Angle Position Influences Over External Magnetic Field of a Solenoid in Wireless Power Transfer
The general form of the Biot-Savart law is referring to a closed loop, but it can be integrated over a finite length solenoid to calculate the external magnetic field in a specific point, at a rated distance from the center. The law states that the point of measure must be on the longitudinal axis of the solenoid. In real cases the point of measure...

Diagnosing the Technical Condition of the Gas Pumping Unit Type GTK-25 on the Basis of Modern Information Technologies
Gas pumping units (GPU) GTK - 25i produced at Nuovo-Pignon company (Italy) have been in operation for more than 40 years and most of them have fulfilled the established service life or are close to it, and therefore their further operation can lead to emergency situations. Considering that on the Urengoy- Pomary-Uzhgorod gas pipeline today more tha...

Study of the Combustion Chamber of a Gas Pumping Unit from the Point of View of Monitoring Its Ecological and Technical State
The efficiency of operation of gas pumping units (HPA) is characterized both by their technological parameters and the technical state of HPA as a whole. If a number of methods and technical means for their implementation have been developed to control the technical condition of the main units of HPA (power bearing elements, blades, piping, etc.), ...

An Accurate Technique for Finding the Coefficient of Rolling Friction Using the Inclined Plane Method
Finding the coefficient of rolling friction (CRF) by the inclined plane method is similar to the manner used in establishing the coefficient of sliding friction. For the rolling case, the difficulty arises from the fact that the usual devices employed in angular measurements present errors greater than the effective angle. The paper surmounts...

A cautionary note on using a self-assessment measure of emotional competence on high school students
We explored the impact of socially desirable responding (SDR) when assessing the outcomes of the emotional literacy training for high school students using a self-report measure of emotional competence (EC). The training was conducted on a total sample of 737 high school students from the Republic of Srpska. As a part of the training effects evalua...

Experimental research based on statistics, aimed to improve the quality of the parts obtained through machining, at some consumer goods
The paper aims to carry out experimental research meant to increase the quality of some mass produced furniture items. In order for that to happen, a great number of size measurements have been done on beech and birch wood parts obtained through milling and drilling with numerically controlled machines. The experiment lasted for a week, with work b...

Automated flood water control system
The lower level of the flood water control system will allow to normalize the analogue signals from the sensors (water level, amount of atmospheric precipitations and soil moisture) for further analysis and represented by four functions, namely: FC1 - the function of normalization of analog signals FC2 - the function of comparison of current values...

Mobing Phases
According to Leyman, mobing has 5 development phases: 1) Conflict - As a potential basis of mobbing, there is an unresolved conflict among associates, which ultimately results in a disorder in interpersonal relations. 2) Aggressive Behavior - Pushed aggression escalates into a psychotherapist. 3) Involvement of management - In this phase of mobb...
