Accuracy Evaluation of Digital Elevation Model Created Using Handheld Global Positioning System Receivers
...Show More Authors

This study aims to assess the accuracy of digital elevation model (DEM) created with utilization of handheld Global Positioning System (GPS) and comparing with Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer Global Digital Elevation Model (ASTER GDEM), version 2. It is known that the quality of the DEM is affected by both of accuracy of elevation at each pixel (absolute accuracy) and accuracy of presented morphology (relative accuracy). The University of Baghdad, Al Jadriya campus was selected as a study area to create and analysis the resulting DEM. Additionally, Geographic Information System (GIS) was used to visualize, analyses and interpolate GPS track points (elevation data) of the study area. In this research, three additional DEMs were created using 60%, 30% and 15% of the all GPS track points to deduce the effect of the number of the included points on the accuracy of the resulting DEM. The study findings show a high resolution for the resulting DEM less than 5m when taking into consideration all GPS tracking points that observed in this research. Moreover, the resulting DEM has relative accuracy better than absolute accuracy and reaches to around 2m. By comparing with ground control points (reference points), the quality of handheld GPS DEM shows considerable improvement better than ASTER GDEM. Thus, this study indicates to improve the accuracy level of handheld GPS DEM by about 40% with increasing the observed number of GPS track points to twice.

A comparative anatomic study of leaves of the genus Stachys L. in Iraq
...Show More Authors

The anatomic characteristics of the leaves of 22 taxa of Stachys L. representing seven of the currently recognized sections distributed in northern Iraq, were examined. The study did not found any variations in the characteristics of the stomata system of the leaves.Therewere variations with a good taxonomic value in other anatomic characteristics.Thevariations in characters of the mesophyll tissue in S.kurdica var.brevidens Bom ex Bhattacharjeewas bifacial but in S.kurdica var.kurdica Boiss. & Hohen.was unifacial .The study also found that the taxa S.benthamiana Bioss., S.lanigera (Bornm.)

A Study of Synthesis and Characterization of New Aromatic Poly(amide-imide)s
...Show More Authors

New thermally stable aromatic poly(amide-imide)s ( PAI1- PAI4 ) were synthesized from direct polycondensation reaction of Terephthalic acid and Phthalic acid with two new different diamine monomers derivatives of 1,2,4,5-tetracarboxilic benzene dianhydride as a second diacides in a medium consisting of triphenyl phosphite (TPP) in N-methyl-2pyrrolidone (NMP) / pyridine solution containing dissolved calcium chloride CaCl2. The polymerization reaction produced a series of novel poly(amide-imide) in high yield. The new monomers were characterized by FTIR, 1H-NMR spectroscopy. The resulting polymers were typically characterized by means of FT-IR, 1H-NMR spectroscopy, and solubility tests. Thermal properties of the poly(amide-imide)s were als

Design and Operation of Mini-TEA CO2 Laser and Investigation of Preionization Effect
...Show More Authors

A Mini-TEA CO2 laser system was designed and operated to obtain a pulse at 10.6 μm. Output energy of 30 mJ, with preionization pins, and pulse duration of 100ns were obtained. While an output energy of 6mJ and pulse duration of 100 ns in absence of pre-ionization were obtained. The system was operated with Ernest profile main-discharge electrodes. Dependencies of supply voltage and output laser energy on the pressure inside laser cavity were investigated as well as dependencies of supply voltage and output energy on the main capacitor(8CO2 : 8N2 : 82He :2CO). Efficiency of was calculated to be 4.4%.

Theoretical Study of New Derivative of Cefotaxime-Amic Acid as a Corrosion Inhibitor
...Show More Authors

PM3 and DFT quantum mechanical calculations were employed to give further
insight into the inhibition efficiency of the newly prepared cefotaxime amic acid
derivative. The calculated physical properties and quantum chemical parameters
correlated to the inhibition efficiency such as EHOMO (highest occupied molecular
orbital energy), ELUMO (lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy), the energy gap
(ΔE(HOMO-LUMO)), hardness (η), softness (S), dipole moment (μ), electron affinity
(EA), ionization potential (IE) and active site absorption..…etc., all studied and
discussed at equilibrium geometry in the gas phase and at its right symmetry (C1).
Experimentally the newly prepared cefotaxime derivative could be abso

Effect of the Number of Gaussian Points and Their Distribution on Image Quality
...Show More Authors

This  research  involves  studying  the  influence  of  increasing  the

number of Gaussian points and the style of their distribution, on a circular exit pupil, on the numerical calculations accuracy of the point spread function for an ideal optical system and another system having focus error of (0.25 A. and 0.5 A. )

It was shown that the accuracy of the results depends on the type of

distributing points on the exit pupil. Also, the accuracy increases with the increase of the number of points (N) and the increase of aberrations which requires on increas (N).

God Almighty set out to build mosques, and he commanded to seek their architecture, and the competition for them, and allocate them with types of worship that are not valid in others, and to preserve their sanctity and not to be degraded and taken for mundane purposes and special benefits, because they are considered one of the most prominent features of Islam and the rituals of Islamic society, so this research came to show the rule Sharia in various and contemporary issues that are needed by the imams of the mosques, their rulers, and those responsible for them. Among the issues in which they have examined comparative juristic research and reached the most correct opinion are:
