The Transformation of environments surrounding human which called (place), formed an intermediate compresser in forming awareness pictures, human knowledge, culture and thought features, and changing the systems and contexts of human societies, which led to a change the rhythm of life as a whole. So according to that the place will be encodes according to these data for psychological connotations, lead to human sense of harmony with the place in different manner format, here the search problem lies when trying to detect how Iraqi artist deliberating with the place concept, wondering how to investing place in the contemporary Iraqi drawing within its reference dimension, and showing mechanisms from comparative study for the works of two artists, who formed the place element a radical axis in their works, how are each of the artist Nuri al-Rawi, and the artist Saad al-Tai. And the place within the data human culture and thought, represents civilizational reference and national privacy, and the art dimension is a part of data of human culture and thought. So it carries a great mutants for the place. Hence the importance of research comes to be as a new dimension on the level of critical analysis to detect the references and attributes of this concept in the identity of Iraqi art. So the search aims: to detect referential dimension of place in the Iraqi drawing among contemporary contexts, and showing it in the work of artists Nuri al-Rawi and Saad al-Tai.
Based on the correlation of both - knowledge and place, for that each of this knowledge founded its theories about the concept of place, both according to its data and orientations, as the problem of the place is from philosophical problems which be placed within the circle of simple search even to be impossible of the same place, but the concept of the place was more fortunate in the field of philosophical studies in general, and monetary and literary and artistic especially, so had to stand starting from the concept of the place, and the theory of place in art and literature from the perspective of aesthetic and semantic, of where correlation between place and time for literary space with creativity space. On this basis, many descriptions developed for the place types, correlated with the most important concepts within the dialectic forming place within the field of fine arts, which are include: real place, symbolic place, assumption place, and imagined place. And then shed light on the mechanisms represent the place in trends of modern art (global and Iraqi), which varied from symbolic realistic representation for inherited significances reaching to absent the place or neglect its recipes and breakdown from domination imposed by its selected, or attempt to openness to the space of place in the work, which skips the boundaries of time and history.
After analyzing the samples that have been chosen are intentional, came researcher outcome of the most important: that the place manifestation different levels of expression at each of the artist Al-Rawi and artist Al-Tai, the Rawi was often clings to supposed place, while Tai moved from supposed place to symbolic place to the imagined place, the Al-Rawi often transcend on the realistic to place and transmit them to places with ideal characteristics, while Al-Tai transmitting recipes of example on the landscape seems to be linked to reality. And the place for Rawi reflects oftenly an externally part (village), but for Tai reflecting external parts and internal (special and private). The place devoid of all that is emotive in Al-Rawi, so its place are rapting meditating, while Al-Tai places are more emotive and movement from Al-Rawi places. In addition to the general results included the concept of place and its relationship with characteristics of the formation of the artwork.
In this research, the region in the south-west of Iraq is classified using a fuzzy inference system to estimate its desertification degree. Three land cover indices are used which are the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index, Normalized Multi-Band Drought Index and the top of atmosphere surface temperature to build a fuzzy decision about the desertification degree using eight decision roles. The study covers a temporal period of 38 years, where about every 10 years a sample is elected to verify the desertification status of the region, starting from 1990 to 2018. The results show that the desertification status varied every 10 years, wherein 2000 encountered the highest desertification in the south-west of Iraq.

Many diseases can produce cardiac overload, of these disease hypertension, valve disease congenital anomaly in addition to many other disease. One of the most common diseases causing left ventricle overload is hypertension. A long term hypertension can cause myocardium hypertrophy leading to changes in the cardiac contractility and reduced efficiency. The investigations were carried out using conventional echocardiography techniques in addition to the tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) from which many noninvasive measurements can be readily obtained. The study has involved the effect of hypertension on the myocardium stiffness index through the measurement of early diastolic filling (E) and the early velocity of lateral mitral annulus (Ea

Walkability as one of the Planning Treatments to Face Epidemics in Cities
In the present work, silver nanoparticles were prepared. Nonlinear optical properties and
optical limiting of silver nanoparticles were investigated.Standard chemical synthesis method was used at
diffrent weight ratio(0.038, 0.058 and 0.078) of silver nitrate. Several testing were done to obtain the
characteristics of the sample. Z-Scan experiments were performed using 30 ns Q-switched Nd:YAG
laser at 1064 nm and 532 nm at different intensities. The results showed that the nonlinear refractive
index is directly proportional to the input intensities, which caused by the self-focusing of the material.
In addition, the optical limiting behavior has been studied. The results showed that the sample could be
used as an opt
Construction is a hazardous industry with a high number of injuries. Prior research found that many industry injuries can be prevented by implementing an effective safety plan if prepared and maintained by qualified safety personnel. However, there are no specific guidelines on how to select qualified construction safety personnel and what criteria should be used to select an individual for a safety position in the United States (US) construction industry. To fill this gap in knowledge, the study goal was to identify the desired qualifications of safety personnel in the US construction industry. To achieve the study goal, the Delphi technique was used as the main methodology for determining the desired qualifications for constructio

In the years recently city planning projects have been confirmed sustainable high concentration on planning streets and pedestrian paths being the most prominent component of the urban structure in the city and these me and diverse departments link the city’s sectors and serve as a space for economic, service, and social activities. On the other hand, pedestrian traffic is an essential component of the various means of transportation within the city. Suffer cities in the Middle East and Arab cities in particular are neglecting pedestrian paths in the vital urban environment. Vehicle control mechanisms on roads, and changing the uses of pedestrian paths as result of encroaching on the sidewalks designated for pedestrians. Which leads to a

Show MoreIn this work an approach has been developed to investigate the influence of surface roughness on thermohydrodynamic performance in aligned and misaligned journal bearings by considering an average flow model and deriving the shear flow factor for various roughness configurations, similar to the pressure flow factor. An average Reynolds equation for rough surfaces is defined in term of pressure and shear flow factors, which can be obtained by numerical flow simulation, though the use of measured or numerically generated rough surfaces. Reynolds, heat conduction and energy equations are solved simultaneously by using a suitable numerical technique (Finite Difference Method) to obtain the pressure and temperature di
