Geomorphology is concerned with the topographic units that make up the Earth's surface. These take many forms, such as mountains and rivers, and include many dangers such as landslides, landslides and erosion. Many studies appeared in this field to analyze its effects and risks resulting from it, including urban studies, to determine the trends of optimal urban expansion and its geomorphological interactions. The results showed that the city of Kut originated and expanded near the course of the Tigris River and its branches, and it suffers from unbalanced urban expansion, due to the high rate of population growth, and overcrowding in housing units with the growth of urban land uses in it, which prompted the city to extend horizontally and vertically and use land New at the expense of the lands and areas surrounding the city of Kut. To do so, this research dealt with determining the trends of current and future urban expansion of the city of Kut, and the detection of geomorphological controls that determine that expansion through the geographical characteristics of the city. The research relied on the descriptive, analytical, historical and quantitative method, collecting data through field studies and relevant government institutions, and using satellite visuals and GIS techniques in analyzing data and drawing conclusions. It has become clear from the research that there are natural determinants represented (rivers, marshes, Sabkha, natural resources) and they outweigh the effect of human determinants represented (orchards and agricultural lands, industrial areas, government and military structures, landfills, quarries and brick factories), which is due to poor planning. The override on the city’s base map scheme, and therefore these determinants restrict that expansion or increase its cost, determine its direction and reduce the city’s absorptive capacity. As for the best available directions for the future urban expansion of the city, they are towards the northwest along the (Kut-Baghdad) road, and towards the southeast along the (Kut-Nasiriya) road, because there are no geomorphic or human determinants that impede the spatial expansion of the city towards it. Thus, defining and measuring the trend of urban expansion will be faced with the various natural-geomorphological determinants, which must be considered among the priorities of any strategic plan for developing urban areas, and protecting them from geomorphological risks.
In the spreading of the Internet, mobile smart devices, and interactive websites such as YouTube, the educational video becomes more widespread and deliberative among users. The reasons for its spread are the prevalence of technologies, cheap cost, and easy to use. However, these products often lack to the distinction in video production. By following videos of an educational channel on YouTube, some comments found to discuss the lack of the content presented to motivate the learners, which lead to reduce the viewers of the videos. Therefore, there is an important decision to find general standards for the design and production of educational videos.

Show MoreAn Eigen-state expansion method is applied to the transition of the Auger de-excitation charge transfer (AD) process in the interaction between clean Cu,Al and Na surfaces and excited incident gases H and He .We use this method to describe the effective surfaces electronic structure. It's shown that the AD efficiency is deeply influenced by the presence of the energy band for the surfaces and the potential energy stored within the excited incident atom, thus for long interaction time we use a slowly atom's about 1KeV to scatter from metals surfaces where the electron couldn't probe the metal band structure and Za the surface - projectile distance. Also we drive a new formula for AD interaction Matrix element
The effect of using three different interpolation methods (nearest neighbour, linear and non-linear) on a 3D sinogram to restore the missing data due to using angular difference greater than 1° (considered as optimum 3D sinogram) is presented. Two reconstruction methods are adopted in this study, the back-projection method and Fourier slice theorem method, from the results the second reconstruction proven to be a promising reconstruction with the linear interpolation method when the angular difference is less than 20°.

The paper presents the results of precise of the calculations of the diffusion of slow electrons in ionospheric gases, such as, (Argon – Hydrogen mixture, pure Nitrogen and Argon – Helium – Nitrogen) in the presence of a uniform electric field and temperature 300 Kelvin. Such calculations lead to the value Townsend's energy coefficient (KT) as a function of E/P (electric field strength/gas pressure), electric field (E), electric drift velocity (Vd), momentum transfer collision frequency ( ), energy exchange collision frequency ( ) and characteristic energy (D/?). The following physical quantities are deduced as function s E/P: mean free path of the electrons at unit pressure, mean energy lost by an electron per collision, mean velocit
