пїЅBody of groundwaterпїЅ means a distinct volume of groundwater within an aquifer or aquifers. This paper has as main objective creating a three-dimensional lithological model using borehole data for ROIL16 пїЅ Plain Vlasia groundwater body. RockWorks 15 is a software package for geological data management and visualization and it was chosen for analysing sub-surface data. The initial characterisation requires the collection of detailed information and data, such as geological and hydrogeological characteristics,...

The design of personalized footwear insoles involves modelling the 3D shape of the insole based on the individual feet plantar surface shape and dimensions. The advantage of custom made insoles over the mass produced ones are represented by their enhanced functionality. Custom made insoles are recommended for subjects with various foot health disorders and for subjects who undertake intensive physical activities like athletes and soldiers. During human life time, under repetitive mechanical stress, feet suffers di...

The G.I.S. It is used to create, store, analyze and process information spatially distributed through a computerized process. GIS technology can be used in various scientific and practical. G.I.S technology is increasingly used in the field of cadastre. To use technology G.I.S. in cadastre we must have both graphical database and the type attribute must be focused on cadastre requirements. Items graphic database is collected by conventional measurements, measurements GPS, photogrammetric measurements, through digi...

An engineering survey to determine the existing height of constructions is a frequent requirement that the land surveyors are faced with. A height survey may be needed to verify building elevation while in construction, or according to the legislation, in order to apply for a building permit a detailed topographic plan must be conducted. Such a topographic plan must be prepared by licensed surveyor and include the measurements of nearby properties, adjacent with the land parcel on which the building authorization ...

Worldwide there is a need to develop new advanced materials based on silicone elastomers with high-performance properties, reinforced with nanoparticles. The curing process as a primary step has a major impact on the properties of the final product, including the determination of the optimal amount of reinforcing agent in the nanometer range and cross-linking agent (peroxides - specific to food, pharmaceutical, medical and consumer goods industries). The aim of the study is to obtain an antibacterial elastomer com...

The purpose of the study was to develop an electrochemical method for detection of lead at low level of contamination in water samples using a carbon glassy electrode modified with the functionalized azulene: (2E)-2-(azulen-1-ylmethylidene) hydrazine carbothioamide (L) as a complexing polymer film. The modified electrodes were prepared in L solutions (1mM) in acetonitrile (CH3CN) containing tetra n-butyl ammonium perchlorate (0.1 M TBAP) as supporting electrolyte. The analyses were performed on Autolab PGSTAT 12 P...

Safe water quality is strongly related with good human health and the presence of undesirable species may pose various disturbances. Accordingly, evaluation of drinking water quality is needed in order to secure if water is appropriate for human consumption. The aim of the research was to evaluate the quality of drinking water collected from M?neciu-Ungureni, Prahova County during 6 sampling campaigns from 7 wells. The evaluation was based on determination of some specific parameters, as follows: pH, electrical co...

The research presented in this article is concentrated on developing a series of instruments in order to include modular design in producing customized footwear for the elderly women. For those who live longer, it is important that they stay healthy, active and independent and, as a consequence, it reflects in the market growth of the industry producing goods for the elderly, the footwear industry as well. The loss of the ability to walk due to foot problem, not only produces physical limitations, but also has a s...

The electrical power industry of the Russian Federation based on the performance of thermal power stations (TPS) is the largest consumer of the Russian coals. Currently the long-term development program of the Russian coal industry for the period till 2030 is adopted. One of its purposes is increasing supply of the Russian coal for power industry in the domestic market. The researchers dealing with the issues of power industry emphasize the drawbacks of the coal industry having negative influence on optimization o...

The aim of this study was to investigate the process of accumulation of some toxic metals in Salvia Officinalis cultivated in-situ and also in controlled laboratory experiment. In situ experiment was located in a highly polluted area, situated in the proximity of abandoned gold mine and a waste dump. In the study were collected and analyzed four different samples of Salvia Officinalis, grown on polluted soil situated in different geographic directions around a waste dump. The analytical investigation indicated tha...

Simulation modeling methods allow researchers to create models of complex systems. And it still remains a scientific field. Our purpose is to implement simulation models in training, but as a destination also to business пїЅ to actually use autonomous applications as support systems decision-making in the tourism industry. This paper considers some opportunities of the system for simulation modelling GPSS World Personal Version for creation and applying simulation models in the training managers in the hotel busin...

One of the most popular systems of simulation - GPSS World provides users (1) software tools to interact with the system in the process of simulation research and (2) software tools, realizing immediately the implementation of the model (including: syntax analyzer interpreter model, clock modeling, management of the list of events and more.). Until a few years ago the programs in the first group only automated a part of research itself, namely the creation of a text model and conduct experiments with it. In the ab...

Our objectives were to investigate the bacteriological, biological and chemical status for sediment quality in a zone from Danube catchment according to Water Framework Directive. The area chosen for investigation is a large section of the Danube River on the section Bazias-Calarasi and its main tributaries located in the southern part of Romania (Jiu, Olt and Arges rivers) and the aquatic systems type пїЅdeltaпїЅ in the south-east of the Danube. All investigations performed where made in accordance with Directive...

The nature of the soilпїЅs foundation bears a major influence on the time behavior of a building. Geotechnical studies are chosen based on the appropriate constructive methods for the terrain situation. There are however, cases where, even if the constructive solutions are adopted accordingly with the conclusions of prior studies, due to an inadequate approach in the achieving process of these studies, there are deformations that occur in the structure of the constructions, that affect their exploitation process o...

Maize (Zea mays L.) is the most important cereal after wheat and rice grown widely throughout the world, playing a major role in human diet or as livestock fodder. Water and nitrogen are the most limiting factors for maize grain yield and it is important to evaluate the response of maize crop to irrigation associated to N fertilization in order to obtain high yields and to prevent nitrate pollution. In this context, it was designed an experiment with the main purpose to analyze the variability of yield potential a...

The objective of the study was to increase the solubility of amiodarone hydrochloride by complexation with hydroxypropyl-пїЅ-cyclodextrin. After complexation a cyclodextrin/amiodarone inclusion complex was formed. The use of media containing surfactants is a suitable solubilizing method and as a result, a non-ionic surfactant - Tween 80 and an anionic one - sodium lauryl sulfate have been used. The dissolution profile of amiodarone hydrochloride and that of the inclusion complex, regarding the release of the activ...
