The use of planning in crisis management and its impact on the educational sector: An analytical exploratory study at the Dor Institute of the Northern Technical University

The educational system in universities has been exposed to several crises, the most recent of which is the Corona crisis, which affected the educational systems followed and the latest change in the education system, which turned to e-learning systems to prevent the spread of the epidemic and preserve the lives of students from infection, so the types and forms of crisis management systems differed in the diversity of planning methods and what it contains From (realistic, comprehensive, coordination, integration, timing, participation, provision of the necessary resources), so the educational administration followed the distance education strategy with the availability of places for social distancing and keeping the geographical space allocated to the university as it is. In order to overcome the problem of availability and wide spaces for study halls and laboratories, various planning methods must be used, as it is possible to use crisis management approaches, given that crises have become an integral part of the fabric of contemporary life, and that the occurrence of crises has become a fact of daily life, and the name of each crisis has become It is associated with a special type of disaster. One of the characteristics of the crisis is entering into a circle of future unknowns that are difficult to know or accurately calculate, given that the real danger of the crisis does not go away or relates to the past and the present only, but is strongly oriented towards what the crisis may lead to in the future, so it required intensive professional training for workers In the field of education, on how to face crises, develop their awareness of the characteristics and nature of the crisis, and develop their skills that must be available in those managing the educational process to enable them to deal effectively with various crises . The study dealt with the correlation and the impact of planning and crisis management on the educational sector by relying on an academic sample of (128) teachers and academic staff

The role of accounting thought in the face of financial and administrative corruption in Iraq ( Applied and analytical study on the accounting and control units working in government institutions in Diwaniyah )

يسعى هذا البحث إلى معرفة الدور الذي يمكن إن يحققه الفكر المحاسبي في مواجهة الفساد المالي والإداري في العراق، فقد تعرض هذا  الفكر التقليدي للعديد من الانتقادات نظرا لقصوره في معالجة قضايا الفساد نتيجة مرونته وقصوره في تطبيق القواعد والمعايير والسياسات المحاسبية, فالفساد المالي والإداري يعد مشكلة مجتمعية، تهدد كل المجتمعات وخاصة العراق على وجه التحديد، فهذه المشكلة ترتبط برغبة الإنسان في الحصول على مكاسب مادية طائلة بطرق غير مشروعة، والسبب في ذلك يعود إلى ضعف الأنظمة المحاسبية والرقابية من المنظورين المالي والإداري، وكذلك غياب دور المساءلة المحاسبية، فالفساد المالي والإداري استشرى في المؤسسات والدوائر الحكومية كالنار في الهشيم وعلى مختلف المستويات فلا يوجد مفصل من مفاصل الدولة أو احد مؤسساتها إلا وفيه شيء من الفساد ابتداء من التقاعس في انجاز الإعمال والواجبات المكلفين بها  فالوظائف المحاسبية والرقابية العامة أخذت تفقد هيبتها وتجهز على الإعمال والانجازات التي تحققها الأجهزة الإدارية التي ينشدها أفراد المجتمع. ومن اجل تحقيق هدف هذا البحث فقد تم استخدام المنهج التحليلي والتطبيقي، في تحليل مشكلة الفساد المالي والإداري في العراق، ثمّ استنتاج طرق المواجهة من خلال الفكر المحاسبي، كذلك محو الآثار السيئة التي خلفها الفساد المالي والإداري في الاقتصاد العراقي، ومما يترتب عليه من نهضة وتقدم اقتصادي شامل في العراق. This research seeks to know the role that accounting thinking can play in the face of financial and administrative corruption in Iraq. This traditional thinking has been criticized for its lack of dealing with corruption issues due to its flexibility and lack of application of accounting rules and standards. Financial and administrative corruption is a societal problem , Threatens all societies, especially Iraq in particular, this problem is linked to the desire of the human to obtain substantial material gains by illegal means, due to the weakness of accounting and control systems from the financial and administrative perspectives, as well as the absence of the role of accountability For accounting, financial and administrative corruption consulted in institutions and government departments such as wildfire at various levels there is no detailed joints of the state or one of its institutions except in it a bit of corruption from the failure to complete the work and the duties assigned to them, the functions of accounting and public control has lost prestige and equipped to work and achievements Achieved by the administrative organs sought by members of society.     In order to achieve the objective of this research, the analytical and applied approach was used to analyze the problem of financial and administrative corruption in Iraq, and then to conclude the methods of confrontation through accounting thought, as well as to erase the bad effects of financial and administrative corruption in the Iraqi economy and the consequent renaissance and progress Comprehensive economic in Iraq.   &nbsp

OPTIMIZATION OF DRUG SOLUBILITY USING ASPEN PLUS: ACETYLSALICYLIC ACID (ASPIRIN) SOLUBILITY – A SECOND CASE STUDY

Objective: The objective of the study is to optimize the solubility of a drug or a drug-like molecule using Aspen Plus simulation platform. Aspirin (solute) was taken as the second case study. The following solvents were used in our dry (virtual) laboratory experiment: Water, acetone, ethanol, and ethylene-glycol-mono-propyl-ether (PROPGLYC). Methods: A simplified process flow sheet made of a single mixing tank where it has five feed streams, representing the solute, the water, and the set of three organic solvents, and one product stream where aspirin is either solubilized (liquid solution) or remains as solid crystal. Minimization of the molar Gibbs free energy of mixing, ΔGmix, was used as an objective function from an optimization point of view. The Non-random Two-liquid property method was used to analyze the solution properties. Results: Using the molar Gibbs free energy of mixing, ΔGmix, as a criterion of solution thermodynamic stability, it was found that the most stable solution is the quinary mixture made of 24.42% aspirin, 10.22% water, 21.08% acetone, 19.51% ethanol, and 24.77 mole % PROPGLYC. Conclusions: Exploiting Aspen Plus can be extended to handle the solubility of a new drug-like molecule once it is defined within its molecular editor with a little knowledge such as density and/or melting point
