ABSTRACT: Ultimate bearing capacity of soft ground reinforced with stone column was recently predicted using various artificial intelligence technologies such as artificial neural network because of all the advantages that they can offer in minimizing time, effort and cost. 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 rel

The aim of this paper is to investigate the effects of Nd:YAG laser shock processing (LSP) on micro-hardness and surface roughness of 86400Cu-Zn alloy. X-ray fluorescence technique was used to analyze the chemical composition of this alloy. LSP treatment was performed with a Q-switched Nd: YAG laser with a wavelength of 1064 nm. The results show that laser shock processing can significantly increase. The micro-hardness and surface roughness of the LSP-treated sample. Vickers diamond indenter was used to measure the micro-hardness of all samples with different laser pulse energy and the different number of laser pulses. It is found that the metal hardness can be significantly increased to more than 80% by increasing the laser energy and t

The study examines Julia Alvarez's role as a Dominican American author, poet, and essayist. Despite being born in New York City in 1950, she was raised in the Dominican Republic by a family with Dominican heritage. Her residence in her ancestral homeland significantly influenced her subsequent literary works. Upon her father's implication in a conspiracy against Dominican President, he departed from the Dominican Republic. Alvarez encountered the challenge of the English language. They were compelled to acquire proficiency in English due to the prevailing perception that anyone who spoke a language other than English were deemed "un-American" during that period. Alvarez recounted her initial encounters in the United States and the subseque

اهتم العديد من الباحثين والمحققين في دراسة أبي البركات الأنباري ، كونه أديبا ولغويا ومفسرا ، ونشروا معظم ما وصل إلينا من مؤلفاته ،لكن كما يبدو أن الانباري، مؤرخا ، لم ينل حظه من الاهتمام والدراسة على الرغم من أن كتابه (نزهة الألباب في طبقات الأدباء) قد نشر وحققه صفوة المحققين ^([i])وذلك انهم أغفلوا التعريف بمنهجه ودراسته لاسيما وأن التأليف في كتب الطبقات من أهم مناهج الكتابة التاريخية

Hamdan tribe had considered one of the biggest tribe in Yemen. It contained many branches, thus, it had distributed in many cities and for this reason , it was different in their warship. it was one of the tribe that had many courageous men .
