EFFECT OF THE EXCITED VOLTAGE RISE TIME ON THE CORONA DISCHARGE CHARACTERISTICS
ALi Hussein, Qais Algwari (Author)
March 2023 ,Pages 12.0-21.0

Abstract: In this paper, the rise time of the exciting voltage on the DC corona discharge characteristics in a coaxial electrode system is presented. The current one-dimensional simulation study focused on the distribution of the plasma species (ions and electrons as well as the excited atoms) during two different times of the applied voltage climb was classified as a fast rise time (615 ns) and a slow rise time (2710 ns). The growth time of the corona excited voltage was controlled by the external feed RC circuit that connected with the central electrode. The simulation results reveal that the corona inception which occurs at a fast rise time produces more dense plasma charged species, while the density of the excited atoms is not much affected by the applied voltage climb time. The density of excited atoms tends to depend on the rise time of the exciting voltage at the steady state.

Abstract: Cell phones, also known as mobile or portable phones, have become an essential part of contemporary communication technologies. In some regions of the world, they are even the only available means of communication, as they are so well-liked for allowing people to communicate with one another without having any impact on their movements. Cell phones are becoming increasingly popular, with more than 50% of people in some nations owning one. The industrial community anticipates that by the year 2030, there will be more than 8 billion users worldwide. To accommodate broadcast and reception, more cell phone stations (towers) are being built. These stations, which are radio antennas, work to protect connections with cellular telephone equipment while using minimum power. The goal of this proposed study is to measure the electromagnetic fields radiated by cell phone towers and their effects on the local environment in a selected area of Mosul, Iraq. The results will then be compared to international standards, evaluated to help develop methods for protecting people's health, and solutions to the issue will be offered.

March 2023 ,Pages 56.0-70.0

Abstract: The electron distribution function for gallium arsenide GaAs was calculated by using the Boltzmann transition equation in the central valley , for a range of low fields relative to the threshold field (E0 = 5.95Kv/cm) (0.3-1)E0. To obtain the distribution function, the Boltzmann transport equation was solved using a mechanism that combines the analytical and numerical methods. Analytical method involving extension of the Legendre polynomial was used and the effect of polar optical scattering was introduced as the dominant scattering mechanism in this research, as well as the effect of an asymmetric energy band structure with spherical energy surfaces in the central valley. After obtaining a partial differential equation of the second order, it is solved numerically after separation process for the variables using the direct matrix method in energy space by building a mathematical program using MATLAB. In this study, a system with dimensions of 360 × 360 was built, and the rate of change in energy was taken as 0.001.The computational system was tested by applying low electric fields, and the distribution function that was obtained had a Maxwellian distribution at very low fields, and it shifted from the Maxwellian distribution at higher fields close to the threshold field, and the results obtained were agree with previous results. While this system did not give accurate results at the high-electric fields.

March 2023 ,Pages 81.0-90.0

Abstract:          Several scientific and engineering applications are usually described as integral equations.  A  new approach for solving the type of linear and nonlinear Fredholm integral equation of the second kind is proposed. Although many methods provide an analytic solution,  there are different types of integral equations are difficult to solve. Therefore, the numerical approach for solving integral equations is used. Fredholm integral equations of the second kind have been converted to unconstrained optimization problems to find their approximate solutions. This work employs particle swarm optimization combined with padé expansion to find an approximate solution of the Fredholm integral equation. This is applied by minimizing the fitness function value. The fitness function is calculated using the discrete least squares weighted function. The proposed algorithm is applied to solve linear and non-linear FIE. The results are compared to exact solutions. The stability of the proposed algorithm is also presented. The results are promising in terms of convergence , stability and accuracy of the approximate solution.

March 2023 ,Pages 91.0-108.0

Abstract: The six upper front teeth determine the appearance of Aesthetic dentistry. The study will define lateral incisors based on their lower angles as round, square, or square/round. LORIN molds to shape teeth were utilized. It extracted 144 teeth images from him and used 36 photographs of denture lateral incisors. The aim of the proposed work is to develop a model capable of determining the most likely form the teeth will take. Intelligent systems first distinguish denture picture edges and separate gums from teeth. After early processing teeth were extracted. and use morphological methods performed to remove the hump, and The Savitzky-Golay filter then softens the corners. Images were tested to determine their type. Fuzzy logic determines the filter's mask size by finding the most matching teeth. we were cropped 50%, 66%, and 75% of the teeth and compared the rest lower parts of the teeth. Then, each type of tooth is matched using Pearson's correlation coefficient and LORIN-certified dental molds. When evaluating pictures of lateral incisor teeth, researchers found 36.1% accuracy when using the entire tooth, and 66.1% accuracy when cropping 75% of the tooth. The best match and discrimination of the lateral incisor were at cropping 50% and 66%, his accuracy was 86.1%. This study's results were compared to previous research on this subject, demonstrating their reliability and precision.
