (3.9%) Some patients had more than one abnormality. The histopathological result of colonoscopic biopsies which were as follow non-specific inflammation (64.2%), colorectal cancer (15.4%), and inflammatory bowel disease and polyp the same percent (10.2%). There was a significant statistical association between age groups and specific diseases. Bleeding per-rectum is a pig predictor sign of lower gastrointestinal problems, and it is the mean cause of referral. According to site of the lesion: colonic polyp (45%), sigmoid polyp (30%), and rectal polyp (25%). While the distribution of carcinoma according to the site of location. Carcinoma of sigmoid (50%), carcinoma of colon (33.3%), and carcinoma of rectal (16%). Sigmoid represent the most common site of occurrence of carcinoma. The sensitivity of colonoscopy 100% while the specificity was 50%. Colonoscopy is 100% sensitive in diagnosis lower GIT problems. The most common cause of referral was bleeding per-rectum, and the most abnormal finding was an internal haemorrhoid. © 2018 Pharmascope Publications.

Then these granules either envelop within a capsule or compressed into tablets that differ in their efficiency of the coating. As our market was containing many brands of omeprazole brands that differ in their quality and efficiency of their coating, that to be investigated through this work by investigating their in-vitro stability within acidic media that equal to the acidity of the stomach — measuring the in-vitro stability of the coating of omeprazole through placing the pellets of omeprazole in contact with an acidic solution having pH similar to that of the stomach and by using different brands of omeprazole that available at pharmacies from different origins. Out of 3 brands of omeprazole was used in this work the 3 brands show good stability when the pellets become in contact with the acidic solution there was no release of active ingredient while in alkaline media the active ingredients were starting to release. Availability of different brands of omeprazole in the Iraqi pharmaceutical market needs to be investigated in term of the stability of their enteric coating against acidic solution because most of this pharmaceutics exposed sometimes to extreme storage conditions in term of temperature and humidity that may inversely affect the in-vitro stability and then the therapeutic efficacy of these medications. © 2018 Pharmascope Publications.

The solution represented by a nonlinear flow-based model of fast rerouting with the protection of such two network performance indicators as bandwidth and probability of packet loss is proposed. This model at the level of the flow conservation conditions takes into account the buffer limitedness of queues on the routers interfaces, which allowed controlling the probable overload of the link resource. The numerical example confirmed the adequacy of the offered model and the efficiency of the decisions made in relation to the fast rerouting of data traffic with the realization of the protection scheme for bandwidth and probability of packet loss. © 2019 IEEE.Bandwidth; Fast ReRoute; Probability of Packet Loss; Protection Scheme; QoS; SD-WANBandwidth; Packet loss; Probability; Quality of service; Data traffic; Fast reroute; Fast rerouting; Flow conservation; Nonlinear flow; Performance indicators; Protection schemes; QoS protections; Computer aided designCholda, P., Tapolcai, J., Cinkler, T., Wajda, K., Jajszczyk, A., Quality of resilience as a network reliability characterization tool (2009) IEEE Network, 23 (2), pp. 11-19; Tipper, D., Resilient network design: Challenges and future directions (2014) Telecommunication Systems, 56 (1), pp. 5-16; Rak, J., (2015) Resilient Routing in Communication Networks, , 1st edition, Springer; Mauthe, A., Hutchison, D., Cetinkaya, E.K., Ganchev, I., Rak, J., Sterbenz, J.P., Gunkelk, M., Gomes, T., Disaster-resilient communication networks: Principles and best practices (2016) Proc. 2016 8th International Workshop on Resilient Networks Design and Modeling (RNDM), pp. 1-10. , 13-15 September; Rak, J., Papadimitriou, D., Niedermayer, H., Romero, P., Information-driven network resilience: Research challenges and perspectives (2017) Optical Switching and Networking, 23, pp. 156-178. , January; White, R., Banks, E., (2018) Computer Networking Problems and Solutions: An Innovative Approach to Building Resilient, Modern Networks, , 1st Edition. 1 edition.

Hereby, the LSD-4 codes are produced via generating 224 codewords of 15 bits length. The LSD-4 codes length is extremely long (equal to 4096 bits); accordingly, the encoding/decoding by the LSD-4 codes becomes more compatible with optical speed and consistency. Apparently, increasing the length of coding is concurrent with the ODF speed. Our model is grounded on hiring the LSD-4 codes in the encoding/decoding process of the onboard ODF for optical routing serial. The net gain of plugging the planned LSD-4 codes in optical routing is obtained within 5- to 15-dB range for diverse optical routing forms at code length 4096 bits with Q-ary pulse-position modulation. The numeric and simulated results confirmed the significant improvements of the planned LSD-4 codes performance with ODF over the non-LSD-4 codes ODF counterparts. © 2019 Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE).atmospheric turbulence; channel coding; free-space optical; optical routing; pulse-position modulation; systematic distance-4 codingAtmospheric turbulence; Channel coding; Decoding; Encoding (symbols); Hamming distance; Pulse position modulation; Signal encoding; Code length; Code-words; Encoding/decoding; Free-space optical; Long codes; Optical routing; Simulated results; systematic distance-4 coding; Optical signal processingHuang, X.-H., 6-m/10-Gbps underwater wireless red-light laser transmission system (2018) Opt.

Since the spontaneous emission effect is an important factor in a microcavity the rate equations model has been reconsidered to include the Purcell spontaneous emission enhancement factor F and the spontaneous emission factor. It is found that the synchronization takes place under suitable system parameters. The results indicate that the coupling strength, the delay time in the transmitter, and the transmission time between the two lasers have significant effects on the synchronization quality while the stage number and the delay time in receiver have poor effects on the synchronization quality. Also, when the system is a closed-loop or open-loop, synchronization with poor dynamics occurs when the spontaneous emission factor is small while the synchronization happens in the open-loop system only when the spontaneous emission factor is large. Furthermore, when the system is a closed-loop, synchronization occurs when Purcell factor is large while the synchronization happens to the open-loop system of any values for the spontaneous emission factor and Purcell factor.

Developing an effective method to identify these transitions in sleep electroencephalogram (EEG) recordings is an ongoing challenge, as there are typically hundreds of such transitions in each recording. This paper proposes a statistical model and a method based on wavelet Fourier analysis to detect sleep spindles. In this work, spindle detection is achieved in two phases: a training phase and a testing phase. An EEG signal is first divided into segments, using a sliding window technique. The size of the window is 0.5 s, with an overlap of 0.4 s. Then, each EEG segment is decomposed using a discrete wavelet transform into different levels of decompositions. The wavelet detail coefficient at level 3 (D3) is selected from these parameters, and this is passed through a fast Fourier transform to identify the desired frequency bands {α β θ δ γ}. Ten statistical characteristics are extracted from each band. Nonparametric Kruskal-Wallis one-way analysis of variance is used to select the important features, representing each of the 0.5 s EEG segments. To detect all possible occurrences of sleep spindles in the original EEG signals, four different window sizes of 0.25, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 s are also tested. Finally, the extracted features are used as the input to four classifiers to detect the sleep spindles: a least-squares support vector machine (LS-SVM), K-nearest neighbours, a K-means algorithm and a C4.5 decision tree. The obtained results demonstrate that the proposed method yields optimal results with a window size of 0.5 s. The maximum averages of accuracy, sensitivity and specificity are 97.9%, 98.5% and 97.8%, respectively. This method can efficiently detect spindles in EEG signals, and can assist sleep experts in analysing EEG signals. © 2018 Elsevier LtdEEG signals; Sleep spindles; Statistical model; Wavelet fourier analysisDecision trees; Discrete wavelet transforms; Electroencephalography; Fast Fourier transforms; Fourier analysis; K-means clustering; Nearest neighbor search; Signal processing; Sleep research; Support vector machines; Trees (mathematics); EEG signals; Least squares support vector machines; Sensitivity and specificity; Sleep electroencephalogram; Sleep spindles; Sliding window techniques; Statistical characteristics; Statistical modeling; Feature extraction; analysis of variance; article; decision tree; decomposition; discrete wavelet transform; Fourier analysis; Fourier transformation; human; k nearest neighbor; least square analysis; sensitivity and specificity; sleep spindle; support vector machineAhmed, B., Redissi, A., Tafreshi, R., An automatic sleep spindle detector based on wavelets and the teager energy operator (2009) Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, IEEE, 2009, pp. 2596-2599; Akin, A., Akgul, T., Detection of sleep spindles by discrete wavelet transform (1998) Bioengineering Conference, 1998.

The qcs have been measured through performing the Cone Penetration Tests (CPTs) on soil at four locations in the site of water intake project in Nasiriyah, Iraq as part of a soil site investigation program. The suggested applied vertical loads were 50–550 kPa. The qcs below the foundation level were considered uncertain and were simulated as random variables. Different probability distributions (PDs) were used to simulate the qcs values: normal, logistic, lognormal, Gamma, Weibull, Inverse Gaussian and Rayleigh distributions. Choosing the appropriate distribution was based on a goodness of fit (GOF) test. Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) was used to model the limit state function (LSF) based on a direct solution. It was found that the bearing capacity is sensitive to both the coefficient of variation of qcs and applied vertical load. It also was found that different PDs for soil parameters may result in the different PD of BC. Varying the width of shallow foundations changes the values of qcs and their probability distributions. According to this change, the reliability index of BC is slightly affected by the width of the foundation. The reliability index shows a good value at stress 100 kN/m2 higher than the target reliability and the reliability equal to zero at 550 kN/m2. A nonlinear behavior was observed between the probability of bearing capacity failure and the coefficient of variation of the applied vertical load. © 2018Bearing capacity (BC); Cone Penetration Test (CPT); Monte Carlo simulation (MCS); Reliability analysis; Shallow foundationThe author genuinely thankful for the civil engineering department in the college of engineering, University of Thi-Qar through the support of the university to conduct the research and give the general facilities for research.

The implementation of a two-level hierarchy of calculations is proposed on the SDN controllers with multicore architecture where the lower level is responsible for calculating the routing variables, and the upper level is for solutions obtained from the lower level coordination. In proposed multicore architecture of SDN controller the border routers of the network will be matched by the controller core, which performs the function of calculation the routing variables. The separate core of the controller will act as a coordinator with function of link overload prevention. Application of the proposed method allows to increase the scalability of routing solutions, reduce the amount of service information that circulates in the network, as well as reduce the complexity of the whole method. © 2018 IEEE.Coordination; Flow; Hierarchical method; Load balansing routing; Multicore arcitecture; SDN controllerControllers; Network architecture; Network routing; Software architecture; Border routers; Coordination; Flow; Hierarchical method; Load-balancing routing; Multi core; Multicore architectures; Service information; Computer architectureStallings, W., (2016) Foundations of Modern Networking: SDN, NFV, QoE, IoT, and Cloud, , 1st Edition.

The proposed method consists of four main steps. Firstly, in order to investigate which method is most suitable to decompose the EEG signals into frequency bands, we implement separately a fast Fourier transform (FFT) or discrete wavelet transform (DWT). Secondly, each band is partitioned into k windows and a set of statistical features are extracted from each window. Thirdly, the InfoGain is used to rank the extracted features and the most important ones are selected. Lastly, these features are forwarded to a least square support vector machine (LS-SVM) classifier to classify the EEG. This scheme is implemented and tested on a benchmark EEG database and also compared with other existing methods, based on some performance evaluation measures. The experimental results show that the proposed FFT combined with InfoGain method can generate better performance than the DWT method. This method achieves 100% accuracy for five different pairs: healthy people with eyes open (z) versus epileptic patients with activity seizures (s); healthy people with eyes closed (o) versus s; epileptic patients with free seizures (n) versus s; patients with free seizures epileptic (f) versus s; and z versus o. The accuracies obtained for two other pairs, (o vs. n) and (z vs. f), are 95.62 and 88.32%, respectively. These two pairs have more similarities with each other, leading to a lower level of accuracy. The proposed approach outperforms six other reported methods and achieves an 11.9% improvement. Finally, it can be concluded that the proposed FFT combined with InfoGain method has the capacity to detect epileptic seizures in EEG most effectively. © 2018, Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.Electroencephalogram; Epileptic seizures; Frequency domain; Information gain technique; Least square support vector machineBenchmarking; Blending; Discrete wavelet transforms; Fast Fourier transforms; Frequency domain analysis; Neurophysiology; Signal reconstruction; Support vector machines; Electroencephalogram (EEG) datum; Epileptic seizures; Frequency domains; Information gain; Least Square Support Vector Machine (LS-SVM); Least square support vector machines; Performance evaluations; Statistical features; ElectroencephalographyMinistry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, MHE&SR; Ministère de l’Enseignement Supérieur et de la Recherche Scientifique, MESRSAcknowledgements The first author acknowledges the Iraqi government (Ministry of Higher Education and scientific research) for providing PhD scholarship.The first author acknowledges the Iraqi government (Ministry of Higher Education and scientific research) for providing PhD scholarship.Acharya, U.R., Vidya, K.S., Ghista, D.N., Computer-aided diagnosis of diabetic subjects by heart rate variability signals using discrete wavelet transform method (2015) Knowl Based Syst, 81, pp. 56-64; Al Ghayab, H.R., Li, Y., Abdulla, S., Classification of epileptic EEG signals based on simple random sampling and sequential feature selection (2016) Brain Inform, 3 (2), pp. 85-91; Al Ghayab, H.R., Li, Y., Siuly, S., Developing a tunable Q-factor wavelet transform based algorithm for epileptic EEG feature extraction (2017) International Conference on Health Information Science, pp. 45-55. , Springer, Cham; Al Ghayab, H.R., Li, Y., Siuly, S., Epileptic EEG signal classification using optimum allocation based power spectral density estimation (2018) IET Signal Process, 12 (6), pp. 738-747; Amin, H.U., Malik, A.S., Ahmad, R.F., Feature extraction and classification for EEG signals using wavelet transform and machine learning techniques (2015) Australas Phys Eng Sci Med, 38, pp. 139-149; Chua, K.C., Chandran, V., Acharya, U.R., Application of higher order spectra to identify epileptic EEG (2011) J Med Syst, 35, pp. 1563-1571; Deng, J.D., Simmermacher, C., Cranefield, S., A study on feature analysis for musical instrument classification (2008) IEEE Trans Syst Man Cybern B Cybern, 38, pp. 429-438; Gajic, D., Djurovic, Z., Di Gennaro, S., Classification of EEG signals for detection of epileptic seizures based on wavelets and statistical pattern recognition (2014) Biomed Eng Appl Basis Commun, 26, p. 1450021; Gajic, D., Djurovic, Z., Gligorijevic, J., Detection of epileptiform activity in EEG signals based on time-frequency and non-linear analysis (2015) Front Comput Neurosci, 9, p. 38; Han, J., Kamber, M., Pei, J., (2011) Data mining: concepts and techniques, , 3, Elsevier, Amsterdam; Heckbert, P., Fourier transforms and the fast Fourier transform (FFT) algorithm (1995) Comput Graph, 2, pp. 15-463; Kaya, Y., Uyar, M., Tekin, R., 1D-local binary pattern based feature extraction for classification of epileptic EEG signals (2014) Appl Math Comput, 243, pp. 209-219; Koprinska, I., Feature selection for brain-computer interfaces (2010) New Frontiers in Applied Data Mining, 5669, pp. 106-117. , Theeramunkong T, (ed), PAKDD 2009.

Characteristics of EEG signals are complex, being non-stationarity, aperiodic and nonlinear in nature. EEG signals are a combination of sustained oscillation and non-oscillation transients that are challenging to deal with using linear approaches. Method: This research proposes a new scheme based on a tunable Q-factor wavelet transform (TQWT) and a statistical approach to analyse various EEG recordings. Firstly, the proposed method decompose EEG signals into different sub-bands using the TQWT method, which is parameterized by its Q-factor and redundancy. This method depends on the resonance of a signal, instead of frequency or scaling as in the Fourier and wavelet transforms. Secondly, using a statistical feature extraction on the sub-bands to divide each sub-band into n windows, and then extract several statistical features from each window. Finally, the extracted features are forwarded to a bagging tree (BT), k nearest neighbor (k-NN), and support vector machine (SVM) as classifiers to evaluate the performance of the proposed feature extraction technique. Results: The proposed method is tested on two different EEG databases: Bonn University database and Born University database. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed feature extraction algorithm with thek-NN classifier produces the best performance compared with the other two classifiers. Comparison with existing methods: In order to further evaluate the performances, the proposed scheme is compared with the other existing methods in terms of accuracy. The results prove that the proposed TQWT based feature extraction method has great potential to extract discriminative information from brain signals. Conclusion: The outcomes of the proposed technique can assist doctors and other health experts to identify diversified EEG categories. © 2018 Elsevier B.V.Classification; Electroencephalogram (EEG) signal; Epilepsy; Tunable Q-factor wavelet transformArticle; data analysis software; data base; decision tree; electroencephalogram; epilepsy; epileptic patient; feature extraction; Fourier transformation; human; k nearest neighbor; priority journal; signal processing; support vector machine; wavelet transformation; algorithm; brain; electroencephalography; epilepsy; pathophysiology; physiology; statistical model; wavelet analysis; Algorithms; Brain; Brain Waves; Electroencephalography; Epilepsy; Humans; Models, Statistical; Wavelet AnalysisMinistry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, MHE&SRThe first author acknowledges the Iraqi government (Ministry of Higher Education and scientific research) for providing him a PhD scholarship to undertake the study.Acharya, U.R., Sudarshan, V.K., Adeli, H., Santhosh, J., Koh, J.E., Puthankatti, S.D., Adeli, A., A novel depression diagnosis index using nonlinear features in EEG signals (2015) Eur.

Risperidone is frequently the medication used that is licensed by (FDA), it revealed encouraging and favorable initial relief of both communication skill and social interaction through family, teacher impression and clinical interview at scoring levels of severity by downward fluctuation of its drug administration started with low dose from 0.5 mg per day with gradual increase according to tolerability and body weight until reaching 3 mg per day in divided dose that shows no extrapyramidal side effects. They were 5 years ago and above examined in a private clinic in Nassiriya city in Iraq, all cases were presented by their families for odd, aggressive behaviours and communication problems, they were exposed for two scales in first and second session to diagnose autism by ASD assessment scale and severity of the disorder by ASD assessment scale grading and scoring, all patients were treated with Risperidone for one month duration exposed to the same steps in the second interview to reveal the improvement rate, comorbid and probable risk also re-evaluated. Descriptive tables were used to reveal all percentages before and after the treatment. All participating children families gave oral and written consent. All steps, diagnosis and drug side effects were discussed to parents with hotline connection with them. Typical antipsychotic Risperidone has magic and dramatic effects on controlling children overactivity, relatively verbal improvement and improves his acceptance to settle in the centre of autism and schools. © 2018 Pharmascope Publications.

The controlling parameters that are examined are four coherent optical fields, three tunneling components, and incoherent optical pumping. This work differs from others by the inclusion of a wetting layer (WL) and the calculation of momenta for each transition. The results showed that the entropy depends on the difference between the carrier occupations in the states of these two quantum dots (QDs). It is also shown that the probe optical field reduces the entropy, while the pumping field increases it. Turning off the main tunneling component removes the entropy, while high WL–QD momentum increases the entropy. Taking the same value of momentum for all transitions (the case of other works) underestimates the entropy. © 2019 Optical Society of America.Entropy; Ladders; Nanocrystals; Optical pumping; Semiconductor quantum dots; Coherent optical fields; Controlling parameters; Double quantum dots; Optical field; Quantum entropy; Wetting layer; Quantum entanglementMahmoudi, M., Sahrai, M., Absorption-free superluminal light propagation in a quantum-dot molecule (2009) Physica E, 41, pp. 1772-1778; Mehmannavaz, M.R., Electrical and optical control of entanglement entropy in a coupled triple quantum dot system (2015) J.

The deep drawing die was designed and constructed to carry out the experimental work required to produce a hexagonal cup with inner dimensions (41.5 mm by 36 mm), (28 mm) height drawn from a circular flat blank (80 mm diameter), made from low carbon steel (AISI 1008). The analysis program (ANSYS 18.0) to perform the finite element method to perform the analytical side of the search. Four types of wall corner radius of punch (R c =1, 3, 5,7mm) with constant punch profile radius equal to (R p = 6mm) and dieprofile radius equal to (R d =6 mm) were used. From experimental work and simulation results, it has been found that, the maximum thinning take place at corner of the cup area with a wall corner radius of punch equal to (R c = 1 mm) and maximum thickening take place at the at cup end with wall corner radius of punch equal to (R c = 7 mm), the maximum values of strains (radial, hoop, thickness and effective) take place at end of cup with wall corner radius of punch equal to (R c = 7 mm). © TJPRC Pvt.

First, the characterization of the PWAS materials shows that no significant change in the microstructure after exposure to high temperature and nuclear radiation, and the PWAS transducer can be used in harsh environments for structural health monitoring (SHM) applications. Next, PWAS active sensing of various damage types in aluminum and composite structures are explored. PWAS transducers can successfully detect the simulated crack and corrosion damage in aluminum plates through the wavefield analysis, and the simulated delamination damage in composite plates through the damage imaging method. Finally, the novel use of PWAS transducers as acoustic emission (AE) sensors for in situ AE detection during fatigue crack growth is presented. The time of arrival of AE signals at multiple PWAS transducers confirms that the AE signals are originating from the crack, and that the amplitude decay due to geometric spreading is observed. © 2019 by the authors.

Moreover, the present paper examines the positive roles of glucose and lipid on the correction of oxidative stress diabetes-related complications in alloxan diabetic rats. To acheive the objective of study, 24 of female rats ((Rattus norvegicus) have been used. The division of animals was done in 4 groups (6 each). Diabetes was enhanced by injected intraperitoneally with alloxan at a single dose in body weight; 125 mg/kg. Diabetic rats go through a specific rise (p ≤ 0.05) in the glucose levels, triglyceride, total cholesterol, very-low-density lipoprotein, low-density lipoprotein, and malondialdehyde and an important noticeable decrease in high-density lipoprotein, glutathione, and albumin. In addition, taurine supplementation caused a significant reduction in the glucose, total cholesterol, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein, and very low-density lipoprotein levels. The obtained results revealed that taurine exhibited an inhibitory effect on oxidative stress indices (MDA) and improved antioxidant levels. Taurine could have potential as a pharmaceutical drug for diabetes mellitus (DM), and this invites further studies in this field. © 2019, International Journal of Pharmaceutical Quality Assurance.

The prevalence ranges from 8%-13% according to the definitions used and residents utilized. Materials and methods: Illness with the infertile ovarian syndrome and a medical referral were studied to Al Hussain Educational Hospital to the infertility center during the period from August to November 2017. The diagnosis of the illness was serene under the supervision of gynecologists and according to clinical indications. Laboratory discovery. This project investigated 80 healthy people and 90 illness with polycystic ovary syndrome. Hormone levels, including prolactin, TSH, FSH and TSH, and blood samples were measured, and the IL-6 level concentration was examined. Results: Results exemplify that there was no important alteration between illness and controls regarding age, TSH, and prolactin, while the LH and estradiol were suggestively advanced in illness in comparison to controls, P-value <0.001. The FSH and progesterone were suggestively lesser in illness as compared to controls, p-value ≤ 0.001. Results displays that there was an important difference of IL-6 altitudes in illness comparison to controls, P-value < 0.001. Conclusion: This indicates the close connotation between the ovary and pituitary axis. The polycystic ovary syndrome is an inflammatory illness that will lead to the rise of many inflammatory cytokines such as; IL-6. © 2019, International Journal of Pharmaceutical Quality Assurance.

Understanding the biology of this tumor is a prerequisite for selecting an appropriate treatment. Cell cycle alterations are seen in many cancers such as breast cancer. Newly popular targeted agent in breast cancer are cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors (CDKIs), which are agents inhibiting the function of cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) is a member of protein kinase family. It plays an important role in regulating various events of eukaryotic cell division cycle. Accumulated evidences indicated that over expression of CDKs should cause the abnormal regulation of cell-cycle, which would be directly associated with hyper proliferation in cancer cells. They are categorized as selective and non-selective inhibitors of CDK. CDKIs have been tried as monotherapy andcombination therapy. In this review, we present the structure, functions and activation of CDKs by cyclin binding with special focus on recent advances in the development of different CDKI in breast cancer. © 2019.

Thirty two of rats were used in the current study which divided into four groups, the first group administrated normal saline considered as control group. The second, third and fourth groups were infected experimentally by Salmonella typhimurium at dose (1*108) for periods (one, seven and fourteen days, respectively). The current results found many histopathological changes in liver and kidney of all treated groups with bacteria. These histological changes in liver were included congestion, inflammation clearly, enlargement of central vein and sinusoids, hypertrophy of hepatocytes. Also, some histological damages were observed in kidney of infected groups like hemorrhage, shrinkage, absence and death of glomeruli, enlargement of Bowman's space, infiltration of inflammatory cells and congestion. © 2019 Ecological Society of India.

Specifically, the average secrecy capacity (ASC), secure outage probability (SOP), the lower bound of SOP (SOPL), and the probability of strictly positive secrecy capacity (SPSC) are derived using two different values of the fading parameters, namely, m and μ which represent the multipath and shadowing severity impacts, respectively. Firstly, when the fading parameters are arbitrary values, the performance metrics are derived in exact expressions in terms of the extended generalised bivariate Fox's H-function (EGBFHF) that has been widely implemented in the open literature. In the second case, to obtain simple mathematically tractable expressions in terms of analytic functions as well as to gain more insight on the behaviour of the physical layer security over Fluctuating Beckmann fading channel models, m and μ are assumed to be integer and even numbers, respectively. In addition, the asymptotic behaviour for all the studied performance metrics has been provided. The numerical results of this analysis are verified via Monte Carlo simulations. © 2013 IEEE.average secrecy capacity; Fluctuating Beckmann fading channel; probability of strictly positive secrecy capacity; secure outage probabilityFading channels; Monte Carlo methods; Analytic functions; Asymptotic behaviour; Fading channel models; Numerical results; Outage probability; Performance analysis; Performance metrics; Physical layer security; Physical layerWyner, A.D., The wire-tap channel (1975) Bell Syst.

Inflammatory cytokines plays a crucial role in the pathophysiology of CVD. Therefore, this study aim to determined role of IL6, TNF-α and TLR4 on progression CVD in infected and non infected patients. A retrospective hospital study was performed to 280 patients with age range between 20-65 years attending to Heart Medical Center of Thi-qar province during 2018 divided into: 200 (71.4%) catheterized patients represent by diagnostic, therapeutic catheter and both.As well as 80(28.6%) surgery patients included Coronary artery bypass grafting CABG, valve replacement and underwent heart defects surgery. The Swabs, Catheter tip and blood samples were taken from all patients, surgery instruments and cultured on blood culture bottle for 24 h at 37ºC then sub-culture on enrichment and differential media. The results showed that positive bacterial culture appear in 62 cardiac catheterized patients and 18 of cardiac surgery patients, some specimens show poly-microbial growth. So the total isolates reach to 93 isolates, 75 of them were G +ve bacteria and 18 were G-ve bacteria and 200 specimens gave negative results for bacterial growth. The level of IL-6, TNF-a and TLR-4 estimated by ELISA and show a significant increase in CVD patients in compare with healthy control. The level of IL-6, TNF-a and TLR-4 highly increase in infected cardiac patients then in non-infected patients with statically significant different as well as in catheterized patients more than cardiac surgery patients with no significant difference between them. In conclusion: infection in CVD had a significant role in progression the disease that lead to highly increased in TLR-4,TNF- α, IL, 6 levels this reflecting the inflammatory response in the patients and causes progression the disease. © 2019 Plant Archives.

Total isolates of S. aureus (n =63) recovered from 200 vaginal swabs from women with bacterial vaginal infections, 113 swabs from and tonsillitis infections and from 80 nasal swabs of healthy students in the college of Medicine, Thi-qar University through the period from February to November, 2017, the frequency of ebpS and V8 genes was determine by PCR. The results showed that (100%) of S. aureus isolates from tonsillitis were carried ebpS gene with high significant differences (p< 0.001) when compared with those that isolated from nose and vagina with carriage percent 40% and 50%, respectively. While, there were no significant differences between isolates of S. aureus which isolated from vagina and nose at (P=0.061). A S. aureus isolates from vagina and nose were not harbored V8 gene (0.0%), while this gene founded in 35.29% of tonsil isolates with significant differences under (P<0.001).The recent results recorded a high prevalence of ebpS gene among S. aureus isolates from different sources than V8 gene and isolates differ in their harboring of the virulence genes according to the source of the infection which effect on the bacterial colonization and increased the pathogenicity. © 2019 Plant Archives.

The efficiency of the considered methods are illustrated by some examples. The results obtained by LFLVIM and LFLDM are compared with the results obtained by LFVIM. The results reveal that the suggested algorithms are very effective and simple, and can be applied for linear and nonlinear problems in sciences and engineering. © 2019 by the authors.

A wide range of bacterial infection correlated with progress CVD. So this search aim to detect the bacterial type in CV patients. The total number of patients that attended the Herat Medical Center Thi-qar province from April to November (2018) were 280 which were further divided in two groups. These comprised of two hundred (7.14%) patients with catheterization including 100(50%) diagnostic catheters, collective 20(10%) therapeutic and diagnostic catheters as well as 80(40%) therapeutic catheters. Moreover, it was observed to be that 2(27.5%) patients went through heart defect surgery, 30(37.5%) patients signified valve replacement surgery, 80(28.6%) symbolized (CABG) coronary artery bypass grafting surgery. The Swabs, Catheter tip and blood samples were taken from all patients and surgery instruments and Cultured on blood culture bottle for 24 h at 37C then sub-culture on enrichment and differential media. The results showed that positive bacterial culture appear in 62 (31%) cardiac catheterized patients, some of them showed polymicrobial infection up to 70 bacterial isolates out of which 138(69%) showed no growth, while G-ve bacteria are of about 15(21.4%) & G +ve are of 55(78.6%). However, surgical patients verified 18(22.5%) gram positive bacterial growth while presented more than one bacterial category. Likewise, total isolate number improved to twenty three isolates of bacteria in which 62(77.5%) represented no growth, 20(87%) showed isolates of G +ve and 3(13%) presented G-ve isolates. Both type of patients discovered major common pathogen S. aureus while following with viridans streptococcus & St. pyogenes. G-ve isolates showed that Enterobacter cloacae most common in catheterization patients and Klebsiella pneumonia in surgery patients. In conclusion: infection in CVD had a significant role in progression the disease that lead to serious morbidity and even mortality. So accurate diagnosis to bacterial infection increase the success therapy and avoid complication of disease. © 2019, Connect Journal.Bacterial profile; Cardiac surgery; Cardiovascular diseases; Catheteralpha hemolytic Streptococcus; Article; bacterial growth; bacterial infection; bacterium isolation; cardiovascular disease; catheter infection; cause of death; controlled study; coronary artery bypass graft; disease association; Enterobacter cloacae; heart catheterization; heart valve replacement; human; Iraq; Klebsiella pneumoniae; life expectancy; major clinical study; nonhuman; Staphylococcus aureusAmany Shakeir, J.; Department of Pathological Analysis, Iraq; email: amanybiosciense@yahoo.comConnect Journal09725075EnglishBiochem.

However, despite the dissimilarities in their nature, all construction projects are intended to be successful and profitable. A successful construction project is a project that completed within the intended time frame and budget, with acceptable quality, and no serious accidents. Successful managers lead and motivate different players of a project towards achieving the same goal and accomplish construction projects� objectives. Similar perception is the glue that holds all players collaborate and work together towards the same goals. Although the difference in perceptions is inevitable, it raises challenges that can hinder a project to succeed. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to 1) assess how construction managers perceive the relative values of safety, quality, cost, and time and 2) examine the difference between the perceptions of project managers and intermediate-level managers and workers. To fulfill the research objectives, 48 construction employees across the U.S. participated in this study. The results showed that safety has the highest relative importance in the perception of managers compared to the other factors. The findings revealed that there is a significant difference between the perception of construction project managers and superintendents concerning project cost (p-value<0.01) but not safety, quality, and time (p-value>0.1). This research can help construction professionals and practitioners to identify the difference in perceptions among key players and enhance managerial efforts to align dissimilar views towards the success of construction projects. � 2019 Canadian Society for Civil Engineering.

What factors influence the patterns found in these networks? Do social norms have any role in shaping these patterns? While construction worker interactions have been studied in many ways, network-based interactions are scarcely investigated. Additionally, the limited attempts in social network construction safety research have not used inferential aspects in studying the topic. Using these perspectives and questions as a starting point, the present study investigates the application of Exponential Random Graph Models (ERGMs) in construction safety research. In the study, an exploration of ERGMs is introduced theoretically by explaining the basics of the modelling, and practically by introducing a simple case study to enhance understanding of how ERGMs can be used. The research methods include a literature review and an analysis of observational data from the construction field. The results show that both approaches support the idea that ERGMs are a beneficial and capable tool that can be used in safety research. Additionally, the findings show that the probability of having a denser network with regard to safety risk is higher than it should be to have a safe jobsite based on the fact that the higher connectivity, the higher the possibility for a worker being injured. The contribution of this study is the introduction of a new inferential procedure for analyzing worker interactions on construction jobsites with respect to safety. � 2019 Canadian Society for Civil Engineering.

The study presented in this paper aims to investigate the interaction properties that impact safety issues on jobsites. To meet this objective, periodic observations of the work taking place on a building construction project were conducted. During the observations, tens of hours of video recordings of workers conducting their traditional jobs/tasks were taken. After the completion of the work, an analysis of the two-mode networks for the worker and design element interactions using the social network analysis method was conducted. Two design element cases were analyzed, the concrete slab and steel beam components of the structure. The analysis shows that the workers are highly connected when considering the worker-design element interaction. To some extent, this result confirms the impact of design elements on the risk level of a worker. In addition to investigating the risk results for different trades on the jobsite, this study is unique in that it is the first in construction safety research to develop and analyze two-mode networks on top of video observations. The construction community can benefit from this study by extending current knowledge of the interactions that might lead to indirect risks, and then planning the work in a way that prevents and/or controls these interactions. � 2019 Canadian Society for Civil Engineering.

Leaves on acute toxicity in female rats and anti-bacterial in vitro. The working of this thesis involves the following terms: Analytical study involved extraction, isolation, and identification of polyphenolic content of Capparis spinosa L. extract. The UV-Vis Spectra and high-performance liquid chromatography of extracted polyphenols are proved the presence of (Gallic acid, Caffeic acid, Coumaric acid, Vanillic acid, Syringic acid, Ferulic acid, Chlorogenic acid, Rutin and Quercetin) in the extract. Acute toxicity: in vivo study included of the extract was performed on four groups of rats (6 rats in each group). After treatment of different concentrations of Capparis spinosa L. extract (25, 50 and 100 mg/kg B.W) and after 72 hr of treatment, no mortality in all rats of experiments can be observed. This indicated that extract is orally non-toxic. Antibacterial study: four types of bacteria, two Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilus) and two Gram-negative (Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa) have been used to investigate the antibacterial activity of the extract. The extract is actively worked against both types of bacteria. Furthermore, the highest activity of extracted polyphenolic for C. spinosa against showed maximum activity against pathogens E.coli and Pseudo (gram-negative) (12mm) and minimum activity in Staph (gram-positive) (10mm) and inhibition zone against Bacillus (gram-positive) (11mm). © 2019 Plant Archives.

The inoculation was consisted of (P. fluorescence), (B. megaterium) and Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in the presence of rock phosphate nanoparticles (3 kg ha-1). The design of experiments was according to the (RCBD) with three replicates. The results showed that all the treatments were statistically significant for all the parameters of the barley plant as compared to control treatment (T0). The highest value of studied parameters was in the treatment of co-inoculation between all bacteria and fungi (T3), which gave a significant increase in the rate of plant height, No. of tillers, length of the ear, No. of ear, No. of grains per ear, weight of grains per ear, grain yield and biological yield, respectively, (52.33 cm), (333.25 m2), (10.92 cm), (330.60 m2), (35), (330.60 g), (6.39 t ha-1) and (16.95 t ha-1). The use of Phosphate solubilizing bacteria enhanced colonies rate and spores number of mycorrhizal fungi at the barley rhizosphere. This helps in solubility of the mineral phosphate, contributes to the biogeochemical phosphorus cycling, and provides nutrients to the plant, which leads to increase productivity. © 2019 Plant Archives.

Hadif W.M.56771371900;Interaction effects of drought episode after temporary wilting point and gibberellic acid (GA3) on the growth and yield of sesame (Sesamum indicum L.)2019Plant Archives19243074315https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85079878323&partnerID=40&md5=a6744f2a298612a38d324ded19e41e52Agriculture and marshes college, University of Thi Qar, IraqHadif, W.M., Agriculture and marshes college, University of Thi Qar, IraqFields Experiments were conducted in the year 2018 at the Samara town in Salah Al-Deen governorate to evaluate the effect of soaking seeds with Gibberellic acid (GA3) on the enhance the ability of sesame plants to drought tolerance. The Gibberellic acid GA3 application included six concentrations as (0, 50, 100, 150, 200, 250) ppm and then exposed the sesame plants to various droughts periods (0, 24, 48, 72, 96) hour after wilting point through (30, 60, 90) days after planting date. The results of this study showed significant differences in the all traits that’s studied (growth, yield and chemical characters of sesame seeds), where the seed socking with GA3 (200) ppm and (48) hours after wilting point showed that the highest ranges of total chlorophyll gm/ fresh tissues, ratio of chlorophyll a: b, the ratio of root: leaves, sucrose / leaf, glucose/ leaf, starch/ leaf, total carbohydrate/ leaf, weight of 1000 grains gm, biology yield / plant, total grain yield tan / ha, (%fat, %protein) in the sesame seeds, while the seeds that’s soacking with (0) GA3 and then the plants exposed to 96 drought hours after wilt point were given the lowest values in all those traits. The results of this study showed that the increased of the concentration of GA3 that applicate on the sesame seeds has increased the ability of sesame plants to drought tolerance, the evidence showed that the plants that were planted without the application of (GA3) and exposed to different periods of drought have achieved the lowest rates in all studied traits, the results suggested that GA3 application is potentially promising for enhancing plant growth and sesame seeds quality. © 2019 Plant Archives.

Salt stress is a major abiotic stress which has many effects on the productivity of date palm in the world and Iraq. This study was conducted to test the effect of four concentrations of sodium chloride (0, 25, 50 and 75 mM) and four concentrations of trehalose sugar (0, 5, 10 and 15 g. L-1) in ionic content of somatic embryos of date palm c.v Um-Aldehine in vitro. The aim of this study is to improve date palm salt tolerance to salt stress. The results showed the following: The increase in sodium chloride concentration in culture media causes a significant increase of the concentrations of sodium and chloride ions. In addition, the treatment of sodium chloride (75 mM) achieved the highest averages and also it has a significant decrease in potassium, potassium to sodium ratio and nitrogen concentrations. The effects of increasing trehalose sugar concentration in culture media has a significant decrease of sodium and chloride ions concentrations, however, the treatment of (15 g. L-1) had achieved the lowest averages, besides, the treatment itself has a significant increase in potassium, potassium to sodium ratio and nitrogen concentrations. The results showed a significant effects of interaction between the treatments of sodium chloride concentrations and trehalose sugar concentrations in the whole studied characteristics. © 2019 Plant Archives.

The government Iraq has been seeking to apply electronic systems in government departments. Therefore, most employees' salaries have started to become electronic. However, this rapid shift from the manual processes to electronic methods has caused a number of problems. These include salary delay, hardware failure and employee fear of theft. This has led to a lack of confidence in the use of electronic transactions. Therefore, the motivation of this study is to find reasons for the problem of why some employers use electronic banking systems, while others do not. This empirical study sought to extend the technology acceptance model to determine the key factors that hamper the full application of electronic financial transaction methods in Iraq. For this purpose, the data was gathered from the employees in the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research as well as Ministry of Education, who have experience in online transactions and ATMs. The findings revealed that four out of eleven hypotheses show no significant impact on e-banking services' acceptance. In summation, factors such as accessibility, usefulness, trust and ease of use will enhance electronic banking services' acceptance. © Primrose Hall Publishing Group.Acceptance; ATM; E-banking services; SEM-PLSAdewoye, J., (2013) The impact of automatic teller machines on the cost efficiency of Nigeria, 75 (3), pp. 1-21; Agarwal, R., Prasad, J., Are individual differences germane to the acceptance of new information technologies?

Huet,1856; Hypecoum pendulum Linnaeus, 1753; Papaver fugax Poiret,1804; Papaver macrostomum Boissier & A. Huet, 1867; Papaver rhoeas Linnaeus, 1753 and Roemeria refracta de Candolle,1821. The results showed that the anticlinal cell walls of the adaxial surface were more thickened in P. fugax, H. pendulum, P. macrostomum and R.refracta, while it was thin in P. rhoeas. The current investigation finds three types of the stomata (i.e., anomocytic, paracytic and hemiparacytic), and the number of stomata on the adaxial epidermis ranged between 22.11 stomata mm2 in P. rhoeas and 69.30 stomata/mm2 in P. fugax; the stomatal index percentage on the adaxial surface was 15.04% in P. macrostomum and 4.14% in P. rhoeas. The type of the mesophyll was bifacial (dorsiventral) in structure for the species. Stems gave a good character in separation of the species; shape and size of cortex cells, and the numbers of cortex layers were taxonomically significant. The observations of this study showed six types of trichomes that were non-glandular biseriated, triseriated or multiseriated, unicellular with multicellular short hairs and finally uniseriate long hairs (in G. grandiflorum). P. rhoeas recognized by found glandular short hairs. © 2019 University of Baghdad - Iraq Natural History Reseach Center and Museum.

Oxidative stress has been a well-studied etiology of abnormal semen parameters. Reduced fertilizing capacity is related to raised concentrations of reactive oxygen species in semen, which may damage the cell membrane. Multiple over-the-counter therapies have been historically used for male fertility like (Coenzyme-Q10, and Arginine). Objectives of study: To determine the role of some of the antioxidants in the improvement of the semen parameters in a subfertile male, improvement by (coenzyme, q10 l-arginine) therapy. Method: An experimental interventional non-randomized clinical trials study for exploring the male sub-fertility improvement by (L-arginine and Co-enzyme-Q10) therapies-in Al Nasiriyah City in 2019. Sample size The study contained three groups. Each group contains eight included responders. Male-patient responders who were diagnosed to have unexplained sub-fertility by a specialist gynecologist and urologist after excluding all organic causes of the subfertility, SPSS version 24 had been used for data analysis, paired t-test, correlation regression analysis had been used, where p-value < 0.005 considered as significant. Result: A total of 24 patients with infertility, their mean age was 32 + –6.52 years, had been recruited within the study, with a very high significant statistical difference (p-value < 0.005) between the first and the second occasions of measures and also between the first and the third occasions of measures, regarding volumes, counts, number of active sperms, number of active sperms, number of sluggish sperms, number of non-active sperms and number of abnormal sperms. By correlation regression analysis, there was a significant positive correlation of the independent parameters with the types of management modalities, where crossly examined by correlation regression. It was evident that all parameters except the counts are positively correlated by which p-value < 0.05. Conclusion: This study concluded that the administration of Co-Enzyme, L-Arginine, and combination of both show improvement in most of the parameters of the semen. The combination was the first improver of the semen parameter followed by arginine, then the Co-Enzyme only, the volume, sperm morphology, and the activity were the main parameters affected by the multiple strategies of treatment protocols. Adding of the co-Enzyme to the protocol of the L-Arginine as a good semen volume incrementer, activity enhancer, abnormal morphology reducer. © 2019, International Journal of Drug Delivery Technology.

Rossin College of Engineering and Applied Science, Lehigh UniversityPA 18015, United StatesLarge Eddy Simulation (LES) turbulence and multiphase Volume of Fluid (VOF) model are employed to predict the spatial and temporal characteristics of the turbulent flow structures near micro-hydrokinetic turbine operating in the proximity of a free surface. The turbine power performance and the free surface dynamics, and its interaction with the turbine are characterized by examining the results of both single-phase and multiphase flow simulations. Simulations are conducted at the turbine’s best efficiency point at a tip speed ratio of 1.86 with the rotation rate of 150 rpm and the free stream water velocity of 2.25 m/s. The multiphase flow simulation is carried out at Froude number of 1.06. The results indicate slight interaction between the deformed free surface and the turbine wake structures. Acceleration in the flow velocity is observed near the free surface due to the physical confinement. The results indicate that turbine power generation is reduced by about 2.0%, and the thrust coefficient is reduced by 1.60%. It is demonstrated that the turbine performance at this Froude number is hardly influenced by the presence of the free surface.

The hydrogels were prepared by free radical polymerization, characterized by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) to measure their molar weights (Mp) as well as other related properties. The density of crosslinking (DC) of the prepared hydrogels has been calculated by means of Flory-Rehner equation which confirmed that the (PNI-co-EG) have a higher crosslinking density (12.92×10-4) more than (PNI-co-AAm) (3.44×10-4) and this result was agreed with the su−r2face2 area that’s evaluated via Brunauer-Emm−2ett-2 Teller (BET) technique whichmorphology of the handled cottons have been studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Water swelling ratios (WSR) of all grafted cottons and for all treatment durations were determined at (35C) which pointed a changing in swelling and absorption ability between the grafted hydrogels over the treated cottons. © Institute of Advanced Scientific Research, Inc..

This study aims to assess indoor air quality of laboratory room environment for health industry sector. Open plate method was used to collect and culture of airborne fungi from 12 rooms of laboratories in faculty and hospital buildings. Identification of filamentous fungi grown on culture plates was based on standard mycological texts and manual. The results showed that the occurrence frequency and relative abundance were used to show the risk of airborne fungi. The colony forming unit of fungi species isolated from air samples of faculty and hospital laboratories were 304 and 83 respectively. Thirteen fungi genera including twenty-one species were identified overall air samples. The predominant fungi were Aspergillus, Penicillium and Alternaria among fungi. Among these species the most prevalence fungi was Penicillium chrysogenum at the highest at species level. Therefore, it is essential to set urgent steps to enhance the indoor air quality in laboratory environment such as providing air purification system in these labs. © The Author(s) 2019.Airborne fungi; Aspergillus; Indoor environment; Penicilliumairborne fungus; Alternaria alternata; Article; Aspergillus fumigatus; Aspergillus niger; Cladosporium cladosporioides; colony forming unit; filamentous fungus; fungus identification; hospital building; indoor air pollution; nonhuman; Penicillium aurantiogriseum; Penicillium chrysogenumAhmet, A., Timur, K., Burhan, S., Camur-Elipekbelgin, G.U., Isolation, G.H., Identification and seasonal distribution of airborne and waterborne fungi on terkos lake (Istanbul0Turkey) (2003) Journal of Basic Microbiology, 43 (2), pp. 83-95. , https://doi.org/10.1002/jobm.200390017; Bush, R.K., Prochnau, J.J., Alternaria-induced asthma (2004) Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 113 (2), pp. 227-234. , https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jaci.2003.11.023; Chan, W.Y., Mui, K.W., Wong, L.T., Fungal exposure risk in indoor environment (2008) Environmental Health, pp. 17-22; Durugbo, E.U., Kajero, A.O., Omoregie, E.I., Oyejide, N.E., A survey of outdoor and indoor airborne fungal spora in the Redemption City, Ogun State, southwestern Nigeria (2012) Aerobiologia, 29, pp. 201-216. , https://doi.org/10.1007/s10453-012-9274-y; Fernstrom, A., Goldblatt, M., (2013) Aerobiology and Its Role in the Transmission of Infectious Diseases, , https://doi.org/10.1155/2013/493960, Research article; Gabriel, M.F., Postigo, I., Tomaz, C.T., Martnez, J., Alternaria alternata allergens: Markers of exposure, phylogeny and risk of fungi-induced respiratory allergy (2016) Environment International, , https://doi.org/10.1016/j.envint.2016.01.003, Pergamon; Gonalves, C.L., Mota, F.V., Ferreira, G.F., Mendes, J.F., Pereira, E.C., Freitas, C.H., Nascente, P.S., Airborne fungi in an intensive care unit (2017) Brazilian Journal of Biology, 78 (2), p. 265. , https://doi.org/10.1590/1519-6984.06016; Gots, R.E., Layton, N.J., Pirages, S.W., Indoor health: Background levels of fungi (2003) American Industrial Hygiene Association Journal, 64 (4), pp. 427-438. , https://doi.org/10.1080/15428110308984836; Kiasat, N., Fatahinia, M., Mahmoudabadi, A.Z., Shokri, H., Qualitative and quantitative assessment of airborne fungal spores in the hospitals environment of Ahvaz city(2016) (2017) JundishapurJournalofMicrobiology, 10 (10), pp. 1-6. , https://doi.org/10.5812/jjm.14143; Kidd, S., Halliday, C., Alexiou, H., Ellis, D., (2016) Description of Medical Fungi, , www.mycology.adelaide.edu.au, Retrieved from; Kumari, N., Kumar, A., Khare, P., Fungal pollution in indoor environments (2016) IOSR Journal of Pharmacy and Biological Sciences, 11 (1), pp. 5-7; Martinez-Herrera, E.O., Frias De-Leon, M.G., Duarte-Escalante, E., Calderon-Ezquerro, M., Jiminez-Martinez, M., Acosta-Altamirano, G., Reyes Montes, M., Fungal diversity and Aspergillus species in hospital environments (2016) Annals of Agricultural and Environmental Medicine, 23 (2), pp. 264-269. , https://doi.org/10.5604/12321966.1203888, del C, del C, … del R; Mebi, G., Samuel, W., Ojogba, M., Relationship between fungal contamination of indoor air and health problems of some residents in JOS (2012) Air Quality - Monitoring and Modeling, pp. 1-19. , https://doi.org/10.5772/32160; Menezs, E.A., Carvalho, P.G., Trindade, E., Sobrinho, G., Cunha, F., Casrto, F., Airborne fungi causing respiratory allergy in patients from Fortaleza, Ceara, Brazil (2004) Bras.

However, some genetic variants have been linked to kidney disorders. Methods: This study involved 120 subjects (70 hemodialysis-treated patients with chronic renal failure and 50 healthy subjects as control). Serum biochemical parameters creatinine and urea were detected as diagnostic markers to renal functions. Sixty subjects (44 patients & 16 control) were genotyped for polymorphism of the enzyme gene conversion of angiotensin. The distribution of genotype and allele frequencies for angiotensin-converting enzyme-Deletion / Insertion single nucleotide polymorphisms has been evaluated in both groups. Results: The levels of biochemical parameters creatinine, and urea in renal failure patients increased significantly when compared with healthy. The angiotensin-converting enzyme genotypes distribution between subjects groups in Thi-Qar indicated that the percentage of DD genotype was found to be high in the group of 23 patients (52.3%), followed by ID 16 (36.3%) and II genotype 5 (11.4%). As, the genetic pattern in the control group showed that the genotype DD and ID patterns had the same percentage of 37.3%, followed by genotype II, 25%. Also, there is an increase of D-allele frequencies in the group of patients equivalent with healthy controls. Conclusions: The high frequency of angiotensin-converting enzyme DD genotype and D allele compared to control in chronic renal failure patients can be a significant factor in the development of renal failure. © 2019 International University of Sarajevo.ACE-D/I SNP polymorphisms; Chronic renal failure; Hemodialysis; PatientsLi, G., Genetic Factors for End-Stage Renal Disease (2015) Journal of Integrative Nephrology and Andrology, 2 (2), pp. 46-49; Babu, B.S., Suneetha, A., Babu, G.C., Kumar, Y.J.N., Karuna, G., Optimization, G.W., Medical Disease Prediction using Grey Wolf optimization and Auto Encoder based Recurrent Neural Network (2018) Period.

It tries to investigate how, what the researcher calls the imperative mood-lexical aspect dichotomy, affects certain stative verbs, and makes them used imperatively. The study aims to answer some questions like, 'Can all stative verbs be imperative? And if they are used imperatively, can such verbs be used for the default imperative purpose of commanding?' It is hypothesised that not all statives can be used imperatively, and such verbs cannot be used to fulfill commands which are the basic purpose behind imperatives. The procedures followed here include surveying the literature available for the imperative mood, aspect, statives and dynamics. Then, the researcher tries to establish the relation between mood and aspect, with special focus on such a relation in the domain of stative verbs that can be changed into dynamic. The researcher collects examples from the available references of English grammar to show and explain how such group of verbs can be used imperatively. The study concludes that such stative verbs, which the researcher calls the grey area verbs, suffer from a change in their semantics and specifically their lexical aspect. It is this kind of change which allows them to be used imperatively. It is also concluded that only stative verbs that change their lexical aspect into activity or process, may be capable of occurring in the imperative mood.. © Primrose Hall Publishing Group.Dynamics; Imperatives; Lexical aspect; StativesBrinton, L.J., The Structure Of Modern English.

This paper discusses the outcome of an experimental study consisting of 28 runs, with the aim of achieving minimum hydrodynamic forces and maximum energy dissipation downstream of hydraulic structures through stilling basins with directional diverting blocks, DDBs and straight wall baffle, and SWB. Stilling basins with a distinct configuration were made for this purpose. The hydraulic parameters that were involved were evaluated and experimentally analyzed using a rectangular flume in the hydraulic laboratory of the University of Thi-Qar, Thi-Qar, Iraq. Two different kinds of DDB models were made of wood with a triangular form, and the striate line impact wall had intiidinid tininiidni. The study showed that the configuration characterized by two rows of DDB with SWB between them is the most effective in dispersing energy. Out of all the suggested constructions, the DDB are more effective with two or more rows, rather than the SWB, but they are subjected to forces in the flow direction. © 2019 International University of Sarajevo.Baffles; Energy dissipation; Straight wallAzim, M.A., Gamal, M., Abdel Aal, A., Habib, A., (2012) Effect of End Sill In Radial Basin On Characteristics Of Free Hydraulic Jump, Water Structure Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, , University of ZagaZig, Egypt; AboulAtta, N., Ezizah, G., Yousif, N., Fathy, S., Design of Stilling Basin Using Artificial Roughness (2011) International Journal of Civil and Environmental Engineering; Alikhani, A., Behrozi, R., Fathi, M., Hydraulic jump In Stilling Basin With Vertical End Sill (2009) Journal of Physical Sciences, Department of Civil Engineering, , University of Qom, Iran; Arora, K.R., (2007) Irrigation Water Power and water Resources Engineering, , NaiSarak, Delhi, A.

These storms restrict the financial activities of the city with expanded municipal effort as well as other well-being and environmental problems, and then bring a huge risk to the local residents. This paper uses Geographic Information System (GIS) and Remote Sensing Imagery to dimensionally discover the reasons causing sandstorms, understand the changes within certain periods of time, and then measure the sand-plume coverage during storms. This work has also made an attempt to get the correlation between meteorological records and spatial outputs to predict the direction and coverage range of the predicted future sandstorms which could help to take protective and preventive measures for the sake of the human being. The periods between 1972 and 2018 have been adopted to study the phenomena by using the information archive of the Nasiriyah Meteorological Center together with NASA's open-source climate data and Landsat satellite imagery. © International University of Sarajevo.GIS; Meteorological; Nasiriyah city; Sandstorms; Spatial study(2013) Sand and Dust Storms Fact Sheet produced by joint analysis and policy unit (JAPU), , https://reliefwebint; Mackie, D.S., Boyd, P.W., McTainsh, G.H., Tindale, N.W., Westberry, T.K., Hunter, K.A., Biogeochemistry of iron in Australian dust: From eolian uplift to marine uptake (2008) Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 9; Badarinath, K., Kharol, S.K., Krishna Prasad, V., Kaskaoutis, D., Kambezidis, H., Variation in aerosol properties over Hyderabad, India during intense cyclonic conditions (2008) International Journal of Remote Sensing, 29, p. 4575; Kaskaoutis, D., Kambezidis, H., Nastos, P., Kosmopoulos, P., Study on an intense dust storm over Greece (2008) Atmospheric Environment, 42, p. 6884; Bullard, J., Baddock, M., McTainsh, G., Leys, J., Sub-basin scale dust source geomorphology detected using MODIS (2008) Geophysical Research Letters, 35; Karimi, N., Moridnejad, A., Golian, S., Vali Samani, J.M., Karimi, D., Javadi, S., Comparison of dust source identification techniques over land in the Middle East region using MODIS data (2012) Canadian Journal of Remote Sensing, 38, p. 586; Baddock, M.C., Bullard, J.E., Bryant, R.G., Dust source identification using MODIS: A comparison of techniques applied to the Lake Eyre Basin, Australia (2009) Remote Sensing of Environment, 113, p. 1511; Yahya, B.M., Seker, D.Z., The Impact of Dust and Sandstorms in Increasing Drought Areas in Nineveh Province, North-western Iraq (2018) Journal of Asian and African Studies, , 0021909618812913; Redmond, H.E., Dial, K.D., Thompson, J.E., Light scattering and absorption by wind blown dust: Theory, measurement, and recent data (2015) Aeolian Research, 2, p. 5; Washington, R., Todd, M., Middleton, N.J., Goudie, A.S., Dust-storm source areas determined by the total ozone monitoring spectrometer and surface observations (2003) Annals of the Association of American Geographers, 93, p. 297; Sissakian, V., Al-Ansari, N., Knutsson, S., Sand and dust storm events in Iraq (2013) Journal of Natural Science, 5, p. 1084; Kobler, M., (2013) Dust storms of Iraq, UN Secretary General for Iraq, A ministerial meeting in Nairobi, , Kenya; Badarinath, K., Kharol, S.K., Kaskaoutis, D., Sharma, A.R., Ramaswamy, V., Kambezidis, H., Long-range transport of dust aerosols over the Arabian Sea and Indian region-A case study using satellite data and ground-based measurements (2010) Global and Planetary Change, 72, p. 164; Feidas, H., Kontos, T., Soulakellis, N., Lagouvardos, K., A GIS tool for the evaluation of the precipitation forecasts of a numerical weather prediction model using satellite data (2007) Computers & geosciences, 33, p. 989; Fedra, K., Urban environmental management: Monitoring, GIS, and modeling (1999) Computers, environment and urban systems, 23, p. 443; Vance, T.C., Mesick, S., Cross, S., Integrating particle tracking models into a GIS for analysis and display of environmental phenomena (2009) Proceedings of the 17th ACM SIGSPATIAL international conference on advances in geographic information systems, p. 460. , ACM; 2021AL-Umar, M.H.; Department of Civil Engineering, Iraq; email: mohammadhydar20@yahoo.comInternational University of Sarajevo23034521EnglishPeriod. eng. nat. sci.ArticleFinalScopus2-s2.0-85078273137

Thus, buildings should be designed and constructed to resist seismic forces. This is not always the case. Most of typical fibre reinforced concrete residential buildings in Iraq are designed and constructed to resist gravity loads only without any considerations to earthquake resistance. It is generally assumed by designers that the seismic forces on low and high-rise buildings are low. The building frame structural system and infill walls are assumed to resist such loads. There has been no verification to these assumptions by designers. Several seismic evaluation methodologies exist over around the world including qualitative (empirical) and quantitative (analytical) methodologies. The most suitable seismic evaluation methodology to be used in Iraq is the analytical methodology of pushover analysis since it does not require an observed damage data from previous earthquakes. We have designed two building that could withstand the earthquakes and have been long lasting using the fibre reinforced concrete. The orientation of the long dimension of columns is an important factor in the seismic resistance of both buildings. The direction contains the long dimension of columns have an earthquake resistance larger than the other direction. Buildings having structural walls behave better than other buildings during earthquakes as long as the location of these walls does not form a horizontal irregularities. © International University of Sarajevo.Buildings; Designing; Earthquake; Fibre reinforced concrete; Modelling; StructureChaulagain, H., Rodrigues, H., Jara, J., Spacone, E., Varum, H., Seismic response of current RC buildings in Nepal: A comparative analysis of different design/construction (2017) Engineering Structures, 49, pp. 284-294; NBC 000:1994.

Nine-hundred cow age ranges between 2 to 5 years, weights from 200 to 400 kg and have crossbreeding and local breeds.Prior to initiating the artificial insemination, the rectal palpation of the cows was performed to determine the estrous phase and palpation the ovaries to determine the ovarian state and ovulation site. The cows was inseminated artificially using three different sources of frozen semen (Holland, Iranian and Iraqi) source with two different straw volume (0.5 or 0.25) ml., and during the insemination; the deposition of semen was performed in three different sites of female genitalia (uterine horn, uterine body and cervix).Depending on the source or origin of the frozen semen, the results showed there are no effect on successful insemination when use of frozen semen with a Holland, Iraqi or Iranian source, there are no significant differences at p < .05. (F = 1.1877).Depending on the size of the straw used (0.25 ml or 0.5 ml); the results showed there are no significant differences between the two volumes at (p < .05).Depending on the site of semen deposition within the female reproductive system; the results showed there are a significant differences at (p < .05) and (F = 8.73035). The highest percentage of successful inseminations showed when the deposition of semen in the uterine horn, compared to the deposition in the body of the uterus or cervix. Depending on the number of inseminations, the results showed that there are no significant differences between the study groups at (p < .05) and (F = 60.54751).The total percentages of successful inseminations in this study were 785/900 (87%), while the failed inseminations were 115/900 (12%).After third insemination; the cases were excluded and considered as a Repeated Breeders cows. © Annals of Tropical Medicine & Public Health S215Artificial insemination; Cattle; Pregnancy rateanimal experiment; Article; artificial insemination; bovine; comparative study; cross breeding; estrus; female; female genital system; genital system; Netherlands; nonhuman; ovary; ovulation; palpation; pregnancy rate; uterine cervix; uterus hornAllen, C.H., Seidel, G.E., Atlantic's experience with non-frozen sperm cells (1996) Proceedings of the National Association of Animal Breeders, pp. 55-56. , Wisconsin, USA; Almquist, J.O., Effect of sperm numbers on fertility of frozen bull spermatozoa in skim milk diluents (1975) J Dairy Sci, 58, pp. 420-422. , Back to cited text 21 PUBMED; Andersson, M., Taponen, J., Koskinen, E., Dahlbom, M., Effect of insemination with doses of two or fifteen million frozen-thawed spermatozoa and semen deposition site on pregnancy rate in dairy cows (2004) Theriogenology, 61, pp. 1583-1588; Bearden, H.J., Fuquary, J.W., Willard, S.T., (2004) Applied Animal Reproduction, pp. 155-233. , Sixth ed.

Numerous researchers have endeavoured to enhance the performance of steganography techniques through the development of an effective algorithm for the selection of the optimal pixel location within the host image for the concealment of secret bits, for the enhancement of the embedding capacity of the secret data, and for maintaining the visual quality of the host image (stego image) in an accepted rate after the concealment of the secret data. Therefore, steganography is perceived as a challenging task. Thus, the current study proposes a new technique for image steganography based on particle swarm optimisation (PSO) algorithm by using pixel selection for the concealment of a secret image in spatial domain, for the purpose of high embedment capacity. The stego possesses a high level of resistance against a steganalytic attack due to the security provided via image steganography. The function of PSO algorithm is to choose an optimal pixel in grey scale host image for the concealment of secret bits, as the PSO has the ability to achieve an efficient fitness calculation that depends on the cost matrix by dividing the host and secret images into four parts. First of all, the secret bits are modified, which are then embedded within the host image. Several locations in the host image are determined through the order of scanning the host pixels and starting point of the scanning for better least significant bits LSBs of each pixel. The PSO algorithm was utilised to ascertain the ideal initiating point and scanning order. Experimental results show that (1) the average peak signal to noise ratio PSNR value in the benchmark technique based on genetic algorithm for five standard stego images is 45.13%, whereas the result obtained from the recommended technique is 56.60%. (2) The proposed technique has an advantage over the benchmark with a percentage of 33.34%, which encompasses all associated issues within the checklist scenario. Therefore, the performance of the recommended technique is superior over existing techniques. © 2019 IEEE.High capacity; image steganography; particle swarm optimisation; spatial domainEmbeddings; Genetic algorithms; Image enhancement; Image segmentation; Pixels; Scanning; Signal to noise ratio; Steganography; Effective algorithms; High capacity; Image steganography; Least significant bits; Particle swarm optimisation; Particle swarm optimization algorithm; Peak signal to noise ratio; Spatial domains; Particle swarm optimization (PSO)Zaidan, B.B., Zaidan, A.A., Kiah, M.L.M., Impact of data privacy and con-dentiality on developing telemedicine applications: A review participates opinion and expert concerns (2011) Int.

Its inception is the product of advanced progress made in sensor networks that utilises wireless technology. Immense progress amassed in terms of technology has culminated in the creation of user-friendly technology that could be worn and minute-sized electronic parts. Consequently, this area of study has achieved huge interest prevalently as the result of its wide and diverse range of implementations, especially in the medical sector that deals with wellbeing and care. Current day scenario observes the existence of minute sensors that are enabled to be posited on the human anatomy for purposes of documentation on an assortment of physical constants to reciprocate appropriate responses. Hence, it forms a perceptive and vigilant scheme that can provide a prompt notification towards acute and complex health incidences, and can be utilised for diagnostic purposes to treat diseases. In view of the topic being of broad and current interest, the objective of this study is engaged in the presentation of a multiplex component of cutting-edge WBASN. This involves the transmission structures, applications in WBASN, programming core, concerns on security, and routing conventions that is adept in its use of energy. We endeavour to encapsulate the most up-to-date progress and expounded on the scientific mechanics of radio that is available that is related to this kind of network. Prospective perspectives and problems will be deliberated pertaining this aspect.

The subjects of the study were 90 autistic children with varying degrees of severity (mild, moderate and severe) who were diagnosed with DSM-IV, thirty children in each group and 30 healthy children (age and sex were identical). The boys and girl ratio involved in this study was 4:1, and they were 4-12 years of age. The study showed a significant elevation in the levels of Cu and Pb in the blood sample of autistic children when compared to a healthy control group. The elevation was much pronounced in severe group subjects when compared among autistic groups mild and moderate. The levels of Zn and Vitamin D3 were significantly decreased in autistic children when compared to control. The Zn and Vitamin D3 showed significant variation in blood of severe group children when compared to control group and other study groups. The correlation between Zn and Vitamin D3 in these patient groups were positive. Whereas the correlation between Zn and each of (Cu and Pb) in these patient groups were negative. © 2009-2019, JGPT.

Firstly, benzoate hydrazide [A] has been synthesized from the condensation of ethyl benzoate with hydrazine.Then the benzoate hydrazide was reacted with phenylisothiocynate to prepare [B]. Cyclization reaction of product [B] with sodium hydroxide produced terazole derivative [C].On the other hand, alcylation reaction of compound [C] with chloroethylacetate in the presence of Sodiumacetatetrihydrate as a catalyst resulted [D]. The acid hydrazide derivative [E] has been synthesized by the reaction of compound [D] with hydrazine hydrate. Finaly, hydrazone derived [M] was synthesized by the condensation reaction of the acid hydrazide [E] with 5-bromo-2-hydroxy benzaldehyde. The synthesized compounds were characterized by UV-Visible, FT-IR, 1H-NMR,13C-NMR and Mass spectra. Analytical spectrophotometric study of the complexes of Lead (II),Cobalt(II) and Cadmium (II) with the hydrazone[M] was achieved. At a pH value of 7.0. lead, cadmium and cobalt salts reacted with [M] to form a 1:1 yellow, 1:1green, and 1:1 viole complexes with absorption peaks at 397, 389, and 396 nm, respectively. Under the optimal conditions, Beer's law was obeyed over the ranges of 0.01- 0.000001 The apparent molar absorptivity and Sandell's sensitivities were 8.5 ×102,8.0 ×103, and 9.8 ×102 L·mol−1·cm−1 respectively, and 0.00964, 0.00600, and 0.00275 µg·cm-2 respectively. The detection limits were found to be 32.75, 41.85, and 40.66 µg/mL-2 respectively. © 2009-2019, JGPT.Analytical studies; Ethyl benzoate; Hydrazones Schiff baseAbd El-Wahab, H., Abd El-Fattah, M., Ahmed, A.H., Elhenawy, A.A., Alian, N.A., (2015) Journal of Organometallic Chemistry, 79, pp. 199-1106; A John Maria Xavier, Manisha Thakur, Marie JM 2012; Babaiah, O., Kesava Rao, C., Sreenivasulu Reddy, T., (1996) Reddy VK Talanta, 43, pp. 551-558; Jain, P., Singh, R.P., (1982) Talanta, 29, p. 77; Budensinksy, B., (1960) Chem.

Many researchers have focused on the high costs of the low-range buildings and energy consumption, though the energy nodes were limited. Here, the researchers have proposed a novel hybrid system for determining the inside range of the WSNs based on the Received Signal Strength (RSSI) and the DV-hop inside the network. This system was tested by developing nodes based on the XBee S2. The practical experiments showed that the proposed system was reliable and accurate, consumed low energy and displayed a better network range. © School of Engineering, Taylor’s University.Localisation; Range-based; Range-free; RSSI; WSNs; XBee S2Karl, H., Willig, A., (2005) Protocol and Architectures for Wireless Sensor Networks, , 1st ed.).

Methodology: A sample of 50 women was selected from primary health care centers in Nasiriyah. The data was collected by interviewing women. The questionnaire was designed and consisted of demographic components and variables and risk factors that contribute to gestational diabetes to pregnant women. The validity and reliability of the questionnaire was determined by conducting a pilot study. Statistical and statistical procedures were used to analyze the data. Results: The study results showed that most of them ranging from age (21-25) years and the highest proportion of them graduated from primary school and less, most of them housewives with enough to some extent. There were statistically important variances between the knowledge of pregnant women about gestational diabetes and demographic data at a value of p less than 0.05. Recommendations: Visit prenatal clinics until late pregnancy, meaning that there is little chance to educate illness on GDM and how they can help prevent it. While doctors are proactively trying to change this, the results of this study suggest that continuing education is necessary to improve awareness of GDM, and early prenatal education is likely to be important and that the Department of Health is setting up workshops on pregnancy.

The initial values of the TD-ERCS system are generated from a user's password, and the TD-ERCS system is used to scramble the pixel locations of the R, G, and B matrices of the original image. Next, three DNA-sequence matrices are generated by encoding the permuted color image such that it can be transformed into three matrices. Then, the TD-ERCS system is employed to generate three chaotic sequences before encoding the DNA into the three matrices. Thereafter, a DNA exclusive OR (XOR) operation is executed between the DNA sequences of the permuted image and the DNA sequences generated by the TD-ERCS system to produce three encrypted scrambled matrices. Finally, the matrices of the DNA sequences are decoded, and the R, G, and B channels are recombined to form an encrypted color image. The results of simulation and security tests reveal that the proposed algorithm offers robust encryption and demonstrates the ability to resist exhaustive, statistical, and differential attacks. © 2019 Haidar Raad Shakir.Authentication;

Recurrent spontaneous abortion due to maternal infections transmissible in uterus at various stage of gestation can be caused by a wide array of organisms, which include Cytomegalovirus. This study included (60) patients (females) aborted with cytomegalovirus and (60) negative control (females) aborted without cytomegalovirus and (60) positive control (healthy women). The study was designed to determine (MDA, Cp, Tf, Vit. C) in study groups. The results shows a significant increase in levels of serum (MDA, Cp, Tf) in patient group in comparison with positive control group and negative control groupwhereas significant decrease in levels of serum (Vit. C) in patient group in comparison with negative control and positive control group. The results of this study indicate that oxidative stress does occur in aborted females with cytomegalovirus there is higher significant rise in lipid peroxidation (MDA) serum and there is a disorder in antioxidant according to the levels of ceruloplasmin, transferring and vitamin C. © 2019, Connect Journal.Abortion; Cytomegalovirus; Oxidative stressascorbic acid; ceruloplasmin; Cytomegalovirus antibody; malonaldehyde; transferrin; abortion; adolescent; adult; Article; biochemical analysis; clinical assessment; controlled study; Cytomegalovirus; enzyme linked immunosorbent assay; female; human; lipid peroxidation; major clinical study; oxidative stress; young adultascorbic acid, 134-03-2, 15421-15-5, 50-81-7; ceruloplasmin, 9031-37-2; malonaldehyde, 542-78-9; transferrin, 82030-93-1Abdul-Karim, E.T., Abdul-Muhymen, N., Al-Saadie, M., Chlamydia trachomatis and rubella antibodies in women with full-term deliveries and women with abortion in Baghdad (2009) East Mediterr Health J., 15, pp. 1407-1411; Agarwal, A., Gupta, S., Sharma, R.K., Role of oxidative stress in female reproduction (2005) Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 3 (1), p. 28; Issa, A.M., Hassan, B.G., Gatea, A.K., Relationship of Nitric Oxide and Malondialdehyde to Miscarriage (2014) Medical Journal of Babylon, 9, p. 4; Al-Gubory, K.H., Fowler, P.A., Garrel, C., The roles of cellular reactive oxygen species, oxidative stress and antioxidants in pregnancy outcomes (2010) The international Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology, 42 (10), pp. 1634-1650; Alice, R., Rumbold, Crowther, C.A., Vitamins C and E and the Risks of Preeclampsia and Perinatal Complications (2006) New England Journal of Medicine, 354 (17), pp. 1796-1806; Arredondo, F., Noble, L.S., Endocrinology of recurrent pregnancy loss (2006) Semin Reprod Med., 24, pp. 33-39; Ashok, A., Anamar, A.-M., Premkumar, B.J., Shaman, A., Sajal, G., The effects of oxidative stress on female reproduction: a review (2012) Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 10 (1), p. 49; Attardo, G.M., Guz, N., Molecular aspects of viviparous reproductive biology of the tsetse fly (Glossina morsitans morsitans) : regulation of yolk and milk gland protein synthesis (2006) J Insect Physiol., 52, pp. 1128-1136; Beazley, D., Ahokas, R., Livingston, J., Griggs, M., Sibai, B.M., Vitamin C and E supplementation in women at high risk for preeclampsia: a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial (2005) American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 192 (2), pp. 520-521; Becker, L.B., New concepts in reactive oxygen species and cardio vascular reperfusion physiology (2004) Cardiovascular Research, 61 (3), pp. 461-470; Biri, A., Kavutcu, M., Bozkurt, N., Devrim, E., Nurlu, N., Durak, Ý., Investigation of free radical scavenging enzyme activities and lipid peroxidation in human placental tissues with miscarriage (2006) Journal of the Society for Gynecologic Investigation, 13 (5), pp. 384-388; Bray, J.J., Cragg, P.A., Macknight, A.D.C., Mills, R.G., (1999) Blood: In Lecture Notes on Human Physiology.; Butris, G.A., Ashood, E.R., (1999) Tetiz fundamental of clinicalchemistry., p. 361. , 4th ed., Sunders W.S and Philadephia; Buettner, G.R., Moseley, P.L., EPR spin trapping of free radicals produced by bleomycin and ascorbate (1993) Free Radical Research Communications, 19, pp. s89-s93; Burton, G.J., Hempstock, J., Jauniaux, E., Oxygen, early embryonic metabolism and free radical-mediated embryopathies (2003) Reprod Biomed Online, 6, pp. 84-96; Carlsen, M.H., Halvorsen, B.L., Holte, K., Bøhn, S.K., Dragland, S., Sampson, L., Barikmo, I., The total antioxidant content of more than 3100 foods, beverages, spices, herbs and supplements used worldwide (2010) Nutrition Journal, 9 (1), p. 3; De Feo, T.M., Fargion, S., Duca, L., Cesana, B.M., Boncinelli, L., Lozza, P., Fiorelli, G., Non transferrin bound iron in alcohol abusers (2001) Alcoholism: Clinical and Experimental Research, 25 (10), pp. 1494-1499; Farmer, E.E., Davoine, C., Reactive electrophile species (2007) Curr.

The results obtained show us that the algae studied can be grown in media containing one of these toxic metals with a reduction of growth, as well as the presence of these metals has an adverse effect on the absorption of phosphate and sulfate. © 2019, Connect Journal.Absorption; Algae; Chlorella vulgaris; Growth; Water treatmentcadmium; chromium; lead; phosphate; sulfate; algal growth; Article; biomass production; Chlorella vulgaris; energy absorption; heavy metal removal; nonhuman; photosynthesis; ultraviolet spectrophotometry; waste water management; water qualitycadmium, 22537-48-0, 7440-43-9; chromium, 16065-83-1, 7440-47-3, 14092-98-9; lead, 7439-92-1, 13966-28-4; phosphate, 14066-19-4, 14265-44-2; sulfate, 14808-79-8Belahmadi, M., Seddik, O., (2011) Study of the biodegradation of 2, 4-dichlorophenol by the microbiota of the inlet and outlet effluents of the ibn Ziad wastewatert reatmentstation, p. 10; Brand, L.E., Sunda, W.G., Guillard, R.R., Reduction of marine phytoplanktonreproductionrates by copper and cadmium (1986) Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 96, pp. 225-250; Gosavi, K., Sammut, J., Gifford, S., Jankowski, J., Macroalgal bio-monitors of tracemetal contamination in acid sulfate soil aquaculture ponds (2004) Sci.

The high-fidelity large eddy simulations turbulence model is utilized to examine the flow-induced vibrations in the draft tube of the unit. The water injection from the runner cone is considered as the control strategy to mitigate the flow-induced fluctuations. The simulations are conducted for the turbine flow rate of 0.2 m3/s without and with the water injection at a rate of 0.008 m3/s. The pressure along the surface of the draft tube is probed at various locations to access the effectiveness of the water injection to mitigate fluctuations. Water injection at 4% rate is demonstrated to be effective in attenuating the pressure fluctuation inside the draft tube. The amplitude of fluctuations is reduced by nearly 50% by the water injection. The generated power is hardly influenced by water injection. Thus, the control strategy considered here could be employed effectively without a penalty on the power generation.

High-fidelity large eddy simulations turbulence model is applied to investigate the flow-induced vibrations in the draft tube of the unit. The water injection at 4% rate from the runner cone is implemented to control the flow-induced pressure fluctuations. The simulations are conducted at the turbine design point and two partial load operations with and without water injection. It has been demonstrated that the water injection has a profound influence in the turbulent flow structure and the pressure field inside the draft tube at the partial load operating conditions. To evaluate the effectiveness of the water injection techniques in mitigating flow-induced fluctuations, the probes at various locations along the wall of the draft tube are used to monitor the pressure signals. It appears to be a reduction in the level of pressure fluctuations by the water injection at both partial load operating regimes. However, we could not draw a firm conclusion about the level of mitigation of flow-induced vibrations. Simulations should be carried out for much longer flow time. Water injection hardly influenced the unit power generation. Hence water injection can be employed effectively without a major liability on the power generation.

The electronic commerce has become significant due to numerous advantages, the most important is the comfort of carrying out the business operations. The diversification and expansion in the markets come up with several legal problems. The most serious problem is the information crime in a way that impends economic development, consequently requires providing legal protection for trade. © 2019, Primrose Hall Publishing Group.Electronic commerce; Legal perspectiveBoysen, N., René de, K., Felix, W., Warehousing in the e-commerce era: A survey (2019) European Journal of Operational Research, 277 (2), pp. 396-411; Ramírez-Correa, P.E., Elizabeth, E., Grandón Arenas-Gaitán, J., Assessing differences in customers' personal disposition to e-commerce (2019) Industrial Management & Data Systems, 119 (4), pp. 792-820; Vargas, V.M., Budz, S., OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGES IN THE E-COMMERCE OF THE FOOD SECTOR (2019) Calitatea, 20, pp. 645-649; Lu, H., Deepening Economic Cooperation in the Shanghai Cooperation Organization: Opportunities, Barriers and Approaches (2018) China Int'l Stud, 71, p. 39; Kende, M., Nivedita, S., (2019) Cross-border e-commerce.

Our technical approach is based on variational methods and critical points theory and on certain analytic and geometrical properties of the Sierpiński fractal. Indeed, using a consequence of the local minimum theorem due to Bonanno, the Palais-Smale condition cut off upper at r, and the Palais-Smale condition for the Euler functional we investigate the existence of one and two solutions for our problem under algebraic conditions on the nonlinear part. Moreover by applying a different three critical point theorem due to Bonanno and Marano we guarantee the existence of third solution for our problem. © 2019, Hacettepe University.

An experiment of crack detection in an aerospace grade aluminum sheet metal alloys was designed using an array of piezoelectric wafer active sensors (PWAS). Gaussian-distribution based damage mapping algorithm was used for analyzing the guided wave signals. Since multiple modes of Lamb waves often complicate the guided wave scattering, this can pose a significant challenge for an algorithm's functionality. Mode rejection using appropriate tuning of the PWAS was used to selectively excite a single Lamb wave mode. In this case, symmetric Lamb waves were excited in the structure. A pitch-catch experimental mode was utilized. The crack was detected, localized, and the crack size was estimated. © International Workshop on Structural Health Monitoring.

Box 33, PC 616, Nizwa, Oman; Jiheel, A.K., Mathematics Department, Theqar University, IraqThis paper considers a class of an efficient 'two-stage shrinkage testimator' (TSST) of 'reliability function' of 'exponential distribution', and the class uses additional information which can be obtained from the past practices, and in the form of past initial estimates (λ0) about the unknown parameter λ. The TSST is dependent upon a convenient shrinking factor, conventional estimators, the 'right censored plan' of sj 'ordered observations' of a variable sample of 'size' Sj and by developing five 'testing regions' for screening the 'closeness' of λ0 to λ by different 'criteria'. The computations of 'bias', 'mean squared error', 'expected sample size' and 'relative efficiency' show that the behaviour of the class of 'TSST' is almost similar to existing testimators and better than classical and similar estimators in several properties, for different constants and variables involved in it. Throughout the paper an application to a 'life time' problem is provided to illustrate applicability of the 'TSST' and expressions that are obtained from it. The behaviour of the developed 'TSST' and the significant comparative results offer some useful and sufficient insights for researchers to continue in the 'TSST' direction, and give adequate reasons for experimenters/practitioners to use 'TSST' in their applications. © 2019 Inderscience Enterprises Ltd.Bessel's function; Efficiency; Exponential failure model; Minimum experimentation; Reliability function; Two-stage shrinkage; Type II censored dataEfficiency; Mean square error; Screening; Shrinkage; Bessel's function; Censored data; Failure model; Minimum experimentation; Reliability functions; ReliabilityThe authors are thankful to Mr. Francis Andrew, University of Nizwa, for proofreading the paper.Al-Ali, A.A., Al-Hemyari, Z.A., Preliminary test shrinkage techniques in the Weibull lifetime model using prior information (2013) Al-Mustansiryah Journal of Science, 24 (2), pp. 133-146; Al-Hemyari, Z.A., On Stein type two-stage shrinkage testimator (2009) International J.

The effect of pH, adsorbent dosage and contact time were investigated. Increase in the pH to neutrality resulted in the increase in the phenolic compounds adsorption capacity. The results showed that the increase in the fiber palm dosage to 0.5g/0.1L significantly increased the phenolic compounds adsorption rates. The adsorption process was fast, and it reached equilibrium in 30 min. contact time. The Freundlich and Langmuir adsorption models were used for mathematical description of the adsorption equilibrium and it was found that experimental data fitted very well to both Freundlich and Langmuir models. These results indicate clearly the efficiency of fiber as a low-cost solution for these compounds in aqueous solutions treatment and give some preliminary elements for the comprehension of the interactions between palm fiber as a bioadsorbent and the very polluting compounds from aqueous solutions. © 2009-2019, JGPT.

It also evaluates the risk of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor drugs on long term therapy of patients. Subjects and methods: this cross-sectional study was carried out in Al Hussein-teaching hospital at Al Nasiriya city, south of Iraq. The research started at November 2016 until April 2017. Eighty one patients (52) males and (29) females], age (34-77 years) were enrolled in this study. All of the patients were diagnosed with cardiac diseases by specialist doctors and currently on angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor drugs for long term therapy. The data collected from patients through a questionnaire list designed and developed for this study. The list concerned with the disorders and drugs-related data in addition to the patients' general data. The collected results were analyzed in order to construct tables, figures and other necessary research requirements. Results and conclusions: in this study, most of the cases are treated with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor drugs for hypertension (97.5%), and captopril represents the most popular of them (52 %). The most common significant results among the disorders associated with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor treatment in patients were osteoporotic back pain (79 %), osteoarthritic joint pain (87.65 %), and gastrointestinal disorders like constipation, abdominal pain and chest pain were (66.7%), (53%), and (56.8%) respectively. © 2009-2019, JGPT.

In this paper, a series of unconfined compression and triaxial tests were conducted on sand and sand-ground granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBFS) based geopolymer. A solution of sodium silicate and sodium hydroxide was employed for the geopolymerization process. Results revealed that adding the GGBFS resulted in a significant increase in the strength properties. This result indicates that geopolymer acted as a cementation agent, providing better bonding between the sand particles and consequently improving the performance of the treated sand. © Czech Technical University in Prague, 2019.Drained triaxial strength; Geopolymer; Ground granulated blast-furnace slag; Sand; Unconfined compression strengthBosoaga, A., Mašek, O., Oakey, J.E., (2009) CO2 Capture Technologies for Cement Industry.

During field loading, maximum moments of between 74% and 87% of the moment caused by AASHTO HL-93 loading with impact were applied to the structures. Strain readings indicated partial to full unintended composite action and significant restraint at the girder ends for all structures. HL-93 operating load ratings were modified using the strain measurements recorded during diagnostic load tests, leading to an average increase in moment rating factor of 52%. A novel approach of calibrating 3D FE models was developed that captures the observed full and partial composite action observed during testing, as well as restraint of the girder ends, giving good agreement between model-predicted and measured strains. The FE models were used to directly predict bridge capacities and rating factors while explicitly capturing girder yielding and load redistribution. The effects of unintended composite action, end restraint and concrete deck stiffness on capacity were examined using these models. The most conservative FE-estimated rating factors that ignored unintended composite action and end restraint - which are likely unreliable at large loads - were 54% higher than the conventional, code-based rating factors. © 2019 - IOS Press and the authors.

This paper investigates the preparation and the rheological behavior of different pre-polymerized and polymerized alginate methacrylate systems for three-dimensional photopolymerization bioprinting. The effect of the functionalization time on the mechanical, morphological, swelling, and degradation characteristics of cross-linked alginate hydrogel is also discussed. Alginate was chemically-modified with methacrylate groups and different reaction times considered. Photocurable alginate systems were prepared by dissolving functionalized alginate with 0.5- 1.5% w/v photoinitiator solutions and cross-linked by ultraviolet light (8 mW/cm2 for 8 minutes). © 2019 Mishbak, et al.3D bioprinting; Alginate hydrogel; Functionalization; Photopolymerization; RheologyUniversity of Manchester; Higher Committee for Education Development in Iraq, HCED; School of Mechanical and Aerospace EngineeringMr. H.H.

The adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy inference system based on Error reference power system stabilizer (RNFIS PSS) uses a first order sugeno-type fuzzy logic controller whose membership function and consequences are also tuned on –line by use of neural network according to gradient decent learning algorithm based on error reference model. The simulated power system consists of single – machine – infinite – bus and multi – machine power system. The proposed ERANFIS PSS are designed for each machine. The simulation results use Matlab and S-function technique for various test, and it shows that the proposed stabilizer (ERANFIS PSS) has better performance than that of conventional power system stability (CPSS). © 2019, Institute of Advanced Scientific Research, Inc.

In current paper, a new method of face verification upon on singular value decomposition (SVD) and standard deviation (SD) would be described. Due to many variations in real-life such as pose, illumination, or facial expression, there would be difficulty of face recognition. It should be mentioned that there are many approaches for face recognition, however, there is no one could be considered as the most suitable for many situations. One of the methods used is Singular value vector for an image detecting, but the drawback of this approach is the low rate of recognition, where one scale singular value vector is used for face acknowledgment. There an algorithm has been developed to expand the rate of the recognition. In this paper, an approach has been proposed to associate two feature sets obtained from SVD and SD method. It has noticed a good recognition rate could be obtained from the experimental results, where approximately more that 97.5% recognition rate has obtained on the ORL data base. The results from current proposed method have matched with some techniques and it has shown that this method is better than the existing approaches. An extensive experiment has demonstrated not only better performance, but it offers a great likely to achieve equivalent performance to other categories of state-of-the-art methods. © 2019 International University of Sarajevo.Decomposition (SVD); Face Recognition; Pattern recognition; Singular Value; Standard Deviation (SD)Patel, R., Yagnik, S.B., A Literature Survey on Face Recognition Techniques (2013) International Journal of Computer Trends and Technology (IJCTT), 5 (4), pp. 189-194; Zhao, W., Chellappa, R., Phillips, P.J., Rosenfeld, A., Face Recognition: A Literature Survey (2003) CM Computing Surveys, 35 (4), pp. 399-458; He, J., Du, M., Face Recognition Based on Projection Map and SVD Method for One Training Image per Person (2005) International Conference on Computational Intelligence for Modelling, Control and Automation, and International Conference on Intelligent Agents, Web Technologies and Internet Commerce (CIMCA-IAWTIC'05); Turk, M., Pentland, A., Eigenfaces for Recognition (1991) Journal of Cognitive Neurosicence, 3 (1), pp. 71-86; Lu, J., Plataniotis, K.N., Venetsanopoulos, A.N., Face recognition using LDA-based algorithms (2003) IEEE Trans., Neural Networks, 14, pp. 195-200; Hong, Z., Algebraic feature extraction of image for recognition (1991) Pattern Recognition, 24, pp. 211-219; Cheng, Y., Liu, K., Jang, J., Zhang, Y., Gu, N., Human face recognition method based on the statistical model of small sample size (1991) SPIE Proc: Intell.

Rossin College of Engineering and Applied Science, Lehigh University, Bethlehem, PA 18015, United StatesVortex identifications in turbulent flows past arrays of tandem plates are performed by employing the velocity field obtained by high-fidelity large eddy simulations. Lagrangian coherent structures (LCSs) are extracted to examine the evolution and the nonlinear interaction of vortices and to characterize the spatial and temporal characteristics of the flow. LCSs' identification method is based on the finite-time Lyapunov exponent (FTLE), which is evaluated using the instantaneous velocity data. The simulations are performed in three-dimensional geometries to understand the physics of fluid motion and the vortex dynamics in the vicinity of plates and surfaces at Reynolds number of 50 000. The instantaneous vorticity fields, Eulerian Q-criterion, and LCSs are presented to interpret and understand complex turbulent flow structures. The three-dimensional FTLE fields provide valuable information about the vortex generation, spatial location, evolution, shedding, decaying, and dissipation of vortices. It is demonstrated here that FTLE can be used together with Eulerian vortex identifiers to characterize the turbulent flow field effectively. © 2019 Published by NRC Research Press.Lagrangian coherent structures; Large eddy simulations; Turbulent flows; Visualization and dynamics; Vortex detectionLagrange multipliers; Large eddy simulation; Lyapunov methods; Plates (structural components); Reynolds number; Turbulent flow; Velocity; Vorticity; Complex turbulent flows; Finite-time Lyapunov exponent; Lagrangian coherent structures; Nonlinear interactions; Temporal characteristics; Three dimensional geometry; Vortex detection; Vortex identifications; Vortex flowNational Science Foundation, NSF: TG-CTS170051This work used the Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery Environment (XSEDE) supported by National Science Foundation grant No. TG-CTS170051.

The present study aims to identify the most suitable solid waste disposal site using Geographic Information System (GIS), remote sensing, and the multi criteria decision-making (MCDM) technique. In addition, the study compares the proposed method for suitability with the traditional analytic hierarchy process (AHP) approach. A new validation approach was applied to evaluate the accuracy of the AHP and Fuzzy logic methods based on the selected solid waste locations. Remote sensing data (ASTER GDEM) and field/reference maps were used to derive 12 conditioning factors required to produce a suitable location for solid waste disposal. The result shows that the accuracy of AHP, based on the consistency index (CI), is acceptable (greater than 0.1). However, Fuzzy logic was shown to be more accurate than AHP. The total surface areas of suitable locations based on AHP and Fuzzy models are 4.4 km2 and 13.35 km2, respectively. This study showed that AHP, Fuzzy logic and GIS can be integrated for waste management decision issues related to site selection to reduce negative effects on the environment and inhabitants. © 2019, ALÖKI Kft., Budapest, Hungary.Landfill site selection; Multi-criteria decision analysis; Remote sensing; Waste managementMinistry of Higher Education, Malaysia, MOHE: FRGS/1/2018/WAB05/UKM/02/2; Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, UKM: DIP- 2017-006Marlia M.

Clinically, the spots of pityriasis alba are off-white in color, round with poorly defined margins that bear scanty fine scales on it. No specific cause of pityriasis alba has been identified. In this disease, the number of melanocytes declines and melanosomes reduce within melanocytes. Vitamin D exerts its effect via the vitamin D receptor on melanocytes, if intracellular Ca2+ level decreases, this leads to high levels of reduced thioredoxin this, in turn, inhibit tyrosinase activity with the inhibition of melanin synthesis. In addition, the apoptotic activity of melanocytes reduces by the active form of vitamin D. Aim: The study aimed to assess the status of vitamin D for patients with pityriasis alba. Materials and Methods: 44 patient diagnosed with pityriasis alba were enrolled and the second group of 44 controls was involved in our study. Serum levels of circulating 25 (OH) D were measured. Results: None of the cases had sufficient serum level; the level ranged between 8.1-27.3 ng/ml. The patients had lower circulating vitamin D levels than controls. Conclusion: Our findings in the present study are significant, but further studies with large samples are needed to correlate the extent and severity of pityriasis alba with vitamin D deficiency. © 2019 Kattoof and Kawen.

And (30) additional samples from Leek were collected from local markets of two cities in Thi-Qar province. Sedimentation technique was used for samples examination. Giardia lamblia with (71.1 %) was the dominant parasite of protozoa and Ascaris lumbricoides (15.6%) was the common parasite of helminthes therefore the significant differences were found by using the statistical analysis (T- test) in level P< 0.05. One hundred and thirteen (113) samples were contaminated with parasites, Leek and Basil with rate (100%) were full contamination with parasites while Lettuce (70%) was the lower. The direct relationship wasn’t found between percentage of parasites contamination for fresh vegetables in sale markets and percentage of intestinal parasitic infections in hospitals that near of its. There was relationship between the higher rate of prevalence G. lamblia and E. histolytica on fresh vegetables and infection of these parasites in the hospitals. No significant differences between rate of infection for male and rate of infection for female by using (T- test) in level P< 0.05. There were some parasites such as Diphyllobotherium latum, Schistosoma japonicum, Heterophyes heterophyes that are rarely or not found in Iraq were isolated from contaminated samples and this indicates to irrigation it by water contaminated with sewage or fertilization it with faces of foreign people that coming to work in Iraq and biodiversity upset and occurrence of new species did not exist in Iraq at the expense of other types. There was positive effect for vinegar (5% Acetic acid) to kill the most parasites except cysts of G. lamblia and ova of E. vermicularis. © The Author(s) 2019.Contaminated vegetables; Diphyllobotherium latum; Intestinal parasitic; Schistomiasisvinegar; adult; aged; Ancylostoma duodenale; Article; Ascaris lumbricoides; basil; biodiversity; celery; child; clinical article; Coccidia; Dipylidium caninum; Entamoeba coli; Entamoeba histolytica; Enterobius vermicularis; Fasciola hepatica; female; fertilization; Giardia intestinalis; Heterophyes; human; Hymenolepis nana; intestine parasite; Iraq; leek; Lepidium sativum; lettuce; male; middle aged; prevalence; Schistosoma haematobium; Schistosoma japonicum; Schistosoma mansoni; school child; sedimentation; Strongyloides stercoralis; Taenia saginata; Trichomonas; Trichuris trichiura; vegetable; young adultvinegar, 8028-52-2Duckworth, R.B., Farming systems for production of fruits and vegetables (1996) Fruits and Vegetables Oxford, pp. 48-62. , Pergama press; Diet, nutrition and the prevention of chronic disease (2003) Report of A Joint FAO/WHO Expert Consultation, , WHO.

Its data and software could be reached at any time and from any place. Due to the large amount of requests received from cloud users, cloud service provider should manage all requests efficiently. This paradigm is called load balancing. Load balancing aims to distribute all requests among datacenter nodes such that avoiding node overload or underload. In this paper, we proposed a modified Round Robin (RR) algorithm for load balancing. The presented approach relies on computing two time quantum in each round. It is compared with many other algorithms such as: ERR, ORRSM, EDQRR, DABRR, and SRDQ. The experimental results show that our algorithm outperforms the others.

