The dynamics of the oil industry in shaping land uses: a case study of the Zubair oil field
...Show More Authors

The emergence of oil fields and subsequent changes in adjacent land use are known to affect settlements and communities. Everywhere the industry emerges, there is little understanding about the impact of oil fields on land use in the surrounding areas. The oil industry in Iraq is one of the most important industries and is almost the main industry in the Iraqi economic sector, and it is very clear that this industry is spread over large areas, and at the same time adjoins with population communities linked to it developmentally.

The rapid development and expansion of oil extraction activities in various regions has led to many challenges related to land-use planning and management. Here, the problem of research  arises on the  increase in waste of land use in favor of oil projects, which leads to spatial, environmental, social and economic imbalances that threaten the sustainability of land resources. Based on this problem, the aim of the research was to  analyze the current land uses in the Zubair oil field, and  to highlight the absence of planning principles and evaluation of various impacts.

The research has hypothesized that the application of comprehensive spatial planning principles can effectively manage the spatial,  environmental, economic and social impacts  arising from oilfield activities.

 This hypothesis was tested through a detailed descriptive analytical approach, using remote sensing techniques and geographic information systems (GIS) software.

 The integration of these tools facilitates the analysis and visualization of spatial data, enabling the classification of satellite imagery and the mapping of different land cover and land-use categories.

The importance of research lies in highlighting  the role of spatial planning and the need to apply it in industrial projects such as the oil industry to ensure coordination between industry returns and impacts.

The results of the research confirmed the lack of a coherent plan in land use within the study area,This led to competition for land occupation between different uses, which generated imbalances and inefficiencies. Furthermore, the expansion of oil-related activities raises significant environmental concerns, necessitating an examination of spatial impacts.

The research concludes with recommendations, the most important of which are the development of clear land use plans, stakeholder cooperation, continuous monitoring through GIS applications, the development of regulations for spatial signatures of projects, and adherence to sustainability standards in land use.

Studying the effect of temperature and treating time on some physical properties of carbon black
...Show More Authors

Samples prepared by using carbon black as a filler material and phenolic resin as a binder. The samples were pressed in a (3) cm diameter cylindrical die to (250)MPa and treated thermally within temperature range of (600-1000)oC for two and three hours. Physical properties tests were performed, like density, porosity, and X-ray tests. Moreover vicker microhardness and electric resistivity tests were done. From the results, it can be concluded that density was increased while porosity was decreased gradually with increasing temperature and treating time. In microhardness test, it found that more temperature and treating time cause more hardness. Finally the resistivity was decreased in steps with temperature and treating time. It can be c

Influence of Brucella melitensis Viability by the Activity of Classical Yoghurt Starter During Milk Fermentation
...Show More Authors

Brucella melitensis isolates were obtained from human infections , and milk which obtained from aborted sheep at Mosul city vicinity . One isolate from each source was used in carrying out this study. Brucella liquid culture was added to sheep milk at 2.5 % for treatments . To first treatment 2 % of yoghurt starter ( Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus and Streptococcus salivarius subsp. thermophilus ( 1: 1 ) ) . Second treatment was carried out without addition of yoghurt starter but the pH was lowered using lactic acid in pattern similar to first treatment . Third treatment was similar to the first treatment but contained buffer to alleviate the reduction in pH , which reduced to 6.1 in comparison to 4.9 of the first treatment .

Effect of Annealing Temperature and Thickness on the Structural and Optical Properties of CdSeThin Films
...Show More Authors

CdSe alloy has been prepared successfully from its high purity elements. Thin films of this alloy with different thicknesses (300,700)nm have been grown on glass substrates at room temperature under very low pressure (10-5)Torr with rate of deposition (1.7)nm/sec by thermal evaporation technique, after that these thin films have been heat treated under low pressure (10-2)Torr at (473,673)K for one hour. X-ray patterns showed that both CdSe alloy and thin films are polycrystalline and have the hexagonal structure with preferential orientation in the [100] and [002] direction respectively. The optical measurements indicated that CdSe thin films have allowed direct optical energy band gap, and it increases from (1.77- 1.84) eV and from

EFFECT OF STEEL FIBERS ADDITION ON THE BEHAVIOR OF HIGH STRENGTH CONCRETE CIRCULAR SHORT COLUMNS
...Show More Authors

loaded reinforced concrete circular short columns. An experimental investigation into the behavior
of 24 short reinforced concrete columns with and without steel fibers was carried out. The columns
had a circular section (200 mm diameter and 900 mm long). Test variables include concrete
strength, spacing of spiral reinforcement, and inclusion of steel fibers. The axial stress and axial
strains were obtained and used to evaluate the effects of the presence of steel fibers. It was found
that the addition of steel fibers slightly improves the load carrying capacity of the tested columns
whereas it significantly enhances the ductility of these specimens. Test results also indicated that for

Stability of the Finite Difference Methods of Fractional Partial Differential Equations Using Fourier Series Approach
...Show More Authors

The fractional order partial differential equations (FPDEs) are generalizations of classical partial differential equations (PDEs). In this paper we examine the stability of the explicit and implicit finite difference methods to solve the initial-boundary value problem of the hyperbolic for one-sided and two sided fractional order partial differential equations (FPDEs). The stability (and convergence) result of this problem is discussed by using the Fourier series method (Von Neumanns Method).
