This article presents the evolution of greenhouse gas emissions from different types of ships. Since the total decarbonization of the maritime sector is being pursued worldwide, it is important to analyse which are the ships with the highest greenhouse gas emissions and to present methods by which these values can be reduced. Thus, starting from th...

The current study seeks to explore the underexamined or potentially under-researched social dimensions of circular economy (CE) in the context of buildings. Utilising a meta-synthesis approach, this paper builds on the two primary theoretical frameworks in the well-being literature: the eudaimonic and hedonic perspectives. The analysis of the selec...
Single walled (6,0) gold substituted SiC nanotube systems were studied by first principles modeling. We observed the electronic structures of SiC nanomaterials are significantly modified by the introduction of gold, and SiC:Au nanotube exhibits magnetic response. While the configurations of single walled (6,0) gold substituted SiC NTs, the energy g...
In this work, we aimed to examine the first-principles study of correlation between chemical environment and ferromagnetism, and Curie temperature of CoxZn1-xSe and NixZn1-xSe diluted magnetic semiconductors for different concentrations of impurity atoms.

Some physical properties of M-doped (M = Ag, Au) single-walled (6,0) silicon-carbide nanotubes (SWSiCNTs) were studied by first-principles simulations based on density functional theory within local spin density approximation. The band structures, density of states, and the influence of defects on the magnetism are studied for the Ag- and Au-doped...
Ferromagnetism in single-walled (6,0) GaN(SiC):Ag nanotubes were studied based on ab initio simulations within a pseudopotential method. For the GaN:Ag single-walled nanosystems, the width of the band gap reduces with the increase of dopant concentration. While Ag-doped SiC nanotubes, the band gap of majority-spin states decrease and these systems...

In recent years, Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles have become increasingly prominent in the global business landscape. Yet, in Romania, the journey towards meaningful ESG implementation has hit stumbling blocks, with companies lagging notably behind their international counterparts in transparency and reporting.
We investigated the electronic and magnetic properties of pure and defected single-wall (6,0) chiral ZnO nanotubes. In a consecutive DFT-LSDA+U electronic structure simulation, influence on the nature and origin of ferromagnetism (FM) are studied for an Ag-doped single-walled ZnO nanotube system. The configurations with zinc host atoms replaced by...

Questions (150)
Hello ResearchGate community,
I hope this message finds you all well in 2025. I am Ionut Cristian Scurtu, with a strong background in Environmental Sciences, Engineering, Energy & Fuels, and Materials Science, currently based at the Mircea cel Batran Naval Academy and Constanta Maritime University.
With a portfolio of 27 publications indexed in Web of Science and an H-index of 4, my research primarily focuses on innovative solutions for sustainable development and technological advancements. I am eager to expand my network and collaborate with like-minded researchers who are committed to making a significant impact through scientific research.
I believe that through collaborative efforts, we can enhance our research profiles and contribute more effectively to our fields. Whether it's sharing resources, co-authoring articles, or developing new research proposals, there is tremendous potential in partnership.
I invite all interested researchers to connect with me here on ResearchGate or directly through my Web of Science profile (O-2089-2018). Let's discuss how we can work together to create research that not only advances our understanding but also provides practical solutions to global challenges.
Looking forward to your thoughts and hoping to collaborate soon!
Best regards, Ionut Cristian Scurtu

With loyalty and trust in my coauthors, I will keep growing my list of publications and expanding my network of collaborators. My coauthors gain great value by working with me as a strong partner in publishing.

In 2025, we will build on the foundation we’ve created and continue our journey forward.
Feel free to share this message with your trusted colleagues!
During winter, we face significant challenges such as cold walls and condensation, even with 10 cm insulation. To address these issues, what simulation techniques can be employed to optimize heat transfer in building systems? Additionally, I’d like to perform calculations using specialized software—what tools would you recommend for this purpose?
How can I determine the governing equations for these processes, and what bibliography would you recommend for identifying the most accessible simulation solutions to address how the additional transport terms for chemical species and heat generation influence the general form of the Navier-Stokes equations in turbulent combustion, as well as the numerical methods best suited to capture the interactions between reaction chemistry and fluid dynamics?
Does anyone have some sources and can share them for a scientific collaboration/ simulation in Ansys?
Where can I obtain temperature sensors (such as thermocouples and IR cameras), pressure sensors, and gas analyzers (for CO₂, O₂, CO, NOₓ, and H₂O)? These will be used in Bucharest, Romania, and we are prepared to cover the costs for transportation, consumables, and equipment rental as part of an energy study on propulsion systems.
We are studying combustion processes as well as evaporation and condensation processes, focusing on energy usage and related aspects. Is anyone working on a similar topic and open to discussing a potential scientific collaboration?
I need to know TRL 7 (Technology readiness level 7) details.
How to prove that results are TRL7? How to check TRL7 results?
Failed ESG Implementation in Romania - has any discussions in the researchgate?
Where to find a simulation for propellers in ANSYS CFX or Fluent?
See what I already done below:
I need a tutorial for a simulation for water entraped in ports with various depth and various currents at the port entry.
Where I can find a similar simulation?
ANSYS FLUENT - I need to generate variable wind speeds with rapid changes in velocity.
How to add winds in ANSYS to simulate a hurricane?
Or how to get a variable wind speed and direction input?
In my country (Romania) the Dimensions profile is not so relevant.
What about your country?
Can Matlab software modelate ship data like: propulsion force, ship resistance, hydrodynamic coefficients?
I need to software to easily verify and compute ship data. Any models for this?
There is a website lurking on the WWW from an outfit that calls itself ‘DOAJ Publications’ or ‘Doaj publisher’. They have a Twitter account too.
