The semiology of culture and the sign variable in a theatre performance: Iraqi theatre as an example
...Show More Authors

The culture of theatre performance has a vital role in the process of reading the linguistic and visual signs of the performance. And the process of transforming a theatre performance from its original context into a new hosting cultural context starts from the actual reading of the text. Directors derives their new signs out of his personal culture, depending on the society where they lives and the culture that forms the social conventions, traditions and beliefs. The text is usually written within its own historical and temporal culture. The process of its production usually takes it away from its original culture, when it interprets the codes of the original writer and their visual and linguistic signs and instils new alternative signs that belong to the new culture. All the other signs of a theatrical performance such as, lights, décor, costumes, music, actors and make up submit to the say process of moving away from their original identity, and when these signs move away from one cultural context into another different one, they lose the element of being genuine and earn new significances driven from the new hosting context. Methodology: includes the problem of the project, its importance and aim. Theoretical frame: the paper includes two: first is the concept of the semiology of culture, and second is the variable of signs in a theatre discourse.The procedures of the paper includes the methodology, the society of the research, the sample, the means, and finally there is the sample analysis that is represented by the play: In the Heights of Love by Falah Shaker, After that the researcher shows the results of the paper, the most important of which is that: 'The culture forms a resource and a reference for the signs within a theatre performance, since the theatre performance focuses on the cultural references for the text, which may form an obstacle against the sign change when moving that theatre performance into a new cultural context.' Finally the researcher listed his resources and references, followed by the abstract in English

An Investigation into Thermal Performance of Mist Water System and The Related Consumption Energy
...Show More Authors

Experimental tests were conducted to investigate the thermal performance (cooling effect) of water mist system consisting of 5μm volume median diameter droplets in reducing the heat gain entering a room through the roof and the west wall by reducing the outside surface temperature due to the evaporative cooling effect during the hot dry summer of Baghdad/Iraq. The test period
was Fifty one days during the months May, June, and July 2012. The single test day consists of 16 test hours starting from 8:00 am to 12:00 pm. The results showed a reduction range of 1.71 to 15.5℃ of the roof outside surface temperature and 21.3 to 76.6% reduction in the daily heat flux entering the room through the roof compared with the case of not using w

Performance Enhancement of a Piezoelectric Harvester Included into an Autonomous System
...Show More Authors

Autonomous systems are these systems which power themselves from the available ambient energies in addition to their duties. In the next few years, autonomous systems will pervade society and they will find their ways into different applications related to health, security, comfort and entertainment. Piezoelectric harvesters are possible energy converters which can be used to convert the available ambient vibration energy into electrical energy. In this contribution, an energy harvesting cantilever array with magnetic tuning including three piezoelectric bimorphs is investigated theoretically and experimentally. Other than harvester designs proposed before, this array is easy to manufacture and insensitive to manufacturi
