A MICROPHYSICAL THEORY FOR UNITARY EXPLANATION OF
TRANSFORMATIONS MECHANISM IN METALS (Marius ARGHIRESCU) / 5
Abstract: Starting from the Zener relation of variation with the temperature of the pearlitic steel lamellas’ thickness, applied to the formation hypothesis of virtual or real pearlitic and bainitic pre-lamellas of α austenite in the period of incubation and considering a mechanism of transformation with continue diffusion it is deduced an theoretically exponential relation for the thickness of the cementitic and pearlitic lamellas and is argumented the validity of Zener relation, also for the thickness of the fragmentation of the bainitic lamellas sub-sub-subunities.

 

INVESTIGATION OF MECHANICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF DEPOSITED
NANOSTRUCTURAL LAYERS (Rodica-Mariana ION, Nelu ION) / 13
Abstract. One of most intensive developed research areas in last 10 years is the so-calledsurface engineering”, which carry out research on properties of thin films and surfaces.   The films with thickness from 1 to several scores of the micron have exceptionally large application for protection of materials from corrosion, wearing out, thermal influences, light influences, electromagnetic influences,radiation influences and etc. Deposition of thin films affords an opportunity for achievement of materials with unique combination of physical and mechanical properties that have better properties and economical effectiveness. In this connection  investigation of nature, functions and properties of new thin films can be used for development of new technologies for future applications. In order to predict the behaviour of thin films it is important to know their material characteristics. Special investigation is necessary, because material characteristics of the deposited thin films are often quite different from those of the bulk material.

ENERGY DISPERSIVE X-RAY FLUORESCENCE (EDXRF) ANALYSIS OF STEELS
WITH IMPLICATIONS IN ARCHAEOMETALLURGY (Rodica-Mariana ION, Mihaela
Lucia ION, R.C. FIERASCU, N. ION) / 21
Abstract. Archaeometallurgy is, to some extent, applied engineering in a discipline of anthropology. It describes the properties and production of metal objects from archaeological or at  least historical contexts. The goal is to learn how ancient metalworkers may have treated their material for the production of weapons and tools as well as juwellery and coins. Energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence (EDXRF) technique has become a powerful technique for non-destructive multielement analysis of materials. A simple method for the analysis of different stainless steel samples is presented in this paper, which is based on radioisotope excited energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence (EDXRF) spectrometry and does not require any type-standards. Generally in stainless steel (SS) samples Ti(0.03–0.08), Si(0.03–1.1), C(0.03–0.06), P(0.005–0.035), S(0.005–0.012), W(0.02– 0.3%) etc are present as minor components while Cr(32–2.44), Ni(3.7–2.15), Fe(50.0–70.0), Cu(0.6–2.2) and Mo(1.5–4.0%) are present as major components. In the present paper, we present the results obtained with this method for stainless steel analysis which is simple, fast, non-destructive and does not require any type-standards. We have determined elements Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Nb, Mo etc .

 

OPTICAL PROPERTIES OF SINGLE-WALL CARBON NANOTUBES EMBEDDED IN
POLY(VINYL) ALCOHOL FILM (Rodica-Mariana ION, Irina DUMITRIU, Radu-Claudiu
FIERASCU) / 25
Abstract.  A free-standing film made of a single-wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT)–polyvinylalchol (PVA) composite material was fabricated by pretreatment of SWCNTs in water that promotes unbundling of aggregated SWNCTs. Characterizations using optical absorption spectroscopy, optical microscopy, and thermal analysis revealed that the film has an optical absorption at approximately 1.5 μm, suitable for the occurrence of saturable absorption (a promising nonlinear optical effect) in optical telecommunication wavelengths, and that SWCNTs in the film are dispersed uniformly with a low scattering loss. The experimental results suggest that the nanotubes bundles are well dispersed in the polymer matrix.

Otilia VÎRJOGHE, Mihail Florin STAN, Diana ENESCU, Marcel IONEL)
/ 41
Abstract. Gas Insulated Substations (GIS) have found a broad range of applications in power systems over the last three decades because of their high reliability, easy maintenance, small ground space requirements. For instance, the space requirement can be less than 10% of the space taken up by an equivalent conventional installation. SF6 is the main insulating medium in almost all gas insulated high voltage equipment, because is having all the desirable properties of a good insulating and arc-quenching medium [8]. This paper applies a two-dimensional (2D) electric field analysis program to calculate the electric field distribution in Gás Insulated Substations. Distribution electric field and electric field strength values is principal criterions concerning insulation size

AN INTEGRATED RELIABILITY TYPE OF ANALYSIS AND DIAGNOSTICS FOR
SOME INDUSTRIAL SYSTEMS (Paul Ciprian PATIC, Luminiţa DUŢĂ) / 85
Abstract. Critical power systems, such as data centers and communication switching facilities, have very high availability requirements. Even a momentary interruption of two seconds may cause a loss of two hours of data processing. Consequently, power quality has emerged as an issue of significant importance in the operation of these systems.  In this paper, we address some issues of power quality like: real-time detection and diagnosis of power quality problems, reliability and availability evaluation, and capacity margin analysis. The objective of real-time detection and diagnosis is to provide a seamless on-line monitoring and off-line maintenance process. Capacity margin analysis helps operators to plan for additional loads and to schedule repair/replacement activities.  

 

A METHOD OF DEDUCTION OF THE CALCULUS FORMULA OF THE ABSOLUTE
VELOCITY AND ABSOLUTE ACCELERATION IN CASE OF THE COMPOUND
MOTION OF A PARTICLE (Vladimir Dragos TATARU)
/ 89
Abstract.  In the paper is presented in a very detailed manner the proof of the calculus formula of the absolute velocity and absolute acceleration in case of the relative motion of  a particle. The method is based on matrix calculus. First one will express the particle coordinates relatively to the fixed reference frame using a matrix relation. Then this relation will be derived with respect to time and in this way we will obtain successively the formulas with the aid of which we may compute the absolute velocity and the absolute acceleration respectively.

 

DYNAMICS SURVEY OF PHYSICAL PENDULUM WITH TWO DEGREES OF
FREEDOM (Vladimir Dragos TATARU)
/ 93
Abstract. The paper presents a method of dynamics survey of the physical pendulum which from mechanical point of view is a system with two degrees of freedom. This method is based on matrix computation and it consists in writing the equations of motion for each solid rigid body which compound the system as if it were free. Then these equations of motion will be assembled taking into account the constraint forces. The method may be extended to any systems with three or more degrees of freedom as well. The physical pendulum with two degrees of freedom whose dynamics survey is shown in the paper serves only as a model of the application of the method.
