In this paper, we describe the innovations that this theory brings to physics, and in particular, the ideas expressed on new book by Doctor Barceló: New paradigm in physics. It is necessary to analyse the incorporation into mechanics not only of knowledge about bodies with inertial movement, but also that of non-inertial systems. It is necessary a new structure of knowledge that can incorporate both inertial and accelerated systems. On this paper we referred to the main innovations and novel ideas proposed by Doctor Barceló on his new book, in relation to the rotational dynamics.

Samples were made by machining and welding technologies. The flat test bars were tested by pulling on a test rig UPC 1200. Part of the samples was treated on the surface prior to coating by a tensile test, second base coat and with a final coat continuous multi plasma system. The selected test samples were determined from the tensile test of the material characteristics apparent from the tensile diagrams. The examined samples were fitted top and base coat. Another group was the KTL basis. The presented graphs show the dependence of the strength on elongation of a sample according to DIN EN ISO 6892-2. The samples were then examined under a stereo microscope SCHUT brand, type SSM-E in the laboratory to conduct coating on a steel sheet at the moment of total violation sectional samples. The base layer, in which the temperature ranges from 160˚C-180˚C, was applied by electrophoresis method.

This paper aims to deliver a commentary on developments in the field of rotational dynamics. Professor Barceló proposes that in today's physics, a change of mindset is necessary that allows us to accept the true behavior of mobile objects subject to non-coaxial speed variations. The proposed dynamic allows us understand certain effects of rotating bodies. The application of these dynamic hypotheses to other fields of physics and technology will possibly allow new and suggestive advances in research, especially to bodies and systems with rotation in astrophysics and astronau-tics, allowing new dynamic working hypotheses.

A lot of research was conducted in the 1960s and 1970s, but research on electrical discharge machining around the same time slowed electrochemical machining research. The main influence for the development of electrochemical machining came from the aerospace industry where very hard alloys were required to be machined without leaving a defective layer in order to produce a component which would behave reliably. Electrochemical machining was primarily used for the production of gas turbine blades or to machine materials into complex shapes that would be difficult to machine using conventional machining methods. Tool wear is high and the metal removal rate is slow when machining hard materials with conventional machining methods such as milling. This increases the cost of the machining process overall and this method creates a defective layer on the machined surface. Whereas with electrochemical machining there is virtually no tool wear even when machining hard materials and it does not leave a defective layer on the machined surface. This article reviews the application of electrochemical machining with regards to micro manufacturing and the present state of the art micro electro-chemical machining considering different machined materials, electrolytes and conditions used.

One of the most common positions for human bodies is the seated position. In this work, mathematical models of the seated human body are investigated and simulated in a Simulink/ MATLAB environment. In addition, segments of the human body are studied and models are developed and built by using Simulink/MATLAB. As part of this work, model analysis and state-space methods are used in order to check and validate the results obtained from the simulations. Two types of forces are used to test the whole seated human body under low frequency citation. The first is a sinusoidal wave signal based on literature, and the second is an impulse function. The effects of mechanical vibration on the head and lumbar are studied as these parts of the human body are usually the most effected areas. Kinematic states of the head segment and lumbar are considered. The characteristics of the vibration response on the two segments are also obtained. In addition to the mechanical vibrations study, this paper is a resource for the development and implementation of models in the Simulink/MATLAB environment.

These consequently, create machine vibration. The dynamic behaviour of machine can be predicted approximately if it is represented by a mathematical model. This paper shows result of cam cutting machine's dynamic, which used Lagrange's equation to solve. In this case, the machine vibration is surveyed only dimensions such as X and Y through using cutting condition with alloy cutting tool to mill a 10 mm thickness steel cam. The machine is modelled into the two degree of freedom vibrating system follow X and Y direction. Each of X and Y table equal to the compound: stiffness, damper and mass, which applied as constant coefficients in Lagrange's equation. On the other hand, analysing cam characteristic and milling process in detail provides the resultant cutting follow X and Y in order to become external force of previous equation. After giving data in sufficient that necessary for problem, Matlab Simulink displays the vibration of X, Y for two states tangent force factor K t =299.3 and K t =598.6. At the end, it gives a comparison between these states.

Fiber optic daylighting (FOD) systems are an evolving technology that may provide a solution for daylighting technology. These systems use fiber optics combined with solar light collectors to transmit daylight to spaces historically difficult to daylight, using sidelighting or toplighting strategies. This research aims to show the energy conservation capability and efficiency of FOD as compared to Artificial Lighting. Calculations will highlight efficiency and performance for the design concepts. These calculations are intended to show how much energy conservation can be achieved with better illumination from FOD as compared to lighting generated by solar power (PVC) system, for the same sun intensity captured by the sun collectors of the two systems and the same length of cable. Matlab / Simulink software was used in simulating the efficiency and performance for the design concepts.