All isolates were subjected to quantitative scanning to select the most efficient one. The highest activity of xylanase (2680u/ml) was obtained from isolate Bacillus sp RS1. The isolate identified by 16SrRNA gene sequence of Bacillus subtilis ( accuracy of 99%)which was matched with sequence of Bacillus subtilis VBN25 that recorded in Genebank under the Accession Number of MG027675.1.Extracted xylan from agricultural waste by acidic method(papyrus, sun flower stalks, Ibaa Wheat type, Furat wheat type and Abo Ghraib wheat type)were used as the substrate for xylanase production from Bacillus. The results showed that the papyrus gave the highest amount of xylan (187.6μ g/ml) as compared with that of the sun flower stalks, Ibaa Wheat type, Furat wheat type and Abo Ghraib wheat type(161.3, 161.6, 157.6, 157.2) μ g/ml respectively. The results indicated that the highest xylanase activity was 2800 u/ml produced by Bacillus subtilus when Papyrus xylan was used. © 2019 University of Baghdad, College of Agriculture.16S rRNA; Bacillus subtilis; Hemicelluloses; Xylan hydrolyzing enzymesAcharya, K.P., Shilpkar, P., Production, partial purification and characterization of xylanase using Nicotiana tabacum leaf dust as substrate (2016) Journal of environmental biology, 37 (2), p. 297; Chaturvedi, S., Singh, R., Khurana, P., Isolation and Identification of xylanolytic enzyme from an effective strain Bacillus licheniformis isolated from the decaying wood (2013) International Journal of Applied Biology and Pharmaceutical Technology, 4 (4), pp. 92-100; Dubois, M., Gilles, K.A., Hamilton, J.K., Robers, P.A., Smith, F.F., Colorimetric method for determination of sugars and related substances (1956) Analytical Chemistry, 28, pp. 350-356; Earl, A.M., Losick, R., Kolter, R., Ecology and genomics of Bacillus subtilis (2008) Trends in microbiology, 16 (6), pp. 269-275; Gowdhaman, D., Jeyalakshmi, G., Sugumaran, K., Subramanian, N.S., Santhosh, R.S., Ponnusami, V., Optimization of the xylanase production with the newly isolated Bacillus aerophilus KGJ2 (2014) Turkish Journal of Biochemistry, 39 (1), pp. 70-77; Green, M.R., Sambrook, J., (2012) Molecular cloning: a laboratory manual: three-volume set, , Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press; Harrigan, F.W., McCance, M.E., (1976) Laboratory Methods in Microbiology, p. 27. , Acadamic Press of London, New York; Jernejc, K., Cimerman, A., Morphological characteristics, extracellular and intracellular protein and enzyme patterns of five Aspergillus species (2001) Food Technology and Biotechnology, 39 (4), pp. 333-340; Khusro, A., Kaliyan, B.K., Al-Dhabi, N.A., Arasu, M.V., Agastian, P., Statistical optimization of thermo-alkali stable xylanase production from Bacillus tequilensis strain ARMATI (2016) Electronic Journal of Biotechnology, 22, pp. 16-25; Miller, G.L., Use of dinitrosalicylic acid reagent for determination of reducing suger (1959) Analytical Chemistry, 31 (3), pp. 426-429; Moteshafi, H., Mousavi, S.M., Hashemi, M., Enhancement of xylanase productivity using industrial by-products under solid suspended fermentation in a stirred tank bioreactor, with a dissolved oxygen constant control strategy (2016) RSC Advances, 6 (42), pp. 35559-35567; Pithadiya, D., Nandha, D., Thakkar, A., Partial purification and optimization of xylanase from Bacillus circulans (2016) Archives of Applied Science Research, 8 (2), pp. 1-10; Roy, N., Rawshanul, H.M., Isolation and characterization of Xylanase producing strain of Bacillus cereus from soil (2009) Iranian Journal of Microbiology, 2, pp. 49-53; Sacchi, C.T., Whitney, A.M., Mayer, L.W., Morey, R., Steigerwalt, A., Boras, A., Weyant, S.R., Tanja, P., Sequencing of 16S rRNA Gene A rapid Tool for Identification of Bacillus anrhracis (2002) Emerging Infectious Diseases Journal, 8 (10), pp. 1117-1123; Sadfi, N., Cherif, M., Fliss, I., Boudabbous, A., Antoun, H., Evaluation of bacterial isolates from salty soils and Bacillus thuringiensis strains for the biocontrol of Fusarium dry rot of potato tubers (2001) Journal of Plant Pathology, pp. 101-117; Sarika, C., Singh, R., Paul Khurana, S.M., Isolation and identification of xylanolytic enzyme from an effective strain Bacillus licheniformis isolated from the decaying wood (2013) International Journal of Applied Biology and Pharmaceutical Technology, 4 (4); Seo, J.K., Park, T.S., Kwon, I.H., Piao, M.Y., Lee, C.H., Ha, J.K., Characterization of Cellulolytic and Xylanolytic Enzymes of Baillus licheniformis JK7 Isolated from the Ruman of a Native Korean Goat (2013) Asian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 26 (1), pp. 50-58; Suto, M.M., Takebayashi, K., Saito, M., Tanaka, A., Yokota, A., Tomita, F., Endophytes as producer of xylanase (2002) J.

Opportune to the next stage of LPBF will be the development of multi-material capabilities alongside methods for rapid formulation of new materials. To this end the present work compares two viable material preparation techniques, namely ball milling and satelliting of powder feedstock, in which a binary material mixture is prepared. For both techniques, material handling, flowability and particle size distribution of the mixture are observed experimentally. Finally, for the first time initial experimental results with LPBF processing of a Metal Matrix Composite (MMC) composed of a magnesium (matrix) and silicon carbide (reinforcement) mixture are presented. © 2019 The Authors.

Methods: A systematic literature review was done through Pubmed and CENTRAL to extract data related to new-onset atrial fibrillation following primary PCI. Results: Searching resulted in twenty-one matched studies. Extraction of data showed an incidence rate of new-onset atrial fibrillation (2.8%-58%). A negative impact was found on the outcomes of patients treated with primary PCI with increased short and long-term mortality and morbidity. Conclusion: New-onset atrial fibrillation is an adverse prognostic marker in patients with acute myocardial infarction treated invasively. Preventive measures and anticoagulant therapy should be considered more intensively in this subset of patients. © 2019 F.

Samples of larvae were collected from Iraq. The larvae were exposed to various temperatures 30, 35, 40, 45 and 50°C for 10 minutes (as heat shock period). Larval mortality was recorded. The data was analyzed to calculate the quantity of heat (kj) that was added, the corrected mortality, the regression line and the correlation coefficient. It was found that heat shock of 30°C has no effect on larvae, but heat shock of 35, 40, 45 and 50°C produced mortality, while heat shock of 30 and 35°C has no effect on some aquatic organisms. The heat shock of 40.6°C and 48.94°C produced mortality in 50% and 95% of larval populations, respectively. The study showed that the heat shock of 40°C can be used to control the aquatic stages (Larvae) of mosquito (Anopheles arabiensis). The results of this work could be further tested in small pools, man- wholes of the bath rooms small containers used to keep drinking water and water pot, "zeer". © 2009-2019, JGPT.water; Anopheles arabiensis; Article; controlled study; heat shock; insect larva; mortality; nonhumanwater, 7732-18-5Bernhard, L., Bernhard, P., Magnussen, P., Management of patients with lymph edema caused by filariasis in northeastern Tanzania: Alternative approaches (2003) Physiotherapy, 89, pp. 743-749; White, G.B., Mosquito-bore virus diseases (2004) WI-IO/V13C/89., 967, pp. 2-23; David, A.W., Herbert, M.G., The Anopheles vector (2002) Essential Malariology, 4'edn., pp. 59-84; Abdalla, A., (2004) Population Studies on the Species of Anopheles Mosquitoes in Relation to Malaria Transmission in Iraq; Nicholas, R.H.B., Cowan, G.O., A color atlas of medical entomology (2008) Chapman and Hall Medical, pp. 10-80; Howard, A.F.B., Zhou, G., Omlin, F.X., Malaria control using edible fish in western Kenya: Preliminary findings of a controlled study (2007) BMC Public Health, 7, pp. 199-204; Nour, K.M., (2009) The Effect of Temperature on Anopheles Arabiensispatton (Diptera-Culicidac) Larvae, , M.Sc.

The most effective procedure to measure the degree of land-cover and land-use changes is the multi-date study. For this purpose, the aim of this work is to analyze the current evolution of land-use and land-cover (LULC) using remote sensing techniques, in order to better understand this evolution. For this purpose, a diachronic approach is applied to satellite images acquired in 1987 to 2018 of Ma’rib city Yemen. The LULC maps we obtained were produced from different image analysis procedures (non-supervised classification and recode technique) to map the land-use and land-cover. The objective of this study is to apply reproducibly and generalizable a predefined nomenclature to different scenes of satellite images. The first step consists in interpreting the radiometric classes obtained by non-supervised classification so as to form the classes of the thematic nomenclature. An improvement of the classification is then obtained by using the recode technique which makes it possible to correctly reassign the previously badly classified pixels of the satellite images classification. Land-cover maps obtained from remote sensing were used to quantify the rate of change (Tc) and (Tg) of area occupied by each class. The results will indicate the most changeable period and the percentage of overall change in the study area (Ma’rib Yemen), and helped to identify and characterize the spatial and temporal evolution of land use in the district over a period of thirty-one years (1987 to 2018). They reveal that annual average rates of decline for the water body is -83.5% and -9.96% for the sandy land. However, it was observed an increase in built-up area 365.52% and farm land 324.52% classes. © Authors 2019.

The experiment was carried out according to Split Plot Design and using the RCBD Design and three replications. The types marked with the symbol A (Al Rashid (A1), Bohouth 22 (A2)) were at the forefront of the main plot, while the fertilization levels marked with (B1, B2, B3, B4, B5) were placed in the sub plot. The results showed differences between Cultivars in some of the studied traits, where Al-Rashid gave the highest average in the number of days from planting to 50% of flowering stage, plant height and spike length (109.12 days, 108.38 cm, 17.252 cm), respectively. While Bohouth 22 far outnumbered in numbers of days from 50% of flowering stage to the physiological maturity, which gave an average of 44.33 days.Whereas they do not significantly differ in the total Yield of seed. The B3 fertilization level showed its superiority in most studied traits. It gave the highest average in the spike length, the flag leaf area and the total yield (15.737 cm, 60.33 cm2, 11.20 t.h-1), respectively and without significant difference with B1, B5, B4. The B1 fertilization level far outnumbered by giving the highest average in plant height, chlorophyll content and number of grains (103.5 cm, 0.7775, 70.67 g.s-1), respectively, without significant difference with B3, B5, B4. The B1 fertilization level far outnumbered by giving the highest average in the total number of tillers and spikes produced (603.7, 540.7) t.m-2, respectively, without significant difference with B1,B3, B5. Results showed a significant decrease in level B2 in all studied traits. The combination (A1 × B1) gave the highest average of spike length of 18.042 cm. That did not differ significantly from the combination (A1 × B3) and (A1 × B5), which gave (17.708, 17,758) cm, while the combination (A2 × B2) gave the lowest average of 12.983 cm. © 2019 Plant Archives.

The results showed that the methanol extract works as an antioxidant and has been underwent to chemical analysis. The analysis showed that it contains most popular plant components except saponiens and steroids.The industrial dye Brilliant Blue was prepared with a concentration 1×10-4, irradiated in a photolysis cell in the presence of the methanolic abstract and TiO2 catalyst. The results showed that the absolute removal rate of dye was 50.85% in the absence of the catalyst and after two hours of irradiation with UV, while the absolute removal rate of dye was 98.39% with the presence of catalyst,antioxidant methanol extract, of hexane, chloroform, ethylacetate, 1-butanol. To elucidatte the activity on the dye photo bleaching further extraction of methanolic extract with 0.1 g were added to the cell containing the dye with concentration 1×10-4 and irradiated. It was noticed that the dye survived degradation with the presence of antioxidant and this shows the role of the extract protecting the dyes photo bleaching when exposed to UV light. The results showed that among the most effective extracts on the dye was ethyl acetate extract compared to other extracts compounds and then the effective compound was isolated characterized by IR, H-NMR, Mass spectra, the effective compound was suggested to be(1-(4-tertbutylphenyl) 4-[4-[hydroxydiphenyl methyl] piperidin-1-yl] butyl)1-butanol. © 2019 Plant Archives.

B. orientale is an edible fern that is used as a food and in traditional medicine. This study assessed the total phenol content (TPC) and antioxidant activity by three different assays (DPPH, FRAP and ORAC) of the 50% aqueous acetone extracts of B.oriental parts sampled from two selected location (UKM Fern Garden and Chini Forest). The extracts analyses were prepared from the young fronds, mature fronds, rhizome, and fiddlehead of the sampling fern. ANOVA test at P < 0.05 determines significant differences between various parts extract. It was found the TPC of young frond extract of B. oriental had the highest contents (1360 and 1643 mg GAE/100g DW) in UKM Fern Garden and Chini Forest respectively. While the antioxidant activity of plant extracts by DPPH, FRAP assay and ORAC value for all parts of B. oriantle was very high at both locations. It illustrated that there is strong antioxidant activity for all parts of plant, especially for Chini Forest and that correlate to diversity of climatic and geomorphological features. A good linear significant correlation coefficient was detected between the TPC and FRAP (p < 0.01), and among the assays were compared with each other (DPPH, FRAP and ORAC), (p < 0.05) from both location. These findings provide scientific evidence to support its traditional medicinal importance which is potentially rich sources of natural antioxidants. © 2019 Plant Archives.

The most important elements are wind, dust storms, temperature, acid rain, air pollution and its role in environmental pollution and its negative impact on the local environment and the urban environment. We noticed the pollution of city streets more than rural streets, open areas and study results. Heavy metal concentration levels were determined using AAS after digestion of dust samples in vitro (Al-Janabi et al., 1992). The results showed that the concentration of some heavy metals was high in this study. The differences in the percentage of lead concentration were from (97.3) to (266) ppm. The concentration of cadmium was from (7.3) to (13.9) ppm, the range of Zn from (55) to (104) ppm, while the concentration of copper, Ni and Cu ranged from (13) to (34.1) ppm, (11.7) to (34.2) ppm and (12) to (25.4) ppm, respectively. The variation in coefficients showed that one group of metals was affected. The analysis of the component of the principle of human pollution resulted in two main components PC1 with a high load of Pb, Cd, Zn, the proposed result of industrial activities and PC2 with the contribution of Cu, Cr and Ni due to soil factors, Humanity. The environmental state of the soil was recorded by calculating geochemical loads (GLI) for each mineral. The concentration of heavy metals was significant in each element, which was shown by concentrations of the six elements studied in this study. © 2019 Plant Archives.

Thus, wheat cultivars should be chosen which fit the best planting date to reach the optimum yield. Therefore, this study aimed to choose the best certified cultivars that can be planted in best sowing date depending upon the global changing in Thi-Qar area in southern Iraq to get the optimum yield of grain yield and protein as active product. Four certified cultivars of wheat (Bohoth 22, Al-Rasheed, Tamooz 2 and Iraq) were planted in four sowing dates (1 st Nov., 20 th Nov, 10 th Dec. and 30 th Dec.) that arranged in factorial experiment by using randomized complete block design in three replicates. Bohoth 22 cultivar produced the highest grain yield in the second planting date as well as Iraq cultivar gave the highest protein percentage in the second planting date. Throughout the results of this study, it is clear to understand that all cultivars might be chosen and planted in all planting date in study area because stability of production under the sever environmental conditions. © 2019 Plant Archives.

However, such material has been used in several geotechnical applications as alternative lightweight backfill in highway embankments and/or behind retaining walls, providing environmental, economic and technical benefits. These applications require knowledge of engineering properties of soil-tire rubber mixtures. The present study aims to show the possibility of tire rubber usage in sand by evaluating the shear strength and deformability of sand mixed with granulated rubber, in weight percentages between 0 and 50%. The tire rubber content was found to influence the stress-strain and deformation behavior of the mixtures. The shear strength of sand mixed with 10% or 20% tire rubber was higher than that measured for sand only. However, the trend for TRC = 30-50% was different. Samples with a rubber content of 30-50% exhibited a rapid decrease in the stress ratio compared with that of sand. The major principal strain at maximum stress ratio was found to increase with increasing tire rubber content. However, it was observed that the lateral strains (minor and intermediate principal strains) of samples reduced significantly with the addition of tire rubber to the sand. © 2019 Alaa H. J.

Practically speaking, injudicious use and inappropriate discharge of all forms of hydrocarbons compounds are harmful for the ecosystem. On the other hand, hydrocarbon components like polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and their biodegradation products are known for their carcinogenic behavior. The reason of persistence of carbon-based compounds (petroleum hydrocarbons) for a long time in the ecosystem depends on many factors such as the physical factors, type of soil, type of microbes in that particular environment, water and sediment of that area, and above all the chemical nature of the petroleum hydrocarbon. The degradation rate of any hydrocarbon product depends upon the chemical nature of the compound, influence of physical factors (here temperature plays a significant role), and accessibility of hydrocarbon as carbon source for microbes, especially the extracellular enzymes secreted by the microbes. The hydrocarbon compounds released in the soil sediments are easy to degrade compared to the aquatic system; since the diversity of microbes in soil and sediment is more, therefore, released hydrocarbon compounds are easily degraded into simple and nontoxic components. Filamentous fungi are a very important biodegrader, owing to their greater biomass compared to bacterial cell. The fungi have more surface area for biosorption and enzyme secretion for efficient biodegradation of petroleum hydrocarbons. In addition to fungi, other organisms such as bacteria and algae have also been employed as an efficient hydrocarbon biodegrader. The main problem with petroleum hydrocarbon biodegradation is that owing to the recalcitrant nature of petrochemicals, the process is complicated, and it also takes a long time for mineralization. Environmental factors also determine the fate of petroleum hydrocarbons in aquatic and terrestrial ecosystem and also rely on several climatic conditions such as temperature, light, aerobic and anaerobic conditions, pH, wind, availability of nitrogen compounds, presence of humic acids, and salinity. There are several methods and approaches used all over the globe to remove or biodegrade the unwanted hydrocarbons using physical and chemical means, but these approaches are not efficient, and moreover they are not cost-effective. The use of biological means by applying potential microbes for bioremediation is an efficient, eco-friendly, and cost-effective tactic without addition of any unwanted load on the environment. © Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2018.Aquatic ecosystems; Bacteria; Biodegradation; Bioremediation; Cost effectiveness; Degradation; Enzymes; Fungi; Gasoline; Hydrocarbons; Nitrogen compounds; Organic pollutants; Polychlorinated biphenyls; Sediments; Soils; Aerobic and anaerobic conditions; Biodegradation products; Environmental factors; Hydrocarbon components; Petroleum hydrocarbons; Polyaromatic hydrocarbons; Polychlorinated biphenyl (PCBs); Terrestrial ecosystems; Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbonsAi-Jawhari, I.H., Ability of some fungi isolated from a sediment of Suq-Al Shuyukh marshes on biodegradation of crude oil (2015) Int J Curr Microbiol App Sci, 4, pp. 19-32; Ai-Jawhari, I.H., Bioremediation of anthracene by Aspergillus niger and Penicillium funiculosum (2016) Int Res J Bio Sci, 5, pp. 1-13; Alegbeleyea, O.O., Olutoyin, B.O., Jackson, V., Bioremediation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) compounds: (acenaphthene and fluorene) in water using indigenous bacterial species isolated from the Diep and Plankenburg rivers, Western Cape, South Africa (2017) Braz J Microbiol, 48 (2), pp. 314-325; Al-Nasrawi, H., Biodegradation of crude oil by fungi isolated from Gulf of Mexico (2012) J Bioremed Biodegar, 3, p. 147. , https://doi.org/10.4172/2155-6199.1000147; Andreoni, V., Gianfreda, L., PAH bioremediation by microbial communities and enzymatic activities (2010) Handbook of green chemistry, , https://doi.org/10.1002/9783527628698.hgc033, Anastas PT (ed), Wiley, Weinheim; Atlas, R.M., Microbial degradation of petroleum hydrocarbons: An environmental perspective (1981) Microbiol Rev, 45, pp. 180-209; Barr, D.P., Aust, S.D., Mechanisms white rot fungi use to degrade pollutants (1994) Environ Sci Technol, 28, pp. 78A-87A; Bisht, S., Pandey, P., Kaur, G., Aggarwal, H., Sood, A., Sharma, S., Kumar, V., Bisht, N.S., Utilization of endophytic strain Bacillus sp.

The distribution of stresses and distortions with aerodynamic loads is studied. Factors such as tension, pressure and shear stress showed on wing of UAVs due to vibration which caused the structure of wing to break down and then failure. The experimental study was carried out by using wing made of composite material (foam and cover by lamination plate), where airfoil type (NACA Clark y) installed inside wind tunnel of low velocity. It is found that the vibration acceleration at constant wind velocity with variation of attack angle of the wing, it is obtained the relationship between the acceleration and the frequency using the LABVEIW program which analyzed and identified the distribution of forces on the wing. The stress concentration areas is created and found under failure occurs, the aerodynamic force, torsion torque and magnitude of deformation is calculated. It is concluded that the close areas from the root wing (fixed end) is most likely to collapse or break. © 2019 by authors.Aerodynamic load; Drag and lift forces; Pseudorandom vibration; Random vibration; UAVAtkins, E.M., Aerospace Engineering Curricular Expansion in Information Systems (2018) in Advances in Aeronautical Informatics, pp. 135-151. , ed: Springer; Jweeg, M.J., Abid-Aun, A.L.S.H., Optimization of Light Weight Aircraft Wing Structure (2018) JOURNAL OF ENGINEERING AND SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT, 12, pp. 1-22; Prabhu, M., Raj, J.N., Vignesh, G., Optimization of unmanned aerial vehicle wing structure (2015) IJISET-International Journal of Innovative Science, Engineering & Technology, 2, pp. 28-34; Goh, G., Agarwala, S., Goh, G., Dikshit, V., Sing, S., Yeong, W., Additive manufacturing in unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs): challenges and potential (2017) Aerospace Science and Technology, 63, pp. 140-151; Finn, A., Rogers, K., Rice, F., Meade, J., Holland, G., May, P., A Comparison of Vertical Atmospheric Wind Profiles Obtained from Monostatic Sodar and Unmanned Aerial Vehicle-Based Acoustic Tomography (2017) Journal of Atmospheric and Oceanic Technology, 34, pp. 2311-2328; Sethunathan, P., Seeman, M., Uthayakumar, M., Manimaran, G., STATIC AND DYNAMIC ANALYSIS ON ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROL SYSTEM OF REHEATER ATTACHMENT FOR A TYPICAL NAVAL FIGHTER AIRCRAFT (2016) International Journal of Advances in Engineering & Technology, 9, p. 153; Splichal, J., Pistek, A., Hlinka, J., Dynamic tests of composite panels of an aircraft wing (2015) Progress in Aerospace Sciences, 78, pp. 50-61; Komzsik, L., (2016) What every engineer should know about computational techniques of finite element analysis, , CRC Press; Samson, M., Monnet, T., Bernard, A., Lacouture, P., David, L., Analysis of a swimmer's hand and forearm in impulsive start from rest using computational fluid dynamics in unsteady flow conditions (2018) Journal of biomechanics, 67, pp. 157-165; Naudascher, E., (2017) Hydrodynamic Forces: IAHR Hydraulic Structures Design Manuals 3, , Routledge; Wirth, N., Bayrasy, P., Landvogt, B., Wolf, K., Cecutti, F., Lewandowski, T., Analysis and Optimization of Flow Around Flexible Wings and Blades Using the Standard Co-simulation Interface MpCCI (2017) in Recent Progress in Flow Control for Practical Flows, pp. 283-321. , ed: Springer; Goud, T.S.K., Kumar, A.S., Prasad, S.S., Analysis of fluid-structure interaction on an aircraft wing (2014) Analysis, 3, pp. 146-152; Zhang, L., Sun, C., Simulation Analysis of Fluid-Structure Interaction of High Velocity Environment Influence on Aircraft Wing Materials under Different Mach Numbers (2018) Sensors, 18, p. 1248; Li, X., Wang, W., Tang, Y., Wang, L., Bai, T., Zhao, F., Research on Gliding Aerodynamic Effect of Deformable Membrane Wing for a Robotic Flying Squirrel (2018) Journal of Bionic Engineering, 15, pp. 379-396; Abdullah, Y.M., Abdul Mujeebu, M., Ahmad, K., Effect of skin flexibility on aerodynamic performance of flexible skin flapping wings for micro air vehicles (2015) Experimental Techniques, 39, pp. 11-20; Isaac, S., (2017) PHILOSOPHIAE NATURALIS PRINCIPIA MATHEMATICA, , FORGOTTEN BOOKS; Marqués, P., "Advanced UAV Aerodynamics, Flight Stability and Control: An Introduction," (2017) Advanced UAV Aerodynamics, Flight Stability and Control: Novel Concepts, p. 1. , Theory and Applications; Tischler, M.B., System identification methods for aircraft flight control development and validation (2018) in Advances in Aircraft Flight Control, pp. 35-69. , ed: Routledge; Triet, N.M., Viet, N.N., Thang, P.M., Aerodynamic analysis of aircraft wing (2015) VNU Journal of Science: Mathematics-Physics, 31; Asthana, K., Jameson, A., Lele, S., Pinsky, P., (2016) "Analysis and Design of Optimal Discontinuous Finite Element Schemes,", , Stanford University; Rao, S.S., (2017) The finite element method in engineering, , Butterworth-heinemannMohsen, K.K.; College of Engineering, IraqHorizon Research Publishing23323353EnglishUnivers.

Many schemes have been developed to provide authentication mechanisms to ensure that only legitimate users are authorised to connect, but these schemes still suffer from vulnerable security. Various attacks expose patients' data for malicious tampering or destruction. Transferring health-related data and information between users and the health centre makes them exposed to penetration by adversaries as they may move through an insecure channel. In addition, previous mechanisms have suffered from the poor protection of users' authentication information. To ensure the protection of patients' information and data, we propose a scheme that authenticates users based on the information of both the device and the legitimate user. In this paper, we propose a Robust Authentication Model for Healthcare Users (RAMHU) that provides mutual authentication between the server and clients. This model utilizes an Elliptic Curve Integrated Encryption Scheme (ECIES) and PHOTON to achieve strong security and good overall performance. RAMHU relies on multiple-pseudonym, physical address, and one-time password mechanisms to authenticate legitimate users. Moreover, extensive informal and formal security analysis with the automated validation of Internet security protocols and applications (AVISPA) tool demonstrate that our model offers a high level of security in repelling a wide variety of possible attacks.

QoS mainly concerns minimizing the total completion time of tasks (i.e., makespan), response time, and increasing the efficiency of resource utilization. One of the most investigated techniques to meet QoS requirements in the cloud environment is adopting novel task scheduling strategies. Based on our studies, we found that existing solutions neglect the difference in efficiency of resource performance or the starved processes, which can strongly affect the scheduling solution outcome. In this paper, we consider this difference and propose a Hybrid-SJF-LJF (HSLJF) algorithm, which combines Shortest Job First (SJF) and Longest Job First (LJF) algorithms, while considering the load on resources. To start with, the algorithm sorts the submitted tasks in ascending order. Next, it selects one task according to SJF and another according to LSF. Finally, it selects a VM that has minimum completion time to execute the selected task. The experimental results indicate the superiority of HSLJF in minimizing the makespan, response time, and actual execution time while increasing the resource utilization and throughput when compared to the existing algorithms. © Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd 2019.Cloud computing; HSLJF; Makespan; Quality of service; Response timeAl-Dulaimy, A., Job submission in the cloud: Energy aware approaches (2016) Proceedings of the World Congress on Engineering and Computer Science, 1. , vol; Leena, V.A., Ajeena, B.A.S., Rajasree, M.S., Genetic algorithm based bi-objective task scheduling in hybrid cloud platform (2016) Int.

This study included forty patients were previously diagnosed with hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism, as well as healthy as control, male and female, in age group of 20-60 years. 5 ml of venous blood was collected from all subjects. Serums were used to determine the Hormones levels (TSH, T3, and T4) using a Cobas e411 system and Liver function and immunological parameters using Cobas Integra 400 plus. Total, direct, and indrect serum bilirubin were higher in the thyroid disorder (hyper-or hypo-thyrodisim) compared to control. GOT and GPT levels were significant higher in hyperthyroidism compared to hypothyroidism and control while no differences between hypothyroidism and control were detected. Transferrin and CRP levels were also significant higher in hyperthyroidism compared to hypothyroidism and control while no differences between hypothyroidism and control.TSH had positive correlation with total and direct serum bilirubin and transferrin and negative with GPT. T4 and T3 had positive correlation with GPT, GOT and CRP and negative with transferrin. As conclusion, thyroid disorders (hypo-or hyperthyroidism) effect negatively on liver function and immune parameters, and hyperthyroidism can be has more affects than hypothyroidism on these parameters. © 2019, Indian Journal of Public Health Research and Development.

A quasi experimental study design is carried out at AL-Hussein Teaching Hospital and An Nasiriyah Heart Center in AL-Nasiriyah City, from February, 2018through, November, 2018. A non-probability (Purposive sample) of (100) patients diagnosed with myocardial infarction divided into two group (50) patients as control group and (50) patients as study group. The data were collected through the use of questionnaire designed by researcher, which comprised of (2) parts: Part I: related to the Socio-demographic characteristics and Part II: Assessment of compliance toward dietary, by direct interview technique with the patients. Reliability of the questionnaire is determined through a pilot study and the validity through a panel of experts. The descriptive and inferential statistical procedures were used for analysis of data. Findings of the present study indicated that the education program recorded positive and meaningful results in improving patients’ compliance with dietary regimen. The results also showed that there was a non-significant relationship between socio-demographic characteristics variables and patient’s compliance with dietary regimen for study in pretest stage and posttest of study group by P value < 0.05. © 2019, Indian Journal of Public Health Research and Development.

By taking a discrete time delay as bifurcation parameter, we investigate the nonlinear dynamical behaviour arising from the model, using mathematical tools such as stability and bifurcation theory. Firstly, we discuss the existence and uniqueness of the equilibrium for this system and investigate the effect of discrete delay on its dynamical behaviour. Absence or limited delay causes the system to have a stable equilibrium, which changes into a Hopf point producing oscillations if time delay is increased. These sustained oscillation are shown to be present only if the nonlinear degradation rate for mRNA satisfies specific conditions. The direction of the Hopf bifurcation giving rise to such oscillations is also determined, via the use of the so-called multiple time scales technique. Finally, numerical simulations are shown to validate and expand the theoretical analysis. Overall, our findings suggest that the degree of nonlinearity of the model can be used as a control parameter for the stabilisation of the system. © 2019 the Author(s).Gene expression; Hopf bifurcation; Lac operon model; Nonlinear degradation; Stability analysisDegradation; Gene expression; Nonlinear analysis; Time delay; Timing circuits; Bifurcation parameter; Degree of non-linearity; Existence and uniqueness; Hopf bifurcation analysis; Lac operon; Stability analysis; Stability and bifurcation; Sustained oscillations; Hopf bifurcation; DNA; protein; RNA; algorithm; biological model; biology; chemistry; computer simulation; gene expression profiling; human; lactose operon; nonlinear system; oscillometry; physiology; time factor; Algorithms; Computational Biology; Computer Simulation; DNA; Gene Expression Profiling; Humans; Lac Operon; Models, Biological; Nonlinear Dynamics; Oscillometry; Proteins; RNA; Time FactorsDNA, 9007-49-2; protein, 67254-75-5; RNA, 63231-63-0; DNA; Proteins; RNAMinistry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, MHESRThe scholarship support provided to the first author by Thi-Qar University and Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research in Iraq is gratefully acknowledged.Goodwin, B., Oscillatory behaviour in enzymatic control process (1965) Adv.

The study is performed experimentally for turbulent flow system with use of air as a working fluid for a range of Reynolds number between 10000 to 50000. The conical nozzles integrated with triangle fins are utilized as turbulators to generate more complex mixing flow along the pipe wall. The plane conical nozzles turbulators are used for three various pitch ratios (Pr=1.0,1.5 and 2), and those fitted with triangle fins are tested at pitch ratio Pr=1.0 with two various area ratios of 0.064 and 0.149 respectively. The heat transfer of conical turbulators integrated with triangle fins is enhanced by 274% as compared with plain pipe and 55% as compared with inserted conical nozzle turbulators alone for the larger area ratio (Ar =0.149). In the addition, the Conical nozzle turbulators fitted with triangle fins give optimum overall thermal performance as compared with unfinned conical nozzle turbulators and plane tube. © 2006-2019 Asian Research Publishing Network (ARPN).Conical nozzle; Heat transfer; TurbulatorsMuthusamy, C., Vivar, M., Skryabin, I., Srithar, K., Effect of conical cut-out turbulators with internal fins in a circular tube on heat transfer and friction factor (2013) International Communications in Heat and Mass Transfer, 44, pp. 64-68; Parmar, K.S., Patel, M.J., Soni, U.R., Heat Transfer Enhancement Using Internal Fins of same Hydraulic Diameter (2014) International Journal on Recent and Innovation Trends in Computing and Communication, 2, pp. 2321-8169; Zdaniuk, G.J., Chamra, L.M., Mago, P.J., Experimental determination of heat transfer and friction in helically-finned tubes (2008) Experimental Thermal and Fluid Science, 32, pp. 761-775; Guo, L., Chen, J., Qin, F., Chen, Z., Zhang, W., Empirical correlations for lubricant side heat transfer and friction characteristics of the HPD type steel offset strip fin (2008) International Communications in Heat and Mass Transfer, 35, pp. 251-262; El-Sayed, S.A., El-Sayed, S.A., Abdel-Hamid, M.E., Sadoun, M.M., Experimental Study of Turbulent Flow Inside a Circular Tube with Longitudinal Interrupted Fins in the Streamwise Direction (1997) Experimental Thermal and Fluid Science, pp. 1-15; Kongkaitpaiboon, V., Nanan, K., Eiamsa-ard, S., Experimental investigation of heat transfer and turbulent flow friction in a tube fitted with perforated conical-rings (2010) International Communications in Heat and MassTransfer, 37, pp. 560-567; Promvonge, P., Eiamsaard, S., Heat transfer and turbulent flow friction in a circular tube fitted with conical-nozzle turbulators (2007) International Communications in Heat and Mass Transfer, 34, pp. 72-82; Durmus, A., Heat transfer and exergy loss in cut out conical turbulators (2004) Energy Conversion and Management, 45, pp. 785-796; Promvonge, P., Heat transfer behaviors in round tube with conical ring inserts (2015) Energy Conversion and Management, 49, pp. 8-15; Gowrisankar, K., Kishore, P.S.K., Augmentation Heat transfer in a circular tube using divergent nozzle as insert (2015) International Journal for Research in Applied Science & Engineering Technology, 3, pp. 2321-9653; Eiamsa-ard, S., Promvonge, P., Experimental investigation of heat transfer and friction characteristics in a circular tube fitted with V-nozzle turbulators (2006) International Communications in Heat and Mass Transfer, 33, pp. 591-600; Anvari, A.R., Lotfi, R., Rashidi, A.M., Sattari, S., Experimental research on heat transfer of water in tubes with conical ring inserts in transient regime (2011) International Communications in Heat and Mass Transfer, 38, pp. 668-671; Keklikcioglu, O., Dagdevir, T., Ozceyhan, V., A CFD based thermo-hydraulic performance analysis in a tube fitted with stepped conical nozzle turbulators (2016) Journal of Thermal Engineering Accepted, 2, pp. 913-920; Eiamsaard, S., Promvonge, P., Thermal characterization of turbulent tube flows over diamond-shaped elements in tandem (2010) International Journal of Thermal Sciences, 49, pp. 1051-1062; Promvonge, P., Eiamsa-ard, S., Heat transfer enhancement in a tube with combined conical-nozzle inserts and swirl generator (2006) Energy Conversion and Management, 47, pp. 2867-2882; Gupta, R.M., Bhushan, C., Bissa, heat transfer enhancement and friction factor analysis in tube using conial spring insert (2015) International Journal or Research, 4, pp. 253-260Mushatet, K.S.; Department of Mechanical Engineering, Iraq; email: khudheyersalim@gmail.comAsian Research Publishing Network18196608EnglishARPN J.

Heart valve replacement for patients aged from 10-80 years at Al-Nasiriya Heart Center studied in this study. The 87 cases, reporting predication of patients who underwent surgery for heart valve, information on the patients, heart valve diseases, causes valve diseases, valve diseases diagnosed, valve diseases treated and types of valve replacement. The results adopted 87 cases, mitral valve was the most valve has been replaced in 46 cases (53%) while aortic valve replaced in 27 cases (31%) and the double valve replaced in 14 cases (16%). Number of cases in 2014 was 28 (32%) in 2015 was 26 (30%) in 2016 was 8 (9%) and in 2017 was 25 (29%). The higher number of patients who underwent heart valve replacement was 27 for age between 40-50 years because at this age the valve will be more active and due to lack of attention and health care to prevent and avoid heart valve causes that will lead to damage and diseases, thus, at the end the damaged heart valve must be replaced. While the lowest number was 2 for aged between 70-80 years. The total center mortality from 2014-2017 was just two cases in 26th May. About 2014 patient underwent to MVR surgery at age about 10 years old died because of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT).

MicroRNAs are considered as significant regulators of cancer biological processes. The main aim of this study is restoration of miR-126 could lead to modulate breast cell line and impairs their proliferation by targeting vascular endothelial growth factor gene (VEGF-A). Methods: Breast cancer cell line (MCF7) was transfected by miR-126 lipofectamine and negative miR control for 24 hr. Cytotoxic effects of miR-126 lipofectamine were determined by cell viability assay. Cell proliferation and cell cycle were quantitatively measured using PicoGreen assay and DAPI stain-flow cytometer analysis. For further investigation, Taq-Man real time PCR assay was performed to detect relative VEGF-A and miRNA-126 level. Results: MiR-126 was overexpressed in treated breast cancer cell (MCF7) compared with control cells. miR-126 expression has been associated -with a decrease in cell proliferation and arrested MCF7 cells at G1 phase. The study found that vascular endothelial growth factor is regulated by miR- 126. Hence, VEGF-A is considered as functional vital and direct target to miR-126 in breast cancer cell line (MCF7). Conclusions: This study provided that manipulated miR-126 level may suggest a novel therapeutic approach in breast cancer treatment. However, an animal models study is needed to address and prove predictive ability of miR-126 on breast cancer controlling. © 2019 Asian Pacific Organization for Cancer Prevention.Cell cycle; MCF7 cell; MiR-126 lipofectamine; Taqman real time PCR assay; VEGF-A expressionmessenger RNA; microRNA; MIRN126 microRNA, human; vasculotropin A; VEGFA protein, human; breast tumor; cell cycle G1 phase; cell proliferation; cell survival; female; gene expression regulation; genetics; human; MCF-7 cell line; neovascularization (pathology); tumor cell line; Breast Neoplasms; Cell Line, Tumor; Cell Proliferation; Cell Survival; Female; G1 Phase; Gene Expression Regulation, Neoplastic; Humans; MCF-7 Cells; MicroRNAs; Neovascularization, Pathologic; RNA, Messenger; Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Avasculotropin A, 489395-96-2; MicroRNAs; MIRN126 microRNA, human; RNA, Messenger; Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A; VEGFA protein, humanAdams, R.H., Alitalo, K., Molecular regulation of angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis (2007) Nat Rev Mol Cell Biol, 8, pp. 464-478; Alevizakos, M., Kaltsas, S., Syrigos, K.N., The VEGF pathway in lung cancer (2013) Cancer Chemother Pharmacol, 72, pp. 1169-1181; Alhasan, L., Qi, A., Rezk, A.R., Assessment of the potential of a high frequency acoustomicrofluidic nebulisation platform for inhaled stem cell therapy (2016) Integr Biol (Camb), 8, pp. 12-20; Connolly, D.T., Olander, J.V., Heuvelman, D., Human vascular permeability factor (1989) Isolation from U937 cells.

Depending on the optical feedback (OFB) strength a complex bifurcation scenarios for the photon intensity were completely determined by the variation of the OFB in the QD as well as time series, inter-spike interval (ISI) and phase plane of all dynamic variables of the QD-LED. Our results show that small OFB lead to a good controllability of QD-LED dynamics as evidenced by the bifurcation diagram. The delay time leads to delay control of dynamics. Moreover, bias has a clear and greater effect than that of OFB. By adding a grating mirror as a special technique to suppress unwanted frequencies, there is an important transition between periodic and chaotic states. Delayed feedback and turn-on dynamics are studied. © 2018 Elsevier LtdChaos; Control; Dimensionless model; Grating mirror; Optical feedback; QD-LEDBifurcation (mathematics); Chaos theory; Control engineering; Dynamics; Mirrors; Nanocrystals; Optical feedback; Semiconductor quantum dots; Bifurcation diagram; Complex bifurcation; Dimensionless models; Dynamic variables; Grating mirrors; Inter spike intervals; Photon intensities; Quantum-dot light emitting diodes; Organic light emitting diodes (OLED)Al Naimee, K., Al Husseini, H., Abdalah, S.F., Al Khursan, A., Khedir, A.H., Meucci, R., Arecchi, F.T., Mixed mode oscillations and chaotic spiking in quantum dot light emitting diodes (2015) Proc IEEE, 7, p. 033; Al Husseini, H., Al Khursan, A., Al Naimee, K., Abdalah, S.F., Khedir, A.H., Meucci, R., Arecchi, F.T., Modulation Response, Mixed mode oscillations and chaotic spiking in Quantum Dot Light Emitting Diodes (2015) Chaos Solitons Fractals Nonlinear Science, and Nonequilibrium and Complex Phenomena, 78, pp. 229-237. , ELSEVIER; Al Naimee, K., Al Husseini, H., Abdalah, S.F., Al Khursan, A., Khedir, A.H., Meucci, R., Arecchi, F.T., Complex dynamics in quantum dot light emitting diodes (2015) Eur Phys J D, 257 (69), pp. 1-5; Bertram, M., Mikhailov, A.S., pattern formation in a surface chemical reaction with globlal delayed feedback (2001) Phys Rev E, 63; Azouigui, S., Dagens, B., Lelarge, F., Provost, J.G., Make, D., Le Gouezigou, O., Accard, A., Ramdane, A., Optical feedback tolerance of quantum-dot- and quantum-dash-based semiconductor lasers operating at 1:55m (2009) IEEE J Sel Topics Quant Electron, 15, p. 764; Lang, R., Kobayashi, K., Lang Kobayashi Laser equations (1980) IEEE J Quant Electron, 16, p. 347; Kim, T.R., Quantum-Dot Light-Emitting Diode (LED) (2008), Evident Technologies, Inc; Komine, T., Nakagawa, M., Fundamental analysis for visible-light communication system using LED lights (2004) IEEE Trans Consum Electron, 50, pp. 100-107; Dobrzanski, L., Low-frequency noise and charge transport in light emitting diodes with quantum dots (2004) J Appl Phys, 96, p. 4135; Detienne, D.H., Gray, G.R., Agrawal, G.P., Lenstra, D., Semiconductor laser dynamics for feedback from a finite-penetrationdepth phase-conjugate mirror (1997) IEEE J Quant Electron, 33, pp. 838-844; Ohtsubo, J., Semiconductor lasers Stability, instability and chaos, springer series in optical sciences (2008), 2nd Edition Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg; Fan, S., Villeneuve, P.R., Joannopoulos, J.D., Rate-equation analysis of output efficiency and modulation rate of photonic-crystal light-emitting diodes (2000) IEEE J Quant Electron, 36, p. 10; Al Husseini, H.B., Al Naimee, K.A., Al-Khursan, A.H., Khedir, A.H., External modes in quantum dot light emitting diode with filtered optical feedback (2016) J Appl Phys, 119; Yang, X., Ma, Y., Mutlugun, E., Zhao, Y., Wei Sun, X., Stable, efficient, and all-solution-processed quantum dot light emitting diodes with double-sided metal oxide nanoparticle charge transport layers (2014) ACS Appl Mater Interfaces, 6, pp. 495-499; O'Brien, D., Hegarty, S.P., Huyet, G., Sensitivity of quantum-dot semiconductor lasers to optical feedback (2004) Opt Lett, 29, p. 10; Globisch, B., Otto, C., Scholl, E., Ludge, K., Influence of carrier lifetimes on the dynamical behavior of quantum-dot lasers subject to optical feedback (2012) Phys Rev E, 86 (4-2); Al Khursan, A.H., Ghalibb, B.A., Al Obaidic, S.J., Numerical Simulation of Optical Feedback on a Quantum Dot Lasers,” Physics of semiconductor devices (2012) Semiconductors, 46 (2), pp. 213-220Husseini, H.B.A.; Dept. of Physics, Iraq; email: drhussain@sci.utq.edu.iqElsevier Ltd09600779CSFOEEnglishChaos Solitons FractalsArticleFinalScopus2-s2.0-85057172772

However, the performance of such systems degrades as their size is reduced. Graphene-based nanoelectronics has appeared as a candidate to enable high performance down to the single-molecule scale. Here, graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) can have bandgaps that are tunable by using chemical doping method. We have been predicted that bandgap engineering within a GNR may be achieved by varying the number and geometrical pattern of phosphorus (P) impurities in the GNS, so that we have carried out first-principles calculations of the energetic and electronic properties of P-doped GNR based on density functional theory (DFT) with Gaussian 09W packages. The geometric and electronic properties of the GNR with and without various dopants of phosphorus impurities were performed and discussed. Our results show that the electronic properties of GNR do not only depend on the phosphorus impurity concentrations, but also depend on the geometrical pattern of phosphorus impurities in the GNR. As a result, we can bandgap engineering of GNR by doping phosphorous impurities to create semiconductor heterostructure, which can be used in many important applications. © 2018Bandgap; DFT; Doping; DOS; Graphene nanoribbonCalculations; Cell engineering; Density functional theory; Doping (additives); DOS; Electronic properties; Energy conversion; Energy gap; Geometry; Graphene; Heterojunctions; Impurities; Nanoelectronics; Phosphorus; Resonant tunneling; Semiconductor doping; Solar cells; Solar energy; Energetic and electronic properties; First-principles calculation; Graphene nano-ribbon; Graphene nanoribbons (GNRs); Impurity concentration; Nano-heterostructures; Semiconductor heterostructure; Solar-cell applications; NanoribbonsNeto, A.C., Guinea, F., Peres, N.M., Novoselov, K.S., Geim, A.K., The electronic properties of graphene (2009) Rev.

Industrialization and modernization in the last few decades resulted in imbalance of the ecosystem by adding different chemical compounds, such as heavy metals, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), radioactive materials, xenobiotic, pesticides, hazardous chemicals and dyes. These compounds badly influenced the biological systems of plants, animals, microorganisms and human being. The high toxicity of some of these polluted compounds also negatively influence the normal function of the body. On the other hand, the presence of toxicants in chemical fertilizers, pesticides and sewage also contaminate the soil and potable water. There are several approaches which can solve the problem to certain extent and these are physical and chemical methods. These methods have some limitations, and not therefore, not that successful, on the other hand are not cost effective and also causes interference with natural water bodies' composition. Moreover, these physico-chemical methods also leads to different toxins and other compounds in the ecosystem. In spite of this, biological methods are now a days available which are eco-friendly and to some extent completely mineralize the organic pollutants. Another positive aspects of the these methods are that they are cost effective and does not generate toxic wastes. These biological approaches employs the potential microorganisms such as bacteria, algae and fungi under aerobic or anaerobic conditions. The use of microbial sources has several advantages mentioned above and have and long term applicability. © Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2018.Al-Jawhari, I.H., (1998) A study of fate herbicide propanil in rice field at AI-Qadisiya governorate and its effect on some water and soil microorganisms, , Ph D thesis, AI-Mustansiriya University, Iraq; Ai-Jawhari, I.H., Effect of cadmium chloride on some soil fungi (2000) J AI-Qadisiya, 5 (1), pp. 133-143; Ai-Jawhari, I.H., Effect of insecticide diazinon on some soil fungi in vitro (2001) J AI-Qadisiya, 6, pp. 63-77; Ai-Jawhari, I.H., Effect of Leadacetate on the mycelia growth of some fungi isolated from the soil of Thiqar governorate fields (2014) Iraq J Karbala Univ, 12 (1), pp. 108-116; Ai-Jawhari, I.H., Decolorization of methylene blue and crystal violet by some filamentous fungi (2015) Int J Environ Bioremd Biodeg, 3 (2), pp. 62-65; Al-Jawhari, I.H., Comparative study to determine the effect of diazinon and vapona on Pseudomonas aeruginosa (2015) Int J Biol Pharma Allied Sci, 4 (6), pp. 4214-4224; Ambrosio, S.T., Campos-Takaki, G.M., Decolorization of reactive azo dyes by Cunninghamella elegans UCP 542 under cometabolic conditions (2004) Bioresour Technol, 91, pp. 69-75; Banat, I.M., Nigam, P., McMullan, G., Marchant, R., Singh, D., Microbial decolorization of textile dye containing effluents: A review (1996) Bioresour Technol, 58, pp. 217-227; Cha, C.J., Doerge, D.R., Cerniglia, C.E., Biotransformation of malachite green by the fungus Cunninghamella elegans (2001) Appl Environ Microbiol, 67, pp. 4358-4360; Chowdhury, S., Mishra, R., Saha, P., Kushwaha, P., Adsorption the thermodynamics, kinetics and isosteric heat of adsorption of malachite green onto chemically modified rice husk (2011) Desalination, 265, pp. 159-168; Curfs, D.M., Beckers, L., Godschalk, R.W., Gijbels, M.J., van Schooten, F.J., Modulation of plasma lipid levels affects benzo[a]pyrene-induced DNA damage in tissues of two hyperlipidemic mouse models (2003) Environ Mol Mutagen, 42, pp. 243-249; Dong, Y., Bin, L.U., Shuying, Z., Jingxiang, Z., Xiaoguang, W., Qinghai, C., Removal of methylene blue from colored effluents by adsorption onto SBA-15 (2011) Chem Technol Biotechnol, 86 (4), pp. 616-619; Dos Santos, A.Z., Neto, J.M.C., Tavares, C.R.G., da Costa, M.G., Screening of filamentous fungi for the decolorization of a commercial reactive dye (2004) J Basic Microbiol, 44, pp. 288-295; Du, L.N., Wang, S., Li, G., Wang, B., Jia, X.M., Zhao, Y.H., Chen, Y.L., Biodegradation of malachite green by Pseudomonas sp. strain DYI under aerobic condition: Characteristics, degradation products, enzyme analysis and phytotoxicity (2011) Ecotoxicology, 20 (2), pp. 438-446; El-Rahim, W.M.A., Moawad, H., Enhancing bioremoval of textile dyes by eight fungal strains from media supplemented with gelatin wastes and sucrose (2003) J Basic Microbiol, 43, pp. 367-375; Forgacs, E., Cserhati, T., Oros, G., Removal of synthetic dyes from wastewaters: A review (2004) Environ Int, 30, pp. 953-971; Francis, A.J., Microbial dissolution and stabilization of toxic metals and radio nuclides in mixed water (1990) Experientia, 46, pp. 840-851; Francis, A.J., Microbial transformations of radioactive wastes and environmental restoration through bioremediation (1994) J Alloys Compd, 213, pp. 226-231; Fu, Y., Viraraghavan, T., Fungal decolorization of dye wastewater: A review (2001) Biores Technol, 79, pp. 251-262; Gadd, G.M., Microbial formation and transformation of organometallic and organometalloid compounds (1993) FEMS Microbiol Rev, 11, pp. 297-316; Geesey, G., Jang, L., Extracellular polymers for metal binding (1990) Microbial mineral recovery, pp. 223-247. , In: Ehrlich HL, Brierly CL (eds).

Methods: Myocardial infarction was induced in rats by intraperitoneally injection of isoproterenol (85mg/kg) for two consecutive days at an interval of 24 h. Rats were treated with phenolic extract of cyperus rotundus rhizomes at two doses (15mg/kg, 30 mg/kg) for period 21 days and isoproterenol was injected on the 21th and 22th day. At the end of experiment i.e. on the 23th day biochemical changes were monitored from control and experimental groups. Results: ISO injected rats showed a significant increase in d-dimer levels. In addition, it also exhibited alteration in the levels of electrolytes (Na+ and Cl-). It also showed significant decrease in level of K+. Pretreatment with phenolic extract of cyperus rotundus rhizomes significantly prevented the ISO induced alteration in biochemical changes. Conclusions: The present result shows that treatment with phenolic extract of cyperus rotundus rhizomes in ISO injected rats significantly attenuates induced myocardial infarction. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.cyperus rotundus; electrolytes; Isopreterenol; Myocardial infractionCardiology; Crime; Electrolytes; Biochemical changes; Cyperus rotundus; Experimental groups; Isopreterenol; Myocardial Infarction; Myocardial infraction; Phenolic extracts; Protective effects; RatsAkazawa, H., Komuro, I., Roles of cardiac transcription factors in cardiac hypertrophy (2003) Circulation Research, 92 (10), p. 1079; Bénitah, J.P., Kerfant, B.G., Vassort, G., Richard, S., Gómez, A.M., Altered communication between L-type calcium channels and ryanodine receptors in heart failure (2002) Front Biosci, 7 (1-3), p. e263. , 263; Shiny, K.S., Kumar, S.H., Farvin, K.H., Anandan, R., Devadasan, K., Protective effect of myocardial infraction (1989) J.

In this work we have compared the thermoelectric properties of FeCP with two different configurations. The results show that the spin-dependent transport properties can be affected by the molecular structure and the substitution of the terminal thiol groups plays an important role on the spin-dependent transmission of the molecular junctions. Meanwhile, electrical conductance and thermal conductance also affected. The thermoelectric properties of Ferrocene (FeCp2) for these two different configurations have been compared. Thus, all these transport properties are combined to produce a good value of the roomerature figure of merit ZT. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.and seeback coefficient; density functional theory; Ferrocene; spin polarizationIron compounds; Organometallics; Spin polarization; Thermoelectric equipment; Thermoelectricity; Transport properties; Electrical conductance; Exchange and correlation functionals; Ferrocenes; Functional approximation; Seeback coefficients; Spin-dependent transmission; Spin-dependent transport properties; Thermoelectric properties; Density functional theoryWeibel, N., Grunder, S., Mayor, M., (2007) Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry, 5, pp. 2343-2353; Van Der Molen, S.J., Liljeroth, P., (2010) Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter, 22 (13); Aradhya, S.V., Venkataraman, L., (2013) Nature Nanotechnology, 8 (6), p. 399; Malen, J.A., Yee, S.K., Majumdar, A., Segalman, R.A., (2010) Chemical Physics Letters, 491 (4-6), pp. 109-122; Yan, R.-W., Jin, X., Guan, S.-Y., Zhang, X.-G., Pang, R., Tian, Z.-Q., Wu, D.-Y., Mao, B.-W., (2016) The Journal of Physical Chemistry C, 120 (22); Khoo, K.H., Chen, Y., Li, S., Quek, S.Y., (2015) Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics, 17 (1), pp. 77-96; Tyagi, P., Li, D., Holmes, S.M., Hinds, B.J., (2007) Journal of the American Chemical Society, 129 (16), pp. 4929-4938; Schull, G., Frederiksen, T., Arnau, A., Sánchez-Portal, D., Berndt, R., (2010) Nature Nanotechnology, 6 (1), p. 23; Han, H., Zhang, Y., Wang, N., Samani, M.K., Ni, Y., Mijbil, Z.Y., Edwards, M., Volz, S., (2016) Nature Communications, 7 (1); Lu, F.-P., Wang, Q., Zhou, X., (2013) Chinese Physics B, 22 (3); Luneau, D., (2001) Current Opinion in Solid State and Materials Science, 5 (2-3), pp. 123-129; Caneschi, A., Gatteschi, D., Totti, F., (2015) Coordination Chemistry Reviews, 289-290, pp. 357-378; Bogani, L., Wernsdorfer, W., (2008) Nature Materials, 7 (3), p. 179; Feringa, B.L., Van Delden, R.A., Koumura, N., Geertsema, E.M., (2000) Chemical Reviews, 100 (5), pp. 1789-1816; Li, H., Qu, D.-H., (2015) Science China Chemistry, 58 (6), pp. 916-921; Aviram, A., Ratner, M.A., (1974) Chemical Physics Letters, 29 (2), pp. 277-283; Van Dyck, C., Ratner, M.A., (2015) Nano Letters, 15 (3), pp. 1577-1584; Geddes, N.J., Sambles, J.R., Martin, A.S., (2004) Advanced Materials for Optics and Electronics, 5 (6), pp. 305-320; Dhirani, A., Lin, P.H., Guyot-Sionnest, P., Zehner, R.W., Sita, L.R., (1997) The Journal of Chemical Physics, 106 (12), pp. 5249-5253; Noori, M., Sadeghi, H., Al-Galiby, Q., Bailey, S.W., Lambert, C.J., (2017) Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics, 19 (26); Noori, M., Sadeghi, H., Lambert, C.J., (2017) Nanoscale, 9 (16), pp. 5299-5304; Noori, M., Aragonès, A.C., Di Palma, G., Darwish, N., Bailey, S.W., Al-Galiby, Q., Grace, I., Díez-Pérez, I., (2016) Scientific Reports, 6 (1); Soler, J.M., Artacho, E., Gale, J.D., García, A., Junquera, J., Ordejón, P., Sánchez-Portal, D., (2002) Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter, 14 (11), p. 2745; Perdew, J.P., Burke, K., Ernzerhof, M., (1996) Physical Review Letters, 77 (18), p. 3865; Hammer, B., Hansen, L.B., Nørskov, J.K., (1999) Physical Review B, 59 (11), p. 7413; Ferrer, J., Lambert, C.J., Garcia-Suarez, V.M., Manrique, D.Z., Visontai, D., Oroszlany, L., Rodriguez-Ferradas, R., Algharagholy, L.A., (2014) New Journal of PhysicsInstitute of Physics Publishing1st International Conference on Materials Engineering and Sciences, IConMEAS 20188 August 2018 through 9 August 201814328617578981EnglishIOP Conf.

In indoor positioning systems (IPS), WLAN fingerprinting-based methods require recording received signal strength (RSS) of surrounding access points (APs). These are usually more than the necessary number of APs needed by the IPS system. Therefore, eliminating redundant or non-informative APs does not only reduce computational cost, which is necessary for the real-Time system, but also improves the accuracy of the indoor positioning system. In this paper, we present a particle swarm optimization (PSO)-based technique to select the most informative APs at each clustered area, where K-means clustering method is utilized to confine location of the user into a small area. At each cluster, PSO is applied to select the best joint combination of APs decided by the minimum mean of distance error. Simulation results show that the proposed system outperforms the behavior of the other commonly proposed selection methods such as random, strongest APs, and Fisher criterion. © 2018 IEEE.AP Selection; Indoor Positioning System; K-Means clustering; Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO)Clustering algorithms; Indoor positioning systems; Interactive computer systems; Real time systems; Wireless local area networks (WLAN); Access point selection; AP selection; Computational costs; Indoor localization; Indoor positioning system (IPS); K - means clustering; K-means clustering method; Received signal strength; Particle swarm optimization (PSO)Zheng Yang, Y.L., Wu, C., Location-based computing (2014) Localization and Localizability of Wireless Networks Tsinghua University Press; (2014) System and Method for Locating, Tracking, And/or Monitoring the Status of Personnel And/or Assets Both Indoors and Outdoors, 712, p. 686. , U.S Patent 8 Apr; Giuliano, M.P.R., Mazzenga, F., Vari, M., (2013) Indoor Localization System for First Responders in Emergency Scenario.

Activations have been conducted utilising three agents: Sulphuric acid (H2SO4), potassium hydroxide (KOH), and zinc chloride (ZnCl2). Characterisations of the porosities of AC preparations were performed using N2 adsorption-desorption to ascertain BET and micropore surface areas as well as micropore volumes and pore-size distributions. Existing groups on the AC surfaces were resolved using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) analyses. The morphologies of the activated carbons were assessed via scanning-electron microscopic methods (SEM) combined with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopic techniques (EDX). The maximal surface areas (1639.34 m2/g), pore volume (0.649 cm3/g), micropore volume (0.335 cm3/g), and micropore surface area (1,148.58 m2/g) of the prepared AC using sago palm bark were discovered at activation temperatures of 700oC and with chemical impregnation ratios of 1.51/ zinc chloride to precursors. In the instance of KOH and H2SO4 utilisation, the surface areas of the AC preparations corresponded to 970.38 m2/g and 630.73 m2/g with pore volume of 0.458 and 0.196 cm3/g, respectively. © 2018 University of Kuwait.

A quasi experimental study was used for the present study which was carried out from 20 th November 2017 to the 1st August 2018 in order to determine Effectiveness of Planned Teaching Program regarding Autistic Child in Mothers Knowledge in Thi-Qar Autistic Center in AL- Nasiriya City, a purposive (non- probability) sample was used in this study the sample composed of (60) mothers accompanied their autistic children include (30) sample for study group and (30) sample for control group. The validity of the questionnaire was obtained through a panel of experts and the internal consistency reliability was achieved through the application of Alpha Correlation Coefficient (r=0. 76) which was statistically acceptable. The results indicated that mothers had moderate level of knowledge about the child of autism for all items of the scale before apply program. After apply program there are no significant correlation between age, gender, level of education, social status, number of autistic children, mother’s profession and between mother’s knowledge about autism. © 2018, Indian Journal of Public Health Research and Development.

These complexes crystallize from aqueous solutions containing 10:1 ratios of B(OH) 3 and the appropriate Zn(II) amine complexes ([Zn(en) 3 ][OH] 2 or [Zn(pn) 3 ][OH] 2 ) through self-assembly processes. The hexaborate(2−) anions in 1 and 2 are coordinated to two Zn(II) centers and form one-dimensional (1-D) polymeric coordination chains. R 2 2 (8) and R 2 2 (6) inter-chain H-bond interactions play an important role in these self-assembly processes and are discussed. © 2018 by the authors.

Hence a total of 71 patients with diagnosis of overactive bladder were enrolled and randomly assigned into two groups; mirabegron 50 and B who received 50 and 100 mg mirabegrone, respectively and patients were followed for 8 weeks. Only 66 patients completed the study. Mirabegron at doses of 50 and 100 mg once daily demonstrated improvement from baseline to final visit in reducing the mean number of micturitions per 24 hours which increased with mirabegron dose but no significant improvement between mirabegron groups. There’s significant improvement between mirabegron groups in mean baseline to end-of-treatment for urgency episodes (p<0.001) and level of urgency incontinence (p<0.01). In conclusion, Mirabegron at doses of 50 and 100 mg once-daily over 8 weeks demonstrated satisfactory balance between efficacy and tolerability in Overactive Bladder patients. © 2018, Indian Journal of Public Health Research and Development.

Blood samples were collected from 20 men didn’t play any sport and 82 sport men who divided to four groups: 20 bodybuilder men consuming AAS, 20 consuming DS, 20 without consuming, and 22 football players. BMI of the subjects were also calculated. BMI and The frequency of overweight were significant higher in bodybuilder consuming AAS compared to other groups. Total and direct serum billirubin was significant higher in football player than bodybuilder consuming AAS and DS. The total bilirubin was also significant higher in football player than non sport men. While Alkaline Phosphate (ALKP) level was significant lower, Aspartate transaminase AST and Alanine transaminase (ALT) level were significant higher in serum of bodybuilder consuming AAS. Furthermore, their levels in bodybuilder consuming diet supplement were significant higher than non sport. No differences in ultra high-density lipoproteins (UHDL) and Cholesterol (Chol) levels were detected while Trig level was significant lower in serum of football player. Triglyceride (Trig) level was also significant lower in the serum of bodybuilder without consuming than consuming AAS. The differences of these parameters were studied in Bodybuilder consuming AAS and diet supplement groups in three consuming period: less 1 year, 1 to 2 years, and more than 2 years. No differences between the two groups after consuming period less than 1yr and 1-2yr while significant higher in bodybuilder consuming AAS after more than 2yr compared to consuming supplement were detected. As conclusion, both AAS and protein supplements have side effects on the liver function and other biochemical parameters and these effects increase with the consuming period especially the effects of AAS. © 2018, Indian Journal of Public Health Research and Development.

The advantageous properties of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite material promote its use as an alternative construction material for piles in aggressive soil environments. This paper investigates the interface friction characteristics between different granular materials and FRP composites through interface shear testing using a modified direct shear apparatus. Two FRP materials: glass and carbon fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP and CFRP), with different surface topographies, besides mild steel were used as the counterface materials. Additionally, four different types of sands and three types of glass beads (GB) were tested with the counterface materials at different normal stresses ranging from 27.7 kPa to 180.5 kPa. The results indicate that the shear mechanism and resulting friction coefficients for the particulate/FRP interface systems are dependent on a combination of several factors such as the particles size and angularity, the surface roughness of the counterface material, and the applied normal stress level. Additionally, higher interface friction coefficients were measured for both FRP composites compared to the conventional mild steel, demonstrating the applicability of their use in the piles industry. © IAEME Publication.FRP composites; Granular Materials; Interface Friction; Modified Shear Apparatus; Surface RoughnessAbuel-Naga, H., Shaia, H., Bouazza, A., Effect of surface roughness and hardness of continuum materials on interface shear strength of granular materials (2018) Journal of Testing and Evaluation, 46 (2), pp. 826-831; Ballinger, C., Structural FRP composites (1990) Civil Engineering, pp. 63-65. , ASCE; Becque, J., Patnaik, A.K., Rizkalla, S., Analytical models for concrete confined with FRP tubes (2003) Journal of Composites for Construction, 7 (1), pp. 31-38; Dove, J.E., Frost, J.D., Peak friction behavior of smooth geomembrane-particle interfaces (1999) Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering, 125 (7), pp. 544-555; Fam, A.Z., Rizkalla, S.H., Confinement model for axially loaded concrete confined by circular fibre-reinforced polymer tubes (2001) ACI Structural Journal, 98 (4), pp. 451-461; Fardis, M.N., Khalili, H., Concrete encased in fiberglass plastic (1981) ACI Proceedings, 78, pp. 440-446. , Document JL78-38; Frost, J.D., Han, J., Behavior of interfaces between fiber-reinforced polymers and sands (1999) Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering, 125 (8), pp. 633-640; Heinz, R., Plastic piling (1993) Civil Engineering, pp. 63-65; Iskander, M.G., Hanna, S., Stachula, A., Driveability of FRP composite piling (2001) Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering, 127 (2), pp. 169-176; Mirmiran, A., Shahawy, M., El Khoury, C., Naguib, W., Large beam-column tests on concrete-filled composite tubes (2000) ACI Structural Journal, 97 (2), pp. 268-277; Pando, M.A., Filz, G.M., Dove, J.E., Hoppe, E.J., Interface shear tests on FRP composite piles (2002) ASCE International Deep Foundations Congress, pp. 1486-1500. , Orlando, Florida; Rowe, P.W., The stress-dilatancy relation for static equilibrium of an assembly of particles in contact (1962) Proceedings of The Royal Society of London.

PV system needs to apply the (MPPT) algorithm due to the instability of external circumstances like solar radiation and temperature. An artificial neural network applied to perform the optimization process and get the MPP value of PV system. This paper also presents a control strategy for power management in a grid -connected photovoltaic and wind turbine systems based on fuzzy logic technique. The control strategy was established to manage the flow of the power and select the optimum operating mode to ensuring continuous supply of the power. Results showed that the suggested control strategy for the hybrid system gives a greater reliability in terms of power generation and distribution compared to a stand- alone system with single source. The power distribution between the sources are 2.1855% of power from photovoltaic cells only, 2.9592% from wind turbine and 75.1772% of power are provided by wind turbine and photovoltaic cells, the remaining 19.6781% of the power is supplied through the grid.

Due to the complexity of environmental conditions, the design specifications in national and international standards are still open to discussion to achieve both sufficient and efficient protection for reinforced concrete structures in engineering practices. This paper reports an experimental research to investigate the influence of chloride content on concrete resistivity, rebar corrosion rate and the performance of CP operation using different current densities. It aims to understand the correlation between the chloride content and concrete resistivity together with the CP current requirement, and to investigate the precision of the CP design criteria in standards. © 2018, The Author(s).Cathodic protection; Concrete resistivity; CP design criteria; Reinforcement corrosionCathodic protection; Chlorine compounds; Concrete buildings; Concrete construction; Corrosion rate; Electrochemical corrosion; Steel corrosion; Concrete resistivity; Cp designs; Efficient protections; Engineering practices; Environmental conditions; Experimental research; International standards; Reinforcement corrosion; Reinforced concreteAcknowledgements This study was funded by the Iraqi Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research Scholarship Program.Ahmad, S., Reinforcement corrosion in concrete structures, its monitoring and service life prediction—a review (2003) Cem Concr Compos, 25, pp. 459-471; Kendell, K., (1995) A five year review of the application of cathodic protection to various industrial concrete structures in the Arabian Gulf, pp. 265-280. , Second regional concrete durability in the Arabian Gulf, Bahrain; Buenfeld, N.R., Glass, G.K., Hassanein, A.M., Zhang, J.-Z., Chloride transport in concrete subjected to electric field (1998) J Mater Civ Eng, 10, pp. 220-228; Verma, S.K., Bhadauria, S.S., Akhtar, S., Monitoring corrosion of steel bars in reinforced concrete structures (2014) Sci World, 2014, p. 957904; Popoola, A., Olorunniwo, O.E., Ige, O.O., Corrosion Resistance Through the Application of Anti- Corrosion Coatings (2014) Developments in Corrosion Protection; Martínez, I., Andrade, C., Application of EIS to cathodically protected steel: tests in sodium chloride solution and in chloride contaminated concrete (2008) Corros Sci, 50, pp. 2948-2958; Wilson, K., Jawed, M., Ngala, V., The selection and use of cathodic protection systems for the repair of reinforced concrete structures (2013) Constr Build Mater, 39, pp. 19-25; Christodoulou, C., Glass, G., Webb, J., Austin, S., Goodier, C., Assessing the long term benefits of Impressed Current Cathodic Protection (2010) Corros Sci, 52, pp. 2671-2679; Aperador, W., Bautista-Ruiz, J., Chunga, K., Determination of the efficiency of cathodic protection applied to alternative concrete subjected to carbonation and chloride attack (2015) Int J Electrochem Sci, 10, pp. 7073-7082; Muehlenkamp, E., Koretsky, M., Westall, J., Effect of moisture on the spatial uniformity of cathodic protection of steel in reinforced concrete (2005) Corrosion, 61, pp. 519-533; Kepler, J.L., Darwin, D., Locke, C.E., (2000) Evaluation of corrosion protection methods for reinforced concrete highway structures, , http://www2.ku.edu/~iri/projects/corrosion/SM58.PDF, Kansas department of transportation K-tran project No. Ku-99-6, University of Kansas centre for research, Inc.

The total energy, orbital (HOMO, LUMO) distributions, the energy gaps, the maximum open circuit voltage, maximum wavelength absorption, vertical absorption energies, and oscillator strengths have been investigated and discussed. We studied and discussed effect the donor group substituents (COH, and CP) and the acceptor group substituents (Br, OH, Cl, F, and CN) on optimization geometric, electronic properties, and optical properties the molecules, we observed that the donor group substituents lead to decrease energy gap and the acceptor group substituents lead to increase energy gap. These changes give alteration of maximum wavelengths absorption from 453.1 to 559.9 nm. Therefore, these compounds have major absorption bands inside the solar spectrum, to give a present better performance for the solar cells and photovoltaic devices. © 2018DFT; DOS; Photovoltaic; Solar cell; ThiadiazoleAbsorption spectroscopy; Bromine compounds; Cell engineering; Chlorine compounds; Density functional theory; Design for testability; DOS; Electronic properties; Energy gap; Open circuit voltage; Optical properties; Organic compounds; Oscillators (electronic); Photoelectrochemical cells; Photovoltaic cells; Solar power generation; Absorption energies; Acceptor groups; Optoelectronic properties; Oscillator strengths; Photovoltaic; Photovoltaic devices; Theoretical study; Thiadiazoles; Solar cellsNguyen, V., Potje-Kamloth, K., Electrical and chemical sensing properties of doped polypyrrole/gold Schottky barrier diodes (1999) Thin Solid Films, 338, pp. 142-148; Adam, G., Pivrikas, A., Ramil, A.M., Tadesse, S., Yohannes, T., Sariciftci, N.S., Mobility and photovoltaic performance studies on polymer blends: effects of side chains volume fraction (2011) J.

This continuing injury trend requires further understanding of the causes of safety issues as well as what magnifies safety risk. This study aims to investigate the extent of the impact of different factors on worker safety risk. The factors, namely human, site conditions, psychological, environmental, social, economic, regulatory, ergonomic, and organizational, were developed as part of recently formulated degrees of connectivity (DoC) model scenarios utilizing the risk perception of different specialists. The risk perceptions associated with the factors as provided by construction safety university professors and practicing safety engineers are explored for comparison. The Delphi method was adopted to collect the required data from both mentioned groups. The results show that the participants perceive that site condition factors create the highest impact whereas the worker economic factor adds the lowest impact. No significant difference was observed between the two groups in terms of risk perception, nor was there a clear impact of participant experience on the risk perception process and the factors under investigation. Safety planners can benefit from the study results by considering the level of impact that the factors have on worker safety. Moreover, when addressing safety on a project, both professors and engineers can contribute equally. © 2018 American Society of Civil Engineers.Construction safety; Delphi method; Risk factors; Safety professors and engineers; Statistical analysisEngineers; Risk assessment; Risk perception; Safety engineering; Statistical methods; Construction safety; Delphi method; Economic factors; Risk factors; Safety issues; Safety risks; Site conditions; Worker safety; Occupational risksHigher Committee for Education Development in Iraq, HCEDThis research was partially supported by the Higher Committee for Education in Iraq (HCED) with Grant No. D1000737.

This new type of lasing, which results from the quantum interference of spontaneous emission components, was not discussed earlier in quantum dot nanostructures. It is found that both pumping and cycling fields control the laser emission. The decrease of the cycling detuning increases the possibility of lasing. Probe detuning controls the width of the absorption bath (electromagnetic-induced transparency window) of this structure. This phenomenon can have an interesting application for developing sources of coherent radiation in a region of electromagnetic spectrum where the implementation of traditional laser schemes is difficult. © 2018, Indian Academy of Sciences.32.80.Xx; 42.55.Px; 78.67.Hc; Double quantum dot; lasing without inversion; Y-structureNanocrystals; Pumping (laser); 32.80.Xx; 42.55.Px; 78.67.Hc; Double quantum dots; Lasing without inversion; Y-structures; Semiconductor quantum dotsLovett, B.W., Reina, J.H., Nazir, A., Andrew, G., Briggs, D., (2008) Quantum Phys., 8, p. 1; Hutchins, B.M., Morgan, T.T., Mi G Ucak-Astarlioglu and M E Williams (2007) J.

Mashrei M.35756570400;Effects of steel fibres and silica fume on the behaviours of square ferrocement slabs under flexural loading2018IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering4331012025410.1088/1757-899X/433/1/012025https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85058400837&doi=10.1088%2f1757-899X%2f433%2f1%2f012025&partnerID=40&md5=b5f7968d27f860a4ce53c33880726cbeCivil Department, College of Engineering, Thi Qar University, IraqMashrei, M., Civil Department, College of Engineering, Thi Qar University, IraqFerrocement is a type of thin reinforced concrete made of a cement-sand matrix with closely spaced relatively small diameter wire meshes, with or without steel bars of small diameter which are known as skeletal steel. This work concerns the behaviours of square ferrocement slabs with dimensions of 500 × 500 × 30 mm when subjected to flexural load. This study included testing thirteen ferrocement slabs, and the main variables considered in the experimental work were the number of wire mesh layers, percentage of silica fume and presence of steel fibre. The effects of these variables on the behaviours and load carrying capacities of tested slabs under central loads were investigated. From the experimental results, increasing the percentage of silica fume from 0% to 6% caused ultimate flexural loads to increase up to 4.5% replacement. The load carrying capacity also increases with presence of steel fibre reinforcement, and the ductility is high where steel fibres are included. The results also suggest that an increase in wire mesh layers from six to ten layers leads to an increase in load capacity by 76%. Finally, the results show that the addition of steel fibres can reduce the crack width and increase the number of cracks compared to samples without fibres. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.behaviour; Ferrocement; Fibre; Silica Fume; SlabFibers; Load limits; Loads (forces); Mesh generation; Reinforced concrete; Shotcreting; Silica fume; Wire; behaviour; Crack width; Flexural loading; Flexural loads; Load capacity; Slab; Small diameter wires; Steel fibre reinforcement; Steel fibersNaaman, A.E., (2000) Ferrocement and Laminated Cementitious Composites, 2000, p. 372. , 2000 (Techno press MI3000); Shah, S., New reinforcing materials in concrete (1974) American Concrete Institute J., 71. , 71-16 Proceeding; Paul, B., Pama, R., (1978) Ferrocement, International Ferrocement Information Center, , (Bangkok, Thailand: Asian Institute of Technology); Lee, S.L., Mechanical Properties of Ferrocement (1972) FAO Seminar on the Design and Construction of Ferrocement Vessels; Balaguru, P., State-of-the-art Report on Ferrocement (1997) ACI Committee, p. 549; Kaish, A., An approach to improve conventional square ferrocement jacket for strengthening application of short square RC column (2016) Mater Struct, 49 (3), pp. 1025-1037; Sakir, S., Self-flowing mortar for ferrocement in strengthening applications (2016) Perspectives in Science, 8, pp. 673-676; Nagan, S., Mohana, R., Behaviour of geopolymer ferrocement slabs subjected to impact (2014) IJST-T Civ Eng, 38, p. 223; Işikdaǧ, B., Characterization of lightweight ferrocement panels containing expanded perlite-based mortar (2015) Constr Build Mater, 81, pp. 15-23; Toutanji, H.A., El-Korchi, T., The influence of silica fume on the compressive strength of cement paste and mortar (1995) Cement Concrete Res, 25 (7), pp. 1591-1602; Al-Rifaie, W., Trikha, D., Effect of arrangement and orientation of hexagonal mesh on the behavior of two-way ferrocement slabs (1990) Journal of Ferrocement., 20, pp. 219-230; Hago, A., Ultimate and service behavior of ferrocement roof slab panels (2005) Constr Build Mater, 19 (1), pp. 31-37; Deepa, S., Thenmozhi, R., An Experimental investigation on the flexural behavior of scc ferrocement slabs incorporating fibers (2012) Int J Eng Sci Technol.; Shannag, M.J., Ziyyad, T.B., Flexural response of ferrocement with fibrous cementitious matrices (2007) Constr Build Mater, 21 (6), pp. 1198-1205; Mohamad, N.M., Sura, A.M., Flexural Behavior of Flat and Folded Ferrocement Panel (2009) Constr Build Mater, 24, pp. 222-229; Raj, K.S., Kumar, P.M., Experimental Investigation of Moment Curvature Characteristics of Ferrocement Hollow Slab (2012) J0SR JMCE, 2, pp. 33-37; (2015), (West Conshohocken: ASTM C-150); (2013), American Society of Testing Materials (ASTM) (WC, PA: ASTM C-33); (2000) Specification, Performance, Production and and Conformity, , European Standard (EN 206-1); (2013), American Society of Testing Materials (ASTM) (West Conshohocken, PA: ASTM C-109); British Standard Testing concrete Part 118 1983 Method for Determination of Flexural Strength: BS 1881part 118; Cohen, M., A look at silica fume and its actions in Portland cement concrete (1990) Indian Concrete J, 64, pp. 429-438; Mak, S.L., Torii, K., Strength development of high strength concretes with and without silica fume under the influence of high hydration temperatures (1995) Cement Concrete Res, 25 (8), pp. 1791-1802; Zhang, M.-H., Gjørv, O.E., Effect of silica fume on cement hydration in low porosity cement pastes (1991) Cement Concrete Res, 21 (5), pp. 800-808; Prashant, Y., Performance of steel fiber on standard strength concrete in compression (2011) Int J Civ Struct Eng, 2, p. 483; Sobolev, K., Soboleva, S., (1996) Proceedings of the 4th International Conference, , (Famagusta: TRNC) High strength concrete mix design and properties optimization, concrete technology in developing countries 1996Mashrei, M.; Civil Department, Iraq; email: moha74ed@yahoo.comInstitute of Physics Publishing2nd International Conference on Engineering Sciences-University of Kerbala, ICES-UoK 201826 March 2018 through 27 March 201814288117578981EnglishIOP Conf.

The present paper aims to investigate the influences of the main process input factors on weld geometry, metallurgical characteristics, and mechanical properties of weldments of 3.8-mm-thick plates of austenitic stainless steel type 304L using tungsten inert gas welding with pulsed/non-pulsed current processes. This research paper investigates the effects on the arc pressure of pulse frequencies at levels of 6 and 1,000 Hz, and thereby their effects on the aspect ratio and morphology of the weld metal. The key outcomes of this work are that the frequency of arc pulsation has a strong effect on the breaking of the dendritic arms during the welding process. The obtained microstructure results reveal that the structure of the high pulse frequency current welded specimens are thus generally finer grained, with higher levels of residual ferrite and an absence of columnar grains; such pulse frequencies thus strongly influence the tensile strength and microhardness of affected weldments as compared to those seen in continuous current welded specimens. Additionally, the most important factor affecting the bead geometry and aspect ratio is identified as the pulse frequency, with a contribution of 64%. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Aspect ratio; Geometry; Inert gas welding; Inert gases; Mechanical properties; Tensile strength; Welded steel structures; Welds; Metallurgical characteristics; Micro-structural characteristics; Pulse frequencies; Research papers; Tungsten inert gas welding; Weld bead geometry; Welded components; Welding process; Austenitic stainless steelBenyounis, K.Y., Olabi, A.G., Optimization of different welding processes using statistical and numerical approaches (2008) A Reference Guide Advances in Engineering Software, 39 (6), pp. 483-496; Satheesh Kumar, K.V., Gejendhiran, S., Prasath, M., Comparative investigation of mechanical properties in GMAW/GTAW for various gas compositions (2014) Mater.

This study investigates the occurrence, serotypes distribution, antimicrobial resistance, and multilocus sequence types (ST) of Salmonella isolated from 400 imported frozen chicken carcasses sold in the markets of Thi-Qar, south-eastern Iraq. Salmonella was detected in 46 out of 400 tested samples [11.5% (95% confidence interval: 8.5%–15.0%)]. S. Typhimurium was the most abundant (30.4%) among 14 different serotypes recovered from the tested frozen carcasses. Antimicrobial resistance was most frequently detected against tetracycline (84.4%), nalidixic acid (80.4%), streptomycin (69.6%) and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole (65.2%). Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) analysis revealed that 18 isolates harbored four β-lactamase resistance genes, with blaCARB-2 was the most commonly (14/18) detected. It was possible to identify 8 multilocus sequence types from the WGS analysis of 40 out of the 46 Salmonella isolates; with ST-11 (among S. Enteritidis) and ST-19 (among S. Typhimurium) were the most frequently detected. These results add to our understanding of the global epidemiology of Salmonella. Our work stands as one of the first reports on WGS analysis of Salmonella from retail chicken in a Middle-Eastern country. Results from this study could be valuable for guiding an informed import risk analysis aiming at reducing the exposure risk from Salmonella through imported chicken carcasses into Iraq. This work demonstrates the value of WGS as a promising tool for supporting evidence-based food safety hazard characterization. © 2018 Elsevier B.V.Antimicrobial resistance; Chicken; Iraq; Salmonella; Whole-genome sequencingamoxicillin plus clavulanic acid; ampicillin; azithromycin; bacterial enzyme; beta lactamase; beta lactamase CARB 2; cefotaxime; ceftriaxone; chloramphenicol; ciprofloxacin; cotrimoxazole; gentamicin; nalidixic acid; streptomycin; tetracycline; unclassified drug; antiinfective agent; beta lactamase; nalidixic acid; streptomycin; sulfamethizole; tetracycline; trimethoprim; trimethoprim sulfamethizole; antibiotic resistance; Article; bacterium detection; bacterium isolate; carcass; chicken; genotype; Iraq; market; multidrug resistance; multilocus sequence typing; nonhuman; phenotype; population abundance; Salmonella; Salmonella enterica serovar Anatum; Salmonella enterica serovar Branderup; Salmonella enterica serovar Dublin; Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis; Salmonella enterica serovar Hadar; Salmonella enterica serovar Infantis; Salmonella enterica serovar Kentucky; Salmonella enterica serovar Livingstone; Salmonella enterica serovar Muenchen; Salmonella enterica serovar Newport; Salmonella enterica serovar Senftenberg; Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium; Salmonella enterica serovar Virchow; serotype; whole genome sequencing; animal; beta-lactam resistance; chicken; drug combination; drug effect; genetics; human; isolation and purification; meat; microbial sensitivity test; microbiology; Salmonella food poisoning; transmission; whole genome sequencing; Animals; Anti-Bacterial Agents; beta-Lactam Resistance; beta-Lactamases; Chickens; Drug Combinations; Drug Resistance, Multiple, Bacterial; Humans; Iraq; Meat; Microbial Sensitivity Tests; Multilocus Sequence Typing; Nalidixic Acid; Salmonella enteritidis; Salmonella Food Poisoning; Salmonella typhimurium; Serogroup; Streptomycin; Sulfamethizole; Tetracycline; Trimethoprim; Whole Genome Sequencingamoxicillin plus clavulanic acid, 74469-00-4, 79198-29-1; ampicillin, 69-52-3, 69-53-4, 7177-48-2, 74083-13-9, 94586-58-0; azithromycin, 83905-01-5, 117772-70-0, 121470-24-4; beta lactamase, 9073-60-3; cefotaxime, 63527-52-6, 64485-93-4; ceftriaxone, 73384-59-5, 74578-69-1; chloramphenicol, 134-90-7, 2787-09-9, 56-75-7; ciprofloxacin, 85721-33-1; cotrimoxazole, 8064-90-2; gentamicin, 1392-48-9, 1403-66-3, 1405-41-0; nalidixic acid, 389-08-2; streptomycin, 57-92-1; tetracycline, 23843-90-5, 60-54-8, 64-75-5, 8021-86-1; sulfamethizole, 144-82-1; trimethoprim, 738-70-5; Anti-Bacterial Agents; beta-Lactamases; Drug Combinations; Nalidixic Acid; Streptomycin; Sulfamethizole; Tetracycline; Trimethoprim; trimethoprim sulfamethizoleMurdoch UniversityThis study was supported by a PhD scholarship from the Iraqi government and Murdoch University (Perth, Western Australia).

The SMD technique is made by depositing a main wire plus cold feed wire melted by arc welding heat. In this paper, the experimental setup consists of MIG-welding plus cold wire feed and 3-axis machine to be able to apply the deposition process paths. The current work focused on investigating the effect of deposition parameters on the wall bead geometry and deposited wall hardness of the deposited specimens. The controlled input parameters in this work were melting current, traveling speed, and wire feed ratio as a new parameter. The results were analyzed by statistical technique, i.e. Analysis of variance and signal/noise ratio. Confirmatory test had been carried out to achieve the validity of results. The results showed that the wire ratio contributes 49.42% towards the overall variation noticed within removed layer thickness. The traveling speed contributes 34.15% of the overall variation noticed within removed layer thickness. Wire feed ratio contributes 59.22% towards the overall variation noticed within hardness. The traveling speed contributes 38.31% of the overall variation noticed within hardness. The optimal value of hardness is 283.521, whereas total removed layer is 0.5791. From the results, it is clear that the wire feed ratio greatly affects the deposited parts quality, and hence this parameter is considered as a new addition to the shaped metal deposition technique using the 3D-SMD plus a cold wire feed. © 2018 IAEME Publication.

The high incidence of ectopic pregnancies can to some extent be related to the fact that the early diagnosis of pregnancy can be made with the use of β-hCG and ultrasound scans to identify the location of an early pregnancy. Objectives: current study was conducted to (1) assess tubal patency by using hysterosalpingography following surgical and medical treatments of tubal pregnancy, and 92) to assess pregnancy rates following surgery and medical treatment of patients with ectopic pregnancy. Methods: an interventional controoled clinical study involved 300 women diagnosed with ectopic pregnancy at Bint-Alhuda Teaching Hospital in Thi-Qar Governorate, Iraq. They were divided into two groups according to the patients’ preference; the first group treated with methotrexate while the second group treated surgically. Hysterosalpingography was done to all patients in both groups after three months of treatment, and both groups were followed up for one year waiting for pregnancy. Results: Tubal patency and spontaneous pregnancy rate is higher in the medically-treated group of patients. The contralateral tubal blockage was 11.5% in surgical-treated group, while 5.85% in medical-treated group. The spontaneous pregnancy rate was higher in medical-treated group (81.81%), while (58.66%) in the surgical-treated group. Conclusions: Better fertility potential and hysterosalpingography findings have been found after the medical treatment for patients with tubal ectopic pregnancy than those who are treated surgically. © 2018, Indian Journal of Public Health Research and Development.

The study concerns the compressive and flexural strength of concrete with polypropylene fiber (PF). The experimental phase of the research has included testing fifteen groups of concrete with different characteristics. The main variables considered in the experimental program are the percentage of polypropylene fiber, type of concrete mix and presence of steel reinforcement in a prism. The effect of these variables on the compressive and flexure strength of concrete was investigated. The results of this study indicated that the variation in the compressive and flexure strength of concrete depends mainly on the polypropylene fiber percentage. It was found that the compressive strength of concrete increases by increasing the percentage of polypropylene fiber from 0 to 0.2%, while the increasing in the strength started to vanish when approached to 0.3% of PF. Similarly, the flexural strength of concrete has also increased by increasing the percentage of PF from 0 to 0.3%. By further increasing PF up to 0.5%, it was determined that the compressive and flexural strength of concrete started to decrease significantly as compared to the control mix. ©IAEME PublicationCompressive Strength; Concrete; Flexural Strength; Polypropylene FiberDaniel, J., State-of-the-art report on fiber reinforced concrete reported by ACI committee 544 (2002) ACI J, p. 96; Farediwala, M.A.M.P., Improving the mechanical properties of conventional concrete by using fiber (2015) International Journal of Advanced Engineering Research and Studies; Zhang, P., Li, Q.-F., Effect of polypropylene fiber on durability of concrete composite containing fly ash and silica fume (2013) Composites Part B: Engineering, 45 (1), pp. 1587-1594; Patel, M.J., Kulkarni, S., Effect of polypropylene fiber on the high strength concrete (2012) Journal of Information, Knowledge and Research in Civil Engineering, 2 (2), p. 127; Murahari, K., Rao, R., Effects of polypropylene fibres on the strength properties of fly ash based concrete (2013) International Journal of Engineering Science Invention, 2 (5), pp. 13-19; Kakooei, S., The effects of polypropylene fibers on the properties of reinforced concrete structures (2012) Construction and Building Materials, 27 (1), pp. 73-77; Altun, F., Haktanir, T., Ari, K., Effects of steel fiber addition on mechanical properties of concrete and RC beams (2007) Construction and Building Materials, 21 (3), pp. 654-661; Ahmed, S., A study on properties of polypropylene fiber reinforced concrete (2006) 31st Conference on Our World in Concrete & Structures, , Singapore; Nagarkar, P.K., Tambe, S.K., Pazare, D.G., Study of fiber reinforced concrete (1987) Proceeding of International Symposium of Fiber Reinforced Concrete, , Madras, India; Nakagawa, P.K., Akihama, S., Suenaga, T., Mechanical properties of various types of fibers reinforced concretes (1989) Symposium of Fiber Reinforced Cement and Concretes: Recent Developments, , UK: University of Wales, College of Cardiff; Toutanji, H., Bayasi, Z., Effects of manufacturing techniques on the flexural behavior of steel fiber-reinforced concrete (1998) Cement and Concrete Research, 28 (1), pp. 115-124; (2015) Standard Specification for Portland Cement, , ASTM C150M-15, A.C, ASTM International, West Conshohocken, PA; (2018) Standard Specification for Concrete Aggregates, , C33M-18, A.C.

Methods: Serum glucose, total cholesterol, triglycerides, high density lipoprotein, very low density lipoprotein and low density lipoprotein, malondialdehyde (MDA), ceruloplasmin, uric acid, sodium, potassium and chloride levels were determined in 75 patients with type II diabetes mellitus and 25 healthy subjects. Results: The levels of serum glucose, total cholesterol, triglycerides, very low density lipoprotein, low density lipoprotein, malondialdehyde, ceruloplasmin, sodium, potassium and chloride showed significant increase in ype II diabetes mellitus patients as compared to control group whereas the levels of high density lipoprotein and uric acid showed a significant decrease in type II diabetes mellitus patients in comparison to control subjects ( P ≤0.05 ). In addition, current study demonstrated the characteristic diabetic dyslipidaemia which is characterized by low HDL and high triglyceride. Increased levels of MDA may be a useful marker of oxidative stress. Increased oxidative stress may result in consumption of antioxidants including ceruloplasmin. Also, there is significant decrease in serum uric acid levels in type II diabetes mellitus patients. It may be concluded from this study that dysregulation of glucose homeostasis may lead to electrolytes imbalance due to increase in sodium and potassium chloride levels. © 2018, Pharmainfo Publications.

Methods: Allicin solution at different concentrations was tested on A549 lung cancer cell line. Viability and proliferation of A549 cells were determined. The cytotoxic effects of allicin solution on A549 lung cancer cells were quantitatively determined using Alamar blue assay. Cell proliferation and cell cycle were measured by DAPI-flow cytometry analysis in order to investigate the possible cell signalling pathway targeted by allicin. The level of expression of VEGF-A protein was determined with confocal laser scanning microscopy. Results: Allicin inhibited lung cancer proliferation and down-regulated the protein expression of VEGF, but had no significant cytotoxic effects on A549 cells. Flow cytometric results showed that allicin induced cell cycle arrest of A549 cells at the G1 phase. Conclusion: These results indicate that allicin exerts anti-proliferative effects on A549 lung cancer cells. Thus allicin, an active component of garlic, might be a promising therapy against lung cancer metastasis. © Pharmacotherapy Group, Faculty of Pharmacy, University of Benin, Benin City, 300001 Nigeria and 2018 The authors.A549 cells; Allicin; Garlic; Lung cancer; Qpcr taqman assay; Vegf-a protein expressionallicin; angiogenesis modulator; vasculotropin A; A-549 cell line; angiogenesis; antineoplastic activity; antiproliferative activity; Article; cancer inhibition; cancer therapy; cell cycle; cell proliferation; cell viability; confocal laser scanning microscopy; controlled study; cytotoxicity; dose response; down regulation; flow cytometry; G1 phase cell cycle checkpoint; gene overexpression; human; human cell; immunofluorescence; lung cancer; metastasis; protein expression; real time polymerase chain reaction; resazurin assay; signal transductionallicin, 539-86-6; vasculotropin A, 489395-96-2Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, MHESRLayla is grateful to Higher Education and Scientific Research/ Iraqi Government for the provision of a scholarship.Block, E., Garlic and Other Alliums (2010) The Lore and the Science, , RSC Publishing: Cambridge, UK; Kleijnen, J., Knipschild, P., Ter Riet, G., Garlic, onions and cardiovascular risk factors.

Rotational speed, welding speed and tool pin profiles (cylindrical, threaded and tapered) were taken as process parameters. An L15 orthogonal array with three levels and three factors was designed and executed for conducting the experiment. The analysis of variance (ANOVA) and signal to noise ratio analyses are employed to investigate the influence of different welding parameters on the (hardness, impact, tensile) and to obtain the optimum parameters. The results indicated that a maximum tensile of as pin profile threaded and rotational speed of 2050 rpm of all media cooling while welding speed 42mm/min in (air, water) but oil media is 90mm/min . Whereas, maximum hardness was achieved with pin profile threaded for (water and oil) cooling media but cylindrical for air media while rotational speed and welding speed of (2050 rpm and 42mm/min) respectively for (air, water) but (1460 rpm, 90mm/min) in oil media.

