Año 11 N° 29, 2020 Sayed Abdalreza Mostafavi/// Detection of raveling layers of water … 217-238 Detection of raveling layers of water well by electrical resistivity method and evaluation of the causes of sand making of deep well and it’s confronting approach Sayed Abdalreza Mostafavi * ABSTRACT The collapse and destruction of the wall of drilled wells is one of the challenges of drilling water wells, leading to a shortening and reduction of well irrigation over time. This research has been carried out in an area where most of the drilled wells have faced the problem of sand generation in various dimensions. Many drill holes in Bardaskan City, Khorasan Province, their layers at depths of more than 90 meters, face the challenge of drilling, due to the presence of loam and silty sand, which first requires the drilling of wells at low distances and, secondly, the average life of the wells in these areas is generally less than 8 years and in most cases between 6 and 8 years of age. Furthermore, the problem of cutting or collapsing the tube, especially in the highest part of the first network, is also indirectly correlated with the generation of sand in the wells.

    FACTA UNIVERSITATIS Series: Electronics and Energetics Vol. 34, No 3, September 2021, pp. 401-413 https://doi.org/10.2298/FUEE2103401K Original scientific paper EVALUATION OF ELECTRONIC READINESS LEVEL (A CASE OF FINANCIAL INSTITUTION) Hossein KardanMoghaddam, Nafiseh Sarboland Department of Computer Engineering, Birjand University of Technology, Birjand, Iran Abstract. Electronic readiness is the ability to accept, use and apply information and communication technology in an organization. To effectively implement information and communication technologies, the first step is to measure the electronic readiness of companies and organizations to adopt these new technologies. In this research, the level of electronic readiness of Mellat Bank has been studied in Khorasan Razavi province in Iran, from the perspective of the employees in cities of Feyz Abad, Kashmar, Bajestan, Gonabad and Bazar and Central branches in Khorasan Razavi province. Electronic readiness levels of Bank Mellat have been evaluated in the following dimensions: Strategy readiness and IT policies, IT infrastructure readiness, management readiness, legal-juridical readiness, culture and human resource (personnel) readiness and Process readiness. This research is based on descriptive research design and applied purpose. The statistical population of the personnel includes people with sufficient and necessary information in the field of financial and banking activities regarding e-commerce issues and e-readiness, which was a total population of 74 people. 50 questionnaires consisting of 30 questions were distributed using non-probability convenience sampling method of which 42 questionnaires were accurate. The SPSS15 software was used for analysis. The results of the analysis showed that the level of electronic readiness of Mellat Bank in Khorasan Razavi province in the studied branches is significantly higher than the average theoretical score (3) (p <0.001) in total and its components.
