The designing of an earth dam is a long process of site investigations and safety calculations by the designer. Earth dams are becoming a more common type of dam in Kurdistan region of Iraq, our government has a master plan of over one hundred earth dam projects to be constructed, and this is due to the availability of raw materials needed for construction of the dam and the overall cost of the dam. 1-3: Nazanin Earth Dam Project. Nazanin dam referring to the valley name called Chami Nazanin which is located in the northern limb of Safin anticline. This dam is designed to be a concrete-faced rock filled earth dam. It is located about 70 km to the northeast of Erbil City, which in turn is situated some 25 km east of Shaqlawa Town. The dam is being constructed for the following purposes: 1. Storage and regulate of Nazanin valley floods. 2. Subsequent use for irrigation water supply. 3. Municipal water supply. 4. Regional ground water recovery or recharges. 5. Developing recreation in the region. 1-4: The Re-designing of Nazanin Dam: In Our project we want to study the Nazanin earth dam and re-design the dam the same way as it was designed by the company working for the government or completely create a new design for the dam according to scientific methodology and compare the results with the existing dam, and then verify the procedure of design by actual data which are available. 4 Design of Concrete Dam In Nazanin City /Erbil Research Leader Thamer Mohammed Researchers’ Names: Yahya Adnan , Yousra Majeed , Mhammed Zuhier Researcher Department: Civil Engineering Department Abstract: There are some reasons that prompted us to redesign the dam of Nazanin ,these are some of them: 1-Redesign the present dam in accordance with the scientific methodology and approved the design of the dam based upon the comparison with the new design.2-Redesign the dam for the purpose of the graduation project. 3-To take advantage of the data available in the dam project. 5 Design of multi storey building Research Leader Barham Hayder Researchers’ Names: Bawar Kamal , Luqman Yousif , Ahmed Fadhil, Shakaw Salah Researcher Department: Civil Engineering Department 56 First Annual Report Abstract: Retempering is typically done to restore concrete slump back to specified limits. The practice is know result in some loss of strength which is proportional to the amount of water added. When retempering of concre done only to restore slump as per ACI 116 definition, it causes a loss in compressive strength of 7 to 10 percent, can be much higher depending on the amount of retempering water added. The practice of retempering in Kurdist expected to be far worst as the addition of water at the jobsite is frequently done to increase slump beyond specification's limits. In this research the effect of retempering on the strength of ready-mixed concrete (RMC) in was investigated. The investigation covers 8 construction sites and represents 2 ready-mixed concrete (RMC) p operating in Erbil. The addition of water was found to correlate well with the increase in slump. Also, the reducti strength was found to be proportional to the increase in slump. In cases where controlled amount of water is add restore the slump within the specifications limits (100 ± 25 mm), the reduction of strength was below 10%. How when the amount of water added is not controlled, reduction of strength may be as high as 35%. Based on findings, it is strongly recommended that the practice of adding water to RMC at the job site to restore or inc slump should be prohibited. Super plasticizer can be used instead of water to adjust slump. This recommend should be adopted by the Municipality of Erbil and communicated to all RMC factories operating in Erbil to abid it. 6 Tendering process of a highway construction Research Leader Mariwan Hassan Researchers’ Names: Zhwan Kamal Abdulla, Zryan Naseh Abdulreza, Rako Abdullah Sura Musa Researcher Department: Civil Engineering Department Abstract: The project study the all components of highway design especially the surveying of all quantities and specifications of materials required for highway design. 7 The engineering characteristics of soil in Erbil city Research Leader Eman Lafta Researchers’ Names: Paywast Bayazeed Hasan, Asin Hussen Hassan, Mustafa Jamal Mahmud Researcher Department: Civil Engineering Department Abstract: The project study the geotechnical properties of Erbil city/north of Iraq based on several site First Annual Report 57 investigation reports collected from that area.

