Enhancing Asphalt Performance and Its Long-Term Sustainability with Nano Calcium Carbonate and Nano Hydrated Lime
...Show More Authors

Nanomaterials enhance the performance of both asphalt binders and asphalt mixtures. They also improve asphalt durability, which reduces resource consumption and environmental impact in the long term associated with the production and transportation of asphalt materials. Thus, this paper studies the effectiveness of Nano Calcium Carbonate (Nano CaCO3) and Nano Hydrated Lime (NHL) as modifiers and examines their impact on ranges from 0% to 10% through comprehensive laboratory tests. Softening point, penetration, storage stability, viscosity, and mass loss due to short-term aging using the Rolling Thin Film Oven Test (RTFO) were performed on asphalt binders. Results indicated a significant improvement in binder stiffness, particularly at 4% Nano CaCO3 and 6% NHL content by weight. Dynamic Shear Rheometer (DSR) tests further revealed substantial improvements in rutting resistance, with NHL exhibiting superior high-temperature stability and a notable increase in the rutting factor. Marshall stability tests on asphalt concrete (AC) mixtures showed a 22.3% increase in stability with 6% NHL by weight, surpassing the 20.2% improvement observed with Nano CaCO3 and indicating enhanced load-bearing capacity. The resilient modulus of the mixtures consistently increased with the addition of NHL, suggesting improved durability in rutting. Moisture susceptibility tests revealed that NHL significantly enhances moisture resistance, exceeding the 80% TSR benchmark at just 2% content by weight and reaching an impressive 94.6% at 10% content by weight. In contrast, Nano CaCO3 demonstrated a more gradual improvement, achieving an 88.2% TSR at 10% content. Furthermore, permanent deformation analysis indicated a 68.64% improvement in rutting resistance with 10% NHL content by weight, exceeding Nano CaCO3’s improvement rate. Optimal fatigue resistance was achieved at 4% for Nano CaCO3 and 6% for NHL by weight, with respective CT index improvements of 30% and 35.4%, showing NHL’s consistent benefits across various nanomaterial contents. Overall, the study suggests that both Nano CaCO3 and NHL positively impact asphalt performance, with NHL offering more pronounced benefits across a range of properties. These findings provide valuable insights for pavement engineers and underscore NHL’s potential as an effective additive in asphalt mixture design. Real-world applications and validations are essential for a comprehensive understanding of these nanomaterials in practical pavement engineering scenarios.

The susceptibility test of vaginal yeasts and their relationship with the age in Iraqi women
...Show More Authors

This study aims to isolate the pathogenic yeasts from genital tract and investigate their relationship with the age .The results clarified that the most pathogenic yeast isolated from genital tract was Candida albicans , also the results of C.albicanas isolates susceptibility test, to different antifungal revealed that they were sensitive to Miconazole, Ketoconazole and Clotrimazol and were resistant to Nystatin and Grisofulvin. The study of relationship of vaginal infection with the age showed that the incidence of infection with Candida was high among females age group (19-39 years).

Phase transformation study of Iraqi Bentonite with Al2O3 and MgO as additions at high temperatures
...Show More Authors

Iraqi bentonite is used as main material for preparing ceramic samples with the additions of alumina and magnesia. X-ray diffractions analyses were carried out for the raw material at room temperature. The sequence of mineral phase's transformations of the bentonite for temperatures 1000 ,1100 ,1200 and 1250 ºC reflects that it finally transformed in to mullite 39.18% and cristobalite 62.82%. Samples of different weight constituent were prepared. The effect of its constitutional change reveals through its heat treatments at 1000,1100,1200,1250and 1300ºC .The samples of additions less than 15% of alumina and magnesia could not stand up to 1300ºC while the samples of addition more than 15% are stable .That is shown by analy

On the Connection between the Dynamical System and the Ellis Compactification with Transitive Pointed System
...Show More Authors

In this paper, some relations between the flows and the Enveloping Semi-group were studied. It allows to associate some properties on the topological compactification to any pointed flows. These relations enable us to study a number of the properties of the principles of flows corresponding with using algebric properties. Also in this paper proofs to some theorems of these relations are given.

Role of CoQ10 and IGFBP-1 in Obese Male Patients with Diabetic Mellitus Type II
...Show More Authors

Study the role of CoQ10 and IGFBP-1 in obese male patients with diabetic mellitus type 2. ELISA method was used to assay Serum CoQ10 and IGFBP-1. Blood was taken with drawn sample from 30 obese normal patients with age range (40-60) years, 30 diabetic patients with age range (40-60) years at duration of disease (1-5) years and 30 normal healthy patients. The mean difference between T2DM according to CoQ10 (12.5±1.1) was decreased than the mean of IFG (21.8±3.2) (P 0.002) and the mean difference between T2DM according to IGFBPs (0.65±0.06) was decreased than the mean of IFG (3.2±0.3) (P 0.000). While no significant difference between mean age of DM2 patients (55.5±1.06), and IFG (55.6±0.9) (p 0.90), no significant difference bet

The use of ARIMA, ANN and SVR models in time series hybridization with practical application
...Show More Authors

Forecasting is one of the important topics in the analysis of time series, as the importance of forecasting in the economic field has emerged in order to achieve economic growth. Therefore, accurate forecasting of time series is one of the most important challenges that we seek to make the best decision, the aim of the research is to suggest employing hybrid models to predict daily crude oil prices. The hybrid model consists of integrating the linear component, which represents Box Jenkins models, and the non-linear component, which represents one of the methods of artificial intelligence, which is the artificial neural network (ANN), support vector regression (SVR) algorithm and it was shown that the proposed hybrid models in the predicti
