Effect of arc speed travel and welding current on penetration of submerged arc welding process

In industries and research organizations most widely used welding methods are shield metal arc welding(SMAW), gas metal arc welding (GMAW), gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) and submerged arc welding(SAW). The SAW process is often preferred because it offers high production rate, high meltingefficiency, ease of automation and low operator skill requirement. This study will be

Technical and Engineering Study of Sediments in the Dips Dam Lake Reservoir in Kirkuk Governorate, Republic of Iraq

in kirkuk province Dibis Dam is vulnerable to losing its reservoir capacity due to accumulation of sediments. The estimated year for this occurrence was found through scientific equations due to Vegetation growth in sediment deposits further restricts water flow. Without dredging operations, the reservoir would have reached full sedimentation by 2025 instead of 2065 suggested
