by :Dr.Bakhtyar Ahmed mala7/5/2026Laser scanning is an advanced surveying technique widely used for 3D modeling, monitoring, as-built surveys, and accurate data collection. In this study, the inclination and deviation of the heritage Choli Minaret were investigated using a total station and a BLK360 laser scanner. The aim was to obtain reliable geometric data and create […]

Mental Spaces TheoryPresented by:Dr. Sanaa Yousif Ahmed Mental Spaces Theory (MST), developed by Gilles Fauconnier, is a cognitive framework explaining how humans construct meaning and process language by building small, interconnected mental “spaces” rather than one massive, absolute model of reality. These spaces are temporary, partial cognitive structures representing beliefs, hypothetical worlds, and contexts that

Conjunctions in EnglishPresented by:Dr. Sanaa Yousif Ahmed A conjunction is a word that links other words, phrases, or clauses together. There are three main types of conjunctions: coordinating, correlative, and subordinating. Coordinating conjunctions allow you to join words, phrases, and clauses of equal grammatical rank in a sentence. The most common coordinating conjunctions are for, and, nor, but,

seminar by Dr.Rozhgar QaraniTitle: Building Extraction in Occluded Areas Using Hybrid Deep LearningDescription:-Focuses on building extraction from satellite images in occluded areas-Addresses challenges like trees, shadows, and overlapping objects-Uses a hybrid deep learning approach:-U-Net / FCN → detect building regions-Mask R-CNN → refine and separate buildings-Applies a sequential process for improved results-Achieves better accuracy and

Abstract:The Spatial and Temporal Adaptive Reflectance Fusion Model (STARFM) is a prominent algorithm used in remote sensing to blend images from different satellites—most commonly Landsat (high spatial resolution, low temporal frequency) and MODIS (low spatial resolution, high temporal frequency). This process creates “synthetic” daily images that possess the high spatial detail of Landsat. The model

M.Ahmed TalabaniThe presentation was about the multipath and N-LOS effects on GNSS positioning. The multipath error happens because of receiving direct and reflected signals from the satellite at the same time. The N-LOS error happens when the direct signal is blocked and the reflected signal only reaches the receiver. The causes and the solutions were

M.Ahmed talabaniThe presentation was about the jamming and spoofing threats on GNSS positioning. The jamming will cause the blockage of the GNSS signal partially and fully. As a result, the receiver will stop working or work inappropriately. The spoofing will lead to location calculation error to be in a random or specific place planned before.

Dr.kamaran kakil27_4Seismic DesignComparison for Erbil CityThis seminar explains the differences between designing high–rise buildings in accordance with UBC97 and ASCE7-20 for seismic zone located in Erbil city. The specified zone for Erbil city was zone 2B according to UBC97, while assigning values Ss=0.6, S1=0.1 according to the Iraqi seismic map, and ASCE7-20 code. The comparisum
