Utilizing cash flow statement in in building a loan portfolioAn analytical study of a sample of Iraqi banks registered in the Iraq Stock Exchange between (2010 -2019) by Lovan Akram Saeed, Kawa Muhammad Faraj Qardaghi

“… The aim of the study is to identify the theoretical aspects  and via practical  side from which the preparation of the statement of cash flows stems from in order to enable banks to know the financial banking  position in the right time and analyze the financial risks that faced by banks in making investment decisions related to activities  (operational, investment and financing) to build a loan portfolio and maximize rate of return ,increase profits ,accordingly the following hypothesis will be tested through this research financial indicators from the cash flow statement can be used in building the loan portfolio in the Iraqi banks registered in the Iraq Stock Exchange, to achieve the goals the descriptive and analytical approach was used by analyzing the indicators from  (cash flow  statement , loan portfolio) through a financial analysis of a sample of private banks registered in the Iraq Stock Exchange between (2010-2019), The current study has reached a number of conclusions, the most important of which are:  The statement of cash flows is one of the most important financial statements because it provides accurate financial information due to its reliance on the cash basis, although forecasting the future is fraught with many credit risks, however most banks neglect the process of measuring returns and risks in building a loan portfolio and taking them into consideration when preparing the cash flow statement, among the most important recommendations of the research, banks should focus on using financial analysis methods according to the cash flows statement to forecast profits and reduce credit risks by investing in the bank loan portfolio. …”

Orthogonal Experimental Study on Layout Parameters of Ventilation Equipment in Tunnel Construction Based on TOPSIS Theory by Guofeng Wang, Fayi Deng, Kaifu Ren, Yongqiao Fang, Bo Wang, Heng Zhang

“…The results show that with the increase in the distance between the air duct and the tunnel face, the local CO concentration will first decrease and then increase, indicating that too large or too small a distance will weaken the effective CO emission ability of the tunnel face, and the distance between the air duct outlet and the tunnel face is the best scheme; by combining the TOPSIS theory, entropy weight method, and analytic hierarchy process, the optimization scheme is obtained. When the distance between the outlet of the air duct and the working face is 15 m, the side wall of the air duct is 4 m away from the air, the diameter of the air duct is 1.8 m, the flow field in the tunnel shows a high degree of stability, the wind speed is significantly increased, and the vortex area that may hinder the air flow is effectively eliminated. …”
