Triglycine sulphate crystal (TGS) is a hybrid organic-inorganic ferroelectric crystal with a large electronic band-gap, transparent in visible spectra. It has large applications in electronics, as thermal IR detector. Pure and doped TGS crystals of 3-5 cm linear dimensions were grown at constant temperature in the paraelectric phase (52 oC), by slow solvent evaporation. Pure TGS samples show non-reproducible values of permittivity and losses in the ferroelectric phase after the “excursion” in the paraelectric phase. Walking up and down the crystal temperature, using a special program, the permitivity and losses were automatically recorded and analyzed. There is a continuous decrease of permittivity towards an equilibrium value during a long period of time. Previous AFM measurements from the literature have revealed peculiar aspects of domain dynamics. The relaxation process of permittivity was considered according to the equation er = A - B exp(-t/t). However, surprisingly, there is not a unique relaxation time t. For the first 500 sec (or so), the relaxation time is t » 7 minutes, while between the next time decades 1.000 - 10.000 - 100.000 sec, it is approximately 1 hour and 8 h respectively. The process is related with the ferroelectric domain’s dynamics, which are more or less strongly pined by dislocations or some other lattice defects.
硫酸甘油三酯晶体(TGS)是一种有机-无机杂化铁电晶体,具有较大的电子带隙,可见光谱透明。它在电子领域有广泛的应用,如热红外探测器。通过缓慢的溶剂蒸发,在52℃的准电相中恒温生长出线性尺寸为3-5 cm的纯和掺杂TGS晶体。纯TGS样品在准电相“偏移”后,铁电相的介电常数和损耗值不可重现。在晶体温度上下行走时,使用专用程序自动记录和分析介电常数和损耗。在很长一段时间内,介电常数不断地向一个平衡值下降。以前的AFM测量从文献中揭示了域动力学的特殊方面。根据方程er = A - B exp(-t/t)考虑介电常数的弛豫过程。然而,令人惊讶的是,没有一个唯一的弛豫时间t。在前500秒(大约),弛豫时间为t»7分钟,而在接下来的几十年中,1.000 - 10.000 - 100.000秒,分别约为1小时和8小时。这一过程与铁电畴的动力学有关,而铁电畴的动力学或多或少受到位错或其他晶格缺陷的强烈影响。

Critical-sized defects in bone induced by trauma have in numerous presented cases difficult challenges to the current treatment for bone repair. The main purpose of bone tissue engineered scaffolds is to use advanced materials to promote the natural healing process of bone which does not easily occur in critical-sized defects or on metallic implants. A synthetic bone scaffold and a coating on Ti implants must be biocompatible and biodegradable to allow the native tissue integration, and mimic the chemical composition and structure of native bone. In addition to being physically and chemically biomimetic, an ideal scaffold and the coating layers on metallic implants must be capable of releasing essential physiologic elements, like Mg, Zn, Sr and Si, and also containing bioactive molecules (e.g., collagen, COL) to accelerate extracellular matrix production and tissue integration. Also, these advanced materials might be doped with drugs (e.g., antibiotics, such as vancomycin) to prevent undesired biological response such as infections, especially with Staphylococcus aureus, S. aureus. Various biomaterials include hydroxyapatite (HAP) ceramics or multifunctional hydroxyapatite substituted with Mg, Zn, Sr and Si, mf-HAP, polymers, such as poly lactic acid (PLA, approved for medical applications by Food and Drug Administration, US FDA, and collagen, or their mixtures as biomimetic composites which have been investigated for their potential as bone scaffold materials and coatings on metallic implants. This article briefly reviews the physical and chemical characteristics of used advanced materials and describes the key-technologies in mimicking the physical and chemical environment of bone using synthetic materials, and provides an over view of local drug delivery as it pertains to bone tissue engineering.

All metallic alloys undergo some surface pretreatment before coating deposition. This preparation step influences the surface roughness and can also change the surface chemical composition, therefore influencing the coating adhesion and the physicochemical characteristics of the coated alloy. Choosing an appropriate surface pretreatment can maximize the coated alloys performances. In this work, we aimed to comparatively analyze the surface of the Ti-Zr-Ta-Ag alloy before and after two different surface pretreatments. The surface composition and morphology were investigated using atomic force microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and energy dispersive spectroscopy, while surface energy and mechanical properties were investigated using contact angle measurement and Vickers hardness test.

Romania, as a maritime state, after being separated from the Black Sea coast for 400 years, until the War of Independence in 1877, has a tradition in the marine sciences for over 100 years. The illustrious ancestors of Romanian oceanography, especially biological oceanography, are Emil Racoviță, Grigore Antipa and Ioan Borcea. From an oceanographic point of view, E. Racovitza distinguished himself as a biologist of the famous Antarctic multinational expedition, under the command of Captain Adrien de Gerlache, from Belgium, aboard the vessel Belgica, between 1997 and 1998. G. Antipa is the founder of the Bio-Oceanographic Institute in Constanța (1932) and of the Biological Research Station in Caliacra (currently in Bugaria) and in this context he held the positions of organizer, general administrator and director general of the State Fisheries, as the second national delegate of Romania at the International Commission for the Scientific Exploration of the Mediterranean Sea (CIESM), and as rapporteur for the Black Sea, Marmara and the Eastern Mediterranean, as well as organizer of the first Congress and General Assembly of CIESM in Romania in Bucharest in 1935. I. Borcea's main scientific achievement is the creation of the Marine Zoological Station in Agigea, in 1926, which bears his name to this day, with the maintenance of close collaborative relations in the field of marine biology, especially with France and Italy. The main marine research institutions, namely the Marine Zoological Station “Professor Ioan Borcea”, the Bio-Oceanographic Institute, which later became the Fisheries Research Station “Dr. Grigore Antipa”, the Marine Biology Sector from Constanța of the “Traian Săvulescu” Institute of Biology from Bucharest, the Oceanographic Research Station from Constanța and Sulina and the Marine Sedimentology Laboratory, affiliated to the Geological Institute of Romania, merged into the Romanian Marine Research Institute (RMRI) from Constanța on March 1, 1970. The succesor of RMRI since 1990 is the National Institute for Marine Research and Development “Grigore Antipa”, in the same headquarters (Bd. Mamaia No. 300, RO-900581 Constanța). A definite confirmation of the value of the results of the Romanian marine research, over time, is, among others, the close professional relationships with CIESM, continued to the present. Thus, Romania has further promoted and supports marine research at national, regional and international level.

