Authors: Zuniga-Tonio Jimmylen
Published: September 2021

The global crisis of the COVID-19 pandemic affected all areas of life significantly paving the way to the new normal set-up. In response, the higher education system in the Philippines opted to implement flexible learning as its delivery model. Flexible learning unlocked critical areas in redesigning the pre-pandemic learning and teaching paradigm, one of which is the deployment of learning management systems or online platforms to contribute to the effective implementation of flexible learning. The present study attempts to explore Google Classroom’s potentials and acceptability as a tool of support to flexible language learning and teaching. A survey questionnaire was given to a group of 44 university students who completed the Purposive Communication course. Using the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) analysis of data, the findings revealed that the majority of the students agreed that Google Classroom could provide accessibility, utility, and students’ satisfaction. Similarly, students agreed it could support communication and interaction and instruction delivery in flexible learning. Further, a qualitative-inductive approach using thematic analysis of the open-ended question in the survey questionnaire revealed that Google Classroom supports flexible language learning through the following: (a) easy monitoring of tasks, assignments, projects, and announcements; (b) excellent storage of learning materials (ex. backup files); (c) motivates students to manage time; and (d) motivates students to perform well. Therefore, it occurs that Google Classroom, as an educational interactive tool, has the potential to contribute to the effective delivery of flexible language teaching and learning, provided that responsive and timely faculty guidance is in place.

Published: September 2021

The aim of this paper is to explain the advantages of using sulfuric acid in Qarmat Ali water treatment plant belong to Basrah Oil Company, which produces water for injection into the Rumaila reservoirs. Sulfuric acid is a strong acid providing rapid and effective pH reduction. Maintaining the coagulation pH within the optimum value (6.4) by inject specific value of sulfuric acid to RAW water enhances the clarification performances by reducing the clarified water turbidity to minimum value (5.1). It was preferable for  operating at a pH below the saturation pH to prevent the precipitation of minerals such as calcium carbonate which are contributing to blocking the surface filters installed downstream (auto back wash filters) and The clarifiers that cause increased the feed from 500 MBD  to 1000 MBD. With a fast and rapid dissociation in Water, Sulfuric acid is an effective and practical way to lower the pH on Qarmat Ali plant which producing in excess of 1,000MBD of export water.

Published: September 2021

Many drilling problems are encountered continuously while drilling oil wells in the southern Iraqi oil fields. Many of these problems are ineffectively handled resulting in a longer non-productive time. This study aims to identify the formations such as Dammam, and Hartha formations،diagnose potential problems and provide the solution for lost circulation problem. After conducting a comprehensive study on the subject and based on available data, previous studies and some information, the managed pressure drilling (MPD) method was the best technique to solve this problem. This process may use various techniques including control of back pressures .Thus, reducing the risk and control the costs of drilled wells, which have narrow pressure window by managing the wellbore pressure profile.  The well plan software program provided by Halliburton Company was used, this software is based on a database and data structure common to many of Landmark’s drilling applications. Mud used with  various injection rates  to choose the rate that provides the conditions to achieve the best drilling process, as it using mud weights of (8.8 -8.7 ) ppg  and applied a surface back pressure (50 psi). Depending on specifications of second hole the optimal injection rate was chosen using the (hydraulics) program. As a results, rate of water injection (850) gpm, is the best  which it  provides a good efficient cutting transport ratio (CTR), which means high  stability and preventing formation damage in addition to controlling in  mud losses
Identification of Drilling Efficiency Using Log-Derived Cation Exchange Capacity in Shale Formation
Authors: Alshamy Ahmed Habeeb , Almahdawi Faleh H. M.
Published: September 2021

Shale and shaly formations constitute about 70% to 80% of the total rock formations drilled worldwide, and the most of footage drilled in gas and oil wells is in shale and shaly rocks. Drilling in shale sections in many cases causes wellbore instability and slow drilling problems. In this study, cation exchange capacity of shale is estimated using a relatively simple petrophysical model. The validation of this model is achieved with experimental values of cation exchange capacity. The estimation of cation exchange capacity by this model and common logs data has exhibited potentiality for distinguishing effective/ineffective drilling in shale formations. Drilling and petrophysical data gathered at controlled condition is required in order to optimize the proposed technique. Have knowledge of properties and location of shales permits for remedial actions in future offset well or while drilling in case of logging while drilling (LWD) is used
Enhancing the Rheological Properties of Water-Based Drilling Fluid by Utilizing of Environmentally-Friendly Materials
Authors: Assi Amel Habeeb , Haiawi Ahmed Abdallah
Published: September 2021

