In the current digital environment, many resources have emerged to support teaching and learning processes. In this context Smart Libraries for Open Educational Resources (OER) are an important solution to assist teachers in various subjects in structured content searching, resource sharing, reusing existing materials and creating new ones. In a...

Abstract— Perspiration is a physiological response in high-stress situations, that also plays a key role in thermoregulation and stress management. Understanding perspiration patterns is used for assessing physiological responses and optimizing human performance especially in professions such as emergency medical services and military operations,...

Industry 5.0 represents a new strategy for manufacturing firms in the 21 st century. Additionally, the new concepts of Industry 5.0 are developed based on Industry 4.0 and its obstacles in implementation. The existence of Digital Servitization is the result of the relationship between Industry 4.0 and Traditional Servitization. However, the relatio...

The work is focused on the e-mobility industry and proposes an innovative solution for handling roaming connections in the context of electric vehicles charging. We address the privacy and performance issues of the roaming hub approach for enabling roaming by designing a peer-to-peer platform for connecting e-mobility partners. We attempt to achiev...

In this paper, we present the first steps towards realizing a digital twin with integrated virtual laboratory possibilities, for a newly established Energy Analytics and Solution lab, using the Unity3D game development platform. The presented example is a case study that shows the possibilities of such development environment for creating a fully c...

Digital manufacturing (DM) processes such as additive manufacturing (AM) technology, allow a high degree of integrability and functionality of printed parts. In this work, we present a proof of the DM concept focused on the integration approach where a product is developed and embedded with sensors. We also take this example one step further and in...

In this research contribution we have introduced a management tool for tracking key performance indicators (KPIs) in production processes. This tool can be used by executives or persons responsible for process management of a Smart Factory in a strategic manner, for defining performance targets by using Smart Production dimensions. The presented ma...

E-learning is considered a leading application of digital technologies in educational systems. The aim of the paper is to explore the utilization and impact of digital technologies on an e-learning platform. For this purpose, research was conducted at the Moodle learning management system. Data from the e-learning platform were empirically evaluate...

Lead by the results of our previous work, in which we designed the sweat glands prototype according to AM (Advanced Manufacturing) requirements, in this study we aimed to integrate the previously manufactured channels into a stereolithography (SLA)-manufactured module, in order to avoid support structures inside the channels and the model cavities....

This paper presents our current efforts to develop a system able to simulate the human body sweating process in various conditions. We designed a human torso and a sweating gland simulator. The parts were designed for Additive Manufacturing (AM), which represents an efficient method to directly produce complex parts. The main purpose of this study...

The paper presents an initial study and basic research of the state of the art systems and solutions for the simulation of the thermoregulatory sweating conditions. The simulation of the thermoregulatory sweating conditions has been treated by many researchers, and has become over the years a major area of interest for many industries (e.g. textile...

Project management within the automotive production in specific departments is still done separately and does not interact with engineering process. Our work aims on providing flexible data insights on collaboration tasks within such environments. We apply semantic technologies RDF, OWL and SPARQL with a specific domain related ontology PROTARES (P...

There are three resources currently used to mass-produce electricity: coal, nuclear and hydro. Hydroelectricity is a viable resource for production today. Being renewable, delivering system services and producing the cheapest electricity possible, these are facts that recommend hydroelectricity today. Often power plants work together with storage p...

This paper describes a measurement system for industry applications where the weight has to be monitored in a flexible way. The measurement system can be used to build several kinds of weight cell applications in which the low power sensor is battery powered and able to communicate with a master unit through a wireless network. The system requireme...
