Theoretical study of the impact of quantum chemistry parameters on the behaviour al effect of the coating of a new epoxy prepolymer

The aim of our work is to evaluate the performance behavior of the coating of macromolecule epoxy matrix, tri glycidyl ether ethylene of bisphenol A (TGEEBA) on the corrosion of the carbon steel E24 in a marine environment and examine its mechanism of the coating. Subsequently, we have studied the possible adsorption model on the surface of the carbon steel E24 corroded and can explain the understanding of the interactions between the coating macromolecule and the surface of the carbon steel E24. The coating effect on carbon steel E24 was studied by quantum chemical calculations. The adsorption of TGEEBA on the surface of the carbon steel E24 has been well described by the model Quantitative Structure Property Relationship (QSPR).The mechanism of the behavior of the coating was determined by a potential of zero-load measurement and some electronic parameters. The prediction of the behavior of the coating was carried out by the method of three Becke compounds of the parameter (UB3LYP) whose semi-empirical basis are PM6 and DFT for an eventual composite. These last were used on the basis of (6-311 G). All calculations were performed using Gaussian software bias (03)

The 43GHz SiO maser in the circumstellar envelope of the AGB star R Cassiopeiae

We present multi-epoch, total intensity, high-resolution images of 43GHz, v=1, J=1-0 SiO maser emission toward the Mira variable R Cas. In total we have 23 epochs of data for R Cas at approximate monthly intervals over an optical pulsation phase range from 0.158 to 1.78. These maps show a ring-like distribution of the maser features in a shell, which is assumed to be centred on the star at a radius of 1.6 to 2.3 times the stellar radii. It is clear from these images that the maser emission is significantly extended around the star. At some epochs a faint outer arc can be seen at 2.2 stellar radii. The intensity of the emission waxes and wanes during the stellar phase. Some maser features are seen infalling as well as outflowing. We have made initial comparisons of our data with models by Gray et. al. (2009).Comment: 12 pages, 14 figure

New matrix cement-zeolite for the cementation of radioactive waste: study of the physical properties and mechanical performances

In the aim to improve the physical properties and the mechanical performance of the confinement matrix of spent of use Ion Exchange Resin (IER) considered among the radioactive waste of low and medium activity of long-lifetime, various formulations of the cementitious matrix based of different percentages of zeolite raining form 2% to 10% by weight of cement with a step of 2% have been developed. The physical properties (compactness) and the mechanical performance (the compressive strength) of the new cement- zeolite matrix have been investigated.The obtained experimental results from the different formulations elaborated showed that the partial substitution of cement by the zeolite improves significantly the physical properties and the mechanical performances of the last one, this is due mainly to the pozzolanic properties of zeolite related to their reactive SiO2 and Al2O3, Which react with Ca(OH)2, released during the hydration of cement and transforming it into aluminates and gels C-S-H. In consequence, the microstructure of the hardened cementitious matrix has improved; its compactness and its mechanical resistance of compression were increased also

Facies analysis and stratigraphic development of the Albian Succession in Nasiriyah Oil Field, Southern Iraq

The Carbonate - Clastic succession in this study is represented by the Nahr Uamr and Mauddud Formations deposited during the Albian Sequence. This study includes facies analysis and stratigraphic development for this succession in 5 boreholes within Nasiriyah oil field. There are several types of microfacies were recognized in the succession of the Mauddud Formation. Their characteristic grain types and depositional texture enabled the recognition of six facies associations (depositional environments) were distinguished in the Mauddud Formation, they are: shallow open marine, restricted, reef, slope, deep open marine and basinal. Two types of rocks are observed within the Nahr Umr Formation; the first is the upper part which characterized by shale dominated rocks and the second (lower part) is characterized by sand dominated rocks. Four facies associations (depositional environments) were distinguished in the Nahr Umr Formation, they are: delta plain, prodelta, bay fill, and distributary channels. The microfacies analysis and reconstructed the paleoenvironments of the Albain basin in the studied area; there are three stages of the deposition: - during the first stage the sea level was rise which led to progress prodelta facies (retrogradation) and onlapping the unconformity. This part is represented by TST stage in all studied boreholes. The prodelta facies was changed to distributary channel facies up-wared to mark the mfs between these two facies. This refers to deposition during the high stand period as two cycles. The sea level was reactivated to progress after the last step of Nahr Umr deposition, to start the Mauddud Formation deposition. At second stage the facies change was shown three steps of the sea level rise (TST) to deposition the restricted, reef-back reef and shallow open marine/slope. Overlying the slope facies to the shallow marine and then deposited the shallow marine refer to maximum flooding surfaces after deposition the last ones. Therefore, the shallowing up-ward succession which deposition later was represented the high stand stage (HST). The final stage is represented by reactivated the sea level rise to deposition the basinal facies within the Mauddud Formation. The continued rise in sea level during the period of transgression (TST) is a preparation for the Ahmadi basin, which is characterized by deposition in a deep environment and conformable lower contact with the Mauddud Formation