Recently, many materials have shown that they can be used as alternatives to chemicals materials in order to be used to improve the properties of drilling fluids. Some of these materials are banana peels and corn cobs which both are considered environmentally- friendly materials. The results of the X-ray diffraction examination have proved that the main components of these materials are cellulose and hemicellulose, which contribute greatly to the increasing of the effectiveness of these two materials. Due to their distinct composition, these two materials have improved the rheological properties (plastic viscosity and yield point) and reduced the filtration of the drilling fluids to a large extent. The addition rates used for each of the two materials (banana peels and corn cob) are 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5% and 6%. As regard to banana peels, the results have shown that there is a direct correlation between the addition ratios, the increase in the rheological properties (plastic viscosity and yield point), and the decrease in filtration The corn cob has shown the same results. Also, 0.01% increase in the pH value was observed when adding a corn cob, while adding banana peels showed the opposite, as adding them led to 0.02% decrease in the pH value. Among the other properties that have been studied is density, as it has been noticed that there is no significant effect of these two materials on the density of drilling fluid. Moreover, the performance of these two materials has been compared with the PAC polymer. This research suggests that the possibility of moving towards corn cob and dried banana peels as additives for biodegradable drilling fluid. Apart from being environmentally friendly, the choice of using them is considered economically more efficient than other chemical additives. By all accounts, the above materials are an increasingly rational choice for moving forward for an environmentally friendly oil industry.

Authors: Alkhayyat Raniah S. , Kadhim Fadhil S. , Yousif Yousif khalaf
Published: September 2021

Permeability is one of the most important property for reservoir characterization, and its prediction has been one of the fundamental challenges specially for a complex formation such as carbonate, due to this complexity, log analysis cannot be accurate enough if it’s not supported by core data, which is critically important for formation evaluation. In this paper, permeability is estimated by making both core and log analysis for five exploration wells of Yammama formation, Nasiriyah oil field. The available well logging recorders were interpreted using Interactive Petrophysics software (IP) which used to determine lithology, and the petrophysical properties. Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Measurements is used for laboratory tests, which provide an accurate, porosity and permeability measurements. The results show that the main lithology in the reservoir is limestone, in which average permeability of the potential reservoir units’ values tend to range from 0.064275 in zone YA to 20.74 in zone YB3, and averaged porosity values tend to range from 0.059 in zone YA to 0.155 in zoneYB3. Zone YB3 is found to be the best zone in the Yammama formation according to its good petrophysical properties. The correlation of core-log for permeability and porosity produce an acceptable R^2 equal to 0.618, 0.585 respectively

Resección endoscópica de hamartoma gigante de glándulas de Brunner. Reporte de un caso
Authors: Yonamine Karina , Curvale Cecilia , Matanó Raul , Hensel Alejandro , Yankowyez María Fernanda
Published: September 2021

Brunner's gland hamartoma or hyperplasia is a rare benign neoplasm of the small intestine, usually small, that is discovered incidentally on an upper digestive endoscopy or imaging tests. When it reaches a large size, it can cause digestive bleeding or intestinal obstruction. The pathogenesis is unknown. The endoscopic presentation can be nodular, polypoid or a diffuse glandular proliferation with thickening of the duodenal wall, and may be mistaken for a malignant neoplasm. Endoscopic resections of large Brunner's gland hamartomas in the duodenum is little reported in literature, due to its low incidence and diagnostic difficulty. The surgical approach is associated to greater morbidity compared to an endoscopic approach. The case of a 62-year-old patient is reported, who presented melena and symptomatic anemia, secondary to a giant polyp in the duodenal bulb. The polyp was successfully resected endoscopically without complications, which made it possible to avoid a more extensive surgical procedure. Histopathological examination of the whole specimen showed a Brunner's gland hamartoma. Conclusion: Brunner's gland hyperplasia or hamartoma is a benign neoplasm that rarely produces symptoms. Large lesions can become symptomatic and a high clinical-endoscopic suspicion and an evaluation of the extension are necessary before applying any therapeutic procedure, in order to avoid complex surgeries and favor a complete and safe endoscopic resection.
Pancreatitis autoinmune. Serie de casos y actualización bibliográfica
Authors: Pasqua Analia Verónica , Spina Juan Carlos , Mullen Eduardo
Published: September 2021