Many drugs nowadays have been reported to have a clinical efficacy against cutaneous leishmaniasis but only a few have been proven worthy. In this study, we aim to compare the efficacy and safety of Intralesional sodium stibogluconate (Pentostam® 100 mg/mL) and Intralesional metronidazole (flagyl® 5 mg/mL) solutions in the treatment of cutaneous leishmaniasis. METHODS: A clinical trial was done in Dermatology Consultancy Clinic of Al-Hussain Teaching Hospital, Nassiriah (Thi Qar Province Center), Iraq, during the period from June 2015 to June 2016 on a convenient sample of 100 patients with cutaneous leishmaniasis. Those patients were assigned randomly into two groups according to type of localized treatment (50 patients on Pentostam) and (50 patients on Metronidazole) and seen weekly for a maximum of 8 weeks. RESULTS: Patients treated with Pentostam were significantly associated with a higher complete response rate than patients treated with Metronidazole (P<0.001). Complications of treatment were significantly detected among patients treated with Pentostam (P<0.001). Pain at injection site was significantly perceived as severe among patients treated with Pentostam (P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Pentostam solution has a higher efficacy in the treatment of cutaneous leishmaniasis than Metronidazole solution but with higher rates of complications and pain at injection site.

While the presence of flavonoids, alkaloids, carbohydrate, glycosides, tannins, polyphenol. Afterwards, Hesperetin (flavanone) and hesperidins (flavanone glycoside) were extracted and isolated from dried oranges peels (citrus fruits) and characterized by FTIR spectra, TLC, melting point, Chemical test. In time antibacterial activity of Hesperetin and hesperidins studied against some pathogenic bacterial strains isolated from patients like Streptococcus, Acinetobacter, E.coli, Klebsiella, Staphylococcus, Aeromonas. Eventually, Hesperetin (flavanone) showed a Higher biological activity significant than hesperidins and cefuroxime drugs. © 2018 Pharmascope Publications.

Molluscum contagiosum is common in immunocompromised patients, sexually active adults and children. There are increases in the incidence of molluscum contagiosum among Iraqi patient needs further study. The study aims to provide the characteristics and the clinical features of MC on a series of patients in Al-Nassiria city. Evaluation of 120 patients was conducted in Al-Hussein teaching Hospital in Al-Nassiria, Iraq, Patients with MC were diagnosed clinically by two dermatologists in the dermatology department. Over the study period, data of these patients were collected and analysis was done as follows: patient age and gender, duration of the disease in months, site, and history of atopic dermatitis. 120 patients entered this study. That mean age of the patients at present study was 29.5 16.7 years range (1-70years). The patients between (1-10year) had the 1st peak of incidence of disease, patients 38 of 120 (31.7%), the child specifically between children aged 1–4 years are 31 of 38 patients. MC lesions were presented mainly at the right side of the face in 79 patients (80.6%) compared to the left side of the face in 19 (19.4%) the P value was also < 0. 001. We conclude that patient with This survey has demonstrated that Molluscum contagiosum is a common skin infection.

This prospective study was conducted at the Fertility centre in AL-Najaf Al-Ashraf city over a period of one year. The results of this study showed that the mean value and range of the age in the studied groups were (29.71±6.62) (18-45year) while the mean value for BMI was (27.70±4.05) Kg/m 2 , ranging between (19-35.7). The mean duration of infertility was (8.40±4.16), ranged between 2-18years. Quite a large percent, i.e. 86.7% of the subjects had a history of primary subfertility. Normal range values were documented for Basal Hormonal Levels. While peak E 2 was within normal values range, but E2 on CD2 showed higher significance as found in the (non PCO) group. It was found that both the follicular & blood serum AZA was reportedly higher among women with (Non-PCO) of infertility than their counterparts but without any significant difference. Also, the peak means value for follicular AZA in subjects reporting with non PCO group came around 10.29 IU/L, while that for ovulatory cause followed along. The results of present study conclude that the AZA levels (both follicular & blood serum) may be used as one important marker of fecundity in cases of IVF/ICSI procedural candidates to increase successful pregnancy rates and reduce cancellation cycles. Infertile women must be treated for the clinical condition before starting ICSI procedure for successful ICSI outcomes. Thus, even remotest immune activation is detected by blood serum & follicular AZA and treated thoroughly afterwards, may affect ICSI outcome positively. © 2018 Pharmascope Publications.

We demonstrate that the thermoelectric performance of graphene nanoconstrictions can be significantly enhanced by the presence of stable radical adsorbates, because radical molecules adsorbed on the graphene nanoconstrictions create singly-occupied orbitals in the vicinity of Fermi energy. This in turn leads to sharp features in their transmission functions close to Fermi energy, which increases the electrical conductance and Seebeck coefficient of the nanoconstrictions. This is a generic feature of radical adsorbates and can be employed in the design of new thermoelectric devices and materials. © 2018 The Royal Society of Chemistry.Fermi level; Graphene; Seebeck coefficient; Thermoelectricity; Electrical conductance; Generic features; Nanoconstrictions; Singly occupied orbitals; Target technology; Thermoelectric devices; Thermoelectric performance; Transmission function; AdsorbatesEngineering and Physical Sciences Research Council, EPSRC: EP N017188/1, EP/M014452/1; Leverhulme Trust; Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, MHESRH.S. acknowledges the Leverhulme Trust for Leverhulme Early Career Fellowship no.

Normally, molecular wires become less conductive with increasing length. Here, we report a series of fused porphyrin oligomers for which the conductance increases substantially with length by >10-fold at a bias of 0.7 V. This exceptional behavior can be attributed to the rapid decrease of the HOMO-LUMO gap with the length of fused porphyrins. In contrast, for butadiyne-linked porphyrin oligomers with moderate inter-ring coupling, a normal conductance decrease with length is found for all bias voltages explored (±1 V), although the attenuation factor (β) decreases from ca. 2 nm-1 at low bias to <1 nm-1 at 0.9 V, highlighting that β is not an intrinsic molecular property. Further theoretical analysis using density functional theory underlines the role of intersite coupling and indicates that this large increase in conductance with length at increasing voltages can be generalized to other molecular oligomers.

It was initially a virtual community on a narrow and limited, and then gradually increased from a written textual tool an audio-visual media tool that influences the decisions and responses of those affected by pressure from the influential force that influences the personal patterns of the individual (audio, visual, sensory). Objectives: To identify the development of social responsibility among Kut Technical Institute students. And to determine the association between the impact of social media network sites and student's their development of social responsibility. Methodology: A descriptive study was conducted on (400) student's at Kut Technical Institute in Wasit Governorate. By a non-probability sampling approach and self-administrative questionnaire, data are collected from those who studded in all department of Kut Technical Institute. The questionnaire composed of three section, it includes: demographic data, social media, and social responsibility development. Data are analyzed through the used descriptive an inferential approach. Results:The indicate that(95.3%) of participants are interested with social mediaand (52%) of them are Face-book interaction and consuming a three hours daily on their mobile. Fifty-eight percentage of students their social responsibility are impact with social media. In addition, the social media have been a high significant associations with students their development of social responsibility at p-value (<0.0.5). Conclusions: Most of the participants are interested with the social media and mostly used mobile device. Its consuming three hours time daily and in browsing face-book. It is also, students have been moderately social responsibly. In addition, social media have been affects students development their social responsibly. Recommendations: Decision makers need to be raise awareness among young people about the role of social networking sites and their impact on the development of their personalities and guide them to the optimal use of social networking sites. And it is also, need to hold training courses and circulated in schools for young people aimed at developing their skills in the recruitment of social networking sites in the service of their issues and the most important aspect is the use of those sites for study purposes. © RJPT All right reserved.Impact; Social media; Social responsibilityadult; article; awareness; demography; female; human; human experiment; Iraq; major clinical study; male; personality; questionnaire; skill; social media; social network; social responsibility; trainingAwadhi, H., The Impact of Social Networking Sites in the Development of Social Responsibility among Young People.

One Hundred and twenty samples of white soft cheese collected from different areas in Thi-Qargovernorate.The objective of this study was to isolate Staphylococcus aureus,Escherichia coli, Salmonella spp from samples of soft white cheeses obtained from different areas in Thi-Qar governorate, and to determine their antibiotic susceptibility patterns.A total of 120 soft white cheeses samples were collected and screened for the presence of S. aureus Escherichia coli, Salmonella spp. Gram staining, oxidase, catalase, haemolysis and coagulase tests were employed for bacterial identification.All the samples were contaminated with S. aureus,Escherichia coli, Salmonella spp. A total of 30,28,30 S. aureus,Escherichia coli, Salmonella spp isolates were obtained during this study. The levels of contamination with S. aureus were higher in soft white cheese obtained at Thi-Qar area farms (25%, 23.33% and 18.33) respectively. A large percentage of the S. aureus isolates (25.6% and 23.0%) were from Nasiriyah and Batha. All strains were resistant to (10 g), Ampicillin (AP) (10 g), Amoxicillin-Clavulanic acid (AC) (30 g),amikacin (30 g), Erythromycin (E) (15 g), tetracycline (30 grespectively.From the results of this study, it could conclude that the lack ofstandardized method for production and keeping of soft white cheese inThi-Qargovernorate had resulted in the significant variations noticed in the differentquality characteristics of the cheese samples. The high microbial contentof the soft white cheese samples reflects the poor general hygieneconditions during production and storage of milk and cheese, lack ofrefrigeration and absence of steps such as heat treatment to eliminatemicroorganisms. The most alarming trend detected in thisstudy was the determination of antibiotic resistant Staphylococcus aureus,Salmonellaspp.and E. coli. © 2018, Advanced Scientific Research.

This study is one aspect of a comprehensive work on the biological and ecological topics on Asian jeery (Silurustriostegus) for the period extending for one year from February 2013 to January 2014. Results showed fluctuation in values of the studied properties throughout the year. It reveals that air temperature ranged between 16-43 ºC and water temperature from 13-36ºC. Light transparency exhibited significant increase throughout the year, but peak was in winter. Values were between 80 to 128 cm in the spring and winter respectively. Turbidity showed marked variations, with the lowest value (NTU 8) recorded in the summer and the highest (NTU 24) in fall. Salinity revealed, a relatively slight rise up from the normal and the highest encountered in winter and autumn (2.6 ppt.). Dissolved oxygen concentrations were relatively high synchronized with decline in temperature in the spring and winter, when the highest values (9.6 ppm) were recorded. Biological oxygen demand (BOD) was higher in summer (1.94 ppm) compared to other periods of the year. pH was generally in the alkaline direction and values were within the appropriate range of natural inland waters. Almost similar values of active nitrate were detected in various seasons and the highest (2.3 µg/L) was encountered in the winter, whereas the lowest (1.3 µg / L) in spring. © 2018 Plant Archives.

Three different sources for microwave absorbers were used to identify the effect of microwave absorber on the product yield from microwave pyrolysis of oily sludge. These absorbers are namely, coconut activated carbon (CAC), palm kernel shell activated carbon (PKSAC) and petroleum coke. The microwave absorbers were added to elevate the temperature of pyrolysis reaction in a nitrogen atmosphere using a modified microwave household reactor. The process included identifying the effect of microwave absorber concentration, and initial moisture content at an optimum sweep gas flow rate on the product yield. The results demonstrated that the addition of CAC, PKSAC and petroleum coke improved the heating rate by shortening the drying process. The results showed that the addition CAC during microwave pyrolysis of oily sludge resulted in the higher gas product distribution compared to other types of absorbers. The results revealed that the addition of 10% of the CAC can pyrolyze oily sludge at a nitrogen gas flow rate of 200 mL/min. At this condition, ~65 wt% of gas was produced for all moisture content of oily sludge samples (4%, 40% and 75%). As well as, this treatment method shortened drying time of oily sludge to 30 minutes. The results showed that higher produced gases of H2 (15%) and CO (13.3%) giving lower heating value (LHV) at 5.57 MJ/m3 were achieved using 10% of CAC in microwave pyrolysis of oily. © School of Engineering, Taylor’s University.Microwave; Microwave absorber; Oily sludge; PyrolysisUniversiti Putra Malaysia, UPM: 05-04-08-0553RUThis research was supported by UPM-RUG research grant (05-04-08-0553RU) from Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM).

Objective: To shed light on the main sexually acquired viral infections in women in Nasiriya city. Method: A cross sectional study was done in the period from April 2016 till April 2017, females of all ages attending the outpatient dermatology department in Al Hussain teaching hospital in Nasiriya; south of Iraq; having dermatoses in the genital area that were diagnosed to be viral infections were included in the study. Results: A total of 260 female patients from all ages were seen & examined during the study period, the highest number (131) was among patients with molluscum contagiosum; among whom there were 28 baby girls with uncertain sexual mode of transmission, followed by genital warts (108) & the least were patients with herpes simplex (21). Conclusion: viral STI’s in women are important yet neglected diseases as most patients feel shy & postpone medical consultation, leading to delayed diagnosis & in many instances grave consequences. © 2018, Indian Journal of Public Health Research and Development.

Advanced kidney disease and renal replacement therapy lead to several metabolic and nutritional derangements, which can be termed as protein-energy wasting of chronic kidney disease. Despite the importance of nutrition in hemodialysis patients, studies have shown insufficient awareness about proper nutrition in these patients. Studies also found positive clinical results and knowledge of nutrition education in hemodialysis patients. A quasi experimental study design is carried out at AL-Hussein Teaching Hospital in AL-Nasiriyah City, from 4th December, 2017 to 9th of July, 2018. A non-probability (Purposive sample) of (80) patients on maintenance hemodialysis patients divided into two group: (40) patients as control group and (40) patients as study group. The data were collected through the use of questionnaire designed by researcher, which consists of three parts (1) sociodemographic data form (2) medical sheet information, and (3) main domains of an education program, by direct interview technique with the patients. Reliability of the questionnaire is determined through a pilot study and the validity through a panel of experts.

Using DFT method, which employed in the Quantum espresso package, to calculate the electronic band structure, band gap, density of states (DOS), total, kinetic, and electrostatic energies. In the pristine case, there are large electronic band gaps, which make all SWBNNTs have insulator behaviors. Also, total, kinetic energies are reduced with increasing the diameter of the tube, but the opposite behavior with the electrostatic energy. By substituting one B atom with single Li impurity, the electronic band gap is reduced. This impurity also changed the shape and reduced the value of the DOS, which confirmed all the obtained results in this report. Similarly, the values of all the above energies are decreased, which make the structure unstable and more reactive. The significant result in this work is that addition of only one lithium atom in the unit cell of SWBNNTs can take the Fermi level down so significantly and result in insulating to semiconducting phase transition. When we replaced one N atom with one Li impurity, all these energies are dependent on the diameter, so the values of energies are reduced with this impurity. The behaviors of these SWBNNTs are altered to P-type. This impurity is converted these SWBNNTs from an insulator to a semimetal state with zero electronic band gap and changing the shape and value of the DOS, which is very important in various applications. © 2018 Elsevier B.V.BNNTs; DFT; DOS; Electronic band gap; Total energyAtoms; Boron nitride; Density functional theory; DOS; Electronic properties; Electrostatics; III-V semiconductors; Kinetic energy; Lithium; Lithium alloys; Nanotubes; Nitrides; Quantum theory; Yarn; BNNTs; Boron nitride nanotubes; Electronic band gaps; Electronic band structure; Electrostatic energies; First-principle density-functional theories; Structural and electronic properties; Total energy; Energy gapRubio, A., Corkill, J.L., Cohen, M.L., Theory of graphitic boron nitride nanotubes (1994) Phys.

We used the DFT method, which implemented in the Quantum espresso package, to calculate the electronic band structure, band gap, density of states (DOS), total energy, and chemical potential. In the pristine case, the BL structure of both WS2 (Tungsten disulfide) and MoS2 (Molybdenum disulfide) showed indirect electronic bandgap of 1.37 eV and 1.26 eV, respectively. A semimetal behavior with a zero-band gap was detected with (B, C, and N)-doped MoS2 and (B and N)-doped WS2 while a direct band gap of ∼0.1eV was revealed in the case of C-doped WS2. The electronic DOS for the BL WS2 and MoS2 were also calculated in the present of B, C, and N impurities. These impurities changed the shape and reduced the value of the DOS, which confirmed all the obtained results in this report. The aforementioned outcomes show the possibility of manipulating the structural properties of the MS2 materials for countless applications related to photo-and gas-sensing devices as well as energy storage related applications. © 2018 Elsevier LtdBoron; Carbon; Density functional theory; Electronic properties; Energy gap; Layered semiconductors; Nitrogen; Quantum theory; Sulfur compounds; Tungsten compounds; Electronic band gaps; Electronic band structure; First-principle density-functional theories; Gas sensing devices; Molybdenum disulfide; Nitrogen impurity; Structural and electronic properties; Tungsten disulfide; Molybdenum compoundsAl-Asadi, A.S., Henley, L.A., Ghosh, S., Quetz, A., Dubenko, I., Pradhan, N., Fabrication and characterization of ultraviolet photosensors from ZnO nanowires prepared using chemical bath deposition method (2016) J.

It has high incidence all over the world. It has many complications such as peripheral neuropathy, cardiac and renal problems and retinopathy, but the diabetic retinopathy considers one of the major problems, which causes retinal damage and leading blindness. Unless we avoid the danger of rapid diagnosis and accurate continuity to monitor any developments that may occur. In addition, distinguish them from other diseases that may affect the eye and which occur for other reasons. Therefore, it is necessary for ophthalmologists to accurately diagnose this disease in order to avoid any error may occur. In this paper, we suggest an algorithm for retinopathy diseases diagnosis to help doctors diagnose diabetes mellitus and distinguish between the health's conditions from the infected condition. The algorithm based on two stages; the first Stage, depends on converting the image to grayscale and improving the contrast of the image using the Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization (CLAHE). Then analysis the image by using the Grey Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) to extraction the image features. The second stage extracting the qualities from the color image by converting (RGB) color space in to (HSV) color space and using color moment algorithm and extract the feature based on color. The features extracted from Qualities gave strong results. The features will be to Neural Network, which enables us to diagnose the cases of, normal and abnormal with high accuracy; our algorithm accuracy is 97%.

It is however very challenging since the road is in an outdoor scenario imaged from a moving platform. in this paper, we suggest and implement an effective algorithm of real-time line detection and following lane signals to detect the left and right lane boundaries of the line. The proposed algorithm consist of two phases, In the first phases the road is isolation from the image, so, the proposed algorithm in this phase will detect the edges and marks on the road using image processing techniques, also, apply this phase in image taken or video in real time. The second phase in this research, is for how to follow the lines that represent the road signs for a way to take the angles of the neighborhood of each pixel on the line, to be able to know the road is straight or rotate. Lane detection algorithm which is simple, robust, and efficient. Thus, suitable for real-time processing. The main objective of this paper is to implement an effective lane detection and following system, the approach presented here was tested on image and video sequences downloaded from https://www.shutterstock.com/search.

There are two types of Breast Cancer; Benign breast cancer and Malignant breast cancer. benign state is poor growing, rarely distributed to other areas of body and also have well-defined edges. Alternatively, Malignant point out has inclination to expand faster which is life intimidating. So, classification of the two state is essential for proper medical diagnosis of a breasts cancer patient. In this paper we suggest a new algorithm to diagnosis the Benign and Malignant cancer where each one (Benign and Malignant) has two types; Begin has two types of tumor adenosis and phyllodes_tumor,while Malignant has two types also ductal_carcinoma and papillary_carcinoma. In this paper we proposed algorithm for diagnosis the Breast cancer where our algorithm has two parts where the first part contain from four steps; the first step is pre-processing step, the second step is for image analysis which used wavelet transform to analysis the images and the third step to extract benefit features which used the results from the wavelet transform to obtain most important numbers of features by using standard division and the fourth step is to know wither the image is Benign or Malignant by using Fuzzy logic to know the two types (Benign or Malignant). The second part is contain the classified image (Benign or Malignant from first part) this part is for classify the other types of Benign (tumor adenosis and phyllodes_tumor) and Malignant (ductal_carcinoma and papillary_carcinoma), in this part we analysis the images by using GLCM after calculate watershed for the image to know the types of benign. For the Malignant we calculate the colour moment (HSV) then calculate standard deviation and mean to extract the features of each types of cancer, where these features will be as input for fuzzy logic to give the final decision for two types of Begin (adenosis and phyllodes_tumor) and two types of Malignant (ductal_carcinoma and papillary_carcinoma), the results accuracy from our algorithm are 98 %. By using the data base from http://web.inf.ufpr.br/vr/breast-cancer-database, which contain more than 7000 images.The suggested knowledge-based system can be utilized as a professional medical decision support system to aid doctors in the healthcare practice. © 2005 – ongoing JATIT & LLS.Adenosis; Benign; Breast cancer; Ductal_Carcinoma; Malignant; Papillary; PhyllodesParkin, D.M., Bray, F., Ferlay, J., Pisani, P., Estimating the world cancer burden: Globocan 2000 (2001) International Journal of Cancer, 94, pp. 153-156; Oussama, M., Kh, M.A., (2006) Guidelines for the Early Detection and Screening of Breast Cancer, pp. 24-26. , World Health Organization; Johra, F.-T., Shuvo, M.M.H., Detection of breast cancer from histopathology image and classifying benign and malignant state using fuzzy logic (2016) Electrical Engineering and Information Communication Technology (ICEEICT), 2016 3Rd International Conference On, pp. 1-5; Spanhol, F.A., Oliveira, L.S., Petitjean, C., Heutte, L., A dataset for breast cancer histopathological image classification (2016) IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, 63, pp. 1455-1462; Veta, M., Pluim, J.P., Van Diest, P.J., Viergever, M.A., Breast cancer histopathology image analysis: A review (2014) IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, 61, pp. 1400-1411; Al-Ayyoub, M., Alzu'bi, S.M., Jararweh, Y., Alsmirat, M.A., A GPU-based breast cancer detection system using Single Pass Fuzzy C-Means clustering algorithm (2016) Multimedia Computing and Systems (ICMCS), 2016 5Th International Conference On, pp. 650-654; Ahadi, F.S., Desai, M.R., Lei, C., Li, Y., Jia, R., Feature-Based classification and diagnosis of breast cancer using fuzzy inference system (2017) Information and Automation (ICIA), 2017 IEEE International Conference On, pp. 517-522; Xinyu, X., Guoxin, W., Chunmei, Z., Qiaoman, G., Chunyan, D., Image enhancement algorithm of Dongba manuscripts based on wavelet analysis and grey relational theory (2017) Electronic Measurement & Instruments (ICEMI), 2017 13Th IEEE International Conference On, pp. 340-345; Thakur, R.K., Saravanan, C., Classification of color hazy images (2016) In Electrical, Electronics, and Optimization Techniques (ICEEOT), International Conference On, pp. 2159-2163; Chaves-González, J.M., Vega-Rodríguez, M.A., Gómez-Pulido, J.A., Sánchez-Pérez, J.M., Detecting skin in face recognition systems: A colour spaces study (2010) Digital Signal Processing, 20, pp. 806-823; Alabed, M., (2007) A Novel Approach in the Detection of Obstructive Sleep Apnea from Electrocardiogram Signals Using Neural Network Classification of Textural Features Extracted from Time-Frequency Plots; Alasadi, A.H.H., Al-Safy, B.M.R., (2016) Early Detection and Classification of Melanoma Skin Cancer, , LAP LAMBERT Academic Publishing; Gao, J., Dai, J., Zhang, P., Region-based Moving Shadow Detection Using Watershed Algorithm (2016) Computer, Consumer and Control (IS3C), 2016 International Symposium On, pp. 846-849; Nilashi, M., Ibrahim, O., Ahmadi, H., Shahmoradi, L., A knowledge-based system for breast cancer classification using fuzzy logic method (2017) Telematics and Informatics, 34, pp. 133-144Little Lion Scientific19928645EnglishJ.

The blocks of data are transformed into encrypted data blocks of identical size using a shared session key. A common feature of some modes of block cipher, such as Cipher Block Chaining mode (CBC), Cipher Feedback mode (CFB), Output Feedback mode (OFB), is the sequential processing. The ciphering process of a block cannot begin until the processing of the preceding block is completed. This feature does not make full use of the processing power in multiple processor systems. In this paper, we proposed a Parallel Block Cipher (PBC) mode, in which blocks of cipher can be processed in parallel. Results of speed performance tests of the PBC mode using various settings are presented and compared with the standard CBC mode. The PBC mode was shown to save 60% of execution time when compared with the CBC mode. Furthermore, the hash value of the data file might be utilized to provide integrity check in addition to encryption using AES128. As a result, the PBC mode has a better speed performance on top of the confidentiality and security provided by the CBC mode. © 2018 IEEE.block cipher; cryptography; data encryption; mode of operation; parallel processingSecurity of data; Block cipher modes; Block ciphers; Cipher block chaining mode (CBC); Data encryption; Mode of operations; Parallel processing; Sequential processing; Speed performance; CryptographyStallings, W., Nist block cipher modes of operation for confidentiality (2010) Cryptologia, 34, pp. 163-175; Dworkin, M., Recommendation for block cipher modes of operation. methods and techniques (2001) NIST DTIC Document; Ehrsam, W.F., Meyer, C.H., Smith, J.L., Tuchman, W.L., (1978) Message Verification and Transmission Error Detection by Block Chaining, , ed: Google Patents; Dworkin, M.J., (2010) Recommendation for Block Cipher Modes of Operation: The XTS-AES Mode for Confidentiality on Storage Devices, , NIST Special Publication; Lipmaa, H., Rogaway, P., Wagner, D., Ctr-mode encryption (2000) First NIST Workshop on Modes of Operation; (2008) The XTS-AES Tweakable Block Cipher.

The κ - μ shadowed and Fisher-Snedecor F fading channels which are proposed as a simple and high accurate distributions in comparison with generalized-K (KG) and Nakagami-m shadowed conditions are used in this analysis. For the κ - μ shadowed, a novel simple exact closed-form analytic expression for the probability density function (PDF) and the cumulative distribution function (CDF) are introduced by assuming the fading parameters are integer numbers. To this end, the detection performance metrics, namely, the average detection probability and the average area under the receiver operating characteristics curve (AUC) which are used in the analysis of energy detection and the effective rate and the effective rate are derived. To validate the results of this work, comparisons between the simulated and numerical results as well as with various conventional channel models and scenarios are given. © 2018 IEEE.cognitive radio user; effective rate; energy detection (ED); fisher-Snedecor F; κ - μ shadowedCognitive systems; Distribution functions; Fading (radio); Fading channels; Probability density function; Probability distributions; Radio systems; Analytic expressions; Cumulative distribution function; Detection performance; Detection probabilities; Effective rates; Energy detection; Probability density function (pdf); Receiver operating characteristics; Cognitive radioSimon, M.K., Alouini, M.-S., (2005) Digital Communication over Fading Channels, , 2nd ed.

Grenoble-Alpes, CNRS, Département de Chimie Moléculaire, Grenoble, 38400, FranceWe report the study of stimuli-responsive ZnII and FeII coordination polymers (MC34+ or MC24+ with M=Fe2+ or Zn2+). These soluble metallopolymers were formed spontaneously by reaction of an organic ligand (C34+ or C24+) with one molar equivalent of metal ions. The C34+ and C24+ ligands incorporate two chelating terpyridine groups bridged by a redox responsive hinge featuring two viologen units (viologen=N,N′-dialkyl-4,4′-bipyridinium) linked either with propyl (C34+) or ethyl (C24+) chains. The viologen units in the polymer chains were reduced (1 e− per viologen group) either by bulk electrolysis or by visible-light irradiation carried out in the presence of a photosensitizer. The 1 e− reduction of the viologen units in the MC24+ polymers induced a slight decrease in the viscosity of the solutions due to a modification of the overall charge carried by the metallopolymers. In strong contrast, reduction of coordination polymers involving propyl linkers (MC34+) led to a remarkable increase (≈+400 %) in observed viscosity. This reversible effect was attributed to a folding of the polymer chains triggered by π-dimerization of the photo-generated viologen cation radicals. © 2018 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Which included the expense of the number of patients infected with the disease in thoracic diseases center in the province and the manner of dealing with and the effectiveness of the three-year therapy (2013,2014,2015). It was reached a situation improved between the years where we note a decrease in the number of casualties, which numbered 255 patients in 2013 and 174 patients in 2014 Om 167 patients in 2015. Maybe it was due to the patient’s commitment to DOTS adopted by the Iraqi Ministry of Health and the World Health Organization system. Or increasing the health awareness of the community and its attention to personal hygiene. © 2018 Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology.

This method provides accurate approximations for the velocity and the pressure variables. General polygonal or polyhedral partitions can be applied in this method. The finite element space which is made up of piecewise polynomials is easy to be constructed. These advantages make the weak Galerkin finite element method efficient and highly flexible. Optimal rates of convergence for the velocity function u and the pressure function p are established in corresponding norms. In addition, the convergence rates are independent of the viscosity parameter ϵ. Several numerical experiments are provided to illustrate the robustness, flexibility and validity of the weak Galerkin finite element method. © 2018 Elsevier Inc.Darcy–Stokes equation; Discrete weak divergence; Discrete weak gradient; Weak Galerkin finite element methodGalerkin methods; Navier Stokes equations; Numerical methods; Discrete weak divergence; Finite element space; Galerkin finite element methods; Numerical experiments; Piecewise polynomials; Pressure variables; Stokes equations; Viscosity parameters; Finite element methodNational Natural Science Foundation of China, NSFC: 11726102, 91630201, U1530116, 11471141The research of the authors was supported in part by China Natural National Science Foundation (91630201, U1530116, 11471141, 11726102).Arnold, D.N., Brezzi, F., Fortin, M., Astable finite element method for the stokes equations (1984) Calcolo, 21, pp. 337-344; Brezzi, F., Douglas, J., Marini, L.D., Two families of mixed finite elements for second order elliptic problems (1985) Numer.

The surface characterization of PPAC was achieved using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), N2 adsorption/ desorption, X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), and the point of zero charge (pHPZC) method. It was found that PPAC a large surface area and total pore volume corresponded to 1280.45 m²/g and 1.343 cm3/g, respectively. The adsorption properties of PPAC with methylene blue (MB) was conducted at different adsorbent dose (0.23 g/L), solution pH (311), initial dye concentrations (50 mg/L400 mg/L), contact time (0135 min) using batch mode operation. The kinetic uptake profiles are well described by the pseudo-second-order model, while the Langmuir model describes the adsorption behaviour at equilibrium. The maximum adsorption capacity of PPAC with methylene blue was 384.61 mg/g at 303 K. Various thermodynamic parameters such as standard enthalpy (∆H°), standard entropy (∆S°) and standard free energy (∆G°) showed that the adsorption of MB onto PPAC was favourable and endothermic in nature. © 2018 Desalination Publications.

Recently, its efficacy is limited due to toxic side effects and chemoresistance over course of time. On the other hand, To elucidate the synergistic pattern impact of co-exposure to Cisplatin and interferon β-induced apoptosis and compare that to single exposure to each drug at three time point 24,48 and 72 respectively. Apoptosis induced by mixture of Cisplatin and interferon in human lung adenocarcinoma cell line A549 was detected through cell viability using castle violet. Low six concentrations used to show that the apoptotic effect increased in a time dependent pattern as well as concentration dependent pattern. In conclusion, induction of apoptosis to cancer cell line may be an important mechanism and promising results of anti-tumor. © 2018, Pharmainfo Publications.

It is a piece of the procedure of basic outline, tremor designing or auxiliary appraisal the Portable building can possibly 'wave' forward and backward amid a quake (or even a serious breeze storm). This is known as the 'basic mode', and is the most minimal recurrence of movable building reaction. Most Portable building structures have higher methods of reaction, which are interestingly enacted amid tremors. For every mode, a reaction is perused from the outline range, in view of the modular recurrence and the modular mass, and they are then consolidated to give a gauge of the aggregate reaction of the structure. In this we need to compute the size of powers every which way and after that see the impacts on the building. This approach characterizes a progression of powers following up on a movable working to speak to the impact of quake ground movement, commonly characterized by a seismic plan reaction range. The relevance of this technique is stretched out in numerous Portable construction standards by applying elements to represent higher movable structures with some higher modes, and for low levels of bending. To represent impacts because of "yielding" of the structure, numerous codes apply adjustment factors that diminish the power situation, the results of this study point out the significance of vibrations caused by shaking in construction of engineering structures as well as the appropriate performance of a TMD and MR in reducing oscillations in Movable buildings. © IAEME PublicationMovable buildings; MR; Seismic; Structural analysis; TMDDepartamento de Ingeniería Mecánica, Universidad de Chile, DIMECThe authors wish to thank the Department of Mechanical, and Electrical & Electronic Engineering, at Engineering College, University of Thi-Qar for its support.Benaroya, H., Nagurka, M., Han, S., (2017) Mechanical Vibration: Analysis, Uncertainties, and Control, , CRC Press; Chopra, A.K., Dynamics of Structures.

This study employs the OA to determine representative sample points from the original EEG data and then applies periodogram (PD), autoregressive (AR), and the mixture of PD and AR to extract the discriminative features from each OA sample group. The obtained feature sets are evaluated by three popular machine learning methods: support vector machine (SVM), quadratic discriminant analysis (QDA), and k-nearest neighbour (k- NN). Several output coding approaches of the SVM classifier are tested for selecting the best feature sets. This scheme was implemented on a benchmark epileptic EEG database for evaluation and also compared with existing methods. The experimental results show that the OA_AR feature set yields better performances by the SVM with an overall accuracy of 100%, and outperforms the state-of-the-art works with a 14.1% improvement. Thus, the findings of this study prove that the proposed OA-based AR scheme has significant potential to extract features from EEG signals. The proposed method will assist experts to automatically analyse a large volume of EEG data and benefit epilepsy research. © The Institution of Engineering and Technology 2018.Blending; Discriminant analysis; Electroencephalography; Image retrieval; Nearest neighbor search; Power spectral density; Spectral density; Support vector machines; Discriminative features; Epileptic electroencephalogram signals; K nearest neighbours (k-NN); Machine learning methods; Overall accuracies; Power spectral density estimations; Quadratic discriminant analysis; Representative sample; Biomedical signal processingYuan, Q., Zhou, W., Li, S., 'Epileptic EEG classification based on extreme learning machine and nonlinear features' (2011) Epilepsy Res, 96 (1), pp. 29-38; Sharma, R., Pachori, R.B., 'Classification of epileptic seizures in EEG signals based on phase space representation of intrinsic mode functions' (2015) Expert Syst.

The ZSWBNNTs and ASWBNNTs show semiconductor and insulator behaviors, respectively along with a direct bandgap at the Γ point in the pristine cases. The obtained results display that this island is affected and altered to the electronic and thermoelectric properties of all systems. The behaviors of all systems are turning to semiconductor and the electronic band gaps are reduced with the C island which enables to use these doped materials in various applications. Meanwhile, the thermoelectric parameters, such as Seebeck coefficient (S), thermoelectric figure of Merit (ZT), phonon thermal conductance (Kph), electrons thermal conductance (Ke), and thermal conductivity of all systems are calculated and studied with and without the C island. The results show that all these thermoelectric properties are related directly to the diameter of the ZSWBNNTs and ASWBNNTs. © 2018 The Physical Society of the Republic of China (Taiwan)ASWBNNTs; Band gap; Thermal conductivity; ZSWBNNTs; ZTAl-Asadi, A.S., Henley, L.A., Ghosh, S., Quetz, A., Dubenko, I., Pradhan, N., Balicas, L., Lin, Z., (2016) J.

ANN is a powerful tool capable of determining the relationship between the desired input and output data while PSO was used as a robust population-based search algorithm to optimize the performance of the ANN model. Specifically, it was used to determine the optimum number of neurons in the hidden layer and the best value of the learning rate of the ANN model. The optimization method includes minimizing the fitness function mean absolute error that was found to be 0.0176. The PSO algorithm suggested an optimum number of neurons in the hidden layer as 15 and a learning rate of 0.761 these consequently used to construct the ANN model. After constructing the hybrid PSO–ANN model, the performance of the intelligent system was examined by determining the regression coefficient (R2) for estimating the experimental values of glucose and xylose and compared to the results from a response surface methodology (RSM) model. The results of R2 of the hybrid PSO–ANN model for glucose and xylose were 0.9939 and 0.9479, respectively, while the RSM model results for the same sugars were 0.8901 and 0.8439. This analysis reveals that the hybrid PSO–ANN model offers a higher degree of accuracy in comparison with the more commonly used RSM model. © 2016, The Natural Computing Applications Forum.Artificial neural network;

The experimental investigation was conducted using a Perspex column with an internal diameter of 10 cm and 100 cm height. Liquid pentane at its saturation temperature and warm water were used in the dispersed phase and continuous phase respectively. Various dispersed phase flow rates (10,15and20L/h) and continuous phase flow rates (10,20,30and40L/h) were tested using three different sparger configurations (7,19and36nozzles) and two different nozzle diameters (1 and 1.25 mm). The results showed that the temperature of the continuous phase decreased with the height of the heat exchanger from its inlet at the top towards its outlet at the bottom. This behaviour was entirely opposite to the dispersed phase that flows counter currently with the continuous phase in the heat exchanger. For the same sparger and constant continuous phase flow rate (Qc), the outlet temperature of the continuous phase was inversely affected by the dispersed phase flow rate (Qd); while decreasing the nozzle numbers in the sparger led to a decrease in the outlet temperature of the continuous phase. Furthermore, the initial temperature of the continuous phase in terms of the Jakobs number (Ja) was found to have a significant positive impact on outlet temperature: the higher the Ja, the higher the outlet temperature. The analytical model had an acceptable agreement with the experimental measurements. © 2018 Elsevier LtdDirect contact evaporator; Direct contact heat transfer; Experimental technique; Modelling; Temperature distributionFlow rate; Heat transfer; Liquids; Models; Nozzles; Temperature distribution; Direct contact; Direct contact heat exchangers; Experimental investigations; Experimental techniques; Initial temperatures; Outlet temperature; Saturation temperature; Temperature distribution measurement; Heat exchangersBaqir, A.S., Mahood, H.B., Hameed, M.S., Heat transfer measurement in a three-phase spray column direct contact heat exchanger for utilisation in energy recovery from low-grade sources (2016) Energy Conv.

The hot ambient air of velocity 6 m/s has been cooled inside the EAHE and the air has been released at a low temperature to cool the transformer walls and then it cooled the internal parts of the transformer. The study included also the addition of nanoparticles to the cooling oil to increase the process of removing the heat generated inside the transformer. The study showed, by using the nanoparticles of (SiC) with volume fraction of 9% in the cooling oil using the EAH system, that the oil temperature has been reduced to about 32 °C as average temperature using SiC and TiO2 nanofluid particles in comparison with the temperature of 29 °C when adding Al2 O3 and also 27 °C temperature adding Cu nanoparticles with 9% volume fraction. © 2018 Praise Worthy Prize S.r.l. - All rights reserved.Coil; Cooling; EAHE; Heat transfer; Nanofluid; Oil; TransformerSegal, V., Hjortsberg, A., Rabinovich, A., Nattrass, D., Raj, K., AC (60 Hz) and impulse breakdown strength of a colloidal fluid based on transformer oil and magnetite nanoparticles (1998) Conference Record of the 1998 IEEE International Symposium on Electrical Insulation, Arlington, pp. 619-622. , Virginia, USA, June 7-10; Segal, V., Rabinovich, A., Nattrass, D., Raj, K., Nunes, A., Experimental study of magnetic colloidal fluids behaviour in power transformers (2000) Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials, 215-216, pp. 513-515; Xuan, Y., Li, Q., Heat transfer enhancement of nanofluids (2000) International Journal of Heat and Fluid Flow, 21, pp. 58-64; Choi, C., Yoo, H.S., Oh, J.M., Preparation and heat transfer properties of nanoparticle-in-transformer oil dispersions as advanced energy-efficient coolants (2008) Current Applied Physics, 8, pp. 710-712; Li, J., Liao, R., Yang, L., Investigation of Natural Ester Based Liquid Dielectrics and Nanofluids (2012) International Conference on High Voltage Engineering and Application, pp. 17-20. , Shanghai, China, September; Mansour, D.-E., Atiya, E.G., Khattab, R.M., Azmy, A.M., Effect of titania nanoparticles on the dielectric properties of transformer oil-based nanofluids (2014) IEEE Transactions on Dielectrics and Electrical Insulation, 21, pp. 295-298; Jin, H., Andritsch, T., Tsekmes, I.A., Kochetov, R., Morshuis, P.H.F., Smit, J.J., Properties of mineral oil based silica nanofluids (2014) IEEE Transactions on Dielectrics and Electrical Insulation, 21, pp. 1100-1108; Fontes, D.H., Ribatski, G., Bandarra, E.P., Experimental evaluation of thermal conductivity, viscosity and breakdown voltage AC of nanofluids of carbon nanotubes and diamond in transformer oil (2015) Diamond Relat.

For this reason, the energy gaps, frontier orbital (HOMO, and LUMO) distributions, total energies, Fermi level energies, work functions and maximum wavelength absorption, vertical absorption energies, and oscillator strengths have been investigated and discussed. The structures of phenanthrene-1,3,4-thiadiazoles oligomers are expanded from 1 to 10 thiadiazole monomeric units, to examine the increase of thiadiazole monomeric units on the optoelectronic properties. We observed that increased the number of monomeric units lead to significantly enhance the optoelectronic properties, which caused to decrease the gap energy from 3.69 eV in the structure with one thiadiazole ring just to 2.36 eV with 10 units. These changes give the shift of maximum absorption wavelengths from 376 to 578 nm. Consequently, these molecules have main absorption bands within the solar spectrum, to give the best performance for photovoltaic and organic solar cells devices. © 2018, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.B3LYP; DFT; energy gap; photovoltaic; thiadiazoleMozer, A.J., Sariciftci, N.S., (2006) C.

The shaped metal deposition method would be an alternative way to traditional manufacturing methods, especially for complex featured and large-scale solid parts manufacturing, and it is particularly used for aerospace structural components, manufacturing, and repairing of die/molds and middle-sized dense parts. This article presents the designing, constructing, and controlling of an additive manufacturing system using tungsten inert gas plus wire–based shaped metal deposition method. The aim of this work is to design and develop tungsten inert gas plus wire–based shaped metal deposition system to be used for fabricating different components directly from computer-aided design data with minimum time consumed in programming and less boring task compared to conventional robotic systems. So, this article covers the important design steps from computer-aided design data to the final deposited part. The developed additive system is capable of producing near-net-shaped components of sizes not exceeding 400 mm in three-dimensional directly from computer-aided design drawing. The results showed that the developed system succeeded to produce near-net-shaped parts for various features of SS308LSi components. Additionally, workshop tests have been conducted in order to verify the capability and reliability of the developed additive manufacturing system.

The success of fire service depends mainly on the speed of the fire truck reaching the scene and the performance on field to reduce losses to a minimum ratio. The objective of study is utilizing the applications of GIS to assess the efficiency of spatial coverage of the fire service in Nasiriyah city and spelling out the necessary measures to increase coverage at the short and long term. The coverage is first evaluated according to the service ranges currently applied by the government departments responsible for the fire service. The obtained results are compared to the coverage based on service radius .The study suggests the service polygon method to determine areas where the fire service can reach in (4 minutes) or less. The main conclusions of the study is that the assessment of the coverage using a radius of service equal to (2.5 km) corresponds to the characteristics of the road network in the study area, but the findings of coverage using the suggested service polygon method is more accurate and closer to reality. The number of fire stations available within the area of study is sufficient at the current time, but poor distribution has provided typical coverage for only 60% of the areas in need of fire service. © IAEME Publication.Coverage range; Fire station; GIS; Service polygon; Service radiusAlfakhry, A., Ali, T., Matloub, F., The efficiency of the spatial distribution of civil defense stations in Mosul City (2010) Al-Rafidain Engineering Journal, 18 (6), pp. 61-80; Sen, A., Onden, I., Gokgoz, T., Sen, C., (2013) A GIS Approach to Fire Station Location Selection, , www.academin.edu, Retrieved from on 2nd March; Habibi, K., Lotfi, S., Koohsari, M., Spatial analysis of urban fire station location by integrating AHP model and IO logic using GIS - A case study of zone 6 of Tehran (2008) Journal of Applied Science, 8 (19), pp. 3302-3315; Lai, W., Han-Lun, L., Qi, L., Jing-Yi, C., Yi-Jiao, C., Study and implementation of fire sites planning based on GIS and AHP (2011) The 5th Conference on Performance-Based Fire and Fire Protection Engineering, (11), pp. 486-495; Jarallah, A., The planning properties for distribution of fire department centers in the city of Dammam (1995) Al’amn Juornal, 11, pp. 299-1262; Shawqi, M., Al-Qahtani, A., (2004) Pattern of Geographical Distribution of Civil Defense Centers and Its Impact on the Speed of Dealing with Emergencies - Applied Study on Riyadh City, , Master Thesis, Naif Arab University for Security Sciences; Alkhawaja, S., Analysing the spatial distribution of fire service in Mansoura using Geographical Information Systems (GIS) (2004) 6th Symposium-Human and Environment Where to?, p. 87. , Faculty of Arts, Alexandria University; Al-Zair, N., Geographical Evaluation of the Distribution of Civil Defense Centers in Riyadh City: A Study in the Geography of Services, , Department of Geography - Faculty of Arts King Saud University; Mohammed, B., Al-Qurashi, A., (2005) Spatial Distribution of Fire Accidents in the City of Mecca with a Statement of the Importance of the Use of GIS in Monitoring the Safety of Enterprises, , Master Thesis in Police Sciences, Naif Arab University for Security Sciences; Al-Joufi, M., (2007) The Use of Geographic Information Systems in the Study of the Distribution of Civil Defense Centers in Makkah, , Faculty of Environmental Designs, Abdulaziz University, Saudi Arabia; (2007) GIS for Fire Station Locations and Response Protocol, pp. 1-3. , Environmental Systems Research Institute ESRI white paper, January 14–27; Adoo, M., Determine the current and optimum service area of civil defense centers in Mosul City using geographic information systems (2013) Journal of Education and Science, 20 (1), pp. 365-382; (2010) Geo-Database of Nasiriyah Master Plan, , Iraqi Ministry of Municipalities Directorate of Urban Planning in Thi-Qar; (2010) Urban Housing Standards Brochure, , Iraqi Ministry of Construction and Housing Public Authority for Housing; Population, Buildings and Household Survey for 2010, , Iraqi Ministry of Planning Central Organization for Statistics; Liu, N., Huang, B., Chandramouli, M., Optimal siting of fire stations using GIS and ANT algorithm (2006) Journal of Computing in Civil Engineering, 20 (5), pp. 361-369IAEME Publication09766308EnglishInt.J.

Male rabbits were divided into four groups of six animals. The intact rabbits in the first group served as a negative control. The second group served as a positive control (hypercholesterolemic rabbits). Over a 4-week period, hypercholesterolemic rabbits in the third group received a low dose of alkaloid extract (33 mg/kg), and the hypercholesterolemic rabbits in the fourth group received a high dose (66 mg/kg). The results revealed that both doses of alkaloid extract significantly decreased levels of cholesterol, triglycerides, low-density lipoproteins (LDL), and very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL) when compared to the control group, whereas the high-density lipoproteins (HDL) increased significantly compared to the control group. The active compounds in the alkaloid extract were identified using GC-mass. The most abundant compounds found in the extract were 1-(+)-ascorbic acid 2,6-dihexadecanoate, 9,12-octadecadienoic acid (Z, Z)-, hexadecanoic acid, 2-hydroxy-1- (hydroxymethyl) ethyl ester, and gamolenic acid. © 2018, Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.Cholesterol; HDL; LDL; Rabbit; Spirulina platensisalkaloid; ascorbic acid; cyanobacterium; dose-response relationship; lagomorph; lipid; protein; Animalia; Cyanobacteria; Oryctolagus cuniculus; Spirulina platensis; alkaloid; cholesterol; triacylglycerol; animal; hypercholesterolemia; Leporidae; male; metabolism; Spirulina; Alkaloids; Animals; Cholesterol; Hypercholesterolemia; Male; Rabbits; Spirulina; Triglyceridescholesterol, 57-88-5; Alkaloids; Cholesterol; TriglyceridesUniversity of Basrah: IQ-64001; Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique, CNRS: 6249Acknowledgements This study was supported by the College of Education for Pure Sciences, University of Basrah, Iraq, and is the result of the college’s collaboration with the College of Science, Thi Qar University, IQ-64001 Al Nasiriyah, Iraq; the Pharmacology Department, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Suez Canal University, Egypt; and the Chrono-Environment Laboratory, National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS 6249), Besançon, France.Funding This study was funded by grant 2215 from the Iraki University and the CNRS 6249, Besançon, France.Abarzua, S., Jakubowski, S., Eckert, S., Fuchs, P., Biotechnological investigation for the prevention of marinebiofouling II.

In order to simulate this method, a new control system is presented and discussed in this paper to deal with the robotics technology design, construction and operation of robots that are used in the applications that require accurate and repetitive tasks. This paper also proposed a differential load cell transformer transducer feedback control system to control the positional errors which are caused by robot links deflections that depends on the robot position and its payload. The proposed control system will be used to control the safety of the robot, avoiding the collisions, control the resolution, accuracy, and repeatability. © TJPRC Pvt.

In today’s era of technology, M-Learning (ML) system has become an important component of Information and Communication Technology provided by educational institutions such as universities to facilitate all the transactions between institutions and their students or lecturers. This system has gained the popularity in developed and developing countries alike. Despite the known benefits of ML to the education community, usage of ML services among students in the developing countries, especially in Iraq, is still low. Additionally, there has not been empirical study on the continuous usage of ML services in developing countries such as Iraq. The primary objective of this study is to determine the contributing factors for continuous usage of ML services among students in a higher education of Iraq. Moreover, the study used quantitative approach by distributing 600 questionnaires to respondents in the public universities of Iraq. Besides that, the collected data was analysed using a Structural Equation Model. The findings showed that information quality construct has a large effect on user satisfaction than service quality and compatibility constructs. © 2005 - ongoing JATIT & LLS.Continuous usage; Evaluation is success; Higher education; Mobile learningU54-CA193313; 2015A030311039, 201704020215 N_HKUST606/17 NSFC-RGC U54-CA193313 NIH ITCPD/17-9 ITC C6002-17G HKUST; 201704020215, N_HKUST606/17; National Institutes of Health, NIH: ITCPD/17-9; National Natural Science Foundation of China, NSFC: 81502078, 81771958, 81825013, 81825013 81771958 81502078This work was supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (grant numbers 81825013, 81771958 and 81502078), the State Key Program of National Natural Science Foundation of Guangdong, China (grant numbers 2015A030311039), the Science and Technology Program of Guangzhou, China (grant numbers 201704020215) and N_HKUST606/17 (NSFC-RGC), U54-CA193313 (NIH), ITCPD/17-9 (ITC), C6002-17G (RGC-CRF) and IAS postdoc fellowship from HKUST.National Natural Science Foundation of China 81825013 81771958 81502078 State Key Program of National Natural Science Foundation of Guangdong, China 2015A030311039 Science and Technology Program of Guangzhou, China 201704020215 N_HKUST606/17 NSFC-RGC U54-CA193313 NIH ITCPD/17-9 ITC C6002-17G HKUSTCavus, N., Investigating mobile devices and LMS integration in higher education: Student perspectives (2011) Procedia Comput.

To obtain a simple closed-form mathematically tractable expression, two different unified approximate models have been used. The mixture gamma distribution which is a highly accurate approximation approach has been first employed to represent the signal-to-noise ratio of fading channel. In the second approach, the mixture of Gaussian distribution which is another unified representation approach has been utilised. A comparison between the simulated and numerical results using both distributions over composite a - h - m/gamma fading channels have been provided. © The Institution of Engineering and Technology 2018.Wu, D., Negi, R., Effective capacity: A wireless link model for support of quality of service (2003) Trans.

The foams were fabricated via counter gravity infiltration of a packed bed of recycled expanded glass (EG) particles. The metallic matrix of all foam samples was A356 aluminium. Different particle sizes were considered, i.e. diameters between 1–1.4, 2–2.8 and 4–5.6 mm. The microstructures of EG-MSF were investigated by optical and scanning electron microscopy and the grain size of the aluminium alloy was found to increase with EG particle size. Uni-axial compression testing of EG-MSF indicated that its mechanical properties depend both on foam density and particle size. Smaller particles were found to dampen plateau stress oscillation and improve the energy absorption characteristics of EG-MSF. © 2018 Elsevier B.V.A356 aluminium alloy; Expanded glass particles; Mechanical characterisation; Metal syntactic foams; Microstructure; Particle sizeCompression testing; Density (specific gravity); Glass; Grain size and shape; Mechanical properties; Metals; Microstructure; Packed beds; Particle size; Scanning electron microscopy; Syntactics; A356 aluminium alloy; Absorption characteristics; Different particle sizes; Glass particles; Mechanical characterisation; Metallic matrices; Microstructure and mechanical properties; Syntactic foams; Metal foamsCochran, J.K., (2014), Metal syntactic foam; Zhang, L.P., Zhao, Y.Y., Mechanical response of Al matrix syntactic foams produced by pressure infiltration casting (2007) J.

OFDM framework indicates numerous positive properties, for example, high phantom effectiveness, strength to channel blurring and insusceptibility to drive impedance. The fundamental weakness of OFDM is the high time-area crest to-normal power proportion (PAPR) that cutoff point’s transmitter control effectiveness. Something else, OFDM flag might be misshaped by the nonlinear conduct of the powerful intensifier (HPA) at the transmitter. The transmitter can lessen PAPR by misshaping the information bearers or by adding energy to the free transporters. This paper investigates the capacity of Dummy Sequence Insertion (DSI) calculation to diminish PAPR in remote neighborhood (WLAN)/OFDM framework. The joining of DSI on this framework is performed by estimating the PAPR at the yield of the IFFT (Inverse Fast Fourier Transform) in the wake of including a 6-bit succession at the spurious sub-channels information sources and settle on a choice to transmit the information if the PAPR for this information grouping under a predetermined edge. Not at all like a large portion of the information contortion have calculations utilized for PAPR lessening techniques, did the low unpredictability DSI strategy not required any sort of side data.

Different values of twisting ratio (y/w) of 2, 4 and 6 with volume concentration (ϕ) of 0.5% and 4 % are investigated under Reynolds number range of 5000 to 35000. The object of this project is to augment the transfer of heat in a tube by employing the combined influence of double twisting tape with nano fluid. The Navier - Stockes and energy equations as well to the turbulence model are desired for modeling this physical problem. ANSYS Fluent code is utilized to gain the results. The numerical consequence explained that the Nusselt number (Nu), friction factor (f), and overall thermal performance factor raises as twisting ratio decreases. The results also display that the twin twisting tape more effective than a plain tube for heat transfer augmentation. This increase is improved with increasing volume concentration. © 2006-2018 Asian Research Publishing Network (ARPN).CFD; Nano fluids; Twin twisted tapeEiamsa-ard, S., Kiatkittipong, K., Heat Transfer Enhancement by Multiple Twisted Tape Inserts and TiO2/Water Nanofluid (2014) Applied Thermal Engineering;

Dept., College of Engineering, Thi-qar University, Nassiriya, IraqThis submitted paper, states numerical discussion for heat transfer augmentation in a heated circular tube by using the combined twin twisted tape and nano fluid. Al2o3-water is adopted as the nano fluid. The whirling motion is tested with clockwise and counter twin twisting tape. The investigation has been conducted for Reynolds number range from 5000 to 35000 while the twist ratio has the values 2,4 and 6 respectively. Two values of nano fluid volume concentration is examined as 0.5% and 4% respectively. The research is aim to promote the heat transfer enhancement by means of the combined mechanism of twin twisted tape and nano fluid. A FLUENT ANSYS 17 commercial code is used for problem designing, formulation and getting the results. The obtained results show that the twin twist is most active than the single twist for heat transmit improvement. This increase is enhanced as the volume concentration increases. In addition, a counter clockwise twisting tape offered better thermal performance than clockwise twisting. The numerical consequence revealed that, the Nusselt number, friction factor, and overall performance factor increase as twist ratio decreases. © 2018 IEEE.CFD; counter twin twisted tape; nano fluid; Turbulence modelClocks; Computational fluid dynamics; Reynolds number; Rotation; Sustainable development; Turbulence models; Combined mechanisms; Heat transfer augmentation; Heat Transfer enhancement; Heat transfer intensifications; Nanofluids; Overall performance factors; Twisted tapes; Volume concentration; Heat transferMaddah, H., Alizadeh, M., Ghasemi, N., Alwi, S., Experimental study of Al2O3/water nanofluid turbulent heat transfer enhancement in the horizontal double pipes fitted with modified twisted tapes (2014) International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer, 78, pp. 1042-1054; Ramteke, S.N., Ate, V.P., Nano fluid Heat Transfer enhancement with twisted tape insert-A review (2014) Int.

The air is first used in heat sink and then two phase change materials (n-octadecane and RT44) have been used as cooling mediums at different ambient temperatures. The results obtained show that, using of the phase change materials with finned and unfinned heat sink instead of conventional cooling with air lead to improve of cooling enhancement of micro heat sink, and selected of the phase change material should be according to its melting temperature corresponding to the certain application since different phase change martials caused different values of reduction in heat sink temperature in range of ambient temperature due to difference in its melting temperatures. © 2018 IEEE.electronic cooling; Heat sinks; Micro-channel heat sink; numerical investigation; Phase change materialsElectronic cooling; Fins (heat exchange); Heat sinks; Melting point; Sustainable development; Cooling enhancement; Cooling medium; Cooling performance; Heat sink temperature; Micro channel heat sinks; Micro heat sink; Micro pin fin heat sinks; Numerical investigations; Phase change materialsIsaacs, S.A., Kim, Y.J., McNamara, A.J., Joshi, Y., Zhang, Y., Bakir, M.S., Two-phase flow and heat transfer in pin-fin enhanced micro-gaps (2012) 13th IEEE ITHERM Conference, 978, pp. 1084-1089; Baby, R., Balaji, C., Experimental investigations on phase change material based finned heat sinks for electronic equipment cooling (2012) Int.

Synchronization properties and the effect of parameter mismatches on synchronization quality are investigated. The present simulation shows that the complete synchronization can be realized under suitable system parameters. The results of the present simulation indicate that the significant effects of coupling strength, photon lifetime and gain stages number on the synchronization quality. On the other hand, the present results indicate that the insignificant effect of the feedback delay time, the coupling delay time and the synchronization can occur at any delay-time conditions (DTCs). © 2018 The Physical Society of the Republic of China (Taiwan)Mutual optoelectronic coupling; Negative optoelectronic feedback; Quantum cascade lasers; Rate equation model; SynchronizationCurl, R.F., Capasso, F., Gmachl, C., Kosterev, A.A., McManus, B., Lewicki, R., Pusharsky, M., Tittel, F.K., Quantum cascade lasers in chemical physics (2010) Chem.

The conversion of light into plasmons is a possible way to overcome this problem. Plasmon's wavelengths are much shorter than that of light which enables the propagation of signals in small size components. In this paper, a 3D simulation of surface plasmon polariton (SPP) excitation is performed. The Finite integration technique was used to solve Maxwell's equations in the dielectric-metal interface. The results show how the surface plasmon polariton was generated at the grating assisted dielectric-metal interface. SPP is a good candidate for signal confinement in small size optoelectronics which allow high density optical integrated circuits in all optical networks. © 2018 The AuthorsAll-optical networks; Optical integrated circuits; Optoelectronics; Plasmons; Surface plasmon polaritonMansoor, R., Koziel, S., Sasse, H., Duffy, A., Crosstalk suppression bandwidth optimisation of a vertically coupled ring resonator add/drop filter (2015) IET Optoelectron, 9, pp. 30-36; Poon, A.W., Luo, X., Fang, X., Chen, H., Cascaded microresonator-based matrix switch for silicon on-chip optical interconnection (2009) Proc IEEE, 97 (7), pp. 1216-1238; Barnes, W.L., Dereux, A., Ebbesen, T.W., Surface plasmon subwavelength optics (2003) Nature, 424, pp. 824-830; Melnyk, A.R., Harrison, M.J., Theory of optical excitation of plasmons in metals (1970) Phys Rev B, 2, p. 835; Atwater, H.A., The promise of plasmonics (2007) Sci Am, 296, pp. 56-62; Linic, S., Christopher, P., Ingram, D.B., Plasmonic-metal nanostructures for efficient conversion of solar to chemical energy (2011) Nat Mater, 10, pp. 911-921; Dionne, J.A., Sweatlock, L.A., Atwater, H.A., Polman, A., Plasmon slot waveguides: towards chip-scale propagation with subwavelength-scale localization (2006) Phys Rev B, 73, p. 035407; Cheyssac, P., Sterligov, V.A., Lysenko, S.I., Kofman, R., Surface plasmon-polaritons (1999) Phys Status Solidi (a), 175, pp. 253-258; Zayats, A.V., Smolyaninov, I.I., Near-field photonics: surface plasmon polaritons and localized surface plasmons (2003) J Opt A: Pure Appl Opt, 5 (4), p.

The air is first used in heat sink and then four phase change materials (paraffin wax, n-eicosane, p116 and RT41) have been used as cooling mediums in different types and different configurations at different ambient temperatures. Constant heat flux is applied on the base of heat sink and mixed (convection and radiation) boundary condition is applied at the top surfaces of heat sink. The results showed that, using of the phase change materials in micro-channels heat sink with different configurations lead to enhance the cooling performance of micro heat sink. The phase change material should be selected according to its melting temperature according to the certain application as different phase change martials caused different values of reduction in heat sink temperature in range of ambient temperature due to difference in melting temperatures of PCMs. The cost of materials depends on the classification of the PCM (organic and inorganic) and quantity of PCMs used in a certain application. © 2018 Karabuk UniversityElectronic cooling; Heat sinks; Micro-channel heat sink; Numerical investigation; Phase change materialsHossein, S., Ali, A., Heat Transfer from a Micro Fin Array Heat Sink by Natural Convection and Radiation under Slip Flow Regime (2010) Proc.

The people’s perception of infertility varies from culture to culture. So this work amid to determine the prevalence and pattern of endocrinological abnormalities and semen parameters in patients investigated for male infertility in our environment, and any associated between semen’s and hormones’ results. This work included 89 infertility men and 11 healthy as control group. Their age was ranged between 20-50 years old. The volume, concentration and movement of seminal fluid patterns were examined. Then patients were divided to four groups: Azospermia, Oligospermia, and Normospermia poor movement. Follicle-stimulating hormone FSH, luteinizing hormone LH, Prolactin, and Testosterone were determined. The endocrinological diagnosis was done. The highest frequency % of cases was normospermia with poor movement and the lowest was azospermia. The mean of patients’ age was about 34.5 years. The frequencies% of infertility was significantly higher within 25-40 age group. The semen volume was significantly lower in Azospermia and Oligospermia groups. The normal shape sperm and the sperm concentration were lower in all patients groups. FSH, LH, and prolactin levels increased in Azospermia and Oligospermea groups compared to normospermia and control groups. The highest frequency of cases with high FSH, LH, and Prolactin was in Azospermea, and lowest in normospermia while the frequency of cases with high testosterone frequency was (0) in Azospermea and only (1) in Oligospermea, and Normospermea. In Azospermia and Oligospermia, the significantly highest endocrinological diagnosis was germinal epithelial failure. This study reported the significance of proper endocrinological work-up in evaluating patients with infertility where appropriate because these cases may be identifiable endocrine disorders that may be correctable, and that in our environment, endocrine dysfunction is common cause of male infertility. It also reported the frequencies of different endocrine abnormalities, some of which can be successfully processed. We conclude that hormonal evaluations should be performed in the assessment of infertility in males in our environment. © 2009-2018, JGPT.

The governing equation includes thermal strain induced by web temperature change and assumes viscoelastic material behavior. A closed-form expression for temperature distribution in the moving web is derived, which is utilized to obtain thermal strain. A model for web tension in a multispan roll-to-roll system can be developed using this governing equation. To evaluate the governing equation, measured data from an industrial web process line are compared with data from model simulations. Since the viscoelastic behavior of web materials is affected by the web temperature change, elevated temperature creep, and stress-relaxation experiments are conducted to determine the temperature-dependent viscoelastic parameters of the utilized viscoelastic model. Comparisons of the measured data with model simulation data are presented and discussed. An analysis of the web tension disturbance propagation behavior is also provided to compare transport behavior of elastic and viscoelastic materials.

This method is based on the interaction prediction principle due to a two-level functional hierarchy of calculation is organized in the method, and aimed at increasing their scalability and reducing computational complexity. At the lower level, the routing order is determined, and at the upper level, the link resource is allocated between flows with different classes of service. The numerical example confirms the convergence of the method to optimal solutions for a finite number of iterations. Also due to the use of the interaction prediction principle, the solution of the problem of route recalculation and the order of link resource allocation can be completed at an arbitrary iteration and the resulting solution will be acceptable and satisfy all the conditions and constraints. © 2018 IEEE.Allocation; CoS; Flow; Network; Resource; RoutingCobalt; Cobalt compounds; Convergence of numerical methods; Iterative methods; Networks (circuits); Quality of service; Resource allocation; Allocation; Flow; Functional hierarchy; Hierarchical method; Interaction prediction principles; Optimal solutions; Resource; Routing; Network routingBarreiros, M., Lundqvist, P., Qos-enabled networks: Tools and foundations (2016) Wiley Series on Communications Networking & Distributed Systems, p. 254p. , 2nd Edition, Wiley; Marsic, I., (2013) Computer Networks: Performance and Quality of Service, , Rutgers University; Ghosh, S., Rajkumar, R., Hansen, J., Lehoczky, J., Scalable qos-based resource allocation in hierarchical networked environment (2005) 11th IEEE Real Time and Embedded Technology and Applications Symposium, pp. 256-267. , 7-10 March; Zuo, L., Zhu, M.M., Improved scheduling algorithms for single-path multiple bandwidth reservation requests (2016) 2016 IEEE Trustcom/BigDataSE/ISPA, pp. 1692-1699. , 23-26 Aug; Yeremenko O, S., Lemeshko, O.V., Nevzorova O, S., Hailan, A.M., Method of hierarchical qos routing based on the network resource reservation (2017) 2017 IEEE First Ukraine Conference on ELECTRICAL AND COMPUTER ENGINEERING (UKRCON), pp. 971-976. , Kyiv, Ukraine, May 29-June 2; Katz, D., Kompella, K., Yeung, D., (2003) Traffic Engineering (TE) Extensions to OSPF Version 2, p. 14p. , RFC 3630, September; Seok, Y., Lee, Y., Choi, Y., Kim, C., Dynamic constrained traffic engineering for multicast routing (2002) Information Networking: Wired Communications and Management, 2343, pp. 278-288. , September; Capelle, M., Abdellatif, S., Huguet, M., Online virtual links resource allocation in software-defined networks (2015) 2015 IFIP Networking Conference (IFIP Networking), pp. 1-9. , Toulouse, France, May; Lemeshko, O., Yeremenko, O., Nevzorova, O., Hierarchical method of inter-Area fast rerouting (2017) Transport and Telecommunication Journal, 18 (2), pp. 155-167. , June; Lemeshko, O.V., Yeremenko, O.S., Dynamics analysis of multipath qos-routing tensor model with support of different flows classes (2016) 2016 International Conference on Smart Systems and Technologies (SST), pp. 225-230. , Josip Juraj Strossmayer University of Osijek, Croatia, 12-14 Oct; Kirichenko, L., Radivilova, T., Analyzes of the distributed system load with multifractal input data flows (2017) 2017 14th International Conference The Experience of Designing and Application of CAD Systems in Microelectronics (CADSM), pp. 260-264. , Lviv; Mesarovic, M.D., Macko, D., Takahara, Y., (1970) Theory of Hierarchical, Multilevel, System, , Academic Press, New York and London; Singh, M.G., Titli, A., (1978) Systems: Decomposition, Optimization and Control, , Pergamon, Oxford; Lemeshko, O., Nevzorova, O., Hailan, A., The increasing convergence of coordination procedure in the implementation of multipath hierarchical routing (2014) 2014 First International Scientific-Practical Conference Problems of Infocommunications Science and Technology PICS&T'2014, pp. 45-48. , Kharkiv, Ukraine, October 14-17; Nevzorova, O., Vavenko, T., Arif, F.A.R., Hierarchical method of load-balancing routing in MPLS network 2017 4th International Scientific-Practical Conference Problems of Infocommunications.

In the present study, the effect of rolling process parameters such as friction coefficient between roller-plate surfaces, roller's speed and diameter has been investigated. An FE simulation was carried out using ABAQUS 6.12 software (Explicit) to investigate the influence of these parameters on roller's force, equivalent plastic strain (PEEQ) and vonMises stresses. The results show the roller diameter has a significant effect on the effective friction coefficient (EFC) than roller speed, meanwhile, the increasing of roller diameter leads to decrease the rolling process time. Moreover, the vonMises stresses increase throughout the rolling process until reach a certain value then slightly decrease and remain almost in the extent of this value even the finished of the process. Also the equivalent plastic strain (PEEQ) has inverse relation with the roller speed. © IJENS.Compressive force; Diameter; Effective friction Coefficient(EFC); Equivalent plastic strain (PEEQ); Force and moment; Roller's speed; VonMises stressesSeyed, R., "Investigation of Influence Parameters on the Hot Rolling Process Using Finite Element Method" 2nd International Conference on Engineering Optimization, , September 6-9, 2010, Lisbon, Portugal; Srinivasa, P.L., Patil, H., Sarada, B.N., "Studies on Influence of Roller Diameter and Roller Speed on Process Parameters in Hot Rolling Process Using Manufacturing Simulation" (2016) International Journal of Current Engineering and Scientific Research (IJCESR), 3 (6), pp. 24-28; Mikell, P., "Fundamental of modern manufacturing materials, processes and systems", pp. 396-410. , Fourth Edition, USA 2010 John Willey & Sons, Inc; Mahdi, B., Hosein, B., "An Investigation on the Roll Force and Torque Fluctuations during hot Strip Rolling Process" Production and Manufacturing Research Journal, 2 (1), pp. 128-141. , http://www.tandfonline.com/loi/tpmr20, An open Acess Journal, Published line: 28 March 2014, Journal homepage; Thiago, G., dos Santos, C.A., "The Analysis of the Cold Flat Rolling Process by Self Program" (2017) Materials Research, 3 (20), pp. 646-652. , http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/1980-5373-MR-2016-0319; Pesin, A., pustovoytov, D., Kolesnik, A., Pesin, I., (2015) "Finite Element Modeling of Strain Distribution through Sheet Thickness during Cold Rolling with Grooved Rolls", , MATEC Conference 26, 2015 (03009-1-4), Published by EDP Science; Nurudeen Raji, A., Oluleker Oluwole, O., "Influence of Degree of Cold-Drawing on the Mechanical Properties of Low Carbon Steel" (2011) Materials Science and Application, 2, pp. 1556-1563. , http://www.SciRP.org/journal/msa; Yanagimoto, J., "Mathematical Modeling for Rolling Force and Microstructure Evolution and Microstructure Controlling with Heavy Reduction in Tandem Hot Strip Rolling " (2002) Steel Research, 73, pp. 56-62; Shangwu, X., " Three Dimensional Simulation of Flat Rolling Through a Combined Finite Element-Boundary Element Approach" (1999) Finite Element in Analysis and Design, 32, pp. 221-233; Devarajan, K., Prakash Marimuthu, K., Ramesh, A., "FEM Analysis of Effect Rolling Parameters on Cold Rolling Process " (2002) Bonfring International Journal of Industrial Engineering and Management Science, 2 (1), pp. 35-40. , March; Lin, J.C., "Prediction of Rolling Force and Deformation in Three Dimensional Cold Rolling by Using Finite Element Method and A Neural Network" (2002) International Journal of Manufacturing Technology, Springer Verlag, 20, pp. 799-806; Abdollahi Ali Beik, H., Dehghani, K., "Irregularity in Friction Hills during the Cold Rolling of Materials", , Amirkabir University of Technology, 424 Hafez Ave., P.O.Box 15875-4413, Tehran 15914, Iran, e-mail: habdollahi2002@yahoo.com, & dehghanti@aut.ac.ir; Rath, S., "Computer Simulation of Hot Rolling of Flat Products" (2016) Science Publishing Group, 5 (6), pp. 75-81. , http://www.sciencepublishing.com/j/se; Tripathi, A., Medhavi, A., "Finite Element Simulation of Hot Rolling for an Aluminium 2024 Plate" (2014) International Journal of Scientific and Research Publications, 4 (12), pp. 1-5. , http://www.ijsrp.org, December; Dwivedi, S., Agnihotri, G., Pathak, K.K., "Parametric Study of the hot Rolling Process Using FEM" (2012) Engineering Research and Applications (IJERA), 2 (5), pp. 1517-1522. , http://www.ijera.com, September-October; ABAQUS CAE ver. 6.12, 2012, standard User's ManualInternational Journals of Engineering and Sciences Publisher22272771EnglishInt.

In this paper, an attempt is made to design a new DoA index. We applied a statistical model and spectral graph wavelet transform (SGWT) to monitor the DoA. The de-noised electroencephalography (EEG) signals are partitioned into segments using a window technique. The window size is determined empirically, then each EEG segment is divided into sub-blocks to make the signal quasi stationary. 10 statistical characteristics are extracted from each sub-block. As a result, a vector of statistical characteristics is pulled out from each segment. Each vector of the features is then mapped as a weighted graph and spectral graph wavelet transform is performed. The total energy of wavelet coefficients at different scales is tested. The energy of wavelet coefficients at scale 3 is selected to form a SGWTDoA function. The SGWTDoA is evaluated using an anesthesia EEG recordings and the bispectral (BIS) from 22 subjects. The Bland-Altman, regression, Q-Q plot and Pearson correlation are used to verify the agreement between the SGWTDoA and the BIS. The experimental results demonstrate that the SGWTDoA has the ability to estimate the DoA accurately. The SGWTDoA is also compared and tested with the BIS in the case of poor signal quality. Our findings show that, the SGWTDoA can reflect the transition from unconsciousness to consciousness efficiently even for a poor signal while the BIS fails to display the DoA values on the monitor. © 2018 Elsevier LtdDepth of anesthesia; Poor signal quality; Spectral graph wavelet transform; Statistical modelAnesthesiology; Complex networks; Correlation methods; Display devices; Electroencephalography; Electrophysiology; Depth of anesthesia; Pearson correlation; Quasi-stationary; Signal quality; Statistical characteristics; Statistical modeling; Wavelet coefficients; Window techniques; Wavelet transformsChen, S., Varma, R., Sandryhaila, A., Kovačević, J., Discrete signal processing on graphs: sampling theory (2015) IEEE Trans.

This study explored the utilization of three methods of modification of AC produced from coconut shell by treating it with nitric acid (HNO3), potassium permanganate (KMnO4) and heating at 600°C to improve the adsorption capacity. The AC can remove multi-pollutants in the filtration process which was used to treat landfill leachate. The water quality parameters such as pH, TSS, Ammonia-Nitrogen and a few heavy metals were considered in the present study. Results showed that the removal of these parameters was proportional with the increase of contact time and the bed depth of AC. The isotherm analysis of the adsorption of modified AC showed the best Removal Efficiency (RE) can be achieved when AC treated with KMnO4 for NH3-N, zinc, TSS and sulphide. The morphology of the AC was studied through Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy Dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) pattern analysis and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) analysis. It was found that various types of oxygen functional groups were introduced onto the surface of coconut shell derived AC through oxidation using HNO3. FTIR was used to characterize the surface oxygen functional groups. The surface functional groups such as N-H and C-H stretching played a significant role in heavy metals adsorption. Hence, it can be concluded that the hybrid technique by using electrolysis process with AC adsorption be an effective way to remove the suspended solids and heavy metals from landfill leachate and thus able to reduce environmental pollution. © 2018, Korean Society of Civil Engineers.activated carbon; adsorption isotherm; electrolysis; Landfill leachateActivated carbon; Activated carbon treatment; Adsorption; Adsorption isotherms; Chemicals removal (water treatment); Electrochemical electrodes; Electrolysis; Energy dispersive spectroscopy; Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy; Heavy metals; Land fill; Metal analysis; Nitric acid; Pollution; Scanning electron microscopy; Water quality; X ray spectroscopy; Zinc sulfide; Energy dispersive X ray spectroscopy; Environmental pollutions; Fourier transform infrared; Landfill leachates; Oxygen functional groups; Potassium permanganate; Surface functional groups; Water quality parameters; Leachate treatmentUniversiti Teknologi Malaysia, UTM; Beijing University of Civil Engineering and Architecture, BUCEA; Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign; Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, UPM; Beijing University of Civil Engineering and Architecture, BUCEA; National Institute of Technology Karnataka, Surathkal, NITK; Uttaradit Rajabhat University, URU; Universiti Putra Malaysia, UPM: 43400; Victoria University, VU; Armament Research, Development and Engineering Center, ARDEC: CRC; Beijing University of Civil Engineering and Architecture, BUCEA; Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, UTM*Ph.D. Student, Dept. of Civil Engineering, University Putra Malaysia, 43400 UPM Serdang, Selangor, Malaysia; Civil Engineering Dept., Thi-Qar Uni-versity, Iraq (E-mail: iqbalkhalaf77@gmail.com) **Associate Professor, Department of Civil Engineering, Uttara University, Dhaka, Bangladesh; Dept. of Civil Engineering, University Putra Malay-sia, 43400 UPM Serdang, Selangor, Malaysia; Housing Research Centre and Institute of Advanced Technology, University Putra Malaysia, Selan-gor, Malaysia (Corresponding Author, E-mail: ashikcivil@yahoo.com; amimul@upm.edu.my) ***Student, Dept. of Civil Engineering, National Institute of Technology Karnataka, Surathkal, Mangalore 575025, Karnataka, India (E-mail: bipin-jose95@gmail.com) ****Senior Lecturer, Faculty of Civil Engineering and UTM Construction Research Center (CRC), Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM), 81310 Skudai, Johor, Malaysia (E-mail: mzaman@utm.my) *****Senior Lecturer, Institute for Sustainability and Innovation, College of Engineering and Science, Victoria University, Melbourne 14428, Australia (E-mail: anne.ng@vu.edu.au) ******Senior Lecturer, Dept. of Civil Engineering, University Putra Malaysia, 43400 UPM Serdang, Selangor, Malaysia (E-mail: syazwani@upm.edu.my) *******Senior Lecturer, Dept. of Civil Engineering, University Putra Malaysia, 43400 UPM Serdang, Selangor, Malaysia (E-mail: niknor@upm.edu.my)Ahn, C.K., Park, D., Woo, S.H., Park, J.M., Removal of cationic heavy metal from aqueous solution by activated carbon impregnated with anionic surfactants (2009) J.

The objectives of this study were to assess the bioavailability and transfer potential of various TMs present in water and sediments in a reservoir receiving landfill leachates. An active biomonitoring approach was adopted consisting of exposing naive laboratory organisms in cages deployed in the field. Aquatic insects such as Chironomus riparius larvae are good candidates since they represent key organisms in the trophic functioning of aquatic ecosystems. The results show that water, suspended particles, and sediments were significantly contaminated by various TMs (As, Cd, Cu, Ni, Pb, and Zn). Their contribution to the transfer of TMs depends, however, on the specific element considered, e.g., Cd in sediments or Pb in both suspended particles and sediments. The internal fate of TMs was investigated according to their fractionation between an insoluble and a cytosolic fraction. This approach revealed different detoxification strategies capable of preventing the induction of deleterious effects at the individual scale.

Hence, the accuracy of detection and matching fingerprint plays an important role in many research works. Many fingerprints sample are degraded through such other transformations. Therefore, there is a need to find a method that able to detect and match fingerprints sample over all other circumstances and give high accuracy rate. There are two approaches are commonly used, minutiae based and image based approach, minutia approach faced several problems when fingerprint samples are degraded or rotated which lead to poor performance result, image-based approach is seem that its very robust against such other degradation issues. In this paper, we proposed a novel modification to one of the most robust algorithms that used to extract the interest points, called SURF. These points also called feature are later used for matching process after eliminating outlier sets. The proposed system is tested on FVC2002 DB1, and FVC2004 DB2 according to set of performance evaluation metrics such as FAR, FRR, SMR, EER and accuracy, which shows our proposed system can successfully find matching between one fingerprint and other one (1:1) matching, as well as (1:M) matching when more than one fingerprint images may have related to the query image. © 2005 – ongoing JATIT & LLS.Descriptor points; Fingerprint; Image pattern; Matching score; Minutiae; SURFSahu, D., Shrivas, R., Fingerprint Recognition Using Minutiae Based Matching for Identification and Verification (2015) International Journal of Science and Research, 5 (5), pp. 1710-1715; Kumar, R., Chandra, P., Hanmandlu, M., Rotation Invariant Fingerprint Matching Using Local Directional Descriptors (2014) International Journal of Computational Intelligent Studies, 3 (4), pp. 292-319; Saini, P.H., Rakesh, S., Perspective of Fingerprint Recognition Using Robust Local Feature (2015) ” International of Science and Research, 4 (6), pp. 2428-2433; Kim, J.K., Chae, S.H., Lim, S.J., Pan, S.B., Moon, D., Performance Analysis of Hybrid Fingerprint Matching Methods (2008) 2Nd International Conference on Future Generation Communication and Networking., IEEE, pp. 66-69; Rajkumar, R., Hemachandran, K., A Robust Orientation-Independent Fingerprint Matching Technique (2016) Journal of Contemporary Engineering Science, 9 (26), pp. 1283-1296; Shakthi Pooja, R., Swetha, S., Alice, K., Robust Fingerprint Matching Using Ring Based ZERNIKE Moments: A Survey.” International Journal of Engineering Science and Research (2017) Technology, 6 (3), pp. 329-340; Patil, S.S., Chandal, G.S., Gupta, R., Fingerprint Image Enhancement Techniques and Performance Evaluation of the SDG and FFT Fingerprint Enhancement Techniques (2012) International Journal of Computer Technology and Electronics Engineering, 2 (2), pp. 184-189; Gayathri, S., Sridhar, V., (2016) Implementation of Fingerprint Recognition System on FPGA, , In Proceeding of IMCIC-ICSIT; Xiaoqi Peng, Y.Z., SIFT Based Low Quality Fingerprint LSH Retrieving and Recognition Method (2015) International Journal of Signal Processing, Image Processing and Pattern Recognition, 8 (8), pp. 263-272; Al-Asadi, T.A., Ahmed, J.O., Object detection and recognition by using enhanced Speeded Up Robust Feature (2016) International Journal of Computer Science and Network Security, 16 (4), pp. 66-71; Surender Singh, M., Enhanced the Fingerprint Matching Using BRISK, SURF and MSER” (2016) International Journal of Advance Research in Computer Science and Management Studies, 4 (7); Nanni, L., Lumini, A., A Hybrid Wavelet-Based Fingerprint Matcher (2007) Journal of Pattern Recognition, 40 (11), pp. 3146-3151; Maltoni, D., Maio, D., Jain, A.K., Prabhakar, S., (2009) Handbook of Fingerprint Recognition, , Springer- Verlag, Berlin, Heidelberg; Montoya Zegarra, J.A., Leite, N.J., da Silva Torres, R., Wavelet-based fingerprint image retrieval (2009) Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics, 227 (2), pp. 294-307; Guesmi, H., Trichili, H., Alimi, A.M., Solaiman, B., Curvelet Transform-Based Features Extraction for Fingerprint Identification (2012) Biometrics Special Interest Group (BIOSIG), Biosig-Proceedings of the International Conference of the IEEE, Pp. 1-5; Li, J., Yau, W.Y., Wang, H., Combining Singular Points and Orientation Image Information for Fingerprint Classification (2007) Journal of Pattern Recognition, 41 (1), pp. 353-366; Kant, C., Nath, R., Reducing Process-Time for Fingerprint Identification System (2009) International Journals of Biometric and Bioinformatics, 3 (1), pp. 1-9; Sanjekar, P.S., Dhabe, “Fingerprint Verification Using Haar Wavelet”, 2nd International Conference on Computer Engineering and Technology (2010) IEEE, 3, pp. 361-365; Dubey, R.K., Jonathan, V.L.L., Thing, “Fingerprint Liveliness Detection (2016) Information Forensics and Security, 11 (7); Akter, U.H., Speeded up Robust Feature Extraction and Matching for Fingerprint Recognition (2015) 2Nd International Conference on Electrical Engineering and Information & Communication Technology, , ICEEICT, IEEE; Jain, A.K., Feng, J., Nandakumar, K., Fingerprint Matching”, Handbook of Biometric (2010) IEEE, pp. 36-44; Tukur, A., Fingerprint Recognition and Matching Using Matlab (2015) International Journal of Engineering and Science, 4 (2), pp. 1-6; Dexing Zhong, R.Z., Han, J., Fingerprint Identification Using SIFT Based Minutia Descriptors and Improved All Descriptors-Pair Matching (2013) Sensors Journal, 13, pp. 3142-3156; Swapnali, B., Vijay, K., H.

Nodes that are near to the sink node consume more energy as all biomedical packets are aggregated through these nodes when communicated to the sink node. Each biosensor node in a wireless body sensor network (WBSN) such as electrocardiogram (ECG), should provide accurate biomedical data due to the paramount importance of patient information. We propose a technique to minimize energy consumed by biosensor nodes in the bottleneck zone for WBSNs, which applies the coordinated duty cycle algorithm (CDCA) to all nodes in the bottleneck zone. Superframe order selection in CDCA is based on real traffic and the priority of the nodes in the WBSN. Furthermore, we use a special case of network coding, called random linear network coding (RLNC), to encode the biomedical packets to improve reliability through calculating the probability of successful reception at the sink node. It can be concluded that CDCA outperforms other algorithms in terms of energy saving as it achieves energy savings for most biosensor nodes in WBSNs. RLNC employs relay nodes to achieve the required level of reliability in WBSNs and to guarantee that the biomedical data is delivered correctly to the sink node. © 2018 IEEE.Duty cycle (DC); energy consumption; network coding (NC); reliability; wireless body sensor network (WBSN)Biosensors; Body sensor networks; Codes (symbols); Electrocardiography; Encoding (symbols); Energy conservation; Energy utilization; IEEE Standards; Linear networks; Medical applications; Network coding; Reliability; Wireless sensor networks; Biomedical data; Duty-cycle; IEEE 802.15 Standards; Patient information; Random Linear Network Coding; Superframe orders; Wireless body sensor networks; Wireless body sensor networks (WBSN); Sensor nodesThotahewa, K.M.S., Redoute, J.-M., Yuce, M.R., (2014) Ultra Wideband Based Wireless Body Area Networks, , New York, NY, USA: Springer; Iftikhar, M., Al-Elaiwi, N., Aksoy, M.S., Performance analysis of priority queuing model for low power wireless body area networks (WBANs) (2014) Procedia Comput.

A carefully designed experimental program was conducted to investigate this issue. The results were utilized to define schematically the general geometric configurations of the constitutive interface shear surface (CISS) in the three-dimensional domain of surface roughness, surface hardness, and interface shear coefficient. The proposed CISS provides a robust mean to understand the coupling effect of continuum surface roughness and hardness on the interface shear behaviour.

So far, there has been no research on burnout among primary school teachers in Basrah, Iraq. Aim: We aimed to determine the prevalence and predisposing factors of self-reported burnout among primary school teachers in Basrah. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study in 32 governmental primary schools during November 2014–February 2015. A self-administered questionnaire was used to collect sociodemographic and work-related data using the Oldenburg Burnout Inventory. Results: Of 800 questionnaires distributed, 706 (88.3%) were completed; 58.4% were from women. The prevalence of burnout was 24.5% (95% CI: 21.5–27.8). A statistically significant association was found between burnout and age, sex and marital status. Work-related factors that showed significant association with burnout were: work overload, problems related to career advancement, high number of students per class and student misbehaviour. Conclusion: Burnout is an important health problem among primary school teachers in Basrah. A number of risk factors, particularly those related to work, are amenable to modification since they are related to the education policy. © 2018, World Health Organization.

Fractional flow reserve is currently the gold standard method to determine whether coronary lesions are functionally significant, and is used to guide revascularization. There are however several other physiological measurements that have been proposed as alternatives to the fractional flow reserve. This review aims to comprehensively discuss physiological indices that can be used in the cardiac catheterisation laboratory to determine the functional significance of coronary lesions. We will focus on their advantages and disadvantages, and the current evidence supporting their use. © 2017Coronary flow reserve; Coronary physiology; Fractional flow reserve; Resting physiological indicesadenosine; dobutamine; glyceryl trinitrate; iomeprol; nicorandil; nitroprusside sodium; regadenoson; angiography; area under the curve; coronary artery blood flow; coronary artery obstruction; coronary artery pressure; coronary flow reserve; cost effectiveness analysis; diagnostic accuracy; Doppler flowmetry; fractional flow reserve; health care cost; heart catheterization; heart cycle; heart infarction; human; hyperemia; ischemic heart disease; major adverse cardiac event; microangiopathy; myocardial perfusion imaging; percutaneous coronary intervention; positron emission tomography; practice guideline; priority journal; revascularization; Review; scintigraphy; sensitivity and specificity; thermodilution; vascular resistanceadenosine, 58-61-7; dobutamine, 34368-04-2, 52663-81-7, 49745-95-1, 61661-06-1; glyceryl trinitrate, 55-63-0, 80738-44-9; iomeprol, 78649-41-9; nicorandil, 65141-46-0; nitroprusside sodium, 14402-89-2, 15078-28-1; regadenoson, 313348-27-5Kern, M.J., Lerman, A., Bech, J.W., De Bruyne, B., Eeckhout, E., Fearon, W.F., Physiological assessment of coronary artery disease in the cardiac catheterization laboratory: a scientific statement from the American Heart Association Committee on Diagnostic and Interventional Cardiac Catheterization, Council on Clinical Cardiology (2006) Circulation, 114 (12), pp. 1321-1341; Toth, G.G., Johnson, N.P., Jeremias, A., Pellicano, M., Vranckx, P., Fearon, W.F., Standardization of fractional flow reserve measurements (2016) J.

As a result, the use of AM to produce Al matrix Composites (AMCs) which have superior properties to their castable counterparts is an emerging area of research. In this paper, micro TiB2 particles were decorated to the surface of larger AlSi10Mg powder particles to create feedstocks through the ‘satelliting’ method. TiB2/AlSi10Mg composites were then successfully fabricated by Direct Metal Deposition (DMD) with a uniform distribution of the reinforcing TiB2 particles observed. Results show that macro agglomerations of TiB2 particles decrease significantly with decreasing traverse speed and TiB2 content. Porosity is also shown to decrease markedly with increasing traverse speed for this material feedstock. The hardness of deposits is shown to increase with addition of TiB2 content, which implies improvement of material strength. © 2017Additive manufacturing; AlSi10Mg; Aluminium alloys; Direct metal deposition; Metal matrix composites; TiB23D printers; Aluminum; Aluminum alloys; Aluminum compounds; Deposition; Feedstocks; Magnesium compounds; Manufacture; Metallic matrix composites; Metals; Powder metals; Silicon compounds; Al matrix composites; AlSi10Mg; Direct metal deposition; Material strength; Powder particles; TiB2; Traverse speed; Uniform distribution; Titanium compoundsNational Natural Science Foundation of China, NSFC: 51401033, 51475380This work was partially supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (Grant No. 51475380 and 51401033 ).Brandl, E., Heckenberger, U., Holzinger, V., Buchbinder, D., (2012) Mater.

Calcination treatment was applied to produce the hydroxyapatite powders from Camelus bone as an eco-friendly and inexpensive source. X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Raman spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) with energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDS), and atomic force microscopy (AFM) were carried out to characterize the synthesized powder. XRD results showed that material obtained at calcination temperature (1000 °C) is a HAp according to (ICDD 00-024-0033) pattern in a 1.6557 Ca/P molar ratio and the chemical composition is Ca5(PO4)3(OH). The FTIR and Raman spectra confirm the formation of HAp by the presence of peaks corresponding to (PO4)3− and OH− groups, which are of great importance in HAp molecules. The experimental results of FESEM and AFM showed that the shape of the hydroxyapatite particles was irregular with the particle size ranging from 79 nm to 0.9 μm. © 2017, Australian Ceramic Society.Calcination process;

In this paper, we estimate the moments of the selected population under asymmetric scale invariant loss function. We investigate risk-unbiased, consistency and admissibility of the natural estimators for the moments of the selected population. Finally, the risk-bias’s and risks of the natural estimators are numerically computed and compared for k= 2, 3. © 2016, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.Asymmetric scale invariant loss function; Estimation following selection; Pareto distribution; Risk unbiasedAl-Mosawi, R.R., Shanubhogue, A., Vellaisamy, P., Average worth estimation of the selected subset of Poisson populations (2012) Statistitcs, 46 (6), pp. 813-831; Arshad, M., Misra, N., Estimation after selection from exponential populations with unequal scale parameters (2015) Stat Papers; Arshad, M., Misra, N., Vellaisamy, P., Estimation after selection from gamma populations with unequal known shape parameters (2015) J Stat Theory Pract, 9 (2), pp. 395-418; Bahadur, R.R., Goodman, A.L., Impartial decision rules and sufficient statistics (1952) Ann Math Stat, 23, pp. 553-562; Brewster, J.F., Zidek, Z.V., Improving on equivariant estimators (1974) Ann Stat, 2, pp. 21-38; Golparver, L., Karimnezhad, A., Parsian, A., Optimal rules and robust Bayes estimation of a Gamma scale parameter (2013) Metrika, 76, pp. 595-622; Hoque, Z., Wesolowski, J., Khan, S., Observed data based estimator and both observed data and prior information based estimator under asymmetric losses (2007) Am J Math Manag Sci, 27 (1-2), pp. 93-110; Kumar, S., Gangopadhyay, A.K., Estimating parameters of a selected Pareto population (2005) Stat Methodol, 2, pp. 121-130; Kumar, S., Mahapatra, A.K., Vellaisamy, P., Reliability estimation of the selected exponential populations.

The benzene rings were threaded by a magnetic flux that changes over time. The quantum interference effect was considered as the basic idea in the rectification action, the para and meta configurations were investigated. All the calculations are performed by using steady-state theoretical model, which is based on the time-dependent Hamiltonian model. The electrical conductance and the electric current are considered as DC output signals of half-wave and full-wave molecular rectifiers. The finding in this work opens up the exciting potential to use these molecular rectifiers in molecular electronics. © 2017 Elsevier B.V.Full-wave molecular rectifier; Half-wave molecular rectifier; Quantum interference effect; Single benzene moleculeBenzene; Molecules; Quantum interference devices; Rectifying circuits; Benzene molecules; Benzene ring; Electrical conductance; Molecular rectifier; Output signal; Quantum interference effects; Theoretical modeling; Time-dependent Hamiltonians; Electric rectifiersAviram, A., Ratner, M.A., (1974) Chem.

Researchers have attempted to overcome this by thermal management in the process and through the formulation of new alloys. A novel material preparation method “satelliting” was used in combination with DMD to improve the microstructure of the deposited alloys. Three feedstocks of Ti-15Mo, including a satellited feedstock, a blend of Ti/Mo (150 μm) and blended Ti/Mo (3 μm), were prepared and used for DMD of Ti-15Mo. Fine equiaxed grains and near-equiaxed grains distributed uniformly were found in the deposited sample from satellited feedstock, while the samples from blended Ti/Mo (150 μm) and Ti/Mo (3 μm) are dominated by larger near-equiaxed grains and epitaxial columnar grains, respectively. The effect of the nucleation was verified by combinatory analysis of unmelted Mo particles. This demonstrates a new route to the manufacture of components through DMD which produces applicable microstructures directly from the build. © 2017 Elsevier B.V.Direct metal deposition; Microstructure; Nucleation; Satelliting; Titanium alloyBinary alloys; Deposition; Feedstocks; Microstructure; Molybdenum; Nucleation; Current limitation; Direct metal deposition; Equi-axed grains; Fine equiaxed grains; Micro-structural; Novel materials; Nucleation mechanism; Satelliting; Titanium alloysNational Natural Science Foundation of China, NSFC: 51401033; National Basic Research Program of China (973 Program): 2016YFB0700301, 2016YFB1100103This work was supported National Natural Science Foundation of China (No. 51401033 ), National Key Research and Development Program of China (No. 2016YFB1100103 , No. 2016YFB0700301 ).Zhu, Y.Y., Tian, X.J., Li, J., Wang, H.M., (2015) Mater.

