Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeometric Optimization of Complex Heat Exchangers using Constructal TechniqueNahum Yustus GodiThe application of microchannel heat exchangers for cooling is documented in this study. Numerical optimization is carried out with the goal of minimising the peak wall temperature in the microchannel heat sink modelled with solid and half hollow square micro fins. A high-density heat flux q'' from a microelectronic device was applied at the bottom wall of the microchannel heat … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 8 Feb 2022 · 6,307 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMechatronic Systems to the Braking MechanismsRelly Victoria Virgil PetrescuWith the evolution of technology, the construction and geometry of the piston, together with the materials from which it is made, as well as the related manufacturing technologies, have been continuously improved. Thus, modern engines have become less polluting, working at higher temperatures and pressures. Body aerodynamics have been improved, leading to lower resistance forces from the air. Also, the … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 18 Aug 2020 · 6,954 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamic Kinematics of the Plan Balanced Chain at the Planar Module 3RRelly Victoria Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuAnthropomorphic robots are, as I have already said, in most of the most widespread and widely used works worldwide today, due to their ability to adapt quickly to forced work, working without breaks or breaks 24 h a day, without unpaid leave without asking for food, water, air, or salary. Anthropomorphic robots are supple, elegant, easy to configure and adapted … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 8 Mar 2018 · 6,940 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamic Elements at MP3RRelly Victoria Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Bilal Akash et al.Mechatronic robotic systems are today widely used worldwide to ease human work, but especially where work is dangerous, in toxic, radioactive, chemical, explosive atmospheres, without air such as underwater or in the cosmos, or in places hard to reach the man. Robots can take the tedious repetitive work under any circumstances and they can perform a difficult operation for a … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 23 Nov 2017 · 7,566 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractREVIEW OF GRAVITATIONAL WAVE DETECTIONS: DYNAMICAL SPACEReginald Thomas CahillThis is a review of the numerous successful gravitational wave detections and the implications for the nature of space and time. The prevailing space time paradigm in physics was founded on the putative "null" results of the Michelson-Morley (MM) 1887 interferometer experiment to detect light speed anisotropy and which resulted in two different new relativity theories: Lorentz relativity (Lorentz, 1904) … …Physics International, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 27 Mar 2014 · 8,007 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Typical Case Study: Solid Waste Management in Petroleum RefineriesJadea S. Alshammari, Fatma K. Gad, Ahmed A.M. Elgibaly, Abdul Rehman KhanThe current environmental concerns have forced developed and developing countries to reduce air, water and land pollution for sustainable growth. Solid refinery waste is cocktail of hydrocarbons, water, heavy metal and fine solids and is substantial in quantity. The principal processes of waste management focus mainly on waste source reduction, reusing, recycling, composting, incineration with or without energy recovery, fuel … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 9,767 accessesView PDFCite
