Ground Water Quality Evaluation with Using WQI of Selected wells in Mandali Area, Diyala Governorate, East Iraq

     Groundwater is necessary to ensure the safety of Mandali's water supply. Groundwater samples were collected from various parts of the city for this study. Two aquifers have been identified: the first is a free bed made up of Quaternary deposits. The second is the primary bed that conveys water,  belonging to the Bai Hassan Formation. Nineteen groundwater samples were collected from wells and examined for physicochemical parameters in the current study during October 2021. Samples were analyzed for main cations Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+, and K+;  anions HCO3- , SO42- , Cl- and NO3-,  pH, Electrical Conductivity, and Total Dissolved Solids. Results indicated that the Samples water is neutral to slightly alkaline. The TDS classifications show that the groundwater samples are classified as fresh to slightly fresh water. All water samples are severely mineralized, except sample W17 which is highly mineralized due to the water feeding from the deep aquifer of Bai Hassan formation. Dominant cation is Na+ followed by Ca2+, Mg2+ then K+, whereas dominant anion SO42 ̶  followed by Cl¯ then HCO3¯. The water type of  8 samples 42% is NaCl type, seven samples 37% is MgSO4 type, three samples 16% is Na2SO4 type, and 1 sample 5% is CaSO4. The diversity in water is because the sediments of the Quaternary age derived from neighboring formations such as Fatha and other formations. According to Piper's diagram, Groundwater samples are mostly earth alkaline water with an increased amount of alkali,  high sulfate and chloride. The groundwater in the study area has a wide range of WQI ranging from excellent (W17) while classified as good water (W1, W3, W4, W5, W6, W7, W8, W9, W11, W12, W13, W14, W16, W18, W19) and classified as Poor water (W2, W10, W15) because of the high values of WQI values computed.

A study on Soft Pre-Open Sets using γ Operation

The concept of strong soft  pre-open set was initiated by Biswas and Parsanann.We utilize this notion to study several characterizations and properties of this set. We investigate the relationships between this set and other types of soft open sets. Moreover, the properties of the strong soft  pre-interior and closure are discussed. Furthermore, we define a new concept by using strong soft  pre-closed that we denote as locally strong soft  pre-closed, in which several results are obtained. We establish a new type of soft pre-open set, namely soft  pre-open. Also, we continue to study pre-  soft open set and discuss the relationships among all these sets. Some counter examples are given to show some relations

Intelligent Age Estimation From Facial Images Using Machine Learning Techniques

     Lately, a growing interest has been emerging in age estimation from face images because of the wide range of potential implementations in law enforcement, security control, and human computer interactions. Nevertheless, in spite of the advances in age estimation, it is still a challenging issue. This is due to the fact that face aging process is not only set by distinct elements, such as genetic factors, but by extrinsic factors, such as lifestyle, expressions, and environment as well. This paper applied machine learning technique to intelligent age estimation from facial images using J48 classifier on FG_NET dataset. The proposed work consists of three phases; the first phase is image preprocessing which include

Solving Flexible Job Shop Scheduling Problem Using Meerkat Clan Algorithm

Meerkat Clan Algorithm (MCA) that is a swarm intelligence algorithm resulting from watchful observation of the Meerkat (Suricata suricatta) in the Kalahari Desert in southern Africa. Meerkat has some behaviour. Sentry, foraging, and baby-sitter are the behaviour used to build this algorithm through dividing the solution sets into two sets, all the operations are performed on the foraging set. The sentry presents the best solution. The Flexible Job Shop Scheduling Problem (FJSSP) is vital in the two fields of generation administration and combinatorial advancement. In any case, it is very hard to accomplish an ideal answer for this problem with customary streamlining approaches attributable to the high computational unpredictability. Most

Scheme for Generating True Random Numbers using Electro-mechanical Switches

This paper proposes a novel method for generating True Random Numbers (TRNs) using electromechanical switches. The proposed generator is implemented using an FPGA board. The system utilizes the phenomenon of electromechanical switch bounce to produce a randomly fluctuated signal that is used to trigger a counter to generate a binary random number. Compared to other true random number generation methods, the proposed approach features a high degree of randomness using a simple circuit that can be easily built using off-the-shelf components. The proposed system is implemented using a commercial relay circuit connected to an FPGA board that is used to process and record the generated random sequences. Applying statistical testing on the exp