Two scenarios are investigated; in the first scenario, it is assumed that the system employs distance-based fractional power control with no multicell coordination. For the second scenario, we assume the system implements multicell coordinated beamforming so as to cancel inter-cell interference. For both scenarios, the BSs are assumed to randomly uniformly distributed in the area according to Poisson point process. Using tools from stochastic geometry, tractable, analytical expressions for coverage probability and effective capacity are derived for both scenarios. Numerical results reveal that for a system with stringent delay quality of service (QoS) constraints, i.e. (traffic delay is intolerable), best performance can be achieved by suitably adopting fractional power strategy when transmitting to the users, while constant power allocation performs better than all other power allocation strategies when the delay QoS constraints get loose (tolerable delay). For coverage probability, a fractional power control is better than constant power and channel inversion power strategies for low signal-to-interference plus noise ratio (SINR) thresholds, while the constant power strategy performs better than others in high SINR thresholds. © 2013 IEEE.Beamforming; coordinated multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO); coverage probability; effective capacity; fractional power control; stochastic geometryBeamforming; Geometry; MIMO systems; Probability; Quality control; Quality of service; Signal interference; Signal to noise ratio; Spurious signal noise; Stochastic systems; Wave interference; Capacity planning; Coverage probabilities; Delays; Downlink; Effective capacity; Fractional power; MIMO communication; Stochastic geometry; Power control(2011) Cisco Visual Networking Index: Global Mobile Data Traffic Forecast Update, 2010-2015, , Cisco Cisco, San Jose, CA, USA, White Paper, Feb; (2009) 3GPP LTE Release 10&Beyond (LTE-Advanced), , http://www.3gpp.org/, 3GPP; Baldemair, R., Evolving wireless communications: Addressing the challenges and expectations of the future (2013) IEEE Trans.

Solar energy is likely to be the energy of the future and solar ponds, in particular, salinity gradient solar ponds (SGSP), facilitate simple and cost-effective thermal energy collection and storage. In this study; the influence of varying the thicknesses of the zones present in a salinity gradient solar pond on the temperatures of the upper convective zone (UCZ) and the lower convective zone (LCZ) is investigated. The study finds that thickness variation of the zones within the pond has a considerable impact on the temperature of the LCZ while it has a small effect on the temperature of the UCZ. The optimal thicknesses of the UCZ and the non-convective zone (NCZ) have been found to be 0.2 and 2 m respectively. The results also show that the type of application plays a substantial role in determining the depth of the LCZ, and that temperature of this zone varies with the rate of heat extraction. A period of no heat extraction is required to allow the pond to warm up and the length of this period depends on the depth of the LCZ, the type of application coupled with the pond, and the rate of heat extraction. It was found that the SGSP could be deeper with less surface area, and still suitable for applications that require low-grade heat. These findings could form the basis of future studies regarding the performance and financial viability of the overall depth of SGSPs. © 2017 Elsevier LtdCost effectiveness; Extraction; Fossil fuels; Gas emissions; Greenhouse gases; Lakes; Solar energy; Convective zone; Energy collection; Financial viability; Heat extraction; Lower convective zones; Nonconvective zone; Salinity gradient solar ponds; Thickness variation; Solar pondsKhalilian, M., Assessment of the overall energy and exergy efficiencies of the salinity gradient solar pond with shading effect (2017) Sol.

This paper explores the feasibility of gel solar ponds as a source of renewables, using theoretical evaluation. This could be of critical future utilization in areas such as desalination, where the gel solar pond could in effect be a means to deliver fresh water in the Middle East and other regions where water scarcity is predicted to become an increasingly critical issue to resolve. This study explores all aspects of the gel solar pond's functioning, including optimal thicknesses for its different layers, and explores its strengths and weaknesses. In this study; temperature profiles in the upper convective zone (UCZ) and lower convective zone (LCZ) of a gel pond are investigated. The impact of the thickness of the pond's layers on the temperatures of these zones was also investigated. The cost of the gel pond was calculated and compared with that of the salinity gradient solar pond (SGSP) for a particular application, the multi-effect desalination (MED), which is frequently used to desalinate sea water. The results showed that the gel pond could supply thermal energy to applications requiring low-grade temperatures, and that temperatures in the LCZ of the gel pond could reach values similar to those achieved in the SGSP. Varying the thicknesses of the gel layer and the LCZ affects the temperature of the storage zone. The optimal thickness of the upper water layer and the gel layer was found to be 0.05 and 0.9 m respectively, while the optimal thickness of the storage zone depends on the particular application for which the pond is being used in each case. The results also show that a gel pond normally costs more than a SGSP. This study illustrates that gel solar ponds can offer solutions to some of the challenges posed by the SGSP; however, difficulties relating to cost and labour decrease their potential exploitation. Gel ponds can be seen as a viable alternative to SGSPs only if cheap and environmentally friendly polymers are used to form the gel layer. © 2017 Elsevier LtdGel ponds; Solar energy; Solar pondsCosts; Desalination; Lakes; Ponds; Seawater; Solar energy; Critical issues; Different layers; Lower convective zones; Multi-effect desalination; Optimal thickness; Salinity gradient solar ponds; Temperature profiles; Theoretical evaluation; Solar pondsAlcaraz, A., Valderrama, C., Cortina, J.L., Akbarzadeh, A., Farran, A., Enhancing the efficiency of solar pond heat extraction by using both lateral and bottom heat exchangers (2016) Sol.

Dept., College of Engineering, Thi-Qar University, IraqExperimental; and numerical investigation of three dimensional turbulent flow and heat transfer; inside a rectangular channel equipped with array of winglet vortex generators. Three pairs array of winglet vortex generators of different geometrical configuration as rectangular , triangular , semi circle and parabolic are considered. The array of winglet vortex generators is formed and distributed on the bottom hot surface with a facility for changing the angle of attack from (0° to 60°). ANSYS Fluent C ode (15.0) based on a fi nite volume method is used to obtain the numerical results while a k-? turbulence model is used to model the tur bulent.The Reynolds number range is from 10000 to 50,000 under a constant heat flux boundary condition.. Two cases of winglet vortex generators array are included. The first case is anti stream common flow up. The second case is the combined anti and with stream common flow up. The two cases are tested for different values of angle of attack, the stream wise and span wise position between the vortex and Reynolds number. The obtained results show that the suggested arrangement of common ;flow up (anti and with stream) for vortex generator offers superior in heat transfer enhancement and overall thermal performance rated by 240% and 170% respectively. In addition, A signification increase in heat transfer enhancement , and overall thermal performance is found as the angle of attack and the positions between vortex generator increases. © February 2018 IJENS.CFD; Turbulent channel flow; Winglet vortex generatorsCaliskan, S., Experim ental investigation of heat tran sfer inachan nel with new winglet-ty pe vortex generators (2014) Int ernational Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer, 78, pp. 604-614; Fiebig, M., Kallweit, P., Mitra, N.K., Tiggelbeck, S., Heat transfer enhancement and drag by longitudinal vortex generators in channel flow (1991) Exp.

These different cases (roughened and smooth bottom walls) are considered at various clockwise and anticlockwise rotational speeds, -5 ≤ Ω ≤ 5, and Reynolds numbers of 5000 and 10 000. The top and bottom walls of the lid-driven cavity are differentially heated, whilst the remaining cavity walls are assumed to be stationary and adiabatic. A standard k-ϵ model for the Unsteady Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes equations is used to deal with the turbulent flow. The heat transfer improvement is carefully considered and analysed through the detailed examinations of the flow and thermal fields, the turbulent kinetic energy, the mean velocity profiles, the wall shear stresses, and the local and average Nusselt numbers. It has been concluded that artificial roughness can strongly affect the thermal fields and fluid flow patterns. Ultimately, the heat transfer rate has been dramatically increased by involving the introduced artificial rips. Increasing the cylinder rotational speed or Reynolds number can enhance the heat transfer process, especially when the wall roughness exists. © 2018 Author(s).Computational fluid dynamics; Cylinders (shapes); Heat transfer coefficients; Kinetic energy; Kinetics; Mixed convection; Reynolds number; Shear flow; Shear stress; Turbulent flow; Heat Transfer enhancement; Heat transfer process; Mean velocity profiles; Mixed convection heat transfers; Numerical investigations; Turbulent kinetic energy; Unsteady mixed convection; Unsteady reynolds averaged navier-stokes equations; Navier Stokes equationsChatterjee, D., Mondal, B., Halder, P., Hydromagnetic mixed convective transport in a vertical lid-driven cavity including a heat conducting rotating circular cylinder (2014) Numer.

Many mechanisms for tuning QE are examined. The first mechanism is doping the QD layer only, which is the case of CdSe, and it gives high QE. The second one is doping the bulk layer in addition to QDs, and it gives low QE but at a wide bandwidth, as in TiO2∕MgZnO QD solar cells. Changing QD size is also another mechanism that can tune QE and its spectrum. The structures studied cover the range of 120–370 nm, which is important in photodetecting applications. © 2018 Optical Society of America.Cadmium compounds; Efficiency; Nanocrystals; Photodetectors; Selenium compounds; Semiconductor quantum dots; Solar cells; Titanium compounds; Titanium dioxide; CdSe/ZnO; Junction depth; Photodetecting applications; Quantum dot solar cells; Wide bandwidth; Quantum efficiencyLi, Y., Lv, K., Ho, W., Dong, F., Wu, X., Xia, Y., Hybridization of rutile TiO2 (rTiO2) with g-C3N4 quantum dots (CN QDs): An efficient visible-light-driven Z-scheme hybridized photocatalyst (2017) Appl.

These ortho substituents lead to two atropisomers, cis and trans, for each compound, which do not interconvert in solution under ambient conditions; even at high temperatures, isomerization takes several hours (half-life 15 h at 140 °C for SAc in C2Cl4D2). All the S2 compounds exhibit two conductance groups, and comparison with a monothiolated (S1) compound shows the higher group arises from a direct Au-porphyrin interaction. The lower conductance group is associated with the S-to-S pathway. When the binding group is SMe, the difference in junction length distribution reflects the difference in S-S distance (0.3 nm) between the two isomers. In the case of SAc, there are no significant differences between the plateau length distributions of the two isomers, and both show maximal stretching distances well exceeding their calculated junction lengths. Contact deformation accounts for part of the extra length, but the results indicate that cis-to-trans conversion takes place in the junction for the cis isomer. The barrier to atropisomerization is lower than the strength of the thiolate Au-S and Au-Au bonds, but higher than that of the Au-SMe bond, which explains why the strain in the junction only induces isomerization in the SAc compound. © 2017 American Chemical Society.Binary alloys; Bins; Chlorine compounds; Gold alloys; Isomerization; Isomers; Plants (botany); Porphyrins; Ambient conditions; Break junctions; Contact deformation; High temperature; Length distributions; Mechanochemicals; Single molecule conductance; Stm break junctions; Gold compounds; gold; porphyrin; Article; atropisomerization; cis isomer; conductance; conformation; half life time; isomerization; molecular interaction; scanning tunneling microscopy; scanning tunneling microscopy break junction technique; trans isomergold, 7440-57-5; porphyrin, 24869-67-8Seventh Framework Programme, FP7: 606728; Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council, EPSRC: EP/D07665X/1, EP/K030108/1, EP/M005046/1, EP/M014169/1, EP/M014452/1, EP/M016110/1, EP/M029522/1, EP/N017188/1, P/M029522/1; European Commission, EC; Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad, MINECO: MAT2014-57915-R, SEV-2016-0686; Seventh Framework Programme, FP7R.J.N., S.H., E.L., and A.H. acknowledge the UK Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) for the funding of this research under grant numbers EP/M014169/1, P/M029522/1, and EP/M005046/1.

Records included weights at birth and weaning and in ages of 6, 9 and 12 months for the three genetic groups above. We aimed to study the effect of the genetic group on the lamb’s weights at different ages and the effects of the hybrid vigor resulting from the crossing of local awassi sheep with Assaf sheep to the traits of the weights in ages from birth to one year old. The results showed that the genetic group had a significant effect (p≤0.01) in all the studied traits while the effect of hybrid vigor was not significant for all studied traits, but it was similar to some previous studies, with 10.36, 12.20, 5.80, 6.49 and 4.92 % for weights at birth, weaning, 6 months, 9 month and 12 month respectively. ©2009-2018, JGPT.

Which led to the need to develop successful practices for supply chain and complementary to the organization's strategy in order to achieve competitive advantage. The study used the analytical descriptive approach as a method to study the problem under study. due to the limited study society, it consists of (65) managers in different administrative units of the managers of divisions and units, The present study included all members of the community, A total of (45) valid questionnaires were obtained for statistical analysis, In order to process the data, a set of statistical methods was used in the statistical program (SPSS.v.18). The research has been based on a set of conclusions importantly, the supply chain is part of the value chain that deals with key activities as well as the impact of practices chain practices in competitive advantage. A number of recommendations have been made, most importantly, the need to build long-term relationships with suppliers and the trend towards establishing partnerships as well as the need to adopt competitive standards by the management of the factory in the selection of processors (cost, quality, responsiveness and delivery speed). © 2018, Institute of Advanced Scientific Research, Inc..

It is highly expressed in type 1 immune cells such as Th1, NK and NKT. To assess T-bet expression in 30 Urinary bladder carcinoma biopsy (UBC) and 10 benign tumor (BT) control cases using immunohistochemistry. T-bet expression was assessed by using immunohistochemistry in tissues specimens. Immunostaining results showed that theexpression of T-bet was elevated in patient with Bladder cancer compare to benign control (24/30 (80%), 4/10(40%), respectively with significantly difference (p £ 0. 05), and its expression was strongly positive and elevated in bladder cancer patients investigated with high-grade compared to the bladder cancer patients investigated with low-grade. Also, the expression of T-bet was significantly higher in advance stages or invasive (T2 ), than the superficial bladder tumors (T2 ≤) (p ≤ 0. 05). The current data proposed that the expressionof T-bet may be associated with high clinico pathological stages and grades in bladder cancer tissues for Iraqi patients. © 2018 Connect Journal.Bladder cancer; T helper 1; T-betAl-Wadi, F.N., (2011) Bacteriological and immunological study in patient of urinary bladder cancer before surgical and chemotherapy treatment, , M.

An experimental study using two-electrode method has been conducted to evaluate the resistivity of Portland cement concrete. Internal and external electrodes were varied in order to understand effect of the electrodes configuration, where carbon fibre (CF) sheets were employed as the internal electrodes and CF and copper sheets were used as external electrodes. Furthermore, frequency of applied current was varied from low to high, to identify the most suitable frequency that can be utilized for stable and reliable results. Optimised internal electrodes configuration and the current frequency of 10,000 Hz were used to measure the resistivity on a series of concrete cubes, which were made using three different water to cement ratios and four different chloride contents. © ICDCS 2018.

Therefore, the present study was carried out to investigate the protective effects of camel's milk against CCL4 induced toxicity in male rats. Materials and methods: Albino male rats (150-200 g) were divided into four groups of 6 rats: A control group fed only with diet and tap water for two weeks, the second group fed with standard diet and camel milk, the third group intoxicated with CCl4 on first two days of the experimental 14 days and fed with tap water and diet, and the fourth group intoxicated with CCl4 on first two days of the experimental 14 days and then treated with camel milk. Results: The results indicated that the CCl4 caused a significant increased in the level of serum total cholesterol(TC) , triglycerides(TG), very low density lipoprotein (VLDL)and low density lipoprotein(LDL), lactate dehydrogenase(LDH), creatine kinase(CK)and aspartate aminotransferase (AST). Also, there was a significant decreased in the level of serum high density lipoprotein (HDL).Protective activity of camel's milk against toxicity of CCl4 observed in decreasing of TC, TG, VLDL, LDL, LDH, CK, AST and increased in the HDL levels. Conclusion: These findings strongly prove that beneficial effects of Camel Milk clearly shown through the reduction of the CCl4 induced related damages and oxidative stress. © 2019 Journal of Global Pharma Technology.

However, despite advances in echnologies and diagnostic methods in the field of andrology, there remains a significant subset of these subfertile men who are classified as having unexplained male infertility. Oxidative stress (OS) is a consequence of an imbalance between the production of reactive oxygen species(ROS) and the body's antioxidant defense mechanisms. Oxidative stress (OS) is a common pathology seen in approximately half of all infertile men. It has been shown that reactive oxygen species (ROS) can lead to deleterious effects on a range of sperm parameters. Vitamins C and E are capable of reducing ROS levels and lipid peroxidation. The aim of study was to determine the level of lipid peroxidation as indicated by malondialdehyde (MDA) and vitamins (C,E) in serum and seminal plasma of unexplained male infertility men compare with fertile men. Serum and seminal plasma MDA was significantly increased in unexplained infertile (smoker and nonsmoker) groups when compared to fertile (smoker and nonsmoker) groups. The antioxidant serum vitamins (C,E) were significantly decreased in unexplained infertile (smoker and nonsmoker) groups when compared to fertile (smoker and nonsmoker) groups. The decrease in antioxidant levels appears to be mainly a consequence of increased oxidative stress. © 2018, Connect Journal.Antioxidants; E; Lipid peroxidation; MDA; Oxidative stress; Unexplained infertile men; Vitamin Calpha tocopherol; ascorbic acid; free radical; malonaldehyde; reactive oxygen metabolite; adult; antioxidant activity; Article; biochemical analysis; blood analysis; centrifugation; colorimetry; controlled study; disease severity; human; hypoxemia; lipid peroxidation; major clinical study; male; male infertility; oxidative stress; prevalence; prognosis; semen analysis; seminal plasma; smoking; spermatozoonalpha tocopherol, 1406-18-4, 1406-70-8, 52225-20-4, 58-95-7, 59-02-9; ascorbic acid, 134-03-2, 15421-15-5, 50-81-7; malonaldehyde, 542-78-9Abolfazl, A., Gholam-Ali, J.P., The Effect of Oxidative Stress and Antioxidants on Men Fertility (2013) Zahedan J.

Building any kind of digital modulators using soc type Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA), like ZYBO, depends heavily on how the carrier signal got generated since it consumes a lot of utilization recourses. This paper presents a new method of generating sinusoidal carrier signal based on Direct Digital Synthesizer (DDS) concept using small size Look Up Table (LUT). 64 samples of a quarter period of the sine wave signal were stored in a fixed point format in small LUT to generate the carrier at the desire frequency. The paper used Very high speed integrated circuit Hardware Descriptive Language (VHDL) without the help of DSP Builder Tools or XILINX System Generator. The suggested method was tested by building simple modulators like On-Off Keying (OOK) and Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK). Low utilization was achieved as compared to other implementation methods. © 2018, International University of Sarajevo.DDS; Digital modulators; LUT; Sinusoidal carrier generation; ZYBOMitola, J., Software radios-survey, critical evaluation and future directions (1992) in Proceedings of IEEE National Telesystems Conference, pp. 13/15-13/23; Mitola, J., The software radio architecture (1995) IEEE Communications Magazine, 33, pp. 26-38; Erdogan, C., Myderrizi, I., Minaei, S., FPGA Implementation of BASK-BFSK-BPSK digital modulators (2012) IEEE Antennas and Propagation Magazine, 54 (2), pp. 262-269. , April; Popescu, S.O., Gontean, A.S., Budura, G., BPSK system on Spartan 3E FPGA (2012) in Proceedings of IEEE 10th International Symposium on Applied Machine Intelligence and Informatics (SAMI), pp. 301-306; Quadri, F., Tete, A.D., FPGA implementation of digital modulation techniques (2013) in Proceedings of IEEE International Conference on Communications and Signal Processing (ICCSP), pp. 913-917. , Melmaruvathur, India; Al-Safi, A., Bazuin, B., 'FPGA based implementation of BPSK and QPSK modulators using address reverse accumulators (2016) in Proceedings of the 7th IEEE Annual Ubiquitous Computing, Electronics & Mobile Communication Conference, , Columbia University, New York City, USA, October 20-22; Al-Safi, A., Bazuin, B., Toward digital transmitters with ASK and QAM implementation examples in Proceedings of the 7th IEEE Annual Computing and Communication Workshop and Conference (CCWC), , Hotel Stratosphere, Las Vegas, USA,9-11 January 2017; Feher, K., including Digcom's proprietary 'know-how' and other US and international patents pending/in applications-in-process, , US Patents and Canadian Patents: ; 4,339,724; 4,644,565; 5,491,457; 5,784,402 1,211,5017; 1,130,871; 1,265,851 and post-patent improvements; Acar, Y.E., Yaldiz, E., A high resolution DDFS design on VHDL using Bipartite Table Method (2017) Periodical of Engineering and Natural Sciences, 5 (3), pp. 305-313. , November; Adiono, T., Ahmadi, N., Renardy, A.P., Fadila, A.A., Shidqi, N., A pipelined CORDIC architecture and its implementation in alldigital FM modulator-demodulator (2015) in Proceedings of IEEE 6th Asia Symposium on Quality Electronic Design (ASQED), pp. 37-42. , Kula Lumpur, Malaysia; Digilent FPGA Zybo Zynq-7000 ARM/FPGA SoC Trainer Board, , http://store.digilentinc.com/zybo-zynq-7000-arm-fpga-soc-trainer-board/; Durakovic, B., Design of Experiments Application, Concepts, Examples: State of the Art (2017) Periodical of Engineering and Natural Sciences, 5 (3), pp. 421-439. , NovemberAl-Safi, A.; Departement of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Iraq; email: ameansharea.ghazi@wmich.eduInternational University of Sarajevo23034521EnglishPeriod. eng. nat. sci.ArticleFinalAll Open Access, GoldScopus2-s2.0-85063731327

It is a method of computing where significantly scalable resources are delivered as services to customers using internet techniques. The task-scheduling in cloud computing system is used for selection of suitable resources for tasks execution by taking some constraints and parameters into consideration. The recent task-scheduling strategies of cloud computing focus on requirements of task resource for processing all tasks without considering the bandwidth, storage and memory. In this paper, we develop task-scheduling approach that aggregate the tasks into groups, which can meet users’ satisfaction. This approach depends on user demand of different resources that have different costs. We compared our approach with the traditional approach. The result proved that our method can significantly reduce the cost of bandwidth, memory and storage under the budget constraint scheduler. © Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2018.Bandwidth; Cloud computing; Cost; Cost priority; Task grouping; Task schedulingSelvarani, S., Sadhasivam, G.S., Improved cost-based algorithm for task scheduling in cloud computing (2010) IEEE International Conference on Computational Intelligence and Computing Research (ICCIC), pp. 1-5. , pp; Sheeja, Y.S., Jayalekshmi, S., Cost effective load balancing based on honey bee behaviour in cloud environment (2014) First International Conference Computational Systems and Communications (ICCSC), IEEE, pp. 214-219. , pp; Kumar, P., Verma, A., Independent task scheduling in cloud computing by improved genetic algorithm (2012) Int J Adv Res Comput Sci Softw Eng, 2 (5), pp. 111-114; Ru, J., Keung, J., An empirical investigation on the simulation of priority and shortest-job-first scheduling for cloud-based software systems (2013) 22Nd Australian Software Engineering Conference, IEEE, pp. 78-87; Zhang, J., Zhu, X., Ying, B., A task scheduling algorithm considering bandwidth competition in cloud computing (2013) International Conference on Internet and Distributed Computing Systems.

The region, which is the subject of the study, consists of group of seasonal valleys; most important among them are Abu Ghar, Qaseir, Sadir, Abu Ghuwair, Abu Hazeer, Al-Hawaimi,, Al- Ashali, Al-Ghanimi and Husam valleys. Most of them were made up of alluvial fans that can be used for agricultural investment, as well as the soils of valleys beds, depressions (playa), and the desert plain. What has currently been invested of them is only small and very limited area, less than) 0.5% (for wheat growing). This study classified the lands of the region into 7 land farms units, based on the qualities of soil, water, satellite images and the field survey. The study also relied on several criteria in its assessment of the nature of the soil and its suitability for agricultural investment, such as nature of the surface, the suitability of the hydrological characteristics and some physical and chemical properties of soil. It is clear that there are large areas that can be invested due to the nature of their climate, flat surface and soil thickness as well as the physical and chemical characteristics of soil suitable for most agricultural activities as being sandy and sandy loam and clay loam soils, as well as the availability of both surface water resources of seasonal valleys and ground water represented in Dammam, UMEr Radhuma, Tayarat and Hartha of depth (50-350 m). There is also a complex hydraulic connection with these aquifers. The water quality is good; it is carbonate at the recharge area, but salinity increases towards discharge areas. It has been shown that salinity of the soil and water increases to east and north east of the region involved, precisely at Slibat depression, where it changes into a sulphatic or chloridic type. This water requires good investment and management for the purpose of economic benefit. The area lacks permanent human settlement except for it has only few houses scattered here and there of those who worked on cultivation during the season of growing. © 2018 DAV College.

Little stochastic parameter information about the soil in Nasiriyah, which is in southern Iraq, is available. Methods: In this paper, the Scale Of Fluctuation (SOF) for the site soil is examined, which is suggested for construction of the refinery fuel station project as no random parametric quantity has been studied in this region. A Cone Penetration Test (CPT) was performed as part of the site investigation to a depth of 20 m in the vertical direction, and 24 CPTs were analyzed within the site. The spatial correlation was computed using four methods, including Single Exponent (SNE), Square Exponent (SQE), Cosine Exponent (CSE) and Second-Order Markov (SOM). Identification of the soil type depended on the most recent classification chart, which is based on CPT results. The spatial correlation was evaluated for the vertical direction considering the cone tip resistance (q c ) component. Three trend functions were applied to all CPT soundings, including linear, quadratic and cubic polynomials, which were utilized to transform the non-stationary data to stationary data. Three modes of soil were employed, including the eight-meter soil layer, a twelve-meter soil layer and the entire twenty meters of soil, which includes both layers. Results and Discussion: The mean values of SOF were 0.54 m, 0.53 m, and 1.73 m for soil layers 8 m, 12 m, and 20 m, respectively. The high value of the last mean is attributed to the 20 m of stratification in the ground. This study also indicates that the SOF decreases as the polynomial degree increases, which is due to enhanced fitting. The coefficient of variation (COV) for the SOF shows little variability for most of the studied soil cases. © 2018 Ressol R.

Simulations were conducted at the turbine's best efficiency point with a Reynolds number of 2.01×10- 7 . Water injection was admitted from the runner cone in the stream-wise direction. The aim of this process was to investigate the influence of water injection on the turbine performance and the pressure pulsation. The water injection did not affect the nominal value of the turbine's power generation. Straight vortex rope was observed at the centerline of the draft tube. Moreover, helix-shaped vortex ropes were obtained near the draft tube surface. The water injection expands the central vortex rope, but it did not suppress or disrupt the helix-shaped peripheral vortex rope near the draft tube surface. The pressure fluctuation became less regular after the water injection, but the fluctuation level remained similar.

Lagrangian coherent structures (LCS) are used to investigate the nonlinear vortex dynamics of flow past a single plate. The Finite-Time Lyapunov Exponent (FTLE) is calculated using the velocity data obtained from Large Eddy Simulations (LES). All simulations are conducted at Reynolds number of 50,000. LCS for a single plate is presented in this study to elucidate and comprehend highly turbulent flow interactions in these flows. The LCS is compared against most commonly used Eulerian structures which are contours of the vorticity and the Q-criterion. The FTLE fields reveal much clearer turbulent structures compared to the Eulerian structures. FTLE better describes the evolution of larger scale eddies. The Q-criterion of flows past an array of plates is also presented.

The air injection is applied over the peripheral surface on the draft tube. Mixture multiphase model is used to predict the spatial and temporal distribution of the air and the water. The simulation is conducted at the best efficiency point with a Reynolds number of 1.06×10 7 which is based on the rotation speed and the reference diameter of the runner. The vorticity is suppressed inside the draft tube, and the standard deviation of the power generation is decreased roughly 70% after aeration. The power generation is reduced by approximately 4-5% with peripheral aeration. Almost uniform dissolved oxygen concentration of 2-3 mg/l is observed in the radial direction near the outlet which is more than sufficient for wastewater treatment process.

The key mechanism behind the model is the active motion of the walls in line with the earlier model of Roberts. Our model is autonomous, nonlinear and is based on the partial differential equation describing the displacement of the wall in time and along the channel. A theoretical plane configuration is adopted for the walls at rest. For solving the equation we used the One-dimensional Integrated Radial Basis Function Network (1D-IRBFN) method. We demonstrated that different initial conditions always lead to the settling of pulse trains where an individual pulse has certain speed and amplitude controlled by the governing equation. A variety of pulse solutions is obtained using homogeneous and periodic boundary conditions. The dynamics of one, two, and three pulses per period are explored. The fluid mass flux due to the pulses is calculated. © EDP Sciences, 2018.Auto-pulses; Elastic walls; FluidBoundary conditions; Fluids; Radial basis function networks; Auto-pulses; Elastic walls; Governing equations; Initial conditions; Integrated radial basis functions; Numerical solution; Periodic boundary conditions; Semi-empirical modeling; Nonlinear equationsAhmed, F.Z., Strunin, D.V., Mohammed, M.G., Bhanot, R.P., Numerical solution for the uid ow between active elastic walls (2016) ANZIAM J.

The overlap-states leads to create echo signals in "0" bit slots and amplitude jitter in "1" bits slots too that can significant limit the system performance due to increasing in a Bit Error Rate (BER). In this thesis, the Power Spectral Density (PSD) of the intrachannel nonlinearity distortion of a chirped Gaussian pulses is investigated theoretically using the small perturbation technique and the statistical quantum description of square M-QAM systems. Additionally, we provided an analytical expression using the perturbation coefficient matrix Xlmn (ω) of PSD to estimate a Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR). We assumed that the noise is Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) and all transmitted signals undergo equal probability of distribution on coherent receiver where MATLAB programming are used to check out validity of analytical model. Our simulation shows that the intrachannel distortion is mitigated significantly by choosing of initial suitable parameters. Consequently, improving the SNR to acceptable values is achieved. © Medwell Journals, 2018.Gaussian pulses; Intrachannel; Intrachannel nonlinearity; M-QAM square systems; Parameters; Power Spectral Density (PSD)Agrawal, G.P., (2012) Fiber-Optic Communication Systems, p. 2053. , 4th Edn., John Wiley &Sons, Hoboken, New Jersey, USA; Bononi, A., Grellier, E., Serena, P., Rossi, N., Vacondio, F., Modeling nonlinearity in coherent transmissions with dominant interpulse-four-wave-mixing (2011) Proceedings of the 2011 37th European Conference and Exhibition on Optical Communication, pp. 1-3. , September 18-22, 2015, IEEE, Geneva, Switzerland; Chen, T., Li, K., Zuo, Y., Zhu, B., QAM adaptive measurements feedback quantum receiver performance (2015) J.

These problems arise from incorrect knowledge of how piles interact with different soils. In this study, the researcher propose solutions to such problems for improving the efficiency of pile foundations. The practical experience accumulated in the Republic of Belarus can also be useful for Iraq where similar ground conditions occur during construction. © Medwell Journals, 2018.Compression; Constmction; Foundation; Foundation; Geotechcs; Interaction; Jacking; Load; Pile; Resistance; Shear; Soil; Technology; Uplifting(1975) Instructions on the vibratory laying of concrete under water by the VAP method, , VSN-261-74, Ministry of Assembly and Special Construction Works, Russia; (2002) Design and construction of bored piles, , Guidance P 13-01 to building codes CNB 5.01.01-99, Minsk, Belarus; (2002) Design and organize the pile and wall in trench, , Guidance P 14-01 to building codes CNB 5.01.01-99, Minarchstruc RB, Minsk, Belarus; (2005) Designing and construction of injection anchor and piles, , Guidance P 18-04 to building codes CNB 5.01.01-99, Minarchstruc RB, Minsk, Belarus; (2006) Designing and construction of foundations formed from cast in place piles with compacted base, , Guidance P 19-04 to building codes CNB 5.01.01-99, Minarchstruc RB, Minsk, Belarus; (2009) Shanghai building collapses, nearly intact, , https://blogs.wsj.com/chinarealtime/2009/06/29/shanghai-building-collapses-nearly-intact/, The Wall Street Journal, New York, USA; (2012) Soil Fiald Tast Mathids Booilas, , RB Publisher, Minsk, Belarus; Grutman, M.S., (1969) Pile Foundations, p. 191. , Budivelnik Publisher, Kiev, Ukraine; Lapshin, F.K., (1987) Calculation of the Bases of Single Piles on a Vertical Load, p. 469. , Saratov University, Saratov; Mohammad, H.M., (1998) Buroinjection Hardening of the Foundations of Buildings and Structures under Reconstruction, p. 196. , BSPA, Minsk, Belarus; Nikitenko, M., Boiko, I., Use of polymer mixtures for soil stabilization in the bases of local highways during their reconstruction, repair and maintenance (2018) Architecture Constr, 1, pp. 45-49; Nikitenko, M.I., Klyuyko, A.A., (2006) Jet Technology in the Geotechnical Practice of Belarus, , SPbGASU, St. Petersburg, Russia; Nikitenko, M.I., Modern geotechnical technologies in construction and reconstruction in Belarus (2006) Build.

Abnormal operations may be related to fault in one of system components; sudden internal thermal noise or even missing the input signal and can be extended to the maneuver target tracking case. Whenever the abnormal operation is detected, we can start tracking the states in this mode of operation. So the main problem may be reformulated to be detection of the starting point of the abnormal operation. The numerical simulation for fault estimation of phosphor furnace in different conditions are used to show the effectiveness of the proposed approach. © 2018 InforMath Publishing GroupBayesian estimation; Interactive multiple model; Kalman filter fault estimation; Multi mode operationZhong, M., Ye, H., Ding, S.X., Wang, G., Donghua, Z., Fault detection filter for linear time-delay systems (2005) Nonlinear Dynamics and Systems Theory, 5 (3), pp. 273-284; Wu, H., Noe, F., A flat Dirichlet process switching model for Bayesian estimation of hybrid systems (2002) IEEE Transaction on Automatic Control, 15 (1), pp. 10-17; Ackerson, G., Fu, K., On state estimation in switching environments (2011) Procedia Computer Science, (4), pp. 1393-1402; Blom, H., Bar-Shalom, Y., The interacting multiple model algorithm for systems with Markovian switching coefficients (2001) IEEE Transaction on Automatic Control, 17, pp. 362-369; Minka, T., Expectation propagation for approximate Bayesian inference (2002) Proceedings of Uncertainty in Artificial Intelligence, 33 (8), pp. 780-783; Bar-Shalom, Y., Kirubasrajan, T., Li, X.R., (2002) Estimation with Applications to Tracking and Navigation, , Wiley, New York; Suzdaleva, E., Nagy, I., Recursive state estimation for hybrid systems (2012) Applied Mathematical Modelling, 36, pp. 1347-1358; Van Der Heijden, F., Duin, R.P.W., De Ridder, D., Tax, D.M.J., (2004) Classification, Parameter Estimation and State Estimation, , John Wiley & Sons; Bar-Shalom, Y., Fortmann, T.E., (1988) Tracking Data Association, , Academic Press; Hasan, A.H., Grachev, A.N., Adaptive α − Β−filter for target tracking using real time genetic algorithm Journal of Electrical and Control Engineering, 3 (4), pp. 32-38. , 203Hasan, A.H.; University of Sumer, Iraq; email: ali.husain@uos.edu.iqInforMath Publishing Group15628353EnglishNonlinear Dyn.

We concentrate our attention in the case when diffusion goes in the opposite direction of both the other forces, absorption and convection. In this situation, the interfaces may expand, shrink or remain stationary depending on the competition between these three factors. We focus on full classification of the problem on the initial development and asymptotics of the interfaces and local solutions near the interfaces for the reaction-diffusionconvection equation with compactly supported initial function.

The power transformer was connected with earth air heat exchanger to decrease the temperature of (oil, core, and coils) of transformer which will increase its efficiency for preventing the damage and/or failure. The case study used the weather conditions of Nasiriya city (Iraq) at 1July with 50°C as maximum ambient temperature and full electrical load of the power transformer. In addition to different pipe diameter, length of earth air heat exchanger and different air velocity entering to pipe. The results showed the temperature of (oil, core, and coils) for power transformer decreased with increase the pipe length and earth air heat exchanger depth underground. The air velocities inlet to earth air heat exchanger that used in the study were (2, 4, 6 m/s respectively)and the results showed the increasing of air velocity inlet to earth air heat exchanger should decrease the temperature of (oil, core, and coils) for power transformer and increase the thermal conductivity of oil. The study concluded when using earth air heat exchanger in the power transformer and performance of power transformer will be increasing and led to decrease the temperature of oil about (18.5°C).The results showed a significant convergence with previous researches. © 2018 Serbian Society of Heat Transfer Engineers.Coil; Cooling; Core; EAHE; Heat transfer; Oil; TransformerNazeer, W.A., In-situ Species, Temperature and Velocity Measurements in a Pulverized Coal Flame (1999) Combustion Sciences and Technology, 143 (2), pp. 63-77; Zhang, X., Wang, Z., Liu, Q., Jarman, P., Negro, M., Numerical investigation of oil flow and temperature distributions for ON transformer windings (2018) Applied Thermal Engineering, 130, pp. 1-9; Garelli, L., Rodriguez, G.R., Storti, M., Granata, D., Amadei, M., Rossetti, M., Reduced Model for the Thermo-Fluid Dynamic Analysis of a Power Transformer Radiator working in ONAF mode (2017) Applied Thermal Engineering, 124, pp. 855-864; Fernández, I., Delgado, F., Ortiz, F., Ortiz, A., Fernández, C., Renedo, C.J., Santisteban, A., Thermal degradation assessment of Kraft paper in power transformers insulated with natural esters (2016) Applied Thermal Engineering, 104, pp. 129-138; Kondrashova, Y.N., Khramshin, R.R., Nikolaev, A.A., Shurygina, G.V., Analysis of thermal state of power transformer of captive power plant, International Conference on Industrial Engineering (2015) Procedia Engineering, 129, pp. 832-838; Kim, M.G., Cho, S.M., Kim, J.K., Prediction and evaluation of the cooling performance of radiators used in oil-filled power transformer applications with non-direct and direct-oil-forced flow (2013) Experimental Thermal and Fluid Science, 44, pp. 392-397; Gastelurrutia, J., Ramos, J.C., Larraona, G.S., Rivas, A., Izagirre, J., Río, L., Numerical modelling of natural convection of oil inside distribution transformers (2011) Applied Thermal Engineering, 31 (4), pp. 493-505; Taghikhani, M.A., Gholami, A., Prediction of hottest spot temperature in power transformer windings with non-directed and directed oil-forced cooling (2009) Electrical Power and Energy Systems, 31 (7-8), pp. 356-364; Hosseini, R., Nourolahi, M., Gharehpetian, G.B., Determination of OD cooling system parameters based on thermal modeling of power transformer winding (2008) Simulation Modelling Practice and Theory, 16 (6), pp. 585-596; Akbari, M., Allahbakhshi, M., Mahmoodian, R., Heat Analysis of the Power Transformer Bushings in the Transient and Steady States Considering the Load Variations (2017) Applied Thermal Engineering, 121, pp. 999-1010; Garelli, L., Rodriguez, G.R., Storti, M., Granata, D., Amadei, M., Rossetti, M., Reduced Model for the Thermo-Fluid Dynamic Analysis of a Power Transformer Radiator working in ONAF mode (2017) Applied Thermal Engineering, 124, pp. 855-864; Zhang, X., Wang, Z., Liu, Q., Jarman, P., Negro, M., Numerical investigation of oil flow and temperature distributions for ON transformer windings (2018) Applied Thermal Engineering, 130, pp. 1-9; Practical specification of JOYSAN TURKISH TRANSFORMER, , www.joysantransformator.com, transformer final report.

Optical monitors are of special interest because they can be non-invasive. Among optical glucose sensors, fluorescent upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) have the advantage of good photostability, low toxicity, and exceptional autofluorescence suppression. However, to sense glucose, UCNPs normally need surface functionalization, and this can be easily affected by other factors in biological systems, and may also affect their ability for real-time sensing of both increasing and decreasing glucose levels. Here, we report YVO4: Yb3+, Er3+@Nd3+ core/shell UCNPs with Nd and Yb shell and GdVO4: Yb3+, Er3+@Nd3+ core/shell UCNPs with Nd and Yb shell that show sensitive, reversible, and selective optical glucose detection without the need for any surface functionalization or modifications. © 2018 Optical Society of America.Glucose; Glucose sensors; Neodymium; Real time systems; Ytterbium; Autofluorescence; Blood glucose monitoring; Optical glucose detection; Optical monitors; Photo-stability; Real time sensing; Surface Functionalization; Upconversion nanoparticles; Vanadium compoundsA-1261, A-1547; National Science Foundation, NSF: CHE-1609608; Office of Naval Research, ONR: N00014-16-1-2578, N00014-16-1-3054; King Abdulaziz City for Science and Technology, KACST; National Science Foundation, NSF; Government Council on Grants, Russian Federation; Higher Committee for Education Development in Iraq, HCEDTAMU CRI and GURI grants, National Science Foundation (Grant CHE-1609608); Office of Naval Research (Awards N00014-16-1-2578 and N00014-16-1-3054); Robert A.

Most of the proposed 3PAKE protocols use public keys to guarantee identities; however, the sharing of public keys may lead to various types of attacks, such as a man-in-the-middle attack, which allows an attacker to simply intercept and insert traffic traversing a network. In this paper, we briefly describe an updated three-party password-based authenticated key exchange protocol and analyse its security. The proposed TPAKE protocol does not share plain-text data. Data shared between the parties are either hashed or encrypted. Using the random oracle model, the security of the proposed TPAKE protocol is formally proven under the computational Diffie-Hillman assumption. Furthermore, the analyses included in this paper show that our protocol can ensure perfect forward secrecy and can also resist many types of common attacks.

The effects of prostaglandins on LH, FSH, testosterone secretion and semen quality of the male rats were investigated. PGE1 induced a significant decline in the level of LH, FSH and testosterone levels. PGE1 also induced significant decline in the testis, epididymal and seminal vesicle weights. Conclusion: Furthermore, PGE1 caused significant reduction in sperm count, and significant decline in the viable and malformed sperm percent. However, PGF2α did not affect these parameters. © 2018 Bentham Science Publishers.FSH; LH; Male; PGE1; PGF2α; Rats; Reproduction; TestosteronePreethi, R., Pavithra, I., Sethu, G., Role of prostaglandin in reproductive physiology (2017) Intern.

In the Provinces of Basrah, Dhi Qar and Maysan the buffalo represents the main source for survival of local people in marshlands. The paper shows the situation in these areas, remarking the main critical points for buffalo breeding development. A survey in 24 buffalo farms was carried out by the Department of University of Firenze to verify the situation of buffalo farming in southern Iraq (years 2014 2016). In particular the study shows problems related to the shortage of food for animals, to the lack of suitable structures and infrastructures, to the poor herd management by farmers. In the paper the main critical points, which compromise the success of the breeding, are pointed out, with particular reference to animal welfare, animal health and labour (care of animals and risks for workers). Solutions to mitigate the scarce results are indicated. In particular some practical interventions carried out during a project funded by Italian Agency for Cooperation and Development are presented and discussed. Such interventions refer mainly to the application of feeding racks, systems for a safe capture of the animals, plants and equipment for heat protection. As conclusion, also in difficult and poor areas like Iraqi marshes, a correct design and a right application of simple constructive and plant solutions, with little employment of technological resources, coupled with a good training of farmers, can give a contribution to solve problems in buffalo breeding. © 2018, Eesti Pollumajandusulikool.

Bioprinting technologies based on photopolymerization principles are being used make such structures. In this paper, the effect of functionalization time on the mechanical morphology, swelling and degradation characterization of cross-linked alginate hydrogel is investigated. Alginate, chemically-modified with methacrylate groups and different reaction times is considered, by dissolving functionalized alginate with 1.5% photoinitiator solution and crosslinked by ultraviolet (UV) light (8 mW/cm2). Results show that by increasing the functionalization time, it was possible to obtain alginate material with a high level of unsaturation resulting in a less porous structure with high mechanical properties and a reduction of swelling. The influence of increasing the prepolymer concentration, reaction time and the amount of photoinitiator (PI) on mechanical and biomimetic properties of resulting hydrogels led to increased mechanical stiffness when measured at 10% strain. The swelling ratio of Photocrosslinked alginate hydrogels was studied and initial findings link this behavior to functionalization reaction time.

This paper describes a novel plasma-assisted bio-extrusion system (PABS) to produce functional-gradient scaffolds. It comprises two pressure-assisted and a screw-assisted printing head and plasma jets. Hybrid scaffolds consisting of a synthetic biopolymer and a natural hydrogel, and full-layer N2 plasma modified polymeric scaffolds were produced to assess the system. Water contact angle and in vitro biological tests confirm that the plasma modification alters the hydrophilicity properties of synthetic polymers and promotes proliferation of cells, leading to homogeneous cell colonization. It is also demonstrated the capability to produce multi-material structures. The results suggest that PABS is a promising system for the fabrication of functionally-graded scaffolds.

Obtaining a short-term disease risk prediction and thereby offering medical recommendations reliably and accurately are challenging in teleheath systems. In this work, a novel medical recommender system is proposed based upon time series data analysis for diabetes patients. It uses three decomposition methods, i.e., dual-tree complex wavelet transform (DTCWT), fast Fourier transformation (FFT) and dual-tree complex wavelet transform-coupled fast Fourier transform (DWCWT-FFT), with least square-support vector machine (LS-SVM) for short-term disease risk prediction for diabetes disease patients which then generates appropriate recommendations on their need to take a medical test or not on the coming day based on the analysis of their medical data. A real-life time series dataset is used for experimental evaluation. The experimental results show that the proposed system yields very good recommendation accuracy and can effectively reduce the workload for diabetes disease patients in conducting daily body tests. © 2018, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.Decomposition methods; Diabetes disease patients; Recommender system; SVM; Telehealth; Time series predictionData handling; Decision making; eHealth; Expert systems; Fast Fourier transforms; Forecasting; Least squares approximations; Medical computing; Metadata; Partial discharges; Risk assessment; Support vector machines; Time series; Time series analysis; Trees (mathematics); Wavelet decomposition; Decomposition methods; Diabetes disease; Dual Tree Complex Wavelet Transform (DTCWT); Dual-tree complex wavelet transform; Fast fourier transformation (FFT); Least Square Support Vector Machine (LS-SVM); Telehealth; Time series prediction; Recommender systemskx201615; National Natural Science Foundation of China, NSFC: 61572036, 61672039, 61772034; Natural Science Foundation of Anhui Province: 1808085MF172; Shenzhen Technical Project: JCYJ20170307151733005, KQJSCX20170726103424709Acknowledgment.

Synchronization characteristics and the influence of parameter mismatches on synchronization performances are investigated. Results: The results indicate that the complete synchronization can be realized under suitable system parameters. Through numerically studying synchronization quality and the influence of parameter mismatches on synchronization, the delay time of the transmitter, the delay time of the receiver, transmission time, coupling strength, and gain stages number have significant impact on the synchronization quality. Conclusion: Calculations indicate that correlation coefficient can be enhanced by high coupling strength, small stages number and similar delay times. The synchronization quality is sensitive to stages number value. In comparison with coupling strength, the mismatch in delay times has significant impact on the synchronization quality. © 2018 Bentham Science Publishers.Negative optoelectronic feedback; Quantum cascade lasers; Rate equation model; Receiver laser; Synchronization; Transmitter laserChaos theory; Quantum cascade lasers; Transmitters; Complete synchronization; Correlation coefficient; Coupling strengths; Optoelectronic feedback; Parameter mismatches; Rate-equation models; Synchronization performance; Transmitter lasers; SynchronizationFaist, J., Capasso, F., Sivco, D.L., Sirtori, C., Hutchinson, A.L., Cho, A.Y., Quantum cascade laser (1994) Science, 264 (5158), pp. 553-556; Kohler, R., Tredicucci, A., Beltram, F., Beere, H.E., Linfield, E.H., Davies, A.G., Ritchie, D.A., Rossi, F., Terahertz semiconductor-heterostructure laser (2002) Nature, 417 (6885), pp. 156-159; Williams, B.S., Terahertz quantum-cascade lasers (2007) Nat.

In this study, the electronic, thermochemistry and vibrational properties of zigzag and armchair SWCNTs were investigated. Objective: Using these investigations, it is possible to obtain much more data to apply SWCNTs in medical science, industrial technologies and nanosensors applications. Methods: All the calculations are based on the Density Functional Theory (DFT) at the B3LYP/6-31G level through the Gaussian 09W program package. Results: The optimized structures, diameter, contour plots for electronic states (HOMO and LUMO), energy gaps, thermochemistry functions and vibrational intensities were performed and discussed. Conclusion: This study clarified the properties of SWCNTs are dependent on the diameter of the tube, i.e. the chrial vector (n, m). An addition, these results could help to design more efficient functional SWCNTs, and these properties play a key role for many applications. © 2018 Bentham Science Publishers.B3LYP; DFT; Energy gap; HOMO; IR spectra; LUMO; SWCNTsDensity functional theory; Design for testability; Energy gap; Medical computing; Software packages; Thermochemistry; Yarn; B3LYP; HOMO; IR spectrum; LUMO; SWCNTs; Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCN)Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, MHE&SR; Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, MHESRWe thank the Ministry of Iraqi Higher Education and Scientific Research for its support of sci- entific researches through the Iraqi Virtual Science Library (IVSL).We thank the Ministry of Iraqi Higher Education and Scientific Research for its support of sci-Iijima, S., Helical microtubules of graphitic carbon (1991) Nature, 354 (6348), pp. 56-58; Heinze, S., Tersoff, J., Martel, R., Derycke, V., Appenzeller, J., Avouris, P., Carbon nanotubes as Schottky barrier transistors (2002) Phys.

High rates authoritarianism and social restrictiveness, low rates of benevolence and community mental health ideology were noticed among nurses. Recommendations: These findings raise the importance of learning the nursing students and nurses about the stigma and the right attitudes towards mentally ill patients.

The prevalence of congenital malformations differs widely between countries. Objectives: To determine the types of congenital anomalies among neonates and to identify the possible risk factors associated with congenital anomalies. Patients and Methods: A case-control study was carried out during 3years period (from the 1st of January 2015 to the 15th of December 2017). One hundred seventy-two neonates with congenital anomalies admitted to neonatal intensive care unit in Bint Al-Huda Teaching Hospital were involved in the study as a case group. A total of 305 neonates without congenital anomalies were randomly selected from neonates admitted to the same hospital for reasons other than congenital anomalies and including in the study as a control group. Results: Neural tube defects are the predominant type of congenital anomalies (31.9%), followed by congenital heart diseases (14.5%), cleft lip and palate (6.9%), and upper and lower limbs deformity (5.9%). Both genders equally distributed among patient and control group p-value > 0.05. The higher percentages of multiple congenital anomalies were detected among low birth weight neonates (30.6%), premature neonates (24.5%), neonates of mothers with advance age (> 35 years) (33.3%), grand multiparas (27.8%), and women with pregestational diabetes (37.5%).There is a significant positive association of low birth weight and premature neonates, young maternal age, chronic maternal illness, father occupation, and family history with the congenital anomalies, p-value < 0.05. Mother and Father Age, and prematurity were independent risk factors for congenital anomalies (OR 8.470, 17.367, 6.606, respectively). There is a highly significant association between congenital malformations with periconceptional folic acid intake, p-value < 0.001, (OR 5.746). Conclusion: The commonest congenital anomalies are neural tube defects, followed by congenital heart diseases, cleft lip and palate, and upper and lower limbs deformity. There is a positive association of low birth weight, chronic maternal illness, father occupation, and family history with the congenital anomalies. Parental age and prematurity were independent risk factors for congenital anomalies. Periconceptional folicacidin take protect against congenital malformations. © 2009-2018, JGPT.Congenital anomalies; Risk factor; Typesfolic acid; Article; case control study; cleft lip palate; congenital heart disease; congenital malformation; controlled study; disease association; family history; father; female; hospital admission; human; limb deformity; low birth weight; lower limb; major clinical study; male; maternal age; mother; multipara; neonatal intensive care unit; neural tube defect; newborn; occupation; pregnancy diabetes mellitus; prematurity; risk factor; teaching hospital; upper limbfolic acid, 59-30-3, 6484-89-5Mashuda, F., Zuechner, A., Chalya, P., Pattern and factors associated with congenital anomalies among young infants admitted at Bugando medical centre, Mwanza, Tanzania (2014) BMC Res Notes, 7, p. 195; (2016) Congenital anomalies, , http://www.who.int/mediacentre/factsheets/fs370/en/, [Cited on 2016 Sept.]; Obu, H.A., Chinawa, J.M., Uleanya, N.D., Adimora, G.N., Obi, I.E., Congenital malformations among newborns admitted in the neonatal unit of a tertiary hospital in Enugu, South East Nigeria: a retrospective study (2012) BMC Res Notes, 5, p. 177; Gillani, S., Kazmi, N.H.S., Najeeb, S., Hussain, S., Raza, A., Frequency of congenital anomalies among newborns admitted in nursery of Ayub teaching hospital Abbottabad, Pakistan (2011) J Ayub Med Coll Abbottabad, 23 (1), pp. 117-121; Francine, R., Pascale, S., Aline, H., Congenital Anomalies: Prevalence and Risk Factors (2014) Universal Journal of Public Health, 2 (2), pp. 58-63; Al-Sabbak, M., Sadik Ali, S., Savabi, O., Savabi, G., Dastgiri, S., Savabieasfahani, M., Metal Contamination and the Epidemic of Congenital Birth Defects in Iraqi Cities (2012) Bull Environ Contam Toxicol, 89, pp. 937-944; Taboo, Z.A.A., Prevalence and Risk Factors for Congenital Anomalies in Mosul City (2012) The Iraqi Postgraduate Medical Journal, 11 (40), pp. 458-470; Alaani, S., Savabieasfahani, M., Tafash, M., Manduca, P., Four Polygamous Families with Congenital Birth Defects from Fallujah, Iraq Int (2011) J.

In this study, methanolic extract of Lawsonia inermis has been used for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles. To improve the biological composition of natural nanoparticles, many parameters were investigated, and these were concentration of the extract, pH and temperature of the reaction. The characterization process was performed using techniques of UV-visible spectroscopy, Energy Dispersive X-Ray (EDX) and scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The results illustrated that silver nanoparticles had a size of (150-600) nm and a spherical shape, showed SPR sharp peak between 390-451 nm and EDX attested that Ag, W, Ru, Cl and C elements exhibited weight percentages of 69 %, 17%, 7.5%, 5.3% and 1.2 % respectively. The antibacterial activity was examined against two Gram positive bacteria (S. aureus and S. pneumoniae) and two Gram negative bacteria (E.coli and P. aeruginosa) by using the agar disk diffusion method, showed that silver nanoparticles had a strong effect against Gram positive bacteria and it is more than Gram negative bacteria. Antioxidant activity was also tested by DPPH test. The % inhibition values were found to be 82.66, 75.43, 71.57 and 62.67μg/ml for Ag NPs, ascorbic acid, L. inermis and BHA respectively at100 μg/ml. © 2009-2018, JGPT.Antibacterial and Antioxidant activity; Law Sonia inermis; Silver nanoparticlesascorbic acid; butylated hydroxyanisole; carbon; chlorine; Lawsonia inermis extract; phytochemical; ruthenium; silver; silver nanoparticle; tungsten; antibacterial activity; antioxidant activity; Article; concentration (parameters); controlled study; disk diffusion; DPPH radical scavenging assay; energy dispersive X ray spectroscopy; Escherichia coli; green chemistry; inhibitory concentration; Lawsonia inermis; nanotechnology; nonhuman; particle size; pH; phytochemistry; Pseudomonas aeruginosa; reaction optimization; scanning electron microscopy; Staphylococcus aureus; Streptococcus pneumoniae; synthesis; temperature; ultraviolet visible spectroscopyascorbic acid, 134-03-2, 15421-15-5, 50-81-7; butylated hydroxyanisole, 25013-16-5; carbon, 7440-44-0; chlorine, 13981-72-1, 7782-50-5; ruthenium, 7440-18-8; silver, 7440-22-4; tungsten, 7440-33-7Lewinski, N., Colvin, V., Drezek, R., Cytotoxicity of Nanoparticles: nano small micro (2008), 4 (1), pp. 26-49; Kaviya, S., Santhanalakshmi, J., Viswanathan, B., "Green Synthesis of silver nanoparticles using Polyalthia longifolia Leaf extract along with D-Sorbitol."

Optimizing care coordination is a primary national concern for which yields significant cuts in medical care costs. However, the proposed metric-termed ‘care density’ for estimating care coordination is not completely accurate. Our objective is to compare the accuracy of the previously proposed ‘care density’, with our proposed ‘weighted care density’, ‘time varying care density’, and ‘time varying weighted care density’ in terms of predicting the cost of care. Our proposed metrics are based on the former care density, however, takes other variables into consideration, mainly patient hospitalization time frames and number of physician visitations. Our findings suggest that physicians coordinating over short time spans spike the cost of care above normal. © Springer International Publishing AG, part of Springer Nature 2018.2 mode bipartite networks; Incidence matrix; Social network analytics; Support vector regressionCosts; Analytic approach; Bipartite network; Incidence matrices; Support vector regression (SVR); Time frame; Time span; Time varying; Social networking (online)Virginia Commonwealth University, VCUThis work started as a class assignment, initially supported under the leadership of John A.

The modified AR biofilter was evaluated for its performance in the treatment of landfill leachate from young waste cell of landfill (young leachate) and equalization lagoon (intermediate leachate) from sanitary landfill site. The hydraulic loading of 55 L/m3/d with 0.7 L.day-1 total leachate volume was sprayed over the refuse samples 2 times a day.The physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of AR were analyzed for evaluating the AR biofilter as leachate treatment host. The initial concentration of chemical oxygen demand (COD) and biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) for young and intermediate leachate is 4,800 mg/L, 1,260 mg/L and 6,400 mg/L, 1,125 mg/L respectively. After first cycle of treatment, the final effluent of young and intermediate leachate was inodorous and colorless with COD and BOD 800 mg/L, 60 mg/L and 1,600 mg/L, 120 mg/L respectively. The percentage of reduction is about 75%- 95%. The result relieved that over 85% of zinc, 96% if iron (Fe), 89% of cadmium, 82% of lead and 91% of copper were removed for intermediate leachate where as 38% of Zn, 85% of Fe, 65% of Cd, 30% of Pb and 59% of Cu were removed for young leachate by first cycle of single stage AR biofilter when the initial concentration of heavy metals were 6.5493 mg/L (Zn), 79.0209 mg/L (Fe), 0.314 mg/L (Cd), 1.2114 mg/L (Pb), 0.368 mg/L (Cu) and 3.442 mg/L (Zn), 18.945 mg/L (Fe), 0.105 mg/L (Cd), 0.139 mg/L (Pb), 0.088 mg/L (Cu) respectively. © Oriental Scientific Publishing Company.

Graph clustering algorithm partitions a set of vertices in graphs into smaller sets (clusters) such that vertices in the same set are related to each other than to those in other sets. This study focuses the problem whether or not the fractal is helpful for graph clustering images. The most of the study used fractal dimension to calculate the self-similarity. In this study, we present a new algorithm, based on matching rang and domain fractal to find self-similarity properties of the data sets which can be used for graph clustering. It suggests that using fractal for image graph clustering can get the effective results. And this study presents an algorithm that automatically finds the number of clusters based on shared neighbors among vertices. The proposed algorithm is able to efficiently find graph clustering partitions for whole graphs. © 2018, Medwell Journals.Automatic clustering; Connectivity; Density; Fractal; Fractal dimension; Jaccard similarity; PIFS graph clustering; Self-similarityAndersen, R., Lang, K.J., Communities from seed sets (2006) Proceedings of the 15th International Conference on World Wide Web, pp. 223-232. , May 23-26, 2006, ACM, Edinburgh, Scotland; Everitt, B., Landau, S., Leese, M., (2001) Cluster Analysis, , 4th Edn., Taylor & Francis, Milton Park, Didcot, UK; Ino, H., Kudo, M., Nakamura, A., Partitioning of web graphs by community topology (2005) Proceedings of the 14th International Conference on World Wide Web, pp. 661-669. , May 10-14, 2005, ACM, Chiba, Japan; Jaccard, P., [Comparative study of the floral distribution in a portion of the Alps and the Jura (In French)] (1901) Bull.

As for as measuring the quality of any digital image is of crucial importance for many image processing applications, this study would take this importance into consideration. Using various medical techniques, the medical images under study are taken X-ray and fluoroscopy. The purpose behind that is to ensure the enhancement of brightness and contrast. To achieve the objective of the study, a diagnosis for the medical images in the same part of the body is done by evaluating the quality of these images. A well-known set of quality metrics are applied such as Image Fidelity (IF), Mean Squared Error (MSE), Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR), Structural Similarity Index (SSIM), Synthetic Content (SC), Average Difference (AD). © 2018, Medwell Journals.Brightness and contrast; Fluoroscopy; Iraq; Medical images; Quality image measurement; TechniquesAvcibas, I., Sankur, B., Sayood, K., Statistical evaluation of image quality measures (2002) J.

Nowadays people prefer to use mobile application in order to do their activities and transactions. Therefore, in order to create a good electronic documentation management system, it is important to enable mobile application to process and follow up system (it is also called e-Tracking). This study illustrates the mobile application and follow up system in directorate of scholarship and cultural relations in Iraq called the "Follow App." Follow App. provides a monitoring service within different studies in this directorate. This research has developed a follow App. by discussing with the main manager and some staff in this directorate. This study will contribute to encourage the government staff and their customers to use mobile application to ease their work. It can also reduce their effort and time as well as decrease the cost. Moreover, this follow App. system provides more control on the work by keeping an eye on the staff in this directorate. Finally, this system can increase the trust of using technology in Iraqi sectors. © 2018, Medwell Journals.Application; Contribute to encourage; directorate of scholarship and cultural relation; Electronic documentation management follow app; Main manager and some staffAbdulameer, M.M., Burhanuddin, M.A., Huda, I., Harith, A.A., Hassan, M.A., E-government and its challenges in developing countries: Case study Iraqi E-government (2016) Soc.

Such a dynamical system is a class C laser, whence the charactering features are intrinsically chaotic. Phase control relies on the addition of small parametric harmonic perturbations with adjustable phase. Phase control is demonstrated by changing both frequency and strength of the controlling perturbations. Our results show that phase control has two crucial effects on a quantum dot light-emitting diode. First, it can enhance the spiking behavior in either regular or chaotic regimes; second, it is able to turn periodic behavior to chaotic behavior with a minimal perturbation when a resonance condition at half of the driving frequency is achieved. © The Author(s) 2018.Control; Phase; Quantum dot devicesC (programming language); Control engineering; Diodes; Dynamical systems; Nanocrystals; Nanosystems; Optical waveguides; Phase control; Semiconductor quantum dots; Chaotic behaviors; Driving frequencies; Harmonic perturbations; Periodic behavior; Phase; Quantum dot devices; Quantum-dot light emitting diodes; Resonance condition; Organic light emitting diodes (OLED)University of Baghdad, UoBKAM Al Naimee acknowledges the University of Baghdad for covering the scholarship and INO-Florence for the hospitality.(2007) Handbook of Chaos Control, , Scholl E and Schuster HE, Berlin: Wiley-VCH; Boccaletti, S., Grebogi, C., Lai, Y.C., The control of chaos: Theory and applications (2000) Phys Rep, 329, p. 103; Ott, E., Grebogi, C., Yorke, J.A., Controlling chaos (1990) Phys Rev Lett, 64, p. 1196; Pyragas, K., Continuous control of chaos by self-controlling feedback (1992) Phys Lett A, 170, p. 491; Meucci, R., Gadomski, W., Ciofini, M., Experimental control of chaos by means of weak parametric perturbations (1994) Phys Rev E Stat Phys Plasmas Fluids Relat Interdiscip Topics, 49, pp. R2528-R2531; Meucci, R., Euzzor, S., Pugliese, E., Optimal phase-control strategy for damped-driven Duffing oscillators (2016) Phys Rev Lett, 116; Qu, Z., Hu, G., Yang, G., Phase effect in taming nonautonomous chaos by weak harmonic perturbations (1995) Phys Rev Lett, 74, p. 1736; Yang, J., Qu, Z., Hu, G., Duffing equation with two periodic forcings: The phase effect (1996) Phys Rev E, 53, p. 4402; Chacon, R., Suppression of chaos by selective parametric perturbations (1995) Phys Rev E Stat Phys Plasmas Fluids Relat Interdiscip Topics, 51, pp. 761-764; Chacon, R., Role of ultra-subharmonic resonances in taming chaos (2001) Europhys Lett, 54, p. 148; Cao, H., Chi, X., Chen, G., Suppressing or inducing chaos by weak resonant excitations (2004) Int J Bifurcation Chaos Appl Sci Eng, 14, p. 1115; Leung, A.Y.T., Zengrong, L., Suppressing chaos for some nonlinear oscillators (2004) Int J Bifurcation Chaos Appl Sci Eng, 14, p. 1455; Seoane, J.M., Zambrano, S., Euzzor, S., Avoiding escapes in open dynamical systems using phase control (2008) Phys Rev E Stat Nonlin Soft Matter Phys, 78; Chacon, R., Martínezgarcía-Hoz, A., Miralles, J.J., Amplitude modulation control of escape from a potential well (2014) Phys.

However, numerous educational institutions and public and private universities in Iraq continue to use manual methods to exchange official and unofficial documents among departments. This situation highlights the need to implement novel technologies (both hardware and software) in educational institutions and understand the factors that hinder the adoption of electronic information sharing. This study investigated the critical variables that influence the adoption of modern communication technologies for information sharing among departments in technical institutions, particularly those in Nasiriya. Data were gathered through questionnaires distributed among lecturers in institute departments and staff in administrative offices. A sophisticated technique called SEM-PLS was utilized to analyze raw data through SmartPLS v.3 in addition to IBM SPSS. A significant relationship was observed between complexities and intention to use and between intention to use - > EIS adoption. No other relationship showed any significant influence on the adoption or intention to use electronic information sharing among departments in the Technical Institute in Nasiriyah. Results of this study will aid decision makers from technical institutes in understanding the barriers that impede electronic information sharing. Developers and designers of e-Services systems can also refer to the results to enhance systems based on end-user requirements. © Medwell Journals, 2018.SEM-PLS; Sharing information; SmartPLS 3; Sophsticated; Technical institute; Thi-QarAbbasi, M.N., Malik, A., Chaudhry, I.S., Imdadullah, M., A study on student satisfaction in Pakistani universities: The case of Bahauddin Zakariya University, Pakistan (2011) Asian Soc.

The preparation method of AC included using zinc chloride as activation agent. Characterizations of the porosities of AC preparations were performed using N2 adsorption-desorption to ascertain surface area and pore volume. Existing groups on the AC surfaces were resolved using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) analyses. Scanning electron microscopic (SEM) was used to asses AC morphologies. Maximal surface areas of AC preparations were discovered to be 1190.41 m2/g at activation temperatures of 700 °C.Adsorption isotherm was analyzed using two models Langmuir and Freundlich. The kinetic study was represented through Pseudo first order and pseudo second order. © 2018 Oriental Scientific Publishing Company.

It was found that the fusion zone microstructure contains a complex microstructure of retained austenite, martensite, and bainite. The peak hardness in the heat affected zone of advance high-strength steel was greater than fusion zone hardness due to the higher hardenability of advance high-strength steel compared to fusion zone. Dissimilar DP600/EN 10130 spot welds show the highest trend to fail in pullout failure mode with good mechanical properties. Effects of weld microstructure and fusion zone size on mechanical properties dissimilar DP600/EN 10130 spot welds are analysed. © 2018, Springer International Publishing AG, part of Springer Nature.Dual phase steel; Low carbon steel; Resistance spot weldingPouranvari, M., Marashi, S., Critical review of automotive steels spot welding: Process, structure and properties (2013) Sci.

The iteration procedure is based on local fractional derivative and integral operators. This method is the combination of the local fractional Laplace transform and variational iteration method. The method in general is easy to implement and yields good results. Illustrative examples are included to demonstrate the validity and applicability of the new technique. © 2018 Society of Thermal Engineers of Serbia.Coupled KdV equation; Local fractional Laplace transform;

This study has discovered several point mutations in the investigated genetic locus. In addition to the presence of a variety of SNPs in the intronic and 32 UTR regions, the present study was observed other variations that were varied in their nature from synonymous SNPs (or sSNPs) into non-synonymous SNPs (or nsSNPs) within the exonic portions of the NPM1 gene. On the other hand, all the observed SNPs were novel as it was confirmed by the dbSNP server that was showed the absence of any "known" SNPs in any observed locus. After the alignment of the coding portion of the sequenced samples with their parallel reference sequences, only one amino acid substitution was observed, which means the presence of only one non-synonymous SNP, in which, the amino acid Trp is substituted into Gly at 290 amino acid position as it was visualized by PyMoland the change in these proteins does not lead to the leukemia disease. In conclusion, the examined samples have several SNPs that despite their high degree of changeability they didn't show any clear association with the presence of any suggestive causal SNP with leukemia in benzene station workers. Nonetheless, the utilized bioinformatics tools were alsoprovided a predictive insight for the possible consequences of each observed SNP in both the structure and the biological function of the NPM1 gene product, needs an extensive study of more samples. © 2018 Biochem.

Evaluating the effectiveness of early detection of childhood asthmatic symptoms, followed by a counseling intervention at preventive child health centers is the corn stone of this study. Early detection and counseling is expected to reduce the prevalence of asthma symptoms and improve health quality in general. This study aimed to evaluate the early detection program of asthma through structure or preconditions of early detection program of asthma, process to be carried out to deliver this program, outcome (Intermediate and ultimate indicators) and lastly opinion of consumers and providers. Evaluation type of study had been conducted all over the 2016. Nine health care centers were involved since the 1st week of January 2016, where an early detection tool had been applied at age groups 1, 2-5, 6 and more than 6 years at the intervention centers. Children who met the intervention criteria received counseling intervention (personal advice to parents to prevent the child from exposure to smoking, and/or referral to the general practitioner or asthma nurse). The primary outcome was asthma diagnosis at age 6 years. Secondary outcomes included frequency and severity of asthma symptoms, health-related quality of life at age 6 years. Analysis was done according to the intention-to-treat principle. Data collection was completed at the 1st of November 2016. Evaluation of the present input, process of PHC for early detection program resulted in: Providing most of the human resources in terms of laboratory assistants and coordinators of the program. Providing most of the material resources such as pressure gauges, medical handset and scales and tape measure height and waist needed to work in the laboratory with the availability of a suitable place for the work program staff to do their job and appliances. The percentage for input was 60% for all PHCs. While regarding consumer satisfaction: Most of consumer are highly satisfied 149 (80.1%) while not satisfied only 8 (4.3%) and high numbers gave the reason due to good services 97 (52.5%) and no comments 71 (38.2%). Regarding the proportion of the detected cases for different non communicable diseases was 44.1% of the whole population that have alarming sign and symptoms of NCD.

Fermi 6, Florence, 50125, ItalyThis research reports a theoretical investigation on the role of filtered optical feedback (FOF) in the quantum dot light emitting diode (QD-LED). The underlying dynamics is affected by a sidle node, which returns to an elliptical shape when the wetting layer (WL) is neglected. Both filter width and time delay change the appearance of different dynamics (chaotic and mixed mode oscillations,MMOs). The results agrees with the experimental observations. Here, the fixed point analysis for QDs was done for the first time. For QD-LED with FOF, the system transits from the coherence collapse (CC) case in conventional optical feedback (COF) to a coherent case with a filtered mode in FOF. It was found that the WL washes out the modes which is an unexpected result. This may attributed to the longer capture time of WL compared with that between QD states. Thus, WL reduces the chaotic behavior. © 2018 Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland.Chaos; Filtered optical feedback; Quantum DotChaos theory; Magnetic materials; Nanocrystals; Optical feedback; Oscillators (mechanical); Semiconductor quantum dots; Superconducting materials; Coherence collapse; Filtered optical feedback; Fixed point analysis; Mixed mode oscillations; Quantum-dot light emitting diodes; Theoretical investigations; Time delay changes; Underlying dynamics; Organic light emitting diodes (OLED)Quantum-Dot Light-Emitting Diode (LED) (2008) Evident Technologies, Inc., , http://www.evidenttech.com/Quantum-Dot-(LED).html; Komine, T., Nakagawa, M., Fundamental analysis for visible-light communication system using LED lights (2004) IEEE Trans.

A cooled lid-driven top wall and a heated bottom wall are the only thermally uninsulated walls in this domain. A standard k-ε for the Unsteady Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (URANS) approach is applied to the turbulence calculation. Nusselt number, mean velocity profile, streamline, isothermal and isosurface temperatures are derived and presented in this paper to gain a better understanding of the effects of clockwise and anti-clockwise rotating cylinder directions on the heat transfer and flow patterns. Interesting changes in flow structure and heat transfer have been analysed for all rotational speeds and fluid types at both Reynolds number values. Nonlinear increases in Nusselt number have been observed by using nanofluid instead of pure water. The wall shear stress and turbulent kinetic energy profiles are found to be influenced by changing the Reynolds number and rotational speed and direction. Furthermore, incremental heat transfer rates at the walls can be achieved by increasing the cylinder rotation speeds, but these increases have weaker influences on the top wall than on the bottom wall. © 2017 Elsevier LtdLid-driven cavity; Mixed convection; Rotating cylinder; Turbulent flow; URANSClocks; Computational fluid dynamics; Cylinders (shapes); Domain walls; Enclosures; Heat convection; Kinetic energy; Kinetics; Mixed convection; Nanofluidics; Navier Stokes equations; Nusselt number; Reynolds number; Shear stress; Silica; Turbulent flow; Heat transfer and flows; Lid-driven cavities; Mean velocity profiles; Mixed convective flow; Rotating cylinders; Turbulent kinetic energy; Unsteady reynolds-averaged navier-stokes; URANS; Heat transferMinistry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, MHESRThe authors would like to thank the Ministry of Higher Education of Scientific Research of Iraq for supporting this project financially.Kareem, A.K., Gao, S., Ahmed, A.Q., Unsteady simulations of mixed convection heat transfer in a 3D closed lid-driven cavity (2016) Int.

The effect of PCM and its role in improvement of thermal performance and thermal comfort is experimentally studied. Two room's models have been built, the first model is a standard room for comparison and the second model is an experimental room for testing. Wasit university in Kut city, (32.5° N) latitude, was the place of the building models and testing of PCM. The type of PCM which was used in this experiment is paraffin wax with a melting point (44 °C).

First-principle of the density functional theory (DFT) method, which is implemented in the Gaussian 09W program are used to investigate the electronic properties, such as electronic band gap, DOS, total energy, dipole moment, HOMO, and LOMO energies of the GNFs with and without various concentrations of the BN impurities in various sites. There are very significant results. My founding results show that these properties of the GNFs depend on the concentrations of BN impurities and the geometrical pattern of the BN impurities in the GNFs. By increasing the distance between these impurities, the electronic band gap and the shape of the DOS are reduced and altered, respectively. So, the results offer that the electronic band gap value depends on the concentrations of BN impurities and sites of these impurities in the GNFs. The electronic dipole moments value is increased by increased the concentrations of the BN impurities. All structures became more stable due to the total energy is increased, excepted B, BN and B2N impurities, which is reduced and make GNFs structure unstable. Then, GNFs can be used in various applications because the electronic properties of the GNFs are controlled and modified with BN impurities. © 2017 Elsevier B.V.BN impurities; DFT; Electronic band gap; GNFs, HOMO, LOMODensity functional theory; Dipole moment; Electronic properties; Energy gap; Chemical doping; Density functional theory methods; Electronic band gaps; Electronic dipole moments; First principles; Geometrical patterns; GNFs, HOMO, LOMO; Impurities in; GrapheneRani, P., Jindal, V., Designing band gap of graphene by B and N dopant atoms (2013) RSC Adv., 3, pp. 802-812; Sirikumara, H.I., Putz, E., Al-Abboodi, M., Jayasekera, T., Symmetry induced semimetal-semiconductor transition in doped graphene (2016) Sci.

Epileptic EEG signals are recorded as multichannel signals. A reliable technique for analysing multi-channel EEG signals is in urgent demand for the treatment and diagnosis of patients who have epilepsy and other brain disorders. Method In this paper, each single EEG channel is partitioned into four segments, with each segment is further divided into small clusters. A set of statistical features are extracted from each cluster. As a result, a vector of all the features from each EEG single channel is obtained. The resulting features vector is then mapped into an undirected weighted network. The modularity of the networks is found to be the best to detect epileptic seizures in EEG signals. Other local and global network features, including clustering coefficients, average degree and closeness centrality, are also extracted and studied. All the network attributes are ranked based on their potential to detect abnormalities in EEG signals. Results Eight pairs of combinations of EEG signals are classified by the proposed method using four well known classifiers: a least support vector machine, k-means, Naïve Bayes, and K-nearest. The proposed method achieved an average of 98%, 96.5%, 99%, rand 0.012, respectively, for its accuracy, sensitivity, specificity and the false positive rate. Comparisons were made using several existing epileptic seizures detection methods using the same datasets. The obtained results showed that the proposed method was efficient in detecting epileptic seizures in EEG signals. © 2017 Elsevier LtdEpileptic EEG signals; Modularity; Statistical features; Weighted complex networksComplex networks; Diagnosis; Electroencephalography; Neurology; Neurophysiology; Patient treatment; Signal detection; Closeness centralities; Clustering coefficient; Community structure detections; Electro-encephalogram (EEG); Epileptic EEG; Modularity; Statistical features; Weighted complex networks; Biomedical signal processingAarabi, A., Wallois, F., Grebe, R., Automated neonatal seizure detection: A multistage classification system through feature selection based on relevance and redundancy analysis (2006) Clinical Neurophysiology, 117, pp. 328-340; Acharya, U.R., Yanti, R., Zheng, J.W., Krishnan, M.M.R., TAN, J.H., Martis, R.J., Automated diagnosis of epilepsy using CWT, HOS and texture parameters (2013) International Journal of Neural Systems, 23; Adeli, H., Zhou, Z., Dadmehr, N., Analysis of EEG records in an epileptic patient using wavelet transform (2003) Journal of Neuroscience Methods, 123, pp. 69-87; Al Ghaya, H.R., Li, Y., Abdulla, S., Diykh, M., Wan, X., Classification of epileptic EEG signals based on simple random sampling and sequential feature selection (2016) Brain Informatics, 3, pp. 85-91; Alam, S.S., Bhuiyan, M.I.H., Detection of seizure and epilepsy using higher order statistics in the EMD domain (2013) IEEE Journal of Biomedical and Health Informatics, 17, pp. 312-318; Andrzejak, R.G., Lehnertz, K., Mormann, F., Rieke, C., David, P., Elger, C.E., Indications of nonlinear deterministic and finite-dimensional structures in time series of brain electrical activity: Dependence on recording region and brain state (2001) Physical Review E, 64; Antoniou, I., Tsompa, E., Statistical analysis of weighted networks (2008), Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society, 2008; Bajaj, V., Pachori, R.B., Classification of seizure and nonseizure EEG signals using empirical mode decomposition (2012) IEEE Transactions on Information Technology in Biomedicine, 16, pp. 1135-1142; Barrat, A., Barthelemy, M., Pastor-Satorras, R., Vespignani, A., The architecture of complex weighted networks (2004) Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 101, pp. 3747-3752; Bashan, A., Bartsch, R.P., Kantelhardt, J.W., Havlin, S., Ivanov, P.C., Network physiology reveals relations between network topology and physiological function (2012) Nature Communications, 3, p. 702; Bhardwaj, A., Tiwari, A., Krishna, R., Varma, V., A novel genetic programming approach for epileptic seizure detection (2016) Computer Methods and Programs in Biomedicine, 124, pp. 2-18; Bhattacharyya, A., Pachori, R.B., Acharya, U.R., Tunable-Q wavelet transform based multivariate sub-band fuzzy entropy with application to focal EEG signal analysis (2017) Entropy, 19, p. 99; Blondel, V.D., Guillaume, J.-L., Lambiotte, R., Lefebvre, E., Fast unfolding of communities in large networks (2008) Journal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory and Experiment, 2008, p.

This work presents a model design for observing with testing the vital signs of the patients depend on sensors and web services. A proposed monitoring system uses e-health shield connect Arduino Uno that collects medical information from the patients. Different parameters measured, like blood pressure, heart rate and glucose level into blood which are transmitted via ZigBee to the microcontroller then uploaded to the system website platform by a gateway. In addition, the proposed system is capable of giving alert message whenever an abnormal condition occurs. Therefore, the GPS/GPRS services were used to send the alert mobile message to a specialist doctor. © 2017 IEEE.E-health; Vital Signs; Wireless Sensor Network; ZigBeeArtificial intelligence; Blood pressure; Diseases; eHealth; Health; Medical information systems; Web services; Websites; Wireless sensor networks; Zigbee; Abnormal conditions; Chronic disease; Glucose level; Health parameters; Heart disease; Medical information; Monitoring system; Vital sign; MonitoringStefanov, D.H., Bien, Z., Bang, W., The smart house for older persons and persons with physical disabilities: Structure, technology arrangements, and perspectives (2004) IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering, 12 (2), pp. 228-250; Korhonen, I., Parkka, J., Van Gils, M., Health monitoring in the home of the future (2003) IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Magazine, 22 (3), pp. 66-73; (2016) The 2012 Revision, Population Division of the Department of Economic and Social Affairs of the, , http://esa.un.org/unpd/wpp/index.htm, UN World Population Prospects: United Nations Secretariat, 2013, online, last access: April; Schreurs, D.M.M.P., Mercuri, M., Soh, P.J., Vandenbosch, G.A.E., Wireless health monitoring: Design challenges (2012) Proceedings of 9th European Radar Conference (EuRAD), , IEEE; Sandi, G., Nugraha, I.G.B., Supangkat, S.H., Mobile health monitoring and consultation to support hypertension treatment (2013) International Conference on ICT for Smart Society (ICISS), , IEEE; Lee, Y.F., Personal medical monitoring system: Addressing interoperability (2013) IT Professional, 15 (5), pp. 31-37. , Sep; Rashvand, H.F., Salcedo, V.T., Sanchez, E.M., Iliescu, D., Ubiquitous wireless telemedicine (2008) IET Communications, 2 (2), pp. 237-254; Cheriyan, A.M., Pervasive embedded real-time monitoring of EEG & SpO2 (2009) 3rd International Conference on Pervasive Computing Technologies for Healthcare, , IEEE; Mukherjee, S., Dolui, K., Datta, S.K., Patient health management system using e-health monitoring architecture (2014) Proceedings of International Advance Computing Conference (IACC), , IEEE; Rahim, A., Karmakar, N.C., Sensor cooperation in wireless body area network using network coding for sleep apnea monitoring system (2013) 8th International Conference on Intelligent Sensors, Sensor Networks and Information Processing, pp. 2-5. , April; Lee, Y.C., Chou, C.C., Fang, W.C., Huang, H.C., Portable sleep monitoring and awaking system based on EEG, ECG, tri-axis accelerometers and LED array panel (2011) IEEE International Conference on Consumer Electronics - Berlin (ICCE-Berlin), , 6-8 Sept; Harun, M.U., Al Rasyid, B.H., Lee, A., Mahfud, S.I., Monitoring system of patient position based on wireless body area sensor network (2015) International Conference on Consumer Electronics-Taiwan (ICCE-TW), , IEEE; Shahriyar, R., Bari, F., Kundu, G., Ahamed, S.I., Akba, M., Intelligent mobile health monitoring system (IMHMS) (2010) Electronic Healthcare, pp. 5-12; Michael, K., McNamee, The emerging ethics of human centric GPS tracking and monitoring (2006) Proceedings of the International Conference on Mobile Business, , Copenhagen, Denmark, 25-27 July; Fuicu, S., Avramescu, A., Lascu, D., Marcu, M., Padurariu, R., Real-time e-health system for continuous care (2014) Proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Pervasive Computing Technologies for Healthcare, Pages, pp. 436-439; Paul, M.C., Sarkar, S., Rahman, M.M., Reza, S.M., Kaiser, M.S., Low cost and portable patient monitoring system for e-Health services in Bangladesh (2016) Proceedings of International Conference on Computer Communication and Informatics (ICCCI), pp. 1-4; Monicka, S., Suganya, C., Bharathi, S.N., Sindhu, A.P., A ubiquitous based system for health care monitoring (2014) International Journal of Scientific Research Engineering & Technology (IJSRET), 3 (4). , July; Monicka, S., Suganya, C., Bharathi, S.N., Sindhu, A.P., A ubiquitous based system for health care monitoring (2014) International Journal of Scientific Research Engineering & Technology (IJSRET), 3 (4). , July; Jaronde, P.W., Ramteke, M.D., Bobade, N.P., Design of wireless medical monitoring system (2015) International Journal of Engineering Research and General Science, 3 (2). , March-April; Jubadi, W.M., Aisyah, S.F., Sahak, M., Heartbeat monitoring alert via sms IEEE Symposium on Industrial Electronics and Applications (ISIEA 2009), , October 4-6, 2009, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia; SIM908 at Command Manual V1.02, , https://www.cooking-hacks.com/sim908/SIM908_AT_Command, Libelium Communications Corporation S.L A Company of SIM Tech 2011, online, last access: April 2015 Shanghai SIMCom Wireless Solution LtdInstitute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.9th International Conference on Electronics, Computers and Artificial Intelligence, ECAI 201729 June 2017 through 1 July 20171335069781509064571EnglishProc.

The women were divided according the type of infertility into primary and secondary groups (1°UI, 2°UI, 1°PCO and2°PCO) respectively. 50 healthy fertile women with the same age were included in this study as a control group. The results showed a significant increase in serum malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in all infertility groups compared to control group. Whereas serum levels of the antioxidants glutathione (GSH), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and ceruloplasmin (Cp) were significantly decreased in all infertility groups in comparison with control group. Serum levels of iron and copper significantly increase in unexplained infertility groups in comparison with explained infertility and control groups. No significant differences in iron levels between explained infertility groups and control. Whereas serum levels of the copper were significantly increased in explained infertility groups in comparison with control group. This study concluded that is a disturbance in serum oxidant- antioxidant balance in women with UI and PCOS infertility. © 2009-2017, JGPT.

From 320 diarrhoea cases enrolled between March and August 2016, 33 (10·3%, 95% confidence interval (CI) 8·4-12·4) cases were stool culture-positive for non-typhoidal Salmonella enterica. The most commonly identified serovar was Typhimurium (54%). Multivariable logistic regression analysis indicated that the odds of Salmonella infection in children from households supplied by pipe water was 4·7 (95% CI 1·6-13·9) times higher compared with those supplied with reverse osmosis treated water. Similarly, children from households with domestic animals were found to have a higher odds (OR 10·5; 95% CI 3·8-28·4) of being Salmonella stool culture-positive. The likelihood of Salmonella infection was higher (OR 3·9; 95% CI 1·0-6·4) among children belonging to caregiver with primary vs. tertiary education levels. Lower odds (OR 0·4; 95% CI 0·1-0·9) of Salmonella infection were associated with children exclusively breast fed as compared with those exclusively bottle fed. Salmonella infection was three times lower (95% CI 0·1-0·7) in children belonging to caregiver who reported always washing hands after cleaning children following defecation, vs. those belonging to caregivers who did not wash hands. The antimicrobial resistance profile by disc diffusion revealed that non-susceptibility to tetracycline (78·8%), azithromycin (66·7%) and ciprofloxacin (57·6%) were the most commonly seen, and 84·9% of Salmonella isolates were classified as multi-drug resistant. This is the first study on prevalence and antimicrobial resistance of Salmonella infection among children in this setting. This work provides specific epidemiological data which are crucial to understand and combat paediatric diarrhoea in Iraq. © 2017 Cambridge University Press.Diarrhoea; epidemiology; Iraq; paediatrics; Salmonellaamoxicillin plus clavulanic acid; ampicillin; azithromycin; cefotaxime; ceftriaxone; chloramphenicol; ciprofloxacin; cotrimoxazole; gentamicin; nalidixic acid; streptomycin; tetracycline; antiinfective agent; antibiotic resistance; antibiotic sensitivity; Article; bottle feeding; breast feeding; caregiver; child; cleaning; clinical article; controlled study; cross-sectional study; defecation; diarrhea; disk diffusion; domestic animal; educational status; feces culture; female; gastroenteritis; hand washing; household; human; infection risk; Iraq; male; multidrug resistance; nonhuman; pathogenesis; preschool child; prevalence; reverse osmosis; risk factor; Salmonella; Salmonella enterica; Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium; salmonellosis; water supply; water treatment; antibiotic resistance; diarrhea; drug effects; feces; genetics; infant; microbiology; newborn; prevalence; risk factor; salmonellosis; Anti-Bacterial Agents; Child, Preschool; Cross-Sectional Studies; Diarrhea; Drug Resistance, Bacterial; Feces; Female; Humans; Infant; Infant, Newborn; Iraq; Male; Prevalence; Risk Factors; Salmonella; Salmonella Infectionsamoxicillin plus clavulanic acid, 74469-00-4, 79198-29-1; ampicillin, 69-52-3, 69-53-4, 7177-48-2, 74083-13-9, 94586-58-0; azithromycin, 83905-01-5, 117772-70-0, 121470-24-4; cefotaxime, 63527-52-6, 64485-93-4; ceftriaxone, 73384-59-5, 74578-69-1; chloramphenicol, 134-90-7, 2787-09-9, 56-75-7; ciprofloxacin, 85721-33-1; cotrimoxazole, 8064-90-2; gentamicin, 1392-48-9, 1403-66-3, 1405-41-0; nalidixic acid, 389-08-2; streptomycin, 57-92-1; tetracycline, 23843-90-5, 60-54-8, 64-75-5, 8021-86-1; Anti-Bacterial AgentsCollege of Science and Health; Murdoch UniversityThis study has been supported by the Murdoch University and the Iraqi government.

Never forget that the electronic health record (EHR) represents a unique and valuable human being: it is not just a collection of data that you are guarding, it is a life. Malicious codes are one of the significant reasons for the rising number of security violations of systems associated with the web or worked in an open domain. Some security organizations, that perceive the significance of security, develop security systems, for example, firewalls, virus scanning proxy servers, and intrusion detection system. In this venture, the integration of different techniques in network security is applied for healthcare system protection. This work portrays a wavelet neural network approach to the proposed Intelligent Healthcare Security System (IHSS) which include an intelligent firewall (IFW), intelligent network intrusion detection subsystem (INIDS), and intelligent web filter (IFW). Also, it used Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) for detection and classifying the attacks depend on an on-line analysis mechanism. Various wavelet neural network structures are analyzed to discover the optimal neural network with regards to the number of hidden layers. © 2017 IEEE.Healthcare system; Intelligent firewall; Intrusion detection; Neural networkComputer system firewalls; Computer viruses; Health care; Intrusion detection; Neural networks; Records management; Security systems; Viruses; Electronic health record; Health-care system; Intelligent firewall; Intrusion Detection Systems; Network intrusion detection; Optimal neural network; Security organizations; Wavelet neural networks; Network securityAbual Karim, N.S., Ahmed, M., An overview of electronic health record (her) implementation framework and impact on health care organizations in Malaysia:a case study (2010) IEEE (ICMIT); Chandeep, S., Proposal of a cloud computing system for management of health data (2015) International Journal of Computer Applications (0975 - 8887), 114 (15). , March; Biswas, S., Anisuzzaman, Akhter, T., Kaiser, M.S., Mamun, S.A., Cloud Based healthcare application architecture and electronic medical record mining: An integrated approach to improve healthcare system (2014) Proceeding of 17th IEEE International Conference on Computer and Information Technology (ICCIT), pp. 286-292; Frahim, J., Santos, O., White, D., (2006) Cisco Network Admission Control, Volume II: NAC Network Deployment and Troubleshooting, , Cisco Press, November; Chi, H., Implementation of a security access control model for interorganizational healthcare information systems (2008) IEEE International Conference Asia-Pacific Services Computing Conference, pp. 692-696; Cannady, J., Mahaffey, J., The application of artificial neural networks to misuse detection: Initial results (2000) Proceedings of The 1St International Workshop on Recent Advances in Intrusion Detection (RAID 2000); Divya, T., Shanmugapriya, L., Two-level security in shared m-healthcare system using owncloud (2016) IEEE International Conference on Computing Technologies and Intelligent Data Engineering (ICCTIDE), pp. 1-6; Chen, Q., Lambright, J., Towards realizing a self-protecting healthcare information system (2016) IEEE 40th Annual Computer Software and Applications Conference, 1, pp. 687-690; Grammatikakis, M.D., High-level security services based on a hardware NoC firewall module (2015) 12th International Workshop on Intelligent Solutions in Embedded Systems (WISES), pp. 73-78; (2003) Malware: Fighting Malicious Code, , ED SKOUDIS, Prentice Hall; Joarder, K., Begg, R.K., Sarker, R.A., (2006) Neural Networks in Finance and Manufacturing, , Idea Group Publishing; Vigna, G., Kemmerer, R.A., NetSTAT: A network-based intrusion detection approach Proceedings of 14th Annual Computer Security Applications Conference, pp. 25-34; Cunningham, R., Lippmann, R., Improving intrusion detection performance using keyword selection and neural networks (2002) Proceedings of The International Symposium on Recent Advances in Intrusion Detection, , Purdue; Laing, B., How To Guide-Implementing A Network Based Intrusion Detection System, , Sovereign Reading RG1 8BT, UK; Joao, B.D., Bavichandran, B., Mehra, R.K., Statistical traffic modeling for network intrusion detection Proceedings of 8th International Symposium on Modeling, Analysis and Simulation of Computer and Telecommunication Systems, pp. 466-473Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.4th International Conference on Control, Decision and Information Technologies, CoDIT 20175 April 2017 through 7 April 20171323479781509064656EnglishInt.

It describes the case of organization of distributed source routing when one of the border routers consistently solves two interconnected network tasks: calculation of the required routes and determination of the allocation order of link resource to be reserved in order to meet end-to-end QoS-requirements for the packet rate and the average packet delay. It has been found that the method provides iterative calculation of the desired control variables; the number of such iterations depended on the network structure, amount of available network resources, the number of flows and their requirements for QoS level. © 2017 IEEE.end-to-end delay; flow-based model; hierarchical routing; multipath routing; packet rate; QoS; tensor modelDistributed computer systems; Iterative methods; Mobile telecommunication systems; Quality of service; End to end delay; Flow-based models; Hierarchical routings; Multi path routing; Packet rate; Tensor model; Network routingBarreiros, M., Lundqvist, P., Qos-enabled networks: Tools and foundations (2016) Wiley Series on Communications Networking & Distributed Systems, p. 254. , 2nd Edition, Wiley; Szigeti, T., Hattingh, C., Barton, R., Briley, K., (2013) End-to-end Qos Network Design: Quality of Service for Rich-media & Cloud Networks, p. 1040. , 2nd Edition, Cisco Press; (2014), p. 792. , Cisco Networking Academy, ed.

The Pt nanorods electrodes were grown using a magnetron sputtering glancing angle deposition (GLAD) technique at different lengths (400 ad 600 nm long). The x-ray diffraction and SEM results reveal that that Pt nanorod are well-isolated, single crystal, and mainly oriented in Pt(100) which has the highest activity for ethanol adsorption and electrooxidation. The CV results show that the forward anodic current density (If) to the reverse anodic peak current density (Ib) ratio is calculated to be 4.8 and 7.2 for 400 and 600 nm Pt nanorods, respectively, while it is around 2.5 for a commercial high-surface-area-supported Pt (Pt/C) catalyst. Such high ratio for Pt nanorods electrocatalysts reflects the enhanced tolerance to the accumulation of carbonaceous species; a larger quantity of intermediate carbonaceous species is converted (oxidized) to CO2 in the forward scan compared to Pt/C, thus significantly enhancing the electrode electroactivity. © 2017 The Authors.Direct Ethanol Fuel Cells; Electrooxidation of Ethanol; GLAD Pt nanorod arrays electrocatalysts; Glancing Angle Deposition (GLAD) techniqueACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The authors would like to thank the UALR Nanotechnology Center and Dr. Fumiya Watanabe for his continued support in performing SEM and XRD measurements.Li, H., Sun, G., Cao, L., Jiang, L., Xin, Q., (2007) Electrochimica Acta, 52, p. 6622; Lai, S.C.S., Koper, M.T.M., (2008) Faraday Discussion, 140, p. 399; Antolini, E., (2007) Journal of Power Sources, 170, p. 1; Jiang, L., Sun, G., Zhou, Z., Zhou, W., Xin, Q., (2004) Catalysis Today, 93-95, p. 665; Lamy, C., Rouddeau, S., Belgsir, E.M., Coutanceau, C., Leger, J.M., (2004) Electrochimica Acta, 49, p. 3901; Delime, F., Leger, J.M., Lamy, C., (1998) J.

