Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHardware and Software Components of an Oysters' Gape Measurement SystemAmin Ali, Kamal Ali, Aaugustine Ukpebor et al.In this work, the hardware and software used in developing a bivalve gape measurement system is explored. This system employs the Hall-effect phenomenon to accurately measure and report the gape of a bivalve. The system uses a Hall Effect sensor (Symmetry Electronics’ H2425) and a small magnet in which both are glued to the exterior of the shells of a … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 7 Sep 2019 · 8,762 accessesView PDFCite

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSomething about Robots TodayNicolae Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuToday, robots are increasingly present in the machine building industry, sometimes even in some sections to replace workers altogether, due to the high quality of their work, repetitive, without stopping or pausing, without any manufacturing and assembly scuffs. Additionally, robots do not get sick, do not require medical leave or rest, work faster and better than humans and also support … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 19 Jun 2018 · 13,425 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Analytical Method for Determining Forces within a TriadFlorian Ion Tiberiu Petrescu, Taher M. Abu-Lebdeh, Antonio ApicellaThe paper presents an original analytical method used in determining the forces within a triad structural group. If the triad is in the mechanical equivalent of the transistor in electronics, representing a very useful structural group, while the transistor is no longer a puzzlement from a long time period, the triad was not too studied analytically, generally being approached by … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 26 May 2018 · 7,868 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNASA Sees First in 2018 the Direct Proof of Ozone Hole RecoveryRelly Victoria Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuFor the first time, scientists have shown through direct observations of the ozone hole by a satellite instrument, built by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, that levels of ozone-destroying chlorine are declining, resulting in less ozone depletion. Measurements show that the decline in chlorine, resulting from an international ban on chlorine-containing human-produced chemicals called Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), has resulted … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 22 Jan 2018 · 10,688 accessesView PDFCite
