In this paper we focused on the optimization of the washing processes because many technological processes are characterized by large consumption of water, electrical energy and auxiliary chemicals mainly. For this reason it is very important to deal with them. For the optimization of process of washing it is possible to set up an access of the indirect modeling that is based on make-up of math...

This paper deals with the optimization of reinforced concrete (RC) structures under earthquake loads by introducing a simple methodology. One of the most important problems in the design of RC structures is the existing of various design scenarios that all of them satisfy design constraints. Despite of the steel structures, a large number of design candidates due to a large number of design var...

superconducting materials are capable of trapping extremely high magnetic fields. this property and meissner effect of superconductors causes a levitation force between bulk superconductors and a permanent magnet (pm). this levitation force has possible industrial applications such as permanent magnet guideways (pmg). because of the high price of permanent magnets, the optimization of pmg desig...

Original scientific paper Renewable sources should be preferred by a modern society and this should be done not only in the areas of material engineering. Jatropha curcas L. is a plant with a high potential with many technologically utilized parts among which seeds most of all. The seeds of the plant serve for the pressing of oil. During this technological process worse utilizable commodities s...

Nowadays, Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) has become one of the most extensively used non-traditional material removal process. Its unique feature of using thermal energy to machine hard to machine electrically conductive materials is its distinctive advantage in the manufacturing of moulds, dies and aerospace components. Howevere, EDM is a costly process and hence proper selection of its ...

among the several non-conventional processes, electrical discharge machining (edm) is the most widely and successfully applied for the machining of conductive parts. in this technique, the tool has no mechanical contact with the work piece and also the hardness of work piece has no effect on the machining pace. hence, this technique could be employed to machine hard materials such as super allo...