"The present paper provides a brief presentation of the evolution of Romania’s national economy in the period September 1940 - August 1944, as indicate the published bibliography and unpublished archive documents of the time. It addresses the national economy and the policy of “Romanianization”, aimed at transferring the industrial and commercial enterprises and assets owned by Jews, Greeks, Armenians and Italians or Romanian citizens belonging to the aforementioned ethnic groups, to state ownership. Command of these economic enterprises was given by the state to the so-called ""commissioners of Romanianization"". They had to organize the economy in order to meet the needs of the anti-Soviet front. In reality, the Romanian state wanted to protect the local capital, regardless of the ethnicity of the owner/owners, from the offensive of the German capital which sought to regain its privileged and dominant positions from 1914-1916. The economy of the Antonescu regime, rid of the legionary Romanianization commissioners, who sought only to enrich themselves in connivance with the Jewish owners, pursued a strict planning of the war economy, in order to obtain maximum quantities of products and good quality for the supply of the ”Eastern Front” and of the cities, and to counter the economic sabotage set up by the Communist Party of Romania, which was illegal and totally subordinated to the interests of the USSR."

The low and intermediate level activity wastes resulted from decommissioning of the VVR-S nuclear research reactor belonging to the “Horia Hulubei” National Institute for R&D in Physics and Nuclear Engineering (IFIN-HH), are kept in an intermediary storage facility. The storage is located on the premises of the Institute near Bucharest, Romania and includes activated graphite from the reactor thermal column. In case of a very low probability hypothetical atmospheric radiological dispersal incident such as an unexpected fire, despite all the implemented safety measures, there is a certain radiological risk for the workers and general public due to potential ingestion or inhalation or contact with the radioactive aerosols released on a certain range from the storage building. For estimating the total gamma dose intake and adequate countermeasures for workers and public members, the JRODOS (Real-time On-line Decision Support) code system for off-site emergency management after nuclear accidents was used in the paper.

Rapid industrialization along with the use of modern practices in agriculture led to the discharge into the environment of various pollutants from which metals and metalloids are the most identified. The presence of metals in soil affects soil fertility, the growth and development of plants, and finally causing different negative effects on human health such respiratory problems, damage to endocrine and nervous systems and other dysfunction. Over time, various techniques have been used to remove pollutants from contaminated media, but most of these techniques are expensive, produce secondary contaminants and modify the structure and fertility of the soil. Thus, in recent years considerable attention has been accorded to biological methods. Plants and microorganisms may exhibit different behavior and degree of tolerance in the presence of metals.

The special relationship between the great historian and patriot Nicolae Iorga and the 9th Hunters Regiment was founded on two elements, both of a subjective nature; 1. the high regard in which the historian duly held officer Gheorghe Rasoviceanu, battalion commander and subsequently commander of the 9th Hunters Regiment for five years, from October, 7th 1916 to October 7th 1921; 2. the presence of his son, Petre Iorga, and his sonin-law, officer Dimitrie Chirescu, future general (married to Florica Iorga) in the 9th Hunters Regiment. We find Second Lieutenant Petre N. Iorga in the Regiment, as Head of the Intelligence Office from June 16th 1917, taking part in the great battle of Mărășești, Muncelu and Poienile Popii (July-August 1917) and captain Dimitrie Chirescu from August 15th 1916 and the autumn of 1919. It was only natural then for the great historian to take such an interest in the Regiment and to nervously and eagerly follow its development throughout this period.
伟大的历史学家和爱国者尼古拉·约尔加与第9猎团之间的特殊关系建立在两个因素之上,这两个因素都是主观的;1. 从1916年10月7日到1921年10月7日,这位历史学家对营长、后来担任第9猎团团长的乔治·拉索维切亚努军官给予了高度的尊重;2. 他的儿子,彼得·约尔加,和他的女婿,军官迪米特里·奇雷斯库,未来的将军(娶了弗罗里卡·约尔加)在第9猎人团。从1917年6月16日起,我们发现该团的少尉彼得·n·约尔加(Petre N. Iorga)担任情报局局长,参加了Mărășești, Muncelu和Poienile Popii的伟大战役(1917年7月至8月),从1916年8月15日到1919年秋天,上尉迪米特里·奇雷斯库(Dimitrie Chirescu)。当时,这位伟大的历史学家对这个团产生了如此浓厚的兴趣,并紧张而急切地关注着它在整个时期的发展,这是很自然的。
