This study presents an adaptive control scheme based on synergetic control theory for suppressing the vibration of building structures due to earthquake. The control key for the proposed controller is based on a magneto-rheological (MR) damper, which supports the building. According to Lyapunov-based stability analysis, an adaptive synergetic control (ASC) strategy was established under variation of the stiffness and viscosity coefficients in the vibrated building. The control and adaptive laws of the ASC were developed to ensure the stability of the controlled structure. The proposed controller addresses the suppression problem of a single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) building model, and an earthquake control scenario was conducted and simulated on the basis of earthquake acceleration data recorded from the El Centro Imperial Valley Earthquake. The effectiveness of the adaptive synergetic control was verified and assessed via numerical simulation, and a comparison study was conducted between the adaptive and classical versions of synergetic control (SC). The vibration suppression index was used to evaluate both controllers. The numerical simulation showed the capability of the proposed adaptive controller to stabilize and to suppress the vibration of a building subjected to earthquake. In addition, the adaptive controller successfully kept the estimated viscosity and stiffness coefficients bounded.

Financial markets liquidity and their impact in the return of common stocks
The research aimed to study the financial markets liquidity and returns of common stocks
Take the research the theoretical concepts associated with each of the liquidity of financial markets and returns of common stocks
As well as the use of mathematical methods in the practical side to measure market liquidity and Stocks Return
the community of research in listed companies in Iraqi stock exchange that have been trading on its stock and number 85 joint-stock company
The research was based to one premise
there is a statistically significant effect for the liquidity of the Iraqi stock exchange on returns of common stocks to traded companies in which
Using the SPSS program was to test the hypothesis research population represented Iraq Stock Exchange for a period of three years (2010-2012) on a monthly basis. The research found the set of conclusions most important rising market liquidity for Iraq Stock Exchange and followed increase in return of common stocks for a period of research
as the results of statistical analysis indicated the presence of a statistically significant effect of moral Iraq Stock Exchange liquidity on returns of common stocks
and most important recommendations should the Iraq Stock Exchange work to expand its activities in electronic trading
by providing the possibility of trading for investors through the Internet
and not limited to trading within the market
and should work to reduce the transaction costs to raise the liquidity common stock
and thus reflect positively on the liquidity of the Iraq Stock Exchange brokerage firms associated with it .
