Cinética de secagem de sementes de crambe Drying kinetics of crambe seeds by Rute Q. de Faria, Itamar R. Teixeira, Ivano A. Devilla, Diego P. R. Ascheri, Osvaldo Resende

“…To determine the adjustment of the studied models a non linear regression analyses was performed according to Quasi-Newton method. According to the data obtained it was concluded that: the diffusion approximation method was the model that best adjusted to the drying data obtained; increases in drying temperature promoted higher rate of moisture removal from the seeds; the diffusion coefficient showed values of 0.19 x 10-10 and 3.9 x 10-10 m2 s-1; the activation energy for liquid diffusion during drying of Crambe abyssinica Horts was about 4.97 kJ mol-1.…”

VR & AR TECHNOLOGIES: OPPORTUNITIES AND APPLICATION OBSTACLES by A. V. Ivanova

“…The results of the survey show the key obstacles for the mass distribution of AR and VR technologies: high implementation and operational costs of AR/VR solutions; lack of high-quality content and imperfect devices, implicit effectiveness of their use.Based on the empirical study, a rather extensive list of benefits from using virtual and augmented reality technologies has been drawn up: faster and cheaper learning, training and guiding processes, increase in their efficiency, the reduction of the costs of elements and supplies needed, training support personnel; reducing potential risks to life and health of employees and other people while special training (medical operations and invasive procedures, evacuation, security, rescue in various emergencies) and the related optimization of the compensations; reducing the number of errors and accelerating the processes of assembling, repairing and operating special equipment, searching for information, necessary details, product location in the warehouse; significant reduction of accidents rate, as well as the exploration costs, due to the early identification of malfunctions; accelerating the pace of the designing and prototyping objects, significantly reducing the cost and duration of physical modeling process; improving customer experience, product and trading platforms design, that leads to corresponding increase in volume of sales; improving (simplifying) of communication and increasing its effectiveness.…”
