Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesCyclic Instability of Shape-Memory Alloys in Seismic Isolation SystemsFilipe Amarante dos Santos, Corneliu Cismasiu, Francisco Braz FernandesShape-memory alloys are being progressively introduced as kernel components in seismic retrofitting devices for civil engineering structures. In order to control the instability associated with the first mechanical cycles, a training procedure is usually implemented, which stabilizes the superelastic behavior of the alloy. This paper addresses the characterization of the cyclic behavior of an austenitic NiTi alloy with emphasis on … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 7 Jan 2018 · 6,856 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesTriton for Nuclear FusionRaffaella Aversa, Relly Victoria Petrescu, Antonio Apicella et al.In the nuclear fusion process that is permanently produced in the stars (suns) there is a thermonuclear reaction that uses as the main raw material the very first isotope of hydrogen, namely the Protium. This process is possible due to the huge temperatures and the unimaginably high pressures existing inside a star. At very high temperatures and pressures, matter begins … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2017 · 8,927 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesGeometry and Direct Kinematics to MP3R with 4×4 OperatorsRelly Victoria Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Bilal Akash et al.Anthropomorphic mechatronic systems are the most widely used robotics systems worldwide today in industry and in all automated environments. These systems are best suited to the modern automation and mechatronisation needs of the modern world, being mobile, dynamic, light, robust, complex, technologically simple, easy to design and manufactured, implemented, maintained and used in almost any industrial site, both in machine … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 1 Dec 2017 · 7,241 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesA First-Class Ticket to the Planet Mars, PleaseRelly Victoria Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Bilal Akash et al.The paper presents some aspects related to the current stage in the aerospace industry, referring to the current possibilities of moving in space. The main problem that has kept mankind for so many millennia has been the less speed of movement, but also the difficult exit into outer space. For a ship to be able to defeat gravitational forces and … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 1 Dec 2017 · 7,008 accessesView PDFCite
Letters to the EditorOpen accessIn the author namesSevere Sepsis Due to Raoultella PlanticolaChiara Casarsa, Filippo Mearelli, Gianni BioloRaultella planticola usually invaded immune compromised patients and has been considered a relatively harmless Gram-negative bacteria. We reported a case of a women with a new pancreatic cancer diagnosis that abruptly develop severe sepsis. A Raoultella planticola was yielded in blood cultures. This case suggest Raoultella as pathogen causing life threatening community acquired infection. …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 3 Aug 2017 · 7,701 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesA Review of the Fatigue Strength of Load Carrying Shear Welded JointsFilippo Berto, Abedin Gagani, Relly Victoria V. Petrescu, Florian Ion T. PetrescuIn the study it is shown an overview of the latest results of two types of joints of the load carrying welded shear. Tests of fatigue have been carried out on the two solutions specific design features proposed and with the aim of improving the resistance of the joints under cycling loading. By hiring the 3D models, was determined Strain … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 2 Jan 2017 · 7,738 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesPreliminary Experimental and Finite-Element Numerical Assessment of the Structural Performance of SMA-Reinforced GFRP SystemsFilipe Amarante dos Santos, Chiara BedonIn this study, the feasibility and potentiality of a novel design concept is explored by means of small scale experimental tests and Finite-Element numerical simulation. Taking advantage of the intrinsic potentiality of Shape-Memory Alloys wires able to work as adaptive actuators when subjected to joule heating, a 'smart-GFRP' concept consisting in Glass-Fiber-Reinforced-Polymer (GFRP) structural members with a SMA reinforcement is … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 27 Sep 2016 · 8,298 accessesView PDFCite