Study ABO / Rh Systems with IL-18 & IL-33 in Iraqi Patients with Diabetes Mellitus Type II

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) is a group of metabolic disorder disease. The inflammatory markers act as a new risk factor for development of type 2 diabetes with a possible association with ABO/Rh blood groups. Human ABO genes are located on chromosome 9q34.1-q34.2. The aim of this study was to investigate the possible association between inflammatory markers, interleukin (IL) -18 and IL-33 in type 2DM and ABO blood groups. Sixty four patients with newly diagnosed type2 DM and control group consist of twenty healthy Iraqi individual. Laboratory test were include ABO blood groups using standard serological procedures and detection IL-18 and IL-33 in serum by ELISA kits. The Present data showed a significant increase in the serum level of IL-18 between type 2 DM patients and control, while there was no significant difference in the serum level of IL-33. At the same time both study blood groups O patients & control showed lowest level of serum IL-18, while blood group A with allele A showed less concentration of IL-33 in patients & control. Blood group O showed the highest percentage in patients & control, also Rh positive showed higher percentage. In conclusion, positive relation between IL-18 concentration and risk of type 2 DM, thus may be a predictor for newly diagnostic diabetic patient, while Serum levels of IL-33 might be a predictor marker of disease progression. No associations were found between ABO & Rh groups with type 2 DM

Effect of irrigation methods and tillage system, seed level on water use efficiency and wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) growth

Afield trial was conducted at Al- Hashimya area, Babylon district, Iraq during the growing seasons 2016-2017 and 2017-2018 to investigate the effect of some agronomic practices viz. irrigation system ( sprinkler irrigation (I1) and surface irrigation (I2) which occupied the main plots; tillage system (Zero tillage (T0), minimum tillage (T1) and deep tillage (T2) which occupied the subplot ); and seeding rates (120 Kg ha-1( S1), 180 Kg ha-1(S2),240 Kg ha-1 (S3)and 300 Kg ha-1 (S4) which occupied the sub _ subplots on biological yield, harvest index, water _use efficiency, water consumptive use, crop coefficient of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Results indicated that biological yield was increased in both seasons by 9 and 10%, respectively, following the application of sprinkler irrigation. This may be due to the increased water _use efficiency by 29 and 32% in both seasons, respectively, as influenced by sprinkler irrigation. However, sprinkler irrigation did not affect the harvest index in both seasons. Similarly, minimum tillage increased the biological yield by 10.6,10.2,11.8 and 3.4 % over zero _ tillage and deep tillage in both seasons, respectively. However, the tillage system had no significant effect on the harvest index in both seasons. The seeding rate (240 Kg ha-1) increased the biological yield by 15.1 and 16.0 % over the lowest seeding rate (S1 120 Kg ha-1) with no significant effect on the harvest index in both seasons, respectively. The exciting result that the application of sprinkler irrigation (I1) decreased the consumptive use mm. Season in both seasons and consequently the crop coefficient(Kc) was decreased at tillering, elongation, flowering and maturity stages in both seasons. It can be concluded that the application of sprinkler irrigation under the minimum tillage and using the seeding rate 240 Kg ha-1 has increased the biological yield via increased water – use efficiency and decreased both consumptive use and crop coefficient

Experimental Study Of Natural Convection Heat Transfer In An Enclosed Vibration Cavity

Experimental study has been implemented to elucidate an affect of mechanical vibration at  normal gravity on natural convection in cubic enclosure  side (L=120mm) filled with air ( 14Pr=0.71)">  at two amount of heat flux (. The enclosure was comprised of two vertical and opposed surfaces. The right wall was heated at uniform heat flux where the left wall cooled was maintained at 14Tc"> , surrounded by four other adiabatic surfaces. Vibration stresses were applied to this heat transfer cell by mounting it vertically on the armature of electrodynamic vibratior. The experiments were carried out at for Rayleigh number range ( 147*107-4*108)"> and aspect ratio equal (1), frequencies from 2to 8 Hertz at 14q""> =85 14Wm2">  and from 3 to 9 Hertz at 946.017 14Wm2"> ). In the high Rayleih number case (Ra=4* 14108"> ), the gravitional thermal convection dominates, and the vibration motion does not enhances the heat transfer remarkably. In contrast, in low Rayleigh (Ra=7* 14107"> ), the vibration thermal convection is dominant, and the vibration enhaces the heat transfer rate significantly. In addition, the higher the vibration frequency is, the quicker the steady stateis reached and for two cases of Rayeigh number at ascending frequencies is in general higher than that descending frequencies.
