The COVID-19 pandemic affected consumers’ behavior worldwide. This paper aims to analyze sustainable food during the pandemic. research was based on an online survey May–October 2020 among 859 Romanian consumers. Principal component analysis and cluster were employed group consumers their behavior. Furthermore, binary-logistic regression used identify socio-demographic profile of identified groups. Based analysis, grouped into three main groups: indifferent, pro-environment protection,...
This work presents the Transfer-Matrix Method as a mathematical approach for calculus of different structures that can be discretized into elements, using an iterative calculation future applications in vehicle industry. Plate is important construction, medicine, orthodontics and many other fields too. original new. The plate along its length unitary beams, which have width rectangular plate. beam also parts. As applications, they are studied long plates, embedded on two borders charged with...
This article presents the Transfer Matrix Method as a mathematical approach for calculus of different structures that can be discretized into elements using an iterative future applications in vehicle industry. Plate is important construction, medicine, orthodontics, and many other fields. work original due to apparatus used long rectangular plates embedded both borders required by uniformly distributed force on line parallel borders. The plate along its length unitary beams, which have...
Many concerns are arising now regarding the effects of pollution on inhabitants, especially in agglomerated areas. It is known that mobility a major factor generates threatening negatively affects health and comfort residents. The present study focuses this sensitive subject by observing impact reducing air quality. There various studies topic, but analysis addresses gap literature, covering very active area, terms development attractiveness for new inhabitants. research was carried...
The vehicle market at the European level (and also elsewhere) has registered a high dynamic for adoption of electric vehicles as future means transport. Government policies and decisions fully support this move, but there are still massive barriers to entry into EV due consumer attitudes perceptions. Consumer perceptions will be decisive in success models, given that consumers particularly interested vehicles’ technical performance. pressure from customers’ demands performance leaves its...
Environmental data achieved with the Air Quality Monitoring Station in Dej city, Romania, reveal a normal state of particulate matter (PM) emissions below standard limit April and May 2017.These airborne particles contain large amount mineral fractions such as: quartz, calcite, clays (e.g., kaolinite muscovite), lepidocrocite.Their size varies wide range: from 1 to 200 μm for floating (FP) 10 PM10 observed by optical microscopy SEM.The vivo testing shows ability penetrate into upper...
Soil moisture monitoring and control are essential aspects for precision agriculture. The paper presents the designing calibration of a low-cost soil system. system includes 28 capacitive sensors, connected to an Arduino based data acquisition system, allowing simultaneous multi-point measurements. process was conducted on six reference points within content range 0–25%. results indicate non-linear variation reveal significant deviation between sensors leading determination individual curves...
Study of construction and wearing process in the case piston-rings other significant components from internal combustion engines leads at any time to creative useful optimizing ideas, both designing manufacturing phases. Main objective present paper is realize an interdisciplinary research using advanced methods evaluation a common vehicle on streets which Ford Focus FYDD. Specific objectives are theoretical study idea for analysis method applied developed Technical University Cluj-Napoca...
This paper presents the evaluation of residual stresses and induced by external loads in a water drinker numerical experimental methods. The part, used animal husbandry, is made grey cast iron (EN GJL 200). Numerical simulations were based on finite element method, using ANSYS Workbench software to determine produced volume NovaFlow software, stresses. results obtained methods, validated Applied methods consist electrical resistive strain gauge technique state stress various loading...