In the present work, a type of shaped metal deposition using tungsten inert gas welding plus SS308LSi Wire technique was developed and integrated it with a new computer-aided metal deposition machine (CAMDM). The intent of this paper is to investigate the CAMDM system capabilities about the part modeling and slicing, deposition-path planning, and the part depositing processes. Additionally, this paper highlights the capabilities and limitations of the developed system. The results show that the current manufacturing system is capable to produce various features for metal components with accepted surface quality and free internal defects. The most suitable deposition-path strategy for depositing the solid and hollow components is the combined pattern method, which comprises of the spiral/contour path pattern for the outside/inside boundaries of the part and either spiral or zigzag/raster path pattern for the interior spaces. The controlling system of the present setup allows tuning the deposition parameters during deposition process which usually contributes with selecting of the proper path pattern to manufacture a free defects deposited parts. © 2017, King Fahd University of Petroleum & Minerals.CAD; Path planning strategy; Shaped metal deposition; TIG welding; Wire and arc additive manufacturingAcknowledgements This research is performed with financial assistance (Grant No: MF.14.29) from the Scientific Project Bureau of The University of Gaziantep which is gratefully acknowledged.Zhang, Y.M., Li, P., Chen, Y., Male, A.T., Automated system for welding-ased rapid prototyping (2002) Int.

The system that takes into account in the study is left lead-donor-molecule-acceptor-right lead. The molecule, such as (phenyl, biphenyl, triphenyl, naphthalene, anthracene, and phenanthrene), is threaded by magnetic flux. This work contains two parts. First is computing density of states of the molecular structures as a closed system by density functional theory (DFT). Second is calculating the transmission probability and electric current of such molecular structures as an open system by steady-state theoretical model. Furthermore, the most important effects, taking into consideration are quantum interference, magnetic flux, and interface structure. Our results show that the connection of the molecule to the two leads, the number of rings, the magnetic flux, and the geometrical structure of the molecule play an important role in determining the energy gap of molecular structures. © 2017 Elsevier LtdElectron transport; I-V characteristics; Single molecule; Transmission probabilityAnthracene; Aromatic hydrocarbons; Computation theory; Electron transport properties; Electronic properties; Magnetic flux; Magnetism; Molecular structure; Molecules; Naphthalene; Open systems; Electron transport; Geometrical structure; Interface structures; IV characteristics; Quantum interference; Single molecule; Theoretical modeling; Transmission probabilities; Density functional theoryGubin, S., Gulayev, Y.V., Khomutov, G., Kislov, V., Kolesov, V., Soldatov, E., Sulaimankulov, K., Trifonov, A., Molecular clusters as building blocks for nanoelectronics: the first demonstration of a cluster single-electron tunnelling transistor at room temperature (2002) Nanotechnology, 13, p. 185; Sparks, R.E., García-Suárez, V., Manrique, D.Z., Lambert, C.J., Quantum interference in single molecule electronic systems (2011) Phys.

It was found that the welding current has profound effect on the load–displacement characteristics. In the low welding current, welds failed in interfacial failure mode. Increasing welding current resulted in sufficient weld nugget growth to promote double-sided pullout failure mode with improved mechanical properties. Further increase in the welding current caused expulsion and failure mode was changed to single-sided pullout with reduced energy absorption capability. It was found that the fusion zone size is the key parameter controlling the mechanical properties of DP600 resistance spot welds in terms of peak load, maximum displacement and failure energy. © 2016 Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining.Dual phase steel; Failure energy; Failure modem; Resistance spot weldingElectric welding; Energy absorption; Failure modes; Mechanical properties; Resistance welding; Spot welding; Welding; Welds; Displacement characteristic; Dual-phase steel; Failure energy; Failure mode transition; Interfacial failures; Maximum displacement; Resistance spot weld; Resistance spot welding; Failure (mechanical)Pouranvari, M., Influence of welding parameters on peak load and energy absorption of dissimilar resistance spot welds of DP600 and AISI1008 steels (2011) Can.

In this study, we have carried out first principles calculations of the structural and electronic properties of a germanium-doped fullerenes C20 bowl using density functional theory (DFT) at the B3LYP/3-21G level through the Gaussian 09W program packages. The doping effect has been investigated by varying the number of Ge dopants and by considering many doping positions for the same number. By Ge doping, N-type doping is induced in the fullerene C20 bowl. While the planar structure of the fullerene C20 bowl remains unaffected by Ge doping, and the electronic properties change from those of a semiconductor to a conductor with an increasing number of dopants. The electronic properties include the optimized structures, density of states (DOS) analysis, total energies, dipole moment, HOMO energies, Fermi level energies, LUMO energies, energy gaps, and work functions. It has been noted that isomers molded by choosing different doping positions differ significantly in the bond length, band gap and stability introduced. The band gap is found to be at a maximum when the Ge dopants are placed in the same ring points of the fullerene, due to the combined influence of symmetry breaking of the ring, and the band gaps are closed when Ge dopants are placed in opposite positions. These interesting results provide for the possibility of designing the band gap of a fullerene C20 bowl as required, and for its application in nanoelectronic and solar cell devices. © 2017B3LYP; DFT; Energy gap; Fullerene C20 bowl; HOMO; LUMOLi, D., Kaner, R.B., Graphene-based materials (2008) Nat.

Conduction of the activation process was performed at varying impregnation ratios (0.5-2.0). Thermal decomposition was determined using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Porosity characterizations of AC were conducted by using N2 adsorption-desorption in order to characterise properties like pore volume, surface area, and micropore volume. To detect the presence of functional groups which were found on the surface of AC, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis was utilised. Morphology of AC was determined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). Experimental results showed that maximum AC surface area was 1737 m2/g. Activation temperature was revealed to be 700°C, with chemical impregnation ratio of zinc chloride to a precursor equal to 1.5/1. © 2017, Chulalongkorn University 1.

Syndecan-1, a heparan sulfate proteoglycan, has been previously identified as a potential prognostic biomarker by multiple studies at the tissue and serum level. However, other studies have questioned its utility. Methods: Anti-Syndecan-1 immunohistochemistry was carried out on 157 prostate tissue samples (including cancerous, adjacent normal tissue, and non-diseased prostate) from three independent cohorts of patients. A population of Syndecan-1 positive stromal cells was identified and the number and morphological parameters of these cells quantified. The identity of the Syndecan-1-positive stromal cells was assessed by multiplex immunofluorescence using a range of common cell lineage markers. Finally, the burden of Syndecan-1 positive stromal cells was tested for association with clinical parameters. Results: We identified a previously unreported cell type which is marked by Syndecan-1 expression and is found in the stroma of prostate tumors and adjacent normal tissue but not in non-diseased prostate. We call these cells Prostate Cancer Syndecan-1 Positive (PCSP) cells. Immunofluorescence analysis revealed that the PCSP cell population did not co-stain with markers of common prostate epithelial, stromal, or immune cell populations. However, morphological analysis revealed that PCSP cells are often elongated and displayed prominent lamellipodia, suggesting they are an unidentified migratory cell population. Analysis of clinical parameters showed that PCSP cells were found with a frequency of 20-35% of all tumors evaluated, but were not present in non-diseased normal tissue. Interestingly, a subset of primary Gleason 5 prostate tumors had a high burden of PCSP cells. Conclusions: The current study identifies PCSP cells as a novel, potentially migratory cell type, which is marked by Syndecan-1 expression and is found in the stroma of prostate carcinomas, adjacent normal tissue, but not in non-diseased prostate. A subset of poor prognosis high Gleason grade 5 tumors had a particularly high PCSP cell burden, suggesting an association between this unidentified cell type and tumor aggressiveness. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.CD138; immunohistochemistry; prostate cancer; SDC1; stromal cells; Syndecan-1syndecan 1; syndecan 1; tumor marker; adult; aged; Article; cancer grading; cancer prognosis; controlled study; Gleason score; human; human tissue; immunofluorescence; immunohistochemistry; lamellipodium; major clinical study; male; priority journal; prostate cancer; prostate cancer syndecan 1 positive cell; protein expression; stroma; stroma cell; cell motion; immunology; metabolism; middle aged; pathology; physiology; procedures; prognosis; prostate; prostate tumor; stroma cell; Aged; Biomarkers, Tumor; Cell Movement; Humans; Immunohistochemistry; Male; Middle Aged; Neoplasm Grading; Prognosis; Prostate; Prostatic Neoplasms; Stromal Cells; Syndecan-1syndecan 1, 128559-86-4; Biomarkers, Tumor; Syndecan-1facilities and Doctor Gordon Taylor for statistical advice.

In this study, we investigate and discuss the tuning of the electronic properties of the fullerene C20 cage via various consternations and locations of silicon atoms. All calculations are based on the density functional theory (DFT) at the B3LYP/3-21G level through the Gaussian 09W program package. The optimized structures, density of state (DOS) analysis, total energies, dipole moments, HOMO energies, Fermi level energies, LUMO energies, energy gaps, and the work functions were performed and discussed. Our results show that the electronic properties of C20 cage do not only depend on the silicon impurity concentrations, but also depend on the geometrical pattern of silicon impurities in the C20 cage. The tuning of the electronic properties leads to significant changes in the charge transport and the absorption spectra for C20 cage via engineering the energy gap. So, we suggest that substitutional impurities are the best viable option for enhancement of desired electronic properties of C20 cage for using these structures in nanoelectronics and solar cell applications. © 2017, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.B3LYP; DFT; electronic properties; energy gap; fullerene C20Weltner, W., Jr., van Zee, R.J., (1989) Chem.

The single benzene ring was threaded by a magnetic flux. The magnetic flux and applied gate voltages were considered as the key tuning parameter in the XNOR and NAND gates operation. All the calculations are achieved by using steady-state theoretical model, which is based on the time-dependent Hamiltonian model. The transmission probability and the electric current are calculated as functions of electron energy and bias voltage, respectively. The application of the anticipated results can be a base for the progress of molecular electronics. © 2017 Elsevier LtdNAND molecular logic gate; Single benzene molecule; Transmission probability; XNOR molecular logic gateBenzene; Logic gates; Magnetic flux; NAND circuits; Benzene molecules; Electron energies; Electronic transport; Molecular logic gates; Theoretical modeling; Time-dependent Hamiltonians; Transmission probabilities; Tuning parameter; Computer circuitsGhasemi, M., Moaiyeri, M.H., Navi, K., arXiv preprint arXiv: 1201.2043; Mardanya, S., Karmakar, S., Das, S., Baitalik, S., (2015) Sens.

QD-WL transitions, which were not included in any other bistability work in QD structures, are also modeled here. Pumping optical field reduces the threshold of optical bistability (OB). The coupling field, which dressing DQD states and strengthens Kerr nonlinearity are increased. It is shown that optical multistability (OM) was the figure of merit for the stability behavior in DQD system, in the contrary with other researches, as a result from considering the calculation of all transition momenta, here. Additionally, considering QD-WL transition reduces OM threshold. © 2017 Elsevier LtdLadder-plus-Y; Optical multistability; Quantum dotLadders; Nanocrystals; Density matrix theory; Double quantum dots; Kerr nonlinearity; Momentum matrix element; Optical multistability; Optical stability; Stability behavior; Unidirectional ring cavity; Semiconductor quantum dotsHamedi, H.R., Nasab, A.K., Raheli, A., Sahrai, M., Coherent control of optical bistability and multistability via double dark resonances (DDRs) (2014) Opt.

In the course of the improvement, when the fault-tolerant routing problem was presented in optimization form, an optimality criterion has been formulated, which contains the conditions for path protection when it is possible to implement both single path and multipath routing strategies. The novelty of the proposed improvement lies in the feet that the path protection conditions are included in the optimality criterion in bilinear form. The efficiency and adequacy of the proposed improvement of the flow-based model of fault-tolerant routing has been confirmed in a number of computational examples in solving single path and multipath routing problems when implementing the path protection scheme in the network. © 2017 IEEE.Fast rerouting; Fault-tolerance; Flow-based model; Multipath; Path protection scheme; RoutingNetwork architecture; Optimization; Fast rerouting; Flow-based models; Multipath; Path protection; Routing; Fault toleranceRak, J., (2015) Resilient Routing in Communication Networks (Computer Communications and Networks), 181p. , 1st edition, Springer; Rak, J., Papadimitnou, D., Medermayer, H., Romero, P., Information-driven network resilience: Research challenges and perspectives (2017) Optical Switching and Networking, 23, pp. 156-178. , January; Papan, J., Segec, P., Drozdova, M., Mikus, L., Moravcik, M., Hrabovsky, J., The IPFRR mechanism inspired by BIER algorithm (2016) IEEE 2016 International Conference on Emerging ELearmng Technologies and Applications (ICETA), pp. 257-262. , 24-25 Nov; Yeremenko, O., Tanki, N., Hailan, A.M., Fault-tolerant IP routing flow-based model (2016) Modern Problems of Radio Engineering Telecommunications and Computer Science, Proceedings of the International Conference TCSET'2016, pp. 655-657. , Lviv-Slavsko, Ukraine, February 23-26; Lemeshko, O.V., Yeremenko, O.S., Tanki, N., Hailan, A.M., Fault-tolerance improvement for core and edge of IP network (2016) Xlth International Scientific and Technical Conference Computer Science and Information Technology (CSIT2016).

One promising application of this structure is usage as a nanosensor for various gas molecules. The main purpose of the current study is to exploit the potential applicability of using GNFs as a nanosensor for small gas molecules (CO2, NO2, N2, O2, CO, and NO). For this reason, the interactions between these molecules in the horizontal and vertical directions with GNFs have been investigated by means of the density functional theory (DFT) method at the B3LYP/3–21 G level with the Gaussian 09 program. The band gaps, density of states (DOS), dipole moments, total energies, HOMO and LUMO energies, and Fermi level energies are calculated for GNFs with and without the above gas molecules. We found that GNFs are very sensitive to these gas molecules in the horizontal direction. The band gap was affected and reduced its value with these gas molecules. All the systems became unstable with gas molecules due to the total energies being reduced with gas molecules in the two types of directions,. An important result is that the interactions of these gas molecules in the horizontal direction results in fairly large alteration of the dipole moments of the GNFs and slight changes in the vertical directions in comparison with the pristine case of GNFs. The strong interactions between the O2 and the GNFs induce dramatic changes to the GNF's electronic properties and lead to a large reduction in the energy gap of the GNFs. However, the results of this work open a way for the development of new and effective nanosensors for gas molecules based on functionalized GNFs. © 2017 The Physical Society of the Republic of China (Taiwan)Adsorption energies; Band gap; DFT; DOS; GNFsSaito, R., Dresselhaus, G., Dresselhaus, M.S., Physical properties of carbon nanotubes (1998) World scientific; Watson, J., Ihokura, K., Special issue on gas-sensing materials (1999) Mater.

Samples of the short beam shear test were cut using CNC machine. The experiments were conducted according to the ASTM-D-2344 standard. The fracture surfaces of the laminate samples were observed by scanning electron and optical microscopy. The major benefits of the current study are that the modification process by adding a certain amount of the SiC particles significantly enhanced the interlaminar shear strength of CFRE, GFRE, and KFRE composites as the comparison to the conventional ones. © 2017, © The Author(s) 2017.fiber reinforced-polymer; Interlaminar shear strength; particle filled; short beam shearAramid fibers; Computer control systems; Epoxy resins; Fiber reinforced plastics; Glass; Laminates; Particle reinforced composites; Reinforcement; Shear flow; Shear strength; Silicon carbide; Comparative studies; Fiber reinforced polymers; Fracture surfaces; Inter-laminar shear strengths; Laminate samples; Modification process; Scanning electrons; Short beam shear; Filled polymersAskeland, D.R., (1994) The science and engineering of materials, , 3rd ed, Boston, Mass, PWS Publishing Company; Kalpakjian, S., Schmid, S.R., (2010) Manufacturing engineering and technology, , 6th ed, NY, Prentice Hall; Takeda, T., Shindo, Y., Fukuzaki, T., Short beam interlaminar shear behavior and electrical resistance-based damage self-sensing of woven carbon/epoxy composite laminates in a cryogenic environment (2014) J Compos Mater, 48, pp. 119-128; Yokozeki, T., Ogasawara, T., Experimental evaluation of gas permeability through damaged composite laminates for cryogenic tank (2009) Compos Sci Technol, 69, pp. 1334-1340; Rosselli, F., Santare, M.H., Comparison of the short beam shear (SBS) and interlaminar shear device (ISD) tests (1997) Compos Part A, 28A, pp. 587-594; Whitney, J.M., Daniel, I.M., Pipes, R.B., (1984) Experimental mechanics of fibre reinforced composite materials.

The α-κ-μ shadowed fading channel contains the generalized α-κ-μ fading and gamma distribution which represent the impact of multipath fading and shadowing, respectively. The performance of communication systems with dual-receiver switch and stay combining (SSC) in non-identical α-κ-μ shadowed fading channels is evaluated via analyzing different performance metrics. Specifically, the outage probability (OP), average bit error probability (ABEP), average channel capacity (ACC) and average detection probability of energy detection (ED) that is widely utilized in cognitive radio (CR) and ultra-wide band (UWD) systems are derived. The derived expressions are verified by the numerical results for various scenarios. A significant improvement in the performance of wireless communications systems as well as ED can be observed when the fading parameters increase. © 2017 IEEE.energy detection; mixture gamma distribution; Switch and stay combining; α-κ-μ shadowed fadingBit error rate; Cognitive radio; Cognitive systems; Fading (radio); Mixtures; Multipath fading; Probability; Probability distributions; Ultra-wideband (UWB); Wireless telecommunication systems; Average bit error probability; Average channel capacities; Detection probabilities; Energy detection; Mixture Gamma distributions; Statistical properties; Switch-and-stay combining; Wireless communications system; Fading channelsSimon, M.K., Alouini, M.-S., (2005) Digital Communication over Fading Channels A Unified Approach to Performance Analysis, , 2nd ed.

Different parameters were considered such as the electric potential (e.g., 24, 40 and 60 V), hydraulic retention time (HRT) (e.g., 40, 60, 80, 100 and 120 min), sodium chloride (NaCl) concentration (e.g., 1, 3, 5 and 7%), pH (e.g., 3, 7 and 9), electrodes materials [e.g., aluminum (Al) and iron (Fe)] and distance between electrodes (e.g., 1, 2 and 3 cm). The best operational condition of electrolysis was then recommended. The electric potential of 60 V with HRT of 120 min at 5% of NaCl solution using Al as anode and Fe as cathode (kept at a distance of 3 cm) was the most efficient condition which increased the removal efficiencies of various parameters such as turbidity, salinity, total suspended solids (TSS), total dissolved solids (TDS), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD) and heavy metals (e.g., Zn and Mn). The higher removal percentages of many parameters, especially COD (94%) and Mn (93%) indicated that the electrolysis is an efficient technique for multi-pollutants (e.g., organic, inorganic and heavy metals) removal from the landfill leachate. © 2017 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.Electric potential; electrode; electrolysis; leachate; NaCl; pHAluminum; Aluminum chloride; Biochemical oxygen demand; Chemical oxygen demand; Dissolved oxygen; Efficiency; Electric potential; Electrodes; Electrolysis; Heavy metals; Land fill; Manganese; Organic pollutants; pH; Pollution; Sodium chloride; Biochemical oxygen demands (BOD); Hydraulic retention time; Landfill leachate treatment; Leachates; NaCl; Operational conditions; Total dissolved solids; Total suspended solids; Leachate treatment; aluminum; iron; manganese; sodium chloride; zinc ion; heavy metal; sodium chloride; water pollutant; Article; biochemical oxygen demand; chemical oxygen demand; concentration (parameters); electric conductivity; electric potential; electrode; electrolysis; hydraulic retention time; landfill leachate; osmotic pressure; retention time; salinity; soil acidity; soil pollutant; soil treatment; suspended particulate matter; turbidity; waste component removal; analysis; chemistry; electricity; electrode; electrolysis; pH; procedures; time factor; water management; water pollutant; Biological Oxygen Demand Analysis; Electricity; Electrodes; Electrolysis; Hydrogen-Ion Concentration; Metals, Heavy; Sodium Chloride; Time Factors; Water Pollutants, Chemical; Water Purificationaluminum, 7429-90-5; iron, 14093-02-8, 53858-86-9, 7439-89-6; manganese, 16397-91-4, 7439-96-5; sodium chloride, 7647-14-5; zinc ion, 23713-49-7; Metals, Heavy; Sodium Chloride; Water Pollutants, ChemicalChopra, A.K., Sharma, A.K., Kumar, V., Overview of electrolytic treatment: An alternative technology for purification of wastewater (2011) Arch.

Hormones level (FSH, LH, and testosterone) were determined by enzyme linked fluorescent assay (ELFA) using the Bio Mérieux VIDAS Automated Immunoassay System. Results: Our results found significantly higher Cd, Mo, and Pb levels in Petrol workers compared to control (p < 0.05). While no significantly differences were detected between FSH levels in control and Petrol workers groups, significantly higher testosterone level was found in Petrol workers compared to control (p < 0.05). Conversely, significantly lower LH level in Petrol workers group than it in control group (p < 0.05). Conclusion: the petrol station workers exposure to Cd, Pb, and Mol which lead to increase its levels in their blood due to neglect the occupational safety instructions. Thus associated positively with the testosterone level and negatively with the LH level in their blood. © 2009-2017, JGPT.cadmium; follitropin; lead; luteinizing hormone; molybdenum; testosterone; adult; Article; atomic absorption spectrometry; blood sampling; controlled study; fluorescence analysis; human; immunoassay; Iraq; male; occupational exposure; occupational hazard; occupational safety; petrochemical industry; trace metal blood level; work environmentcadmium, 22537-48-0, 7440-43-9; follitropin, 9002-68-0; lead, 7439-92-1, 13966-28-4; luteinizing hormone, 39341-83-8, 9002-67-9; molybdenum, 7439-98-7; testosterone, 58-22-0Al-Rudainy, L.A., Blood lead level among fuel station workers (2010) Oman Med J, 25, pp. 208-211; Faroon, O., Ashizawa, A., Wright, S., Tucker, P., Jenkins, K., Ingerman, L., Rudisill, C., (2012) In Toxicological Profile for Cadmium, , Atlanta (GA); Abadin, H., Ashizawa, A., Stevens, Y.W., Llados, F., Diamond, G., Sage, G., Citra, M., Swarts, S.G., (2007) In Toxicological Profile for Lead, , Atlanta (GA); Greger, J.L., Nutrition versus toxicology of manganese in humans: evaluation of potential biomarkers (1999) Neurotoxicology, 20, pp. 205-212; Meeker, J.D., Rossano, M.G., Protas, B., Padmanahban, V., Diamond, M.P., Puscheck, E., Daly, D., Wirth, J.J., Environmental exposure to metals and male reproductive hormones: circulating testosterone is inversely associated with blood molybdenum (2010) Fertil Steril, 93, pp. 130-140; Hernandez-Ochoa, I., Garcia-Vargas, G., Lopez-Carrillo, L., Rubio-Andrade, M., Moran-Martinez, J., Cebrian, M.E., Quintanilla-Vega, B., Low lead environmental exposure alters semen quality and sperm chromatin condensation in northern Mexico (2005) Reprod Toxicol, 20, pp. 221-228; Jurasovic, J., Cvitkovic, P., Pizent, A., Colak, B., Telisman, S., Semen quality and reproductive endocrine function with regard to blood cadmium in Croatian male subjects (2004) Biometals, 17, pp. 735-743; De Rosa, M., Zarrilli, S., Paesano, L., Carbone, U., Boggia, B., Petretta, M., Maisto, A., Colao, A., Traffic pollutants affect fertility in men (2003) Hum Reprod, 18, pp. 1055-1061; Telisman, S., Colak, B., Pizent, A., Jurasovic, J., Cvitkovic, P., Reproductive toxicity of low-level lead exposure in men (2007) Environ Res, 105, pp. 256-266; Wyrobek, A.J., Schrader, S.M., Perreault, S.D., Fenster, L., Huszar, G., Katz, D.F., Osorio, A.M., Evenson, D., Assessment of reproductive disorders and birth defects in communities near hazardous chemical sites III.

Cold spray (CS) coatings of pure Al, blended Al/TiC and satellited Al/TiC were applied to Al substrates. A seven-fold increase in TiC area fraction was measured in the satellited coating compared to that in the blended coating. Coating thickness also increased as a result of increased ceramic deposition. Cross-sectional analysis revealed that the cohesion achieved between Al and TiC, during satelliting process, survives the CS process, and is hence an effective method of producing ceramic-metal coatings. © 2017 Elsevier B.V.Aluminium; Cold spray; Metal-ceramic; Satelliting; Titanium carbideAluminum; Ceramic coatings; Ceramic materials; Cermets; Powder metals; Sprayed coatings; Thickness measurement; Titanium carbide; Area fraction; Ceramic depositions; Coating thickness; Cold spray; Cold-sprayed; Cross sectional analysis; Preparation method; Satelliting; Aluminum coatingsSelcuk, C., Kennedy, A., Al–TiC composite made by the addition of master alloys pellets synthesised from reacted elemental powders (2006) Mater.

In the numerical study, finite volume method with standard k-ε turbulence model in three dimensional domains was selected. Three different types of water based (Al2O3, CuO, TiO2) nanofluids were employed in this simulation. The adopted boundary conditions were, expansion ratio (ER = 1.25, 1.67, and 2), Reynolds number ranging from 20, 000 to 50, 000, water based nanofluids used Al2O3, CuO, TiO2with volume fractions varied between 0 and 2% at different heat fluxes, varied from 4000 W/m2to 16, 000 W/m2. For experimental study, Al2O3water based nanofluid was used to validate the numerical results. The results show that the volume fraction of nanofluid and Reynolds number significantly affect the surface heat transfer coefficient; an increase in surface heat transfer coefficient was noted when both volume fraction of nanofluids and Reynolds number were increased for all the cases. The improvement of heat transfer was about 36.6% for pure water at the expansion ratio of 2 compared to heat transfer obtained in a straight pipe. Augmentation of heat transfer could be achieved by using nanofluid at expansion ratio 2 where the total improvements were about 45.2% (TiO2), 47.3%(CuO), and 49%(Al2O3). Also the increment in the pressure drop was about 42% for pure water at expansion ratio 2 compared with straight pipe whereas by using nanofluid they were 62.6% (TiO2), 65.4% (CuO) and 57.6% (Al2O3). Good agreements were observed between numerical and experimental results all the way. © 2017 Elsevier Masson SASNanofluids; Separation flow; Sudden expansion; Thermal performance; Turbulent heat transferAluminum;

The novelty of the method is consists of the introduction of a two-level hierarchy of calculating the routing variables responsible for the formation of the primary and backup paths and ensuring a balanced load of the network links, which meets the requirements of the Traffic Engineering concept. The method provides implementation of the path and bandwidth protection scheme for Fast ReRouting. Within the framework of the proposed method, the two-level hierarchy of calculations introduced in accordance with the interaction prediction principle of the theory of hierarchical multi-level systems. The analysis of the proposed two-level method confirmed its functionality and efficiency from the point of view of obtaining optimal solutions for ensuring balanced load of communication links and implementing the required network element protection schemes for Fast ReRouting in SDN. © 2017 IEEE.backup path; Fast ReRouting; flow-based model; hierarchy; primary path; routing; SDNHierarchical systems; Backup path; Fast rerouting; Flow-based models; hierarchy; Primary path; routing; Software defined networkingWhite, R., Tantsura, J.E., (2015) Navigating Network Complexity: Next-generation Routing with SDN, Service Virtualization, and Service Chaining, , Addison-Wesley Professional; Monge, A.S., Szarkowicz, K.G., (2016) MPLS in the SDN Era: Interoperable Scenarios to Make Networks Scale to New Services, , O'Reilly Media; Lin, S.C., Wang, P., Luo, M., Control traffic balancing in software defined networks (2016) Computer Networks, 106, pp. 260-271. , September; Seok, Y., Lee, Y., Choi, Y., Kim, C., Dynamic constrained traffic engineering for multicast routing (2002) Proc.

Many scheduling algorithms have been proposed to schedule the tasks in cloud computing environment such as (SJF) and (FCFS) algorithms. This paper aims to improve the shortest job first scheduling algorithm in the cloud computing. In tasks scheduling (TS), the most important parameters are makespan and response time. Therefore, we have proposed a Modified Shortest Job First algorithm (MSJF) to minimize the completion time of the last task (Makespan) and minimize the average response time with maximizing the resources utilization. MSJF has two functions, one is calculating the average of tasks length and the other one is Load-Balancing between the virtual machines. One of the important advantages of MSJF is sending the longest tasks to the fastest Machine. We compared the result of our proposed algorithm MSJF with SJF and FCFS. The performance of MSJF is better compared to SJF and FCFS. © 2016 IEEE.Cloud computing; Load Balancing; Makespan; Response time; Shortest Job First Scheduling; SJFCloud computing; Optimization; Resource allocation; Response time (computer systems); Scheduling; Virtual machine; Cloud computing environments; Cloud providers; Completion time; Makespan; Resources utilizations; Service provider; Tasks scheduling; Scheduling algorithmsKarthick, A.V., Ramaraj, E., Reservation and on-demand priority based queue job scheduling for cloud computing (2014) International Journal, 1 (2); Yeboah, T., Odabi, I., Hiran, K.K., An integration of round robin with shortest job first algorithm for cloud computing environment (2015) International Conference on Management, Communication and Technology, 3 (1), pp. 1-5; Aldulaimy, A., Job classification in cloud computing: The classification effects on energy efficiency (2015) 2015 IEEE/ACM 8th International Conference on Utility and Cloud Computing (UCC), , IEEE; Haidri, Abbas, R., Katti, C.P., Saxena, P.C., A load balancing strategy for Cloud Computing environment (2014) Signal Propagation and IEEE; Chaudhary, D., Kumar, B., Analytical study of load scheduling algorithms in cloud computing (2014) Parallel, Distributed and Grid Computing (PDGC), 2014 International Conference on, , IEEE; Singh, R.M., Paul, S., Kumar, A., Task scheduling in cloud computing: Review (2014) International Journal of Computer Science and Information Technologies, 5 (6), pp. 7940-7944; Gahlawat, M., Sharma, P., Analysis and performance assessment of CPU scheduling algorithms in cloud using cloud sim (2013) Analysis, 5 (9); Sharma, M.K., Bansal, K.K., Fuzzy analysis of shortest job first (2015) International Journal of Engineering Research & Management Technology, pp. 125-128; Srinivasan, R.K., Suma, V., Nedu, V., An enhanced load balancing technique for efficient load distribution in cloud-based IT industries (2013) Intelligent Informatics.

In this study the extraction of lipid from sardine fish waste was carried out using microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) and compared with Soxhlets and Hara and Radin methods. A mixture of two organic solvents isopropanol/hexane and distilled water were used for MAE and Hara and Radin methods. Meanwhile, Soxhlet method utilized only hexane as solvent. The results show that the higher yield of lipid 80.5 mg/g was achieved using distilled water in MAE method at 10 min extraction time. Soxhlet extraction method only produced 46.6 mg/g of lipid after 4 hours of extraction time. Lowest yield of lipid was found at 15.8 mg/g using Hara and Radin method. Based on aforementioned results, it can be concluded MAE method is superior compared to the Soxhlet and Hara and Radin methods which make it an attractive route to extract lipid from fish waste. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Engineers; Fish; Distilled water; Extraction time; Fish wastes; Higher yield; Iso-propanols; Microwave-assisted extraction; Soxhlet extraction; Value added products; ExtractionTan, B.P., Ishakm, N., Badariah, M.A., (2015) Food and Fertilizer Technology Center, , http://www.fftc.agnet.org/library.php?func=viewamp;id=20150106111454, 3 April 2015; Tan, B.P., (2014) Food and Fertilizer Technology Center, , http://www.agnet.org/library.php?func=viewamp;id=20140401154124, 3 April 2015; Mercer, P., Armenta, R.E., (2011) Eur.

There are other malicious node(s) which can be either inserted or infected which are trying to disturb the operation of the network. The nodes are cooperating to defend the network (and eventually themselves) by isolating the misbehaved node(s). We approach this problem using Evolutionary Game Theory (EGT), and characterize the robust equilibrium point(s) for this game. The game is formulated such that all the nodes take part in the decision process to avoid problems caused by unsuccessful revocation or over reacted revocation decisions. Each node in the network (interchangeably called benign node to distinguish it from the malicious node or the intruder) has three decisions to make: (a) abstain or do nothing; (b) self-sacrifice by disconnecting the intruder and itself; and (c) voting to isolate the intruding node. Each decision has its advantages and disadvantages and the Replicator Dynamics (RD) is used to show the dynamics of the nodes' decisions. By simulating the RD equation, two different cases emerge as Evolutionary Stable Strategies (ESS) where one of them is the desired ESS, and the other is not. Phase portrait diagrams are used to characterize the fraction of the M nodes needed to choose each one of these ESS's, the rate of convergence, and the effect of increasing the cooperation rewards. © 2017 IEEE.Ephemeral Networks; Evolutionary Game Theory; Replicator Dynamics; SecurityAd hoc networks; Dynamics; Wireless ad hoc networks; Decision process; Equilibrium point; Evolutionary game models; Evolutionary game theory; Evolutionary stable strategies; Rate of convergence; Replicator dynamics; Security; Game theoryRaya, M., Manshaei, M.H., Félegyházi, M., Hubaux, J.-P., Revocation games in ephemeral networks (2008) Proceedings of the 15th ACM Conference on Computer and Communications Security.

The electronic properties of the GNS are investigated with and without various concentrations of phosphorus impurities in the various sites by using the first-principles of the density functional theory (DFT) method, which realized in Quantum Espresso packages. My founding results show that the electronic band structure of the GNS is not only depending on the concentrations of phosphorus impurities, but also depending on the geometrical pattern of phosphorus impurities in the GNS. Furthermore, I found out that there is an electronic band gap with a single phosphorus impurities and it is increased with increasing the concentrations of phosphorus impurities. Also, total energy is affected and decreased with increasing the concentrations of phosphorus impurities, which is led to make all structures are unstable and more reactive. Then, phosphorus impurities are significantly contributing to engineering, control and alter the electronic properties of the GNS, which is very important in various applications. © 2017 Elsevier LtdDFT; Electronic band gap; GNS; Phosphorus impuritiesDensity functional theory; Electronic properties; Energy gap; Nanosheets; Phosphorus; Chemical doping; Density functional theory methods; Electronic band gaps; Electronic band structure; Electronic properties of graphene; First principles; Geometrical patterns; Graphene nanosheets; GrapheneGeim, A.K., Novoselov, K.S., The rise of graphene (2007) Nat.

A reductive amination method was developed for the tagging of sugars with the aim of it becoming part of a metabolomics work flow. The best separation of the common hexoses (glucose, fructose, mannose and galactose) was achieved when 2H5-aniline was used as the tagging reagent in combination with separation on a ZICHILIC column. The method was used to tag a range of sugars including pentoses and uronic acids. The method was simple to perform and was able to improve both the separation of sugars and their response to electrospray ionisation. The method was applied to the profiling of sugars in urine where a number of hexose and pentose isomers could be observed. It was also applied to the quantification of sugars in post-mortem brain samples from three control samples and three samples from individuals who had suffered from bipolar disorder. © 2017 Elsevier B.V.High resolution mass spectrometry; Hydrophilic interaction chromatography; Monosaccharides; Reductive aminationAmines; Electrospray ionization; Glucose; Isomers; Liquid chromatography; Mass spectrometry; Biological samples; Bipolar disorder; Control samples; High resolution mass spectrometry; Hydrophilic interaction chromatography; Metabolomics; Monosaccharides; Reductive amination; Hydrophilicity; aniline; aniline derivative; carbohydrate; amination; brain; chemical phenomena; chemistry; clinical chemistry; cytology; high performance liquid chromatography; human; isomerism; mass spectrometry; oxidation reduction reaction; procedures; urine; Amination; Aniline Compounds; Brain; Chromatography, High Pressure Liquid; Clinical Chemistry Tests; Humans; Hydrophobic and Hydrophilic Interactions; Isomerism; Mass Spectrometry; Oxidation-Reduction; Sugarsaniline, 142-04-1, 62-53-3; aniline; Aniline Compounds; SugarsYan, J., Shi, S., Wang, H., Liu, R., Li, N., Chen, Y., Wang, S., Neutral monosaccharide composition analysis of plant-derived oligo-and polysaccharides by high performance liquid chromatography (2016) Carbohydr.

We have compared the thermoelectric properties of three zinc porphyrin (ZnP) dimers and a ZnP monomer and found that the "edge-over-edge" dimer formed from stacked ZnP rings possesses a high electrical conductance, negligible phonon thermal conductance and a high Seebeck coefficient of the order of 300 μV K-1. These combine to yield a predicted room-temperature figure of merit of ZT ≈ 4, which is the highest room-temperature ZT ever reported for a single organic molecule. This high value of ZT is a consequence of the low phonon thermal conductance arising from the stacked nature of the porphyrin rings, which hinders phonon transport through the edge-over-edge molecule and enhances the Seebeck coefficient.

In this regard, effective approach is associated with the implementation of hierarchical routing. This involves carrying out a structural and functional decomposition of the network, based on the introduction and supporting of multi-level routing decisions. However, the existing protocol implementation hierarchical routing does not contribute to maximization of the scalability of routing decisions because that only applied structural hierarchy and functional aspects are not involved. In this paper the method of hierarchical inter-domain routing based on the goal coordination principle was supposed. © 2016 IEEE.goal coordination method; inter-area routing; iteration; multipath routing; single-path routing; telecommunication networkIterative methods; Routing algorithms; Scalability; Telecommunication networks; Coordination methods; inter-area routing; iteration; Multi path routing; Single-path routing; Network routingMoy, J., (1991) RFC 1247.

Herein, we demonstrate a probe-style electrochemical sensor using highly flexible and conductive multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNT) yarns. TheMWNTyarn-based sensors can be fabricated onto micro Pt-wire with a controlled diameter varying from 100 to 300 µm, and then further modified with Nafion via a dip-coating approach. The fabricated micro-sized sensors were characterized by electron microscopy, Raman, FTIR, electrical, and electrochemical measurements. For the first time, the MWNT/Nafion yarn-based probe sensors have been assembled and assessed for high-performance dopamine sensing, showing a significant improvement in both sensitivity and selectivity in dopamine detection in presence of ascorbic acid and uric acid. It offers the potential to be further developed as implantable probe sensors. © 2017 by the authors.

Corticosteroids can have limited therapeutic effects in COPD patients. NTHi causes corticosteroid insensitive cytokine production from COPD alveolar macrophages. We investigated the mechanisms by which NTHi causes corticosteroid insensitive inflammatory responses, and the effects of NTHi exposure on COPD macrophage polarisation. Method: Alveolar macrophages from COPD patients and controls were exposed to NTHi in conjunction with the corticosteroid dexamethasone and/or the p38 MAPK inhibitor BIRB-796. Cytokine release, GR phosphorylation and modulation and macrophage phenotype were analysed. Results: Dexamethasone significantly inhibited NTHi induced TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-10 from COPD macrophages but, CXCL8 was not suppressed. BIRB-796 combined with dexamethasone caused significantly greater inhibition of all cytokines than either drug alone (p<0.05 all comparisons). NTHi caused phosphorylation of GR S226 reducing GR nuclear localisation, an effect regulated by p38 MAPK. NTHi altered macrophage polarisation by increasing IL-10 and decreasing CD36, CD206, CD163 and HLA-DR. Conclusion: NTHi exposure causes p38 MAPK dependent GR phosphorylation associated with decreased GR function in COPD alveolar macrophages. Combining a p38 MAPK inhibitor with corticosteroids can enhance anti-inflammatory effects during NTHi exposure of COPD alveolar macrophages. NTHi causes macrophage polarisation that favours bacterial persistence. © 2017 The Author(s).CD163 antigen; CD206 antigen; CD36 antigen; dexamethasone; glucocorticoid receptor; HLA DR antigen; interleukin 10; interleukin 6; interleukin 8; lymphocyte antigen; mitogen activated protein kinase 14; tumor necrosis factor; unclassified drug; corticosteroid; cytokine; dexamethasone; doramapimod; naphthalene derivative; pyrazole derivative; adult; Article; chronic obstructive lung disease; clinical article; controlled study; corticosteroid insensitivity; cytokine production; cytokine release; down regulation; drug sensitivity; enzyme activation; enzyme activity; female; Haemophilus infection; human; immune response; lung alveolus macrophage; male; non typeable Haemophilus influenza infection; non typeable Haemophilus influenza infection; phenotype; polarization; protein localization; protein phosphorylation; aged; cell culture; chronic obstructive lung disease; dose response; drug effects; drug resistance; Haemophilus infection; immunology; lung alveolus; macrophage; pathology; Adrenal Cortex Hormones; Aged; Cells, Cultured; Cytokines; Dexamethasone; Dose-Response Relationship, Drug; Drug Resistance; Haemophilus Infections; Humans; Macrophages; Naphthalenes; Pulmonary Alveoli; Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive; Pyrazolesdexamethasone, 50-02-2; interleukin 8, 114308-91-7; doramapimod, 285983-48-4; Adrenal Cortex Hormones; BIRB 796; Cytokines; Dexamethasone; Naphthalenes; PyrazolesHigher Committee for Education Development in Iraq, HCEDThis research was funded by The Higher Committee for Education Development in Iraq (HCED) and the North West Lung Research Charity, Manchester, UK.This report is independent research supported by National Institute for Health Research South Manchester Respiratory and Allergy Clinical Research Facility at University Hospital of South Manchester NHS Foundation Trust.

This method is implemented by depositing continuous cold or hot-water melted via welding arc plasma heat. This paper presents the designing, constructing, and controlling of an additive manufacturing system using TIG plus wire based Shaped metal deposition (TW-SMD) method. The aim of the current study is to design and develop an integrated system which is able to reduce time consuming and boring task of deposition process. The developed additive system is capable of producing near net shaped components of sizes not exceed 400 mm in 3 directions directly from CAD drawing. The results showed that the developed system succeeded to produce near net geometries and error-free depositions for various features of SS308LSi components. Additionally, workshop tests have been conducted in order to verify the capability and reliability of the developed AM system. © 2017, The Korean Society of Mechanical Engineers and Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.Additive manufacturing; Shaped metal deposition; Tungsten inert gas welding; Wire and arc additive manufacturing3D printers; Cladding (coating); Computer aided design; Deposition; Inert gas welding; Inert gases; Metals; Plasma welding; Welding; Wire; Additive systems; Aerospace structural components; Deposition process; Integrated systems; Shaped metal depositions; Traditional manufacturing; Tungsten inert gas welding; Welding arc plasma; ManufactureBuckner, M.A., Lonnie, J.L., Automating and accelerating the additive manufacturing design process with multi-objective constrained evolutionary optimization and HPC/cloud computing (2012) Proc. of the IEEE International Conference on Future of Instrumentation International Workshop (FIIW), Gatlinburg, NT, USA, pp. 1-4; Strano, G., Hao, L., Evans, K.E., Everson, K.M., Optimization of quality and energy consumption for additive layer manufacturing processes (2010) Proc. of ICRM 2010-Green Manufacturing, Ningbo, China, pp. 364-369; (2006) Net-shape processing applied to aero-engine components, In Cost Effective Manufacturing via Net-Shape Processing Meeting Proceedings RTO-MPAVT-139, Paper 1, , http://www.rto.nato.int/abstracts.asp, W.

The temperature range studied covers the hot climate regions. 250 KVA distribution transformer is chosen as a study model. A novel cooling fluid is proposed to improve the cooling performance of this transformer, transformer oil-based microencapsulated phase change materials suspension is used with volume concentration (5–25)% as a cooling fluid instead of pure transformer oil. Paraffin wax is used as a phase change material to make the suspension, in addition to the ability of heat absorption due to melting, the paraffin wax considered as a good electrical insulator. Results obtained show that, using of MEPCM suspension instead of pure transformer oil lead to improve the cooling performance of transformer by reducing its temperature and as a consequence increasing its protection against the breakdown. The melting fraction increased with increasing outside temperature up to certain temperature after which the melting fraction reach maximum constant value (MF = 1) which indicate that, the choosing of PCM depend on the environment in which the transformer is used. © 2016 Karabuk UniversityCooling performance; Distribution transformer; Electrical transformer; MEPCM; Phase change material; Transformer oilPermissible loading of oil-immersed transformers and regulators (2000), Facilities Instructions, Standards, And Techniques, US Department OF The Interior Bureau Of Reclamation; Dejan, S., Dynamic Thermal Modeling of Power Transformers (2005), Ph.D. dissertation Helsinki University of technology; Meshkatoddini, M.R., Abbaspour, S., Aging study and lifetime estimation of transformer mineral oil (2008) Am.

Based on the first-principles of the density functional theory (DFT) calculations, we investigated the effect of various consternations of substitutional impurities from oxygen atoms on the electronic properties of GNFs. Our results show that the electronic properties of GNFs do not only depend on the oxygen impurity concentrations, but also depend on the geometrical pattern of oxygen impurities in the GNFs. Additionally, we also found interesting electronic properties of GNFs structure, which significantly contribute to that oxygen dopants cause a decreased energy gap. So, our results suggest that substitutional impurities are the best viable option for enhancement of desired electronic properties of GNFs. © 2016 Elsevier B.V.B3LYP; DFT; DOS; Energy gap; GNFsCalculations; Density functional theory; DOS; Electronic properties; Energy gap; Impurities; Oxygen; Substitution reactions; B3LYP; Electronic band; Electronic properties of graphene; First principles; Geometrical patterns; GNFs; Influence of oxygen; Substitutional impurities; GrapheneRani, P., Jindal, V.K., Designing band gap of graphene by B and N dopant atoms (2013) RSC Adv., 3, pp. 802-812; Sirikumara, H.I., Putz, E., Al-Abboodi, M., Jayasekera, T., Symmetry induced semimetal-semiconductor transition in doped graphene (2016) Sci.

Plant parts and corresponding water and sediment samples were taken at the inflow and outflow points of the four ponds at the beginning and at the end of the growing season. Concentrations of As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni and Zn in the different compartments were estimated and their removal efficiency assessed, reaching more than 90% for Fe, Mn and Ni in spring and fall as well in the water compartment. The above- and below-ground cattail biomass varied from 0.21 to 0.85, and 0.34 to 1.24 kg dry weight/m2, respectively, the highest values being recorded in the fourth pond in spring 2011. The root system was the first site of accumulation before the rhizome, stem and leaves. The highest metal concentration was observed in roots from cattails growing at the inflow of the system's first pond. The trend in the average trace element concentrations in the cattail plant organs can generally be expressed as: Fe > Mn > As > Zn > Cr > Cu > Ni > Cd for both spring and fall. While T. latifolia removes trace elements efficiently from landfill leachates, attention should also be paid to the negative effects of these elements on plant growth. © 2016Lagooning; Landfill leachate; Phytoremediation; Trace elements; Typha latifoliaBioremediation; Lakes; Land fill; Leachate treatment; Manganese; Manganese removal (water treatment); Metals; Nickel; Plants (botany); Soil pollution control; Water treatment; Zinc; Lagooning; Landfill leachates; Metal concentrations; Metals and metalloids; Phytoremediation; Removal efficiencies; Trace element concentrations; Typha latifolia; Trace elements; bioaccumulation; concentration (composition); growth rate; herb; landfill; leachate; metalloid; phytoremediation; pond; trace element; Typha; Typha latifolia; heavy metal; metalloid; water pollutant; analysis; bioremediation; chemistry; France; pond; Typhaceae; waste disposal facility; water pollutant; Biodegradation, Environmental; France; Metalloids; Metals, Heavy; Ponds; Typhaceae; Waste Disposal Facilities; Water Pollutants, ChemicalMetalloids; Metals, Heavy; Water Pollutants, ChemicalAhmad, A., Diwan, H., Abrol, Y.P., Global climate change, stress and plant productivity (2010) Abiotic Stress Adaptation in Plants: Physiological, Molecular and Genome Foundation, pp. 503-521. , P.

The present rate equations model consists of three equations for the electron density in the conduction band and one equation for photon density in cavity length. Two equations were derived to calculate the noise and modulation response. Calculations in this paper are focused on the effect of optical phonon emission rate τij, number of stages and the gain coefficient on the noise spectrum and modulation response in these types of semiconductor lasers. The results indicate the strong effect of optical phonon emission rate, gain coefficient and number of stages on the dynamics properties of QCLs. The static properties such as the population inversion, threshold injection current and steady state photon density deviate from the ideal values with increasing in τ21 .The effect of optical phonon emission rate τ21 has similar effect to that of the photon lifetime on the noise spectrum in comparison with other times.Intensity modulation; Intensity noise; Quantum cascade lasers; Quantum well lasers; Rate equation modelMurakami, A., Kawashima, K., Atsuki, K., Cavity resonance shift and bandwidth enhancement in semiconductor lasers with strong light injection (2003) J.

The number of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) that have already been approved for therapeutic applications and for use in clinical trials have significantly increased in the past few years. In view of the side effects and limitations of mAbs, several improvements and modifications to monoclonal antibodies have been developed. These modifications have facilitated the use of mAbs in various forms of therapeutic applications such as treatment of infectious diseases caused by bacterial, viral, fungal and parasitic organisms. Monoclonal antibodies have also been applied in the treatment of non-infectious diseases such as cancer, immune diseases, arthritis and other disorders resulting from organ transplantation. This review highlights mAbs applications in biomedicine, and discusses state-of-the-art technologies related to their potential uses. © Pharmacotherapy Group, Faculty of Pharmacy, University of Benin, Benin City, 300001 Nigeria.

The cubic cavity with moving isothermal sidewalls has uniform heat flux on the middle part of the bottom wall, and the other remaining walls forming the enclosure are adiabatic and stationary. The relevant parameters in the present research include Reynolds number Re (5000–30,000), nanoparticle diameter (25 nm–85 nm), and nanoparticle volume fraction (0.00–0.08). In general, remarkable effects on the heat transfer and fluid patterns are observed by using nanofluids in comparison to the conventional fluid. Different types of nanofluids or different diameters of nanoparticles can make pronounced changes in the heat convection ratio. In addition, increasing in either volume fraction of nanoparticles or Reynolds number leads to increasing in the Nusselt number, fluctuation kinetic energy and root mean square velocity of the fluid in the domain. It is also found that both URANS and LES methods have shown good performance in dealing with unsteady flow conducted in this project. However, the comparisons have elucidated clearly the advantages of the LES approach in predicting more detailed heat and flow structures. © 2017 Elsevier LtdLES; Lid-driven cavity; Mixed convection; Nanofluid; Turbulent flow; Unsteady simulation; URANSEnclosures; Heat flux; Heat transfer; Kinetic energy; Kinetics; Mixed convection; Nanofluidics; Nanoparticles; Reynolds number; Turbulent flow; Unsteady flow; Volume fraction; Lid-driven cavities; Nanofluids; Nanoparticle volume fractions; Root mean square velocity; Three-dimensional unsteady flow; Unsteady mixed convection; Unsteady simulations; URANS; Heat convectionGuo, G., Sharif, M.A., Mixed convection in rectangular cavities at various aspect ratios with moving isothermal sidewalls and constant flux heat source on the bottom wall (2004) Int.

This paper reports for the first time using the pulsed current shaped metal deposition technique for fabricating components using cold wire of AISI 308LSi stainless steel. The aim of this work was to investigate and compare the effect of pulse frequency and other deposition process parameters on the morphology aspects and microstructure characteristics of the manufactured components using pulsed and continuous current processes. The obtained results reveal that the structure of the deposited specimens produced via pulsed arc current is generally having finer grains, high residual ferrite, and absence of columnar grains. Pulse frequency and current ratio have a significant influence on the surface morphology and microstructure of the manufactured parts. Good metallurgical bonding with no sensitization effects can be seen in all tested specimens. The presented additive layered manufacturing method can be recommended for near net-shaped processing of austenitic stainless steel components, and it can be used as an alternative manufacturing method for fabricating metal components with free defects, higher corrosion resistance, and superior mechanical properties. © 2016, Springer-Verlag London.Additive manufacturing; Microstructure of austenitic stainless steel; Pulsed arc welding; Shaped metal deposition3D printers; Austenitic stainless steel; Corrosion resistance; Deposition; Electric arc welding; Electric welding; Gas metal arc welding; Gas welding; Layered manufacturing; Manufacture; Metals; Microstructure; Welding; Gas tungsten arc welding; Manufacturing methods; Manufacturing technologies; Metallurgical bonding; Microstructure characteristics; Microstructure characterization; Pulsed arc welding; Shaped metal depositions; Stainless steelhttp://www.RAPOLAC.eu, RAPOLAC Project home page.

Local Directional Number Pattern (LDNP) technique is proposed to extract the features of the face and categorized with one of the algorithms for classification. LDNP encrypts directional information of the facial texture in a compact way to eight different directions through calculating the edge responses in the neighborhood, by choice most positive and negative directions of those edge responses to produce a descriptor. Positive and negative directions provide sufficient information on the structure of the neighborhood. It allows distinguishing the intensity changes for example from light to dark and dark to light. The LDNP is a method more compact than previous methods in which they can extract many facial features that integrate with each other into a feature vector, which is then, used it as a face descriptor. This approach is extended in this work to improve recognition accuracy. In the existing method, Support Vector Machine (SVM) with LDNP approach which used for facial expression. The performance of SVM is destitute. In the proposed model Feed Forward Neural Network (FFNN), is used to improve the accuracy performance.Face detection; Features extraction; FFNN; LDNP; SVMImage retrieval; Support vector machines; Directional information; Facial expression recognition; Facial Expressions; Features extraction; FFNN; Intensity change; LDNP; Recognition accuracy; Face recognitionOjala, T., Pietikäinen, M., Harwood, D., A comparative study of texture measures with classification based on feature distributions (1996) Pattern Recognit, 29 (1), pp. 51-59. , Jan; Belhumeur, P.N., Hespanha, J.P., Man, D.J.K., Eigenfaces vs. Fisher faces Recognition using class specific linear projection (1997) IEEE Trans.

In this paper Epileptic seizure detection is done using electroencephalogram signals (EEG). Discrete wavelet transform (DWT) method is a common method to extract four features from the (EEG) signal, and then classify them. To improve and increase the efficiency of extraction of features and to get the best results of classification, we used new method for the extraction of features, namely Higher Order Statistics of Wavelet Packet Decomposition (HOS of WPD).

The analysis is then extended to include the maximal ratio combining and square law combining schemes with non-identically distributed branches. Moreover, the analysis over κ - μ extreme shadowed fading channel, that is utilised to model the wireless communications scenarios in enclosed areas, is also investigated. To this end, exact closed-form expressions of the average area under the receiver operating characteristics curve are derived. © The Institution of Engineering and Technology 2017.Signal detection; Wireless telecommunication systems; Closed-form expression; Diversity receiver; Energy detection; Maximal ratio combining (MRC); Receiver operating characteristics; Square law combining; Wireless communications; Fading channelsDigham, F.F., Alouni, M.S., Simon, M.K., On the energy detection of unknown signals over fading channels (2007) Trans.

Organic species present during growth make carbon as common contaminant, so various structural configurations of carbon in tetragonal PbTiO3 have been investigated. We have analyzed the electronic properties and vibrational modes using density functional calculations, from which we find that carbon contamination may be electrically active, such as substitution of Pb or O, or electrically passive, such as for iso-electronic substitution of Ti. The most stable site under most conditions is substitution of Ti, but due to the structural arrangement and chemical bonding it is a fixed electric dipole, with an activation energy for reorientation around 1.5 eV. This large barrier has implications for switching the direction of ferroelectric domains. © 2016 School of Mechanical and Systems Engineering.Activation energy; Calculations; Chemical bonds; Electronic properties; Impurities; Lead; Semiconducting lead compounds; Titanium; Titanium compounds; Ab initio calculations; Electrically actives; Electronic substitution; Ferroelectric domains; Ferroelectric property; High dielectric constants; Structural arrangement; Structural configurations; FerroelectricityYuan, Y., Xiao, Z., Yang, B., Huang, J., Arising applications of ferroelectric materials in photovoltaic devices (2014) J.

These solvents were evaluated as possible pretreatment routes for sago palm bark (SPB) with their effects on the pretreated substrate. A variety of analyses, consisting of fiber analysis, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), X-ray fluorescence spectrometer (XRF), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), were performed to understand the pretreatment effects on the chemical and physical characteristics of SPB and pretreatment liquor. The thermal analysis has revealed that higher hemicellulose degradation was also found in MSA pretreatment. In the analyses of the pretreatment liquid for the extracted monomeric sugar, a higher amount of glucose was found (9 mg/g) using MSH pretreatment and the highest xylose level was found (4 mg/g) using MSA pretreatment. The analysis of the formation of inhibitors has shown that acetic acid was only found in the MSH pretreatment. © 2017, Copyright © Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.inhibitors; microwave; monomeric sugar; Pretreatment;

Glass fiber reinforced polymers (GFRPs) are known as cost-effective materials offering long-term durability and less maintenance. As a result, these materials show great potential for use in the civil engineering applications. Due to the high cost of the manufacturing die, pultruded GFRP tubes are produced in specific cross-section dimensions only. For high load applications and to comply with the serviceability requirements, a number of these pultruded sections can be assembled together by gluing them appropriately. This study presents an experimental investigation onto the flexural behavior of glued GFRP tube beams with 1, 2, 3 and 4 - cells filled with concrete under four-point loading. The results show that the strength of the 4 cells glued beams increased by 150 % and 88% for hollow and filled beams, respectively, compared with its counterpart single cell beam. The filled beams failed at 42 – 88 % higher load and showed 10 – 22 % higher stiffness compared with their hollow counterparts. The results also show that gluing small section tubes to produce large section beam is a practical solution to enhance the flexural performance of the composite tubes. © 2017 APFIS.

The current study aimed to determine the diversity of bacterial infection in urinary bladder tumours and studying the immunoexpression of CD14 in bladder tissues associated with bacterial infection. Materials and Methods: In total, 65 patients with bladder tumours with urine and paraffin embedded tissue samples were enrolled in the study, among these patients, 50 had bladder carcinoma (BC) and 15 had benign tumours (BT). Specific culture media and biochemical tests were used to isolate and identify bacterial species and immunohistochemistry (IHC) was used to detect CD14 tissue expression in both groups. Chi-square test was used to compare the difference between percentages of this study by using SAS. Results: The results showed that 37 out of 50 BC patients were positive for gram-negative bacteria, 3 out of 50 patients were positive for gram-positive bacteria and 10 out of 50 patients were negative growth. All BT patients showed presence of gram-negative bacteria. IHC staining showed that CD14+ was significantly over expressed in BC patients compared with BT patients (82% vs. 46.7%, p≤0.01). CD14 expression was also high in gram-negative bacteria infected bladder tissues in patients with both BC and BT and its expression was significantly correlated with this type of bacterial infection (p<0.01). Conclusion: A significant association between CD14 expression and bacterial infected tissues was found and concluded that CD14 activation driven by microbial inflammation probably contributes to bladder cancer. © 2017 Hind Mizhir Mousa et al.Bacterial infection; Bladder tumor; CD14; Inflammation; Innate immunityCD14 antigen; antigen expression; Article; bacterial infection; benign neoplasm; bladder cancer; cancer grading; controlled study; disease association; Enterococcus faecalis; Escherichia coli; human; human tissue; immunohistochemistry; inflammation; innate immunity; Klebsiella pneumoniae; major clinical study; nonhuman; prevalence; protein expression; Proteus mirabilis; Pseudomonas aeruginosa; Staphylococcus aureus; urinalysis; urinary tract infectionDe Martel, C., Ferlay, J., Franceschi, S., Vignat, J., Bray, F., Forman, D., Plummer, M., Global burden of cancers attributable to infections in 2008: A review and synthetic analysis (2012) Lancet Oncol., 13, pp. 607-615; Lax, A.J., Thomas, W., How bacteria could cause cancer: One step at a time (2002) Trends Microbiol., 10, pp. 293-299; Karin, M., Greten, F.R., NF-kB: Linking inflammation and immunity to cancer development and progression (2005) Nat.

Using constant current for CP is the most popular approach in practice, particularly for the structures exposed to atmospheric conditions. However, for submerged structures, the situation of the reinforcement is quite different, if the constant current approach is efficient to provide adequate protection is still not very clear. To have a deep understanding for the question, an experimental investigation has been conducted for reinforced concrete specimens protected by impressed electrical current of both constant current density and constant potentiostatically controlled potential, respectively. Reinforced concrete specimens had varied chloride contents and submerged into salty solutions that have the same amount of chloride added in the concrete mixture have been examined. The performance of protection has been evaluated and discussed. Corrosion potentials and concrete resistivity were also measured and compared with those of chloride content/corrosion rate. © 2017 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.

Reinforced and non-reinforced concrete specimens of varied chloride contents and exposed to ventilated condition at 50±5% relative humidity and room temperature of 20±3°C were investigated. Five levels of cathodic current densities of 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 mA/m2 were applied during the cathodic polarization. A new correlation between the concrete resistivity and reinforcement corrosion rate was obtained and compared with previous work. The effect of concrete resistivity and polarization resistance on the reinforcement potential shift were also discussed. In the last, based on the findings of the research, some useful conclusions can be drawn. © 2017 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.

Considerably the sand cushion is one of the best techniques used frequently to treat the weak soil and enhance its mechanical properties such as bearing capacity and consequently reduce its settlement. In this research an experimental study has been carried out to study the load-settlement behaviour of two groups of footings.The first group consists of footing on natural soil (weak soil) and footing on the flat sand cushion, the second group consists of footing on a curvilinear sand cushion and the footing on the reinforced curvilinear sand cushion. Test results showed that, the use of a sand cushion, reduce the soil settlement and increase the load applied capacity. The measurements of settlement are taking place for the first and second groups at the average load of P = 75 kPa. It has been indicated that, the use of flat cushion is allowed to reduce the soil settlement up to 13%, the curvilinear sand cushion reduced the settlement up to 16% while the curvilinear sand cushion that has been reinforced with geotextile reduced the settlement by 34% compared with the natural soil base settlement under the same load. © Medwell Journals, 2017.Bearing capacity; Comists; Reinforcement; Sand cushion; Settlement curvilinear; Weak soil(2012) Standard test methods for laboratory compaction characteristics of soil using standard effort (12400 ft-lbf/ft3 (600 kN-m/m3)), , ASTM International, West Conshohocken, Pennsylvania; Abelev, Y.M., Krutov, B.I., (1962) Construction of Buildings and Structures on Loose Soils, , Moscow State Mining University, Moscow, Russia; Ahmed, H.F., (1990) Increase of the load-bearing capacity of clay soils by the method of reinforcement with basalt fiber, , MSc Thesis, Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, Kiev, Ukraine; Dalmatov, B.I., (2006) Design of Foundations of Buildings and Underground Structures: Textbook, , 3rd Edn., DIA Publishing House, Moscow, Russia; Das, B.M., (2009) Principles of Geotechnical Engineering, p. 504. , 7th Edn., Wadsworth Cengage Learning, Stamford, Connecticut; Francius, O., (1930) Bases and Foundations, , Aurora Leningrad Publisher, Saint Petersburg, Russia; Gudehus, G., Kolymbas, D., A constitutive law of the rate type for soils (1979) Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Numerical Methods in Geomechanics, pp. 319-329. , April 2-6, 1979, PIPO-Verlag Publisher, Aachen, Germany; Joseph, E.B., (1996) Foundation Analysis and Design, p. 1175. , 5th Edn., Mc-Graw Hill, New York, USA; Krutov, V.I., (2009) Foundations of Shallow Location, , Moscow State Mining University, Moscow, Russia; Litvinov, I.M., (1934) Strengthening of weak grounds, , MSc Thesis, Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, Kiev, Ukraine; Mangushev, R.A., (2012) Methods of Preparation and Design of Artificial Bases, , DIA Publishing House, Moscow, Russia; Ophrichter, V.G., (2013) Methods of Construction of Armoround Structures, , ASV Publisher, Moscow, Russia; Roscoe, K.H., Burland, J.B., On the Generalized Stress-Strain Behaviour of Wet Clay (1968) Engineering Plasticity, pp. 535-609. , Heyman, J. and F.A.

The experimental results showed that ε', ε" and tand increased with increasing temperature and is due to greater freedom of movement of the dipole molecular chains within polymer at high temperature. The value of ε' decreased with increasing frequency which indicates that the major contribution to the polarization comes from orientation polarization. Ac conductivity F ac and impedance (Z) of doping polymer behaviors as function of frequency and temperature have also been investigated. © Medwell Journals, 2017.Ac conductivity; Dipole molecular; Lignin resin; Lignosulfonate; Polarization; Rhodamine BAmir, E., Antoni, P., Campos, L.M., Damiron, D., Gupta, N., Electronic Supplementary Material (ESI) for organic and biomolecular Chemistry (2012) R.

In this paper, the electroosmotic flow in square microchannels has been numerically investigated by developing a model from the basic governing equations (continuity, momentum, energy, Laplace and Poisson-Boltzmann equations). These equations were numerically solved by CFD program for two fluids (water and PBS). The study considered the external applied electric field and zeta potential to interrogate their potential effects on electroosmotic flow. Thermal characteristics of electroosmotic flow have been also studied by calculating the temperature distribution through electroosmosis micropump region. The results confirm the considerable effect of applied electric field, concentration of electrolyte fluid and zeta potential on microflow velocity and flow rate. The PBS gave higher velocity and flow rate values compared with water, and there was only a slight increase in temperature due to Joule heating effect. © 2017 Praise Worthy Prize S.r.l. - All rights reserved.Electrokinetic flow; Microchannel; Micropump; Numerical investigationDebye, P., Hückel, E., ZurTheorie der Electrolyte (1923) Phys.

Therefore, this study introduces pultruded multi-celled GFRP beams filled with low strength concrete. The flexural behaviour of beams made up of 1, 2 and 3 pultruded GFRP square sections (125 mm × 125 mm × 6.5 mm) and filled with concrete having low compressive strength was investigated. The composite beams were subjected to four-point static bending test to determine the strength, stiffness and failure mechanisms. The results of the experimental investigations showed that the failure stress of 2 and 3 cells beams is 98% and 85% compared with single cell beam, respectively. However, the filling percentages are 50% and 33%, respectively. All the tested beams were failed due to compression failure of the GFRP profile. Furthermore, the effective stiffness of 2 and 3 cells is 95% and 96%, respectively compared with single cell section. © 2017 Taylor & Francis Group, London.Cells; Compressive strength; Concretes; Cytology; Mechanics; Stiffness; Compression failure; Effective stiffness; Experimental investigations; Failure mechanism; Low compressive strengths; Low strength concrete; Static bending tests; Structural performance; Buckling(2010), Standard test method for compressive properties of rigid plastics, ASTM International, Philadelphia, USA; (2006), Standard practice for determine sandwich beam flexural and shear stiffness.

Allowance of the energy gap of the polymer conjugated is an object of great interesting debit for the possible removal of a doping in the preparation of highly conductivity polymers. Thiadiazoles derivatives are structural foundation of the polymer materials. In this present work, the electronic properties of graphene nanoflakes (GNFs)-phenanthrene-1,3,4-thiadiazoles oligomers are studied and discussed. Where thiadiazoles is expanded from one to 9 unit's molecules at the structure. The energy gap, HOMO, LUMO distribution, total energy, Fermi level energy, work function, maximum wavelength absorption, vertical absorption energies, and oscillator strengths are calculated for each molecule. All calculations are carry out by usage density function theory (DFT) and depended time density function theory (TD-DFT) with the B3LYP/6-31G model in the Gaussian 09W software packages. Results show that increasing the number of monomeric units lead to great enhance in the electronic properties, which caused it decreased the band gap from 3.17 eV in the system with one unit of thiadiazole just to 1.35 eV in the system with 9 units of thiadiazole. This case is raised the value of maximum absorption wavelengths to >500 nm to give the better performance in optoelectronic and solar cell, as these structures have prime absorption bands within the solar spectrum. © 2017DFT;

At present, governments are implementing programs to demonstrate the advantages of utilizing information and communication technologies in government administration. Using technology could result in internal efficiency and effectiveness of government actions. Evaluating the performance of the information system can reveal weak and strong points, which could be used in improving the system. For many years, scholars have pushed for assessing user satisfaction as a construct for evaluating such systems. Measuring the performance of the e-Government, which is the core of strategies employed by most Arab countries, could lead to the realization and application of the expected benefits of the system. Nonetheless, despite the popular use of e-Government services and applications worldwide, the assessment of electronic services in Iraq has been neglected in practical and theoretical aspects. Moreover, the new portal in Iraq, which is called "citizen e-Government," has decreased the number of citizens conducting business via electronic transactions. The portal design is complex and not user friendly. To respond to this need, this study assesses "Citizen E-Government Portal," which is a new portal in the Communications Directorate in Thi-Qar, according to employee perspective. The study used five constructs, namely, attractiveness, controllability, helpfulness, efficiency, and learnability, in the evaluation. Our findings revealed several weak points in the proposed e-portal, such as slow speed and unavailability of information needed by users. Hence, introductory explanations are needed to improve the proposed portal to increase user rate.E-portal; Employee perspective; Thi-Qar; WAMMI componentsDecision making; Efficiency; Information services;

The monthly average discharges of Euphrates River for the period (1995-2015) were used in this research. Three layers feed-forward network with sigmoid hidden neurons and linear output neurons are used in this research, the ANN is trained with Levenberg-Marquradt back-propagation algorithm. The total number of observations data was equal to 248 samples; divided into three statistical groups (148 samples as a training group, 50 samples as a validation group, and 50 samples as a testing group). Two preceding discharge values (Qt-1, Qt-2) were used for predicting the discharge value (Qt). The clustering radius is an important parameter to determine the number of clusters and fuzzy if-then rules in ANFIS model. The best value of clustering radius (0.8) was associated with lowest value of checking root mean squared error (33.716).According to statistical evaluation criteria, ANFIS model was better than ARIMA model, and slightly better than ANN model. The superiority of the ANFIS technique to the ANN and ARIMA models due to the fuzzy clustering of the input space and for creating a rule-base to generate the output. ANFIS model can be used by the Iraqi Ministry of Water Resources to extract results close to reality and give an approximate estimate of the expected flow values in the Euphrates River, better than using other high-cost models such as conceptual models or physically based models. © Research India Publications.Adaptive neuro fuzzy inference systems (ANFIS); Artificial neural networks (ANN); Autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA); Data-driven; Euphrates river; Iraq; Thi QarKisi, O., Kerem Cigizoglu, H., Comparison of different ANN techniques in river flow prediction" (2007) Civil Engineering and Environmental Systems, 24 (3), pp. 211-231. , September; Lin, G.F., Chen, G.R., Wu, M.C., Chou, Y.C., Effective Forecasting of Hourly Typhoon Rainfall Using Support Vector Machines (2009) Water Resources Research, 45, p. 8440; Solomatine, D.P., A.

Solar ponds are a simple, low-priced and efficient way to collect and store incident solar radiation; they have enormous capacity and huge unrealised potential. The most effective and widely-used type is the salinity gradient solar pond (SGSP), which can provide long-term storage, large capacity, and sufficient year-round power for a wide range of domestic, industrial and commercial purposes. It is essential to understand the best forms of construction and maintenance, including how to overcome the most significant challenge, that of establishing the different layers of water with their varying levels of saline concentration, as well as how to maintain these levels for optimal performance. This study investigates how to predict variations in salt concentrations over the pond's lifetime, in order to maintain maximum performance. The paper derives analytical formulae to calculate how concentrations in the upper and lower convective zones (UCZ and LCZ) change over time. It also explores the different responses of ponds with vertical walls and inclined walls. The computed concentrations were compared with actual measurements from a small experimental pond, which had a surface area of 1 m2 and a total depth of 1 m, comprising UCZ, non-convective zone (NCZ) and LCZ with depths of 0.1, 0.5, and 0.4 m respectively. The results were also compared with the results of previous experiments from established ponds. An acceptable agreement was achieved. The results illustrated that the derived formulae can be used to estimate salt concentrations in the UCZ and LCZ. The outcomes also show that the inclination of the walls affects concentration levels in the UCZ, while its impact on the LCZ concentration is slight. The findings of this study could form the basis of future research, which could investigate other factors affecting salt concentration in the layers of a SGSP, such as wind speed, temperature and the timing of salt injections to the LCZ. © 2017 Elsevier LtdSalinity gradient solar ponds; Solar Energy; Solar pondsGreenhouse gases; Incident solar radiation; Lakes; Ponds; Saline water; Solar energy; Wind; Analytical estimations; Analytical formulas; Concentration levels; Lower convective zones; Optimal performance; Saline concentration; Salinity gradient solar ponds; Trapezoidal cross sections; Solar ponds; analytical method; concentration (composition); cross section; energy resource; estimation method; experimental study; greenhouse gas; renewable resource; salinity; solar power; solar radiation; surface area; temperature effect; wind velocityAbbassi Monjezi, A., Campbell, A.N., A comprehensive transient model for the prediction of the temperature distribution in a solar pond under Mediterranean conditions (2016) Sol.

The Long-Term Evolution (LTE) is a 4G mobile communications standard set by International Communication Union (ITU), specifically ITU Radio communication Sector (ITU-R). At the moment, video traffic and telecommunications grow under the expansion of LTE, which is considered as the actual motivating access technology of 4G network. Throughout the deployment of LTE, various transport protocols are advised and broadly experimented, for instance, TCP, SCTP, DCCP and UDP that may execute differently on 4G networks subject to the network scenarios and parameter settings. Even though the deployment of LTE is swiftly enhanced, there is a lack of performance evaluation of its protocols. Hence, a widespread scrutiny is required for the evaluation of the operation of numerous protocols for high-end applications such as multimedia. Adopting these applications with flexible quality of service constraints with improved usage of resources is a challenging task. In this paper, the output results of different transport protocols for multimedia streaming applications, e.g., video, through extensive simulations are analyzed. The performance of an MPEG-4 video streaming is evaluated using NS-3. The performance metrics used are delay, jitter, throughput, and packet loss. These metrics are evaluated at the base station via TCP, SCTP, DCCP and UDP protocols over the 4G-LTE technology. The obtained results show that the DCCP performs the best in throughput improvement with the minimization of delay and jitter as compared to UDP, TCP, and SCTP.4G; DCCP; LTE; MPEG4; NS-3; SCTP; TCP; UDP4G mobile communication systems; Jitter; Long Term Evolution (LTE); Mobile telecommunication systems; Motion Picture Experts Group standards; Quality of service; Queueing networks; Radio communication; Transmission control protocol; Video streaming; Wireless telecommunication systems; 4G mobile communication; DCCP; Geographical locations; International communication; MPEG4; Multimedia streaming applications; Quality of Service constraints; SCTP; Internet protocolsMuttagi, S., Biradar, S., Kushnure, D., 50 : A Digital Society (2015) Electrical, Electronics, Signals, Communication and Optimization (EESCO), 2015 International Conference on, IEEE, pp. 1-5; Alberto, P., Yacoub, M.D., Figueiredo, F.L., Tronco, T.R., (2016) Long Term Evolution: 4G and beyond; Kumaravel, K., Comparative Study of 1G, 2G, 3G and 4G in Mobile Technology (2011) Int J Res, 8 (5), pp. 256-263; Singh, S., Oyman, O., Papathanassiou, A., Chatterjee, D., Andrews, J.G., Video capacity and QoE enhancements over LTE (2012) IEEE International Conference on Communications, pp. 7071-7076; Shukla, S., Khare, V., Garg, S., Sharma, P., Comparative Study of 1G, 2G, 3G and 4G (2013) J Eng Comput Appl Sci, 2 (4), pp. 55-63. , http://www.borjournals.com/Research-papers/Ap-2013/1248IT.pdf.

In this paper, an effective medical recommendation system that uses a fast Fourier transformation-coupled machine learning ensemble model is proposed for short-term disease risk prediction to provide chronic heart disease patients with appropriate recommendations about the need to take a medical test or not on the coming day based on analysing their medical data. The input sequence of sliding windows based on the patient's time series data are decomposed by using the fast Fourier transformation in order to extract the frequency information. A bagging-based ensemble model is utilized to predict the patient's condition one day in advance for producing the final recommendation. A combination of three classifiers-artificial neural network, least squares-support vector machine, and naive bayes-are used to construct an ensemble framework. A real-life time series telehealth data collected from chronic heart disease patients are utilized for experimental evaluation. The experimental results show that the proposed system yields a very good recommendation accuracy and offers an effective way to reduce the risk of incorrect recommendations as well as reduce the workload for heart disease patients in conducting body tests every day. The results conclusively ascertain that the proposed system is a promising tool for analyzing time series medical data and providing accurate and reliable recommendations to patients suffering from chronic heart diseases. © 2013 IEEE.intelligent systems; Recommender systems; time series analysisArtificial intelligence; Cardiology; Couplings; Decision making; Fourier series; Heart; Intelligent systems; Learning systems; Medical computing; Metadata; Neural networks; Recommender systems; Time series analysis; Clinical decision making; Experimental evaluation; Fast Fourier transformations; Frequency information; Intelligent technology; Least squares support vector machines; Recommendation accuracy; Time-series medical data; Diseaseskx201615; National Natural Science Foundation of China, NSFC: 61370050, 61572036, 61672039This work was supported in part by the National Science Foundation of China through the research projects under Grant 61572036, Grant 61370050, and Grant 61672039 and in part by the Guangxi Key Laboratory of Trusted Software under Grant kx201615.Kuh, D., Shlomo, Y.B., (2004) A Life Course Approach to Chronic Disease epidemiology, , Oxford, U.

Distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks are the second most prevalent cybercrime attacks after information theft. DDoS TCP flood attacks can exhaust the cloud's resources, consume most of its bandwidth, and damage an entire cloud project within a short period of time. The timely detection and prevention of such attacks in cloud projects are therefore vital, especially for eHealth clouds. In this paper, we present a new classifier system for detecting and preventing DDoS TCP flood attacks (CSDDoS) in public clouds. The proposed CSDDoS system offers a solution to securing stored records by classifying the incoming packets and making a decision based on the classification results. During the detection phase, the CSDDOS identifies and determines whether a packet is normal or originates from an attacker. During the prevention phase, packets, which are classified as malicious, will be denied to access the cloud service and the source IP will be blacklisted. The performance of the CSDDoS system is compared using the different classifiers of the least squares support vector machine (LS-SVM), naïve Bayes, K-nearest, and multilayer perceptron. The results show that CSDDoS yields the best performance when the LS-SVM classifier is adopted. It can detect DDoS TCP flood attacks with about 97% accuracy and with a Kappa coefficient of 0.89 when under attack from a single source, and 94% accuracy with a Kappa coefficient of 0.9 when under attack from multiple attackers. Finally, the results are discussed in terms of accuracy and time complexity, and validated using a K-fold cross-validation model. © 2013 IEEE.Classification; cloud computing; DDos attacks; LS-SVMClassification (of information); Cloud computing; Distributed computer systems; Floods; Network security; Support vector machines; Transmission control protocol; Classification results; Classifier systems; Cloud environments; DDoS Attack; Distributed denial of service attack; K fold cross validations; Least squares support vector machines; LS-SVM; Denial-of-service attackGirma, A., Abayomi, K., Garuba, M., The design, data flow architecture, and methodologies for a newly researched comprehensive hybrid model for the detection of DDoS attacks on cloud computing environment (2016) Proc.

If these ponds are to be implemented successfully, then a more complete understanding of the mechanisms and phenomena governing their behaviour is required. Evaporation has been shown previously to be the dominant mode of heat loss from the pond surface, and the fresh water that would need to be added to maintain the pond's inventory could potentially add significantly to operating costs. To this end, an experimental unit was constructed to examine and observe the behaviour of a salinity gradient solar pond (SGSP) before and after covering the pond with a thin layer (0.5 cm) of paraffin, with the aim of eliminating evaporation. The unit was run for 71 days in Nasiriyah, Iraq. This is the first study to attempt to completely eliminate the harmful effects of evaporation on solar pond performance using a liquid layer. The layer successfully eliminated the significant evaporation observed from the uncovered pond and crucially, while the salinity gradient through the non-convective zone remained substantially intact over the course of the study, the temperature profile became approximately uniform throughout the entire pond after about 50 days. This behaviour has significant implications for the construction of the pond, as it may mean that if evaporation can be largely suppressed, the salinity gradient may not be necessary for the pond to capture and efficiently store heat. Furthermore, the effects on evaporation of different climatic factors such as relative humidity, wind speed, ambient temperature and solar radiation were considered by analysing data measured on-site and longer-term meteorological data. The results showed that ambient temperature, solar radiation and humidity have a significant correlation with the evaporation rate; and their impact varies seasonally. A more comprehensive multiple regression analysis showed that ambient temperature has the highest impact on evaporation, while the effect of the incident solar radiation is insignificant. Such insights are vital in the design and siting of solar ponds, and can be used to minimise evaporative losses. © 2017Evaporation; Solar energy; Solar pondEvaporation; Lakes; Meteorology; Operating costs; Photovoltaic cells; Radiation effects; Regression analysis; Solar energy; Solar ponds; Solar power generation; Solar radiation; Temperature; Wind; Concentration profiles; Experimental analysis; Meteorological data; Multiple regression analysis; Photovoltaic systems; Salinity gradient solar ponds; Salinity gradients; Temperature profiles; Incident solar radiation; efficiency measurement; evaporation; experimental study; multiple regression; performance assessment; photovoltaic system; regression analysis; solar power; solar radiation; temperature profile; IraqAbbassi Monjezi, A., Campbell, A.N., A comprehensive transient model for the prediction of the temperature distribution in a solar pond under Mediterranean conditions (2016) Sol.

Evolutionary game theory is used to capture the long-term continuous behavior of the APTs on the cloud storage devices. Two APT defense games with discrete strategies are formulated, in which both an APT attacker and a defender compete to control one or multiple storage devices regarding their attack or defense intervals. The dynamical stability of each defense and attack strategy pair is studied according to the replicator dynamics criteria to characterize the locally asymptotically stable equilibrium strategies. The evolutionary stable strategy is discussed in each game, which is a subset of the asymptotically stable Nash equilibrium (NE). The phase portraits provide the locally asymptotically stable points of the APT defense game, which represent the NE showing the relationship between the asymptotic stability and evolutionary stability. © 2017 IEEE.advanced persistent threats; cloud storage; Evolutionary game theory; replicator dynamicsAsymptotic stability; Digital storage; Network security; Stability; Stability criteria; Virtual storage; advanced persistent threats; Asymptotically stable equilibrium; Cloud storages; Evolutionary game theory; Evolutionary stability; Evolutionary stable strategies; Multiple storage devices; Replicator dynamics; Game theoryNational Science Foundation: ACI-1541069; Higher Education Press; Arthritis Research Initiative: 2016-010; National Natural Science Foundation of China: 61671396This work was supported by the National Science Foundation under Grant ACI-1541069.

Two SGC components are included for this system: V, and Λ subsystems. It is shown that at high V-component, the system have a giga gain. At low Λ-system component; it is possible to controls the light speed between superluminal and subluminal using one parameter by increasing SGC component of the V-system. This have applications in quantum information storage and spatially-varying temporal clock. © 2017 The AuthorsLinear susceptibility; Quantum dot; Spontaneously generated coherenceJoshi, A., Yang, W., Xiao, M., Effect of spontaneously generated coherence on the dynamics of multi-level atomic systems (2004) Phys Lett A, 325, pp. 30-36; Akram, H., Al-Khursan, A.H., Second-order nonlinearity in ladder plus-Y configuration in double quantum dot structure (2016) Appl Opt, 55, pp. 9866-9874; Rehman, E., Al-Khursan, A.H., All-optical processes in double quantum dot structure (2016) Appl Opt, 55, pp. 7337-7344; Al-Khursan, A.H., Al-Khakani, M.K., Al-Mossawi, K.H., Third-Order Non-Linear Susceptibility in a Three-Level QD System (2009) Photon Nanostruct Fundament Appl, 7, pp. 153-160; Li, J., Liu, C., Cui, N., Li, H., Fan, X., Lasing with and without inversion due to spontaneously generated coherence in an open V-type system (2004) Chinese Opt Lett, 2, pp. 725-727; Fana, X., Yang, A.Y., Tong, D., Effect of spontaneously generated coherence on probe response in an open system (2010) Optik, 121, pp. 33-38; Li, J.-H., Chen, A.-X., Liu, J.-B., Yang, X., Control of spontaneous emission spectra and simulation of multiple spontaneously generated coherence in a four-level atomic system (2007) Opt Commun, 278, pp. 124-131; Fei, W., Wen-Xing, S., Cheng, G., Effects of spontaneously generated coherence on intensity-intensity correlation in a driven Y-Type atom (2011) Commun Theoret Phys, 56, pp. 1079-1083; Du, Y., Jin, K., Zhang, J., The Kerr nonlinearity in an N-Type Four-level system via spontaneously generated coherence (2009) J Atom Mol Opt Phys, , Article ID 382764, 4 pages; Sahrai, M., Noshad, H., Mahmoud, M., Entanglement of an atom and its spontaneous emission fields via spontaneously generated coherence (2011) J Sci, 22, pp. 171-176; Mahmoudi, M., Sahrai, M., Absorption-free superluminal light propagation in a quantum-dot molecule (2009) Physica E, 41, pp. 1772-1778; Villas-Boas, J.M., Govorov, A.O., Ulloa, S.E., Coherent control of tunnelling in a quantum dot molecule (2004) Phys Rev B, 6, p. 125342; Al-Khursan, A.H., Ghalib, B.A., Al-Obaidi, S.J., A numerical simulation of optical feedback on a quantum dot lasers (2012) Semiconductors, 46, pp. 213-220; Rossetti, M., Bardella, P., Montrosset, I., Modeling passive mode-locking in quantum dot lasers: a comparison between a finitedifference traveling-wave model and a delayed differential equation approach (2011) IEEE J Quantum Electron, 47, pp. 569-576; Al-Nashy, B., Amin, S.M.M., Al-Khursan, A.H., Kerr effect in Y-configuration double quantum dot System (2014) J Opt Soc Am B, 31, pp. 1991-1996; Al-Nashy, B., Ameen, S.M.M., Al-Khursan, A.H., Kerr dispersion in Y-configuration quantum dot system (2014) J Opt, 16, p. 105205; Ben Ezra, Y., Lembrikov, B.I., Haridim, M., Specific Features of XGM in QD-SOA (2007) IEEE J Quantum Electron, 43, pp. 730-737; Kim, J., Laemmlin, M., Meuer, C., Bimberg, D., Eisenstein, G., Static gain saturation model of quantum-dot semiconductor optical amplifiers (2008) IEEE J Quantum Electron, 44, pp. 658-666; Berg, T.W., Mørk, J., Saturation and noise properties of quantum-dot optical amplifiers (2004) IEEE J Quantum Electron, 40, pp. 152-159; Brunhes, T., Boucaud, P., Sauvage, S., Lemaıtre, A., Gerard, J.-M., Glotin, F., Prazeres, R., Ortega, J.-M., Infrared second-order optical susceptibility in InAs/GaAs self-assembled quantum dots (2000) Phys Rev B, 61, p. 5562; Al-Nashy, B., Ameen, S.M.M., Al-Khursan, A.H., Kerr nonlinearity enhancement by double tunneling from quantum dot nanostructure (2016) Res Phys, 6, pp. 189-193; Jiang, W., Yan, X., Song, J., Zheng, H., Wu, C., Yin, B., Zhang, Y., Enhancement of Kerr nonlinearity via spontaneously generated coherence in a four-level N-type atomic system (2009) Opt Commun, 282, pp. 101-105; Chuang, S.L., Physics of optoelectronic devices (1995), Wiley New York; Bimberg, D., Grundman, M., Ledentsov, N.N., Quantum dot heterostructures (1999), Wiley NewYork; Dwara, S.N., Al-Khursan, A.H., Quantum efficiency of InSbBi quantum dot photodetector (2015) Appl Opt, 54, pp. 9722-9727; Dwara, S.N., Al-Khursan, A.H., Two-window InSbBi quantum dot photodetector (2016) Appl Opt, 55, pp. 5591-5595; Milonni, P.W., Fast Light Slow Light and Left-Handed Light (2005), Institute of Physics Publishing Bristol; Glasser, R.T., Vogl, U., Lett, P.D., Demonstration of images with negative group velocities (2012) Opt Express, 20, pp. 13702-13710Al-Khursan, A.H.; Nassiriya Nanotechnology Research Laboratory (NNRL), Iraq; email: ameen_2all@yahoo.comElsevier B.V.22113797EnglishResults Phys.ArticleFinalAll Open Access, GoldScopus2-s2.0-85024844844

Changing metal atom has little effect on the thermal conductance due to the phonons. The room-temperature Seebeck coefficients of these junctions are rather high, ranging from 90 μV K-1 for Cu, Ni and Zn-porphyrins to -16 μV K-1 for Co-porphyrin. These values could be further increased by lowering molecular energy levels relative to the DFT-predicted Fermi energy. In contrast, the phonon contribution to the thermal conductance of these junctions is rather insensitive to the choice of metal atom. The thermopower, thermal conductance and electrical conductance combined to yield the room-temperature values for the thermoelectric figure of merit ZT ranging from 1.6 for Cu porphyrin to ∼0.02 for Ni-porphyrin. © 2017 the Owner Societies.606728; Ministère de l’Enseignement Supérieur et de la Recherche Scientifique, MESRS; Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council, EPSRC: EP N017188/1, EP/M014452/1This work is supported by UK EPSRC grants EP N017188/1, EP/M014452/1, the European Union Marie-Curie Network MOLESCO 606728 and the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, Thi-Qar University, IRAQ.Malen, J.A., (2009) Nano Lett., 9, p. 1164; Guo, S.Y., Zhou, G., Tao, N.J., (2013) Nano Lett., 13, p. 4326; Tan, A., Sadat, S., Reddy, P., (2010) Appl.

Although major advances have been recorded in the diagnosis of infectious diseases in humans, parasitic diseases continue to present challenges, particularly in resource-poor countries, and this is mainly attributable to war and famine. Factors such as poverty, deteriorated health facilities and destruction of infrastructure are the consequence of the lack of suitable sanitary practices and proper hygiene, especially in refugee camps, that adversely promote infectious diseases to migrants, particularly among vulnerable children. Generally, the gastrointestinal tract is the predilection site for most helminths and protozoa. They are therefore regarded as a serious public-health problem, as they cause malabsorption, malnutrition and blood loss, leading to anaemia or even death. In addition to their health effects, parasitic infections cause physical and mental impairment in children, retard their educational achievements and hinder economic development. © Pharmacotherapy Group, Faculty of Pharmacy, University of Benin, Benin City, 300001 Nigeria.

Users of BIM tools point to the ability to visualize the final design along with the construction process as a beneficial feature of using BIM. Knowing the construction process in relationship to a facility’s design benefits both safety professionals when planning worker safety measures for a project and designers when creating a project’s design. Success in using BIM to enhance safety partly depends on the familiarity of project personnel with BIM tools and the extent to which the tools can be used to identify and eliminate safety hazards. In a separate, ongoing study, the authors investigated the connection between BIM and safety to document the opportunities, barriers, and impacts. Utilizing an on-line survey of project engineers who work for construction firms together with a comprehensive literature review, the study found those who use BIM feel that it aids in communication of project information and project delivery, both of which have been found to have positive impacts on construction site safety. Further, utilizing the survey results, the authors apply the binary logistic regression econometric framework to better understand the factors that lead to safety professionals believing that BIM increases safety in the work place. In addition, according to the survey results, a large percentage of the engineers who use BIM feel that ultimately it helps to eliminate safety hazards and improve worker safety. The study findings suggest that improvements in safety performance across the construction industry may be due in part to increased use of BIM in the construction industry. © 2017 by the authors;Building information modelling; Construction; Econometric modelling; Worker safetyHigher Committee for Education Development in Iraq, HCEDAcknowledgments: This research was partially supported by the Higher Committee for Education in Iraq (HCED).This research was partially supported by the Higher Committee for Education in Iraq (HCED).Clevenger, C., Puerto, L., Glick, S., Developing a BIM-enabled bilingual safety training module for the construction industry (2014) Proceedings of the Construction Research Congress 2014: Construction in A Global Network, , Atlanta, GA, USA, 19–21 May; (2015) Occupational Injuries/Illnesses and Fatal Injuries Profiles, Construction: (Code GP1CON), , https://data.bls.gov/gqt/InitialPage, Available online: accessed on 20 January 2017; Eastman, C.M., (1999) Building Product Models: Computer Environments, Supporting Design and Construction, 1st Ed., , CRC Press, Tylor & Francis Group: Boca Raton, FL, USA; Azhar, S., Building information modelling (BIM): Trends, benefits, risks, and challenges for the AEC industry (2011) J.

In this paper the MHD flow in different cross section microchannels has been numerically investigated with different electromagnetic boundary conditions. Square, rectangular, circular and trapezoidal cross section microchannels have been used to explore the effect of channel geometry on the MHD micropump operation. The study covers a selected range of applied electric currents and magnetic flux to show their effects on MHD flow. Thermal characteristics of MHD flow have been also studied by calculation the temperature distribution through MHD micropump region. The results obtained show a considerable effect of channel geometry, the applied electric and magnetic fields on the velocity and flow rate. The circular cross section micropump gave higher velocity and flow rate compared with other cross sections, and there is a slight increase in temperature due to small effect of Joule heating. © 2017 Karabuk UniversityElectromagnetic; MHD flow; Microchannel; Micropump; Numerical investigationLuciano, P.A., Harry, E.S., Michael, G.M., An MHD Study of the Behavior of an Electrolyte Solution Using 3D Numerical Simulation and Experimental Results (2013), University of São Paulo, Comsol Conference in Boston; Masoud, A., Arash, K., Afshin, A.N., Mohammad, A., (2016), pp. 474-481. , The variations of heat transfer and slip velocity of FMWNT-water nano-fluid along the micro-channel in the lack and presence of a magnetic field Physica, E84; Debamoy, S., Isaac, K.M., Nick, L., Ingrid, F., Simulation of electrochemical MHD induced flow in a microfluidic cell without channels (2011) J.

This can be achieved through in vivo maintenance of Strongyloides stercoralis in Meriones unguiculatus, but isolating a large quantity of Strongyloides stercoralis to establish the colony from an infected patient is too difficult to achieve. Hence, Strongyloides ratti have been used as a model in human strongyloidiasis research. This study describes a successful establishment and maintenance of Strongyloides ratti infection in experimentally immunosuppressed Wistar rats. Large quantities of filariform (iL3) larvae of Strongyloides ratti for research related to human strongyloidiasis have been harvested following this protocol. Molecular detection method based on PCR using species specific primers was used to confirm the species of the harvested infective larvae (iL3). Additionally, the identification of histopathological lesions confirmed the presence of infective larvae (iL3) in the liver and lungs as a result of an increased parasite burden due to hyperinfection and disseminated disease. This pathological presentation was found to be similar to that reported in Strongyloides stercoralis-infected immunocompromised human subjects. © 2017, Malaysian Society for Parasitology.

