Towards Net Zero Energy Buildings for Sustainability
Journal ArticleNet Zero Energy (NZE) buildings play a crucial role in meeting the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) and creating environmentally friendly residential areas. These buildings are designed to generate as much energy as they consume, resulting in a net balance of zero energy consumption from the grid. By integrating innovative technologies and sustainable design principles, NZE buildings minimize their carbon footprint and contribute to a more sustainable future. The acquired result has been presented and discussed. The concept of Net Zero Energy Buildings (NZEBs) has gained significant attention in recent years as a crucial strategy for achieving sustainability in the built environment. NZEBs are designed to produce as much energy as they consume, resulting in a net energy balance of zero over a specified period.

Integrated Production Modelling (MBAL Software) to define the Water Influx Model and Properties of an Aquifer for Libyan Undersaturated Oil Reservoir
Conference paperReservoir performance prediction is important aspect of the oil & gas field development planning and reserves estimation which depicts the behavior of the reservoir in the future. This project is conducted in order to integrated production modelling with MBAL software to define the water influx model and its properties of an aquifer for Libyan oil reservoir. The objectives of this project are to determination the PVT of oil, gas, and water. Determination drive mechanism, identification of suitable water influx model and unknown parameter calculations. Define water influx using influx model. Define properties of an aquifer. Material balance software is used as principal method in order to achieve the objectives of those objectives. Based on the Material balance software results, the main source of energy in reservoir was from Water influx, pore volume, and fluid expansion drive mechanism. At the begging, the fluid expansion is from 0 to 40 % and pore volume compressibility is from 40 % to 64 % and the water influx is from 64 % to 100%, after that we has water injection. The model for this reservoir is the Hurst-van Everding-Odeh with the system is radial aquifer. Finally, central objective of this paper with the help of reservoir simulation fulfilled to know the water influx model and its properties and to produce future prediction that will lead to optimize reservoir performance which meant reservoir developed in the manner that brings utmost benefit to the commercial business.

Design of Wireless Communication Network for the Idref Automated Control System II; Advancing Connectivity in the City of Rujban
Journal ArticleThe quest for reliable water access has been a critical endeavor throughout history, and Rujban
City is no exception. Faced with the challenges of aging infrastructure and reliance on external
water sources, Rujban is turning towards technological innovation for solutions. This paper
outlines the design of the communication component within the Idref Automated Control System
2 (IACS II), a significant advancement in the automation of Rujban's water distribution system.
This system innovatively connects the city's central distributed tank to three distributed tanks via
a robust wireless communication network, while maintaining a wired connection to the Idref
collection tank, the main control station, and associated monitoring rooms and pumps. The system
employs microcontroller-based automation to manage water levels, control signals, and monitor
pump activity and potential leaks, with data displayed on an LCD screen. This approach is poised
to dramatically improve the efficiency and reliability of water distribution in Rujban City, marking
a key step forward in addressing its water supply challenges.

Increasing Oil Recovery by Gas Injection for Libyan Carbonate Sedimentary Field (LCSF) by using Eclipse Software
Journal ArticleIn this study, two software MBAL - Petroleum Experts and Eclipse are used to do comprehensive reservoir study for LCSF plane of development, this study covered analyses and evaluation. Gas injection essentially increases the rate of oil field development and in many cases permits increased oil recovery. This paper demonstrates a successful simulation case study based on a field data of a project. The objective of this study is to improve recovery from Libyan Carbonate Sedimentary Field by three wells of gas injection. To do that, first, the simulation 3-D model was built by using advanced reservoir simulation software (Schlumberger Eclipse). Second, select the best zone for gas injection. Third, select the best location for injector well. Fourth, determine the injector well depth. The results of the paper can be seen to match the real data of the reservoir with the results of the program using a MBAL software. The simulator results show the reservoir pressure history curve is matching to the stimulation curve, this gives a good allusion of the input data that has been entered to the model. The driving mechanism of this reservoirs it comes from three natural forces, which are fluid expansion, PV compressibility, and water influx. Gas injection scenario has a good plateau bpd lasts approximately 3 years and after that started to decrease. The Cumulative oil production is 108442340 STB barrels of oil with the recovery factor approximately 0.52805 and final reservoir pressure is maintained 328.76 pisa

الأزمة الليبية في ضوء جهود البعثة الأممية : من طارق متري إلى عبدالله باتيلي، هل من مقاربة واقعية تجمع الفرقاء؟
مقال في مجلة علميةإثر ثورة 17 شباط/فبراير 2011، التي عصفت بنظام القذافي، دخلت البلاد في متاهة صراع مرير تعددت أدواته وأطرافه، مما ترتب عنه شرخ عميق أصاب المجتمع الليبي. وجدت ليبيا نفسها في فك التدخلات الخارجية الضارة، مما جعل من البلد ساحة صراع وتنافس لقوى دولية وإقليمية تخلق الأزمات وتساهم في زعزعة استقرار وأمن المنطقة برمتها.
برغم الجهود التي بذلتها الأمم المتحدة في ليبيا، لم تفلح في تجاوز المعضلات التي تمثل جوهر الأزمة القائمة، ولم تنجح إلا في تقديم تصورات وخرائط طريق لتقاسم السلطة. كما لم تفلح تلك الترتيبات إلا في زيادة عدد المكونات أو عناصر الأزمة السياسية. وهو ما أثار الشكوك حول كفاءة وفاعلية البعثة الأممية ومقاربتها للحل في ليبيا، وفي الوقت نفسه، ثار الجدل حول جدوى تلك الجهود، وما إذا كانت فعلاً تحمل في جعبتها أفكاراً بنّاءة تفضي إلى فك رموز الأزمة الليبية وحلحلة كل تعقيداتها، بما يحقق الاستقرار والأمن وعودة الدولة موحدة بمؤسساتها.

Enhancing Data Center Performance using Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN) EmergingTechnology
Journal ArticleAbstract As more and more people turn to the cloud for their personal and professional purposes, cloud computing has become essential for the majority of users. Given the increased demand for cloud virtualization, the datacenter needs to be able to accommodate more virtual machines (VMs) that are housed on its servers. A datacenter employing old technology may accommodate up to 4096 VLANs, which would restrict the number of tenants it could serve. Spanning-Tree Protocol (SPT) is used by VLANs to remove loops, or duplicates, which block half of the routes and waste available bandwidth. The Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN), an emerging technology, must be used from there. It permits network segmentation similar to that of regular VLANs without obstructing traffic or reducing scalability. This study outlined both established and novel approaches and then clarified how to use them for data center topology. It also covered the drawbacks of utilizing conventional technologies. The benefits of cutting-edge technology and its superior influence on datacenter bandwidth utilization. To demonstrate how the new technology enhances data center performance, these technologies were finally replicated using the Eve emulator.