The concept and diagnostic criteria for autoimmune pancreatitis have evolved since the first case reports published in the 1960s. The advances in knowledge during the past two decades have resulted in the recognition of several pancreatic conditions that show, on histological evaluation, variable combinations of inflammation and fibrosis. In fact, autoimmune pancreatitis comprises two distinct diseases: type 1 and type 2. Type 2 autoimmune pancreatitis is a particular pancreatic disease about which there is limited data; it differs from the ‘classic’ IgG4-related type 1 autoimmune pancreatitis in terms of epidemiology, pathological characteristics and natural evolution. There are patients with complex pancreatic conditions where an autoimmune component and good response to steroids are demonstrated, but they do not meet the suggested criteria for the diagnosis of type 1 or type 2 autoimmune pancreatitis. Although the term steroid-responsive pancreatitis may be interpreted as a synonym to type 1 and 2 autoimmune pancreatitis, these are not the only pancreatic conditions that improve with this type of treatment. Here, we present three clinical cases and a literature review related to the diagnosis and treatment of autoimmune pancreatitis and other less frequent pancreatic disorders that present a good response to steroid therapy.

Published: September 2021

Endoscopic submucosal dissection is a complex technique that allows en bloc resection of large lesions. It is associated with long-term, technically complex procedures and a high risk of complications. The creation of a submucosal pocket is a variant of the conventional technique that reduces these difficulties, generating a high rate of complete resection with a shorter procedure time, a faster dissection speed and a lower rate of adverse events. Even though this variant was initially described in the stomach, its application has been generalized to other areas of the digestive tract. We present two cases where this variant technique was applied to treat large early lesions, with technical success.

Published: September 2021

Introduction and Objectives. Liver biopsy is the gold standard for assessing fibrosis and inflammation in liver transplant recipients. As this study has risks, the use of noninvasive tools has been proposed, including transient elastography, a method that needs further study in this population, which is the purpose of this research. Material and methods. Demographic and clinical data were collected retrospectively in patients who received a liver transplant, underwent liver biopsy and transient elastography less than 1 year apart. Sensitivity, specificity, diagnostic accuracy and Kappa concordance test between the two methods were determined. Results. Of 356 patients evaluated after transplantation, 45 underwent liver biopsy and transient elastography within 1 year; 60.0% were male and 75.6% had hepatitis C virus infection. At the time of transient elastography, laboratory values were: mean total bilirubin 1.5 mg/dL, alanine aminotransferase 108.1 U/L, aspartate aminotransferase, 101.6 U/L, alkaline phosphatase, 96.0 U/L and gamma-glutamyl transferase 9.0 U/L. The main indications for liver biopsy were assessment for rejection, hepatitis C virus infection or both. According to liver biopsy, 82.2% presented absent or minimal fibrosis and 75.6% had no inflammation. Acute cellular rejection was present in 20.0% of cases. A cut-off point of > 9.5 kPa was used to define advanced fibrosis, while a value < 7.5 kPa was set to indicate absent or mild fibrosis. Poor agreement was found between transient elastography and liver biopsy for these categories (Kappa 0.125, sensitivity 69.5%, specificity 66.7%) and for specific stages of fibrosis (Kappa 0.095). Conclusions. Accuracy, sensitivity and specificity were low for fibrosis staging when comparing transient elastography with liver biopsy. In liver transplant recipients, transient elastography would overestimate fibrosis, probably due to inflammation secondary to other causes.

Authors: Anysiadou Melpomeni
Published: September 2021

Greeks seem to be unfamiliar with online banking services, which was an obstacle to the smooth conduct of their transactions, especially during the Covid-19 period. The objective of the study is to reveal the dimensions that influence the use of Digital Banking, including users’ satisfaction and no users’ perceptions in Greece during Covid-19 period, using both econometrical and behavioral analysis approaches. Performing factor analysis, a Structural Equation Model and Multiple Logistic Regressions Models derived that both technological and personal factors, such as, personality and familiarity with banking products could impact the use and maintenance of the use of Digital-Banking in Greece. Besides, technical characteristics of services applications’ such as easiness in login and security influenced users’ satisfaction, while other traditional banking services such as ATM’s and automatic machines’ use, including the behavioral intention to change the way someone is conducting his/her banking transactions, could also be an obstacle in adoption. The particular study examines at the first time not only the perceptions of Greek consumers about electronic banking services, such as Digital-Banking, but also the factors, which will enhance the existing users’ satisfaction, in conjunction with the barriers that lead in non-adoption, including other banking services.
On Chinese-English Translation Strategies of Biopharmaceutical Corporate Profiles Guided by Adaptation Theory
Authors: Ling CHEN , Caiying WANG
Published: September 2021

