No full textتهدف هذه الدراسة إلى معرفة واقع بيئة العمل في مستشفيات محافظة نابلس وعلاقتها بالرضا الوظيفي للممرضين والممرضات، والضغوطات المهنية عليهم، والسلامة المهنية لهم، ومدى تعرضهم للأمراض المهنية فيها. وتظهر نتائج هذه الدراسة أن حوالي 30 % من الممرضين والممرضات يرون أن الرضا الوظيفي سيء أو سيء جدا، وحوالي 50 % يرون أن الرضا الوظيفي ال مرض والسيئ، وبشكل عام يلاحظ أن هناك اتجاهات سلبية لرضا للممرضين والممرضات، وانعكس ذلك على الضغوط المهنية التي يواجهونها، إذ بلغت نسبة الذين يعانون من ضغوط مرتفعة أو مرتفعة جدا 8.28 .% وتبني من النتائج أن حوالي نصف المستطلعين من الممرضين والممرضات قد تعرضوا لحادث رشق الدم وسوائل الجسم، وأن 4.93 % منهم ً قد تلقوا طعوما ضد التهاب الكبد الفيروسي، وأن 5.78% من الممرضين والممرضات يطبقون الاحتياطات الخلاصة بالسلامة المهنية أحيانا أو دائما، وقد خرجت الدراسة بعدة توصيات لتحسن الوضع القائم. كلمات مفتاحية: الرضا الوظيفي، الضغوط المهنية، السلامة المهنية، التمريض، مستشفيا

Challenges to the formalization of Palestinian female-owned home-based businesses
No full textGrace Khoury, Wojdan Farraj and Suhail Sultan explore the fact that female-owned home-based businesses (HBBs) are often characterized by underperformance, as many prefer to remain in the informal sector. In their study it is argued that few women attempt to formalize their HBBs due to the challenges associated with the legitimization process, leaving the majority preferring to endure constrained performance rather than to pursue the otherwise cumbersome alternative. The chapter’s aim is to investigate the challenges faced by female-owned HBBs in Palestine when seeking formalization and to highlight the initiatives provided by the various institutions to encourage these women to persist in their endeavours, and, possibly, to formalize. The findings demonstrate that the most challenging factors are of an institutional nature, both formal (weak institutions, tax policies and support services) and informal (socio-cultural constraints). Moreover, few successful initiatives were introduced by various institutions to encourage these women to formalize their HBBs
An Efficient Approach for Fault Detection and Fault Tolerant Control of Wind Turbines
No full textThis paper presents an efficient technique for monitoring and control of wind turbines. Fault tolerant control (FTC) is designed using Parity-Space approach to diagnose the sensor faults in the wind turbine. Based on the fault detection system an FTC scheme is proposed to accommodate and reconfigurable the control signals. The main contribution of this study is to develop a monitoring and control system of wind turbine, which reduces the system components as well as to increase the reliability and safety of wind turbines. The sensors which considered in this study are pitch position, generator speed and rotor speed sensors. Real data of wind measurement and real parameters of wind turbine is used to illustrate the proposed scheme
From cluster structures to nuclear molecules: The role of nodal structure of the single-particle wave functions
No full textThe nodal structure of the density distributions of the single-particle states occupied in rod-shaped, hyperand
megadeformed structures of nonrotating and rotating N ∼ Z nuclei has been investigated in detail. The
single-particle states with theNilsson quantum numbers of the [NN0]1/2 (withN from 0 to 5) and [N,N − 1,1]
(with N from 1 to 3 and = 1/2, 3/2) types are considered. These states are building blocks of extremely
deformed shapes in the nuclei with mass numbers A 50. Because of (near) axial symmetry and large elongation
of such structures, the wave functions of the single-particle states occupied are dominated by a single basis state
in cylindrical basis. This basis state defines the nodal structure of the single-particle density distribution. The
nodal structure of the single-particle density distributions allows us to understand in a relatively simple way the
necessary conditions for α clusterization and the suppression of the α clusterization with the increase of mass
number. It also explains in a natural way the coexistence of ellipsoidal mean-field-type structures and nuclear
molecules at similar excitation energies and the features of particle-hole excitations connecting these two types
of the structures. Our analysis of the nodal structure of the single-particle density distributions does not support
the existence of quantum liquid phase for the deformations and nuclei under study
Industrial Solid Waste Management in a Developing Country Governorate and the Opportunities for the Application of Cleaner Production Principles.
No full textHebron is an industrial governorate south of Palestine where the lack of studies
ends up to inexistent evaluation of its environmental status. Understanding the
status of industrial solid waste management (SWM) largely contributes to the
determination of the opportunities and the appropriate roadmap for the application
of cleaner production principles.In this chapter, we report the results of an extended research-constructed
survey conducted in Hebron both at municipal level and industrial level. Primarily
the municipal level research was aimed at identifying the current SWM
practices. Then the industrial level research was aimed to collect data on both
the applied SWM practices in local industries and record the generated quantities
of ISW.
Towards the development, updating and implementation of a legislative
framework, which will support an integrated SWM in the local industrial area,
the stakeholders are highly encouraged to develop an incentive system for
industries to reduce and recycle the generated ISW. This need clearly emerges
from the current research results: Only 21 out of 91 factories treat SW before final
disposal; 83.33% of them recycle the waste in situ or in collaboration with local
recycling stakeholders; 51.65% of the investigated industries produce a mixture
of process and nonprocess ISW, the average rate of nonprocess ISW is 23.22 kg/
day; 8.4% of factories always separate process ISW from nonprocess ISW; 85.7%
of factories do not separate their ISW into specific components. Only 13.6% of
factories reuse and 16.5% recycle ISW; 77.3% of the recyclable materials are
used as secondary raw materials, and 22.7% of them use the separated ISW as
secondary raw materials in production, both implementing the fundamental 3Rs
principle
Information extraction from Arabic law documents
No full textInformation extraction from Arabic law documents
Mar 2017 – Present
Project description
It's Samah Abu Shamma graduation project. It extracts some useful information from Arabic legal documents for people how are interested in law field.
Project brief description :
It takes a raw (.txt) file legal file and it extracts from it the name of the judge/s, lawyer/s, parties ( plaintiffs and defendants ) and the case's verdict.
Machine Learning techniques and rule based approach are used to build the Extraction system.Information hidden in unstructured or semi-structured documents can be quite useful. To pull this information, an information extraction system is needed. Making extracted information available in structured format enables answering more complex queries of interest to law professionals. In this paper we address the issue of Arabic information extraction from law documents. We describe a system that extracts some important information of interest to potential users of these documents with minimal human intervention. The system employs a hybrid approach that utilizes machine learning and rule based approaches to extract the needed information from the texts
TICE pour l'apprentissage de l'écrit en classe de FLE
No full textDigital technologies play a vital role in all domains of our daily life, including teaching. Information and
communication technologies for education offer a range of facilities from which learners can benefit. This
is why their integration in teaching and especially in writing essays becomes a pedagogical challenge. This
study focuses on the analysis of the real impact of digital technologies on the quality of essays written by
learners of A1-A2 level at Birzeit University. It tries to study the impact of this integration on the acquisition
of skills among these students. Therefore, it aims to compare the performance of students in writing essays
before and after the integration of digital technologies