The cavity has a hot stationary bottom wall and a cold top lid-driven wall, and all the other walls completing the domain are motionless and adiabatic. The simulations are performed for different Reynolds numbers, Re = 5000, 10,000, 15,000 and 30,000, and for dimensionless rotational speeds of the cylinder, 0 ≤ Ω ≤ 10. The performance of two turbulence methods, Large Eddy Simulation (LES) and Unsteady Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (URANS), has been evaluated in this research. The flow and thermal fields are studied through flow vectors, isotherm contours and iso-surfaces temperature, as well as through the average Nusselt number (Nuav) and velocity components. The results demonstrate clearly that the flow patterns and the thermal fields are influenced strongly by increasing either the rotating cylinder speed or the Reynolds number. Furthermore, both LES and URANS solutions can capture the essential feature of the primary eddies in the cavity. But this study has shown convincing evidence that only the LES method can predict the structure details of the secondary eddies that have profound effects on the heat transfer behaviour within the enclosure. © 2017 Elsevier LtdLES; Lid-driven cavity; Mixed convection; Rotating cylinder; Turbulent flow; URANSCircular cylinders; Cylinders (shapes); Domain walls; Heat convection; Large eddy simulation; Mixed convection; Navier Stokes equations; Reynolds number; Turbulent flow; Essential features; Lid-driven cavities; Rotating circular cylinders; Rotating cylinders; Secondary eddies; Unsteady reynolds-averaged navier-stokes; URANS; Velocity components; Heat transferSagaut, P., (2006), Large eddy simulation for incompressible flows: an introduction.

In this paper, a novel fast Fourier transform-coupled machine learning based ensemble model is adopted for advising patients concerning whether they need to take the body test today or not based on the analysis of their medical data during the past a few days. The weighted-vote based ensemble attempts to predict the patients condition one day in advance by analyzing medical measurements of patient for the past k days. A combination of three algorithms namely neural networks, support vector machine and Naive Bayes are utilized to make an ensemble framework. A time series telehealth data recorded from patients is used for experimentations, evaluation and validation. The Tunstall dataset were collected from May to October 2012, from industry collaborator Tunstall. The experimental evaluation shows that the proposed model yields satisfactory recommendation accuracy, offers a promising way for reducing the risk of incorrect recommendations and also saving the workload for patients to conduct body tests every day. The proposed method is, therefore, a promising tool for analysis of time series data and providing appropriate recommendations to patients suffering chronic diseases with improved prediction accuracy. © 2017, Springer International Publishing AG.Ensemble model; Fast Fourier transformation; Heart failure; Recommender system; Telehealth; Time series predictionArtificial intelligence; Decision making; Fast Fourier transforms; Forecasting; Fourier series; Learning systems; Medical computing; Recommender systems; Time series; Time series analysis; Ensemble modeling; Fast Fourier transformations; Heart failure; Telehealth; Time series prediction; Data miningkx201615; National Natural Science Foundation of China, NSFC: 61370050, 61572036, 61672039The authors would like to thank the support from National Science Foundation of China through the research projects (Nos. 61572036, 61370050, and 61672039) and Guangxi Key Laboratory of Trusted Software (No. kx201615).Kuh, D., Shlomo, Y.B., (2004) A Life Course Approach to Chronic Disease Epidemiology, , Inem Oxford University Press, London; Atlas, I.D., (2013) International Diabetes Federation Diabetes Atlas, , 6th edn.

The impact of wetting layer (WL) carrier density, CH time constant, effective intraband relaxation time have been examined. The derived heat capacity for QD structure have (T-1) dependence. It is shown here that both WL carrier density and QD excited state (ES) occupation controls the overall nonlinear contributions. Then inclusion of WL and ES in the CH induces a new equilibrium reached at a faster recovery time. The proposed model yields results in a line with experiments at high carrier density reflecting the efficiency of our model. © 2017 The AuthorsCarrier heating; Excited state; Four-wave mixing; Quantum dotYang, X., Lenstra, D., Khoe, G.D., Dorren, H.J.S., Nonlinear polarization rotation induced by ultrashort optical pulses in a semiconductor optical amplifier (2003) Opt Commun, 223, pp. 169-179;

Nineteen Uvitellina iraquensis Dronen, Ali &Al-Amura, 2013 from site #1 and 17 specimens from site #2 were fixed with minimal compression for comparisons of morphological characteristics, measurements, morphometric percentages and morphometric ratios commonly used to distinguish species of cyclocoelids. An additional five adult specimens from site #1 were fixed without compression for comparisons. Specimens from site # 1 (n=24) represented only fully-developed, non-senescing adults, while those from site #2 (n=17) could be divided into fully-developed (non-senescing) adults (n=8); younger (smaller, less developed) adults (n=5) and senescing adults (n=4). The following characteristics were relatively consistent, and appeared to be valuable in identifying groups of similar species and distinguishing species in Uvitellina: the presence or absence of the oral sucker; the oral sucker/pharynx width ratio; the posterior extent of the cirrus sac relative to the intestinal bifurcation; the position of the genital pore relative to the pharynx; the position of the testes in the body; the length of the intertesticular space; the length of the posttesticular space; the lateral disposition of the uterine loops; the presence of a posteriorly-directed, tail-like extension off the posterior confluence of the vitelline fields; the posterior extent of the uterine loops relative to the gonads; and the size of fully-developed eggs. It may be beneficial to calculate the percentage that measurements represent relative to the body length to provide insight into the relationship of the size of a structure to increased size of the specimens (growth). Specimens fixed without compression appeared to be less uniform, less symmetrical, shorter, more distorted and the internal details were more difficult to see. © 2017 Magnolia Press.Al-Hammar Marshes; Basrah Province; Charadriidae; Charadriiformes; Cyclocoelidae; Egg development and hatching; Fluke developmental categories; Haematotrephinae; Huwazah Marsh; Intraspecific variability; Iraq; Thi-Qar Province; Uvitellina iraquensis; Vanellus leucurus; White-tailed lapwing; White-tailed ploveranimal; bird; Charadriiformes; Iraq; trematode; trematodiasis; Animals; Birds; Charadriiformes; Iraq; Trematoda; Trematode InfectionsAbed, J.M., Status of water birds in restored southern Iraqi marshes (2007) Marsh Bulletin, 2, pp. 64-79; Allouse, B.A., (1961) Birds of Iraq, 2, p. 279. , Al-Rabita Press, Baghdad [in Arabic]; Alwash, A., Alwash, S., Eden again: Restoring Iraq's mesopotamian marshes (2004) National Wetlands Newsletter, 26, pp. 1-15; (2016), http://wwwbirdlife.org, BirdLife International (accessed 10 October 2016); Canavan, P.N., On a trematode allopyge undulatus n.

The mixture gamma distribution is employed to approximate with high accuracy the signal-to-noise ratio for all these channels. General, mathematically tractable, and unified analytic expressions for the performance metrics of ED, i.e., the average detection probability and the average area under the receiver operating characteristics curve, are derived. The validation of our analysis is verified by comparing the analytical results to the simulation results. © 2002-2011 IEEE.Energy detection; gamma distribution; mixture gamma distribution; α -μ; η -μ; κ -μFading channels; Mixtures; Probability distributions; Signal detection; Analytic expressions; Analytical results; Detection probabilities; Energy detection; Gamma distribution; Mixture Gamma distributions; Performance metrics; Receiver operating characteristics; Signal to noise ratioDigham, F.F., Alouini, M.S., Simon, M.K., On the energy detection of unknown signals over fading channels (2007) IEEE Trans.

This study focused on examining electronic transport through normal metal mesoscopic rings that have one dimension, and suggested how such rings can be employed to design nanoscale AND gate. A double mesoscopic ring was utilized for AND gate operation, every ring was threaded by magnetic flux, and the magnetic flux was considered as the key tuning parameter in the AND gate action. For a particular value of magnetic flux equal to the half of elementary flux-quantum, a logical AND gate operation was used depending on the applied gate voltages. Two gate voltages were externally applied to the lower arm of every ring, which acted as the two inputs of the AND gate. Few relevant patents to the designing and fabrication of quantum logical gates have been reviewed and cited. Methods: All the calculations are based on the time-dependent Hamiltonian model, the steady state is used to obtain the transmission probability. Results: The transmission probability, the current and the noise power of current fluctuations were calculated in the weak-coupling and strong-coupling regimes. Conclusion: This study paved the way for the production of an electronic logic gate. © 2017 Bentham Science Publishers.AND gate; Double mesoscopic ring; I-V characteristic; Magnetic flux; Quantum interference effect; Shot noise; Transmission probabilityMagnetic flux; Magnetism; Probability; Quantum interference devices; Quantum interference phenomena; Shot noise; Threshold voltage; AND gate; IV characteristics; Mesoscopic ring; Quantum interference effects; Transmission probabilities; Superconducting materials; article; calculation; logic; magnetic field; noise; patent; probability; steady stateMinistry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, MHESRThe authors thank the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research of Iraq for its support of scientific researches through the Iraqi Virtual Science Library (IVSL).Maiti, S.K., Dey, M., Sil, S., Chakrabarti, A., Karmakar, S.N., Magnetotransport in a mesoscopic ring with Rashba and Dresselhaus spinorbit interactions (2011) EPL, 95 (5), p. 57008; Sil, S., Maiti, S.K., Chakrabarti, A., Interplay of magnetic field and geometry in magneto-transport of mesoscopic loops with Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit interactions (2012) J Appl Phys, 112 (2), p. 024321; Kotb, A., Modeling of high-quality factor XNOR gate using quantum-dot semiconductor optical amplifiers at 1 Tb/s (2015) Braz J Phys, 45 (3), pp. 288-295; Dey, M., Maiti, S.K., Karmakar, S.N., Logical XOR gate response in a quantum interferometer: A spin dependent transport (2011) Eur Phys J B, 80 (1), pp. 105-114; Maiti, S.K., NOR gate response in a double quantum ring: An exact result (2009) Solid State Commun, 149 (47), pp. 2146-2150; Maiti, S.K., NAND gate response in a mesoscopic ring: An exact result (2009) Physica Scripta, 80 (5), p. 055704; Chang, C-H., Lee, Y-L., Chemical bath deposition of CdS quantum dots onto mesoscopic TiO2 films for application in quantum-dotsensitized solar cells (2007) Appl Phys Lett, 91 (5), p. 53503; Rn, A., Kouwenhoven, L.P., Double quantum dots as detectors of high-frequency quantum noise in mesoscopic conductors (2000) Phys Rev Lett, 84 (9), p. 1986; Robel, I., Subramanian, V., Kuno, M., Kamat, P.V., Quantum dot solar cells.

The maximum current values are measured for zwitterion species. In addition, the current increases with increasing of concentration and scan rate, and decreases with increasing pH. The resulting passivation was studied by spectroscopic analysis such as attenuated total reflection FT infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and mass spectroscopy (MALDI-TOF). From thin film coatings observed on the electrode surface, peptide bonds are found, and are in favor of electropolymerization of these polar amino acids into poly-L-amino acids in an irreversible way. Scanning electronic microscopy was also used to study the morphology of these electrodeposited L-amino acids. The electrodeposited poly-L-amino acids on Pt electrode were tested as bioinspired transducer for pH sensing purposes. © 2016 Elsevier B.V.DFT; Electropolymerization; pH sensing; Polar amino acid; Spectroscopy; Thin polymer filmAlkalinity; Amino acids; Anodic oxidation; Corrosion; Cyclic voltammetry; Electrochemical electrodes; Electrodeposition; Electrodes; Electrolytes; Electropolymerization; Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy; Infrared spectroscopy; Mass spectrometry; pH sensors; Platinum; Polymer films; Quartz crystal microbalances; Semiconducting films; Spectroscopic analysis; Spectroscopy; Attenuated total reflections; Electrochemical behaviors; Electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance; Ft-infrared spectroscopies; pH sensing; Polar amino acids; Scanning electronic microscopy; Thin polymer films; X ray photoelectron spectroscopyMinistry of Higher Education, MOHEWe gratefully acknowledge the Iraqi Ministry Higher Education and the Scientific Research and Cultural Bureau/ Embassy of the Republic of Iraq in Paris – France for financial support.

Hollow pultruded GFRP square tubes (125 mm × 125 mm × 6.5 mm) were bonded together using epoxy adhesives to form the beams using 2–4 cells. Concrete with 15 and 32 MPa compressive strengths was used to fill the top cell of the multi-cell beams. These beams were then tested under static four-point bending and their behaviour was compared with hollow beams. The results showed that up to 27% increase in strength was achieved by using multi-cell beams compared to a single cell beam. Filling in the top cell of the beams with concrete enhanced the capacity as well as the stiffness of the beams. The multi-celled GFRP beams filled with concrete at the top cell failed at 38–80% higher load and exhibited 10–22% higher stiffness than their hollow counterparts. The increase in the compressive strength of the concrete infill from 15 MPa to 32 MPa resulted in up to 14% increase in the failure load but did not enhance the flexural stiffness. Finally, the proposed prediction equation which account for the combined effect of shear and flexural stresses showed a good agreement with the experimental results for hollow cells and up to 3 cells of concrete filled beams. The bearing stress equation gave a better estimation for 4-cell filled section. © 2016 Elsevier LtdComposite beam; Concrete in-fill; Concrete strength; Failure load; Flexural behaviour; Flexural confinement; GFRP; Multi-cell beamsCells; Composite beams and girders; Compressive strength; Cytology; Fiber reinforced plastics; Filled polymers; Shear flow; Stiffness; Composite beam; Concrete strength; Failure load; Flexural behaviour; GFRP; Multicell; ConcretesThe authors are grateful to Wagner’s Composite Fibre Technologies (WCFT), Australia for providing all the GFRP tubes in the experimental programme.

The statistical properties, namely, probability density function (pdf), cumulative distribution function (cdf), and moment generating function (MGF) are obtained in general unified exact analytic expressions. These statistical results are then used to analyze outage probability (OP), average bit error rate probability (ABEP), and average channel capacity (C) of maximal ratio combining (MRC) and selection combining (SC) schemes over i.n.d. composite η-μ/gamma fading channels. The validation of our derived expressions is verified by comparing the numerical and simulation results. © 2016 IEEE.Average bit error rate probability (ABEP); average channel capacity (C); independent and non-identically distributed (i.n.d.); mixture gamma (MG) distribution; outage probability (OP)Bit error rate; Channel capacity; Distribution functions; Fading channels; Mixtures; Probability; Probability distributions; Rayleigh fading; Average bit-error rates; Average channel capacities; Cumulative distribution function; independent and non-identically distributed (i.n.d.); Maximal ratio combining (MRC); Outage probability; Probability density function (pdf); Statistical characterization; Probability density functionYacoub, M., The η-μ Distribution: A general fading distribution (2000) Proc.

The density matrix theory was used to formulate the system while the orthogonalized plane waves for wetting layer-quantum dot (WL-QD) were considered to state the momentum matrix elements for this system. It is found that the momenta follow the smallest energy difference between states with an obvious overlap of the mediated states. Since WL-QD momenta are small, neglecting WL gives high SONS. Millimeter waves are predicted, and a huge SONS can be obtained by the application of more optical fields, which is important in medical and biological applications. The possibility of changing light speed between subluminal and superluminal was predicted here. This opens the way for many applications like multichannel waveguide-multichannel quantum information processing, real quality imaging, and temporal clock. © 2016 Optical Society of America.Electric fields; Ladders; Millimeter waves; Nanocrystals; Quantum optics; Quantum theory; Biological applications; Density matrix theory; Double quantum dots; Momentum matrix element; Quantum-information processing; Second-order nonlinear susceptibility; Second-order nonlinearity; Wetting layer quantum dot; Semiconductor quantum dotsShao, S., Guo, K., Zhang, Z., Li, N., Peng, C., Studies on the second-harmonic generations in cubical quantum dots with applied electric field (2011) Physica B, 406, pp. 393-396; Chen, T., Xie, W., Liang, S., The nonlinear optical rectification of an ellipsoidal quantum dot with impurity in the presence of an electric field (2012) Physica E, 44, pp. 786-790; Xie, W., Nonlinear optical rectification of a hydrogenic impurity in a disc-like quantum dot (2009) Physica B, 404, pp. 4142-4145; Baskoutas, S., Paspalakis, E., Terzis, A.F., Effects of excitons in nonlinear optical rectification in semiparabolic quantum dots (2006) Phys.

Recent studies suggested an association between maternal immune response and this disorder. Methods Forty-nine women with autistic children (cases) were studied in comparison with 73 women with normal children (controls). After interviewing for sociodemographic and clinical information, mothers' sera were tested for the presence of antineuronal antibodies. Results Mothers of autistic children had significantly higher seropositivity for anti-Yo antibodies (34.7%) than control women (13.7%), with an (adjusted odds ratio of 2.60 (95% confidence interval, 1.03–6.61; p = 0.044). Similarly, women with autistic children showed significantly higher seropositivity for antiamphiphysin than the control group (40.8% vs. 17.8%), with an adjusted odds ratio of 2.54 (95% confidence interval, 1.07–6.04; p = 0.035). No significant association was found between autism spectrum disorders and maternal anti-Hu antibodies and anti-Ri antibodies, and the history of autoimmune diseases. Conclusion Some maternal antineuronal antibodies may contribute significantly to the risk of childhood autism. © 2016antineuronal antibodies; autism; autoimmune diseasesamphiphysin antibody; brain antibody; Hu antibody; maternal antibody; ri antibody; unclassified drug; yo antibody; amphiphysin; autoantibody; CDR2 protein, human; nerve protein; adolescent; Article; autism; case control study; child; clinical article; controlled study; female; human; male; mother; risk factor; Autism Spectrum Disorder; blood; immunology; preschool child; Autism Spectrum Disorder; Autoantibodies; Case-Control Studies; Child; Child, Preschool; Female; Humans; Male; Mothers; Nerve Tissue Proteinsamphiphysin, 158624-13-6; amphiphysin; Autoantibodies; CDR2 protein, human; Nerve Tissue ProteinsAmerican Psychiatric Association (APA), Diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders: DSM-IV (1994), p. 886. , American Psychiatric Association Washington, DC; Kogan, M.D., Blumberg, S.J., Schieve, L.A., Boyle, C.A., Perrin, J.M., Ghandour, R.M., Prevalence of parent-reported diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder among children in the US, 2007 (2009) Pediatrics, 124, pp. 1395-1403; Pardo, C.A., Eberhart, C.G., The neurobiology of autism (2007) Brain Pathol, 17, pp. 434-447; Braunschweig, D., Duncanson, P., Boyce, R., Hansen, R., Ashwood, P., Pessah, I.N., Behavioral correlates of maternal antibody status among children with autism (2012) J Autism Dev Disord, 42, pp. 1435-1445; Ashwood, P., Van de water, J., Is autism an autoimmune disease?

In so doing it will follow a reviewing to the historical-developmental approach to questions of legal doctrine, thereby pointing in the direction to which the Iraqi land legal development is proceeding. This paper introduce background reviewing, and discuss the Iraqi's key institutional & regulatory framework, and introducing the administrative authorities of land and giving brief details of its hierarchy and responsibilities in this respect. Accordingly, this paper explores the Iraqi case within 5 different periods of time to review all those doctrines and decrees that shaped the pre-modern laws of land and land rights by focusing on the main administrative progresses during the implementation of the Iraqi national development. The discussion progresses to deal with the Iraqi current crisis in order to assess the role of Iraqi Land Authorities (ILAs) focusing on their efficiency under the influence of the recent situations. The paper also highlighted a set of the Iraq's complex critical factors, which are believed to be the fundamental considerations for implementing the land tenure and its security and saving the land users’ rights in the Iraqi current case. © 2016 Elsevier LtdIraq; Land administration; Land authorities; Land tenureland management; land rights; land tenure; land use planning; legal system; national security; policy implementation; regulatory framework; IraqAbdul Rauf, F., Defining Islamic Statehood: Measuring and Indexing Contemporary Muslim States (2015), Palgrave Macmillan (1137446838, 9781137446831); Abelson, P., (1996) Evaluation of Slum Improvements: Case Study of Visakhapatnam, India, 13, pp. 97-108. , Urban Studies; Al-Nahi, S., An Introduction to Feudalism and the Land System in Iraq (1955), pp. 58-72. , Al-Muthena Press Baghdad; Anthony, H., Loi, C., (2011), www.csis.org, Key issues in shaping Iraq's future and a strategic partnership.

Novel STM-based conductance measurements combined with quantum transport calculations demonstrate that current-perpendicular-to-the-plane (CPP) junctions have three-orders-of-magnitude higher electrical conductances than their current-in-plane (CIP) counterparts, ranging from 2.10-2 G0 for Ni-DPP up to 8.10-2 G0 for Zn-DPP. The metal ion in the center of the DPP skeletons is strongly coordinated with the nitrogens of the pyridyl coated electrodes, with a binding energy that is sensitive to the choice of metal ion. We find that the binding energies of Zn-DPP and Co-DPP are significantly higher than those of Ni-DPP and Cu-DPP. Therefore when combined with its higher conductance, we identify Zn-DPP as the favoured candidate for high-conductance CPP single-molecule devices. © The Author(s) 2016.cobalt; coordination compound; copper; metalloporphyrin; nickel; zinc; chemistry; electric conductivity; electrochemistry; Cobalt; Coordination Complexes; Copper; Electric Conductivity; Electrochemistry; Metalloporphyrins; Nickel; Zinccobalt, 7440-48-4; copper, 15158-11-9, 7440-50-8; nickel, 7440-02-0; zinc, 7440-66-6, 14378-32-6; Cobalt; Coordination Complexes; Copper; Metalloporphyrins; Nickel; ZincMAT2013-47869-C4-P-2, SEV-2015-0496; Seventh Framework Programme, FP7: 277182, 606728; Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council, EPSRC: EP N017188/1, EP/M005178/1, EP/M014452/1; Ministerio de Educación, Cultura y Deporte, MECD; Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad, MINECO: CTQ2012-36090, CTQ2015-71406-ERC, FP7-PEOPLE-2010-RG-277182, RYC-2011-07951; Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas, CSIC; Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, MHESRThis work is supported by UK EPSRC grants EP N017188/1, EP/M014452/1, the European Union Marie-Curie Network MOLESCO 606728 and the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, Thi-Qar University, IRAQ.

To reduce such restriction, this paper proposes an EEG system based on multi-input multi-output (MIMO) technique and polar coded data. In the proposed system, all the channels are sent and received simultaneously, while the frozen bits of polar codes are used for antenna switching. The results show that a location of the switching code at the noisy frozen bits reduces the performance of the proposed system especially in the case of low signal to noise ratio. To improve the system performance, this work suggests a method to encode the data transmitted through the frozen bits. © 2016 IEEE.Biomedical engineering; Electroencephalography; Electrophysiology; Signal to noise ratio; Antenna switching; Frozen bits; Low signal-to-noise ratio; Multi channel; Multi input multi output; Neuromonitoring; Polar codes; MIMO systemsTyner, F., Knott, J., (1989) Fundamentals of EEG Technology-volume 1, Basic Concepts and Methods, , Reven press, New York; Lin, R., Lee, R., Tseng, C., Wu, Y., Jiang, J., Design and implementation of wireless multi-channel EEG recording system and study of EEG clustering method (2006) Biomedical Engineering Applications, Basics and Communication, 18 (6); Bajaj, V., Pachori, R., Classification of seizar and non-sezeizar EEG signals using empirical mode decomposition (2012) IEEE Trans.

By using the contracting mapping theorem (CMT) and increasing and decreasing theorem (IDT), existence and uniqueness results are obtained. Some examples are presented to illustrate the validity of our results. © 2016 by the authors.Contracting mapping theorem; Existence and uniqueness solutions; Local fractional differential equations; Local fractional operatorsHilfer, R., (2000) Applications of Fractional Calculus in Physics, , World Scientific: Singapore; Agarwal, R.B., Meehan, M., Regan, D., (2001) Fixed Point Theory and Applications, , Cambridge University Press: Cambridge, UK; Kilbas, A.A., Srivastava, H.M., Trujillo, J.A., (2006) Theory and Applications of Fractional Differential Equations, , Elsevier: Amsterdam, The Netherlands; Area, I., Nieto, J.J., Losada, J., A note on the fractional logistic equation (2016) Physica A, 444, pp. 182-187; Podlubny, I., (1999) Fractional Differential Equations, , Academic Press: New York, NY, USA; Sorrentinos, G., (2007) Analytic Modeling and Experimental Identification of Viscoelastic Mechanical Systems, , Advances in Fractional Calculus; Springer: New York, NY, USA; Mainardi, F., (1997) Fractals and Fractional Calculus in Continuum Mechanics, , Springer: New York, NY, USA; Magin, R., (2004) Fractional Calculus in Bioengineering, , Begell House Publishers Inc.: Danbury, CT, USA; Jafari, H., Jassim, H.K., Tchier, F., Baleanu, D., On the Approximate Solutions of Local Fractional Differential Equations with Local Fractional Operator (2016) Entropy, 18, p. 150; Srivastava, H.M., Golmankhaneh, A.K., Baleanu, D., Yang, X.J., Local fractional Sumudu transform with application to IVPs on Cantor set (2014) Abstr.

Many healthcare companies have moved their electronic data to the cloud in order to reduce in-house storage, IT development and maintenance costs. However, storing the healthcare records in a third-party server may cause serious storage, security and privacy issues. Therefore, many approaches have been proposed to preserve security as well as privacy in cloud computing projects. Cryptographic-based approaches were presented as one of the best ways to ensure the security and privacy of healthcare data in the cloud. Nevertheless, the cryptographic-based approaches which are used to transfer health records safely remain vulnerable regarding security, privacy, or the lack of any disaster recovery strategy. In this paper, we review the related work on security and privacy preserving as well as disaster recovery in the eHealth cloud domain. Then we propose two approaches, the Security-Preserving approach and the Privacy-Preserving approach, and a disaster recovery plan. The Security-Preserving approach is a robust means of ensuring the security and integrity of Electronic Health Records, and the Privacy-Preserving approach is an efficient authentication approach which protects the privacy of Personal Health Records. Finally, we discuss how the integrated approaches and the disaster recovery plan can ensure the reliability and security of cloud projects. © 2016 Elsevier LtdDisaster recovery plan; eHealth cloud; EHR; PHR; Privacy; SecurityCloud computing; Cryptography; Digital storage; Disasters; Health; Health care; Recovery; Disaster recovery plan; Efficient authentication; Ehealth; Electronic health record; Large amounts of data; Personal health record; Security; Security and privacy issues; Data privacy; Article; cloud computing; comparative study; computer security; consumer; disaster planning; electronic health record; electronic patient record; emergency care; health care cost; health care personnel; health care planning; human; interpersonal communication; priority journal; privacy; telehealth; electronic health record; information retrieval; medical record; standards; telemedicine; Cloud Computing; Computer Security; Electronic Health Records; Health Records, Personal; Humans; Information Storage and Retrieval; Privacy; TelemedicineMell, P., Grance, T., The NIST Definition of Cloud Computing, 2011; Sugumaran, M., Murugan, B.B., Kamalraj, D., An architecture for data security in cloud computing, in: Proceedings of the 2014 World Congress on Computing and Communication Technologies (WCCCT), 2014, pp 252–255; Kushida, K.E., Murray, J., Zysman, J., Cloud Computing: From Scarcity to Abundance, BRIE Working Paper, Springer, 2014; Zissis, D., Lekkas, D., Addressing cloud computing security issues (2012) Future Gener.

In the limit of a narrow filter (λ = 0), the QD-LED equations reduce under some conditions to the equations for a QD-LED with optical feedback, whereas they become the Lang Kobayashi equations in the limit of an unbounded filter width (λ > 0). Through simulations based on the rate equations for a QD-LED with filtered external optical feedback modes, we show that the output’s nonlinear dynamical system attractors can be controlled through the filter parameters: the filter’s spectral width λ and its central frequency Ωm. This is illustrated for a filter-induced global bistability. © 2016, © The Author(s) 2016.control; optical feedback; Quantum dotControl engineering; Dynamical systems; Nanocrystals; Nonlinear dynamical systems; Nonlinear equations; Optical feedback; Semiconductor quantum dots; Central frequency; External optical feedback; Filter parameter; Filtered optical feedback; Lang-kobayashi equations; Mean frequency; Quantum-dot light emitting diodes; Spectral widths; Organic light emitting diodes (OLED)(2008) Quantum dots explained, , http://www.evidenttech.com/quantum-dots-explained.html, Evident Technologies, Inc, [Online], (accessed 1 December 2008); (2008) Quantum-dot light-emitting diode (LED), , http://www.evidenttech.com/Quantum-Dot-(LED).html, Evident Technologies, Inc, [Online], (accessed 1 December 2008); Al-Husseini, H., Al-Khursan, A., Al-Dabagh, S., III-Nitride QD lasers (2009) Open Nanosci J, 3, pp. 1-11; Dahmani, B., Hollberg, L., Drullinger, R., Frequency stabilization of semiconductor lasers by resonant optical feedback (1987) Opt Lett, 12, pp. 876-878; Ermakov, I.V., Tronciu, V.Z., Colet, P., Controlling the unstable emission of a semiconductor laser subject to conventional optica l feedback with a filtered feedback branch (2009) Opt Exp, 17 (11), pp. 8749-8755; Erneux, T., Hek, G., Yousefi, M., The injection laser limit of lasers subject to optical feedback (2004) Proc.

It is a novel technique to build net-shaped or near-net-shaped metal components in a layer-by-layer manner via applying metal wire and selection of a heat source such as laser beam, electron beam, or electric arc. It is a manufacturing method used for production of complex featured and large-scaled parts, especially in aerospace and metal-die industries. This method can lower the cost of fabricated parts by reducing further machining and finishing processes and shortening lead time. This article presents a comprehensive literature review on shaped metal deposition, and it mainly aims to highlight some of the areas which were reported by the researchers in this field to give an extensive overview of shaped metal deposition processes, classification of its methods, and their applications. The presented literature review covers extensive details on microstructure, mechanical properties, and residual stresses induced in the metallic parts produced by various shaped metal deposition techniques as well as fabrication of dual-material parts. Additionally, grain refinement of the deposition morphologies using various techniques, especially the arc pulsation process, was mentioned. This study demonstrates that shaped metal deposition method using wire can be considered as a distinctive low-cost method for fabricating large-scaled components due to high deposition rates, high efficiencies, and dense part production capabilities. However, the accuracy and surface finish are less compared to laser and electron beam melting methods. © IMechE 2015.additive manufacturing; Shaped metal deposition; wire and arc additive manufacturing3D printers; Deposition; Deposition rates; Electric arcs; Electron beams; Grain refinement; Laser beams; Manufacture; Stresses; Wire; Deposition morphology; High deposition rates; Laser and electron beams; Literature reviews; Manufacturing methods; Production capabilities; Shaped metal deposition process; Shaped metal depositions; MetalsAntonysamy, A.A., (2012) Microstructure, Texture and Mechanical Property Evolution during Additive Manufacturing of Ti6Al4V Alloy for Aerospace Applications, , PhD Thesis, University of Manchester, Manchester; Buckner, M.A., Lonnie, J.L., Automating and accelerating the additive manufacturing design process with multi-objective constrained evolutionary optimization and HPC/Cloud computing (2012) Proceedings of the 2012 IEEE International Conference on Future of Instrumentation International Workshop (FIIW), pp. 1-4. , Gatlinburg, TN, 8-9 October, New York: IEEE; Wohlers, T., (2009) State of the Industry, Wohlers Report 2009, Annual Worldwide Progress Report, , Fort Collins, CO: Wohlers Associates, Inc; Shames, H., (2010) Development of A Selection Program for Additive Manufacturing System, , Master's Thesis, Stellenbosch University, Stellenbosch, South Africa; Terrazas, C.A., Gaytan, S.M., Rodriguez, E., Multi-material metallic structure fabrication using electron beam melting (2014) Int J Adv Manuf Tech, 71, pp. 33-45; Arcella, F.G., Froes, F.H., Producing titanium aerospace components from powder using laser forming (2000) J Min Met Mat S, 52 (5), pp. 28-30; Frazier, W.E., Metal additive manufacturing: A review (2014) J Mater Eng Perform, 23 (6), pp. 1817-1928; Van Niekerk, G.J., (2007) A Model for Transparent Data Exchanging in Layered Manufacturing, , PhD Thesis, Faculty of Science, University of Johannesburg, Johannesburg, South Africa; Griffith, M.L., Ensz, M.T., Puskar, J.D., Understanding the microstructure and properties of components fabricated by laser engineered net shaping (LENS) (2000) Material Research Society, 625, pp. 9-20; Zhang, K., Liu, W., Shang, X., Study on scanning pattern during laser metal deposition shaping (2009) Proceedings of the 2009 IEEE 2nd International Conference on Intelligent Computation Technology and Automation, 4, pp. 668-671. , Changsha, China, 10-11 October, New York: IEEE; Jardini, A.L., Larosa, M.A., Bernardes, L.F., Application of direct metal laser sintering in titanium alloy for cranioplasty (2011) Proceedings of the 6th BRAZILIAN Conference on Manufacturing Engineering, Caxias Do sul, pp. 1-7. , 11-15 April, Caxias do Sul: ABCM; Zhang, K., Liu, W., Microstructure evolution of stainless steel during laser metal deposition shaping (2009) Proceedings of the 2009 IEEE International Conference on Measuring Technology and Mechatronics Automation, 2, pp. 93-96. , Zhangjiajie, China, 11-12 April, New York: IEEE; Kloosterman, A., Wentzel, C., Carton, E., SLAM, a fast high volume additive manufacturing concept by impact welding; Application to Ti6Al4V alloy (2006) Proceedings of the SAE International, Aerospace Manufacturing and Automated Fastening Conference and Exhibition, , Toulouse, 12-14 September.

The governing equations for both fluid flow and heat transfer are solved by using the finite volume method (FVM). The bottom wall of the enclosure is heated while the upper wall is cooled at lower temperature and the other two sidewalls are adiabatic. Four types of nanofluids (Al2O3, CuO, SiO2, and TiO2 with pure water) with nanoparticle volume fraction (ϕ) in the range of 1–4% and nanoparticle diameter in the range of 25–70 nm were used. This investigation covers Richardson number and Reynolds number in the ranges of 0.1–10 and 100–1200, respectively. The trapezoidal lid-driven enclosure was studied for different rotational angles (Φ) in the range of 30°–60°, different inclination sidewalls angles (γ) in the range of 30°–60° and various aspect ratios (A) ranged from 0.5 to 2. This investigation is also examined the opposing and aiding flow conditions. The results show that all types of nanofluids have higher Nusselt number compared with pure water. It is found that SiO2–water has the highest Nusselt number followed by Al2O3–water, TiO2–water, and CuO–water. The Nusselt number increases as the volume fraction increases but it decreases as the diameter of the nanoparticles of nanofluids increases. The Nusselt number increases with the decrease of rotational angle and inclination angle from 30° to 60° and with the increase of aspect ratio. The results of flow direction show that the aiding flow gives higher Nusselt number than the opposing flow. © 2016 Elsevier LtdHeat transfer; Lid driven; Mixed convection; Nanofluids; Trapezoidal enclosureAluminum; Aspect ratio; Copper oxides; Enclosures; Finite volume method; Flow of fluids; Heat convection; Heat transfer; Mixed convection; Nanoparticles; Nusselt number; Reynolds number; Titanium dioxide; Volume fraction; Fluid flow and heat transfers; Governing equations; Lid-driven; Nanofluids; Nanoparticle diameter; Nanoparticle volume fractions; Numerical investigations; Trapezoidal enclosure; NanofluidicsAbu-Nada, E., Chamkha, A.J., Mixed convection flow in a lid-driven inclined square enclosure filled with a nanofluid (2010) Eur.

Effects of separation flow and nanofluids on thermal performance for laminar range presented experimentally and numerically in this review. The augmentations of heat transfer with fluid and nanofluid flow through sudden expansion, over backward and forward facing step, and rib channels have been concerned. The experimental results showed good agreement with numerical results and indicated the effects of separation flow and nanoparticles on augmentation of heat transfer rate. The results showed increase in Nusselt number with increase of Reynolds number, step height, and number of ribs. It was detected that by increasing the nanoparticle volume concentrations of nanofluids, improves the heat transfer coefficient. Also different nanoparticles used in the literature investigations are based on thermal conductivity where enhancement of heat transfer rate was obtained significantly. © 2016 Elsevier LtdBackward facing step; Forward facing step; Laminar flow; Nanofluids, sudden expansion; Ribbed channelFacings; Heat transfer; Laminar flow; Nanoparticles; Reynolds number; Thermal conductivity; Thermoelectric power plants; Backward facing step; Enhancement of heat transfer; Forward facing step; Heat transfer augmentation; Practical engineering applications; Ribbed channels; Sudden expansion; Volume concentration; NanofluidicsAndré, B., Lecture 1 — Introduction to CFD Applied Computational Fluid Dynamics (2002), pp. 1-36. , http://www.bakker.org; Togun, H., Abdulrazzaq, T., Kazi, S.N., Kadhum, A.A.H., Badarudin, A., Ariffin, M.K.A., Emad, S., Numerical study of turbulent heat transfer in separated flow: review (2013) Int.

The momentum matrix elements are calculated including the wetting layer. The ladder-plus-Y structure exhibits pattern-free output with high bit rate (50 Tbps), which is critical in optical communication applications. It is shown that very high ground-state occupation with periodic shape for state occupations is critical in obtaining a pattern-free eye diagram. © 2016 Optical Society of America.Ground state; Ladders; Nanocrystals; Optical communication; All-optical processing; Communication application; Density matrix theory; Double quantum dots; High bit rates; Momentum matrix element; Wetting layer; Y-structures; Semiconductor quantum dotsSahraee, E., Zarifkar, A., Sanaee, M., Improvement of gain recovery in QD-VCSOA at 1-Tb/s cross gain modulation using an additional light beam (2014) IEEE J.

So that a compressive residual stresses are generated to a certain radial depth at the cylinder wall. The objective of the present study, is to investigate the effect of autofrettage process on radial, circumferential and total stresses by using von Mises yield criteria. Numerical simulation carried out on ABAQUS software to investigate the stresses distribution and calculate the autofrettage radius. The results reveal that, the autofrettage process of thick-wall cylinder lead to decrease the hoob and maximum von Mises stresses and relocate them from the inner surface of the cylinder to somewhere along it's thickness. The reduction in maximum stresses is strongly depend on autofrettage pressure, it was varying from ( 3.6% at Pautofrettage = 105 MPa to 19.2% at Pautofrettage = 130 MPa ) Also, it has been found , there is no effect of number of autofrettage stages on both of maximum von Mises stress and autofrettage radius. © IAEME Publication.Autofrettage; Autofrettage radius; Hoob and axial stresses; Optimum autofrettage pressure; Radial; Von Mises yield criteriaAyob, A.B., Tamin, M.N., Elbasheer, K., Pressure Limits of Thick - Walled cylinders, Poceedings of the international Multi Conference of Engineers and Computer scientist (2009) IMECS, pp. 8-20. , Hong Kong, March; Zhiqun, W., Elastic - Plastic fracture analysis of a thick - Walled cylinder (1995) International Journal of Pressure Vessels Piping, 63, pp. 165-168; Dinesh Babu, D., Jega Balaji, T., Theoretical and finite Element Analysis oof High Pressure Components (2013) IOSR Journal of Engineering, 3 (2), pp. 25-34. , Feb; Ayob, A., Kabashi Elbasheer, M., Optimum Autofrettage Pressure in thick Cylinders (2007) Jurnal Mekanikal, (24), pp. 1-24. , December; Wahi, N., Ayob, A., Kabashi Elbasheer, M., Effect of Optimum Autofrettage on Pressure Limits of thick walled Cylinders (2011) International Journal of Environmental Science and Development, 2 (4), pp. 329-333. , August; Jamadar, I.M., Patil, S.M., Chavan, S.S., Pawar, G.B., Rakate, G.N., Thickness Optimization of Inclined Pressure Vessel Using Non Linear Finite Element Analysis Using Design by Analysis Approach (2013) International Journal of Mechanical Engineering and Technology (IJMET), 3 (3), pp. 682-689; Wahi, N., Ayob, A., Elbasheer, M.K., Effect of Autofrettage on Allowable Pressure of thick - Walled Cylinders (2011) International Conference on Environmental and Agriculture Engineering, 15, pp. 14-16. , Singapore, IPCBEE, IACSIT Press; Zhu, R., Yang, J., Autofrettage of thick cylinders (1998) International Journal of Pressure Vessels and Piping, 75, pp. 443-446; Hu, Z., Puttagunta, S., Computer modeling of Internal Pressure Autofrettage Process of a Thick - Walled Cylinder with the Bauschinger Effect American Transactions on Engineering and Applied Sciences, 1 (2). , eISSN 2229-1660; Amin, Md.T., Md Ali, A.R., Ahmed, T., Ahmed, F., Optimum Design of Autofrettaged thicked - Walled cylinders (2013) Global Journal of Researches in Engineering, 13 (8). , Version 1,, Online ISSN: 2249-4596, Print ISSN: 0975-5861; Deshpande, S.S., Desai, P.N., Pandey, K.P., Pangarkar, N.P., Detailed Studies on Stress Concentration by Classical and Finite Element Analysis (2016) International Journal of Mechanical Engineering and Technology (IJMET), 7 (2), pp. 148-167; Tried, F., Schedelmaier, J., Poelzl, M., Autofrettage - Basic Information and practical application on components for waterjet cutting (2005) American Waterjet Conference, 2005. , WJTA, August 21-23, Houston, Texas; Md Ali, A.R., Ghosh, N.Ch., Tanvir-E-Alam, Optimum Design of Pressure Vessel Subjected to Autofrettage Process (2011) International Journal of Mechanical, Aerospace, Industrial, Mechatronic and Manufacturing Engineering, 4 (10), pp. 1040-1045; Callister, W., Jr., (2005) Material Science and Engineering; An Introduction, , 7th Edition, New Delhi; (2009) ABAQUS Ver. 6.9, , Getting Started; standard User's ManualIAEME Publication09766340EnglishInt.

Nineteen unrelated strains of L monocytogenes were recovered from approximately 1300 food and food processing environmental samples collected from 2007 to 2011 as part of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration pathogen surveillance program. The L. monocytogenes environmental isolates were characterized by serotyping, subtyping, and identification of antimicrobial resistance determinants. The serovars of L monocytogenes were 1/2a, 4b, and 1/2b. PFGE using Ascl digested total DNA showed genetic diversity; there were 10 PFGE pulse-types and 5 PFGE groups. All strains except one strain were susceptible to ampicillin, erythromycin, vancomycin, ciprofloxacin, and chloramphenicol but resistant to extended-spectrum cephalosporins (ESC). The environmental strains were predominantly resistant to streptomycin and tetracycline. No strain was resistant to 3 or more antimicrobial classes. All tetracycline-resistant strains were serotype 1/2a, and only tetM was amplified from the chromosomal DNA. This study, which reports the genetic diversity and antimicrobial resistance of foodborne L monocytogenes, may be useful in food safety control programs to reduce the risk of transmission of L monocytogenes to food products.

In this study, the elastic properties of the pultruded glass fibre-reinforced polymer square sections were evaluated firstly using full-scale with different shear span to depth (a/d) ratios and tested under static four-point bending. Back calculation and simultaneous methods were then employed to evaluate the flexural modulus and shear stiffness and were compared with the results of the coupon tests. Secondly, the full-scale beams were tested up to failure to determine their capacity and failure mechanisms. Finally, prediction equations describing the behaviour of the pultruded glass fibre-reinforced polymer square beams were proposed and compared with the experimental results. The results indicate that the back calculation method gives more reliable values of elastic properties of glass fibre-reinforced polymer profiles. In addition, the behaviour of the beams is strongly affected by the a/d ratios. The shear was found to have a significant contribution on the behaviour of beams with lower a/d ratios while the flexural stress played a major part for higher a/d ratios. The proposed equation, which accounts for the combined effect of the shear and flexural stresses, reasonably predicted the failure load of pultruded glass fibre-reinforced polymer square beams. © The Author(s) 2015.characterization; Elastic properties; failure load; flexural; GFRP beams; shearBeams and girders; Bending (forming); Bridge decks; Characterization; Elasticity; Fibers; Glass; Glass fibers; Polymers; Reinforced plastics; Reinforcement; Shear flow; Shearing; Elastic properties; Failure load; Fibre-reinforced polymer composites; flexural; GFRP beams; Glass fibre reinforced polymers; Prediction equations; Shear span-to-depth ratios; Fiber reinforced plasticsBakis, C., Bank, L.C., Brown, V., Fiber-reinforced polymer composites for construction-state-of-the-art review (2002) J Compos Constr, 6, pp. 73-87; Hollaway, L., A review of the present and future utilisation of FRP composites in the civil infrastructure with reference to their important in-service properties (2010) Constr Build Mater, 24, pp. 2419-2445; Bank, L.C., Shear coefficients for thin-walled composite beams (1987) Compos Struct, 8, pp. 47-61; Barbero, E.J., Fu, S.-H., Raftoyiannis, I., Ultimate bending strength of composite beams (1991) J Mater Civil Eng, 3, pp. 292-306; Omidvar, B., Shear coefficient in orthotropic thin-walled composite beams (1998) J Compos Constr, 2, pp. 46-56; Nagaraj, V., GangaRao, H.V., Static behavior of pultruded GFRP beams (1997) J Compos Constr, 1, pp. 120-129; Bank, L.C., (2006) Composite for Construction Structural Design with FRP Materials, p. 551. , NJ: Jone Wiley & Sons; Davalos, J.F., Salim, H., Qiao, P., Lopez-Anido, R., Barbero, E., Analysis and design of pultruded FRP shapes under bending (1996) Compos B: Eng, 27, pp. 295-305; Roberts, T., Masri, H., Section properties and buckling behavior of pultruded FRP profiles (2003) J Reinf Plast Compos, 22, pp. 1305-1317; Manalo, A., Mutsuyoshi, H., Matsui, T., Testing and characterization of thick hybrid fibre composites laminates (2012) Int J Mech Sci, 63, pp. 99-109; Cardoso, D., Harries, K., Batista, E., On the determination of mechanical properties for pultruded GFRP sections (2014) International Conference on FRP Composites in Civil Engineering, , Vancouver, Canada: Internationl Institute for FRP in Construction; Guades, E., Aravinthan, T., Islam, M.M., Characterisation of the mechanical properties of pultruded fibre-reinforced polymer tube (2014) Mater des, 63, pp. 305-315; Bank, L.C., Flexural and shear moduli of full-section fiber reinforced plastic(FRP) pultruded beams (1989) J Test Eval, 17, pp. 40-45; Neto, A., Rovere, H., Flexural stiffness characterization of fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) pultruded beams (2007) Compos Struct, 81, pp. 274-282; Mottram, J., Shear modulus of standard pultruded fiber reinforced plastic material (2004) J Compos Constr, 8, pp. 141-147; Chambers, R.E., ASCE design standard for pultruded fiber-reinforced-plastic (FRP) structures (1997) J Compos Constr, 1, pp. 26-38; Parke, G., Hewson, N., ICE manual of bridge engineering (2008) History, 6, p. 3; (1996) Textile-glass-reinforced Plastics, Prepegs, Moulding Compounds and Laminates: Determination of the Textile-glass and Mineral-filler Content - Calcination Methods, , ISO 1172; (2006) ASTM D7250/D7250M-06 Standard Practice for Determine Sandwich Beam Flexural and Shear Stiffeness, , ASTM D7250.

The other remaining walls forming the geometry are kept stationary and adiabatic. This research is accomplished with different Reynolds number, Re = 5000, 10,000, 15,000 and 30,000. Numerical methodology based on the finite volume method is utilised. The simulations and analysis have been carried out by evaluating the performance of two turbulence methods, Unsteady Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (URANS) and Large Eddy Simulation (LES), in terms of flow vectors, isotherm contours, turbulent kinetic energy, the average Nusselt number (Nuav) and the local Nusselt (Nulocal) number along the hot part of the bottom wall. The results show that by increasing the Reynolds number leads to enhanced Nusselt number and turbulent kinetic energy of the fluid in the domain. Moreover, both LES and URANS solutions captured the existence of the two primary vortexes (clockwise and anticlockwise). However, the comparisons have demonstrated clearly the ability and accuracy of the LES method in predicting the secondary vortexes in the corners of the cavity. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd.LES; Lid-driven cavity; Mixed convection; Turbulent flow; Unsteady simulation; URANSFinite volume method; Heat flux; Heat transfer; Isotherms; Kinetic energy; Kinetics; Large eddy simulation; Mixed convection; Navier Stokes equations; Numerical methods; Nusselt number; Reynolds equation; Reynolds number; Turbulent flow; Vortex flow; Isothermal sidewalls; Lid-driven cavities; Numerical methodologies; Turbulent kinetic energy; Unsteady mixed convection; Unsteady reynolds-averaged navier-stokes; Unsteady simulations; URANS; Heat convectionElshehabey, H.M., Hady, F., Ahmed, S.E., Mohamed, R., Numerical investigation for natural convection of a nanofluid in an inclined L-shaped cavity in the presence of an inclined magnetic field (2014) Int.

A number of experimental investigations and developments for numerical models have been established to understand the strength enhancement behaviour of the FRP-concrete confined section. This paper aims to investigate the influence of the confinement parameters including the concrete strength and the confining pressure on the strength enhancement of FRP-confined concrete specimens. Investigated data were collected from experimental works performed by the authors as well as results surveyed from state-of-the-art papers carefully selected and reviewed to provide an overview and in-depth knowledge in the development of this strengthening technique. Utilizing 927 experimental data from 127 papers from the literature, a 3-dimensional graph presentation (surface chart) have been utilized to investigate the strength enhancement of the FRP-confined concrete. This new graphing format assisted in demonstrating the non-linear influences for each of the parameters investigated on the confinement parameters on the strength enhancement of FRP-confined section. Unlike the conventional 2-dimensional plot of the confined concrete strength versus the confining pressure (both normalized by the unconfined concrete strength), the 3-dimensional graphing approach introduced in this paper is found to provide more information about the strength enhancement. Utilizing a Gauss surface fitting function, a refined enhancement ratio expression incorporating the individual influence of the confinement parameters is proposed in the paper and experimentally evaluated. © 2016 Elsevier LtdCompressive strength; Concrete cylinders; Confinement; Fibre reinforce polymer; StrengtheningColumns (structural); Compressive strength; Plasma confinement; Rock pressure; Strengthening (metal); Concrete cylinders; Confining pressures; Enhancement ratios; Experimental investigations; FRP confined concrete; In-depth knowledge; Strength enhancement; Strengthening technique; ConcretesFardis, M.N., Khalili, H., FRP-encased concrete as a structural material (1982) Mag.

A systems approach to construction safety enables considering: multiple project elements simultaneously; connections between different elements; and all system elements affected by safety risk. This paper describes recent and current research to conceptualize a typical building project in terms of connections between workers, activities, and design elements, and to verify and analyze impacts of the design and worker interactions on worker safety. Prior research provides the basis for a network tying the design elements, construction activities, and work crews on a typical building project together along with the extent of interaction between each of the system elements in terms of safety. In conjunction with this systems approach, the researchers propose a concept for viewing and managing construction safety through four different types of connections, or "degrees of connectivity," between the different workers, activities, and design elements in the system. The degrees of connectivity are defined as: interacting with the design element during its construction (DoC #1); interacting with the design element in its final form to attach another component to it (DoC #2) or by working in the vicinity of it (DoC #3); and indirectly interacting with the design element through another worker (DoC #4). To support and verify the presence of the concept in practice, the researchers conducted a survey of construction personnel. The survey results confirm that the four different degrees of connectivity are present and felt during construction operations, and indicate that attention should be given to all design elements, activities, and workers to which a worker is "connected". According to the survey respondents, DoC's #1 and #2 are recognized as the most widely present on construction sites. Eighty percent of the respondents believe that the design element has a moderate or greater impact on worker safety while it is being constructed. These initial research steps provide the starting point for continuing study that aims to develop and demonstrate the degrees of connectivity concept linking workers and design elements, with the goal of understanding how to design a project and work operations in order to improve safety during construction. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.

We represent Fn(x, y, z; q) by two operators: the homogeneous q-shift operator L(bθx y) given by Saad and Sukhi (Appl Math Comput 215:4332–4339, 2010), and the Cauchy companion operator E(a, b; θ) given by Chen (q-Difference Operator and Basic Hypergeometric Series, 2009) to derive the generating function, symmetric property, Mehler’s formula, Rogers formula, another Roger-type formula, linearization formula, and an extended Rogers formula for the trivariate q-polynomials. Then, we give the corresponding formulas for our new definitions of Hahn polynomials ψn(a)(x|q) and ψn(a)(x,y|q) by representing Hahn polynomials by the operators L(bθx y) and E(a, b; θ) , and by a special substitution in the trivariate q-polynomials Fn(x, y, z; q). © 2015, Springer Science+Business Media New York.Cauchy companion operator; Generating function; Hahn polynomials; Homogeneous q-shift operator; Mehler’s formula; Rogers formulaAbdlhusein, M.A., The Euler operator for basic hypergeometric series (2014) Int.

First, the relations of the electron and hole contributions to the current were stated. The absorption coefficient was calculated for the structure, and two windows were predicted in the quantum efficiency spectrum, which is important in the detection applications. High quantum efficiency was obtained due to the Bi inclusion in the structure of the photodetector. © 2016 Optical Society of America.Absorption spectroscopy; Aluminum gallium arsenide; Efficiency; Nanocrystals; Photodetectors; Photons; Semiconductor quantum dots; Absorption co-efficient; High quantum efficiency; n-Type doping; P-type doping; Quantum efficiency spectra; Quantum-dot photodetectors; Quantum efficiencyAl-Nashy, B., Al-Khursan, A.H., The composition effect on the dynamics of electrons in Sb-based QD-SOAs (2012) Selected Topics on Optical Amplifiers in Present Scenario, pp. 153-176. , S.

The batch experiments were conducted at three different TWAS/RS (volume basis) ratios of 1:3, 1:1 and 3:1, respectively. Furthermore, the modified Gompertz model was introduced to predict the biogas yield and evaluate the kinetic parameters. The highest biogas production (409.2 L/kg VSadded) was achieved from co-digestion of TWASthermo-alkaline and RSNaOH at mixing ratio of 1:1, which is greater by 42.2% and 5.9% than that of digesting TWASthermo-alkaline, and RSNaOH alone, respectively. The highest VS removal rate was obtained from the co-digestion of TWASthermo-alkaline and RSNaOH at mixing ratio of 1:3, which is greater by 55.8% and 14.0% than those of mono-digestion. The modified Gompertz model (R2: 0.993-0.998 and 0.993-0.999 for mono- and co-digestions, respectively) showed a good fit to the experimental results and the estimated parameters indicating that the pretreatments and co-digestion of substrates markedly improved the biogas production rate. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd.Anaerobic co-digestion; NaOH/H2O2 pretreatment; Rice straw; Thermal/thermo-alkaline pretreatment; Thickened waste activated sludgebiogas; cellulose; hemicellulose; hydrogen peroxide; lignin; methane; sodium hydroxide; biofuel; sewage; sodium hydroxide; activated sludge; alkalinity; anoxic conditions; biogas; digestibility; mixing ratio; pollutant removal; rice; straw; temperature effect; activated sludge; alkalinity; anaerobic digestion; anaerobic fermentation; Article; chemical oxygen demand; energy balance; nonhuman; particle size; rice; rice straw; solubilization; straw; thermal conductivity; thickened waste activated sludge; waste water management; waste water treatment plant; anaerobic growth; biochemical oxygen demand; bioreactor; Oryza; procedures; sewage; theoretical model; waste management; Anaerobiosis; Biofuels; Biological Oxygen Demand Analysis; Bioreactors; Hydrogen Peroxide; Models, Theoretical; Oryza; Sewage; Sodium Hydroxide; Waste Managementcellulose, 61991-22-8, 68073-05-2, 9004-34-6; hemicellulose, 63100-39-0, 63100-40-3, 9034-32-6; hydrogen peroxide, 7722-84-1; lignin, 9005-53-2; methane, 74-82-8; sodium hydroxide, 1310-73-2; Biofuels; Hydrogen Peroxide; Sewage; Sodium HydroxideSchizophrenia Research Fund, SRF; Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, MHESR; Fundamental Research Funds for the Central Universities: 2015030809020369, 2015TS113The authors would like to acknowledge the financial supports of Iraqi scholarship foundation from Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research of Iraq , Fundamental Research Funds for the Central Universities ( 2015TS113 ), Wuhan International Science and technology cooperation project (No. 2015030809020369 ) and SRF for ROCS, SEM, China.

Using Feynman diagram, the relation of SONS for sum frequency generation was stated. Two cases were studied, which are the interband (IB) and intersubband (ISB) transitions with the consideration of the QD inhomogeneity, which is shown to be important in SONS calculations. For the ISB case, a resonance near 92 μm was predicted, which is important for infrared applications. Energy subbands and momentum matrix elements are shown as the main factors controlling SONS. It was found that adding some detuning to the pump will extend the wavelength by 45 μm which might applicable for Terahertz (THz) applications. Double resonance was shown to blue shifts the wavelength. © 2016 Elsevier B.V.

The expression for modeling state of the network router interface is used for representing the average packet delay as time-varying function. The conditions of ensuring QoS for the set of metrics as the packet rate and average delay are expressed. The novelty of the model is that the network metric is a function of time, and it takes into account that the average queue length and average packet delay take their limit values after convergence time. The results of the research demonstrated that the use of the dynamic tensor model allows ensuring QoS requirements more precisely. © 2016 IEEE.flow-based model; multipath routing; Quality of Service; queuing system; tensor modelCongestion control (communication); Interface states; Network routing; Packet networks; Routers; Tensors; Time varying networks; Average packet delays; Average queue lengths; Flow-based models; Multi path routing; Quality of service guarantees; Queuing systems; Tensor model; Time-varying functions; Quality of serviceKron, G., (1939) Tensor Analysis of Networks, 635p. , Wiley, New York; Lemeshko, A.V., Evseeva, O.Y., Garkusha, S.V., Research on tensor model of multipath routing in telecommunication network with support of service quality by greate number of indices (2014) Telecommunications and Radio Engineering, 73 (15), pp. 1339-1360; Wang, W.-P., Tipper, D., Banerjee, S., A simple approximation for modeling nonstationary queues (1996) Proceedings of the Fifteenth Annual Joint Conference of the IEEE Computer Societies (INFOCOM '96), 1, pp. 255-262; Lemeshko, O., Yeremenko, O., Dynamic presentation of tensor model for multipath QoS-routing (2016) Modern Problems of Radio Engineering, Telecommunications and Computer Science, Proceedings of the International Conference TCSET'2016, pp. 601-604. , Lviv-Slavsko, Ukraine, February 23-26Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.2016 International Conference on Electronics and Information Technology, EIT 201623 May 2016 through 27 May 20161224639781509022267EnglishInt.

Different growth methods yield various qualities of material, and thin-films grown using organic precursors lead to a high probability of carbon contamination. A defect attracting a great deal of attention in this material is the oxygen vacancy, mainly due to its mobility and electrical donor properties.

The underlying dynamics is affected by a sidle node, which returns to an elliptical shape when the wetting layer (WL) is neglected. Both filter width and time delay change the appearance of different dynamics (chaotic and mixed mode oscillations, MMOs). The results agree with the experimental observations. Here, the fixed point analysis for QDs was done for the first time. For QD-LED with FOF, the system transits from the coherence collapse case in conventional optical feedback to a coherent case with a filtered mode in FOF. It was found that the WL washes out the modes which is an unexpected result. This may attributed to the longer capture time of WL compared with that between QD states. Thus, WL reduces the chaotic behavior. © 2016 Author(s).Nanocrystals; Optical feedback; Oscillators (mechanical); Semiconductor quantum dots; Coherence collapse; Filtered optical feedback; Fixed point analysis; Mixed mode oscillations; Quantum-dot light emitting diodes; Theoretical investigations; Time delay changes; Underlying dynamics; Organic light emitting diodes (OLED)Kim, T.R., (2008) Quantum-Dot Light-Emitting Diode (LED), , (Evident Technologies, Inc.); Komine, T., Nakagawa, M., Fundamental analysis for visible-light communication system using LED lights (2004) IEEE Trans.

Hollow pultruded Glass Fibre Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) square beams (125 mm × 125 mm × 6.5 mm) filled with concrete having 10, 37 and 43.5 MPa compressive strength were tested under static four-point bending. The results indicate that filled GFRP beams failed at a load 100-141% higher than hollow beams and showed 25% increase in stiffness. However, the increase in concrete compressive strength from 10 to 43.5 MPa increased the ultimate load by only 19% but exhibited almost the same flexural stiffness indicating that a low strength concrete is a practical solution to fill the GFRP profiles to be used as beam applications. Moreover, the concrete infill prevented the premature buckling and web crushing of the GFRP tube. The maximum strain measured at failure is similar to the compressive strain determined from the coupon test indicating the effective utilisation of the GFRP material. Finally, Fibre Model Analysis which considered the partial confined stress-strain curve for the concrete infill gave an accurate prediction of the flexural behaviour of the concrete filled GFRP sections. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd.Composite beam; Concrete strength; Failure load; Flexural behaviour; Flexural confinement; GFRPBeams and girders; Bending (forming); Composite beams and girders; Concretes; Fiber reinforced plastics; Filled polymers; Stiffness; Stress-strain curves; Composite beam; Concrete strength; Failure load; Flexural behaviour; GFRP; Compressive strengthThe authors are grateful to Wagner’s Composite Fibre Technologies (WCFT), Australia for providing all the GFRP tubes in the experimental programme.

The range of Reynolds number varied from 75 to 225 with volume fraction on CuO nanoparticles varied from 1 to 4 % at constant heat flux was investigated. Continuity, momentum, and energy equations with finite volume method in two dimensions were employed. Four different configurations of backward-facing step (without obstacle, with obstacle of 1.5 mm, with obstacle of 3 mm, with obstacle of 4.5 mm) were considered to find the best thermal performance. The results show that the maximum augmentation in heat transfer was about 22 % for backward-facing step with obstacle of 4.5 mm and using CuO nanoparticles at Reynolds number of 225 compared with backward-facing step without obstacle. It is also observed that increase in size of recirculation region with increase of height obstacle on the channel wall has remarkable effect on thermal performance. The results also found that increases in Reynolds number, height obstacle, and volume fractions of CuO nanoparticles lead to increase of pressure drop. © 2015, The Author(s).Backward-facing step; Laminar flow;

The presences of phytochemicals, antibacterial and antioxidant activities were investigated. Parts of medicinal plants were extracted with acetone 50%. The extracts were evaluated for antibacterial activity using the disc diffusion method, while antioxidant activities were measured using ferric reducing/antioxidant power (FRAP) and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and phytochemical screening was performed using a standard method. Syzygium aromaticum fruit extract exhibited the most activity in the test antioxidants and antibacterial activity when compared with other medicinal plants. Phytochemical analysis revealed that alkaloids, flavonoids, triterpenoids, tannin, and carbohydrates were present in the extracts of Syzygium aromaticum, Mentha piperita, Cinnamomum verum, Pimpinella anisum L. and Zingiber purpurea while saponin and steroids was only present in the Syzygium aromaticum and Zingiber purpurea extracts. The studied medicinal plants have interesting antioxidant properties, antibacterial activity and a phytochemicals composition that could provide scientific evidence for some folk uses in the treatment of diseases and therefore it can provide natural source of antibacterial drugs and antioxidants and can be useful in preventing various diseases including cancer. © 2016, International Journal of Pharmacognosy and Phytochemical Research.

The conservation equations are solved using the finite volume method. The numerical simulations are carried out by standard k-ε turbulence model. Results presented in this paper are for a constant heat flux range of 4000≤q≤16,000W/m2, four nanoparticle volumes (Φ(phonetic)=0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, and 2%), and three expansion ratios (ER=1.25, 1.67, and 2). The Reynolds number is in the range of 20,000≤Re≤50,000. Results reveal that the volume fraction of Al2O3 and Reynolds number significantly affect the surface heat transfer coefficient: an increase in surface heat transfer coefficient was noted when both volume fraction of Al2O3 and Reynolds number were increased for all cases. It is found that the peak of the heat transfer coefficient occurs after the sudden expansion moved far from the step height with the increase of sudden expansion dimensions due to separation flow in case of both pure water and nanofluid. The size of the recirculation zone increases as the Reynolds number and expansion ratio increase. Increasing the nanoparticle of Al2O3/nanofluid tends to enhance the heat transfer coefficient due to nanoparticle heat transport in the base fluid which raises the convection heat transfer. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.Concentric pipe; Heat transfer enhancement; Nanofluid; Separation flow; Sudden expansionAluminum; Cylinders (shapes); Finite volume method; Flow separation; Heat convection; Heat flux; Heat transfer coefficients; Nanofluidics; Nanoparticles; Numerical models; Reynolds number; Rivers; Turbulence models; Volume fraction; Conservation equations; Heat Transfer enhancement; Nanofluids; Separation flow; Simulation of heat transfer; Sudden expansion; Surface heat transfer coefficient; Three dimensional heat transfer; Heat transferUniversiti Malaya, UMThe authors gratefully acknowledge High-Impact Research Grant UM.C/HIR/MOHE/ENG/46 , UMRG RP012D-13AET , and the University of Malaya, Malaysia for support in conducting this research.Hussein, T., Ahmadi, G., Abdulrazzaq, T., Jassim Shkarah, A., Kazi, S.N., Badarudin, A., Thermal performance of nanofluid in ducts with double forward-facing steps (2015) J.

Solar ponds can be an effective way of capturing and storing this energy. A new theoretical model for a heat transfer in a salinity gradient solar pond has been developed. The model is based on the energy balance for each zone of the pond; three separate zones have been considered, namely the upper convective zone, the lower convective zones, as well as the non-convective zone. The upper and lower zones are considered to be well mixed, which means the temperatures in these zones are uniform. The model shows that the temperature in the storage zone can reach more than 90 °C during the summer season whereas it can be more than 50 °C in winter if the pond is located in the Middle East. In addition, the time dependent temperature for the three layers has been found. Furthermore, it is concluded that heat loss from the pond's surface occurs mainly by evaporation, in comparison to convection and radiation. Heat loss to the ground has been calculated by using three different equations. It was found that the perimeter of the pond has a significant effect on heat loss to the ground from a small pond, while its effect is small in the case of large pond. The validity of the model is tested against experimental data for several established ponds; good agreement is observed. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.Solar energy; Solar pond; Solar storageDigital storage; Heat losses; Heat transfer; Solar energy; Solar ponds; Convective zone; Lower convective zones; Nonconvective zone; Renewable energies; Salinity gradient solar ponds; Theoretical modeling; Theoretical modelling; Time-dependent temperature; Lakes; heat transfer; modeling; pond; renewable resource; seasonal variation; solar power; theoretical study; Middle EastAbdelSalam, M., A multipurpose shallow solar pond (MSSP) (1985) Sol.

A small change in dopant arrangement can convert graphene from a semiconducting to a semimetallic state. Based on ab initio Density Functional Theory calculations, we discuss the electron structure of BN-doped graphene with Bravais and non-Bravais lattice-type defect patterns, identifying semiconducting/semimetallic configurations. Semimetallic behavior of graphene with non-Bravais lattice-type defect patterns can be explained by a phase cancellation in the scattering amplitude. Our investigation reveals for the first time that the symmetry of defect islands and the periodicity of defect modulation limit the phase cancellation which controls the semimetal-semiconductor transition in doped graphene.National Science Foundation, NSF: 1053575, 1157058, ACI-1053575, DMR-1157058; Oak Ridge Associated Universities, ORAU; Higher Committee for Education Development in Iraq, HCEDThis work used the Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery Environment (XSEDE), which is supported by National Science Foundation grant number ACI-1053575.

Accurate measurement techniques using conventional Time of Arrival (ToA), Time Difference of Arrival (TDoA), Angle of Arrival (AoA) and Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) can be adopted to enhance localization accuracy. However, with the introduction of MIMO to increase spectral efficiency, the techniques will not be very precise in term of localization error. In this paper, we propose an effective Adaptive Mutation based Artificial Bee Colony Algorithm (AMABC) optimization algorithm to reduce the BER (Bit Error Rate). Moreover, beam forming and equalization of the localization error is also computed for varying the number of nodes. The performance is assessed and compared with a GA algorithm in term of elapsed time and localization error for varying ranging errors up to 30%. The simulation results shown that the AMABC algorithm outperform GA algorithm in all simulation cases. © Research India Publications.5G; ABC; AMABC; Artificial bee colony; Beam forming; MIMO; Mobile terminal; Node localization; WSNLarsson, E.G., Massive MIMO for Next Generation Wireless Systems (2014) IEEE Commun.

However, most pultruded GFRP sections fail prematurely without utilising their high tensile strength due to their thin-walled sections. As a result, several hybrid systems made out of GFRP profiles and concrete as a filler material have been proposed in order to enhance their structural performance. Most of these studies utilised high strength concrete wherein the additional cost does not justify the enhancement in the stiffness and strength of the infilled GFRP profiles. This paper presents an experimental investigation on the effect of the compressive strength of concrete infill on the flexural behaviour of beams with a view to determine a lower cost infill for GFRP profiles. Pultruded GFRP square beams (125 mm x125 mm x 6.5mm) were filled with concrete having 10, 37 and 43.5 MPa compressive strength and tested under static four-point bending. The results showed that the capacity of the filled beam sections increased by 100 to 141% than the hollow sections. However, the compressive strength of the concrete infill has no significant effect on the flexural behaviour of the beams. The increase in concrete compressive strength from 10 to 43.5 MPa increased the ultimate moment by only 19% but exhibited an almost same flexural stiffness indicating that a low strength concrete is a practical solution to fill the GFRP profiles.

However, pretreatment of lignocellulosic materials is essential to facilitate enzymatic hydrolysis and improve sugar yield. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of acid or alkali during microwave-assisted pretreatment of dragon fruit foliage (DFF) that would make hydrolysis process more efficient. In the present study, distilled water and three chemicals were examined for their effects on releasing monomeric sugar during microwave treatment. Microwave-assisted pretreatment namely microwave-distilled water (M-H2O) (control); microwave-sulfuric acid (M-H2SO4); microwave-sodium hydroxide (M-NaOH); and microwave-sodium bicarbonate (M-NaHCO3) pretreatment were performed using 5% (w/v) of DFF as substrate at 800 watt microwave power for 5 minutes exposure time. Highest yield of monomeric sugar was found at 15.56 mg/g using M-NaOH pretreatment at 0.1N NaOH. For M-H2SO4 pretreatment, 0.1N H2SO4 produced 8.2 mg/g of monomeric sugar. Application of M-NaHCO3 pretreatment using 0.05N NaHCO3 solution released 6.45 mg/g of monomeric sugar. While, soaking DFF in distilled water and subjecting to microwave irradiation released 6.6 mg/g of monomeric sugar. Treatments with the lowest concentration (0.01 N) of the three chemicals released only small quantities of total monomeric sugars and less than that with distilled water. The changes in the physical structure of DFF prior to and after the microwaveassisted pretreatment are also reported.Dragon fruit foliage; Microwave pretreatment; Monomeric sugar; Morphological changesAzuma, J., Tanaka, F., Koshijima, T., Enhancement of enzymatic susceptibility of lignocellulosic wastes by microwave irradiation (1984) Journal of Fermentation Technology, 62 (4), pp. 377-384; Balat, M., Balat, H., Oz, C., Progress in bioethanol processing (2008) Progress in Energy and Combustion Science, 34 (5), pp. 551-573; Balat, M., Balat, H., Recent trends in global production and utilization of bio-ethanol fuel (2009) Applied Energy, 86 (11), pp. 2273-2282; Binod, P., Satyanagalakshmi, K., Sindhu, R., Janu, K.U., Sukumaran, R.K., Pandey, A., Short duration microwave assisted pretreatment enhances the enzymatic saccharification and fermentable sugar yield from sugarcane bagasse (2012) Renewable Energy, 37 (1), pp. 109-116; Boonsombuti, A., Luengnaruemitchai, A., Wongkasemjit, S., Enhancement of enzymatic hydrolysis of corncob by microwave-assisted alkali pretreatment and its effect in morphology (2013) Cellulose, 20 (4), pp. 1957-1966; Caddick, S., Microwave assisted organic reactions (1995) Tetrahedron, 51 (38), pp. 10403-10432; Chang, V.S., Holtzapple, M.T., Fundamental factors affecting biomass enzymatic reactivity (2000) Twenty-First Symposium on Biotechnology for Fuels and Chemicals, pp. 5-37. , Fort Collins, Colorado: Springer Science and Business Media; Chen, W., Ye, S., Sheen, H., Hydrolysis characteristics of sugarcane bagasse pretreated by dilute acid solution in a microwave irradiation environment (2012) Applied Energy, 93, pp. 237-244; Ethaib, S., Omar, R., Kamal, S.M.M., Biak, D.R.A., Microwave-assisted pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass-a review (2015) Journal of Engineering Science and Technology, 1, pp. 97-109; Ethaib, S., Omar, R., Mazlina, M.K.S., Radiah, A.B.D., Syafiie, S., Microwave-assisted Dilute Acid Pretreatment and Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Sago Palm Bark (2016) BioResources, 11 (3), pp. 5687-5702; Fan, L.T., Gharpuray, M.M., Lee, Y.H., (1987) Cellulose hydrolysis.

Specimen was prepared by the hot vibration dispersion technique to make a PMNC. Hardness, tensile strength, ultimate tensile strength, young modulus, and impact at room temperature were tested. It has been found that enhancement in these properties starts at extra low weight percent (1wt%) nTiO2. The maximum effect of nano TiO2 addition was on tensile strength, and the lowest was on young modulus. © 2016 Sabah Mohammed Mlkat Al-Mutoki, Baydaa Abdul-Hassan Khalaf Al-Ghzawi, Emad Abbas Jaffar Al-Mulla and Samer AbdulAmohsin.Hot vibration dispersion; Nanofiller; PMNCsfiller; glycol; polyamide; titanium dioxide nanoparticle; addition reaction; Article; dispersion; hardness; room temperature; tensile strength; vibration; weight; Young moduluspolyamide, 63428-83-1Yunus, W.M.Z., Ibrahim, N.A.B., Rahman, M.Z.A., Epoxidized palm oil plasticized polylactic acid/fatty nitrogen compound modified clay nanocomposites: preparation and characterization (2010) Polym.

Watson, D., Strathclyde Institute of Pharmacy and Biomedical Sciences, University of Strathclyde, The John Arbuthnott Building, 161 Cathedral Street, Glasgow, G4 0RE, United KingdomTen physically active subjects underwent two cycling exercise trials. In the first, aerobic capacity (VO2max) was determined and the second was a 45 min submaximal exercise test. Urine samples were collected separately the day before (day 1), the day of (day 2), and the day after (day 3) the submaximal exercise test (12 samples per subject). Metabolomic profiling of the samples was carried out using hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) coupled to an Orbitrap Exactive mass spectrometer. Data were extracted, database searched and then subjected to principle components (PCA) and orthogonal partial least squares (OPLSDA) modelling. The best results were obtained from pre-treating the data by normalising the metabolites to their mean output on days 1 and 2 of the trial. This allowed PCA to separate the day 2 first void samples (D2S1) from the day 2 post-exercise samples (D2S3) PCA also separated the equivalent samples obtained on day 1 (D1S1 and D1S3). OPLSDA modelling separated both the D2S1 and D2S3 samples and D1S1 and D1S3 samples. The metabolites affected by the exercise samples included a range of purine metabolites and several acyl carnitines. Some metabolites were subject to diurnal variation these included bile acids and several amino acids, the variation of these metabolites was similar on day 1 and day 2 despite the exercise intervention on day 2. Using OPLS modelling it proved possible to identify a single abundant urinary metabolite provisionally identified as oxo-aminohexanoic acid (OHA) as being strongly correlated with VO2max when the levels in the D2S3 samples were considered. © 2016 by the authors;.Acylcarnitines; Exercise metabolomics; High resolution mass spectrometry; Purines; VO2maxamino acid; aminocaproic acid; bile acid; fatty acid derivative; neurotransmitter; steroid; sucrose; adult; aerobic capacity; Article; circadian rhythm; collagen metabolism; exercise; experimental design; female; follow up; human; hydrophilic interaction chromatography; lung gas exchange; male; mass spectrometry; metabolomics; normal human; physical activity; pilot study; purine metabolism; urinalysisamino acid, 65072-01-7; aminocaproic acid, 1319-82-0, 60-32-2; sucrose, 122880-25-5, 57-50-1Sarris, J., O’Neil, A., Coulson, C.E., Schweitzer, I., Berk, M., Lifestyle Medicine for Depression (2014) BMC Psychiatry, 14, 107p. , [CrossRef] [PubMed]; (2009) Unhealthy Diets & Physical Inactivity; World Health Organization, pp. 1-2. , World Health Organization, Geneva, Switzerland; (2016) Deaths from Cardiovascular Diseases and Diabetes, , http://www.who.int/mediacentre/factsheets/fs317/en/, World Health Organization; Allender, S., Foster, C., Scarborough, P., Rayner, M., The Burden of Physical Activity-Related Ill Health in the UK (2007) J.

It is assumed that the prey is a stage structure population consisting of two compartments known as immature prey and mature prey. It has a refuge capability as a defensive property against the predation. The existence, uniqueness, and boundedness of the solution of the proposed model are discussed. All the feasible equilibrium points are determined. The local and global stability analysis of them are investigated. The occurrence of local bifurcation (such as saddle node, transcritical, and pitchfork) near each of the equilibrium points is studied. Finally, numerical simulations are given to support the analytic results. © 2016 Raid Kamel Naji and Salam Jasim Majeed.Freedman, H.I., (1980) Deterministic Mathematical Models in Population Ecology, 57. , MarcelDekker, New York, NY, USA; Murray, J.D., (2002) Mathematical Biology, , Springer, Berlin, Germany, 3rd edition; Dubey, B., Upadhyay, R.K., Persistence and extinction of one-prey and two-predator system (2004) Nonlinear Analysis: Modelling and Control, 9 (4), pp. 307-329; Gakkhar, S., Singh, B., Naji, R.K., Dynamical behavior of two predators competing over a single prey (2007) BioSystems, 90 (3), pp. 808-817; Kar, T.K., Batabyal, A., Persistence and stabilityof a twoprey one predator (2010) International Journal of Engineering, Science and Technology, 2 (2), pp. 174-190; Samanta, G.P., Analysis of a delay nonautonomous predatorprey system with disease in the prey (2010) Nonlinear Analysis: Modelling and Control, 15 (1), pp. 97-108; Wang, W., Chen, L., A predator-prey system with stagestructure for predator (1997) Computers AndMathematics with Applications, 33 (8), pp. 83-91; Bernard, O., Souissi, S., Qualitative behavior of stagestructured populations: Application to structural validation (1998) Journal OfMathematical Biology, 37 (4), pp. 291-308; Zhang, X., Chen, L., Neumann, A.U., The stage-structured predator-prey model and optimal harvesting policy (2000) Mathematical Biosciences, 168 (2), pp. 201-210; Cui, J., Chen, L., Wang, W., The effect of dispersalonpopulation growth with stage-structure (2000) Computers and Mathematics with Applications, 39 (1-2), pp. 91-102; Cui, J., Takeuchi, Y., A predator-prey system with a stage structure for the prey (2006) Mathematical and Computer Modelling, 44 (11-12), pp. 1126-1132; Liu, S., Beretta, E., A stage-structured predator-prey model of Beddington-DeAngelis type (2006) SIAMJournal OnAppliedMathematics, 66 (4), pp. 1101-1129; Xu, S., Dynamics of a general prey-predator model with preystage structure and diffusive effects (2014) Computers AndMathematics with Applications, 68 (3), pp. 405-423; González-Olivares, E., Ramos-Jiliberto, R., Dynamic consequences of prey refuges in a simple model system: More prey, fewer predators and enhanced stability (2003) Ecological Modelling, 166 (1-2), pp. 135-146; Kar, T.K., Stability analysis of a prey-predator model incorporating a prey refuge (2005) Communications in Nonlinear Science and Numerical Simulation, 10 (6), pp. 681-691; Huang, Y., Chen, F., Zhong, L., Stability analysis of a preypredator model with Holling type III response function incorporating a prey refuge (2006) AppliedMathematics and Computation, 182 (1), pp. 672-683; Ma, Z., Li, W., Zhao, Y., Wang, W., Zhang, H., Li, Z., Effects of prey refuges on a predator-preymodel with a class of functional responses: The role of refuges (2009) Mathematical Biosciences, 218 (2), pp. 73-79; Krivan, V., On the Gause predator-prey model with a refuge: A fresh look at the history (2011) Journal OfTheoretical Biology, 274 (1), pp. 67-73; Wang, S., Ma, Z., Analysis of an ecoepidemiological model with prey refuges (2012) Journal of Applied Mathematics, 2012, 16p; Pal, A.K., Samanta, G.P., A ratio-dependent ecoepidemiological model incorporating a prey refuge (2013) Universal Journal of Applied Mathematics, 1 (2), pp. 86-100; De Rossi, A., Ferrua, I., Perracchione, E., Ruatta, G., Venturino, E., Competitionmodels with niche for squirrel population dynamics (2013) Proceedings of the 11th International Conference of Numerical Analysis and Applied Mathematics( ICNAAM '13) Vol. 1558 of AIP Conference Proceedings, pp. 1818-1821. , Rhodes, Greece, September; Haque, M., Rahman, M.S., Venturino, E., Li, B.-L., Effect of a functional response-dependent prey refuge in a predator-prey model (2014) Ecological Complexity, 20, pp. 248-256; Cavoretto, R., De Rossi, A., Perracchione, E., Venturino, E., Reliable approximation of separatrix manifolds in competition models with safety niches (2015) International Journal of Computer Mathematics, 92 (9), pp. 1826-1837; Perko, L., (2001) Differential Equations and Dynamical Systems, 7. , Springer, NewYork, NY, USA, 3rd editionMajeed, S.J.; Department of Mathematics, Iraq; email: sm.salammajeed@yahoo.comHindawi Limited16879643EnglishInter.

The current finite element analysis has predicted the concrete temperatures effectively with temperature errors ranged between 0.1°C and 1.7°C. The proposed finite element model was then used to evaluate the distribution of temperature in deep concrete box-girders considering the weather conditions of Gaziantep, Turkey. The weather data including solar radiation, air temperature and wind speed for a hot summer day were recorded from a specially installed weather station in the campus of the University of Gaziantep. The results showed that the AASHTO's gradient model was almost identical with the predicted temperature gradients at the top and the bottom surfaces and along the clear depth of the webs. However, the behavior along the top 1 m was different. © IAEME Publication.Air temperature; Deep box-girder; Solar radiation and temperature gradientWhite, I.G., Nonlinear temperature differential distributions in concrete bridge sructures: A review of the current literature (1979) Technical Report 525, , Cement and Concrete Association, USA; Zichner, T., (1981) Thermal Effects on Concrete Bridges, CEB Enlarged Meeting- Commission 2-Piva, pp. 292-313; Elbadry, M., Ghali, A., Thermal stresses and cracking of concrete bridges (1986) ACI Journal, 83 (6), pp. 1001-1009; Massicotte, B., Picard, A., Gaumond, Y., Ouellet, C., Strengthening of long span prestressed segmental box girder bridge (1994) PCI Journal, 39 (3), pp. 52-65; Lee, J.-H., Behavior of precast prestressed poncrete bridge girders involving thermal effects and initial imperfections during construction (2012) Engineering Structures, 42, pp. 1-8; Zhou, G.D., Yi, T.H., Thermal loads in large-scale bridges: A state-of-The-Art review (2013) International Journal of Distributed Sensor Networks, 2013, pp. 1-17; Priestly, M.J.N., (1976) Design Thermal Gradients for Concrete Bridges, 31 (9), pp. 213-219. , New Zealand Engineering; Emerson, M., Bridge temperatures for setting bearing and expansion joints (1979) TRRL Supplementary Report 479, Transport and Road Research Laboratory, , Berkshire, UK; Imbsen, R.A., Vandershaf, D.E., Schamber, R.A., Nutt, R.V., (1985) Thermal Effects in Concrete Bridge Superstructures, , National Cooperative Highway Research Program Report 276, Transportation Research Board, Washington, DC, USA; (2012) AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specifications, , AASHTO., American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials, Washington DC, USA; Ghali, A., Favre, R., Elbadry, M., (2002) Concrete Structures: Stresses and Deformation, , Spon Press: London, UK; (2012) Heat Transfer Module User's Guide, , COMSOL Multiphysics v 4.3a., Stockholm, Sweden; Sveinson, T.N., (2004) Temperature Effects in Concrete Box Girder Bridges, , PhD Thesis, University of Calgary, Canada; Taysi, N., Abid, S.R., Temperature distributions and variations in concrete box-girder bridges: Experimental and finite element parametric studies (2015) Advances in Structural Engineering, 18 (4), pp. 469-486; Abid, S.R., Taysi, N., Özakça, M., Three-dimensional thermal modeling of temperature variation in concrete box-girders using COMSOL (2014) Proceedings of the 2014 COMSOL Conference in Cambridge, , Cambridge, UK; Abid, S.R., Alhatmey, I., Taysi, N., Özakça, M., Finite e lement ana lys is of temperature distributions in precast concrete girders subjected to thermal loads (2014) Proceedings of the 11th International Congress on Advances in Civil Engineering ACE, , Istanbul, Turkey; Abid, S.R., Taysi, N., Özakça, M., Experimental analysis of temperature gradients in concrete box girders (2016) Construction and Building Materials, 106, pp. 523-532IAEME Publication09766308EnglishInt.J.

The aim of this study was to investigate the antioxidant and antibacterial capacities of Myrtus communis leaf and stem. Methanol extracts of Myrtus communis leaf and stem were assessed for its antimicrobial activity. The antibacterial activity was determined using paper disc method against two bacteria namely Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus cereus. The sensitivity in terms of zones of inhibition of both extract was determined. Gentamicin was used as a standard drug for the study of antibacterial activity. The antioxidant activity was determined by measuring total phenolic content (TPC), ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP), 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH). The result showed that the methanol extracts of Myrtus leaf and stem were effective against both the bacteria tested. The leaf extract of Myrtus exhibited a higher antibacterial activity than the stem extract of Myrtus. The acetone extract of Myrtus leaf showed the largest antioxidant TPC, FRAP and DPPH compared with stem extract. A marked antimicrobial and antioxidant activity of Myrtus communis leaf and stem extracts was observed which may be attributed to the presence of phenolic compounds and other phytochemicals. The plants can be used to control infectious diseases and prevent oxidative damage. © 2016, Sphinx Knowledge House.

Such investigation mainly focuses on the expected properties of the doped polymers with different doping ratios of crystal violet (0.01, 0.03, 0.05, 0.07, 0.1) %wt. This is indicated by the electron transfer between the dopants and both polymers, which clearly shows the appearance of oxidation - reduction peaks accompanied log increase in electrical current Ip as applied potential changes. The heights of Ip oscillate due to the change in scan rate, n. The results of linear of relationships between Ip with n1/2 indicated that the electron transfer was a process of one electron transfer.Crystal violet; Cyclic voltammetry; Poly Furfuryl alcohol; Supporting electrolyteBouya, H., Solghi, R., Bazzi, L.H., Zarrouk, A., Al-Deyab, S.S., Bazzi, L., Chakir, A., Hammouti, B., (2012) Int.

In this work, a microwave-diluted sulfuric acid pretreatment was applied prior to enzymatic hydrolysis of sago palm bark (SPB). Characterization of the solid fraction was completed before and after the pretreatment process. Analysis of SPB ash showed a presence of 6.8% silica. There was a 32% reduction in lignin content, an increased crystallinity from 29% to 47%, and clear damage and fragmentation to the surface structure of SPB after the pretreatment. Inhibitors were not detectable in the liquor after the microwave-acid pretreatment. The enzymatic hydrolysis of SPB was employed by adding 6 to 42 FPU/g of cellulase and 50 U/g of β-glucosidase to identify the optimal cellulase loading at fixed β-glucosidase loading. The maximum total monomeric sugar yield and total reducing sugar (using DNS method) at 77 mg/g and 378 mg/g were achieved using 24 FPU/g of cellulose, respectively. Thus, this enzyme loading can be recommended for further microwave-acid pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis of SPB.Cellulase; Enzymatic hydrolysis; Enzyme loading; Microwave pretreatment; Microwave pretreatment; Sago palm bark; YieldCost effectiveness; Dyes; Enzymatic hydrolysis; Enzymes; Hydrolysis; Microwaves; Starch; Cellulase; Enzyme loading; Microwave pretreatment; Sago palm bark; Yield; LoadingUniversiti Putra MalaysiaThe authors are grateful for the support of the University Putra Malaysia and the University of Thiqar for their financial support.Adney, B., Baker, J., Measurement of cellulase activities (1996) Laboratory Analytical Procedure, , National Renewable Energy Laboratory, Golden, CO; Alvira, P., Tomás-Pejó, E., Ballesteros, M., Negro, M., Pretreatment technologies for an efficient bioethanol production process based on enzymatic hydrolysis: A review (2010) Bioresource Technology, 101 (13), pp. 4851-4861; Azuma, J., Tanaka, F., Koshijima, T., Enhancement of enzymatic susceptibility of lignocellulosic wastes by microwave irradiation (1984) Journal of Fermentation Technology, 62 (4), pp. 377-384; Balat, M., Balat, H., Öz, C., Progress in bioethanol processing (2008) Progress in Energy and Combustion Science, 34 (5), pp. 551-573; Boonsombuti, A., Luengnaruemitchai, A., Wongkasemjit, S., Enhancement of enzymatic hydrolysis of corncob by microwave-assisted alkali pretreatment and its effect in morphology (2013) Cellulose, 20 (4), pp. 1957-1966; Chang, V.S., Holtzapple, M.T., 'Fundamental factors affecting biomass enzymatic reactivity (2000) Twenty-First Symposium on Biotechnology for Fuels and Chemicals, pp. 5-37; Chen, W., Ye, S., Sheen, H., 'Hydrolysis characteristics of sugarcane bagasse pretreated by dilute acid solution in a microwave irradiation environment (2012) Applied Energy, 93, pp. 237-244; Chen, W.-H., Tu, Y.-J., Sheen, H.-K., Impact of dilute acid pretreatment on the structure of bagasse for bioethanol production (2010) International Journal of Energy Research, 34 (3), pp. 265-274; Chen, Y., Dong, B., Qin, W., Xiao, D., Xylose and cellulose fractionation from corncob with three different strategies and separate fermentation of them to bioethanol (2010) Bioresource Technology, 101 (18), pp. 6994-6999; Cui, L., Liu, Z., Si, C., Hui, L., Kang, N., Zhao, T., Influence of steam explosion pretreatment on the composition and structure of wheat straw (2012) BioResources, 7 (3), pp. 4202-4213; Fatriasari, W., Syafii, W., Wistara, N., Syamsu, K., Prasetya, B., Lignin and cellulose changes of betung bamboo (Dendrocalamus asper) pretreated microwave heating (2016) International Journal on Advanced Science, Engineering and Information Technology, 6 (2), pp. 186-195; Feng, L., Qin, L., Liu, Z.H., Dong, C.Y., Li, B.Z., Yuan, Y.J., Combined severity during pretreatment chemical and temperature on the saccharification of wheat straw using acids and alkalis of differing strength (2013) BioResources, 9 (1), pp. 24-38; Gámez, S., González-Cabriales, J.J., Ramírez, J.A., Garrote, G., Vázquez, M., Study of the hydrolysis of sugar cane bagasse using phosphoric acid (2006) Journal of Food Engineering, 74 (1), pp. 78-88; Hendriks, A.T.W.M., Zeeman, G., Pretreatments to enhance the digestibility of lignocellulosic biomass (2009) Bioresource Technology, 100 (1), pp. 10-18; Hu, H.Y., Chen, Y.M., Zhang, Y.J., A comparative analysis of crystal structure changes in mechanically activated natural cellulose and cellulose laurate produced by mechanical activation-strengthened solid phase synthesis (2013) J.

The experimental investigations were performed in the Reynolds number range from 5000 to 30000, the heat flux varied from 1000 to 4000 W/m2, and the expansion ratio was maintained at D/d=1, 1.25, 1.67 and 2. The sudden expansion was created by changing the inner diameter of the entrance pipe to an annular passage. The outer diameter of the inner pipe and the inner diameter of the outer pipe are 2.5 and 10 cm, respectively, where both of the pipes are subjected to uniform heat flux. The distribution of the surface temperature of the test pipe and the local Nusselt number are presented in this investigation. Due to sudden expansion in the cross section of the annular pipe, a separation flow was created, which enhanced the heat transfer. The reduction of the surface temperature on the outer and inner pipes increased with the increase of the expansion ratio and the Reynolds number, and increased with the decrease of the heat flux to the annular pipe. The peak of the local Nusselt number was between 1.64 and 1.7 of the outer and inner pipes for Reynolds numbers varied from 5000 to 30000, and the increase of the local Nusselt number represented the augmentation of the heat transfer rate in the sudden expansion of the annular pipe. This research also showed a maximum heat transfer enhancement of 63-78% for the outer and inner pipes at an expansion ratio of D/d=2 at a Re=30000 and a heat flux of 4000W/m2.Annular passage; Separation flow;

(Strain RL1) isolated from mountain soil was examined. This study aims to determine the effect of different carbohydrates and their concentrations {Wheat bran, Corn cob, Corn stem, Pineapple and CMC at range 0.5- 2.5 % (w/v)} as carbon sources for production of endoglucanase. Results showed that pineapple gave the highest activity 2.6993 U/ml, while the lowest activity with CMC 0.1367 U/ml. In the present investigation the endoglucanase activity was supported by 200rpm agitation rate with Corn cob and Corn stem, while 0rpm (static) revealed the best condition for endoglucanase activity using Pineapple and CMC as a sole carbon source. Within the five substrate concentrate the enzyme activity was more in 2.5 % concentration.

Looking at safety from a different standpoint, the authors are working on an ongoing study regarding a concept which they call "Degrees of Connectivity" (DoC). To conduct the study, the researchers applied a mixed-methods approach to improve confidence in the research results that includes: industry surveys, an analysis of OSHA records, and process and behavioral observations on construction sites. Multiple survey questionnaires were distributed to project managers, engineers, workers, and foremen. Survey questions were divided into three groups: demographic, safety, and degrees of connectivity. The collected results at this stage of the research show that there is an impact of one worker on other workers regarding safety achievement. Moreover, the results reveal connectivities between workers and the design elements within the project being constructed. A scheme to represent the DoC concept has been established based on the study results and the identified interactions between workers and design elements. The DoC concept contributes to current practice by providing designers and constructors with a framework to assess the impact of the design on construction personnel before construction commences. © ASCE.Accidents; Design; Human resource management; Surveys; Accident causation; Behavioral observation; Construction personnel; Construction sites; Construction workers; Current practices; Industry surveys; Project managers; Occupational risksChi, S., Han, S., Kim, D.Y., Relationship between unsafe working conditions and workers' behavior and impact of working conditions on injury severity in u.

Building information modelling (BIM) and 3D laser scanning are two examples of rapidly evolving technologies that can help achieve this purpose. Researchers are conducting an ongoing study to: (1) determine the general knowledge state for these technologies among construction project management personnel; (2) determine the benefits and shortcomings of these technologies; (3) explore barriers to and enablers of these technologies and compare the barriers and enablers with those found in earlier studies; and (4) identify awareness and demand statuses of using these technologies. The study utilizes a survey questionnaire distributed among project management personnel. The research results show that there is generally a high level of knowledge about BIM among construction management personnel; however, this is not the case with 3D laser scanning. BIM and 3D laser scanning help in resolving issues on construction jobsites and there is increased demand for using BIM in the industry; however, amongst the owners surveyed, there is not as much demand for using 3D laser scanning. A lack of experts and high cost are the most cited reasons for not using these technologies on a wide range of projects. The findings contribute to the knowledge in this research area by providing additional information about the current practice related to BIM and 3D laser scanning technologies along with evidence of the current barriers to further diffusion of the technologies throughout the industry. © ASCE.Architectural design; Construction industry; Human resource management; Laser applications; Life cycle; Scanning; Surface analysis; Surveys; 3D Laser scanning; 3D-laserscanning technology; Building Information Modelling; Construction management; Construction project management; Current practices; General knowledge; Research results; Project managementCollins, R., Zhang, S., Kim, K., Teizer, J., Integration of safety risk factors in BIM for scaffolding construction (2014) Computing in Civil and Building Engineering, ASCE, pp. 307-314; Dossick, C.S., Lee, N., Foleyk, S., Building information modeling in graduate construction engineering and management education (2014) Computing in Civil and Building Engineering, ASCE, pp. 2176-2183; Eastman, C.H., (1999) Building Product Models: Computer Environments, Supporting Design and Construction, , 1st Ed.