The teachers have stated that learners from different generations have declared that they do not feel attracted to English classes, therefore, they do not want to participate in the tasks in the classroom or study the materials they were introduced any longer due to the belief that they have reached a competent level. Simply, what they have been offered are not interesting for them. They have demanded more interesting activities than those they were instructed. This situation if needed action not taken results in less participation and finally causes interlingual development stop. 2 Research Title Researcher from Ishik University Researcher from the other university Orhan Tug Prof. Dr. Feyzi BAŞAR Fatih University, Turkey Four-Dimensional Generalized Difference Matrix and Some Double Sequence Spaces Researcher Department: Department of Mathematics Research Type: PhD Study Abstract: In this study, by using the method for single sequences, we define some new double sequence spaces B(Mu), B(Cp), B(Cbp),B(Cr), B(Lp) and B(Cf ) as the four-dimensional generalized difference matrix domain of the spaces Mu, Cp, Cbp, Cr, Lp and Cf ,respectively. We studied that B(Mu), B(Cbp) and B(Cr) double sequence spaces are complete normed spaces under some certain conditions. We proved some inclusion relation First Annual Report 65 with some topological properties. Moreover, we determine the alpha-dual of the spaces B(Mu) and B(Cbp), Beta-duals of the spaces B(Mu),B(Cbp),B(Cr) and B(Lp) and gamma-dual of the spaces B(Mu), B(Cp), B(Cbp) and B(Lp). Finally, we calculate the conditions of the characterized matrix classes of four- dimensional matrix mappings which are defined on the spaces B(Mu), B(Cp), B(Cbp),B(Cr), B(Lp) and B(Cf ) of double sequence spaces. 3 Research Title Researcher from Ishik University Technologies for the Development of Grammatical Abilities of the Future English Teachers Taner Ilgin Researcher from the other university Dr. Eugenia Barbara Ion Kreanga University, Moldova Researcher Department: Department of English language Research Type: PhD Study Teaching Abstract: The implementation of technology, in particular smartboard in English grammar teaching has changed the way grammar has been taught in lessons. Computer-assisted language teaching holds an important place in language classrooms. Similarly, smartboard allows to present the language elements in an enjoyable and motivating way. Unlike traditional instructions technology-based instructions are more effective in the teaching and learning process. Today there are more opportunities to integrate computer and smartboard into language teaching. Different skills can be taught with smartboard. When teachers use smartboard, true excitement is brought to lessons. Learners become more attentive and motivated therefore, they pay more attention and consequently the level of learning enhances. It is evident that technology-based instructions contribute to the teaching and learning process. Technological-based tools are used as supplementary resources in language teaching. Learners stand a better chance of learning the target language if technology is integrated into learning process. Learners need more enthusiasm and attention to achieve in language learning. Traditional methods cannot provide a good learning environment to learners. 66 First Annual Report 4 Research Title Researcher from Ishik University Researcher from the other university Cihan Baser Prof. Dr. Irma Mapdatzhe International Black Sea University, Georgia Teaching Gifted Children by Applying Enrichment and Acceleration Programs (Teaching Math And Science in Primary School in Iraq) Researcher Department: Department of English language Research Type: PhD Study Teaching Abstract: The purpose of this study was to start a beginning for gifted children by identifying and providing them two most used education programs acceleration and enrichment practices in math and science at primary level in Iraq.

First Annual Report 67 6 Research Title The effects of using an interactive white board on learning outcomes and learners motivation while teaching geometry: A case study of Ishik University in IRAQ Researcher from Ishik University Researcher from the other university Hamdi Serin Prof. Dr. Diana Mtchedlishvili International Black Sea University, Georgia Researcher Department: Department of Mathematics Research Type: PhD Study Abstract: Computer-assisted teaching holds an important place in the classrooms. In particular, Interactive Whiteboard allows teachers to present mathematics in an enjoyable and motivating way. Unlike traditional instructions technology-based instructions are more effective in teaching and learning process. Through the excitement Interactive Whiteboard brings to the classroom, learners become more attentive and motivated therefore, they pay more attention and consequently the level of learning enhances. Learners stand a better chance of learning Geometry if technology is integrated into learning process. Geometry has been challenging for some students, therefore learners need more enthusiasm and attention to achieve in it. Traditional methods cannot always provide a good learning environment to learners. The use of computer and Interactive Whiteboard can reinforce Geometry learning because they allow teachers to provide more examples and exercises in a short time, and apply different methods and practices, and consequently provide immediate feedback so that learners can have self-assessment. 68 First Annual Report 7 Research Title Researcher from Ishik University Researcher from the other university Aydin Col Prof. Dr. Mirsada Hukic International Burch University, Bosnia and Herzegovina Genotypic And Fenotypic Charestics Of Carbapenemase Producing Acinetobacter Baumanji In Bosnia And Herzegovina Researcher Department: Department of Biology Research Type: PhD Study Abstract: Acinetobacter baumannii is a nosocomial bacterial strain.

