Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSmart-Factory: Optimization and Process Control of Composite Centrifuged PipesRaffaella Aversa, Relly Victoria V. Petrescu, Florian Ion T. Petrescu, Antonio ApicellaProcess optimization strategies and intelligent control algorithms for an industrial centrifugal pipe production are presented. The chemo-rheological and thermo-kinetic features of the polymerization of unsaturated polyester based composites are analyzed by means of a mathematical model that uses the heat transfer and generation properties of polymerizable systems. The evolution of the system temperature, viscosity and degree of cure profiles in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 11 · 29 Nov 2016 · 8,906 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBiomechanically Inspired Shape Memory Effect Machines Driven by Muscle like Acting NiTi AlloysRaffaella Aversa, Francesco Tamburrino, Relly Victoria V. Petrescu et al.The research shows a bioinspired approach to be adopted to design of systems based on Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs), a class of Smart Materials that has in common with muscles the capability to react to an impulse (thermal for SMAs) with a contraction. The biomechanically inspired machine that is discussed in the paper refers to the antagonistic muscles pairs, which … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 11 · 24 Nov 2016 · 9,109 accessesView PDF Cite
