Magnetic springs have a lot of advantages in comparison with regular steel ones: they are more durable, they save almost all of their properties and serve well for dozens of years. That means that a replacement of mechanical springs and bearings with magnetic ones will lower the consumption sufficiently, due to the larger lifespan. Consequently, it acts very positively for...

A microfluidic pump (MFP) is designed in professional drawing program AutoCAD and produced by using 3D printer in this project. It is aimed to develop microfluidic pump which is cost-effective and has practical usage during the treatment processes of diseases such as cancer and diabetes. During the experiments we characterized our pump and examined that uniquely designed MFP has suitable...

The energy consumption of the world is increasing day by day. As a result Greenhouse gases and aerosols are emitted into the atmosphere by burning fossil fuels. The emission of these gases can be easily reduced by using renewable energy sources. This project researches the usability of an amorphous carbon material called Diamond-like carbon(DLC) in solar cells. One of the...

This paper proposes the comparison of two works of fiction, Homer’s Odyssey and the BBC’s Doctor Who, based on similarities in creation, structure, and content. A complex understanding of both works and their cultural significance is gained by methods of close readings and aspects of media archeology. The second oldest work of western fiction and the ongoing British science fiction...

We are used to bubbles rising in liquids, however, when a column of liquid is oscillated vertically, it is not always the case. Experiments have been conducted to determine the critical conditions under which such a behavior occurs. In a second part of this paper, it is shown, that the experimental results are in good agreement with an equation of...

The French military radar GRAVES emits electromagnetic waves consistently at a frequency of 143.05MHz. These waves propagate in the air and are reflected by electrically conductive objects. If the object is moving, the frequency of the reflected wave will change. This effect is known as the Doppler shift. The reflected waves were received by an antenna positioned on the roof...

This paper aims to highlight the general ignorance of transhumanism, as well as provide some key concepts to form an informed opinion about it. To this end, the fundamental aspects that concern it will be exposed and analysed and the repercussions that this philosophical approach may have in the fields closest to the human being, namely the social, ethical and...

Adolescents represent a considerable percentage of cannabis users, but the effect of smoking on their pulmonary function has not yet been investigated. Therefore, I decided to compare forced vital capacity (FVC) and forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) of cannabis smokers with combined cannabis and tobacco smokers and control group of non-smokers, all participants being 18-year-old males. In previous...