The advantages of research in microgravity conditions are still somehow a private niche of big aerospace contractors and main space agencies. But the landscape is changing and an incipient effort is being pursued to open space frontiers to small and medium-sized companies, universities, under-developed countries and non-profits. We will revise the advantages of microgravity research and a tool to conduct it at low-cost, rapid response and flexibility through the use of nanosatellites opening thus space frontiers to a wider audience. These highly capable satellites can support a wide range of mission objectives, from pure research to technology demonstrators and space qualification tests. The small satellites market is valued 600 M USD to 1.000 M USD yearly with an estimated 2.200 to 2.700 needed launches in the 2015-2020 timeframe. We will also introduce a new launcher under development to serve specifically the nanosatellite incipient market to help solve the scarce launching opportunities served today by conventional launchers.

However, gasoline is volatile and it poses a health hazard. In this work, isopropanol is proposed and investigated as viable fuel for small gasoline engines. Isooctane is used as a benchmark for performance comparison. The field testing reveals that isopropanol offers similar running performance and ease of starting. The maximum output power of isopropanol is surprisingly found to occur at a more advanced ignition timing compared with isooctane. The significant outcome of this study is that isopropanol can readily be used as a replacement fuel for existing engines without the need for any modifications to the ignition module or the engine itself.

Terminal velocity is the highest velocity attainable by an object as it falls through a fluid (e.... more Terminal velocity is the highest velocity attainable by an object as it falls through a fluid (e.g. water or air) and there is no acceleration. Free-fall Free-fall is the downward movement of an object towards the ground under the force of gravity only. The equation for the drag on a skydiver at terminal velocity: Drag = 0.5 (Velocity 2 × Air Density × Surface Area × Drag Coefficient) Equation B Weight = Mass × Gravity Force = Mass × Acceleration Equation C Fluid Pressure = (Volume of Air × Air Density × Acceleration) / Area Equation D Upward Buoyancy Force = Net Air Pressure × Surface Area = (Volume of Air × Air Density × Acceleration) / Area) × Surface Area = Volume of Air × Air Density × Acceleration = Mass of Air × Gravity where the buoyancy force is measured every second. Abstract Estimates show that skydivers in free-fall displace a mass of air downwards equal to their own mass every second, in order to maintain a constant terminal velocity. This is also demonstrated at indoor skydiving centers where air blown upwards can suspend skydivers in mid-air. Like a boat floating in water, the skydiver is floating on air. Consequently, Archimedes principle of buoyancy can be used to explain the physics of terminal velocity in skydiving. Conventional physics explains that drag, the force needed to push air out of a skydiver's path, sets a limit to a skydiver's velocity. Which is correct but incomplete. It is more accurate to add that according to buoyancy, the skydiver's velocity will increase until a mass of air equal to his own mass is displaced each second. Drag on a skydiver is defined by the equation: Drag = 0.5 (Velocity 2 × Air Density × Surface Area × Drag Coefficient) This equation has severe limitations as It relies on a drag coefficient which must be already known in order to calculate terminal velocity. Worse, this drag coefficient cannot be directly measured and changes constantly. Why is this important? This demonstrates that buoyancy applies to objects that move and is measured over a one second time period. At present, buoyancy is only applied to stationary objects, such as boats or balloons. Also, buoyancy provides a simpler and more accurate method to estimate terminal velocity, without having to know the drag coefficient. This paper predicts that all objects falling at terminal velocity will displace a mass of fluid equal to their own mass each second to maintain buoyancy and a constant terminal velocity. An explanatory video: " Buoyancy explains terminal velocity in skydiving, " is available on youtube, on channel of 'N Landell'

To fly a plane needs to displace a mass of air down equal to its own mass, each second. Planes are effectively floating on a cushion of air that the wings create by pushing air downwards. This is a similar explanation to how boats float according to Archimedes principle of buoyancy, and how birds fly by pushing air downwards. Correspondingly, this theory predicts that for all planes to fly, they must displace a mass of air down equal to its own mass each second.

It is more accurate to add that according to buoyancy, the skydiver's velocity will increase until a mass of air equal to his own mass is displaced each second. Drag on a skydiver is defined by the equation: Drag = 0.5 (Velocity 2 × Air Density × Surface Area × Drag Coefficient) This equation has severe limitations as It relies on a drag coefficient which must be already known in order to calculate terminal velocity. Worse, this drag coefficient cannot be directly measured and changes constantly. Why is this important? This demonstrates that buoyancy applies to objects that move and is measured over a one second time period. At present, buoyancy is only applied to stationary objects, such as boats or balloons. Also, buoyancy provides a simpler and more accurate method to estimate terminal velocity, without having to know the drag coefficient. This paper predicts that all objects falling at terminal velocity will displace a mass of fluid equal to their own mass each second to maintain buoyancy and a constant terminal velocity.

To fly a plane needs to displace a mass of air down equal to its own mass, each second. Planes are effectively floating on a cushion of air that the wings create by pushing air downwards. This is a similar explanation to how boats float according to Archimedes principle of buoyancy, and how birds fly by pushing air downwards. Correspondingly, this theory predicts that for all planes to fly, they must displace a mass of air down equal to its own mass each second.