In light of the data collected in this study, together with the already known information concerning antibiotic resistance of A. baumannii strains, we intend to further elucidate the antibiotic therapy for CRAB strains resisto-types in BiH. First Annual Report 69 6B.2- RESEARCHES CONDUCTED BY RESEARCH CENTER FOR ENGINEERING STUDIES 8 Research Title Researcher from Ishik University Researcher from the other university Behcet Celik Prof. Dr. Ekatarina Pipia International Black Sea University, Georgia Comparison of efficiency of the courses in General English and English for Specific Academic Purposes at IT department, Engineering Faculty (Ishik University, Iraqi case) Researcher Department: Department of Information Technology Research Type: PhD Study Abstract: This research reports on study of students, subject instructors, assistants, and lab assistants in engineering faculty at Ishik University in Iraq about their opinions and attitudes toward ESAP (English for Specific Academic Purpose) and ESAP related issues. Since ESAP is driven by the specific learning needs of the language learner, the first step for ESAP course design is distinguishing the specific needs of the Subject instructors and students, which will tell us the dynamics about our ESAP program. The study showed us that the effect of Advanced English to comprehend subject field courses would be limited in Engineering Faculty. On the contrary, students should be provided with ESAP courses that will result in better comprehension of their subject field courses. 70 First Annual Report 9 Research Title Researcher from Ishik University Researcher from the other university Semih Aydin Prof. Dr. Mehmet Selve Gazi University, Turkey Investigating technological pedagogical content knowledge of science teachers having different teaching experiences about magnetic effect of electricity Researcher Department: Department of Physics Research Type: PhD Study Abstract: The aim of this study is to investigate the technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPCK) of science teachers having different teaching experiences about magnetic effect of electricity. This research was carried out with the participation of 4 science teachers having different teaching years of experience within the academic year 2010-2011. The participants were selected according their interest and willingness to volunteer. 2 of the participants were male and 2 of them were female. Two of the participants have bachelor‟s degree in biology and have more than 16 years of teaching experience. The other two have bachelor‟s degree in science teachıng and have about 6 - 7 years of teaching experience. Multiple case study method was used in this investigation. To analyse the technological pedagogical content knowledge of the teachers, various assessment tools used such as: face to face interview, video observation, field diary of observations, gathering and study of documents, questioners. Research findings indicated that the teaching experience had positive effect on pedagogical knowledge (PK) of the teachers. Especially the more experienced teachers used various “teaching strategies”, which is a subcategory of TPACK, more than the less experienced teachers. However it was not possible to say the same thing for the technological knowledge (TK) of the more experienced teachers. The teachers with less experience had better technological integration in their lessons than the more experienced ones. During the research it was observed that the less experienced teachers had better constructivist teaching orientations. It was found that all of the teachers had some misconceptions about about magnetic effect of electricity while teaching it by drawing figures. According to the findings the more experienced teachers had better “knowledge of students”, which is also a subcategory of TPCK. All of the teachers had used alternative assessment tools to evaluate students‟ subject knowledge, so it could be said that all teachers are good about assessing student knowledge. The less experienced teachers have good knowledge of curriculum about the subject magnetic effect of electricity, the more experienced teachers had more comprehensive knowledge of curriculum. First Annual Report 71 10 Research Title Researcher from Ishik University Researcher from the other university Applications of geographic information systems in construction Cemil Akdeniz management Assoc. Prof. Dr. Mahmud Bilgehan Zirve University, Turkey Researcher Department: Department of Civil Engineering Research Type: PhD Study Abstract: Construction management is one of the fields of Civil Engineering. It includes planning, analyzing, coordinating and controlling of sequential activities in construction site. The primary goals of construction management are to minimize the loss of time and construction costs by appropriate materials, adequate labor and resource selection. These objectives can be achieved by current and updated continuous information flow between participants and departments of construction organization. When information sharing doesn‟t happen effectively and timely it results delays and additional costs at the construction projects. Information technology has become prominent position in the development of technology. It supplies some opportunities to construction industry. One of the important parts of information technology is geographic information systems. It provides effective solutions to the locational based problems so they are used in many areas. The possibilities of using GIS in construction management and new models have been developed in various countries in the world in recent years. In this study, using GIS in construction management is investigated and a new method in construction management is tried to develop by use of GIS. Another aim is to supervise all data related with construction on a single platform. A new office block in Erbil is determined as a case study. Project drawings of the building are brought to threedimensional form in GIS and it is visualized according to the data in the schedule of construction. Database support and visualization feature of GIS is put forward in this paper. 72 First Annual Report 11 Research Title Researcher from Ishik University Researcher from the other university Reconstruction of the neural microcircuitry of rewardcontrolled learning in the rat Ali Kattan hippocampus Prof. Dr. Zalina Ismail, Ahmad Abusnaina , Mohammed Essa Universiti Sains Malaysia Researcher Department: Department of Information Research Type: PhD Study Technology Abstract: The BRAINetwork team consists of both national and international researchers from both the sciences and humanities, all of whom have the same interest in understanding the human mind.

