Asphalt concrete was used for the first time in Syria as a tightening material for dam Sourani. It was used in this dam as a surface facing on the front slope. Use of asphaltic concrete under climatic conditions prevailing in Syria, particularly high temperatures, is discussed in the paper. To achieve this goal, a number of bituminous concrete mixes, designed using the same constituent components in Sourani dam, were experimentally tested and analyzed. To determine the effect of the expected maximum temperatures for Sourani dam, a program depending on Energy balance was developed. Possible methods of reducing the effect of the high temperature in order to increase the stability of the asphalt surface facing are analyzed. In this context, the facing was plastered by a light-color, which led to a decrease in the temperature of the asphalt surface facing by about 20 degrees Celsius. The facing was also plastered by placing a concrete layer above it, which led to a decrease in the temperature of the asphalt surface facing by about 25 degrees Celsius.

Therefore in this paper we will present the stability analysis carried out on the Dwesat dam with vertical core, its high is 33m, the downstream slope of 1V:2.75H and the upstream slope of 1V:3.0H. Thickness of the vertical core was varied from 1V: 0.25H to 1V:2.0H, and also present the effect of the varied thickness on slope stability for both upstream and downstream under three design conditions i.e. during and end of construction, steady state seepage and rapid draw down by General Limit Equilibrium Method using GeoStudio software. It was observed from the analysis that by varying the thickness of vertical core of earth dam, thinner core up to 1V:1.30H gives more stability and further increase in thickness of core tends to sharp decline in factor of safety for both upstream and downstream slope under different design conditions.
The aim of the research was to identify the factors affecting the professional performance of the communicator in the Syrian news websites, the researcher relied on the descriptive approach, using the questionnaire as a study tool, and applied to a sample of 55 communicators in six Syrian news websites.
The scientific and practical value of this research appears in recognizing the characteristics of the clay soil, which is located in Alnabeck, and used in constructing ALwagar earth fill dam. We will study five samples chosen from the materials site Hofar ALmlagea and which will be used in constructing ALwagar earth fill dam through which some Geo-geometrical characteristics like (Liquid Limit, Plasticity Limit, plasticity index, Consistency Index, Liquidity Index, Clay activity, collapse degree) will be determined. Depending on the Results of this study, we used international classifications (Casagrande classification – Unified Soil Classification System) to study the soil of the studied area. We made use of the results of the experimental study to determine the position of soil according to the international classification, and we suggested some solutions to improve the characteristics of the soil which is used in constructing soil dams.
This research studies the competitiveness ability of Syrian exports and the major factors empowering this ability, the availability of these factors considers one of the most important elements to ensure maximum productivity and best use of resources , and thus reach higher rates of economic growth, taking into account the importance of analyzing the excellence elements which Syrian Exportation Sector owns in light of all restrictive factors facing competitiveness ability including production costs quality and government role, this research identified a group of remarks and conclusions indicating that although Syria owns market power elements but they are not invested in a sufficient way. Therefore, the Syrian market is weak with respect to the competitiveness ability, in addition to a clear weakness of the competitiveness of the Syrian exportations, in particular the industrial exportations. This results in the need to implement a group of recommendations or solutions in order to overcome this dilemma. The forefront of these recommendations is the need to support the Syrian exportation’s sectors that have the best competitiveness ability to compete in a clear and transparent framework of strategy for external trade.
This study aimed at investigating the effect of some environmental factors on the phenolic contents of the Rhus cotinus L. plant. Plant samples (leaves, flowers and bark) were collected from three aspects (south, west and north) at four altitudes ( 0-300, 300-600, 600- 900, ˃900m) in the countryside of Jableh in 2016. The fresh samples were extracted using 95% ethanol as an extraction solution, then the total contents of the phenolic compounds were determined spectrophotometrically using the Folin-Ciocalteu reagent, expressing the result by (mg gallic acid/1g fw) using a Spectrophotometer.
