Editorial: Effects of New Normal Life on Electricity Consumption in Covid-19 Process

Mehmet BULUT
The measures taken during the Covid-19 process, which started in the world with the new year, brought with it a new lifestyle. In this new lifestyle, it has increased the importance of digital communication and the electrical energy that it provides. Community life is evolving towards the new normal where social distance is maintained and interpersonal contact is reduced to a minimum. With this new process, it shows that digital publishing will be more effective in the future. Due to the Covid-...

Predictive Models for Photovoltaic Electricity Production in HotWeather Conditions

Jabar H. Yousif , Hussein A. Kazem, John Boland
The process of finding a correct forecast equation for photovoltaic electricity production from renewable sources is an important matter, since knowing the factors affecting the increase in the proportion of renewable energy production and reducing the cost of the product has economic and scientific benefits. This paper proposes a mathematical model for forecasting energy production in photovoltaic (PV) panels based on a self-organizing feature map (SOFM) model. The proposed model is compared wi...

About the Light Dimensions

Florian Ion T. Petrescu and John Kaiser Calautit
Light is one of the most fascinating something of all the time. This paper aims to develop a tool with which one can determine with great accuracy the dimensions of light. Basically was entered a new relationship through which one may determine the size of a photon depending on the wavelength of light. Instead wavelength of light can be used as variable the speed of light and its frequency. One could determine this new expressions using and the known equations: the total energy of a moving parti...

About Nano Fusion and Dynamic Fusion

Florian Ion T. Petrescu and John Kaiser Calautit
Hot fusion is currently a difficult goal to accomplish due to the high temperatures required, which are difficult to achieve and also to be maintained. For these reason, it is much easier to try to achieve cold fusion, or a combined method. In this paper, the author will briefly present some original relationships for setting up a theoretical model for cold fusion. It will be determined the radius of a moving elementary particle and will be calculated the potential energy of the two adjacent par...

Electron Dimensions

Relly Victoria Virgil Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Shuhui Li, MirMilad Mirsayar, Ronald Bucinell, Samuel P. Kozaitis, Taher M. Abu-Lebdeh, Antonio Apicella and Florian Ion Tiberiu Petrescu
In this study, the theoretical principles necessary to determine the exact magnitude of a moving electron, depending on the speed of movement, will be exposed. The equations are specifically discussed to determine the radius R of the moving electron, which refers to the electron movement velocity v and the resting mass m0. The mechanical moment of inertia of a sphere around one of its diameters is determined by the relationship between the total kinetic energy of a moving electron as the sum of ...

Testing by Non-Destructive Control

Relly Victoria Virgil Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Bilal Akash, Ronald Bucinell, Juan Corchado, Filippo Berto, MirMilad Mirsayar, Samuel P. Kozaitis, Taher M. Abu-Lebdeh, Antonio Apicella and Florian Ion Tiberiu Petrescu
This paper describes an application of industrial robots that gain ground mainly in the aerospace industry. It is a TTT manipulator whose task is to automatically position the end-effector, in this case a complex sensor system and a eddy-current probe in the position set by the software application for testing by non-destructive ultrasound control of tickets and bars of titanium, both round and square, or any other transparent ultrasound metal (obviously in a certain range of sizes). For surface...