Inhomogeneity in the QD system is included which is not included in earlier studies of Kerr nonlinearity in QDs. Possibilities of subluminal and superluminal light propagation and switching between them are examined. Double tunnelling is shown to obtain giant Kerr dispersion compared with single tunnelling. High conduction- and low valence-band tunnelling components are required to obtain high Kerr dispersion. Working with one tunnel component reduced Kerr dispersion and switching between subluminal and superluminal can be obtained and the EIT window can be removed. © 2016 .Kerr dispersion; Quantum dot; TunnellingSchmidt, H., Imamoglu, A., Giant Kerr nonlinearities obtained by electromagnetically induced transparency (1996) Optics Lett, 21, pp. 1936-1938; Asadpour, S.H., Sahrai, M., Bonabi, R.S., Soltani, A., Mahrami, H., Enhancement of Kerr nonlinearity at long wavelength in a quantum dot nanostructure (2011) Physica E, 43, pp. 1759-1762; Kang, H., Zhu, Y., Observation of large Kerr nonlinearity at low light intensities (2003) Phys Rev Lett, 91, p. 093601; Jiang, Y.W., Zhu, K.D., Controlling Kerr nonlinearity with electric fields in asymmetric double quantum-dots (2008) Cond-Mat.Mes-Hall, , arXiv:0801.3726v1; Li, J., Yu, R., Liu, J., Huanga, P., Yang, X., Voltage-controlled optical bistability of a tunable three-level system in a quantum-dot molecule (2008) Physica E, 41, pp. 70-73; Sahrai, M., Reza Mehmannavaz, M., Sattari, H., Optically controllable switch for light propagation based on triple coupled quantum dots (2014) Appl Opt, 53, pp. 2375-2383; Chang-Hasnain, C.J., Ku, P.C., Kim, J., Chuang, S.-L., Variable Optical Buffer Using Slow Light in Semiconductor Nanostructures (2003) Proceedings of IEEE, 91, pp. 1884-1897; Mahmoudi, M., Sahrai, M., Absorption-free super luminal light propagation in a quantum-dotmolecule (2009) Physica E, 41, pp. 1772-1778; Villas-Boas, J.M., Govorov, A.O., Ulloa, S.E., Coherent control of tunnelling in a quantum dot molecule (2004) Phys Rev B, 6, p. 125342; She, Y., Zheng, X., Wang, D., Zhang, W., Controllable double tunnelling induced transparency and solitons formation in a quantum dot molecule (2013) Opt.

We then apply these operators in order to represent and investigate some new families of q-polynomials which are defined in this paper. We derive some q-identities such as generating functions, symmetry properties and Rogers-type formulas for these q-polynomials.

A strong correlation between the two annealing processes was observed, leading to a profound effect on the performance of CdS/CdTe thin film solar cells. Atomic force microscopy and Raman spectroscopy show that the iTAP in the optimal processing window produces considerable CdTe grain growth and improves the CdTe crystallinity, which results in significantly improved optoelectronic properties and quantum efficiency of the CdS/CdTe solar cells. A power conversion efficiency of up to 7.0% has been obtained on thin film CdS/CdTe solar cells of absorber thickness as small as 0.75 μm processed with the optimal iTAP at 450°C for 10-20 min. This result illustrates the importance of controlling microstructures of CdTe thin films and iTAP provides a viable approach to achieve such a control. © 2016 Alaa Ayad Al-mebir et al.National Science Foundation, NSF: 1105986, 1337737Razykov, T.M., Ferekides, C.S., Morel, D., Stefanakos, E., Ullal, H.S., Upadhyaya, H.M., Solar photovoltaic electricity: Current status and future prospects (2011) Solar Energy, 85 (8), pp. 1580-1608;

The objective of this study was to formulate papaya leather from locally grown papaya using natural ingredients like pectin, honey and citric acid. The fresh fruits were pureed and mix with natural ingredients, and dried in an oven at 60°C for 12 hours. The physicochemical properties and antioxidant activity were determined. The results showed that fruit leather made from Hongkong cultivar is significantly (P<0.05) higher in sensory parameters as well as physicochemical properties and antioxidant activity. The phenolics content and antioxidant activity increased by process of drying the fruit leather compared to fresh fruits in both papaya cultivars. Therefore, the consumer requirements for healthy and safe food products were respected.Antioxidant activity; Fruit leather; Phenolic content; Sensory evaluationAbu Bakar, M.F., Mohamed, M., Rahmat, A., Fry, J., Phytochemicals and antioxidant activity of different parts of bambangan mangifera pajang and tarap artocarpus odoratissimus (2009) Food Chemistry, 113 (2), pp. 479-483; Ames, B.N., Shigenaga, M.K., Hagen, T.M., Oxidants, antioxidants, and the degenerative diseases of aging (1993) Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 90 (17), pp. 7915-7922; Aminah, A., (2004) Prinsip Penilaian Sensori, , Bang.

Using this system, the thickness of the CdTe absorber layer is varied across a single sample from 1.5 μm to 0.75 μm. The effects of thickness on CdTe grain morphology, crystal orientation, and cell efficiency were investigated with respect to different postprocessing conditions. It is shown that the thinner CdTe layer of 0.75 μm obtained the best power conversion efficiency up to 5.3%. The results of this work shows the importance that CdTe grain size/morphology relative to CdTe thickness has on device performance and quantitatively exhibits what those values should be to obtain efficient thin-film CdTe/CdS solar cells fabricated with pulsed laser deposition. Further development of this combinatorial approach could enable high-throughput exploration and optimization of CdTe/CdS solar cells. © 2016 Ali Kadhim et al.Cadmium telluride; Crystal orientation; Deposition; Efficiency; Film thickness; Pulsed laser deposition; Pulsed lasers; Solar cells; Thin film solar cells; Thin films; CdTe/CdS thin films; Combinatorial approach; Device optimization; Device performance; Effects of thickness; Post-processing condition; Power conversion efficiencies; Processing condition; Cadmium sulfide solar cellsNational Science Foundation, NSF: 1105986, 1337737Gloeckler, M., Sankin, I., Zhao, Z., CdTe solar cells at the threshold to 20% efficiency (2013) IEEE Journal of Photovoltaics, 3 (4), pp. 1389-1393; Cruz-Campa, J.L., Zubia, D., CdTe thin film growth model under CSS conditions (2009) Solar Energy Materials and Solar Cells, 93 (1), pp. 15-18; McCandless, B., Sites, J., Cadmium telluride solar cells (2003) Handbook of Photovoltaic Science and Engineering, , chapter 14, JohnWiley and Sons, Hoboken, NJ, USA; Wu, X., High-efficiency polycrystalline CdTe thin-film solar cells (2004) Solar Energy, 77 (6), pp. 803-814; Green, M.A., Emery, K., Hishikawa, Y., Solar cell efficiency tables (version 44) (2014) Progress in Photovoltaics, 22 (7), pp. 701-710; Craciun, V., Craciun, D., Mihailescu, I.N., Combinatorial pulsed laser deposition of thin films (2008) High-Power Laser Ablation VII, Vol. 7005 of Proceedings of SPIE, , May; Meeth, J., Harrison, P., Liu, J., Pulsed laser deposition of thin film CdTe/CdS solar cells with CdS/ZnS superlattice windows (2013) Proceedings of the 39th IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC 13), pp. 1996-1999. , Tampa, Fla, USA, June; Harrison, P., Meeth, J., Liu, J., Lu, R., Feng, L., Wu, J., The effects of fabrication pressure on the physical properties of CdS/CdTe thin film solar cells made via pulsed laser deposition (2013) Proceedings of the IEEE 39th Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC 13), pp. 2590-2593. , Tampa, Fla, USA, June; Krebs, H.-U., Weisheit, M., Faupel, J., Pulsed laser deposition (PLD) -A versatile thin film technique (2003) Advances in Solid State Physics, pp. 505-518. , B.

This is not surprising given the significant challenges in aerosolising stem cells, particularly given their susceptibility to damage under the large stresses involved in the nebulisation process. Here, we present promising results using a microfluidic acoustic nebulisation platform that is not only low cost and portable, but also its high MHz order frequencies are effective for preserving the structural and functional integrity of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) during the nebulisation process. This is verified through an assessment of the viability, structure, metabolic activity, proliferation ability and genetic makeup of the nebulised MSCs using a variety of assays, including cell viability staining, flow cytometry, reverse transcription and quantitative polymerase chain reaction, and immunophenotyping, thus demonstrating the platform as a promising method for efficient pulmonary stem cell delivery. © 2016 The Royal Society of Chemistry.airway; animal cell; Article; cell damage; cell metabolism; cell proliferation; cell stress; cell structure; cell viability; controlled study; flow cytometry; immunophenotyping; inhalation; mesenchymal stem cell; microfluidics; nebulization; nonhuman; polymerase chain reaction; priority journal; quantitative analysis; rat; reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction; stem cell transplantation; acoustics; administration and dosage; aerosol; animal; cell culture; cell culture technique; cell survival; cytology; device failure analysis; devices; equipment design; evaluation study; inhalational drug administration; lab on a chip; mesenchymal stem cell transplantation; mesenchymal stroma cell; microelectromechanical system; nebulizer; physiology; Sprague Dawley rat; aerosol; Acoustics; Administration, Inhalation; Aerosols; Animals; Cell Culture Techniques; Cell Proliferation; Cell Survival; Cells, Cultured; Equipment Design; Equipment Failure Analysis; Lab-On-A-Chip Devices; Mesenchymal Stem Cell Transplantation; Mesenchymal Stromal Cells; Micro-Electrical-Mechanical Systems; Nebulizers and Vaporizers; Rats; Rats, Sprague-DawleyAerosolsLau, A.N., Goodwin, M., Kim, C.F., Weiss, D.J., (2012) Mol.

Nonlinear optical processes results in SONS are discussed, they are: second-harmonic generation (SHG), sum-frequency generation (SFG), difference frequency generation (DFG) and optical rectification (OR). Two types of structures are used the first structure uses the interband transitions in QDs while the second structure uses valence intersubband transitions. SONS relations for SHG, SFG, DFG and OR are derived. A high SONS for the first structure is obtained at long wavelength while a millimeter wavelength is obtained from the second structure which is important in optical communication applications. © 2015, Springer Science+Business Media New York.Difference frequency generation; Millimeter waves; Optical rectification; Quantum dot; Second-order nonlinear susceptibility; Sum frequency generationElectric fields; Harmonic generation; Interferometry; Millimeter waves; Nanocrystals; Nonlinear optics; Optical communication; Optical frequency conversion; Semiconductor quantum wells; Communication application; Difference-frequency generation; Nonlinear optical process; Optical rectifications; Second-order nonlinear susceptibility; Self assembled quantum dots; Sum frequency generation; Valence intersubband transition; Semiconductor quantum dotsAhn, D., Park, S.-H., (2011) Engineering quantum mechanics, , Wiley, New Jersey; Al-Husaini, H., Al-Khursan, A.H., Al-Dabagh, S.Y., III-N QD lasers (2009) Open Nanosci.

To improve the scalability of the network the hierarchical approach of the network is used because usage of centralized schemes is very resource-intensive. Due to disagreement of solutions obtained on routers and thus appearance of the link overloading and the subsequent package lost we proposed to use the goal coordination method. The usage of this method allows distributing flows through links without its overloading and improving quality of service and increasing the efficiency of network management. © 2015 Kharkiv National University of Radioelectronics.flow-based model; multicast; multicast tree; routing; the goal coordination methodMulticasting; Network management; Quality of service; Routing algorithms; Coordination methods; Flow-based models; Hierarchical approach; Multicast routing; Multicast tree; routing; Network routingLao L, S., Cui, J.-H., Gerla, M., Maggiorini, D., A Comparative Study of Multicast Protocols: Top, Bottom, or in the Middle?

Suppose the ith population is selected if where denotes the mean of a random sample of size ni from the population associated with θi. In this paper, we estimate the parameter of the selected population. It is shown that neither unbiased nor risk-unbiased estimators exist. When additional observations from the selected population are available, we obtain an unbiased, risk-unbiased, and the two-stage UMVCU estimators. The bias and the risk of the obtained estimators are compared through simulation. © 2015 © Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.Binomial proportion; Binomial proportion; Estimation following selection; Estimation following selection; Risk-unbiased estimators; Risk-unbiased estimatorsBins; Binomial proportion; Random sample; Unbiased estimator; Risk perceptionAl-Mosawi, R., Vellaisamy, P., Shanubhogue, A., Risk-Unbiased estimation of the selected subset of Poisson populations (2011) J.

In the theoretical treatment the proposed model reproduces Homoclinic Chaos (HC) and MMOs. The dynamics is completely determined by the variation of the injecting bias current in the wetting layer of the QDLED. The influence of the injecting current on the transition between Mixed Mode Oscillations and chaotic behavior has been also investigated. It was found that the theoretical model verifies the experimental findings. © 2015 EDP Sciences, SIF, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.Nanocrystals; Oscillators (mechanical); Semiconductor quantum dots; Chaotic behaviors; Complex dynamics; Homoclinic chaos; Mixed mode oscillations; Quantum-dot light emitting diodes; Theoretical investigations; Theoretical modeling; Theoretical treatments; Organic light emitting diodes (OLED)Al-Husseini, H., Al-Khursan, A.H., Al-Dabagh, S.-Y., (2009) Open Nanosci.

This concept is used for increasing multitasks performance execution effectively. Many algorithms, techniques, architectures, frameworks, and environments are found to enhance this concept and finally enhance the performance. However, two basic environments already exist to be used by parallelism; these two environments are Virtual and Physical parallelism. Both of these two runtime environments have their features, advantages and disadvantages. The paper focuses on analyze, evaluate and clarify some differences between these two environments. Results in this proposal depend on real case study executed via JavaThread, OpenMP, MPI in virtual environment and an MPI in physical environment. Implementation of the case study and validation results are shown and they clearly clarify the advantages, disadvantages and limits of using any runtime of them. © 2015 IEEE.JavaThreads; MPI; OpenMP; Virtual and Physical Parallelism environmentsJavaThreads; Multicomputers; OpenMP; Physical environments; Real case; Runtime environments; Validation results; Virtual and Physical Parallelism environments; Application programming interfaces (API)Ubling, R., Neiger, G., Rodgers, D., Santoni, A.L., Martins, M.F.C., Anderson, A.V., Bennett, S.M., Smith, L., Intel Virtualization Technology (2005) Intel Corporation, Published by the IEEE Computer Society, , 0018-9162/05/$20.00© IEEE; Lee, S., Min, S.-J., Eigenmann, R., OpenMP to GPGPU: A Compiler Framework for Automatic Translation and Optimization (2009) School of ECE, , Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN, 47907, USA, {lee222, smin, eigenman}@purdue.edu, February 14-18, Raleigh, North Carolina, USA, Copyright © 2009 ACM 978-1-60558-397-6/09/02 ... $5.00; Anderson, T., Peterson, L., Shenker, S., Turner, J., Overcoming the Internet Impasse Through Virtualization (2004) 1University of Washington, 2Princeton University, , 3UC Berkeley & ICSI, GDD-05-01, Appears as IEEE Computer (April 2005) and HotNets-III (Noveber; Jin, H., Frumkin, M., Yan, J., The OpenMP Implementation of NAS Parallel Benchmarks and Its Performance (1999) NAS Technical Report NAS-99-011, , October, {hjin, frumkin, yan}@nas.nasa.gov, NAS System Division, NASA Ames Research Center, Mail Stop T27A-2, Moffett Field, CA 94035-1000; Cappelo, F., Etiemble, D., (2000) MPIversus MPI+OpenMP on the IBM SP for the NAS Benchmarks, , LRI, Universite Paris-Sud, 91405, Orsay, France, Email: fci@lri.fr, 0-7803-9802-5/2000/$10.00©, IEEE; Hilderink, G., Broenink, J., Vervoort, W., Bakkers, A., (1997) Communicating Java Threads, , University of Twente, dept.

Tocotrienol (T3) is an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent. The role of T3 in ovarian protection throughout chemotherapy remains unclear. Aim: To investigate the role of T3 in the preservation of female fertility in CPA treatment. Method: Sixty female mice were divided into five treatment groups, namely, normal saline, corn oil only, T3 only, CPA and CPA + T3. The treatment was given for 30 days, followed by administration of gonadotrophin to induce ovulation. After killing, both ovaries were collected and examined histologically. Results: There was significant reduction in ovarian size in the CPA group compared with the normal group (CPA versus normal, mean area ± SD; 0.118 ± 0.018 vs. 0.423 ± 0.024 cm2; p ‰ 0.005), whilst concurrent administration of T3 with CPA leads to conservation of ovarian size (CPA + T3 vs. CPA, mean area ± SD; 0.285 ± 0.032 vs. 0.118 ± 0.018 cm;be p ‰ 0.005). Ovaries in CPA group showed abnormal folliculogenesis with accompanied reduced ovulation rate, follicular oedema, increased vascularity and inflammatory cell infiltration. These changes were reversed by concurrent T3 administration. Conclusion: Co-administration of T3 with CPA confers protection of ovarian morphology and function in vivo. These findings contribute to the further elucidation of CPA effect on ovary and suggest the potential of T3 use in preserving fertility in chemotherapy. © 2015 SAGE Publications.Cyclophosphamide; folliculogenesis; in vivo; ovary; tocotrienolalpha tocotrienol; chorionic gonadotropin; corn oil; cyclophosphamide; seric gonadotropin; sodium chloride; alkylating agent; alpha tocotrienol; antioxidant; cyclophosphamide; animal cell; animal experiment; animal model; Article; cell infiltration; controlled study; drug efficacy; edema; female; female fertility; female infertility; fertility preservation; histopathology; inflammatory cell; low drug dose; mouse; nonhuman; organ preservation; ovary; ovary follicle; ovary follicle development; ovary function; ovary insufficiency; ovulation; priority journal; randomized controlled trial (topic); vascularization; animal; drug effects; pathology; Animals; Antineoplastic Agents, Alkylating; Antioxidants; Cyclophosphamide; Female; Mice; Ovary; Tocotrienolsalpha tocotrienol, 1721-51-3; chorionic gonadotropin, 9002-61-3; corn oil, 8001-30-7; cyclophosphamide, 50-18-0; seric gonadotropin, 9002-70-4; sodium chloride, 7647-14-5, 23724-87-0, 49658-21-1; Antineoplastic Agents, Alkylating; Antioxidants; Cyclophosphamide; Tocotrienolsmalaysian palm oil board, Malaysia; Sigma, United StatesSlater, C.A., Liang, M.H., McCune, J.W., Preserving ovarian function in patients receiving cyclophosphamide (1999) Lupus, 8, pp. 3-10; Meirow, D., Reproduction post-chemotherapy in young cancer patients (2000) Mol Cell Endocrinol, 169, pp. 123-131; Nikolaou, D., Gilling-Smith, C., Early ovarian ageing: Are women with polycystic ovaries protected?

The novelty is that it is presented as a system of linear differential equations to describe the process of redistribution capacities of links and nonlinear algebraic equations to describe the routing of flows and congestion control. Using this model gives the opportunity to provide more efficient management of TCN resources when multiservice traffic is serviced. © 2015 Lviv Polytechnic National University.Dynamic routing; Flow; Multiservice traffic; Prediction period; Quality of ServiceDifferential equations; Microelectronics; Nonlinear equations; Quality of service; Telecommunication networks; Dynamic routing; Efficient managements; Flow; Linear differential equation; Multiservice traffic; Nonlinear algebraic equations; Computer aided designJelassi, S., Rubino, G., Melvin, H., Youssef, H., Pujolle, G., Quality of experience of VoIP service: A survey of assessment approaches and open issues (2012) Communications Surveys & Tutorials IEEE, 14 (2), pp. 491-513; Lemeshko, A.V., Evseeva, O.Yu., Garkusha, S.V., Research on tensor model of multipath routing in telecommunication network with support of service quality by greate number of indices Telecommunications and RadioEngineering, 73 (15), pp. 1339-1360; Lemeshko, O., Sterin, V., Design and Structural-Functional optimization transport telecommunication network (2013) XIIth International Conferenc the Experience of Designing and Application of Cad Systems in Microelectronics, pp. 208-210. , Lviv Polytechnic, Ukraine Feb; Lemeshko, O.V., Sterin, V.L., Structural and functional optimization of transport telecommunication network (2013) 23rd International Crimean Conference "microwave and Telecommunication Technology (CriMiCo) Ukraine, pp. 490-491. , SeptIEEE IEEE MTT/ED/AP/CPMT/SSC West Ukraine Chapter;IEEE Section UkraineInstitute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.13th International Conference: The Experience of Designing and Application of CAD Systems in Microelectronics, CADSM 201524 February 2015 through 27 February 20151185279786176077169EnglishProc.

Fermi 6, Firenze, 50125, ItalyIn this work quantum dot light emitting diode (QD-LED) was modeled in a dimensionless rate equations system where it is not done earlier. The model was examined first under bias current without any external perturbation where it exhibits chaotic phenomena since the model has multi-degrees of freedom. Then, it is perturbed by both small signal and direct current modulations (DCM), separately. The system exhibits mixed-mode oscillations (MMOs) under DCM. This behavior was reasoned to continuous states of two dimensional wetting layer (WL) which works as a reservoir to quantum dot (QD) states. QD capture was the dominant rate controlling the dynamic behavior in QD-LED. The nonlinear dynamic behavior of our model is compared very well to the experimental observations in the QD-LED. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.

Power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 8.13 % was achieved for this DSSCs device, which is higher than that of DSSCs devices using NiO, RGO, and RGO/NiO-CE (PCE = 2.71 %, PCE = 6.77 % and PCE = 7.63 %). Also, the fill factor of the DSSCs devices using the RGO/MWCNTs/NiO-CE was better than that of other CEs. The electron transfer measurement of cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy showed that RGO/MWCNTs/NiO film could provide fast electron transfer between the CE and the electrolyte, and high electrocatalytic activity for the reduction of triiodide in a CE based on RGO/MWCNTs/NiO in a DSSC. © 2015, The Author(s).Carbon nanotubes; Counter electrode; Dye-sensitized solar cells; Graphene oxide; Nickel oxideCarbon nanotubes; Cyclic voltammetry; Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy; Electrodes; Electrolytes; Electron transitions; Graphene; Graphene oxide; Nanocomposites; Nickel oxide; Tin oxides; Counter electrodes; Electrocatalytic activity; Electron transfer; Fast electron transfer; Fill factor; Fluorine doped tin oxide; Power conversion efficiencies; Triiodide; Dye-sensitized solar cellsNational Natural Science Foundation of China, NSFC: 11204093, 11304106, 11374110, 51371085; National Basic Research Program of China (973 Program): 2011CB933300This work was supported by the National Basic Research Program (2011CB933300) of China, and the National Natural Science Foundation of China (11374110, 11204093, 51371085, and 11304106).O’Regan, B., Grätzel, M., Low-cost, high efficiency solar cell based on dye-sensitized colloidal TiO2 films (1991) Nature, 353, pp. 737-740; Grätzel, M., Photoelectrochemical cells (2001) Nature, 414, pp. 338-344; Yella, A., Lee, H.W., Tsao, H.N., Yi, C., Chandiran, A.K., Nazeeruddin, M.K., Diau, E.W.G., Grätzel, M., Porphyrin sensitized solar cells with cobalt (II/III)-based redox electrolyte exceed 12 % efficiency (2011) Science, 334 (6056), pp. 629-634; Ito, S., Chen, P., Comte, P., Nazeeruddin, M.K., Liska, P., Péchy, P., Grätzel, M., Fabrication of screen printing pastes from TiO2 powders for dye-sensitised solar cells (2007) Prog.

The simulation results indicated that the performance characteristics of GaN-based quantum-well VCSEL were improved when the AlGaN EBL has been added. The effect of Al mole fraction (x) of the AlxGa1-xN EBL on the GaN-based VCSEL performance ranging from x = 0.15 to x = 0.25 was also studied. At x = 0.15 to x = 0.17, the threshold current was reduced. This reduction in the threshold current is due to the increase in the carrier confinement which is achieved by accumulated much more carrier close to the active region caused by the added AlxGa1-xN EBL. Above the x = 0.17, the threshold current was increased which is attributed to the saturation of the carriers inside the active region that leads to increase in the leakage current. It also was due to that the EBL obstacle the hole flowing in the active region in the x > 0.17. GaN-based VCSEL had the optimum performance with Al0.17Ga0.83N EBL; therefore, the effect of Al0.17Ga0.83N EBL thickness on the GaN-based quantum well VCSEL performance has also been investigated. According to the simulation results, the GaN-based VCSEL had the optimum performance when the EBL thickness was 25 nm. © 2015 Published by Elsevier GmbH.Differential quantum efficiency; Electron blocking layer (EBL); Multiple quantum well; Simulation; Vertical cavity surface emitting laserAluminum gallium nitride; Computer aided design; Computer aided software engineering; Gallium alloys; Gallium nitride; III-V semiconductors; Laser pulses; Quantum well lasers; Semiconductor alloys; Semiconductor quantum wells; Carrier confinements; Differential quantum efficiency; Electron blocking layer; Intracavity-contacted; Optimum performance; Performance characteristics; Simulation; Threshold currents; Surface emitting lasersUniversiti Sains Malaysia; Graduate University of Advanced Technology, GUATThe support from Graduate University of Advanced Technology, Kerman, Iran, Shahid Beheshti University, Tehran, Iran and Universiti Sains Malaysia is gratefully acknowledged.Huang, S.J., Yena, S.T., (2007) J.

For this purpose, the wetting layer (WL) and QD inhomogeneity contribution in SONS has been considered. In addition, the structure size effect, energy level separation, momentum matrix elements, and pump detuning have been examined, and show that the SONS is increased by using the WL, a low momentum matrix element of WL-QD transition in comparison with interdot transition while QD inhomogeneity reduces SONS to half. This work is predicted to play a key role in terahertz applications, since the frequency emissions obtained are in the range of 75.5-600 μm. © 2015 Optical Society of America.Electric fields; Ladders; Nanocrystals; Double quantum dots; Inhomogeneities; Momentum matrix element; Second-order nonlinear susceptibility; Structure sizes; Terahertz applications; Terahertz emissions; Wetting layer; Semiconductor quantum dotsZhao, P., (2012) Compact Terahertz Sources Based on Difference Frequency Generation, , Ph.D. thesis (Lehigh University; Zhao, L., Khanal, S., Wu, C., Kumar, S., Proposal for a broadband THz refractive-index sensor based on quantum-cascade laser arrays (2015) Opt.

BaTiO3 is interesting due to its room-temperature ferroelectric properties and relative low toxicity. Organic precursors present during growth make carbon a potentially key impurity, which would subsequently impact upon the BaTiO3 properties. This paper presents a density function study of the structural and electronic properties of carbon substituting for Ti in rhombohedral BaTiO3. The local vibrational modes of the defect centre has been calculated and suggested as a possible route to experimental identification. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Barium compounds; Electronic properties; Insulating materials; Perovskite; Titanium compounds; Carbon substituting; Defect centres; Density functionals; Experimental identification; Ferroelectric property; Local vibrational mode; Organic precursor; Structural and electronic properties; DefectsChatterjee, S., Stojanovic, B.D., Maiti, H., (2003) Mater.

Transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy images and X-ray diffraction analysis clearly indicated the formation of NiO-NF/MWCNT nanocomposite. The electro-chemical properties of NiO-NF/MWCNT CE are studied by cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. In particular, current-voltage measurements indicated superior power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 7.63% of the NiO-NF/MWCNT CE compared to 6.72% for the platinum (Pt). The superior photovoltaic performance and low cost of the NiO-NF/MWCNT nanocomposite can be potentially exploited as a new counter-electrode in DSSCs. © 2015 Elsevier B.V.

The duct geometry and computational mesh were developed with ANSYS 14 ICEM. Two-dimensional governing equations were discretized and integrated using finite volume technique. The k-e{open} turbulence model was used in the analysis. Al2O3 and CuO nanoparticles at volume fractions varying from 1% to 4% with water as the base fluid were employed for turbulent flow in a passage with a double forward-facing step. The effects of volume fraction and step height were compared with the base fluid thermal performance. The obtained results showed an increase in the Nusselt number with the increase in volume fraction of nanofluid, Reynolds number, and step height. A higher local Nusselt number value was found at the second step compared to the first step for all cases. Velocity contours were developed to visualize the recirculation regions before and after the first and second steps. The results also demonstrated enhanced heat transfer with the increase of nanoparticle concentration, and the largest thermal enhancement factor occurred for the highest nanoparticle volume fraction (4%) of Al2O3 considered in this investigation. © 2014 Taiwan Institute of Chemical Engineers.Double forward-facing step;

However, due to their relatively low modulus of elasticity and thinned walls, these sections are vulnerable to local buckling which can affect their ultimate strength. This paper investigates experimentally the flexural behaviour of pultruded GFRP beams with shear span-to-depth (a/d) ratios in the range of 1.2 to 6 using full scale pultruded profiles. Failure modes, strength and crack patterns are the main parameters that were examined in this study. The study shows that shear span has a minor effect on the failure modes of the beams while it has a noticeable effect on the ultimate strength. In addition, fibre model analysis was used to validate the experimental results. Comparison between the experimental and the theoretical analysis results shows a good approximation of the moment - deflection behaviour and failure moment of pultruded GFRP beams. © APFIS 2015.

Therefore, it is important to use an accurate method to determine these properties as the behaviour is often governed by deflection rather than strength. In this study, full size pultruded glass FRP (GFRP) beams were used to determine the elastic properties using static four-point bending with different shear span to depth (a/d) ratios. Two different methods-back calculation and simultaneous - were then employed to evaluate the flexural modulus and shear stiffness and were compared with the results of the test using coupon specimens.

Such GRNs are characterized by their scale-free degree distributions and existence of network motifs - i.e., small-node subgraphs that occur more abundantly in GRNs than expected from chance alone. Because these transcriptional modules represent "building blocks" of complex networks and exhibit a wide range of functional and dynamical properties, they may contribute to the remarkable robustness and dynamical stability associated with the whole of GRNs. Here, we developed network-construction models to better understand this relationship, which produce randomized GRNs by using transcriptional motifs as the fundamental growth unit in contrast to other methods that construct similar networks on a node-by-node basis. Because this model produces networks with a prescribed lower bound on the number of choice transcriptional motifs (e.g., downlinks, feed-forward loops), its fidelity to the motif distributions observed in model organisms represents an improvement over existing methods, which we validated by contrasting their resultant motif and degree distributions against existing network-growth models and data from the model organism of the bacterium Escherichia coli. These models may therefore serve as novel testbeds for further elucidating relationships between the topology of transcriptional motifs and network-wide dynamical properties. © 2015 Abdelzaher, Al-Musawi, Ghosh, Mayo and Perkins.Attachment kernel; Degree distribution; Motif; Power-law; Transcriptional networkBioinformatics; Biology; Escherichia coli; Stability; Attachment kernel; Degree distributions; Motif; Power-law; Transcriptional networks; Complex networksAlbert, R., Barabási, A.-L., Statistical mechanics of complex networks (2002) Rev.

In fact, different singularities are different in nature. Some singularities caused by particular configuration, some singularities caused by failure in kinematic model and others caused by architecture of the manipulator. This paper focuses on the architecture singularities analysis. The detection of architecture singularity is very important issue in design process because it causes dangerous situation and lead to ill-condition configuration of parallel manipulator. The quality index used as good index to avoid architecture singularities and obtain on optimal architectural parameters that leading to a good properties for design the manipulator. The effects location of the joints, translation and rotation of the moving platform are analyzed. The technique used for architecture singularity analysis of a 6 DOF parallel manipulator based on neural network algorithm. It is concluded this method decreases the processing time to analyze architecture singularity and get on optimal structural parameters. © Research India Publications.Architecture singularity; Design of parallel manipulator; Kinematic analysis; Neural netwrok; OptimizationStan, S., Maties, V., Balan, R., Optimal Design of a 2 DOF Micro Parallel Robot Using Genetic Algorithms” Proceedings of the 2007 IEEE-ICIT 2007, IEEE International Conference on Integration Technology, pp. 719-724. , March 20-24, 2007, Shenzhen, China, IEEE Catalog Number:07EX1735, ISBN: 1-4244-1091-6, ISBN: 1-4244-1092-4; Gogu, G., Structural synthesis of parallel robotic manipulators with decoupled motions (2002) Internal Report ROBEA MAX-CNRS; Basu, D., Ghosal, A., Singularity Analysis of Platform-Type Multi-Loop Spatial Mechanisms (1997) Mechanism and Machine Theory, 32 (3), pp. 375-389; Andersson, K., Khan, S., (2009) Investigation of Parallel Kinematic Mechanism Structures for Haptic Devices, , presented at 2nd Nordic Conference on Product Lifecyc1e Management-NordPLM'09, Gothenburg January; Stocco, L.J., Salcudean, S.E., Sarsani, F., Optimal kine matic design of a haptic pen (2001) IEEE/ASME 'Lionsactiom on Meehatmnics, 6 (3), pp. 210-220; Alizade, R., Bayram, C., Structural synthesis of parallel manipulators (2004) Mechanism and Machine Theory, 39, pp. 857-870; Diab, N., Smaili, A., Optimum exact/approximate point synthesis of planar mechanisms (2008) Mechanism and Machine Theory, 43, pp. 1610-1624; Huang, M.Z., Design of a Planar Parallel Robot for Optimal Workspace and Dexterity (2011) International Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 8, pp. 176-183; Miller, K., Optimal Design and Modeling of Spatial Parallel Manipulators (2004) The International Journal of Robotics Research, 23, pp. 127-140; Gao, Z., Zhang, D., Ge, Y., Design optimization of a spatial six degree‐of‐freedom parallel manipulator based on artificial intelligence approaches (2010) Robotics and Computer Integrated Manufacturing, 26, pp. 180-189; Ghanbari, A., Noorani, S., Optimal Trajectory Planning for Design of a Crawling Gait in a Robot Using Genetic Algorithm (2011) International Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 8, pp. 29-36; Mohammed, M., Elkady, A., Sobh, T., A New Algorithm for Measuring and Optimizing the Manipulability Index (2009) International Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 6, pp. 145-150; Zhang, Y., Duffy, J., The Optimum Quality Index for a Redundant 4-4 In-Parallel Manipulator (1998) Romansy 12: Theory and Practice of Robots and Manipulators, Proceedings of the Twelfth Cism-Iftomm Symposium, pp. 289-296; Zhang, Y., Duffy, J., Crane, C., The Optimum Quality Index for a Redundant 4-8 In-Parallel Manipulator (2000) Submitted to the 7Th International Symposium on Advances in Robot Kinematics, Piran-Portoroz, , Slovenia, June; Lee, J., Duffy, J., Keler, M., “The Optimum Quality Index for the Stability of In-Parallel Planar Platform Devices (1996) Proceedings of the ASME 24Th Biennial Mechanisms Conference, , 96-DETC/MECH-1135, Irvine, Ca; Lee, J., Duffy, J., Hunt, K.H., A Practical Quality Index Based on the Octahedral Manipulator (1998) The International Journal of Robotics Research, 17 (10), pp. 1081-1090; Hunt, K.H., McAree, P.R., The Octahedral Manipulator: Geometry and Mobility (1998) The International Journal of Robotics Research, 17 (8), pp. 868-885Research India Publications09734562EnglishInt.

Because the parallel manipulator has three degree of freedom (DOF), one translation degree of freedom and two rotational degrees of freedom, it has received considerable attention from both researchers and manufacturers over the past years. The geometrical equations of this parallel manipulator are derived, the physical constraints are introduced and the inverse kinematic equations are analyzed. Parasitic motions are occurring in the constrained DOFs of the parallel manipulator is a key issue affecting its application. The effect structural parameters upon kinematics performance of the parallel manipulator are proposed.

In this paper, a new 2RPU+RPS parallel manipulator which can generate three degrees-of-freedom (DOF), one translation degree of freedom and two rotational degrees of freedom is proposed. The aim of this paper is to perform the kinematic modeling and the workspace analysis of a 3-DOF Parallel Manipulator. The inverse kinematic is derived. The workspace generation is investigated by using the discretization method for the determination of work volume of the 3-DOF parallel manipulator. © Research India Publications.Inverse kinematic; Parallel manipulator; WorkspaceClavel, R., Delta, a fast robot with parallel geometry (1988) Proc. 18Th Int.

In countries like Iraq the use of stone columns is still limited from a practical point of view, chiefly as many other soil conditions are commonly encountered. These include collapsible soils: soils that are prone to relatively rapid volume compressions (through collapse of metastable fabrics) that occur due to the action of load and/or increases in water content. Recent work has opened up the possibility to use stone columns in these soils by the use of encasement, thereby overcoming the impact of loss of lateral support when collapse occurs. Area of potential will be discussed; why stone columns could be beneficial for use in Iraq and how employing them as an alternative to conventional ground improvement techniques in number of Iraqi projects would be cost saving and has other benefits. Also, a review of soil conditions in Iraq will be presented and focusing how to treat collapsible soil by encasing the individual stone column by geofabrics illustrating the scope for developing a reliable design approach which suits Iraqi soils. An evidence of their potential applicability in Iraqi soils will be presented. Moreover, the installation technique, facts regarding failure, factors control the behaviour of encased stone columns, calculation of bearing capacity and settlement and some previous related laboratory work will be reviewed as well as recommendations regarding the proposal work in this field are produced with this paper.Collapsible soils; Encased stone columns; Ground improvement; Iraqi Problematic soilsGeotechnical engineering; Soil mechanics; Calculation of bearing capacities; Collapsible soil; Design approaches; Ground improvement; Installation technique; Soil conditions; Stone column; Volume compression; SoilsAl-Busoda, B., (1999) Studies on the Behavior of Gypseous Soil and Its Treatment during Loading, , M.Sc.

The as-prepared CE is constructed by a nanoscale method of layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly based on the electrostatic interactions between negatively (PANI-PSS/MWCNT) and positively (PDADMAC/MWCNT) charged nanoparticles. The (CNT-/CNT+)4 multilayer CE displayed remarkably enhanced electrocatalytic activities toward the reduction reaction and low charge-transfer resistance (Rct) of 0.3 Ω at the CE/electrolyte interface. The DSSC with (CNT-/CNT+)4 multilayer-CE showed the highest fill factor (0.71) and cell efficiency (9.13%) compared to our other electrodes. © The Royal Society of Chemistry 2015.Charge transfer; Deposition; Electrodes; Film preparation; Multilayers; Nanocomposite films; Nanostructured materials; Polyaniline; Solar cells; Catalytic materials; Charge transfer resistance; Charged nanoparticles; Counter electrodes; Electrocatalytic activity; Layer by layer deposition; Layer-by-layer assemblies; Poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate); Dye-sensitized solar cellsRegan, B.O., Grätzel, M., Low-cost, high efficiency solar cell based on dye-sensitized colloidal TiO2 films (1991) Nature, 353, pp. 737-740; Grätzel, M., Photoelectrochemical cells (2001) Nat.

Piré. Twenty eight vascular plants related to 16 families were recorded in S. pallida community type. Poaceae, Barassicaceae and Asteraceae were the most important families. Chenopodium murale, Rumex dentatus and Euphorbia helioscopia were the common associates. Therophytes were the most frequent life-form (85.7%). The floristic composition of this community was strongly influenced by the Mediterranean elements (15 species). S. pallida preferred wet, loamy sand textured, non-saline, fertile and neutral-slightly alkaline soils. The aerial fraction of this Caryophyllaceous weed showed high nutritive value of 276.17 cal. /100 g. The polyphenols and flavonoids contents have been detected with mean values of 1.95 and 5.85%, respectively. The yield of volatile oils of the flowers was 143 mg/100 g. Twenty compounds were identified in the volatile oils of Stellaria pallida flowers. © 2015 Asian Network for Scientific Information.Ecology; Flavonoids; Polyphenols; Stellaria; Volatile oilsessential oil; flavonoid; plant medicinal product; polyphenol; tannin; terpene; Article; Asteraceae; autecology; Brassicaceae; Chenopodium; column chromatography; Egypt; Euphorbia; flower; gas chromatography; mass fragmentography; metabolite; nutritional value; phytochemistry; plant leaf; plant root; plant stem; Poaceae; Rumex dentatus; Stellaria; vegetationpolyphenol, 37331-26-3; tannin, 1401-55-4(2000) Official Methods of Analysis, , AOAC., 17th Edn., Association of Official Analytical Chemist, Washington, DC., USA; Abu El-Shyokh, M.A., (2013) Eco-Physiology of Some Taxa of Family Solanaceae, , M.Sc.

It was studied whether industrial weld-size criteria can produce pull-out failure modes. Based on the failure mechanism of the spot welds in a cross-tension test, a simple analytical model is proposed to predict the critical FZ size to ensure the pull-out failure mode. According to the findings, the sheet thickness, the hardness ratio of the fusion zone to the sub-critical heat-affected zone, the amount of shrinkage voids in the fusion zone and the width of the HAZ are the main controlling factors for the transition from the interfacial to the pull-out failure mode in cross-tension loading. The fusion-zone size was proved to be the key factor controlling the cross-tension and tensile-shear strengths of DP780 resistance spot welds.Advanced high-strength steel; Failure mode; Resistance spot weldingPouranvari, M., Influence of welding parameters on peak load and energy absorption of dissimilar resistance spot welds of DP600 and AISI1008 steels (2011) Can.

Rectangular adiabatic obstacles mounted behind the expansion region on the upper and lower wall of the channel used. The effects of obstacles length, obstacles thickness, and number of obstacles on flow and thermal fields for different Reynolds number and expansion ratio examined. Three values of expansion ratio equal to 1.5, 1.75, and 2 were used. The choice of values of Reynolds number takes in consideration the symmetry state. The governing equations of continuity, momentum, and energy discretized by using the finite difference formulation and the resulting algebraic equations solved by using Gauss-Seidle iteration method. The obtained results show that the obstacles have a considerable effect on dynamics of the flow and enhancement of heat transfer. In addition, it is found that the heat transfer is enhanced more as the obstacles thickness increases and this trend is decreased as the obstacles length increases.Laminar flow; Obstacles; Sudden expansion channelScott, P.S., A Finite Element Analysis of Laminar Flows through Planar and Axisymmetric Abrupt Expansions (1986) Computers and Fluids, 14 (4), pp. 423-432; Tang, T., Ingham, D.B., Multigrid Solutions of Steady Two-Dimensional Flow past a Cascade of Sudden Expansions (1992) Computers and Fluids, 21 (4), pp. 647-660; Battaglia, F., (1996) Bifurcation of Low Reynolds Number Flows in Symmetric Channels, , American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics; Thiruvengadam, M., Bifurcated Three-Dimensional Forced Convection in Plane Symmetric Sudden Expansion (2005) International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer, 48 (15), pp. 3128-3139; Baloch, A., On Two and Three Dimensional Expansion Flows (1995) Computers and Fluids, 24 (8), pp. 863-882; Battaglia, F., Papadopoulos, G., Bifurcation Characteristics of Flows in Rectangular Sudden Expansion Channels (2006) Journal of Fluids Engineering, 128 (4), pp. 671-679; Hammad, K.J., A PIV Study of the Laminar Axisymmetric Sudden Expansion (1999) Flow Experiments in Fluids, 26 (3), pp. 266-272; Schreck, E., Schafer, M., Numerical Study of Bifurcation in Three Dimensional Sudden Channel Expansions (2000) Computers and Fluids, 29 (5), pp. 583-593; Hawa, T., Rusak, Z., The Dynamics of a Laminar Flow in a Symmetric Channel with a Sudden Expansion (2001) J.

Watermarking is closely related to Stenography except that it hides information in cover object. Watermarking usually serves the purpose of copyright protection and ownership authentication, for example, watermarking can hide a stego-image inside a visible image and user can retrieve the stego-image and secret image in some way. In this paper, we will integrate two algorithms of information hiding, (steganography) F4 algorithm and (visible image) LSB algorithm to improve the level of protection. The secret image is concealed inside a common image through F4 algorithm and the resultant F4 steg-image is then hidden again as a visible image or watermark inside another image by LSB algorithm. To provide more than one level of protection for the hidden message, we will require additional security level to protect the secret image, which leads to increased complexity of retrieving the secrete image. The results prove the success of system after the secret image is retrieved successfully. The value of MSE, SNR and PSNR is calculated, which refers to an acceptable steganography system.F4 algorithm; Least significant bit; Transform domain techniques; Visible watermarkCopyrights; Steganography; Watermarking; Copyright protections; Design and implementations; Hidden messages; Information hiding; Least significant bits; Secret information; Security level; Transform domain; Image enhancementChandramouli, R., Kharrazi, M., Memon, N., Image Steganography and Steganalysis: Concepts and Practice (2004) Second International Workshop, 2939, pp. 35-49. , Seoul, Korea, Revised Papers; Jain, J., Johari, P., Digital Image Watermarking Based on LSB for Gray Scale Image (2014) IJCSNS International Journal of Computer Science and Network Security, 14 (6), pp. 108-112. , June; Jassim, F.A., Novel Steganography Algorithm for Hiding Text in Image using Five Modulus Method (2013) International Journal of Computer Applications (0975-8887), 72 (17), pp. 39-44. , June; Hussain, M., Hussain, M., A Survey of Image Steganography Techniques (2013) International Journal of Advanced Science and Technology, 54, pp. 113-124. , May; Alturki, F., Mersereau, R., Secure blind image steganographic technique using discrete fourier transformation (2001) IEEE International Conference on Image Processing, 2, pp. 542-545. , Thessaloniki, Greece; Provos, N., Probabilistic Methods for Improving Information Hiding (2001) CITI Technical Report 01-1, pp. 1-8. , January; Isbell, R.A., Steganography: Hidden Menace or Hidden Saviour (2002), Steganography White Paper, 10 May; Arora, A., Nirvair Neeru, T., IMAGE STEGANOGRAPHY TECHNIQUES: AN OVERVIEW (2014) International Journal For Technological Research In Engineering, 1 (9), pp. 924-929. , May; Chen, K., uanchin Chen (2009), Western Michigan University, USA, IGI Global; Provos, N., Honeyman, P., Hide and Seek: An introduction to steganography (2003) IEEE Security and Privacy Journal, 1 (3), pp. 32-44; Fridrich, J., Lukas, J., Goljan, M., Digital Camera Identification from Sensor Noise (2006) IEEE Transactions on Information Security and Forensics, 1 (2), pp. 205-214; Provos, N., Defending Against Statistical Steganalysis (2001) Proceedings of USENIX Security Symposium, pp. 323-335; Kawale, A., Gaidhani, S., Digital Image Watermarking (2013) International Journal of Scientific & Engineering Research, 4 (5), pp. 1899-1901; Perwej, Y., Parwej, F., Perwej, A., An Adaptive Watermarking Technique for the copyright of digital images and Digital Image Protection (2012) The International Journal of Multimedia & Its Applications (IJMA), 4 (2), pp. 21-38; Wang, R.Z., Lin, C.F., Lin, J.C., Image hiding by optimal LSB substitution and genetic algorithm (2001) Pattern Recognition, 34 (3), pp. 671-683; Puneet, K.S., Rajni, ANALYSIS OF IMAGE WATERMARKING USING LEAST SIGNIFICANT BIT ALGORITHM (2012) International Journal of Information Sciences and Techniques (IJIST), 2 (4), pp. 95-101. , July; Bateman, P., Hans, Image Steganography and Steganalysis (2008), M.S., Department of Computing Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences, University of Surrey Guildford Surrey, United Kingdom, Submitted for the Degree of Master of Science in Security Technologies & Applications; Wang, R.Z., Lin, C.F., Lin, J.C., Image hiding by optimal LSB substitution and genetic algorithm (2001) Pattern Recognition, 34 (3), pp. 671-683. , Mar; Westfeld, A., F5 - A Steganographic Algorithm: High Capacity Despite Better Steganalysis (2001) Lecture Notes in Computer Science, 2137, pp. 289-302; Mukhopadhyay, S.C., Dawson, F.P., Iwahara, M., Yamada, S., A Novel Compact Magnetic Current Limiter for Three Phase Applications (2000) IEEE Transactions on Magnetics, 36 (5), pp. 3568-3570. , September; Yamada, S., Chomsuwan, K., Mukhopadhyay, S.C., Iwahara, M., Kakikawa, M., Nagano, I., Detection of Magnetic Fluid Volume Density with a GMR Sensor (2007) Journal of Magnetics Society of Japan, 31 (2), pp. 44-47; Thomas, A., Sugumar, D., Vanathi, P.T., Blind Image Source Separation based on MMCA using Dictionary Technique (2013) International Journal of Advanced Research in Electronics and Communication Engineering (IJARECE), 2 (2), pp. 182-186; Khamrui, A., Mandal, J.K., A Genetic Algorithm based Steganography using Discrete ; (2013) International Conference on Computational Intelligence:Modeling Techniques and Applications(CIMTA), 10, pp. 105-111; Sheisi, H., Mesgarian, J., Rahmani, M., Steganography: Dct Coefficient Replacement Method and Compare With Jsteg Algorithm (2012) International Journal of Computer and Electrical Engineering, 4 (4), pp. 458-462; Hamdan, L.J., Beiji, Z., A novel approach of combining steganography algorithms (2015) International Journal on Smart Sensing and Intelligent Systems, 8 (1), pp. 90-106; Tao, W., Design of digital image encryption algorithm based on mixed chaotic sequences (2014) International Journal on Smart Sensing and Intelligent Systems, 7 (4), pp. 1453-1469Massey University11785608EnglishInt.

Then, subbands of dots with different disk radii and heights were calculated under applied field. The competition between the shift due to confinement by field and the size was shown for subbands. Second-order nonlinear susceptibility in quantum dots (QDs) was derived using density matrix theory which is, then, simulated using the calculated subbands. Both interband (IB) and intersubband (ISB) transitions were discussed. High second-order susceptibility in QDs was predicted. The results show a reduction in the susceptibility with the applied field while the peak wavelength was mainly relates to energy difference between subbands. A good match between theory and laboratory experiments was observed. Laboratory experiments at terahertz region might be possible using valence intersubband which is important in many device applications. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.

The result showed that the color of the pectin is, soluble in hot and cold alkali and water. The results showed that the pectin of Citrus sinensis induced hypolipidemic effect; it significantly decreased total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL and VLDL serum levels and significantly increased serum HDL level in hyperlipidemic mice. Pectin could be inhibited lipid parameters by many mechanisms. Accordingly, because of the safety of pectin and its significant hypolipidemic effects, it might be considered as therapeutic alternative in hyperlipidemia. © 2015, Sphinx Knowledge House.

A total of 40 male adult albino rats (Rattus norvegicous) weighing from 200-300 gm each, were divided into four groups of (10) animals each. The first group received a daily intraperitonial (i.p) injection of vehicle normal saline (0.5ml\animal, daily to end experiment), and served as control group. Animals in the second, third and fourth groups were administrated i.p. with bleomycin (15mg\kg\3times weekly for 3 wks), losartan (50mg\kg orally daily to end experiment) and losartan a combination with bleomycin simultaneously to end experiment, respectively. The present study, declared that the biochemical results determined the levels of Superoxide dismutase (SOD), Glutathion peroxidase (GSHpx) and Hydroxyproline(HYP) content in blood serum of animals. Where after oral administration of losartan in combination with bleomycin, showed that losartan significantly increase SOD P˂0.008 and GSHpx P˂0.001 levels, and decreased HYP P˂0.001 contents in blood stream of the rats in comparison with bleomycin group. conversely, study showed After intraperitonial injection of bleomycin alone, decreased level of SOD, GSHpx and increased of HYP content in blood serum of rats in comparison of control group. On the other hand, microscopical observations clarified that bleomycin injection showed that inflammatory cells infiltration and fibrotic scores were more prominent, in addition to that, atelected alveoli with damage to lung architecture as well as collagens deposition around patches of alveoli and peribronchioles in the model group compared to the control group, oral administration of losartan in combination with bleomycin, showed marked attenuated the severity of bleomycin –induced pulmonary fibrosis, where identified by reduce the inflammatory cells infiltration whether intraaleveolar or interalveolar septa. This investigation has clearly identified the importance role of losartan as inhibitor factor on pulmonary fibrosis induced by blm, therefore the findings may be offer one of therapeutic strategy to prevent the lung fibrosis in experimental model. © 2015, Sphinx Knowledge House.

The production of bio-alcohol from lignocellulosic wastes requires pretreatment, hydrolysis and fermentation steps. Pretreatment technologies are aimed to break down the recalcitrant structure of lignocellulosic biomass and release the fermentable sugar in the extraction of sugar process for bio-alcohol production. Microwave-based pretreatment has been considered as one of the promising methods of pretreatment, utilising thermal and non-thermal effects that drive physical, chemical or biological reactions. The advantages of microwave-assisted process such as in waste treatment and food drying by reducing the plant footprint, higher throughput, higher reaction rates, higher yield and purity have increased more interest of late. This paper reviews the recent application of microwave-assisted pretreatment of lignocellulosic material via the combination of microwave pretreatment with other physical and chemical pretreatment methods. The synergistic effect of microwave-assisted pretreatment with other pretreatment methods could enhance the fermentable sugar yield from various feedstocks. Different operating parameters that govern the reducing sugar yields such as biomass loading, microwave intensity, and irradiation time are presented. Formation of inhibitor compounds during microwaved-assisted pretreatment are also discussed. © School of Engineering, Taylor’s University.Lignocellulosic biomass; Microwave; Operating parameters; Pretreatment;

Sample solutions to the model were obtained for both analytical analysis and numerical analysis. It is assumed that the capillary pressure is neglected (Morris, 2003). Results are provided for liquid film thickness, total heat flux, and evaporating heat flux distribution. In addition to the sample calculations that were used to illustrate the transport characteristics, computations based on the current model were performed to generate results for comparisons with the analytical results of Wang et al. (2008) and Wayner Jr. et al. (1976). The calculated results from the current model match closely with those of analytical results of Wang et al. (2008) and Wayner Jr. et al. (1976). This work will lead to a better understanding of heat transfer and fluid flow occurring in the evaporating film region and develop an analytical equation for evaporating liquid film thickness. © 2015 Ahmed Jassim Shkarah et al.Analytical models;

Salicylaldehyde phenylhydrazone was immobilized onto silica rice husk ash to form a heterogeneous catalyst denoted as RHPHMP. The BET measurements of the catalyst showed that the surface area to be 194m2/g with pore size distribution fall within the microporous region. The FT-IR clearly showed the presence of NH and CN absorption bands at the expected range. The elemental and EDX analysis of RHPHMP showed the nitrogen is included into the catalyst structure. The RHPHMP was efficient for the hydrolysis of cellulose, with maximum glucose yield over 82% at 140°C in 14h. The catalysts were simple in its preparation, stable during the cellulose hydrolysis in addition to repeatedly without a significant loss of its catalytic activity. © 2014 Taiwan Institute of Chemical Engineers.Biofuels; Glucose; Hydrolysis of cellulose; Rice husk ash; Salicylaldehyde phenylhydrazone; Surface modificationGlucose; Surface treatment; Phenylhydrazones; Rice husk ash; BiofuelsOlanrewaju, K.B., (2012) Reaction kinetics of cellulose hydrolysis in subcritical and supercritical water, , The University of Iowa, Iowa, (PhD thesis); Yu, B., Chen, H.Z., Effect of the ash on enzymatic hydrolysis of steam exploded rice straw (2010) Bioresour Technol, 101, pp. 9114-9119; Wald, S., Wilke, C.R., Blanch, H.W., Kinetics of the enzymatic-hydrolysis of cellulose (1984) Biotechnol Bioeng, 26, pp. 221-230; Andersen, (2007) Enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose experimental and modeling studies, , BioCentrum-Dtutechnical, University of Denmark, Denmark, (PhD thesis); Hello, K.M., Hasan, H.R., Sauodi, M.H., Morgen, P., Cellulose hydrolysis over silica modified with chlorosulphonic acid in one pot synthesis (2014) Appl Catal, A: Gen, 475, pp. 226-234; Adam, F., Hello, K.M., Ben Aisha, M.R., The synthesis of heterogeneous 7-amino-1-naphthalene sulfonic acid immobilized silica nano particles and its catalytic activity (2011) J Taiwan Inst Chem Eng, 42, pp. 843-851; Wang, H.P., Lin, K.S., Huang, Y.J., Li, M.C., Tsaur, L.K., Synthesis of zeolite ZSM-48 from rice husk ash (1998) J Hazard Mater, 58, pp. 147-152; Nun, P., Martin, C., Martinez, J., Lamaty, F., Solvent-free synthesis of hydrazones and their subsequent N-alkylation in a ball-mill (2011) Tetrahedron, 67, pp. 8187-8194; Shirini, F., Zolfigol, M.A., Mallakpour, B., Mallakpour, S.E., Hajipourc, A.R., Baltork, I.M., A mild and efficient method for cleavage of CN using Mg (HSO4)2 in the presence of wet SiO2 (2002) Tetrahedron Lett, 43, pp. 1555-1556; Love, B.E., Jones, E.G., The use of salicylaldehyde phenylhydrazone as an indicator for the titration of organometallic reagents (1999) J Org Chem, 64, pp. 3755-3756; Nursabah, S., Gazi, I., Synthesis and complex formation of some novel vic-dioxime derivatives of hydrozone (2005) Turk J Chem, 29, pp. 107-115; Das, D.K., Goswami, P., Sarma, S., SalicylaldehydePhenylhydrazone: a new highly selective fluorescent lead(II) probe (2013) J Fluorescence; Real, C., Alcala, M.D., Criado, J.M., Preparation of silica from rice husks (1996) J Am Chem Soc, 79, pp. 2012-2016; Adam, F., Chua, J.H., The adsorption of palmytic acid on rice husk ash chemically modified with Al(III) ion using the sol-gel technique (2004) J Colloid Interface Sci, 280, pp. 55-61; Ahmed, A.E., Adam, F., Indium incorporated silica from rice husk and its catalytic activity (2007) Microporous Mesoporous Mater, 103, pp. 284-295; Adam, F., Osman, H., Hello, K.M., The immobilization of 3-(chloropropyl)triethoxy silane onto silica by a simple one-pot synthesis (2009) J Colloid Interface Sci, 331, pp. 143-147; Jugal, K.P., Raghubir, S., Varinder, K.C., Raj, P.S., Novel hexacoordinateorganosilicon(IV) complexes of diethylenetriamine Schiff base with SiO2N3 skeleton (2009) ARKIVOC, 11, pp. 247-256; Adam, F., Ahmed, A.E., Sia, L.M., Silver modified porous silica from rice husk and its catalytic potential (2008) J Porous Mater, 15, pp. 433-444; Adam, F., Abdelmoniem, I., Thankappan, R., Benzoylation of p-xylene at the solid-liquid interface on iron incorporated silica (2010) Open Colloid Sci J, 3, pp. 15-24; Thommes, M., Physical adsorption characterization of nanoporous materials (2010) Chem Ing Tech, 82, pp. 1059-1073; Rahman, M.M., Takafuji, M., Ihara, H., Preparation telomerization immobilization and application of N-alkyl l-phenylalanine-derived polymerizable organogelator for reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (2008) J Chromatogr A, 1203, pp. 59-66; Díaz, I., Mohino, F., Pérez-Pariente, J., Sastre, E., Synthesis characterization and catalytic activity of MCM-41-type mesoporous silicas functionalized with sulfonic acid (2001) Appl Catal, A: Gen, 205, pp. 19-30; Dutta, S., De, S., Alam, M.I., Abu-Omar, M.M., Saha, B., Direct conversion of cellulose and lignocellulosic biomass into chemicals and biofuel with metal chloride catalysts (2012) J Catal, 288, pp. 8-15Hello, K.M.; Chemistry Department, College of Science, Al-Muthanna UniversityIraqTaiwan Institute of Chemical Engineers18761070EnglishJ.

An experimental investigation was done to evaluate the heat transfer characteristics and the pressure drop of a graphene nanoplatelet (GNP) nanofluid and in numerical study, the finite volume method with standard k-ε turbulence model is employed to solve the continuity, momentum, energy and turbulence equations in three dimensional domains. The thermal conductivity and viscosity of the GNP nanofluids at concentrations of 0.025, 0.05, 0.075, and 0.1 wt% were measured prior to the heat transfer experiments. The heat transfer and the pressure drop within the flowing base fluid (distilled water) were measured and compared with the corresponding data from the correlations and numerical study. The data were satisfied within a 5% error and 2% error for the numerical work. The effects of the nanoparticle concentration and the heat flux on the enhancement of the heat transfer turbulent flow condition are presented. The Nusselt number (Nu) of the GNP nanofluid was higher than the base fluid by approximately 3-83% and increased as the flow rate and the heat flux increased. However, the increase in the pressure drop ranged from 0.4% to 14.6%. Finally, the results reveals that the GNP nanofluids could function as a good and alternative conventional working fluid in heat transfer applications. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.

In this work, we employed two different strategies to mechanically stress cancer cells. The cancer and healthy cell populations were treated either with mechanical stress delivered by a micropump (fabricated by deep X-ray nanolithography) or by ultrasound wave stimuli. A specific down-regulation of Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) class I molecules expression on cancer cell membrane compared to different kinds of healthy cells (fibroblasts, macrophages, dendritic and lymphocyte cells) was observed, stimulating the cells with forces in the range of nano-newton, and pressures between 1 and 10 bar (1 bar=100.000 Pascal), depending on the devices used. Moreover, Raman spectroscopy analysis, after mechanical treatment, in the range between 700-1800 cm-1, indicated a relative concentration variation of MHC class I. PCA analysis was also performed to distinguish control and stressed cells within different cell lines. These mechanical induced phenotypic changes increase the tumor immunogenicity, as revealed by the related increased susceptibility to Natural Killer (NK) cells cytotoxic recognition. © 2014 La Rocca et al.major histocompatibility antigen class 1; HLA antigen class 1; antigen expression; Article; cancer cell; cell membrane; cell stimulation; controlled study; cytotoxicity; dendritic cell; down regulation; fibroblast; human; human cell; immunogenicity; lymphocyte; macrophage; mechanical stress; natural killer cell; phenotype; cell culture; cell membrane; genetics; HEK293 cell line; immunology; mechanical stress; metabolism; neoplasm; Raman spectrometry; tumor escape; Cell Membrane; Cells, Cultured; Down-Regulation; HEK293 Cells; Histocompatibility Antigens Class I; Humans; Killer Cells, Natural; Neoplasms; Phenotype; Spectrum Analysis, Raman; Stress, Mechanical; Tumor EscapeHistocompatibility Antigens Class IYang, G., Crawford, R.C., Wang, J.H., Proliferation and collagen production of human patellar tendon fibroblasts in response to cyclic uniaxial stretching in serum-free conditions (2004) J Biomech, 37, pp. 1543-1550; Guck, J., Ananthakrishnan, R., Mahmood, H., Moon, T.J., Cunningham, C.C., The optical stretcher: A novel laser tool to micromanipulate cells (2001) Biophys J, 81, pp. 767-784; Ashkin, A., Acceleration and trapping of particles by radiation pressure (1970) Phys Rev Lett, 24, pp. 156-159; Constable, A., Kim, J., Mervis, J., Zarinetchi, F., Prentiss, M., Demonstration of a fiber-optical light-force trap (1993) Opt Lett, 18, pp. 1867-1869; Guck, J., Ananthakrishnan, R., Moon, T.J., Cunningham, C.C., Käs, J., Optical deformability of soft biological dielectrics (2000) Phys Rev Lett, 84, pp. 5451-5454; Guck, J., Schinkinger, S., Lincoln, B., Wottawah, F., Ebert, S., Optical deformability as an inherent cell marker for testing malignant transformation and metastatic competence (2005) Biophys J, 88, pp. 3689-3698; Khaled, W., Reichling, S., Bruhns, O.T., Boese, H., Baumann, M., Palpation imaging using a haptic system for virtual reality applications in medicine (2004) Stud Health Technol Inform, 98, pp. 147-153; Paszek, M.J., Zahir, N., Johnson, K.R., Lakins, J.N., Rozenberg, G.I., Tensional homeostasis and the malignant phenotype (2005) Cancer Cell, 8, pp. 241-254; Paszek, M.J., Weaver, V.M., The tension mounts: Mechanics meets morphogenesis and malignancy (2004) J Mammary Gland Biol.

The proposed dimensionless model exhibits homoclinic chaos Furthermore, it is also able to reproduce Mixed Mode Oscillations and chaotic spiking regimes. The chaotic dynamics is completely determined by the variation of the injecting bias current and modulating current of the carrier in the wetting layer, as evidenced by means of the modulation depth of the system and bifurcation diagram. The influence of the injecting current on the transition between Mixed Mode Oscillations and chaos has been also investigated. © 2014 IEEE.Chaos; control; Mixed Mode Oscillations; Quantum Dot LEDChaos theory; Chaotic systems; Control engineering; Nanocrystals; Oscillators (mechanical); Semiconductor quantum dots; Bifurcation diagram; Chaotic dynamics; Dimensionless models; Homoclinic chaos; Mixed mode oscillations; Modulation depth; Quantum-dot light emitting diodes; Wetting layer; Organic light emitting diodes (OLED)Al-Husseini, H., Al-Khursan, A.H., Al-Dabagh, S.-Y., Iii-nitride qd lasers (2009) Open Nanosci J, 3, pp. 1-11; Chuang, S.L., (1996) IEEE J.

Governments, particularly those in developed countries, boast about the efficiency of their electronic systems. Meanwhile, most agencies in developing countries, such as Iraq, lack the advantages provided by new technologies. Therefore, this study aims to discover the limitations of e-health services in developing countries through a literature review, as well as establish an effective system that allows information exchange between the main office and its branches in the local government. Considering the health-related importance of an Health Electronic Record (HER) System, this study designs a system that connects all branch offices with the main office in the center of the province. The development of techniques to improve time and cost management, data handling, decision making, and interactions between agencies is indispensable. The proposed system is expected to improve the quality of service, which allows one branch of a local government to generate up to dozens of files in different locations. Ultimately, this system will assist the local government of Dhi-Qar Province in converting these files into one secure and accessible database. © 2014 IEEE.decision making; electronic health; electronic records; quality service; sharing informationData handling; Decision making; Developing countries; Health; Information dissemination; Quality of service; Records management; Developed countries; Development and applications; Electronic health; Electronic records; Electronic transaction; Information exchanges; Quality services; Sharing information; Electronic document exchangeHomburg, V., (2008) Understanding E-government: Information Systems in Public Administration, , Routledge; Gant, J., Electronic government for developing countries (2008) International Telecommunication Union ITU) Geneva; Heeks, R., (2005) Implementing and Managing EGovernment: An International Text, , Sage; Zimmermann, P., Finger, M., Information-And communication technology (ict) and local power relationships: An impact assessment (2005) The Electronic Journal of E-government, 3, pp. 231-240; Tapscott, D., (1996) The Digital Economy: Promise and Peril in the Age of Networked Intelligence, 1. , McGraw-Hill New York; (2013) Waseda University International E-Government Ranking, , http://www.waseda.jp/eng/news12/130326-egov.html, 2013 [Accessed: August 2013]; Guha-Sapir, D., Degomme, O., Pedersen, J., (2007) Mortality in Iraq, " the Lancet, 369, p. 102; Soufi, B., Maguire, M., Achieving usability within e-government web sites illustrated by a case study evaluation (2007) Human Interface and the Management of Information.

Turbulence was modeled using the shear stress transport K-ω model. Simulations were performed for Reynolds numbers ranging from 10,000 to 40,000, heat fluxes from 1,000 to 10,000 W/m2, and nanoparticle volume fractions of 0.00% to 0.25%. The two-dimensional governing equations were discretized with the finite volume method. The effects of nanoparticle concentration, shear force, heat flux, contraction, and turbulence on the hydraulics and thermal behavior of nanofluid flow were studied. The model predictions were found to be in good agreement with previous experimental and numerical studies. The results indicate that the Reynolds number and FMWCNT volume fraction considerably affect the heat transfer coefficient; a rise in local heat transfer coefficient was noted when both Reynolds number and FMWCNT volume fraction were increased for all cases. Moreover, the contraction of the channel passage leads to the formation of two recirculation regions with augmented local heat transfer coefficient value. © 2014 Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.Facings; Finite volume method; Heat flux; Heat transfer coefficients; Reynolds number; Shear flow; Turbulence; Volume fraction; Experimental and numerical studies; Heat Transfer enhancement; Local heat transfer coefficient; Nanoparticle concentrations; Nanoparticle volume fractions; Recirculation regions; Shear-stress transport; Turbulent forced convection; NanofluidicsUniversiti MalayaThe authors gratefully acknowledge the High Impact Research Grant UM.C/ HIR/MOHE/ENG/45 UMRG RP012D-13AET and University of Malaya, Malaysia, for the support in conducting this research work.Barbosa-Saldana, J.G., Anand, N.K., Flow over a three-Dimensional horizontal forward-Facing step (2007) Numer.

The governing nonlinear magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations in induction-free situations are derived in the framework of MHD approximations and solved numerically using the finite-difference technique. The critical values of Reynolds number (based on upstream mean velocity and channel height) for symmetry breaking bifurcation for a sudden expansion channel (1:4) is about 36, whereas the value in the case of the smooth expansion geometry used in this work is obtained as 298, approximately (non-magnetic case). The flow of an electrically conducting fluid in the presence of an externally applied constant magnetic field perpendicular to the plane of the flow is reduced significantly depending on the magnetic parameter (M). It is found that the critical value of Reynolds number for smooth expansion (1:4) is about 475 for the magnetic parameter M = 2. The separating regions developed behind the smooth symmetric expansion are decreased in length for increasing values of the magnetic parameter. The bifurcation diagram is shown for a symmetric smoothly expanding channel. It is noted that the critical values of Reynolds number increase with increasing magnetic field strength. © 2014 Chinese Physical Society and IOP Publishing Ltd.Asymmetric flow; Flow bifurcation; Smooth expansion; Weakly electrically conducting fluidBifurcation (mathematics); Expansion; Geometry; Magnetic field effects; Magnetic fields; Magnetism; Nonlinear equations; Reynolds number; Asymmetric flows; Constant magnetic fields; Electrically conducting fluids; Finite-difference techniques; Flow bifurcations; Magneto-hydrodynamic flow; Magnetohydrodynamic equations; Symmetry-breaking bifurcations; MagnetohydrodynamicsArmaly, B.F., Durst, F., Pereira, J.C.F., Schonung, B., (1983) J.

Food and Drug Administration, Jefferson, AR, United StatesSalmonella infection is one of the major foodborne illnesses in the United States. Several Gram-negative bacterial pathogens, including Salmonella Typhi, produce cytolethal distending toxin (CDT), which arrests growth, induces apoptosis of infected host cells and extends persistence of pathogenic bacteria in the host. The aim of this study was to characterize the functionality of CDT (cdtB, pltA and pltB) from nontyphoidal Salmonella isolates. Fifty Salmonella enterica serovar Javiana isolates from food, environmental, and clinical samples were screened for cdtB, pltA, and pltB genes by PCR, and all were positive for all three genes. Nucleotide sequence analysis of all amplified PCR products showed 100% identity to S. Typhi cdtB. To understand the roles of CdtB, PltA, and PltB in S. Javiana, cdtB, pltA, and pltB deletion mutants were constructed using a lambda Red-based recombination system. In vitro-cultured HeLa cell lines were infected with a wild-type strain and its isogenic {increment}cdtB, {increment}pltA, and {increment}pltB to determine whether the strains of S. Javiana are responsible for invasion and cytolethal distending intoxication, including cell cycle arrest, cytoplasmic distension, and nuclear enlargement of host target cells. The results showed that HeLa cells infected with S. Javiana wild type were arrested in G2/M and had distended cytoplasm and nuclei that were larger than those infected with S. Javiana {increment}cdtB and {increment}pltA strains. The S. Javiana {increment}pltB strain retained the ability to induce cytoplasmic distension and cell cycle arrest, whereas the complemented {increment}cdtB and {increment}pltA S. Javiana strains showed activity like the wild-type strains. CdtB and pltA from S. Javiana had apparent effects on the distension of both cytoplasm and nucleus as well as cell cycle arrest of HeLa cell lines after 72 h of infection. Our data show a significant difference between the wild-type cdtB strain and its isogenic {increment}cdtB for invasion of the cell lines. Therefore, CdtB produced from S. Javiana strains may play an important role in pathogenesis in host cells. © 2014.

Contrary to the previous studies performed up to now with diluted l-alanine, the electrochemical process generated here results in a completely different situation. The oxidation on smooth platinum was carried out by electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM) coupled to cyclic voltammetry technique. The effects of concentration, scan rate, and pH (zwitterion at pH = 6 and alkaline media at pH = 13) on potential values were examined. Glassy carbon and smooth gold electrodes showed the same behavior as on smooth platinum electrode. Spectroscopic analysis such as attenuated total reflectance FT infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) were used to characterize the resulting thin film coatings. The presence of peptide bonds is clearly highlighted. DFT modelization of poly(alaninate) strand on Pt(001) coupled to spectroscopic measurements are in favor of l-alanine electropolymerization into poly-l-alanine in an irreversible way. Due to its proton receptor behavior, electrosynthesized poly-l-alanine on smooth platinum electrode was tested as a whole solid transducer for pH sensing. © 2014 American Chemical Society.Alkalinity; Anodic oxidation; Carbon; Cyclic voltammetry; Electrolytes; Electropolymerization; Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy; Glass; Glass membrane electrodes; Peptides; Platinum; Quartz crystal microbalances; Spectroscopic analysis; X ray photoelectron spectroscopy; Attenuated total reflectance; Electrochemical process; Electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance; Ft-infrared spectroscopies; Glassy carbon electrodes; Platinum electrodes; Spectroscopic measurements; Thin-film coatings; Amino acidsMarx, K.A., Zhou, T., Comparative Study of Electropolymerization versus Adsorption of Tyrosine and the Decyl Ester of Tyrosine on Platinum Electrodes (2002) J.

In contrast to a full martensitic microstructure predicted by the Schaeffler and Balmforth diagrams, a ferrite–martensite microstructure was observed in the fusion zone. The formation of ferrite phase in the fusion zone can be attributed to the rapid cooling rate of resistance spot welding, which suppresses the post-solidification ferrite–austenite transformation. The grain growth and martensite formation were main metallurgical features of the heat affected zone of ferritic stainless steel side. Microstructure gradient of heat affected zone in dual phase steel side was dictated by martensitic transformation. The effect of weld thermal cycle on the mechanical performance of the joint is discussed. ©2014 Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining.Dual phase steel; Ferritic stainless steel; Mechanical properties; Phase transformation; Resistance spot weldingDual phase steel; Ferrite; Ferritic stainless steel; Grain growth; Heat affected zone; Martensite; Martensitic transformations; Mechanical properties; Microstructure; Phase transitions; Spot welding; Austenite transformations; Ferrite phase; Martensite Formation; Martensitic microstructure; Mechanical performance; Resistance spot weld; Resistance spot welding; Weld thermal cycles; Steel metallurgyPouranvari, M., Marashi, S.P., ‘Critical review of automotive steels spot welding: Process, structure and properties’ (2013) Sci.

Inhomogeneity in QDs is included in the calculations of the real part (Kerr) and the imaginary part (absorption) of the density matrix, which has not been covered before in Kerr calculations. Five configurations are studied: Y, ladder, Λ, staircase, and weak probe. Frequency detunings, controlling fields, and phases are used to study the structures. Our system shows high controllability as well as a giant Kerr dispersion, propagation without distortion, wide electromagnetic induced transparency, and switching between subluminal to superluminal propagation by tuning its fields. © 2014 IOP Publishing Ltd.absorption; Kerr dispersion; quantum dotAbsorption; Dispersion (waves); Electromagnetic wave propagation; Nanocrystals; Configuration model; Density matrix theory; Double quantum dots; Electromagnetic induced transparency; Inhomogeneities; Kerr nonlinearity; Quantum dot systems; Superluminal propagation; Semiconductor quantum dotsHamedi, H.R., Asadpour, S.H., Sahrai, M., (2013) Giant Kerr Nonlinearity in A Four-Level Atomic Medium Optik, 124, pp. 366-370; Bai, Y., Liub, T., Yu, X., (2013) Giant Kerr Nonlinearity in An Open V-Type System with Spontaneously Generated Coherence Optik, 124, pp. 613-616; Wang, L.G., Qamar, S., Zhu, S.Y., Zubairy, M.S., Manipulation of the raman process via incoherent pump, tunable intensity, and phase control (2008) Phys.

Iraqi public and private organizations have problem to choose the right staff in the right position within the right time. The issues of choosing right person led to first administrative corruption, second waste the effort, third discarded the public money, fourth made the government less effective and fifth less efficiency government. Recently, Data warehouse is used to provide reports for public and private organizations' human resources. The reports and analysis that data warehouse provide can help the human resource personnel to select the right person in the right time for the suitable job. Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research (MOHESR) in Iraq can apply data warehouse to support its decision making. They can use it also to support human resource system in Iraq. This paper creates data warehouse architecture for human resource systems of public and private organizations which give authorized access for students' information of both public and private universities in Iraq. Moreover, the MOHESR can use this idea to increase its income by allowing the public and private organizations to find the proper staff through annual payment access. © 2014 IEEE.data warehouse & higher education sector; Human resourceData warehouses; Decision making; Data warehouse architecture; Higher education; Private organizations; Public money; Resource system; Scientific researches; PersonnelSuresh, S.S., Mahale, M., Student performance analytics using data warehouse in e-governance system (2011) International Journal of Computer Applications, 20 (6); Dan-Ping, Z.H.A.N.G., A data warehouse based on university human resource management of performance evaluation (2009) Information Technology and Applications, 2009.

The model maps the porous structure to a number of parallel micro-channels of arbitrary but constant cross-sectional shapes which remains uniform along the flow path. The gas permeability is found to follow Klinkenberg's equation. The Klinkenberg's slip factor is obtained as a function of matrix porosity and no-slip permeability as well as gas properties. Results are generalized by assuming an arbitrary polygonal shape for the pores. The proposed methodology is simple to follow and easy to implement. Theoretical predictions are then compared to existing experimental data in the literature to observe good agreement. © 2014 Elsevier Inc.

Inhomogeneity in QDs has been included in the calculations of the real (Kerr) and imaginary (absorption) parts of the density matrix, which has not been covered in the earlier Kerr calculations. Our system exhibits high controllability with a single parameter. Giant Kerr dispersion, propagation without distortion, wide electromagnetic-induced transparency, and switching between subluminal to superluminal propagation are obtained by tuning its fields. Controlling and cycling fields can also control the system in addition to the pump field. © 2014 Optical Society of America.Electromagnetic wave propagation; Semiconductor quantum dots; Density matrix; Electromagnetic induced transparency; Inhomogeneities; Kerr nonlinearity; Pump fields; Single parameter; Superluminal propagation; Third-order; Optical Kerr effectLukin, M.D., Yelin, S.F., Fleischhauer, M., Scully, M.O., Quantum interference effects induced by interacting dark resonances (1999) Phys.

Mathematical model based on finite volume method with a FORTRAN code is used to solve the continuity, momentum, energy and turbulence equations. Turbulence was modeled by the shear stress transport (SST) K-ω Model. In this simulation, three volume fractions of nanofluid (0%, 2% and 4%), a varying Reynolds number from 50 to 200 for the laminar range and 5000 to 20,000 for the turbulent range, an expansion ratio of 2 and constant heat flux of 4000 W/m2 were considered. The results show the effect of nanofluid volume fraction on enhancing the Nusselt number in the laminar and turbulent ranges. The effect of expansion ratio was clearly observed at the downstream inlet region where the peak of the Nusselt number profile was referred to as enhanced heat transfer due to the generated recirculation flow. An increase of pressure drop was evident with an increasing Reynolds number and decreasing nanofluid volume fraction, while the maximum pressure drop was detected in the downstream inlet region. A rising Reynolds number caused an increasing Nusselt number, and the highest heat transfer augmentation in the present investigation was about 26% and 36% for turbulent and laminar range, respectively compared with pure water. © 2014 Elsevier Inc.

The behaviour of axial heat conduction in the separating wall under different conditions is studied. The solution was obtained by solving the continuity and Navier–Stokes equations for the hot and cold fluids by using the pressure-correction method to obtain the velocity distribution, and then the energy equations were solved for the two fluids and the separating wall simultaneously to obtain the temperature distribution. The governing equations are discretized using finite-volume and the hybrid differencing scheme with FORTRAN code was used. Various parameters that can have effect on the axial heat conduction were investigated. The results showed that, the axial heat conduction plays an important role in a parallel flow microchannel heat exchanger and the factors affecting the local and average axial heat conduction are; Reynolds number (Re), thermal conductivity ratio (Kr), hydraulic diameter (Dh), thickness of separating wall (ts) and channel volume. Increasing of Re, Kr and ts leads to an increase in the axial heat conduction while increasing of Dh and channel volume leads to a decrease in the axial heat conduction. © 2013Axial heat conduction; Effectiveness; Microchannel heat exchanger; Numerical solution; Parallel flowHeat exchangers; Microchannels; Navier Stokes equations; Parallel flow; Reynolds number; Thermal conductivity; Axial heat conduction; Differencing scheme; Effectiveness; Micro-channel heat exchangers; Numerical solution; Pressure-correction methods; Thermal conductivity ratio; Triangular microchannels; Heat conductionHussien Al-bakhit, Ahmad Fakheri, 2005.

A phosphite based product, Nutri-phite (3% N, 8.7% P, and 5.8% K) was used as model phosphite formulation for foliar application in winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L). Five field trials were established in the fall of 2009 and 2010 at Perkins, Perry, and Morrison, OK. Treatments encompassed the application of nitrogen (N) at 100 or 75% of crop need and phosphorus at 100 (P 100%) and 80% (P 80%) sufficiency with and without Nutri-phite. Nutri-phite was applied at one and/or two stages of wheat; GS 13 to 14 and GS 49 to 53 at the rate of 433 and 148 g ha-1 P and N, respectively. Grain yield was increased by Nutri-phite treatments, especially at Morrison. Grain P concentration of plots treated with two applications of Nutri-phite ranged from 13 to 55% more than the nontreated and standard NP received plots at Perkins in 2009/10 and Perry in 2010/11. Grain P uptake was increased due to application of Nutri-phite at Perkins in 2009/10 and Morrison and Perry in 2010/11. Combined over three year-locations, Nutri-phite increased grain P concentration by 11.6%. The higher grain P concentration of plots treated with Nutri-phite compared to the other treatments clearly demonstrates its potential in improving P status of wheat grain. © 2014 Muaid S.

Field emission scanning electron microscope and atomic force microscope images showed that the pre-etched thin films have a sufficiently smooth surface over a large region with wurtzite structure. The roughness increased with an increase in etching duration. The blue shift phenomenon was measured for photoluminescence emission peaks at 300 K. The energy band gap increased to be 3.18 and 3.16 eV for post-etched films at ratios of 1:4 and 1:5, respectively. At the same time, the photoluminescence intensities of the post-etched thin films indicated that the optical properties have been enhanced. © 2013 Elsevier Inc.Atomic force microscopy; III-nitride semiconductor; Photoluminescence; Porous InGaNAtomic force microscope images; Field emission scanning electron microscopes; III-nitride semiconductors; Photo-electrochemical etching; Photoluminescence emission; Photoluminescence intensities; Porous InGaN; Structural and optical properties; Atomic force microscopy; Optical properties; Photoluminescence; Zinc sulfide; Thin filmsUniversity of Kufa; Universiti Sains MalaysiaThe authors gratefully acknowledge support from Reseach University (RU) Grant , Universiti Sains Malaysia , and University of Kufa .Abud, S.H., Hassan, Z., Yam, F., (2012) Int.

To keep these important structures in a safe condition, continuous monitoring must be performed regularly and thoroughly. Small rodent burrows are one of the major defects within levees; however, their early detection and repair helps in protecting levees during flooding events. A set of laboratory experiments was conducted to analyze the polarity change in GPR signals in the presence of subsurface voids and water-filled cavities. Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) surveys using multi frequency antennas (400. MHz and 900. MHz) were conducted along an 875. meter section of the Lollie Levee near Conway, Arkansas, USA, to assess the levee's structural integrity. Many subsurface animal burrows, water-filled cavities, clay clasts, and metallic objects were investigated and identified. These anomalies were located at different depths and have different sizes. To ground truth the observations, hand dug trenches were excavated to confirm several anomalies. Results show an excellent match between GPR interpreted anomalies and the observed features. In-situ dielectric constant measurements were used to calculate the feature depths. The results of this research show that the 900. MHz antenna has more advantages over the 400. MHz antenna. © 2014 Elsevier B.V.Animal burrows; Cavities; Dielectric constant; Ground penetrating radar; Levee; PolarityAnnan, A.P., (2001) Ground Penetrating Radar-Workshop Notes, p. 192. , Sensors & Software Inc., Canada; Boryssenko, A., Subsurface radar imaging of underground archeological objects in Kyiv Petcherskaja Lavra, Kyiv, Ukraine (1999) Proceedings of the 1999 IEEE Canadian Conference on Electrical and Computer Engineering, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, pp. 855-860; Butler, J., Roper, T.J., Clark, A.J., Investigation of badger (Meles meles) setts using soil resistivity measurements (1994) J.

The extended Poincaré-Lighthill-Kuo perturbation method is used to derive the Korteweg-de Vries equations for MASWs in this three-component plasma. The effects of the magnetic field intensity B0, the ratio of negative ions to positive ions number density δ, and the plasma number density on the phase shift are investigated. It is found that these parameters can significantly influence the phase shifts of colliding MASWs. The present investigation should be useful for understanding the propagation and interaction between two MASWs that may occur in pair ion plasmas with electron impurities. © 2013 Published by NRC Research Press.Electron-impurity; Head-on collision; Magnetic-field intensity; Number density; Pair-ion plasma; Perturbation method; Poincare; Three-component; Ions; Nonlinear equations; Phase shift; Solitons; Collisional plasmasChabrier, G., Douchin, F., Potekhin, A.Y., (2002) J.

Nanofluid is used as a cooling fluid, since the flow and heat transfer have been studied with two types of nanofluids (Diamond-water and Al2O3-water) in addition to the pure water. The volumetric concentration of selected nanofluids has been chosen in range (1-4)%. The comparison of hydrodynamic and thermal characteristics of different fin geometries and cooling fluids has been made under the same value of Reynolds number and constant wall temperature thermal boundary condition, the range of Re used is (100-900) to ensure that, the flow remains in the laminar regime. The results obtained indicated that, using of nanofluid instead of pure fluid as a coolant leads to enhanced heat transfer performance by increasing the amount of heat dissipated but it also leads to increased pressure drop for all fins shapes and nanofluids studied. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

The processes consist of agitation as a novel stripping method used to overcome the ammonia toxicity regarding aerobic microorganisms. The NH3-N removal ratio was 93.9% obtained at pH 11.5 and a gradient velocity (G) 150s-1 within a five-hour agitation time. By poly ferric sulphate (PFS) coagulation followed the agitation process; chemical oxygen demand (COD) and biological oxygen demand (BOD5) were removed at 70.6% and 49.4%, respectively at an optimum dose of 1200mgL-1 at pH 5.0. The biodegradable ratio BOD5/COD was improved from 0.18 to 0.31 during pretreatment step by agitation and PFS coagulation. Thereafter, the effluent was diluted with sewage at a different ratio before it was subjected to sequencing batch reactor (SBR) treatment. Up to 93.3% BOD5, 95.5% COD and 98.1% NH3-N removal were achieved by SBR operated under anoxic-aerobic-anoxic conditions. The filtration process was carried out using sand and carbon as a dual filter media as polishing process. The final effluent concentration of COD, BOD5, suspended solid (SS), NH3-N and total organic carbon (TOC) were 72.4mgL-1, 22.8mgL-1, 24.2mgL-1, 18.4mgL-1 and 50.8mgL-1 respectively, which met the discharge standard. The results indicated that a combined process of agitation-coagulation-SBR and filtration effectively eliminated pollutant loading from landfill leachate. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.Agitation; Anoxic-aerobic SBR; Filtration; Landfill leachate; PFS coagulationAerobic microorganisms; Agitation; Anoxic-aerobic SBR; Biological oxygen demand; Landfill leachate treatment; Landfill leachates; Sequencing batch reactors; Total Organic Carbon; Biochemical oxygen demand; Coagulation; Effluent treatment; Filtration; Leachate treatment; Sewage; Loading; ammonia; carbon; poly ferric sulphate; polymer; unclassified drug; bioreactor; chemical oxygen demand; coagulation; effluent; filtration; landfill; leachate; pollutant removal; waste treatment; agitation process; anaerobic metabolism; article; biochemical oxygen demand; bioremediation; chemical composition; chemical oxygen demand; chemical reaction; coagulation process; controlled study; dilution; economic evaluation; filtration; landfill leachate; pH; pollution control; priority journal; sand; sequencing batch reactor; sewage effluent; suspended particulate matter; total organic carbon; velocity; waste component removal; waste management; Agitation; Anoxic-aerobic SBR; Filtration; Landfill leachate; PFS coagulation; Ammonia; Biodegradation, Environmental; Biological Oxygen Demand Analysis; Carbon; Filtration; Hydrogen-Ion Concentration; Silicon Dioxide; Spectrophotometry; Water Pollutants, Chemical; Water Purificationammonia, 14798-03-9, 51847-23-5, 7664-41-7; carbon, 7440-44-0China Scholarship Council, CSC; China University of Geosciences, Wuhan, CUG; Department of Science and Technology, Hubei Provincial People's Government: 2006AA305A05This work was financially supported by the Hubei Provincial Science and Technology Department with grant No. 2006AA305A05.

The k-ε model with finite volume method used to solve continuity, moment and energy equations. The boundary condition represented by uniform and constant heat flux on inner pipe with range of Reynolds number varied from 7500 to 30,000 and contraction ratio(CR) varied from 1.2 to 2. The numerical result shows increase in local heat transfer coefficient with increase of contraction ratio (CR) and Reynolds number. The maximum of heat transfer coefficient observed at contraction ratio of 2 and Reynolds number of 30,000 in compared with other cases. Also pressure drop coefficient noticed rises with increase contraction ratio due to increase of recirculation flow before and after the step height. In contour of velocity stream line can be seen that increase of recirculation region with increase contraction ratio (CR). © (2014) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland.Annular pipe; Heat transfer; Recirculation flow; Sudden contractionAnnular pipe; Constant heat flux; Local heat transfer coefficient; Pressure drop coefficients; Re-circulation flow; Recirculation regions; Sudden contraction; Turbulent heat transfer; Finite volume method; Heat flux; Industrial engineering; Reynolds number; Heat transferArmaly, B.F., Durst, F., Pereira, J.C.F., Schonung, B., Experimental and theoretical investigation of backward-facing step flow (1983) J.

Heavy metals in plants should be determined because prolonged human intake of toxic trace elements, even at low doses, results in organ malfunction and causes chronic toxicity. Hence, substantial information should be obtained from plants that grow on soils containing high concentrations of heavy metals. This study aimed to determine the physicochemical characteristics of soil and heavy metal concentrations (Pb, Cr, Mn, Cu, and Zn) in different parts of D. esculentum and soil, which were collected from the fern garden of Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia. Results showed that heavy metals were highly accumulated in D. esculentum roots. ©2014 AIP Publishing LLC.Diplazium esculentum; Heavy metals plant; Heavy metals soil; Medicinal fern; Soil profilRai, V., Agnihotri, A., Khatoon, S., Rawat, A., Mehrotra, S., (2005) Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 74 (3), pp. 464-469; Bin, C., Xiaoru, W., Lee, F.S., (2001) Analytica Chimica Acta, 447 (1), pp. 161-169; Subramanian, R., Gayathri, S., Rathnavel, C., Raj, V., (2012) Asian Pacific Journal of Tropical Biomedicine, 2 (1), pp. S74-S78; Zhu, X.-M., Kuang, Y.-W., Xi, D., Li, J., Wang, F.-G., (2013) BioMed Research International 2013; Dayang, S., Fauziah, I.C., (2013) Pertanika Journal of Tropical Agricultural Science, 36 (2), pp. 161-177; Anderson, D.K., Hall, E.D., (1993) Annals of Emergency Medicine, 22 (6), pp. 987-992; Badri, M., Aston, S., (1983) Environmental Pollution Series B, Chemical and Physical, 6 (3), pp. 181-193; Burt, R., (2004) Soil Survey Laboratory Methods.

This study aimed to identify the soil properties (pH, EC, CEC,percentage clay content, and organic matter) that affect the heavy metal uptake in medicinal plant. The heavy metal concentrations (lead, iron, manganese, zinc, copper, and chromium) in the parts of D. esculentum (roots, rhizomes, young leaves, mature leaves, and fiddleheads) and soils where the plants grow were analyzed. The study was carried out in the UKM fern garden and TasikChini forest in Malaysia. The heavy metal concentrations were extracted using wet digestion method and determined by inductively coupled plasma spectroscopy ICP-MS. The heavy metals in the soil of TasikChini showed different values compared with those in the UKM fern garden. Correlation analysis showed that the properties of soil affected the concentrations of heavy metals in the soil and plant parts. Furthermore, many significant correlations were observed. © 2014, Sphinx Knowledge House.

ROA & REST are set of constraints that introduce a new concept of an architectural styles used in Distributed Systems. In DS all developers know XML files are used to transfer data services over global internet. However, these XML files have many important features, but these features are not enough to get high performance due to its huge size and complexity of processing. Then to overcome this problem, this paper introduces a new model to enhance data services transfer over internet. The proposed model state, MPI messages are advised to be used instead of XML files to send data services transfer. Also this paper provides a case study and a validation result that explains the benefit of using MPI in contrast to XML files with ROA & REST. © 2014 The Authors.MPI; REST; ROAFielding, R.T., (2000) Architectural Styles and the Design of Network-based Software Architectures, , University of California Irvine, phD dissertation in Information and Computer Science, year; Higashinol, W.A., De Toledo, M.B.F., Capretz, M.A.M., Rest and resource-oriented architecture (2009) Proceedings First International Symposium on Services Science ISSS'09, , www.logos-verlag.de, Venturus-Innovation & Technology Center, Av.

The thermal effect is included in the web tension dynamics by considering the thermal strain induced by temperature distribution in the web span. The viscoelastic effect is introduced by using a standard linear solid (SLS) model from which a relationship between the applied stress and the resulting strain is obtained. Elevated temperature creep and stress relaxation experiments are conducted on several web materials used in an industrial web processing line to determine the viscoelastic parameters of the utilized viscoelastic model. Model simulations are conducted with the same control systems as those used in an industrial web processing line. Data from model simulations are compared with measured data obtained from the industrial web processing line.

In this study, three types of solvent extracts of Pomegranate peel were used to examine the effects of extraction solvent on total phenolics content (TPC), total flavonoids content (TFC) and antioxidant activity by 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl radical scavenging (DPPH) and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) were determined. Results showed that extraction solvent had significant effects on TPC, TFC, and antioxidant activity of acetone extract. The highest content of TPC, TFC and antioxidant activity (FRAPand DPPH) were found in 50% acetone extracts. The TPC for pomegranatepeel from84.15 to 168.26 mg gallic acid/100 g dry weight, and TFC were between 42.40 to 87.21 mg QE/100g dry weight and antioxidant activity (FRAP from 86.21 to 142.21 mg Trolox equivalents/100 g dry weight), DPPH were between 45%to88.46%). The largest amount of TPC and TFC which leads to more effective radical scavenging effect was shown by 50% acetone extract. Moreover, amount of phenolic compounds and antioxidant activities increased in acetone extract. Acetone 50% solvent showed the greatest capability in extracting antioxidants and inhibiting the free radicals produced. It was concluded that extraction solvent play important roles on the phenolics compounds and their antioxidant activity of pomegranate peel extract. © 2014, Sphinx Knowledge House.

