Integration of disabled people in an automated work process
Automation processes enter more and more into all areas of life and production. Especially people with disabilities can hardly keep step with this change. In sheltered workshops in Germany people with physical and mental disabilities get help with much dedication, to be integrated into the work processes. This work shows that cooperation between di...

Influence of the solid dielectric over the electric field from the ozone cell gap with double dielectric barrier
The distilled water has the advantage of high value dielectric constant (Ɛ = 81) in relation to ceramic glass materials, currently used for constructing the dielectric barrier. It was necessary to build a thin-walled enclosure of solid insulating material that contain distilled water to achieve a dielectric barrier. This was necessary to avoid expo...

Factors that increase the electric field of the dielectric barrier ozone generators
The dielectric barrier discharge cell (DBDC), also called ozone cell, is the main component of the ozone generators widely used. When the cell is powered with a high voltage value (> 5 kV) in the dielectric gas, arises a high intensity electric field that influences ozone generation processes by silent discharge also called dielectric barrier di...

Influence of typical faults over the dynamic behavior of pantograph- catenary contact force in electric rail transport
The quality of electric energy capture and also the equipment operational safety depend essentially of the technical state of the contact line (CL). The present method for determining the technical state of CL based on advance programming is no longer efficient, due to the faults which can occur into the not programmed areas. Therefore, they cannot...

Automated assembling of single fuel cell units for use in a fuel cell stack
The manufacturing of PEMFC stacks (POLYMER ELEKTROLYT MEMBRAN Fuel Cell) is nowadays still done by hand. Over hundreds of identical single components have to be placed accurate together for the construction of a fuel cell stack. Beside logistic problems, higher total costs and disadvantages in weight the high number of components produce a higher s...

Optical Gripper
With increasing automation, many work processes become more and more complex. Most technical products can no longer be developed and manufactured by a single department. They are often the product of different divisions and require cooperation from different specialist areas. For example, in the Western world, a simple coffee maker is no longer so ...

Arts and technology – Mosaic new techniques and procedures
The relationship between art and technique has been along the time one that is inseparable and systematic, artists appealing to various technologies, tools and practices that help them stimulate their imagination. Today there is a new category of artists, coming from a technical or scientific field, that are being 'trapped' in this „game of a...

Simulation of electrical and thermal fields in a multimode microwave oven using software written in C++
Due to multiple reflexions on walls, the electromagnetic field in a multimode microwave oven is difficult to estimate analytically. This paper presents a C++ program that calculates the electromagnetic field in a resonating cavity with an absorbing payload, uses the result to calculate heating in the payload taking its properties into account and t...

The impact of collaborations between universities and private organizations on cluster development and competitiveness in Romania
While the European Union has put a lot of emphasis on cluster development due to their inherent advantages such as lower transaction costs, technological transfer and regional development, little is known about how clusters emerge and what can facilitate their competitiveness. This paper aims to study the impact of public-private cooperation betwee...

Two fluxes multistage induction coilgun
This paper presents a brand new induction electromagnetic launcher, which uses two magnetic fluxes in order to accelerate a projectile. One magnetic flux induce a current in the armature and the second magnetic flux is creating a radial magnetic field. This aproach offer multiple advantages over single flux designs. First we are able to control the...
