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.
Background. After tooth extraction, alveolar bone resorption is inevitable. This clinical phenomenon challenges dental surgeons aiming to restore esthetic and function. Alveolar ridge preservation can be applied to minimize dimensional changes with a new socket grafting material, an autogenous dentin graft, produced by mechanically and chemically processing natural teeth. This study assessed the safety and efficacy of using autogenous dentin biomaterial in alveolar ridge preservation. Materials and Methods. Patients with nonrestorable maxillary anterior teeth bounded by natural sound teeth were included in this study. After a detailed clinical and tomographic examination, eligible participants were randomly allocated into two groups

The complex was formed by reacting cupric acetate with a Schiff base in a 2:1 metal-to-ligand ratio. The Schiff base itself was synthesized via the condensation of benzidine and 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde in the presence of glacial acetic acid. This newly synthesized symmetric Schiff base served as the ligand for the Cu(II) metal ion complex. The ligand and its complex were characterized using several spectroscopic methods, including FTIR, UV-vis, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, CHNS, and AAS, along with TGA, molar conductivity and magnetic susceptibility measurements. The CuO nanoparticles were produced by thermally decomposing the

Show MoreIn this research, porous silicon (PS) prepared by anodization etching on surface of single crystalline p-type Si wafer, then Gold nanoparticle (AuNPs) prepared by pulsed laser ablation in liquid. NPs deposited on PS layer by drop casting. The morphology of PS, AuNPs and AuNPs/PS samples were examined by AFM. The crystallization of this sample was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The electrical properties and sensitivity to CO2 gas were investigated to Al/AuNPs/PS/c-Si/Al, we found that AuNPs plays crucial role to enhance this properties.
This study aimed to incorporate hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (nHA) or amorphous calcium phosphate nanoparticles (nACP) into a self-etch primer (SEP) to develop a simplified orthodontic bonding system with remineralizing and enamel preserving properties.
nHA and nACP were incorporated into a commercial SEP (Transbond™ plus) in 7% weight ratio and compared with the plain SEP as a control. Shear bond strengths (SBS), enamel damage, and adhesive remnant index (ARI) scores were evaluated at 24 h
This work aimed to investigate the prevalence of pathogenic fungi and evaluate the antifungal activity of Trichoderma orientale FMR12486 crude extract against pathogenic fungi isolated from patients attending the National Center for Thoracic and Respiratory Diseases (having a history of tuberculosis) and consultant of Dermatology of Baghdad hospital, Iraq. A total of 80 clinical specimens were collected: 20 skin scrapings specimens and 60 sputum specimens. The results of direct examination by KOH 10% and culture showed that 11 (55%) cases from 20 skin specimens were positive for fungal infections, while in the sputum specimens, 28 (47%) cases from 60 were positive. Candida albicans represented the most common fungal infection isolat

Show MoreAbstract: A novel design of Mach Zehnder Interferometer (MZI) in terms of using special type of optical fiber that has double clad with graded distribution of the refractive index that can be easily implemented practically was suggested and simulated in this work. The suggested design is compact, rapid, and is simple to be modified and tested. The simulated design contains a MZI of 1546.74 nm of central wavelength that is constructed using special type of double clad optical fiber that has two different numerical apertures. The first aperture will supply single mode propagation via its core, while the second numerical aperture supports a zigzag wave propagation (multimode) in the first clad region. The interferometer’s