Chemotherapy is able to kill some cancer cells especially the more rapidly replicating tumor cells, but they were nonspecific, characterized by low therapeutic index and associated with a wide range of side effects. Therefore the anticancer field still searching for treatments to avoid these side effects. The in vitro method was used to investigate the effect of pure sodium valproate on four types of tumor cell lines [HeLa (human cervical cancer cell line, Passages 18-25), Rhabdomyosarcoma (RD, at 75 passages), Ahmad-Majeed- Glioblastoma-Multiform-2005 (AMGM-5, human cerebral glioblastoma multiform at passages 75-84), Ahmed-Mohammed-Nahi-2003 (AMN-3, spontaneous mammary adenocarcinoma at 158 passages) and normal cell line Rat Embryo Fibroblast (REF, at 87 passages)] in different concentrations and at different exposure times by MTT assay. The results showed that sodium valproate induced dose- dependent cytotoxic effects against all the tested cell lines. These effect could be attributed to different mechanisms. Accordingly, sodium valproate should be considered as a good alternative therapy. © 2014-2015, Sphinx Knowledge House.

Here, to investigate the role of lymph node NK cells in disease progression, we analyze frequency, phenotype and functions of NK cells from tumour-infiltrated (TILN) and tumour-free ipsilateral lymph nodes (TFLN) of the same patients. We show an expansion of CD56dimCD57dimCD69+CCR7+KIR+ NK cells in TILN. TILN NK cells display robust cytotoxic activity against autologous melanoma cells. In the blood of metastatic melanoma patients, the frequency of NK cells expressing the receptors for CXCL8 receptor is increased compared with healthy subjects, and blood NK cells also express the receptors for CCL2 and IL-6. These factors are produced in high amount in TILN and in vitro switch the phenotype of blood NK cells from healthy donors to the phenotype associated with TILN. Our data suggest that the microenvironment of TILN generates and/or recruits a particularly effective NK cell subset. © 2014 Macmillan Publishers Limited.

In this study, three types of solvent extracts of fenugreek seeds were used to examine the effects of extraction solvent on total phenolics content (TPC), 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl radical scavenging (DPPH) and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) were determined. Results showed that extraction solvent had significant effects on TPC and antioxidant activity of acetone extract. The highest content of TPC and antioxidant activity (FRAP and DPPH) were found in 50% acetone extracts. The TPC for fenugreek seeds from 25.90 to 15.45 mg GAE/100 g DW and antioxidant activity FRAP from 47.49 to 31.85 mg TE /100 g DW, DPPH were from 67.30 % to 43.61%). The largest amount of total phenol content which leads to more effective radical scavenging effect was shown by 50% acetone extract. Moreover, amount of phenolic compounds and antioxidant activities increased in acetone extract. Acetone 50% and methanol 50% solvent showed the greatest capability in extracting antioxidants and inhibiting the free radicals produced.

Variations in antioxidant activity and total phenolic content in fruit samples among growing locations were much greater than the variation observed between parts of plant (leaves and fruits), indicating that growing locations plays a more important role than parts of plant (leaves and fruits) in Ficus hispida. The data indicated that the fruits (Tasik Chini) had the highest total phenolic content (285.42 mg/ 100g DW) and antioxidant activity FRAP, DPPH and ORAC (231.02mg/100g DW, 84.03%, and 84.03μmol/g TE) respectively, while leaves (UKM forest) had the lowest total phenolic content (138.59 mg/ 100g DW) and antioxidant activity FRAP, DPPH and ORAC (126.40 mg/100g DW, 70.87%, and 70.87μmol/g TE) respectively. Correlation analyses indicated that there was a linear relationship between antioxidant activity and the total phenolic content in fruits and leaves. However, growing locations play an important role in the total phenol content and antioxidant activity of Ficus hispida leaves and fruits. © 2014, Sphinx Knowledge House.

L. monocytogenes serovars 1/2a and 1/2b strains were dominant as compared to other two serovars 4b and 1/2c strains. The dendrogram of AscI or ApaI-digested PFGE profiles of L. monocytogenes strains was classified into 23 (with 8 groups) or 3 (with 2 groups) different PFGE types, respectively. The AscI-digested groups consisted of the same serovar or food-source. Antimicrobials such as ampicillin, gentamicin, and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole are widely used in the treatment of listeriosis. Of the isolates used in this study, NCTR_LM14 and NCTR_LM57 were resistant to several classes of antimicrobials including aminoglycosides, penicillin, tetracycline, glycopeptide and fluoroquinolones. The multi-antimicrobial resistant isolates also showed higher efflux pump activity as compared to the antimicrobial sensitive strains NCTR_LM06 and L. monocytogenes EGD-e. This study demonstrates that L. monocytogenes isolates from various food products are genetically diverse with some isolates being resistant to more than 3 different antibiotic classes. This study also indicates that the efflux pump activity of the antibiotic resistant strains was higher than antimicrobial susceptible strains. Therefore, we propose that the antibiotic resistance observed in these strains may be conferred by the results of a highly active efflux pump system. © 2014.Antimicrobial resistance; Food; Food safety; Listeria monocytogenes; PFGEAntibiotics; Food products; Food safety; Microorganisms; Food safety; Antibiotic class; Antibiotic resistance; Antimicrobial resistances; Antimicrobial susceptibility; Fluoroquinolones; Listeria monocytogenes; PFGE; Resistant strains; Listeria; Food productsAarestrup, F.M., Knochel, S., Hasman, H., Antimicrobial susceptibility of Listeria monocytogenes from food products (2007) Foodborne Pathogens and Disease, 4 (2), pp. 216-221; Aureli, P., Ferrini, A.M., Mannoni, V., Hodzic, S., Wedell-Weergaard, C., Oliva, B., Susceptibility of Listeria monocytogenes isolated from food in Italy to antibiotics (2003) International Journal of Food Microbiology, 83 (3), pp. 325-330; Bae, D., Liu, C., Zhang, T., Jones, M., Peterson, S.N., Wang, C., Global gene expression of Listeria monocytogenes to salt stress (2012) Journal of Food Protection, 75, pp. 906-912; Bae, D., Seo, K.S., Zhang, T., Wang, C., Characterization of a potential Listeria monocytogenes virulence factor associated with attachment to fresh produce (2013) Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 79 (22), pp. 6855-6861; Baucheron, S., Tyler, S., Boyd, D., Mulvey, M.R., Chaslus-Dancla, E., Cloeckaert, A., AcrAB-TolC directs efflux-mediated multidrug resistance in Salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium DT104 (2004) Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 48 (10), pp. 3729-3735; Cartwright, E.J., Jackson, K.A., Johnson, S.D., Graves, L.M., Silk, B.J., Mahon, B.E., Listeriosis outbreaks and associated food vehicles, United States, 1998-2008 (2013) Emerging Infectious Diseases, 19 (1), pp. 1-9. , (quiz 184); Chaturongakul, S., Boor, K.J., SigmaB activation under environmental and energy stress conditions in Listeria monocytogenes (2006) Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 72 (8), pp. 5197-5203; (2014) Performance standards for antimicrobial susceptibility testing; twenty-fourth informational supplement (M100-S24), , CLSI, Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute, Wayne, PA; Cole, M.B., Jones, M.V., Holyoak, C., The effect of pH, salt concentration and temperature on the survival and growth of Listeria monocytogenes (1990) Journal of Applied Bacteriology, 69 (1), pp. 63-72; Davis, J.A., Jackson, C.R., Comparative antimicrobial susceptibility of Listeria monocytogenes, L. innocua, and L. welshimeri (2009) Microbial Drug Resistance, 15, pp. 27-32; De Kievit, T.R., Parkins, M.D., Gillis, R.J., Srikumar, R., Ceri, H., Poole, K., Multidrug efflux pumps: Expression patterns and contribution to antibiotic resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms (2001) Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 45 (6), pp. 1761-1770; den Bakker, H.C., Warchocki, S., Wright, E.M., Allred, A.F., Ahlstrom, C., Manuel, C.S., Five new species of Listeria (L. floridensis sp. nov, L. aquatica sp. nov., L. cornellensis sp. nov.

Three types of aggregate gradation, two types of binder; VG-30 and Polymer modified bitumen (PMB-40) and two types of mixes Bituminous Concrete (BC) and Dense Bituminous Macadam (DBM) are used. Moisture susceptibility tests like retained stability and tensile strength ratio are conducted on Marshall specimens. The static creep test was also conducted for conditioned and unconditioned specimens to observe the effect of moisture on creep behaviour. The results indicate that Marshall stability and flow values are higher in PMB-40 mixes than in VG-30 mixes. Moisture susceptibility of PMB-40 mixes is low when compared with mix using VG-30. The reduction in retained stability, and Indirect Tensile Strength (ITS) and increase in creep are evaluated for finer, coarser and normal gradation of aggregates to observe the effect of gradation on moisture susceptibility of mixes. The retained stability is least affected when compared with other moisture susceptibility parameters. Also, gradation parameters s1 and Gradation Ratio (GR) are introduced in this paper to establish relation between aggregate gradation and moisture susceptibility and permanent deformation. Models are suggested to estimate rut depth from ITS and stability values. © 2014 Korean Society of Civil Engineers and Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.aggregate gradation; creep; retained stability; stripping; tensile strength ratioAggregates; Bark stripping; Bituminous materials; Creep; Stability; Tensile strength; Aggregate gradations; Bituminous mixes; Indirect tensile strength; Marshall stability; Moisture susceptibility; Permanent deformations; Polymer-modified bitumen; Tensile strength ratios; Moisture(1989) Resistance of Compacted Bituminous Mixture to Moisture Induced Damage, , AASHTO T-283, Washington, D.C.: American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO); Abo-Qudais, S.A., The effects of environmental damage evaluation techniques on the prediction of environmental damage in asphalt mixtures (2007) Science Direct, Building and Environment Journal, 42, pp. 288-296; Abo-Qudais, S.A., Haider, H.A., Effect of antistripping additives on environmental damage of bituminous mixtures (2007) Science Direct, Building and Environment Journal, 42, pp. 2929-2938; (1989) Resistance of Plastic Flow of Bituminous Mixtures Using Marshall Apparatus, , ASTM D 1559; Brown, E.R., Bassett, C.E., (1989) The Effects of Maximum Aggregate Size on Properties of Asphalt Aggregate Mixes, p. 53. , Alabama, USA: Report submitted to Highway Research Center, Harbert Engineering, Auburn University; Cominsky, R., Leahy, R.B., Harrigan, E.T., (1994) Level One Mix Design: Material Selection, Compaction, and Conditioning, , USA: Report SHRP-A-408, Strategic Highway Research Program, National Research Council; Eliana, P., John, E.P., (2006) HMA Pavement Performance and Durability, p. 7. , USA: Joint Transportation Research Program, School of Civil Engineering, Purdue University; Hicks, R.G., Moisture damage in asphalt concrete (1991) NCHRP Synthesis of Highway Practice 175, Transportation Research Board, National Research Council, 121, pp. 92-99; (2006) Paving Bitumen Specifications, , IS 73, New Delhi, India: Bureau of Indian Standards; (2004) Polymer and Rubber Modified Bitumen Specifications, , IS 15462, New Delhi, India: Bureau of Indian Standards; Kandhal, P.S., (1992) Moisture Susceptibility of HMA Mixes: Identification of Problem and Recommended Solutions, p. 11; Kennedy, T.W., Roberts, F.L., Lee, K.W., Evaluation of moisture susceptibility of asphalt mixtures using the texas freezethaw pedestal test (1982) Association of Asphalt Technologists, 51, pp. 327-341; Kumar, P., Chandra, S., Bose, S., Strength characteristics of polymer modified mixes (2006) International Journal of Pavement Engineering, 7 (1), pp. 63-71; Pan, C.L., White, T., (1999) Conditions for Stripping Using Accelerated Testing, p. 32; Peter, E.S., (2007) Comparison of Lime and Liquid Additives on the Moisture Damage of Hot Mix Asphalt Mixtures, p. 17. , Reno, Nevada.

Various annular passage configurations have been used in the reviewed studies, namely circular, ellipse, rectangular, square, triangular, and rhombic annular channels with different fluid and boundary conditions. The effect of eccentricity in both horizontal and vertical directions on heat transfer rate in most numerical and experimental investigations for horizontal and vertical annular passages is studied. The effects of heater length, as well as the Darcy, Prandtl, Reynolds, Grashof and Rayleigh numbers on heat transfer in concentric and eccentric annular passages are also investigated. In case of rotating the inner, outer or both cylinders of the annular cylinder arrangement, the generated secondary flow influences the heat transfer to fluid flow in an annular passage. The effect of nanofluid on the increased enhancement of heat transfer in an annular channel is presented. Related studies on curved, covered annular channels showed augmented heat transfer rate in comparison with straight annular channels. In this review, a good agreement is evident between experimental and numerical data, which could help researchers design thermal systems supported by annular passages with the goal of retarding energy consumption by equipment and machineries in applications that could ultimately contribute to appeasing the global energy crisis. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.Coaxial cylinders; Concentric annulus; Eccentric annulus; Horizontal annular enclosure; Vertical annular enclosureCylinders (shapes); Enclosures; Energy policy; Energy utilization; Flow of fluids; Geometry; Heat transfer; Machine design; Machinery; Nanofluidics; Specific heat; Augmented heat transfers; Coaxial cylinders; Concentric annuli; Eccentric annuli; Effect of eccentricities; Enhancement of heat transfer; Experimental investigations; Thermal Performance; Heating equipmentUniversiti Malaya, UMThe authors gratefully acknowledge High Impact Research Grant UM.C/HIR/ MOHE/ENG/46, UMRG RP012D-13AET , and University of Malaya, Malaysia for support to conduct this research work.Warren, R.M., James, H.P., Young, C.I., (1998) Hand Book of Heat Transfer, Third Edition, , McGraw-Hill Education New York 1344 pages; Taylor, G.I., Distribution of velocity and temperature between concentric rotating cylinders (1935) Proc R Soc Lond ser, 151 A, pp. 494-518; Dufinescz, M., Marcus, P., (1938) Heat Transfer Coefficients in Annular Spaces, , (M.Sc. thesis) Carnegie Institute of Technology Pittsburgh, PA; Zerban, A.H., (1940) Clarification of Heat Transfer Characteristics of Fluids in Annular Passage, , (Ph.D. thesis) University of Michigan Ann Arbor, MI; Foust, A.S., Christian, G.A., Non-boiling heat transfer coefficients in annuli (1940) Am Inst Chem Eng, 36. , (541-13); Jakob, M., Rees, K.A., Heat transfer to a fluid in laminar flow through an annular space (1941) Trans Am Inst Chem Eng, 37, pp. 619-629; (1941) Standards of Tubular Exchanger Manufactures Association, , 1st ed.

In this study, Nitrogen-doped graphene (NDG) nanofluids, with varying concentrations of nanoparticles (0.01, 0.02, 0.04, and 0.06 wt%) were prepared using the two-step method in a 0.025 wt% Triton X-100 (as a surfactant) aqueous solution as a base. Stability, zeta potential, thermal conductivity, viscosity, specific heat, and electrical conductivity of nanofluids containing NDG particles were studied. The stability of the nanofluids was investigated by UV-vis over a time span of 6 months and concentrations remain relatively constant while the maximum relative concentration reduction was 20 %. The thermal conductivity of nanofluids was increased with the particle concentration and temperature, while the maximum enhancement was about 36.78 % for a nanoparticle loading of 0.06 wt%. These experimental results compared with some theoretical models including Maxwell and Nan's models and observed a good agreement between Nan's model and the experimental results. Study of the rheological properties of NDG nanofluids reveals that it followed the Newtonian behaviors, where viscosity decreased linearly with the rise of temperature. It has been observed that the specific heat of NDG nanofluid reduced gradually with the increase of concentration of nanoparticles and temperature. The electrical conductivity of the NDG nanofluids enhanced significantly due to the dispersion of NDG in the base fluid. This novel type of fluids demonstrates an outstanding potential for use as innovative heat transfer fluids in medium-temperature systems such as solar collectors. © 2014 Springer Science+Business Media New York.Doping (additives);

The combination of the high catalytic activity of PANI and outstanding conductivity of GNS/MWCNT improved the photovoltaic performance of the hybrid CE. The cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) showed that the GNS/MWCNT/PANI composite has high catalytic activity for the reduction of triiodide to iodide and low charge-transfer resistance at the electrolyte/electrode interface. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images showed that the GNS/MWCNT/PANI-CE has a rough and porous structure and X-ray diffraction analysis confirmed the formation of PANI coating on the surface of the GNS/CNT. In particular, current-voltage measurements showed the superior power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 7.52% of the DSSC based on GNS/MWCNT/PANI-CE compared to the PCE of 6.69% of the DSSC based on Pt-CE. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.Carbon nanotubes; Counter electrode; Dye-sensitized solar cells; Graphene nanosheet; PolyanilineCarbon nanotubes; Catalyst activity; Coatings; Cyclic voltammetry; Dye-sensitized solar cells; Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy; Electrodes; Graphene; Nanosheets; Polyaniline; Transmission electron microscopy; X ray diffraction analysis; Polyaniline; Charge transfer resistance; Counter electrodes; Current-voltage measurements; Dye-Sensitized solar cell; Graphene nanosheets; In-situ polymerization; Photovoltaic performance; Power conversion efficiencies; Solar cells; Carbon nanotubesNational Natural Science Foundation of China, NSFC: 11204093, 11304106, 11374110, 51371085; National Basic Research Program of China (973 Program): 2011CB933300; Fundamental Research Funds for the Central Universities: 2012QN114, 2013TS033This work was supported by the National Basic Research Program (2011CB933300) of China, the National Natural Science Foundation of China (11374110, 11204093, 51371085, 11304106), and ‘the Fundamental Research Funds for the Central Universities’, HUST: 2012QN114, 2013TS033.Wang, H., Hang Hu, Y., Graphene as a counter electrode material for dye-sensitized solar cells (2012) Energy Environ.

Carrier density pulsation (CDP), carrier heating (CH), and spectral hole burning (SHB) contributions on FWM efficiency are discussed. Effect of QD ground state and wetting layer are included. An additional parameter appears in the gain integral relation of QD SOAs. An equation formulating pulses in the QD SOAs is introduced. We have found that FWM in QD SOAs is detuning and is pulse width dependent. For short pulses, CH is dominant at high detunings (10-100 GHz) while at higher detunings (>100 GHz) the SHB is the dominant one. Undesired paunch behavior is shown in QD SOAs then, CDP must be reduced. © 2014 Elsevier B.V.

To understand how the effect of temperature changes the layers surface, the surface topography was characterized through atomic force microscopy (AFM) and fractal analysis. Pt Schottky contacts grown on nanostructure Al0.08In0.08Ga0.84N thin film grown by molecular beam epitaxy technique on sapphire substrate at annealing temperatures range of 300-500 °C were used. AFM analysis was performed in contact mode, on square areas of 10 × 10 μm2, by using a Nanosurf Easyscan 2 AFM system. Detailed surface characterization of the surface topography was obtained using statistical parameters of 3D surface roughness, according with ISO 25178-2: 2012, provided by the AFM software. The results revealed that the high quality Schottky contact with the Schottky barrier heights and ideality factor of 0.76 and 1.03 respectively can be obtained under 30 min annealing at 400 °C in N2 ambience. The surface roughness of Pt Schottky contacts on quaternary n-Al0.08In 0.08Ga0.84N thin film revealed a fractal structure at nanometer scale. Results obtained by fractal analysis confirm the relationship between the value of the fractal dimension and the statistical surface roughness parameters. AFM and fractal analysis are accurate tools that may assist manufacturers in developing Pt Schottky contacts on quaternary n-Al 0.08In0.08Ga0.84N thin film with optimal surface characteristics and provides different yet complementary information to that offered by traditional surface statistical parameters. © Springer Science+Business Media New York 2013.3D surface roughness; Annealing temperatures; Effect of temperature; Schottky barrier heights; Statistical parameters; Surface characteristics; Surface characterization; Surface roughness parameters; Aluminum; Atomic force microscopy; Fractal dimension; Gallium; Molecular beam epitaxy; Platinum; Sapphire; Surface roughness; Thin films; Gallium alloysHospital Universiti Sains Malaysia, HUSM: 1001/PFIZIK/843088Acknowledgments The authors would like to thank Universiti Sains Malaysia USM, 11800 Penang, Malaysia for the financial support under 1001/PFIZIK/843088 grant and Science College, Thi-Qar University, Al-Muntazah, Nassiriya 00964, Iraq to conduct this research.

Since the pump power is much larger than the other pulses, this makes the differential equation of pump not coupled with the other equations, hence it can be solved alone. In this paper, we consider that the differential equation of pump is linear by assuming that the amplifier is divided into small sections to be the power change through each section is too small. Solving the resulting pump equation requires calculating the integrated gain, where the integrated gain is calculated after each section numerically by an iterative equation that was derived. Simultaneously, the solution of the probe and conjugate equations were also calculated after each section, where a simple recursive formula was found. Finally, the conversion efficiency will be calculated, where the present analysis agrees very well with the numerical solution. © 2013 King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals.Conversion efficiency; FWM; SOAScollo, R., Lohe, H., Robin, F., Erni, D., Gini, E., Jäckel, H., Modelocked InP-based laser diode with a mmonolithic integrated UTC absorber for subpicosecond pulse generation (2009) IEEE J.

Simulation results indicated that by increasing In composition of the InxGa1-xN waveguide layers, the threshold current decreases, the slope efficiency, and differential quantum efficiency (DQE) increase, whereas the output power decreases. The increase in the In composition of the InGaN waveguide layers increases the refractive index and consequently increases the optical confinement factor (OCF) which result in the increase in the slope efficiency and DQE and the decrease in the threshold current. The decreasing movement of electron and hole carriers from the bulk waveguide layers to the active regions also causes to decrease the output power. A new LD structure with InGaN/GaN superlattice (SL) waveguide layers has been proposed to exploit the increased OCF of InGaN waveguide structures, and the enhanced electron and hole mobilities and the tunneling effect of the periodic structure of the SL structures. The results also showed that the use of InGaN/GaN SL waveguide structures effectively improves the output power, slope efficiency and DQE and decreases the threshold current of the LD compared with (In)GaN bulk waveguide structure. © 2013 Elsevier GmbH.Deep violet InGaN DQW LD; Numerical simulation; Optical confinement factor; Superlattice; Waveguide layersDeep violet InGaN DQW LD; Differential quantum efficiency; Double quantum well lasers; Emission wavelength; Optical confinement factors; Performance characteristics; Superlattice waveguides; Waveguide layers; Computer simulation; Efficiency; Gallium nitride; Refractive index; Semiconductor quantum wells; Superlattices; Waveguide components; IndiumUniversiti Sains MalaysiaThe support from RU grant and Universiti Sains Malaysia is gratefully acknowledged.Alahyarizadeh, Gh., Hassan, Z., Thahab, S.M., Ghazai, A.J., Mahmodi, H., Performance enhancement of deep violet InGaN DQW lasers using delta barrier close to electron blocking layer (2012) J.

Enteritidis isolates, 28 from poultry houses and 32 from clinical samples, were isolated during 2010. These isolates were subjected to testing and analyzed for antibiotic resistance, virulence genes, plasmids and plasmid replicon types. To assess genetic diversity, pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) fingerprinting, using the XbaI restriction enzyme, Multiple-Locus Variable-Number Tandem Repeat Analysis (MLVA) and plasmid profiles were performed. All isolates from poultry, and 10 out of 32 clinical isolates were sensitive to ampicillin, chloramphenicol, gentamicin, kanamycin, nalidixic acid, sulfisoxazole, streptomycin, and tetracycline. Twenty-one of thirty-two clinical isolates were resistant to ampicillin and tetracycline, and one isolate was resistant to nalidixic acid. PFGE typing of sixty ser. Enteritidis isolates by XbaI resulted in 10-12 bands and grouped into six clusters each with similarity from 95% to 81%. The MLVA analysis of sixty isolates gave 18 allele profiles with the majority of isolates displayed in three groups, and two clinical isolates found to be new in the PulseNet national MLVA database. All isolates were positive for 12 or more of the 17 virulence genes mostly found in S.enterica (spvB, spiA, pagC, msgA, invA, sipB, prgH, spaN, orgA, tolC, iroN, sitC, IpfC, sifA, sopB, and pefA) and negative for one gene (cdtB). All isolates carried a typical 58kb plasmid, type Inc/FIIA. Three poultry isolates and one clinical isolate carried small plasmids with 3.8, 6, 7.6 and 11.5kb. Ten of the clinical isolates carried plasmids, with sizes 36 and 38kb, types IncL/M and IncN, and one isolate carried an 81kb plasmid, type IncI. Southern hybridization of a plasmid with an Inc/FIIA gene probe hybridized one large 58kb plasmid in all isolates. Several large and small plasmids from poultry isolates were not typed by our PCR-based method. These results confirmed that PFGE fingerprinting has limited discriminatory power for ser. Enteritidis in both poultry and clinical sources. However, the plasmid and MLVA allele profiles were a useful and important epidemiology tool to discriminate outbreak strains of ser. Enteritidis from poultry and clinical samples. © 2013.MLVA; Plasmid; Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis; Salmonella Enteritidisantiinfective agent; bacterial protein; virulence factor; animal; animal husbandry; animal salmonellosis; article; bird disease; classification; drug effect; equipment; genetics; human; isolation and purification; microbial sensitivity test; microbiology; MLVA; multidrug resistance; phylogeny; plasmid; poultry; Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis; Salmonella enteritidis; salmonellosis; MLVA; Plasmid; Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis; Salmonella Enteritidis; Animal Husbandry; Animals; Anti-Bacterial Agents; Bacterial Proteins; Drug Resistance, Multiple, Bacterial; Humans; Microbial Sensitivity Tests; Phylogeny; Poultry; Poultry Diseases; Salmonella enteritidis; Salmonella Infections; Salmonella Infections, Animal; Virulence FactorsAbdullah, K., Bedir, O., Kocak, N., Levent, B., Eyigun, C., Tekbas, O., Gorenek, L., Basustaoglu, A., Analysis of an outbreak of Salmonella Enteritidis by repetitive sequence based PCR and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (2010) Inter.

This method improves the convergence of the series solution in the n HAM which was proposed in (see Hassan and El-Tawil 2011, 2012). The proposed method provides an approximate solution by rewriting the n th-order nonlinear differential equation in the form of n first-order differential equations. The solution of these n differential equations is obtained as a power series solution. This scheme is tested on two nonlinear exactly solvable differential equations. The results demonstrate the reliability and efficiency of the algorithm developed. © 2013 Shaheed N. Huseen and Said R.

The finite volume method was used to solve the corresponding continuity, momentum, and energy equations using the K -ε model. Three cases, corresponding to three different step heights, were investigated for Reynolds numbers ranging from 30,000 to 100,000 and temperatures ranging from 313 to 343 K. The bottom of the wall was heated, whereas the top was insulated. The results show that the Nusselt number increased with the Reynolds number and step height. The maximum Nusselt number was observed for case 3, with a Reynolds number of 100,000 and temperature of 343 K, occurring at the second step. The behavior of the Nusselt number was similar for all cases at a given Reynolds number and temperature. A recirculation zone was observed before and after the first and second steps in the contour maps of the velocity field. In addition, the results indicate that the coefficient pressure increased with increasing Reynolds number and step height. ANSYS FLUENT 14 (CFD) software was employed to run the simulations. © 2013 Hussein Togun et al.CFD simulations; Contour map; Energy equation; Recirculation zones; Step height; Turbulent fluid flow; Turbulent water flow;

Inspired by the abovementioned structures, a new LD structure with a quaternary AlInGaN MQB EBL has been proposed to improve the performance characteristics of the deep violet InGaN DQW LDs. Simulation results indicated that the LD structure with the quaternary AlInGaN MQB EBL present the highest output power, slope efficiency and differential quantum efficiency (DQE) and lowest threshold current compared with the above mentioned structures. They also indicated that choosing an appropriate aluminum (Al) and indium (In) composition in the quaternary AlInGaN MQB layers could control both piezoelectric and spontaneous polarizations. It will decrease the electron overflow from the active region to p-side and increased the contribution of electron and hole carriers to the radiative recombination effectively. Enhancing radiative recombination in the well using the quaternary AlInGaN MQB EBL also increased the optical output power and optical intensity. © 2013 Elsevier GmbH.

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of gum arabic on the antioxidant activity, physicochemical properties, sensory quality and microbial analysis of papaya fruits. Gum Arabic in aqueous solutions of 5% and 10% was applied as edible coating to green-mature papaya and stored at 13°C±1 for 15 days. The result of the study showed that papaya fruits coated with 10% GA and stored for 7 days had significantly (P<0.05) higher antioxidant capacity (TPC, TFC, FRAP, DPPH and ABTS) and sensory evaluation than the sample control or other treated fruits. In general GA affected significantly (P<0.05) the physicochemical properties (color, pH, TA, moisture and TSS) in papaya fruit at different concentrations with storage days the highest values were recorded in sample control (untreated) and the lowest values in GA10% and GA5%. In addition, the 10% concentration depicted a significant (P<0.05) decrease microbial records when stored with 10% GA. The results suggested that gum Arabic 10% preservative material, could delay the ripening process by inhibiting the respiration rate in the papaya fruit and improves the postharvest quality during cold storage.Antioxidant activity; Edible coatings; Papaya; Postharvest qualitycitric acid; flavonoid; gum arabic; malic acid; phenol derivative; antioxidant activity; article; controlled study; cryopreservation; food quality; fruit color; fruit flavour; fruit pulp colour; fruit sourness; fruit storage; fruit sweetness; moisture; nonhuman; papaya; pH; physical chemistry; plant parameterscitric acid, 126-44-3, 5949-29-1, 77-92-9, 8002-14-0; gum arabic, 9000-01-5; malic acid, 149-61-1, 6915-15-7Krishna, K., Paridhavi, M., Patel, J.A., Review on nutritional, medicinal and pharmacological properties of papaya (Carica papaya Linn.)

This study has covered two types of QD structures: the two-level QD structure, where the ground state (GS) and wetting layer have been considered; and the three-level QD structure, where the excited state (ES) has been taken into account. The relations for differential gain were also discussed. FWM efficiency and its components, comprising spectral hole burning, carrier heating and carrier density pulsation (CDP), are calculated. The results show that inclusion of ES is essential. At a high carrier density and for a long term frequency, the FWM was found to be detuning independently while it is symmetric for short pulses. Neglecting CH makes the FWM in QD SOAs symmetric and detuning independent, which are desired characteristics for optical communication applications. The results corroborate available experimental observations. The effective capture time of QD is the main parameter and can be ascribed to the differences between the two- and three-level models. © 2013 IOP Publishing Ltd.Carrier density pulsations; Communication application; Differential gain; Pulse propagation; Quantum dot semiconductor optical amplifier; Semiconductor optical amplifier (SOAs); Spectral-hole burning; Three-level models; Carrier concentration; Optical communication; Semiconductor optical amplifiers; Semiconductor quantum dots; Four wave mixingGoldouzian, R., Majles Ara, M.H., Induced focusing due to counter-propagation of a pair of bright and dark optical beams in self-defocusing Kerr media (2011) Optik, 122, pp. 1957-1960. , 10.1016/j.ijleo.2010.12.010; Harel, E., Rupich, S., Schaller, R., Talapin, D., Engel, G., Measurement of electronic splitting in PbS quantum dots by two-dimensional nonlinear spectroscopy (2012) Phys.

Three different shapes related to the micro-channel depth and width is chosen for examination. Silicon, aluminum, and graphene are used as substrate materials for this study. The overall heat sink consisted of an array of rectangular micro-channels. Three different surface heat fluxes and three different volumetric flow rates are used for three cases. Water with non-temperature-dependent thermal properties is used as a coolant for steady-state, fully developed laminar flow in the micro-channels. From a heat transfer (thermal performance) perspective, it is found that graphene most effectively reduce the thermal resistance. Based on these results, graphene was further studied as a substrate material for a micro-channel heat sink. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.Graphene; Micro-channel; Single phase; Thermal resistanceDifferent shapes; Single phase; Substrate material; Surface heat fluxes; Thermal Performance; Volumetric flow rate; Aluminum; Heat resistance; Heat sinks; Heat transfer; Laminar flow; Silicon; Substrates; GrapheneJassim Shkarah, A., Bin Sulaiman, M.Y., Ayob, R.H., Numerical analysis of two phase flow heat transfer in rectangular micro channel heat sink (2012) Arch.

The effects of interface traps, bulk traps and polarization charges are investigated. It was observed that the role and dynamic of traps affect the device performance which requires a precondition to calculate the DC characteristics that are in agreement with the experimental data. On the other hand, polarization charges lead to quantum confinement of the electrons in the channel and form two-dimensional electron gas. The electron quantization leads to increasing the drain current and shift in the threshold voltage. The device performance can be improved by optimizing the fixed interface charge and thus reducing the bulk traps to enhance the DC characteristics. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

Different types of interplanetary (IP) type II bursts have been observed, where the more usual ones show narrow-band and patchy emissions, sometimes with harmonics, and which at intervals may disappear completely from the dynamic spectrum. The more unusual bursts are wide-band and diffuse, show no patches or breaks or harmonic emission, and often have long durations. Type II bursts are thought to be plasma emission, caused by propagating shock waves, but a synchrotron-emitting source has also been proposed as the origin for the wide-band type IIs. Aims. Our aim is to find out where the wide-band IP type II bursts originate and what is their connection to particle acceleration. Methods. We analyzed in detail 25 solar events that produced well-separated, wide-band IP type II bursts in 2001-2011. Their associations to flares, coronal mass ejections (CMEs), and solar energetic particle events (SEPs) were investigated. Results. Of the 25 bursts, 18 were estimated to have heights corresponding to the CME leading fronts, suggesting that they were created by bow shocks ahead of the CMEs. However, seven events were found in which the burst heights were significantly lower and which showed a different type of height-time evolution. Almost all the analyzed wide-band type II bursts were associated with very high-speed CMEs, originating from different parts of the solar hemisphere. In terms of SEP associations, many of the SEP events were weak, had poor connectivity due to the eastern limb source location, or were masked by previous events. Some of the events had precursors in specific energy ranges. These properties and conditions affected the intensity-time profiles and made the injection-time-based associations with the type II bursts difficult to interpret. In several cases where the SEP injection times could be determined, the radio dynamic spectra showed other features (in addition to the wide-band type II bursts) that could be signatures of shock fronts. Conclusions. We conclude that in most cases (in 18 out of 25 events) the wide-band IP type II bursts can be plasma emission, formed at or just above the CME leading edge. The results for the remaining seven events might suggest the possibility of a synchrotron source. These events, however, occurred during periods of high solar activity, and coronal conditions affecting the results of the burst height calculations cannot be ruled out. The observed wide and diffuse emission bands may also indicate specific CME leading edge structures and special shock conditions. © ESO, 2013.Plasmas; Shock waves; Sun: coronal mass ejections (CMEs); Sun: radio radiationCoronal mass ejection; Diffuse emission; Harmonic emissions; Particle acceleration; Solar energetic particle events; Sun: coronal mass ejection; Sun: radio radiation; Synchrotron source; Plasma (human); Shock waves; Solar energy; Solar system; PlasmasBastian, T.S., (2007) ApJ, 665, p. 805; Bougeret, J.-L., Kaiser, M.L., Kellogg, P.J., (1995) Space Sci.

The reactor is a set of anaerobic-anoxic-aerobic (A2/O) bioreactors, developed on the basis of an expended granular sludge blanket (EGSB), granular sequencing batch reactor (GSBR) and intermittent cycle extended aeration system (ICEAS). Leachate was subjected to stripping by agitation process and poly ferric sulfate coagulation as a pretreatment process, in order to reduce both ammonia toxicity to microorganisms and the organic contents. The reactor was operated under three different operating systems, consisting of recycling sludge with air (A2/O), recycling sludge without air (low oxygen) and a combination of both (A2/O and low oxygen). The lowest effluent nutrient levels were realised by the combined system of A2/O and low oxygen, which resulted in effluent of chemical oxygen demand (COD), NH3-N and biological oxygen demand (BOD5) concentrations of 98.20, 13.50 and 22.50 mg/L. The optimal operating conditions for the efficient removal of biological nutrient using the ICUSB reactor were examined to evaluate the influence of the parameters on its performance. The results showed that average removal efficiencies of COD and NH3-N of 96.49% and 99.39%, respectively were achieved under the condition of a hydraulic retention time of 12 hr, including 4 hr of pumping air into the reactor, with dissolved oxygen at an rate of 4 mg/L and an upflow velocity 2 m/hr. These combined processes were successfully employed and effectively decreased pollutant loading. © 2013 The Research Centre for Eco-Environmental Sciences, Chinese Academy of Sciences.Anaerobic-anoxic-aerobic (A2/O) bioreactor;

The electrical stability of the contacts at various annealing temperatures of 400, 500, 600 and 700 C were investigated. Specific contact resistivity was determined using transmission line method (TLM) and current-voltage (I-V) measurements. The results reveal that the bi-layer scheme was sensitive to the change of annealing temperatures and annealing time. The optimal value of specific contact resistivities was obtained at annealing temperature of 600 C for both samples. However, the values of n-type doped sample exhibited better results compared with the undoped sample. © 2013 Elsevier GmbH.AlGaN; Ohmic contact; PA-MBE; TLMAlGaN; Annealing temperatures; Current-voltage measurements; PA-MBE; Plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy; Specific contact resistivity; TLM; Transmission line methods; Aluminum; Electric contactors; Gallium; Gallium alloys; Molecular beam epitaxy; Ohmic contacts; Silicon; Substrates; AnnealingUniversiti Sains MalaysiaFinancial support from Research University (RU) grant, Postgraduate Research Grant Scheme (PRGS) and Universiti Sains Malaysia are gratefully acknowledged.Jain, S., Willander, M., Narayan, J., Overstraeten, R., III-nitrides: Growth, characterization, and properties (2000) J.

This formula will pave the way to develop all information in regard to SOA devices. Wetting layer (WL), excited state (ES), and ground state (GS) of SOAs have been employed to study the effects of important parameters in such these devices. Good results were obtained, since the effective capture time in QD is controlled. In addition, a suitable effective capture time must give a high integrated gain that required for all-optical applications. For the bulk model, the capture time to GS is not formulated well in previous studies therefore, it underestimates QD model. © 2013 Elsevier B.V.

Methods: Alkaloids were extracted from ground nutmeg seed kernels with 10% acetic acid in 95% ethyl alcohol. Visceral pain was induced in male and female BALB/c mice by intraperitoneal injection of 0.6% acetic acid. Analgesic effect of alkaloids (0.5 gram or 1 gram per kilogram [g/kg], by mouth) was assessed by evaluating writhing response. Acute toxicity was tested in response to 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 g/kg of alkaloid extract; the median lethal dose (LD50) was determined by probit analysis. Results: Alkaloid extract at a dose of 1 g/kg significantly reduced the number of writhing responses in female, but not male mice; 0.5 g/kg of alkaloid extract had no effect in either sex. The LD50 was 5.1 g/kg. Signs of abnormal behavior, including hypoactivity, unstable gait, and dizziness were seen in animals given a dose of 4 g/kg or higher; abnormal behavior lasted for several hours after administration of the alkaloids. Conclusion: According to the classification of Loomis and Hayes, M. fragrans seed alkaloids have analgesic activity and are slightly toxic. © 2013 Hayfaa et al, publisher and licensee Dove Medical Press Ltd.Acetic acid; Analgesic; LD50; Mice; Nutmeg; Visceral painacetic acid; alcohol; alkaloid; Myristica fragrans alkaloid; unclassified drug; analgesic activity; animal behavior; animal model; article; controlled study; dizziness; female; gait disorder; LD 50; male; motor dysfunction; mouse; nonhuman; nutmeg; seed kernel; sex difference; toxicity testing; treatment response; visceral painacetic acid, 127-08-2, 127-09-3, 64-19-7, 71-50-1; alcohol, 64-17-5Joseph, J., The nutmeg: Its botany, agronomy, production, composition, and uses (1980) Journal of Plantation Crops, 8 (2), pp. 61-72; Bamidele, O., Akinnuga, A.M., Alagbonsi, I.A., Ojo, O.A., Olorunfemi, J.O., Akuyoma, M.A., Effects of ethanolic extract of Myristica fragrans Houtt.

These hormones guided many biochemical events resulted in hyperglycemia with a decrease in insulin dependent peripheral glucose utilization. Under these conditions, glucose utilization by non-insulin dependent tissues is increased. One of these tissues is central nervous system, since all nervous tissues except ventral hypothalamus do not require the presence of insulin for glucose utilization and metabolism. Increase of brain glucose level subsequently increase synthesis of gamma amino butyric acid (GABA). Elevation of GABA as a result of hyperglycemia, has inhibitory effect on the secretion of brain catecholamines. Therefore, it was expected that the negative feedback mechanism between central GABA and catecholamine represent a resistant mechanism against stress. © IDOSI Publications, 2013.ACTH; Adrenocorticotropin; GABA; Glococorticoids; Hypothalamus; Insulin hormons; NE; Norepinephrine; Pituitary4 aminobutyrate aminotransferase; 4 aminobutyric acid; 4 aminobutyric acid receptor stimulating agent; aminotransferase inhibitor; catecholamine; corticotropin; glucocorticoid; glucose; glutamic acid; growth hormone; hydrocortisone; insulin; iodothyronine; prolactin; protirelin; serotonin; succinic semialdehyde; thyrotropin; thyroxine; amino acid brain level; amino acid synthesis; article; catecholamine release; GABAergic system; glucose brain level; glucose metabolism; glucose utilization; hormone inhibition; human; hyperglycemia; hypothalamus; insulin dependence; mediator release; negative feedback; nonhuman; stress; transamination4 aminobutyrate aminotransferase, 9037-67-6; 4 aminobutyric acid, 28805-76-7, 56-12-2; corticotropin, 11136-52-0, 9002-60-2, 9061-27-2; glucose, 50-99-7, 84778-64-3; glutamic acid, 11070-68-1, 138-15-8, 56-86-0, 6899-05-4; growth hormone, 36992-73-1, 37267-05-3, 66419-50-9, 9002-72-6; hydrocortisone, 50-23-7; insulin, 9004-10-8; iodothyronine, 29354-16-3; prolactin, 12585-34-1, 50647-00-2, 9002-62-4; protirelin, 24305-27-9; serotonin, 50-67-9; succinic semialdehyde, 692-29-5; thyrotropin, 9002-71-5; thyroxine, 7488-70-2Guyton, A.C., Hall, J.E., Textbook of medical physiology 10th edition (2000), pp. 869-883. , W.B.

The measurements are performed on Ti/Al contacts which have been annealed to various temperatures from 400-700 °C with times of 5, 15 and 35 minutes, where the electrical behaviors of each condition are compared. For relatively different annealing temperatures, substantial differences of the SCR values are observed between different duration samples. The changes in the surface morphology after the annealing treatment were examined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The study has resulted in producing contact from the Ti (200 nm)/Al (50 nm) metallization scheme with the lowest specific contact resistivity of ρc= 0.054 ωcm2 after annealing in nitrogen for 10 minutes (cumulated time of 15 minutes) at 400 °C.Annealing temperature; Ohmic contact; Quaternary AlinGaN; SCR; TLMSpecht, P., Ho, J.C., Xu, X., Armitage, R., Weber, E.R., Erni, R., Kisielowski, C., (2005) Solid State Commun, 135, p. 340; Guo, Q.X., Tanaka, T., Nishio, M., Ogawa, H., Pu, X.D., Shen, W.Z., (2005) Appl.

In this paper, we extend the idea to present a recovery-based a posterior error estimator for finite volume methods which employ the nonconforming linear trial functions to approximate elliptic interface problems. The method recovers the flux and gradient in H(div) and H(curl) conforming finite element spaces with a weighted L2 projection, respectively. The reliability and efficiency bounds are established. Numerical experiments are given to support the conclusions. © 2013 Published by Elsevier Inc.

However, oxygen vacancies, which are inevitable donor defects mobile under bias at room temperature, lead to undesirable leakage current in SrTiO3 thin films. Epitaxially grown SrTiO3 on lattice mismatched substrates leads to strained SrTiO3, inducing structural phase transitions from a cubosymmetric non-ferroelectric geometry to tetragonal and orthorhombic structures, depending upon the sign of the strain. In this study, density functional calculations have been performed to determine the impact of isotropic biaxial tensile strain in a (001) plane upon the phase of SrTiO3 and the activation energy for the migration of oxygen vacancies in such strained SrTiO3. The phase transition of the host material yields anisotropy in oxygen vacancy diffusion for diffusion within and between planes parallel to the strain. We found a general reduction in the barrier for diffusion within and normal to the plane of tensile strain. The inter-plane diffusion barrier reduces up to 25% at high values of strain. The variation in the barrier corresponding to in-plane diffusion is smaller in comparison to inter-plane diffusion. Finally, we reflect upon how the interplay between lattice strain with native defects plays a crucial role in the conduction mechanism of thin film, strained SrTiO3. © 2013 AIP Publishing LLC.Biaxial tensile strain; Conduction Mechanism; Density functional theory calculations; Device application; Lattice-mismatched substrates; Orthorhombic structures; Oxygen vacancy migration; Structural phase transition; Activation energy; Defects; Density functional theory; Dielectric materials; Diffusion barriers; Gate dielectrics; Oxygen vacancies; Tensile strain; Thin films; Strontium titanatesNalwa, S.H., (1999) Handbook of Low and High Dielectric Constant Materials and Their Application, , Academic Press, San Diego; Wu, W., Wong, K.H., Choy, C.L., (2000) Thin Solid Films, 360, p. 103. , 10.1016/S0040-6090(99)01091-3; Eisenbeiser, K., Finder, J.M., Yu, Z., Ramdani, J., Curless, J.A., Hallmark, J.A., Droopad, R., Overgaard, C.D., (2000) Appl.

To assess the genetic diversity, pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) fingerprinting and plasmid profiles were performed. All of the isolates were sensitive to chloramphenicol, nalidixic acid, and sulfisoxazole, and four isolates showed intermediate resistance to gentamicin or kanamycin. Eleven isolates, including representatives from each of the source types, were resistant to ampicillin. Four isolates from either clinical or environmental sources were resistant to tetracycline, while an additional 20 isolates showed intermediate resistance to this drug. Fourteen isolates, primarily from food sources, showed intermediate resistance to streptomycin. The S. Javiana isolates were screened by PCR for 17 virulence genes (spvB, spiA, pagC, msgA, invA, sipB, prgH, spaN, orgA, tolC, iroN, sitC, IpfC, sifA, sopB, cdtB, and pefA). All isolates were positive for nine to fourteen of these genes, but none were positive for pefA, spvB and lpfC, which are typically present on the Salmonella virulence plasmid. Seven of the virulence genes including cdtB were found in all 50 isolates, suggesting that S. Javiana from food and environmental sources had virulence similar to clinical isolates. Four clinical isolates and two food isolates carried one or more plasmids of approximately 30, 38, and 58. kb, with the 58. kb plasmids belonging to incompatibility group IncFIIA. Two clinical isolates carried IncI1 type mega plasmid (80. kb), and one clinical isolate carried plasmids of 4.5 and 7. kb. The PFGE profiles resulted 34 patterns in five clusters at a 90% similarity threshold. Our results indicate that S. Javiana isolates have a diverse clonal population among the clinical, food and environmental samples and this serotype possesses several virulent genes and plasmids that can contribute to the development of salmonellosis in human. This study provides data that support the potential transmission of S. Javiana virulence factors from food and environmental sources to cause infections in humans. © 2013.Antibiotic susceptibility; Plasmids; Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis fingerprinting; Salmonella Javiana; Virulence genesampicillin; bacterial protein; chloramphenicol; gentamicin; kanamycin; nalidixic acid; protein cdtb; protein inva; protein lpfc; protein msga; protein orga; protein pagc; protein prgh; protein sifa; protein sipb; protein sitc; protein sopb; protein spia; protein spvb; sulfafurazole; tetracycline; unclassified drug; antibiotic resistance; antibiotic sensitivity; article; bacterial gene; bacterial transmission; bacterial virulence; bacterium isolate; controlled study; environment; food; genetic variability; nonhuman; polymerase chain reaction; pulsed field gel electrophoresis; replicon; Salmonella enterica; serotype; Salmonella; Salmonella enterica; Salmonella javianaampicillin, 69-52-3, 69-53-4, 7177-48-2, 74083-13-9, 94586-58-0; chloramphenicol, 134-90-7, 2787-09-9, 56-75-7; gentamicin, 1392-48-9, 1403-66-3, 1405-41-0; kanamycin, 11025-66-4, 61230-38-4, 8063-07-8; nalidixic acid, 389-08-2; sulfafurazole, 127-69-5; tetracycline, 23843-90-5, 60-54-8, 64-75-5, 8021-86-1Akiyama, T., Khan, A.A., Cheng, C.M., Stefanova, R., Molecular characterization of Salmonella enterica serovar Saintpaul isolated from imported seafood, pepper, environmental and clinical samples (2011) Food Microbiology, 28, pp. 1124-1128; Angulo, F., Nargund, V., Chiller, T., Evidence of an association between use of anti-microbial agents in food animals and anti-microbial resistance among bacteria isolated from humans and the human health consequences of such resistance (2004) Journal of Veterinary Medicine.

Also, relations for differential gain, gain integral, and nonlinear susceptibility of both pump, probe, and signal pulses were discussed. Gain and differential gain have been calculated for QD structure. FWM efficiency and its components [spectral hole burning (SHB), carrier heating, and carrier density pulsation] are calculated. It is found that inclusion of ES in the formulas and in the calculations is essential since it works as a carrier reservoir for GS.

The three-fluid collisionless electromagnetic model is considered and the reductive perturbation method is employed to derive the Korteweg-de Vries equation for MASWs in PIE plasmas. It is found that the system under consideration admits compressive solitary structures. The effects of magnetic field intensity, plasma number density and negative ions concentration on MASWs are studied. This study may have relevance to nonlinear wave formation and the propagation of pair ion plasmas containing impurities. © 2013 The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.Electromagnetic models; Magnetic-field intensity; Nonlinear properties; Nonlinear waves; Number density; Pair-ion plasma; Reductive perturbation methods; Solitary structures; Ions; Nonlinear equations; Solitons; Collisionless plasmasZank, G.P., Greaves, R.G., (1995) Phys.

Three systems are discussed: open-loop, closed-loop and mutual-coupling. For each case, both generalized and complete synchronization are discussed. Additionally, optically injected QD laser systems are also discussed. Two QD lasers with the same and different parameters are used. Best synchronization is obtained for the cases of open-loop and injected systems. Electron and hole occupations in the QD ground and excited states are contributes in the chaotic behavior. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.

The SST k-ω turbulence Model with finite volume method was employed in simulation. The adopted boundary condition considered step heights of ribs varied from 2.5mm to 10mm with pitch ratio different from 2.5 to 40 and flow Reynolds number between 10000 to 25000 at constant surface temperature. The computational results showed recirculation region after each ribs which effect on performance of heat transfer rate. Increase of Reynolds number and number of ribs leads to increase in heat transfer coefficient. Step height and pitch ratio of ribs increase local heat transfer coefficient along the channel. This simulation has been done by ANSYS 14 FLUENT. © 2013 IEEE.Enhancement heat transfer; Recirculation flow; Ribs conduit; Turbulent flowComputational fluid dynamics; Finite volume method; Flow of fluids; Heat transfer coefficients; Oceanography; Optical properties; Reynolds number; Turbulence models; Turbulent flow; Computational results; Constant surface temperatures; K-Omega turbulence model; Local heat transfer coefficient; Re-circulation flow; Recirculation regions; Ribs conduit; Turbulent heat transfer; Heat transfer performanceHan, J.C., Zhang, Y.M., Lee, C.P., Augmented heat transfer in square channels with parallel, crossed and V-shaped angled ribs (1991) ASME, Journal of Heat Transfer, 113, pp. 590-596; Han, J.C., Zhang, Y.M., High Performance Heat Transfer Ducts with Parallel Broken and V-shaped Broken Ribs (1992) International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer, 35, pp. 513-523; Liou, T.M., Hwang, J.J., Chen, S.H., Simulation and measurement of enhanced turbulent heat transfer in a channel with periodic ribs on one principal wall (1993) Int.

The centralization of the Iraqi government leads to weak decision making because the decisions made by the central government are based on general situations. Hence, the Iraqi government should shift from a centralized government to a decentralized government. This paper proposes an e-government Structure based on decentralization instead of centralization. The proposed e-government Structure will provide improved e-services and increase the interaction and electronic information sharing among the central government, citizens, government agencies, and businesses. This study will help the government distribute responsibilities and become adaptable, thus enhancing planning, leadership, communication, and decision making. © 2013 IEEE.Centralization; Decentralization; E-governmentDecision making; E-learning; Central government; Centralization; Decentralization; Decentralized government; e-Government; Electronic information; General situation; Government agencies; Government data processingAl-Rubaie, K.H., (2011) Governorates That Are Not Organized in A Region between the Central and Administrative Decentralization, 2 (2), pp. 60-75. , http://www.iasj.net/iasj?func=fulltext&aId=60767; Said, M.M., Centralization and decentralization in Iraq and future prospects (2011) Journal of the Planner and Development, 24, pp. 99-108. , http://www.iasj.net/iasj?func=fulltext&aId=25865; Salman, F.H., Ali, F.K., Administrative decentralization in Iraq (2012) Journal: Alrafidain of Law, 55, pp. 294-344. , http://www.iasj.net/iasj?func=fulltext&aId=71141; Said, M.M., Centralization and decentralization in Iraq and future prospects (2011) Journal of the Planner and Development, 24, pp. 99-108. , http://www.iasj.net/iasj?func=fulltext&aId=25865; Mohammed, F.Y., Administrative decision-making strategies concepts-theories factors affecting Journal of Educational and Psychological Researches, 36, pp. 21-57. , http://www.iasj.net/iasj?func=fulltext&aId=73806; Al-Zobaidy, H.T., Towards a policy of central planning in Iraq (2007) Journal of the Planner and Development, (16), pp. 54-66. , http://www.iasj.net/iasj?func=fulltext&aId=4484; Said, M.M., Centralization and decentralization in Iraq and future prospects (2011) Journal of the Planner and Development, (24), pp. 99-108. , http://www.iasj.net/iasj?func=fulltext&aId=25865; Ghaidan, E.S., (2012) Regional Administrative Decentralization in Iraq-A Study in Overlapping Jurisdiction and Control, pp. 20-49. , http://www.iasj.net/iasj?func=fulltext&aId=61316; Shah, A., Decentralization in Iraq challenges and solutions for the federal and local governments (2011) International Conference on Decentralization, Local Governance and Service Delivery: Sharing Experience and Sustaining Progress in Urban Iraq, Amman, , Jordan; Sujarwoto, Nugroho, Y., Decentralizatio and government online networking in Indonesia (2011) CDI Doctoral Working Papers, , University of Manchester; (2008) Future of e-government, , http://www.oecd.org/governance/eleaders/43340370.pdf, OECD; Chun, S.A., Luna-Reyes, L.F., Sandoval-Almazán, R., Collaborative egovernment (2012) Transforming Government: People, Process and Policy, 6 (1), pp. 5-12; (2012) National e-Governance Action Plan, , http://www.egov.gov.iq/egoviraq/index.jsp?sid=1&id=362&pid=332&lng=ar, E-Iraq.

Nowadays, there is not an accurate mathematical formula that describes the pulse shape in the presence of these effects. In this work, a theoretical study is introduced to derive a generalized formula. This formula is exactly approached to mathematical relations used in their special cases. The presence of second-order PMD (SOPMD) will not affect the orthogonality property between the principal states of polarization. The simulation results explain that the interaction of the SOPMD components with the conventional effects (chromatic dispersion and chirp) will cause a broadening/narrowing and shape distortion. This changes depend on the specified values of SOPMD components as well as the present conventional parameters. © 2013 Hassan Abid Yasser and Nizar Salim Shnan.Light transmission; Polarization mode dispersion; Single mode fibers; Mathematical formulas; Mathematical relation; Orthogonality properties; Polarization mode dispersion(PMD); Principal states of polarization; Pulse propagation; Shape distortions; Theoretical study; Chromatic dispersionAgrawal, G.P., (2005) Lightwave Technology, , Wiley Interscience; Poole, C.D., Wagner, R.E., Phenomenological approach to polarization dispersion in long single-mode fibers (1986) Electronics Letters, 22 (19), pp. 1029-1030; Elbers, J., Glingener, C., Duser, M., Voges, E., Modeling of polarization mode dispersion in single mode fibers (1997) Electronics Letters, 33 (22), pp. 662-664; Foschini, G.J., Nelson, L.E., Jopson, R.M., Kogelnik, H., Probability densities of second-order polarization mode dispersion including polarization dependent chromatic fiber dispersion (2000) IEEE Photonics Technology Letters, 12 (3), pp. 293-295. , DOI 10.1109/68.826918; Foschini, G.J., Poole, C.D., Statistical theory of polarization dispersion in single mode fibers (1991) Journal of Lightwave Technology, 9 (11), pp. 1439-1456. , 2-s2.0-0026259532 10.1109/50.97630; Foschini, G.J., Nelson, L.E., Jopson, R.M., Kogelnik, H., Statistics of second-order PMD depolarization (2001) Journal of Lightwave Technology, 19 (12), pp. 1882-1886. , DOI 10.1109/50.971680, PII S073387240109987X; Sunnerud, H., Karlsson, M., Xie, C., Andrekson, P.A., Polarization-mode dispersion in high-speed fiber-optic transmission systems (2002) Journal of Lightwave Technology, 20 (12), pp. 2204-2219. , 2-s2.0-0037005324 10.1109/JLT.2002.806765; Chertkov, M., Gabitov, I., Kolokolov, I., Schäfer, T., Periodic compensation of polarization mode dispersion (2004) Journal of the Optical Society of America B, 21 (3), pp. 486-498. , 2-s2.0-10044227390 10.1364/JOSAB.21.000486; Lin, Q., Agrawal, G.P., Correlation theory of polarization mode dispersion in optical fibers (2003) Journal of the Optical Society of America B, 20 (2), pp. 292-301. , 2-s2.0-0038513552; Kogelnik, H., Jopson, R.M., Kaminov, I.P., Li, T., Polarization mode dispersion (2002) Optical Fiber Telecommunications, 4, pp. 725-861. , San Diego, Calif, USA Academic Press; Marcuse, D., Menyuk, C.R., Wai, P.K.A., Application of the Manakov-PMD equation to studies of signal propagation in optical fibers with randomly varying birefringence (1997) Journal of Lightwave Technology, 15 (9), pp. 1735-1746. , 2-s2.0-0031237848 10.1109/50.622902; Francia, C., Bruyere, F., Penninckx, D., Chbat, M., PMD second-order effects on pulse propagation in single-mode optical fibers (1998) IEEE Photonics Technology Letters, 10 (12), pp. 1739-1741. , PII S104111359808776X; Eyal, A., Marshall, W.K., Tur, M., Yariv, A., Representation of second-order polarisation mode dispersion (1999) Electronics Letters, 35 (19), pp. 1658-1659. , 2-s2.0-0032663532 10.1049/el:19991136; Derickson, D., (1997) Fiber Optic Test and Measurement, , Hewlett-Packard; Azzam, R., Bashara, N., (1989) Ellipsometry and Polarized Light, , Amsterdam, The Netherlands Elsevier; Gordon, J.P., Kogelnik, H., PMD fundamentals: Polarization mode dispersion in optical fibers (2000) Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 97 (9), pp. 4541-4550. , DOI 10.1073/pnas.97.9.4541Yasser, H.A.; Department of Physics, , Nassyria, Thi-Qar, Iraq; email: hahmha@yahoo.comHindawi Publishing Corporation16879384EnglishInt.

The processes consist of air stripping coupled with agitation as a modified of ammonia stripping followed by coagulation-flocculation processes. The main aims of these processes are reducing a concentration of NH 3-N and organic matter as well as enhancing the biodegradability of landfill leachate. Ammonia stripped by the airflow rate of 10 L min-1 at pH 11 for 3 h, while the agitation process applied to air stripping effluent for 2 h at the pH of 11.5 in 150 s-1 gradient velocity. NH 3-N was removed at 96 % as removal ratio by the modified ammonia stripping in 5 h stripping time. Ferric sulfate, poly ferric sulfate and aluminum poly chloride was tested as a coagulant material in the coagulation process. Chemical oxygen demand (COD), suspended solids (SS), turbidity as well as the sludge ratios were discovered for each material operated under optimum condition of pH and dosage. The overall removal of NH3-N, COD, biochemical oxygen demand, total organic carbon, and SS obtained by these processes were 96.5, 71.5, 56.5, 48.5, and 96.5 %, respectively, at the corresponding biodegradable ratio was modified from 0.20 to 0.31. © 2013 Springer-Verlag.Ammonia stripping; Coagulation; Flocculation; Landfill leachate; PretreatmentAir; Aluminum chloride; Aluminum compounds; Ammonia; Biochemical oxygen demand; Biodegradability; Chlorine compounds; Coagulation; Effluents; Flocculation; Iron compounds; Leachate treatment; Organic carbon; Ostwald ripening; Oxygen; Sulfur compounds; Ammonia stripping; Coagulant materials; Coagulation-flocculation process; Combination process; Landfill leachates; Poly ferric sulfates; Pre-Treatment; Total Organic Carbon; Stripping (removal)Aguilar, M.I., Liorens, M., Soler, A., Ortuno, J.F., Nutrient removal and sludge production in the coagulation-flocculation process (2002) Water Res, 36, pp. 2910-2919; Amokrane, A., Comel, C., Veron, J., Landfill leachates pretreatment by coagulation-flocculation (1997) Water Res, 31, pp. 2775-2782; (2005) Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater, , APHA 21st edn.

The good structural properties of the ZnO thin film on the Si substrate was confirmed via high resolution X-ray diffraction (HRXRD) and by scanning electron microscopy. The photoluminescence (PL) emission study included the optical properties of the ZnO film, and two PL peaks at 371 and 530 nm UV and visible regions were observed. A high oxidation current of 24.6 μM + 1.33 μA was applied at n = 5 of 10 mM H2O on sputtering Si-ZnO at a 0.05V/s scan rate. Glucose oxidase was then immobilized on the ZnO/Si electrode as glucose biosensor, with a limit of detection of 3.33 μM + 1.11 μM (n = 3). Finally, the response current increased linearly with glucose concentration in the range of 500 μM to 2100 μM with a correlation coefficient of 0.998 and a slope of 50 μA μM -1. © 2012 by ESG.Amperometry; Glucose biosensor; RF-Sputtering; ZnOWillander, M., Nur, O., Zhao, Q., Yang, L., Lorenz, M., Cao, B., Prerz, J., Le, D., (2009) Nanotechnology, 20, p. 332001; Sun, X., Kwork, H., (1999) J. of Appl.

This equation is applicable for any wavelength division multiplexing system in presence of both interband and intraband effects. The equation is solved numerically regarding the primary conditions of the problem considering the amplitudes of the sideband pulses at the entrance of SOA are zero. The gain of low frequency pulses will be higher than the gain of the high frequency pulses, as well as the gain difference between different pulses will be reduced with the increasing of frequency detuning. On the other hand, the effects of saturation and the asymmetric gain will control the mixing efficiency of the sideband pulses generated on the left and right of active pulses depending on the power of the input pulses and the frequency detuning. © 2012 Kadhim et al.FWM; SOA; WDM systemZhou, J., Park, N., Dawson, J.W., Vahala, K.J., Newkirk, M.A., Barry, M.I., Efficiency of broadband four-wave mixing wavelength conversion using semiconductor traveling-wave amplifiers (1994) IEEE Photonics Technology Letters, 6 (1), pp. 50-52; Agrawal, G.P., Population pulsations and nondegenerate four wave mixing in semiconductor lasers and amplifiers (1988) J.

Strain and QD inhomogeneity are included in the calculations. The study covers (800–2300 nm) wavelength range which is important in optical communications. While p-doping is shown to be efficient to increasing gain, changing QD size (especially QD radius) is more efficient to vary wavelength. The results predicted that n-doped QD structures are promises for broad band laser applications. © Optical Society of India 2012.III-nitride(III-N); Quantum dot(QD); Wetting layer(WL)Doping (additives); Indium compounds; Laser applications; Nanocrystals; Nitrides; Optical communication; Effect of doping; III-Nitride; In compositions; Inhomogeneities; Long wavelength; Material gain; Wavelength ranges; Wetting layer; Semiconductor quantum dotsBaer, N., Schulz, S., Schumacher, S., Gartner, P., Czycholl, G., Jahnke, F., (2005) Optical Properties of Self-Organized Wurtzite Inn/Gan Quantum Dots: A Combined Atomistic Tightbinding and Full Configuration Interaction Calculation, , arXiv: cond-mat/0509545v1 [cond-mat.other]; Walukiewicz, W., Narrow band gap group III-nitride alloys (2004) Physica E, 20, pp. 300-307; Inushima, T., Higashiwaki, M., Matsui, T., Takenobu, T., Motokawa, M., Electron density dependence of the electronic structure of InN epitaxial layers grown on sapphire (0001) (2005) Phys.

The most widely utilized valve is the solenoid ON/OFF valve because of its simplicity and low cost. However, it has poor controlling performance, which increases the nonlinear behavior occurring in hydraulic systems. This paper devotes on the development and implementation of an adaptive learning algorithm as a real-time controlling algorithm for a hydraulic servosystem utilizing a solenoid valve. The proposed adaptive learning algorithm is a special Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model. ANN is a computer program that provides human brain learning capability to computers for a specific task. In this approach, ANN predicts the controlling action for certain operating parameters learned through a training process. The operating parameters and the result controlling action datasets are collected from experimental operations and then provided to the ANN to learn during the training process. The real-time operating results of the hydraulic servosystem using the adaptive learning algorithm show a compliance of the actuator, which is a linear hydraulic cylinder, to the desired displacements. The controlling through learning concept has the potential to overcome the drawbacks of traditional controllers through the ability to adapt to any changes in the dynamic behavior of a hydraulic servosystem. © 2012 AUT University.Adaptive learning; Adaptive learning algorithm; Artificial neural network models; Controlling actions; Dynamic behaviors; Hydraulic cylinders; Nonlinear behavior; Operating parameters; Computer vision; Hydraulic equipment; Hydraulic machinery; Learning algorithms; Neural networks; Solenoid valves; Hydraulic actuatorsAly, A.A., PID parameters optimization using genetic algorithm technique for electrohydraulic servo control system (2011) Intelligent Control and Automation, 2, pp. 69-69; Al-Assadi, H.M.A.A., Hamouda, A.M.S., Ismaili, N., Aris, I., An adaptive learning algorithm for controlling a two-degree-of-freedom serial balland-socket actuator (2007) Proceeding of IMechE Part I: J.

Obstacles have rectangular cross-sectional area with different aspect ratio that is located before each step. The numerical solutions of continuity, momentum and energy equations were solved by using a commercial code which uses finite volume techniques. The effect of turbulence was modeled by using a k-ε model. The effects of step height, obstacle aspect ratio and Reynolds number on the flow and heat transfer are investigated. The obtained results show that the rate of heat transfer is enhanced as aspect ratio of obstacle increases and this trend is affected by the step height. Also the results verified that the pressure drop decreases as obstacle aspect ratio increases. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.Double forward facing step; Duct flow; Obstacle; TurbulenceCommercial codes; Cross sectional area; Double forward facing step; Duct flow; Energy equation; Finite volume technique; Flow and heat transfer; Numerical solution; Numerical studies; Obstacle; Rate of heat transfer; Step flow; Step height; Turbulent forced convection; Facings; Heat transfer; Reynolds number; Turbulence; Aspect ratioAbu-Mulaweh, H.I., A review of research on laminar mixed convection flow over backward-and forward-facing steps (2003) International Journal of Thermal Sciences, 42, pp. 897-909; Yilmaz, I., Oztop, H.F., Turbulence forced convection heat transfer over double forward facing step flow (2006) International Communications in Heat and Mass Transfer, 33, pp. 508-517; Nassab, S.A.G., Moosavi, R., Sarvari, S.M.H., Turbulent forced convection flow adjacent to inclined forward step in a duct (2009) International Journal of Thermal Sciences, 48, pp. 1319-1326; Bahrami, A., Nassab, S.A.G., Study of entropy generation in laminar forced convection flow over a forward-facing step in a duct (2010) International Review of Mechanical Engineering, 4, pp. 399-404; Abu-Mulaweh, H.I., Turbulent mixed convection flow over a forward-facing step - the effect of step heights (2005) International Journal of Thermal Sciences, 44, pp. 155-162; Stüer, H., Gyr, A., Kinzelbachv, W., Laminar separation on a forward facing step (1999) European Journal of Mechanics - B/Fluids, 18, pp. 675-692; Sherry, M., Lo Jacono, D., Sheridan, J., An experimental investigation of the recirculation zone formed downstream of a forward facing step (2010) Journal of Wind Engineering and Industrial Aerodynamics, 98, pp. 888-894; Langer, D.C., Fleck, B.A., Wilson, D.J., Trajectory measurements of a wall jet impinging onto a forward facing step entering a cross-flow (2010) Journal of Hazardous Materials, 176, pp. 199-206; Atashafrooz, M., Nassab, S.A.G., Ansari, A.B., Numerical investigation of entropy generation in laminar forced convection flow over inclined backward and forward facing steps in a duct under bleeding condition (2012) Thermal Science; Hattori, H., Nagano, Y., Investigation of turbulent boundary layer over forward-facing step via direct numerical simulation (2010) International Journal of Heat and Fluid Flow, 31, pp. 284-294; Wilhelm, D., Hartel, C., Kleiser, L., Computational analysis of the two-dimensional-three-dimensional transition in forward-facing step flow (2003) Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 489, pp. 1-27; Camussi, R., Felli, M., Pereira, F., Aloisio, G., Marco, A.D., Statistical properties of wall pressure fluctuations over a forward-facing step (2008) Physics of Fluids, 20. , 075113-1-075113-13; Barbosa-Saldana, J.G., Anand, N.K., Flow over a three-dimensional horizontal forward-facing step (2008) Numerical Heat Transfer, Part A: Applications, 53, pp. 1-17; Abu-Mulaweh, H.I., Armaly, B.F., Chen, T.S., Measurements of turbulent mixed convection flow over a vertical forward-facing step (2003) ASME Proceedings of the Summer Heat Transfer Conference, Las Vegas, Nevada, , CD-ROM; Stüer, H., (1999) Investigation of separation on a forward facing step, , PhD thesis, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Zürich; Abe, K., Kondoh, T., Nagano, Y., A new turbulence model for predicting fluid flow and heat transfer in separating and reattaching flows - I.

Both positive and negative OEF are studied. The time series of photon density, the phase portraits of carriers in the states are studied. The parameters affecting OEF are examined where an excitability is seen. The QD SL is found to be more sensitive to the changes in time delay compared with other SLs and a complicated routs are seen in the behavior of QD SL. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.

The impinging jet flow was inclined towards the main cross flow and the angle of inclination is ranged from 30° to 90°. The ribs were in staggered arrangement and aligned after the slot jet in normal direction to the main cross flow. The effect of angle of inclination and contraction ratio on thermal field was studied for jet and channel Reynolds number of 20000 and 16000 respectively. The aim of the present study is to verify how adding staggered ribs with inclined jet flow to the problem of backward facing can enhance the rate of heat transfer. The governing partial differential equations of continuity, Navier-Stockes and energy was discretised on non-uniform staggered grid by using finite volume method. The discretised algebraic equations were solved by using a built home computer program based on simple algorithm. The conducted results show that the considered flow geometry increased noticeably the rate of heat transfer for the studied contraction ratios and angle of inclination. It was observed that the rate of heat transfer is decreased as angle of inclination increases. © (2012) Trans Tech Publications.Backward facing step; Impinging jet; Ribbed channelAlgebraic equations; Backward facing step; Backward-facing step flows; Cross flows; Flow geometries; Heat Transfer enhancement; Impinging jet; Impinging jet flow; Inclined jet; Normal direction; Numerical studies; Rate of heat transfer; Ribbed channels; SIMPLE algorithm; Slot jet; Staggered arrangement; Staggered grid; Thermal field; Facings; Finite volume method; Manufacture; Partial differential equations; Reynolds number; Heat transferRavikanth, V.R., Avanch, H., Pletcher, R., Large eddy simulation of the turbulent flow past a backward-facing step with heat transfer and property variations (2002) Heat and Fluid Flow, 23, pp. 601-614; Thangam, S., Knight, D., Effect of step height on the separated flow past a backward facing step (1989) Phys.

Two impellers having different diameters were tested. The aim of the present study is to extend the scientific research of the related studies to high speed centrifugal pump which has a logarithmic profile. The variation of dynamic pressure fluctuations on the front wall of volute casing around the impeller is predicted at different values of volume flow rates. Also the pump performance was tested for the considered values of the volume flow rate. The governing partial differential equations of continuity and momentum were dicretised to algebraic equations by using CFD commercial code(FLUENT 6.3). This code has the ability to transfer the complex physical domain to a computational one by using GAMBIT software. The effect of turbulence was simulated by using a standard k-ε model. The obtained results show th at the dynamic pressure fluctuations significantly dependent on angular position and volume flow rate. It is observed that the pump efficiency is increased as impeller diameter increases. © (2012) Trans Tech Publications.Centrifugal pump; Impeller volute interaction; Shrouded impellerAlgebraic equations; Angular positions; Commercial codes; Dynamic effects; Dynamic pressures; Front walls; Numerical investigations; Numerical studies; Physical domain; Pump efficiency; Pump performance; Scientific researches; Shrouded impeller; Volume flow rate; Volute casings; Computer simulation; Flow rate; Impellers; Manufacture; Partial differential equations; Centrifugal pumpsVan Esch, B.P.M., Performance and radial loading of a mixed-flow pump under non-uniform suction flow (2009) ASME J.

This model takes into account all peculiar characteristics in the quantum dots such as inhomogeneous broadening of the gain spectrum, the presence of the excited states on the quantum dot and the non-confined states due to the presence of wetting layer and the barrier. The contribution of quantum dot groups, which cannot follow by other models, is simulated. The results obtained from this model show the feedback oscillations, the periodic oscillations which evolves to chaos at higher injection current of higher feedback levels. The frequency fluctuation is attributed mainly to wetting layer with a considerable contribution from excited states. The simulation shows that is must be not using simple rate equation models to express quantum dots working at excited state transition. © 2012 Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.Viktorov, E.A., Mandel, P., Huyet, G., (2007) Opt.

The problem was investigated for Reynolds numbers up to 32000. The effect of a step height, the number of ribs and the rib thickness on the flow and thermal field were investigated. The computed results are presented as streamlines counters, velocity vectors, and graphs of Nusselt number and turbulent kinetic energy variation. A control volume method employing a staggered grid techniques was imposed to discretize the governing continuity, full Navier-Stockes and energy equations. A computer program using a SIMPLE algorithm was developed to handle the considered problem. The effect of turbu-lence was modeled by using a k-j{cyrillic, ukrainian} model with its wall function formulas. The obtained results show that the strength and size of the recirculation zones behind the step are increased with the increase of contraction ratio (i. e. with the in-crease of a step height). The size of recirculation regions and the reattachment length after the ribs are decreased with increasing of the contraction ratio. Also the results show that the Reynolds number and contraction ratio have a significant effect on the variation of turbulent kinetic energy and Nusselt number.Backward facing; Ribs; Turbulent duct flowLio, T., Hwang, J., Developing Heat Transfer and Friction in a Ribbed Rectangular Duct with Flow Separation at Inlet (1992) ASME J.

Hydrodynamic and heat transfer characteristics in a laminar, 3-D, incompressible, slip flow, steady state and counter flow are proposed. The Navier-Stokes equations and energy equation for the hot and cold fluids are solved with the slip velocity and temperature jump conditions. The governing equations are discretized using finite-volume method-upwind differencing scheme, and then these are solved using SIMPLE algorithm method on staggered grid with FORTRAN code. From the obtained results it was found that the factors affecting the effectiveness are: Reynolds number Re, thermal conductivity ratio Kr, Knudsen number Kn and aspect ratio α. Increasing of Re, Kn and α separately lead to decrease the effectiveness. While the effectiveness increases with increasing Kr until it reach a certain optimal value which gives the maximum effectiveness at Kr = 90. Also, it is found that Nusselt number decrease with increases Knudsen number. Increasing of Re and Kn separately lead to increase pressure drop. © 2011 Elsevier Masson SAS.

The impinging jets were inclined towards the upstream cross flow and the angle of inclination was varied from 30 to 90. The effect of an inclination angle, the size of slot jets and the contraction ratio on the flow and thermal field was examined. The governing elliptic Navier-Stockes, energy and turbulence model equations were discretised by using a finite volume method. The k-ε model was used to model the turbulence. A computer program was developed to solve these equations by using the SIMPLE algorithm with a staggered grid technique. The aim of this paper is to show how the inclined impingement cooling inside a channel backward facing can represent a significant factor to enhance the rate of heat transfer and producing complex flow field features. The computed results show that the size and strength of recirculation regions are increased as angle of inclination increases. Such increase is also found with increasing the contraction ratio (SR). However this effect seems to be little compared with angle of inclination. The local rate of heat transfer is enhanced as the angle of inclination increases. The validation of the present scheme is performed through comparison with available published results. © 2011 IEEE.backward facing step; duct flow; impingement coolingBackward facing step; Complex flow field; Computational investigation; Computer program; Cross flows; duct flow; Flow characteristic; Impingement cooling; Impinging jet; Inclination angles; Rate of heat transfer; Recirculation regions; SIMPLE algorithm; Slot jet; Staggered grid; Thermal field; Communication; Cooling; Dynamic analysis; Finite volume method; Gas dynamics; Turbulence models; FacingsWang, B., Zhang, H.Q., Wang, X.L., Large eddy simulation of particle response to turbulence along its trajectory in a backward -facing step turbulent flow (2006) Heat Mass Transfer, A9, pp. 415-420; Ravikanth, V.R., Vanch, A., Richard Pletcher, H., Large eddy simulation of the turbulent flow past a backward-facing step with heat transfer and property variations (2002) Heat and Fluid Flow, 23, pp. 601-614; Feng, K.E., Liu, Y.-Z., Chen, H.-P., Simultaneous flow visualization and wall pressure measurement of the turbulent separated and reattachment flow over a backward-facing (2007) J.

The hydrodynamic and thermal characteristics of this suspension flows in microchannels of CFMCHE is numerically investigated. The MEPCM suspension used in this paper consists of microcapsules constructed from n-octadecane as a phase change material (PCM) and the shell material is polymethylmethacrylate, these capsules are suspended in water in a concentration of (0-20)%. From the results, using of MEPCM suspensions as a cooling fluid lead to modify thermal performance of a CFMCHE by increasing its effectiveness but it also lead to increase the pressure drop. From heat transfer (thermal performance) point of view it is better to use this type of fluid to increase cooling efficiency of a CFMCHE, but due to extra increase in pressure drop it leads to reduce the overall performance compared with pure fluids. Therefore its use depends on the application at which this heat exchanger is used. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

The free energy of a mixed spin Ising ferrimagnetic model was calculated from a mean field approximation of the Hamiltonian. By minimizing the free energy, I obtained the equilibrium magnetizations and the compensation temperatures. Clear indications of the single-ion anisotropies on the compensation points of the mixed spin-3/2 and spin-5/2 ferrimagnetic lattices are found. Some interesting behaviors of these systems are obtained depending not only on the values of magnetic anisotropies for both sublattice sites but also on the lattice structure. The longitudinal magnetic fields dependence of the spin compensation temperature is the main focus of research. The possibility of many compensation temperatures is indicated. © 2010 Elsevier B.V.

For each 1 ≤ i ≤ p, Zi denotes the sum of n independent observations from the population Pi. Suppose a subset of random size includes the best population (the one associated with the smallest θi) from the p populations is selected using the following modified selection rule (Gupta, Leong and Wong (1978)): choose Πi in the subset iff Zi = c≤Z((p) +1) where Z(p) = min(Z1, ⋯,Zp) and c > 1. In this paper, we consider the problem of estimating the functions of parameters of the selected subset under Stein loss function. Two problems of estimations are considered; average worth and simultaneous estimation. For the average worth, the natural estimator is shown to be negatively biased with respect to Stein loss function and the UMVUE is obtained using Robbin's (1988) UV method of estimation. The inadmissibility of the natural estimator is proved by constructing a class of dominating estimators. For the simultaneous estimation, the inadmissibility of the natural estimator proved and a class of dominating estimators is obtained. © 2010 Nova Science Publishers, Inc.Average worth estimation; Difference inequalities; Stein loss function; Subset selection; Truncated generalized Poisson distributionsDey, D.K., Chung, Y., Multiparameter estimation in truncated power series distributions under the Stein's loss (1991) Commun.

Suppose from each population we have an observation Xi. The population corresponding to the largest θi, is the best population. To select a population out of these populations, we consider the natural selection rule which selects the population having the largest Xi and randomly selects in case of ties. Our aim in the paper is to estimate the parameter of the selected population under k-normalized squared error loss function for the important special cases k = 0,1, and 2. The natural estimator is shown to be risk-biased using Lehmann's (1951) risk-unbiased concept. For the average worth of the parameters of tied populations with the largest Xi, the UMVUE and UMRUE are also derived. Some applications are presented for the selected Poisson, and negative binomial populations.Discrete exponential family distribution; Estimation after selection; K-normalized squared error loss function; Lehmann's risk-unbiasedGangopadhyay, A., Kumar, S., Estimating average worth of the selected subset from two-parameter exponential populations (2005) Commun.

Fully elliptic Navier-Stockes and energy equations are disrectized using finite volume method along with a staggered grid techniques. The resulting algebraic equations were solved by using semi-implicit line by line Guase elimination scheme. The effect of turbulence was incorporated to treat the regions near the walls. The flow and thermal fields are investigated for different parameters such as the relative baffles height, Rayleigh number and the distance between baffles. The conducted results indicated that the resulting vortices are decreased in number and elongated with the decrease of the dimensionless relative baffle heights. Also the results show that the rate of heat transfer is increased with the increase of Ra especially for the region near the baffles. © 2010 by ASME.Baffles; Square enclosure; Turbulent natural convectionAlgebraic equations; Baffles; Conducting solids; Elimination scheme; Energy equation; Rate of heat transfer; Rayleigh number; Semi-implicit; Square enclosures; Staggered grid; Thermal field; Turbulent natural convection; Finite volume method; Heat transfer; Natural convection; EnclosuresYucel, N., Ozdem, A.H., Natural convection in partially divided square enclosure (2003) Heat Mass Transfer, 40, pp. 167-175; Kalifa, A.J.N., Sahib, W.K., Turbulent buoyancy driven convection in a partially divided enclosures (2002) Energy Converging and Management, 43, pp. 2115-2121; Barozzi, G.S., Corticelli, M.A., Natural convection in cavities containing internal source (2000) J.

Single- and double-butt joints were used for microstructural (light and scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction) and mechanical property (double shear test) studies, respectively. The joints produced with CuZr filler alloys (containing 2%, 4%, 6% and 8% Zr, wt%) showed low shear strengths (0.2-0.4 MPa) due to the presence of ZrO2 at the braze-substrate interface and failed in mode I crack opening. Higher shear strengths of 15-24 and 42 MPa were obtained by using CuTi filler alloys (containing 2%, 4%, 6%, 8% and 10% Ti, wt%) (mode II/mode III dependent on the Ti content) and the eutectic (Ag-27 wt% Cu-5 wt% Ti) alloy, respectively. The high shear strengths were attributed to the small amount of Cu 2(AlTi)4O at the braze-substrate interface and led, in the case of the ternary alloy, to the failure of the substrate rather than the braze (mode III axial splitting). © 2010 Elsevier Ltd and Techna Group S.r.l.

Also, the PMD leads to differential group delay (DGD) among the polarization components. The presence of polarization dependent loss (PDL) vector leads to attenuating one of the components and increases the other by a magnitude determined by the value of PDL vector. The study of each phenomenon individually does not give a proper description of the physical nature of the optical fiber system, because these two phenomena arise together at the same time. In this paper, a new theoretical model is introduced to determine the output SOP as a function of PMD, PDL, and input SOP. On the other hand, a new expression was formulated to the dynamical equation and proved that the principal state of polarization (PSP) vector is a complex, where real and imaginary parts of PSP vector represent the PMD and PDL vectors, respectively. Using these vectors, a new value of DGD and PDL may be found. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

Let X1,,Xp denote the set of observations, where Xi is from πi. Suppose a subset of populations is selected using Gupta and Huang's (1975) selection rule which selects πi if and only if Xi+1cX(1), where X(1)=maxX1,gamba;,Xp, and 0<c<1. In this paper, the simultaneous estimation of the Poisson means associated with the selected populations is considered for the k-normalized squared error loss function. It is shown that the natural estimator is positively biased. Also, a class of estimators that are better than the natural estimator is obtained by solving certain difference inequalities over the sample space. A class of estimators which dominate the UMVUE is also obtained. Monte carlo simulations are used to assess the percentage improvements and an application to a real-life example is also discussed. © 2010 Elsevier B.V.Difference inequalities; Estimation after selection; Improved estimators; Natural estimator; Poisson populations; Selected subset; Unbiased estimatorClevenson, M.L., Zidek, J.V., Simultaneous estimation of the means of independent Poisson laws (1975) J.

The starting substrate 2-(2-bromobenzyloxy) ethanoyl chloride was treated with appropriate Schiff's bases in triethylamine and dichloromethane to afford 3-(2-bromobenzyloxy)azetidin-2-ones. The synthesis of azetidin-2,3-diones was successfully achieved via radical mediated rearrangement of appropriately substituted 3-(2-bromobenzyloxy)azetidin-2-ones using n-tributyltin hydride and AIBN in refluxing dry benzene. © Springer-Verlag 2010.β-Lactams; 3-(2-bromobenzyloxy)azetidin-2-ones; Azetidin-2,3-diones; Radical mediated rearrangementDepartment of Science and Technology, Ministry of Science and Technology, India, डीएसटी: SR/FTP/CS-135/2006; Indian Council for Cultural Relations, ICCRWe gratefully acknowledge the financial support for this work from the Indian Council of Cultural Relations, New Delhi, Government of India, under ICCR (Indo-Iraqi, CEP Schme), TF/OCF grant and Department of Science and Technology (DST), New Delhi, Government of India, project no.

By minimizing the free energy, we obtain the equilibrium magnetizations and the compensation points. A mixed spin-2 and spin-5/2 Ising ferrimagnet with different single-ion anisotropies on a simple cubic lattice (z=6) is studied. We have used a mean field method and found that the anisotropy of the mixture plays an important role as regards the existence and location of compensation points. The existence of a compensation temperature and its dependence on the external field are the main focus of investigation. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

A database from tests on ferrocement members is developed from the review of literature and some new tests. The selected input variables include the width and the depth of specimens, cube compressive strength of mortar, and tensile strength and volume fraction of wire mesh. A parametric study is carried out using BPNN to study the influence of each parameter affecting the moment capacity of the ferrocement member. The results of this study indicate that both BPNN and ANFIS provide good predictions which are better than those from other available methods. These models can serve as reliable and simple predictive tools for the prediction of moment capacity of ferrocement members. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.Adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system; Ferrocement; Moment; Neural networksAdaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system; Back-propagation neural networks; Ferrocement; Input variables; Moment capacity; Neural networks model; Parametric study; Predictive tools; Wire meshes; Compressive strength; Concrete bridges; Forecasting; Fuzzy inference; Fuzzy neural networks; Reinforced concrete; Tensile strength; Fuzzy systems; artificial neural network; compressive strength; modeling; mortar; tensile strengthUniversity of BasrahThe first author is grateful for the support provided by Thi-Qar University, Basrah University and the Education Ministry of Iraq towards his visit to North Carolina State University, USA.Naaman, A.E., (2000) Ferrocement and laminated cementitious composites, book; Hanna, M.A., Ural, D., Saygili, G., Evaluation of liquefaction potential of soil deposits using artificial neural networks (2007) J Comput Aided Eng Softw, 24 (1), pp. 5-16; Padmini, D., Iamparuthi, K., Sudheer, K.P., Ultimate bearing capacity prediction of shallow foundations on cohesionless soils using neurofuzzy models (2008) J Comput Geotech, 35, pp. 33-46; Gershenson, C., Artificial neural networks for beginners.

These levels are: The ground- and excited-states in the QD, the wetting layer (WL) and separate confinement heterostructure (SCH) layers. The most possible relaxation paths and carrier transport are considered in two types of QD structures: GaN/AlxGa1-xN/AlN and InxGa1-xN/ In0.04Ga0.96N/ GaN. Effect of: QD and WL compositions, QD sizes, doped and undoped active regions is studied. The RIN is shown to be reduced with higher Al content in the WL, while an increased is shown for InGaN QD structures. RIN decreases with size reduction. Increased doping until 12 acceptors/QD reduced RIN also.

Ventricular tachycardia is a main presenting feature. There are no known reports of this disease from the Arab countries in the Middle East. This is the first report of 34 patients from Iraq. Methods: Thirty four patients with ARVC/D diagnosed from January 2003 to May 2007 according to the International Task Force criteria were included in this study. Results: All patients presented with ventricular tachycardia of left bundle branch block morphology. The following findings were seen on the 12-lead electrocardiography during sinus rhythm: T wave inversion V1-V3 or beyond in 80%, epsilon wave in 28%, and parietal block in 48%. Right ventricular enlargement by echocardiography was seen in 69%. Twenty two per cent had a family history of sudden cardiac death. All patients were treated with implanted cardioverter-defibrillators. Conclusions: ARVC/D is a disease seen in Iraq. It requires a high diagnostic suspicion with verification using the international task force criteria. © 2010 Via Medica.Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy/dysplasia; Iraqamiodarone; adult; article; cardioversion; clinical article; defibrillator; family history; female; heart left bundle branch block; heart right ventricle aneurysm; heart right ventricle dysplasia; heart right ventricle ejection fraction; heart right ventricle hypertrophy; heart ventricle aneurysm; heart ventricle fibrillation; heart ventricle tachycardia; human; Iran; male; sudden death; T wave inversion; Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia; Bundle-Branch Block; Death, Sudden, Cardiac; devices; echocardiography; electrocardiography; heart function test; implantable cardioverter defibrillator; Iraq; predictive value; Tachycardia, Ventricular; treatment outcome; young adult; Adult; Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia; Bundle-Branch Block; Death, Sudden, Cardiac; Defibrillators, Implantable; Echocardiography; Electric Countershock; Electrocardiography; Electrophysiologic Techniques, Cardiac; Female; Humans; Iraq; Male; Predictive Value of Tests; Tachycardia, Ventricular; Treatment Outcome; Young Adultamiodarone, 1951-25-3, 19774-82-4, 62067-87-2Marcus, F.I., Update of arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia (2002) Cardiac Electrophysiol Rev, 6, pp. 54-56; Corrado, D., Basso, C., Thiene, G., Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy: Diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment (2000) Heart, 83, pp. 588-595; Richardson, P.J., McKenna, W.J., Bristow, M., Report of the 1995 World Health Organization/International Society and Federation of Cardiology Task Force on the Definition and Classification of cardiomyopathies (1996) Circulation, 93, pp. 841-842; Fontaine, G., Fontaliran, F., Frank, R., Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathies.

Their size and shape may have considerable effect on the thermal and hydraulic performance of a heat exchanger. In this paper numerical simulation is carried out to solve 3D developing flow and 3D conjugate heat transfer of a balanced counter flow microchannel heat exchanger (CFMCHE) to evaluate the effect of size and shape of channels on the performance of CFMCHE for the same volume of heat exchanger. The effect of shape of the channels on its performance is studied for different channel cross-sections such as circular, square, rectangular, iso-triangular and trapezoidal. Results show that for the same volume of a heat exchanger, increasing the number of channels lead to increase in both effectiveness and pressure drop. Moreover circular channels give the best overall performance (thermal and hydraulic) among various channel shapes. New correlations are developed to predict the value of heat exchanger effectiveness and performance index as a function of relative size of channels with overall heat exchanger volume, Reynolds number and thermal conductivity ratio. © 2009 Elsevier Masson SAS.

Methods: This study was conducted at Al-Kadhimiya Teaching Hospital, Baghdad, Iraq, from July 2006 to February 2007. Twenty-seven healthy subjects, 44 type 2 diabetics, and 36 LSR patients were studied. The HbA1c level, plain x-ray, and MRI of the lumbosacral region and different electrophysiological tests were assessed. Results: The sural sensory nerve action potential (SNAP) amplitude values were reduced in 56.3%, and the sural/radial amplitude ratio (SRAR) values were reduced in 71.8% in the diabetic patients, but not in the LSR group. The peroneal compound muscle action potential (CMAP) amplitude was low in 70.45% DAN patients versus 35.5% LSR patients. Peroneal F-minimum (Fmin) values were prolonged in 56.8% DAN versus 32.25% LSR patients. The F-persistence (Fp) values were low in 72.7% of DAN, versus 45.2% of LSR patients. However, the F-chronodispersion (Fc) was abnormal in 71% of LSR versus 11.4% of DAN patients. Conclusion: The SRAR was found to be more significant than the sural SNAP amplitude alone in the differential diagnosis of the 2 groups. Abnormal peroneal Fc and Fp seems to be valuable tests in the detection of LSR and DAN patients.hemoglobin A1c; adult; aged; article; controlled study; diabetic neuropathy; differential diagnosis; electrophysiology; female; human; lumbosacral radiculopathy; major clinical study; male; nerve potential; neurophysiology; nuclear magnetic resonance imaging; peroneus nerve; radial nerve; radiculopathy; sural nerve; X ray analysishemoglobin A1c, 62572-11-6Yousef, W.M., Omar, A.H., Morsy, M.D., Abd El-Wahed, M.M., Ghanayem, N.M., The role of calcium channel blockers in the treatment of diabetic nephropathy (2005) International Journal of Diabetes and Metabolism, 13, pp. 68-75; Boulton, A.J., Malik, R.A., Arezzo, J.C., Sosenko, J.M., Diabetic somatic neuropathies (2004) Diabetes Care, 27, pp. 1458-1486; Boulton, A.J.M., Management of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (2005) Clinical Diabetes, 23, pp. 9-15; Abram, S.E., Treatment of lumbosacral radiculopathy with epidural steroids (1999) Anesthesiology, 91, pp. 1937-1941; Wilbourn AJ, Aminoff MJ.

Little is known about ADHD in Al Nassiriya, there Objectives: To determine the prevalence of ADHD and, its subtypes comorbid neurological and -psychiatric disorders and their relationship with sociodemographic variables among first grade primary school pupils in Nassiriya city. Method: Cross sectional study involving 200 first grade primary school pupils of both sexes at Nassiriya city during the period January-March 2006. Each pupil was tested by English version of MINI (International neuro-psychiatric interview ADHD by a psychiatrist. Results: ADHD prevalence rate was 15% (9% males and 6% females). AD was the major subtype (60%), combined type (26%). HD (13%). The majority of ADHD cases were found in groups with low academic achievement (10%), unemployed parents (8%), and living in city center (11%). All these variables were statistically higher in ADHD group. Speech disorder (26%) represented the main comorbid neurological disorder while conduct disorder (23%) constituted the main comorbid psychiatric disorder. Conclusion: In Nassiriya primary school children, ADHD prevalence rate was 15%'. The three subtypes (AD, HD, and Combined) were more prevalent in males than females. These results have to be considered for future healthy public and private programs.Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder; ChildrenSand, S., Barton, J., (1996) Historical Development in Hyperactivity Disorder of Childhood., pp. 1-25. , Cambridge University. ed, personal authors; Lahey, B., Rowland, A., Epidemiological issues in ADHD (1999) Child Development (ADHD) Conference in University of Chicago., , April 14; Szatmari, P., Offord, D.R., Boyle, M.H., (1998) Correlate Associated Impairment and Pattern of Services of Children with Attention Deficit Disorder Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry and Allied Disciplines., 30, pp. 205-217; (1994) Diagnostic and Statistic Manual of Mental Disorder, 4. , American Psychiatric Association.

This new model makes it possible to calculate gain from excited states in an easier manner where an inhomogeneous density of states is used with the probability functions taken from their rate equations. Effect of parameters like pumping level, intrinsic relaxation time (τ0) and temperature on the excited-state gain are examined. A comparison between thermal and nonthermal coupling is considered. It is found that longer τ0 is irrelevant for thermal coupling. © 2006 Elsevier B.V.

The four-level structure-dependent model introduced in this work enable us to study relaxation, recombination and emission processes in the QD region. Carrier recombination outside the dot (inside the quantum-well region), which is impossible to study with other models, is studied here. In this paper, it is shown that noise can be split into five sources. Phonon bottleneck effect is shown to increase the noise. © 2004 Elsevier B.V.
