    The evolution of technology has increased the rate of traffic accidents that occurs frequently causing loss of lifeand property. Therefore, the automatic traffic monitoring system gradually attracted the attention of researchers in improvingtraffic safety through the field of intelligent transport systems. In this paper, a cost-effective approach based on GSM systemfor automatic traffic incident detection is proposed. This paper provides an optimal solution to reduce the death rate by usingthe vibration sensor and GSM system; the implementation system is based on hardware (circuits) and software to build agraphical user interface (GUI) using LabView TM to process the data. Sensors are installed into the vehicles on each side ofthe vehicle. An SMS will be sent to the user after the accident. This system will assist in search and rescue vehicle involved inthe accident

    This study aimed at investigating the factors that affect students' enjoyment in learning and teaching as recognized them self's. To achieve the purpose of this study the researcher developed a study instrument consisted of 45 items and distributed to five sub-domains. The study followed a descriptive analytical method. Validity and reliability were tested, then distributed on (637) students from upper elementary grades. Results of the study showed that "the implementation of learning resources" (83.74%) is the most important factor that affects students' enjoyment. The lowest factor that influences students' enjoyment of learning is "the teachers' teaching style" (56.93%). Further, the results showed that some factors such as: the implementation of learning resources, student's role in the classroom, and the administrative role are more influential in favor of female students. In addition, students' of high achievement increases their enjoyment level during utilizing learning resources. However, the impact of teacher's role on students' enjoyment was the least affected factor for students who have lower achievement level. Furthermore, there are no statistically significant differences related to the level of the school. In light of the findings, the researcher recommends that there is a need for providing opportunities that increase the active role of students. Further, administrators should engage more with students' activities. Crucial factors that increase enjoyment levels of students include focusing on implementing learning resources in teaching and encouraging students who have low achievement levels in the activities

    The current study aimed at exploring the awareness level of faculty members regarding ResearchGate website and the estimation of its effect on developing their research skills, and that of post graduate students at the University of Jordan. To achieve objectives of the study, the researcher developed research instrument, consisting of 28 items and two open-end questions. To answer questions of the study, averages, T-test and analysis of variance were calculated. Sample of study consisted of (135) members of faculty members. Results implicated that unawareness level of the website by most faculty members was the basic barrier for not using it. Best benefits of using ResearchGate were found to be: interacting with other researchers and being informed with the latest published studies for researchers of similar interests or discipline. Results also revealed differences in developing research skills, in favor of frequent visitors of the site, and those who interact with introduced raised issues. Obvious statistical difference was in favor of faculty members at scientific faculties, to be the most frequent users of the website. According to results, the researcher recommended that the university should provide the necessary infrastructures to help more teaching staff with access to the website, and urge teaching staff for paying more effort to utilize the website, which as a result proved to be of academic benefits for all interested parties

    In this paper, we extend the ordinary differential Duffing equation into a partial differential equation. We study the traveling wave solutions to this model by using the G\u27/G expansion method. Then, based on the obtained results given for the Duffing equation, we generate kink, singular soliton and periodic solutions for a coupled integrable dispersionless nonlinear system. All the solutions given in this work are verified

    Abstract- The aim of the research is identifying the extent of using the Iraqi investors from the stock exchange and the technical analysis by understanding the extent knowledge of the investor for dependence on taking investment decisions to enter or exit from the market. To prove the hypothesis of research, some companies in the bank sector listed in the Iraqi Stock Exchange were selected to be a research community, as a sample was selected composed of six banks to be a field of research. The research was based on a set of analysis indicator and supply chain management used in the forecasting process towards stock prices by (Simple average, rate of change, momentum, relative strength) in addition to some statistical tests such as Livens test, T test and F test according to the statistical program SPSS 20. The research reached that revolve around the existence of the statistical significance of the reliability of these indicators in the process of forecasting towards stock prices for the banking sector companies listed in the Iraq Stock Exchange to suit the Iraq environment conditions.

    Electrochemical investigation of novel reference electrode Ni/Ni(OH)â‚‚ in comparison with silver and platinum inert quasi-reference electrodes for electrolysis in eutectic molten hydroxide

    An efficient and green energy carrier hydrogen (H2) generation via water splitting reaction has become a major area of focus to meet the demand of clean and sustainable energy sources. In this research, the splitting steam via eutectic molten hydroxide (NaOH–KOH; 49–51 mol%) electrolysis for hydrogen gas production has been electrochemically investigated at 250–300 °C. Three types of reference electrodes such as a high-temperature mullite membrane Ni/Ni(OH)2, quasi-silver and quasi-platinum types were used. The primary purpose of this electrode investigation was to find a suitable, stable, reproducible and reusable reference electrode in a molten hydroxide electrolyte. Cyclic voltammetry was performed to examine the effect on reaction kinetics and stability to control the working electrode at different scan rate and molten salt temperature. The effect of introducing water to the eutectic molten hydroxide via the Ar gas stream was also investigated. When the potential scan rate was changed from 50 to 150 mV s−1, the reduction current for the platinum wire working electrode was not changed with newly prepared nickel reference electrode that designates its stability and reproducibility. Furthermore, increasing the operating temperature of molten hydroxides from 250 to 300 °C the reduction potential of the prepared nickel reference electrode is slightly positive shifted about 0.02 V. This suggests that it has good stability with temperature variations. The prepared nickel and Pt reference electrode exhibited stable and reliable cyclic voltammetry results with and without the presence of steam in the eutectic molten hydroxide while Ag reference electrode exposed positive shifts of up to 0.1 V in the reduction potential. The designed reference electrode had a more stable and effective performance towards controlling the platinum working electrode as compared to the other quasi-reference electrodes. Consequently, splitting steam via molten hydroxides for hydrogen has shown a promising alternative to current technology for hydrogen production that can be used for thermal and electricity generation