With the closer economic ties between countries and the spread of epidemics such as COVID-19, Chinese pharmaceutical enterprises have a potential international market. The quality of the English translation of pharmaceutical company profiles is of great significance to the development of international market and human health. Compared with 8 Chinese and 8 English pharmaceutical company profiles, there are significant different focuses. Besides the basic information, Chinese pharmaceutical company profiles stress the history and awards of the companies, while English pharmaceutical company profiles are centered on the effective information. The existing C-E translation problems lie in word-for-word translation, lack of logic between sentences or text and redundancy. Guided by adaptation theory, the following conclusions are drawn: on syntax level, when translating, the translator should apply the methods of creative translation, clarify the logical relationship between clauses, adjust the word order of sentences and appropriately add logical conjunctions. On discourse level, the translator can use creative translation— recompose the information of the profiles. Besides, we should emphasize the company’s care for life and health. Only in this way can contextual relations and linguistic structure be adapted. I hope it will be helpful to the English translation of the profiles of Chinese pharmaceutical enterprises.

In this research, Cr2O3 ceramic nano-sized powder particles were prepared using ball milling and then were granulated to reach the proper size for spraying. Afterward, Cr2O3 nano-coatings were deposited by atmospheric plasma spraying (APS) process onto stainless steel substrates. To optimize APS parameters, spraying was carried out under six conditions with different parameters. Microstructures of the elemental/milled powder and coatings were characterized via a field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) equipped with energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). In this research, Cr2O3 coatings were deposited under different spraying conditions to understand the effect of APS parameters on the splat formation, deposition efficiency, and porosities of the coatings. After parameter optimization, spraying was performed under a high deposition efficiency of 46.0±1.3%. The optimized Cr2O3 coatings showed porosity content, Knoop microhardness, and adhesive strengths of 8.7±2.2%, 823±27 HK0.2, and 49±4 MPa, respectively; making them a good candidate for industrial use.

Özellikle geçici karantina uygulamaları, seyahat kısıtlamaları, sosyal mesafe kuralları, belli sektörlerdeki işletmelerin geçici olarak faaliyetlerine kısıtlama getirilmesi veya ara verilmesi gibi alınan sıkı tedbirler işgücü piyasasında olumsuz sonuçlara yol açmıştır. Çalışmada, tüm dünyada etkilerinin derinden hissedildiği ve sağlık kriziyle birlikte ekonomik krize dönüşen Covid-19 krizinin hem Türkiye genelinde hem de TR71 düzey 2 bölgesinde işgücü piyasasını nasıl etkilediği işsizlik, işgücüne katılım, istihdam oranları ve işsizlik ödeneğine ait şekiller ve grafikler yardımıyla açıklanmıştır. Bu çalışma, işgücü piyasasına ait değişkenler ışığında Covid-19 salgınının istihdam üzerindeki olumsuz etkilerini ortaya koymaktadır. Çalışmada kullanılan veriler incelendiğinde, özellikle işgücüne katılım ve istihdam oranlarındaki düşüşler açıkça görülmektedir. Ayrıca pandemi döneminde hem Türkiye genelinde hem de TR71 düzey 2 bölgesinde işsizlik ödeneğine başvuruların özellikle 2020 Nisan ayında yoğunlaştığı dikkat çekmektedir.

Bu çalışmada yoksulluk sorunu ile mücadelede kullanılan vergi düzenlemelerinin değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmaktadır. Günümüz toplumlarının önemli sorunlarından biri olarak gösterilen yoksulluk ekonomik boyutunun yanı sıra sosyal, siyasal ve psikolojik boyutları olan çok yönlü bir kavramdır. Farklı gelişmişlik düzeylerinde bulunan ülkelerde önemli sorunlar arasında yer alan yoksulluk, bazı ülkelerde refah devleti anlayışının yerleşmesi ile birlikte sosyal politikalar arasında yer edinmiştir. Sosyal refah devlet anlayışının benimsendiği devletlerde, özellikle ekonomi alanına doğrudan müdahale edilerek kamu harcamaları ve vergiler gibi politika araçları kullanılarak yoksulluk sorunu ile mücadele edildiği görülmektedir. Ekonomik ve siyasal istikrarın sağlanması, büyüme ve kalkınma hedeflerine ulaşılması ve gelir dağılımında adaletin sağlanması amaçları ile dolaylı-dolaysız vergiler, düz oranlı- artan oranlı- azalan oranlı vergi düzenlemeleri gibi farklı uygulamalar ile sübjektif ve objektif unsurlar dikkate alınarak maliye politikasının sosyal amacı doğrultusunda vergi sistemleri şekillendirilmektedir. Böylece belirlenen politika hedeflerine ulaşmak amacıyla vergilerin sosyal amaçları ile yoksulluk sorununun ortadan kaldırılması için önemli adımlar atılmaktadır.
