The research addressed an analytical field investigation of the locality of meander, the factors responsible of the locality of the meander at certain points of the stream other than others, and the role sequence of these factors in the formation process.
The research revealed that the location of forming the meander was associated closely with the scale structural composition of the bank materials from which the first stage of forming the curved stream, for the inhomogeneous or non-identical opposite banks in their scale structural composition saw an activity of differential corrosion, while the homogeneous and identical opposite banks in their scale structural composition saw an identical corrosion activity in its intensity at both banks. The research investigated in field the presence of scale variation of the materials of opposite banks in the location of forming the meander which was not found at the incurved stream banks by taking samples and analyze them in scale. The analysis results showed that the synclinal bank was with high sand ratio which was the reason behind the activity of corrosion process due to its weak cohesion, high permeability, and highroughness creating an environment of frequent turmoil reverse eddy currents. As to its opposite bank which represented the convex bank, the results of the scale analysis showed its soil to be with high content of mud; therefore, it was resistant to the corrosion activity compared to the synclinal bank, being more cohesive and of weak permeability, it was soft, so it did not create a turmoil eddy motional environment of the aquatic currents. While in the incurved stream, the results of the scale analysis showed that the soil of both opposite banks were identical in its volume content; therefore, the activity of the corrosion process was identical at both banks and its high sand ratio resulted in the expansion of the stream and not its fold.
The research revealed that the circularity of the curved stream imposed the presence of the centrifugal force which appeared in the domains of the circular motion, changing the concentration locations of the currents. As it is well-known, the fastest currents in the river are those which locate far away from the bottom and the banks, and are found in the middle of the stream which we really found in the incurved stream, but due to the control of the centrifugal force, we found that the fastest currents were concentrated at the synclinal banks and that the slowest currents were concentrated at the synclinal banks, which explains logically and realistically due to the contrast of the corrosion and sediment activity in the curved river streams and the presence of centrifugal force was responsible of the development of these streams from fold to curve to turn to cut lake.
The research defined the morphology of the curved stream at any stage of the development stages at the presence of three corrosion units that represent the synclinal banks meeting three sedimentary units represent the convex banks, two of which were opposite to each other represent overall the neck of the stream and the stream in its complete shape was represented by the overall of these corners
This study aims to identify the level of students’ awareness at Imam Muhammad bin Saud University of the requirements of married life in the light of social changes and suggested methods to deepen this awareness (according to the Islamic educational vision) from their own perspective. In this study, the researcher used the descriptive approach with a survey research method, depending on questionnaires to collect data, which he applied to students of College of Sharia in Imam Muhammad bin Saud Islamic University, as well as, students in the fields of Sociology, Social Work, and Psychology in the College of Social Sciences. The findings of the study revealed that students are aware of the requirements of married life concerning mutual ri

Various data were used to identify patterns of land use change and city growth and expansion. The research aims to analyze the impact of the port on the growth of the city, study the urban growth of the city of Umm Qasr and predicting the growth trends, and to identify the most influential factors in this growth. The study dealt with the concepts of urban growth and the factors that characterize the growth of port cities and the current situation of the city. The practical part included the mechanisms used by the researcher to analyze the

A previous paper constructed a scoring system to predict breast cancer mortality at 5 to 10 years by using age, personal history of breast cancer, grade, TNM stage and multicentricity as prognostic factors in Spain population. This paper highlights the improvement of survival prediction by using fuzzy logic, through upgrading the scoring system to make it more accurate and efficient in cases of unknown factors, age groups, and in the way of how to calculate the final score. By using Matlab as a simulator, the result shows a wide variation in the possibility of values for calculating the risk percentage instead of only 16. Additionally, the accuracy will be calculate

On the enzymatic level an inhibition in the activity of GPT was noticed in different body organs such as liver, kidney and lung. The inhibition was noticed in both test and cyclophosphamide drug (cp). Mice were treated with three doses of cyclophosphamide (90,180, 250) ?g/ mouse for three days. The same doses were used for the cobalt (II) complex. The liver shows the highest rate of(GPT) inhibition co

There are obstacles to high levels of hypertension awareness that are embedded in gender, income and lifestyle habits which need to be addressed leading to high levels of undiagnosed and uncontrolled hypertension. This study aimed to explore the various factors which affect hypertension awareness among a hypertensive population in a tertiary care hospital.
A quantitative study was conducted among hypertensive patients at a tertiary care hospital in Selangor, Malaysia. A validated and translated questionnaire was utilised as a data collection tool. Descriptive and inferential statistical analysis was done using SPSS version 25.
A thousand participants (female n=621, male n= 379) were recruited, and their

However, it has been reported that most of the IT projects fails as it is delayed, over budget and discontinued quality. A systematic literature review (SLR) was conducted to identify the critical success factors (CSFs) for the IT projects. Nine (9) CSFs was identified from the SLR. An online survey was conducted among 103 respondents from developers and IT managers. The data was analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS 22). The findings showed that the highest CSFs of IT projects is commitment and motivation. Project monitoring was found the lowest score ranked by respondents.

Thermal conductivity of compacted bentonite is one of the most important properties where this type of clay is proposed for use as a buffer material. In this study, Lee's disc method was used to measure the thermal conductivity of compacted bentonite specimens. The experimental results have been analyzed to observe the three major factors affecting the thermal conductivity of bentonite buffer material. While the clay density reaches to a target value, the measurement is taken to evaluate the thermal conductivity. By repeating this procedure, a relationship between clay dry density and thermal conductivity has been established in specimens after adjusting the water contents of the bentonite by placing its specimens in a drying oven for diffe
