AbstractThis paper presents an analysis of the levels of electromagnetic fields caused by cellular base stations or mobile phones, measured in some residential areas. A statistical processing of the data has also been done in order to estimate both the short-term and the long-term variability of the fields caused by cellular base stations in some apartments and on the terraces of the apartment buildings at tens or hundreds of meters distance from the antenna systems. In some places, comparative ...

Abstract A set of experimental data resulted from environmental monitoring and its informational content has to be revealed and checked for its statistical character. As a result in this paper the aim was to verify if the environmental monitoring data obtained for a specific air pollutant monitored during three years presents statistical properties. Based on the results obtained by applying statistical requirements such as fixed location, fixed variation, randomness and fixed distribution, a ...

The paper proposes a method and a technology that allows the generation of a very high intensity magnetic field, at a high pressure and within an extremely short period of time into a ferrous material, in order to study the behavior of such material from the magnetic and structural perspective. The method consists in producing the �compression� of an initial magnetic flux that is generated in a coil that has inside a ferrous material cylinder (the armature), subject to testing, done by a con...

AbstractThe electrostatic discharge (ESD) event is a severe source of interference that can produce damages in any electronic system. Afull-body of an ESD generator is modeled using the Cadence IC 5.3 package software in order to reproduce the referencedischarge current assured by the standard specifications. The factors that introduce electromagnetic radiations into the systemshave also been investigated. Several tests based on proper matches between the parameters of the antenna were computed ...

AbstractThe paper presents an extended implementation of an adaptive filter structure for electrocardiographic (ECG) signals denoisingwhich is implemented on Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) circuit. The proposed FPGA adaptive filter structure can beused to clean in real-time the ECG signals from power line interferences. In order to update the adaptive filter weights, the LeastMean Square (LMS) algorithm is used. The discrete forms of the filter structure and adaptive algorithm are presente...

AbstractA cloud point extraction (CPE) procedure for the simultaneous preconcentration of trace amounts of Cd(II), Pb(II), Cu(II), Co(II)and Ni(II) ions as a prior step to their determination by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS) has been developed. Thisdeveloped method is based on the formation of hydrophobic complexes of these metals with the chelating agent 1-(2-thiazolylazo)-2-naphthol (TAN), which then are entrapped “in situ” into micellar media of non ionic surfactantoctylphenoxyp...

AbstractThe optimizing transformation of our country’s energy structure relies on the improvement of production efficiencies of domesticEnergy Companies. The efficiency improvement, in turn, is theoretically based on a set of scientific evaluation approaches. DataEnvelopment Analysis, a nonparametric method to evaluate the relative effectiveness of decision-making units, has a strongdiscriminating power to exclude invalid factors. However, DEA is sensitive to the number of evaluated decision-mak...

AbstractMost studies exploring the contribution of the mycorrhizal symbiosis to plant metal tolerance focus on plant-metal uptake anddisregard metal effects on the symbiotic fungi. We examined the tolerance of the model arbuscular mycorrhizal fungusRhizophagus irregularisto Al and Pb in vitro cultures with transformed carrot (Daucus carota L.) roots that exclude theinterference of other microbiota. We studied the development of roots and external mycelium of R. irregularis in monoxenic andaxenic...

The discovery of entropy in thermodynamics has set fundamental premises for the study and analysis of the relationship between the entropy law and economic processes, as one of the main objectives of such endeavours was to separate the qualitative aspects from the realm of economics. The law we have chosen to focus on in the present paper states that, in the universe or in isolated structures, entropy increases constantly and irreversibly, thus causing a continuous and unidirectional degradat...

In this paper new techniques for the analysis and improvement of the transfer function of a low-pass filter made in planar electromagnetic technology are proposed. The low pass filter is a fundamental element of the filter used for conduction electromagnetic interferences suppression. For this purpose, in order to determine the filter’s transfer function, 3D electromagnetic CAE (Computer Aided Engineering) are coupled with simulation software programs which use equivalent electric circ...

In the current context of industrialization, chemical and radioactive pollution is a concern for environmental protection and interference with human health. Care for environmental protection also includes vegetation that grows spontaneously in potentially contaminated places, thus avoiding illness among the population if consumed. The study area is located at 4.5km SSE from downtown Bacău City, Romania and is the result of the manufacture of H3PO4 through the wet method. In this study, t...

Influence of soil pH on the mechanical characteristics of glass reinforced plastic (GRP) pipes type was often investigated in different situations encountered in the field. GRP degradation is directly proportional to the exposure to soil with non-neutral reaction. The theoretical and experimental results lead during time to design standards, which allow the application of GRP pipes in water and soil, so as minimum interferences with the materials used in the manufacture of pipes would appear.

The western forests and rangelands of Iran in Zagros Mountain are valuable ecosystems for protecting the water and soil resources and providing the habitat for endemic fauna and flora. These ecosystems have widely destroyed by human interferences in the recent years. The land cover mapping using an accurate method is the first step to prevent the further destruction of these ecosystems. The aim of this study was to generate a land cover map of Ilam (Western Iran) using Sentinel-2A data at 10 m s...
