This study shows how the structural and dielectric properties of (SnO2)1-x(Mn2O3)x, (where x=0.00, 0.03, 0.05,0.07, and 0.09) prepared using the solid state reaction technique, are affected by the doping of semiconducting metal oxide Mn2O3. Structural analysis of the composites was carried out using information from the composite samples obtained from X-ray diffraction (XRD). The diffraction peak shifting in XRD patterns indicated that Mn ions were successfully incorporated into the SnO2 crystal lattice. Mn ions were successfully doped in the Tin oxide matrix lattice with the subsequent increase of doping levels. The average crystal size evaluated usi
... Show MoreThis study employed a simple hydrolysis method to synthesize two novel nanocomposites: ZnO/g-C3N4 (ZCN) and TiO2/g-C3N4 (TCN). Characterization results confirmed the successful integration of ZnO and TiO2 nanoparticles onto g-C3N4 nanosheets, resulting in enhanced optical absorption in the visible light region. Both synthesized ZCN and TCN composites exhibited higher photocatalytic degradation efficiency of the antibiotic doxycycline under visible light irradiation compared to their individual component materials. This enhancement is attributed to the formation of heterojunction between TiO2 or ZnO and porous g-C3N4

After they were converted to ordinary differential equations. We verified the numerical results through the graphs of all the physical parameters and used the regular perturbation method to reach the numerical solutions for both the axial velocity and flow fu

In our model, we divided susceptible individuals into two separate groups: one for high-risk individuals and another for those at low risk. In this work, we have proved theorems about the non-negativity and boundedness of the solutions. Afterward, we obtained a disease-free equilibrium point and an endemic equilibrium point. We calculated the basic reproduction number using the next-generation matrix method and then we expressed theorems about the local and global stability of equilibria, finally, we have gone to the sensitivity analysis and numerical analysis.

The current results would generalize and improve some corresponding recent works. Additionally, in certain cases, our estimates correct some of the existing coefficient bounds.
This paper's primary goal is to present the connection between coding theory and the projective space PG(5,q) of order q, where q={2,3,4,5,7,8,9,11} It was determined whether or not the [n,k,d]-code is perfect. Where n is the length of the code, k is the code dimension, and d is the minimum distance, were calculated with error correction e according to the incidence matrix. We have found that the [n,k,d]-code in PG(5,q), q= {2,3,4,5,7,8,9,11}, is perfect if e = 1.
A field experiment was conducted in the fields of the University of Baghdad to determine the effect of clover residues mixed with the soil in which the barley crop (Arviat variety) was planted. Residues of two varieties of clover (Red clover and Egyptian clover) were added at a rate of 3 and 6grams of plant residues. Two control treatments were also implemented with 3 and 6 grams of barley straw for comparison purposes. The results showed that the clover residues significantly reduced the germination and growth of the barley crop. However, this inhibition increased significantly when plant residues were added to the Egyptian clover variety at concentrations of 3 and 6grams, achieving inhibition in the germination of barley seeds.

X-dynamic of Rossler system was coupled optically using optical fiber as a carrier of signal with x, y, and z-dynamics of Chua system. The results were analyzed and the behavior of Chua system was found to be changing in time series which, in turn, changed the attractor. The Chua attractor was converted from double scroll to single scroll. The results obtained from connecting two different systems in chaotic behavior showed a remarkable increase in the bandwidth of Chua system. This increase in bandwidth opens up a wide field for many

The obtained equation was used to construct a Bouguer anomaly map of Iraq depending on the available gravity base stations. This map was compared with the Bouguer map constructed for the same stations using the international formula (1930). Good similarity in shapes and locations of the anomaly were observed, while the gravity anomaly values in the new map were increased by about 30 mGal. The eastern zero gravity contour line of the new obtained gravity map coincides with the western boundary of the tectonic Mesopotamian zone, while the main negative gravity values coincide with the Mesopotami

Finally, a comparison was made between the three algorithms (modified greedy algorithm, Backpropagation algorithm and the result in (11)
Given a binary matrix, finding the maximum set of columns such that the resulting submatrix has the Consecutive Ones Property (C1P) is called the Consecutive Ones Submatrix (C1S) problem. There are solution approaches for it, but there is also a room for improvement. Moreover, most of the studies of the problem use exact solution methods. We propose an evolutionary approach to solve the problem. We also suggest a related problem to C1S, which is the Consecutive Blocks Minimization (CBM). The algorithm is then performed on real-world and randomly generated matrices of the set covering type.

Improving the performance of visual computing systems is achieved by removing unwanted reflections from a picture captured in front of a glass. Reflection and transmission layers are superimposed in a linear form at the reflected photographs. Decomposing an image into these layers is often a difficult task. Plentiful classical separation methods are available in the literature which either works on a single image or requires multiple images. The major step in reflection removal is the detection of reflection and background edges. Separation of the background and reflection layers is depended on edge categorization results. In this paper a wavelet transform is used as a prior estimation of background edges to sepa

Etherification of n-hexanol, n-heptanol and n-octanol with propargyl bromide in the presence of sodium hydroxide in DMF afforded the terminal alkynes (2) a, b and c. Phenacyl bromide, p-bromophenacyl bromide and p-phenylphenacyl bromide were converted to corresponding azides (4) a, b and c respectively by traditional SN2 reaction of the mentioned bromides and sodium azide in DMF. The cycloaddition of the propargyl ethers (2) with the prepared organic azides (4) using click conditions gave the target 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3- triazoles (5)-(7) in good yields. All the synthesized triazoles were characterized by FT-IR while the compounds (5) a,b and c were characterized by 1H NMR and 13C NMR in addition to FT-IR technique.
