EFFECT OF ADDING A MIXTURE OF LION’S MANE HERICIUM ERINACEUS AND REISHI MUSHROOM GANODERMA LUCIDUM TO BROILER DIETS ON THE PRODUCTIVE PERFORMANCE
...Show More Authors

The study was conducted in the poultry field of the Department of Animal Production/ College of Agricultural Engineering Sciences/ University of Baghdad/ Abu Ghraib, for the period from 28/04/2022 to 08/06/2022 to demonstrate the effect of adding a mixture of Lion’s mane Hericium erinaceus and Reishi Mushroom Ganoderma lucidum to broiler's diets on productive performance, 120 one day old Ross 308 breed broiler chicks were used in the experiment, with (10 birds / replicate) with an average starting weight of 49.95 g. The experiment treatments were as follows:(T1) basic diet control treatment free of any addition. (T2) the basic diet with the addition of 0.5 g/kg fodder of Lion's Mane mushroom with 0.5 g/kg fodder of the Reishi Mushroom. (T3) the basic diet with the addition of 0.75 g/kg fodder of Lion's Mane Mushroom with 0.75 g/kg fodder of Reishi Mushroom.(T4) basic diet with the addition of 1 g/ kg fodder of Lion's Mane Mushroom with 1 g / kg fodder of Reishi Mushroom. The results showed in the sixth week a highly significant increase (P<0.01) in the average weekly body weight for the two treatments T2 and T4 over the control treatment T1, while in the fifth week a high significant increase (P < 0.01) was obtained in the weekly average body weight of the T4 treatment over the T1 control treatment free of addition, while in the sixth week T2 and T4 outperformed the T1 control treatment, but regarding weight gain ratio, it was observed that a high significant increase was observed (P <0.01) for treatment T3 over treatment T2, and the results showed a significant increase in the feed consumption ratio for both T1 and T3 over treatment T2 in the third week, and it was noted that a high significant improvement (P<0.01) was achieved in the feed conversion ratio and clearly for the birds of T2 treatment compared to the control treatment T1 at the age of 6 weeks, and the results showed a significant improvement in the carcass weight of treatment T4 compared to T3 treatment, and a significant increase (P < 0.05) in the carcass weight of birds of T2 treatment, to whose diet a mixture of lion's mane mushroom was added by 0.5 g/kg and reishi mushroom by 0.5 g/kg compared with control treatment T1 and T3. We conclude from this study that adding a mixture of lion's mane mushroom with reishi mushroom in different proportions has a role in improving the productive performance of broiler.

Modeling and Simulation for Performance Evaluation of Optical Quantum Channels in Quantum key Distribution Systems
...Show More Authors

In this research work, a simulator with time-domain visualizers and configurable parameters using a continuous time simulation approach with Matlab R2019a is presented for modeling and investigating the performance of optical fiber and free-space quantum channels as a part of a generic quantum key distribution system simulator. The modeled optical fiber quantum channel is characterized with a maximum allowable distance of 150 km with 0.2 dB/km at =1550nm. While, at =900nm and =830nm the attenuation values are 2 dB/km and 3 dB/km respectively. The modeled free space quantum channel is characterized at 0.1 dB/km at =860 nm with maximum allowable distance of 150 km also. The simulator was investigated in terms of the execution of the BB84 p

Performance enhancement of natural asphalt using waste-derived modifiers: Sugarcane molasses and waste engine oil
...Show More Authors

The growing demand for sustainable and high-performance asphalt binders has prompted the exploration of waste-derived modifiers. This study investigates the performance enhancement of Natural Asphalt (NA) using Sugarcane Molasses (SM) and Waste Engine Oil (WEO). The modified blends were prepared by partially replacing 50 % NA with varying proportions of SM and WEO ranging from 10 % to 40 % of the total weight of NA. Comprehensive testing was conducted, including penetration, softening point, ductility, viscosity, Bending Beam Rheometer (BBR), Multiple Stress Creep Recovery (MSCR), Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDX), Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The results demonstrated that

Performance Evaluation of UDP, DCCP, SCTP and TFRC for Different Traffic Flow in Wired Networks
...Show More Authors

<p>The demand for internet applications has increased rapidly.  Providing quality of service (QoS) requirements for varied internet application is a challenging task. One important factor that is significantly affected on the QoS service is the transport layer. The transport layer provides end-to-end data transmission across a network. Currently, the most common transport protocols used by internet application are TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) and UDP (User Datagram Protocol). Also, there are recent transport protocols such as DCCP (data congestion control protocol), SCTP (stream congestion transmission protocol), and TFRC (TCP-friendly rate control), which are in the standardization process of Internet Engineering Task

Abstract<p>There is a great operational risk to control the day-to-day management in water treatment plants, so water companies are looking for solutions to predict how the treatment processes may be improved due to the increased pressure to remain competitive. This study focused on the mathematical modeling of water treatment processes with the primary motivation to provide tools that can be used to predict the performance of the treatment to enable better control of uncertainty and risk. This research included choosing the most important variables affecting quality standards using the correlation test. According to this test, it was found that the important parameters of raw water: Total Hardn</p> ... Show More

Performance measurements of single server fuzzy queues with unreliable server using left and right method

The fuzzy assignment models (FAMs) have been explored by various literature to access classical values, which are more precise in our real-life accomplishment. The novelty of this paper contributed positively to a unique application of pentagonal fuzzy numbers for the evaluation of FAMs. The new method namely Pascal's triangle graded mean (PT-GM) has presented a new algorithm in accessing the critical path to solve the assignment problems (AP) based on the fuzzy objective function of minimising total cost. The results obtained have been compared to the existing methods such as, the centroid formula (CF) and centroid formula integration (CFI). It has been demonstrated that operational efficiency of this conducted method is exquisitely develo
