The current paper is aimed to investigate the deformability effects of the bearing surface on the lubrication performance of cylindrical journal bearing with finite length under turbulent conditions. The bush is coated with a thin resilient layer with a smooth surface, the radial distortions of which are of the same order of magnitude as the film thickness. The elastohydrodynamic problem is studied under elasticity conditions in accordance with the plain strain hypothesis (Winkler model). The modified Reynolds equation is carried out on the base of the turbulent lubrication model of Hirs (bulk flow model). The partial differential equation is solved numerically by successive over-relaxation technique on a finite difference grid, considering different values of coating materials, lubricant viscosity, and journal speed. Results for the performance characteristics of the bearing are given for several selected values of Reynolds number and elasticity parameters of the soft liner on the bush.

Natural ingredients rich in antioxidants and polyphenols in the forme of extracts, essential oils, organic acids have been used in the production of different cosmetic products. In the development of new cosmetic compositions, or the improvement of products already implemented in production, the evaluation of the user is of great importance, as it directly affects the demand for a given product. The present study aimed to produce phytocosmetic creams based on stearic acid with extracts of dry flower and fruit juice of Sambucus nigra L. (S. nigra) and to investigatein parallel their potential as substitutes for conventional preservatives. The obtained creams were determined for minimum inhibitory, and minimum bactericidal activity using three bacterial strains (Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC25923, Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6633). In addition, the antibacterial effect of creams against Escherichia coli (BW 28357) was determined. In our experiments we found that addition of dried flower extracts or elderberry fruit extracts from S. nigra in the emulsion does not disturb the compositional system. In conclusion, according to the results, the Sambucus nigra L. extracts from dry flowers and elderberry fruitsare appropriate for use in cosmetic emulsions that demonstated antioxidant stability and antibacterial properties.

The main purpose of this work is to examine ingots of steel grades 35HGSL, GS-34CrMo4 and GS-42CrMo4 and to obtain data on the microstructure and mechanical properties in the cast state and after heat treatment. Based on the results, it is necessary to evaluate the effectiveness of the heat treatment used and possibly prove its justification, since this type of additional treatment is usually recommended to improve the quality of materials, but it is not mandatory, as in the present case. The economic costs of the manufacturer for conducting heat treatment can be a good solution only in the case of achieved better performance indicators of the materials, and the energy efficiency of the applied processes is essential. For all these reasons, as a result of researches will be created databases, which will give the opportunity to definite opinion on the problem.

The present study examines the process of biomethanization of cow manure in an anaerobic environment, in the presence of small amounts of Bi(III) complex of sulfamic acid. Since this complex has good antimicrobial activity, the purpose of adding the complex is to determine its effect on biogas and methane production. The reference samples (cow manure only) and mixtures of cow manure + 10 mg and cow manure + 20 mg of bismuth complex with a composition [Bi6O4(OH)4](NH2SO3)6 are subjected to biodegradation under the following conditions – duration of 33 days, nitrogen atmosphere and temperature of 34.5 ± 1°C. During the process, the volume of biogas and the percentage content of methane in biogas are measured in 2 - 3 days as well. The analyses performed reveal that until the 10th day, the amount of biogas produced increases constantly and is comparable both for the control samples and for the mixtures. Further, until the end of the experiment, a significant and constant increase in the volume of biogas produced by the mixtures is observed compared to the control samples.Regarding the percentage of methane produced by the reference samples and the mixtures, comparable relative amounts are found by the 7th day. From the 8th day to the 33rd day, the percentage of methane released by the mixtures is visibly greater than that by the reference samples.

Pure silicon oxide was produced in this study utilizing a sodium silicate solution made from Kankara clay as a precursor. The Kankara clay that was obtained from Nigeria was first beneficiated to produce pure dried powder clay. After that, the dried powdered clay was treated with heat activation and acid leaching, respectively. In a 500 mL Erlenmeyer flask, appropriate amounts of each clay (raw, thermally treated clay, and leached clay) were reacted with 3M NaOH solution. The flask was heated to 200°C and stirred continuously for 3 hours on a magnetic stirring hot plate connected to a reflux condenser. The solution was filtered to yield sodium silicate solution, which was then precipitated with 3M HCl while constantly stirring to produce a gelly-like white substance. The gel was aged for 18 hours, then washed with de-ionized water several times before being dried at 80°C for 12 hours to get pure white silica particles, which were subsequently described. The XRD analysis revealed that the silicon oxide synthesized is amorphous, but the microstructure evaluation revealed particles aggregation, which is usual in sol-gel synthesized powder.

Cannabis Sativa L., Cannabis Indica and Cannabis Hybrid are widespread plant species that find legal use in many countries around the world. The first of them has found considerable application in medicine, cosmetics, building construction, textile and food industries. Cannabis Indica and Cannabis Hybrid are used as raw materials for the extraction of oils that are used as pain relievers as well as for recreation purposes. The aim of the present study is to compare the polyphenolic composition of extracts from the three types of plants, by the maceration method of dry green leaf mass consisting of inflorescences and leaves. Ethanol (99.9 %) is used as an extractant, and the duration of the maceration process is seven days, at room temperature and stirring. The polyphenol composition is determined using HPLC-DAD method. The following polyphenol composition is found in extracts of Cannabis Sativa L.: epigallocatechin, rutin, myricetin, quercetin and kaempferol. On the other hand, quercetin and kaempferol are detected in the Cannabis Indica samples, while epigallocatechin, quercetin and kaempferol are present in the hybrid sort. In addition, green synthesis of silver nanoparticles by using sunlight or microwave irradiation was carried out to evaluate the reduction properties of three cannabis extracts. The least quantity of silver nanoparticles was obtained in the presence of Cannabis Sativa L. extracts. From the other two species of cannabis, microwave irradiation produces more silver nanoparticles, with smaller sizes, while exposure to direct sunlight produces fewer particles,but with larger sizes.