First Annual Report 73 12 Research Title Researcher from Ishik University Identification of Diabetic Researcher from the other university Omed Hamah Amin Hama Retinopathy Stages Using Texture Parameters and Wavelet Neural Network Research Type: PhD Study Prof. Dr. Sukru Ozgan Sutcu Imam Universitesi, Turkey Researcher Department: Department of Physics Abstract: Diabetes Retinopathy is a progressive retinal disease that is associated with diabetic patients. It is caused by both types I diabetes and type II diabetes. Diabetes and its associated complication, including diabetic retinopathy (DR), have been identified as a significant growing global public health program [1]. Between 22% and 36% of people with diabetes have retinopathy, and of those one-third have vision-threatening retinopathy [2]. Those with retinopathy will lose vision, leading to potential blindness and loss of quality of life if not treated [3]. The screening of diabetic patients for the development of diabetic retinopathy can potentially reduce the risk of blindness in these patients by 50%. Laser treatment can now prevent blindness in majority of the cases. Hence, the early screening and identification of patients with diabetic retinopathy will help to prevent loss of vision. Therefore an automated detection and treatment of diabetic retinopathy in an early stage can prevent the blindness [4]. Diabetes Retinopathy in simple words is damage to the blood vessels in the retina. A retina is a light sensitive tissue at the back of the eye. A healthy retina is required for good vision. It is caused when blood vessels swell and leak fluid and abnormal blood vessels are formed on the surface of the retina. Diabetic Retinopathy is not easily noticed at first but overtime the condition gets worst and even cause vision loss. Diabetic Retinopathy is said to affect both eyes. In this Proposal, this disease must be classified into 3 stages. The three stages are normal, non-proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy (NPDR), and Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy (PDR) as shown below. Figure (1) (b-d) shows the optical image of three stages of NPDR. They are mild Diabetic Retinopathy, moderate Diabetic Retinopathy, and severe Diabetic Retinopathy [5, 6]. Figure 1. Fundus Images (a) normal, (b) Mild DR, (c) Moderate DR, (d) Severe DR and (e) Prolific DR In this thesis, these three stages of diabetic retinopathy would be identified and detected using the MATLAB software using 3 different algorithms which are Radon Transformation, Higher Order Spectra Analysis and 74 First Annual Report wavelet Neural Network (WNN). 13 Research Title The Effect Of Non-Native Interactions On Protein Dynamics And Folding Pathways: Protein Specific Model Approaches Researcher Department: Department of Physics Researcher from Ishik University Researcher from the other university Omed Hamah Amin Hama Prof. Dr. Hüseyin KAYA Gaziantep Universitesi, Turkey Research Type: MSc Study Abstract: In this dissertation, we have investigated the contributions of non-native attractive and repulsive interaction, both seperately and together, on protein dynamics and folding trajectories. For his aim, we have considered protein L and protein G both having type native structures. These proteins were modelled by using molecular dynamic simulation method with Langevin dynamics. Simplified coarse-grained chain representation where every amino acid represented with only atoms, and native-centric Go-modelling approach has been used. It has been found that the non-native interactions may change transition temperatures, free energy barrier height which clarifies folding/unfolding speed, protein stabilities depending on proteins‟ amino acid content, protein length, protein native structure and the distribution of native contacts in the native structures. On the other hand, the effect of the non-native interactions on folding/unfolding paths were examined seperately. Unfortunately, since our definition of transition state region was large enough, the contact frequencies measured in the conformations observed in that region contains much more fluctuation than we have expected. Therefore, no clear change or different signature of event ordering for folding and unfolding pathways under the inclusion of different non-native interactions was observed. It needs further and more detailed analysis. First Annual Report 75 PUBLICATIONS (2014-2015) 76 First Annual Report 7.
