Abstract The review of Noveck’s Experimental Pragmatics shows that the book is a much-needed synthesis. It provides a mostly ToM- and Grice-based interpretation of experimental results in scalar inference, deixis, and logical errors. The main missing points are related to an almost exclusively descriptive view of language, and the under-elaboration of the issue of the background of knowledge processes. Rather than as a whole, the book shall be a central starting point for further broader approaches to the emerging field of experimental research in pragmatics.

This paper presents the works carried out by the authors in the field of structural and functional optimization of industrial robot's numerically controlled (NC) axes. The study includes the results obtained in the research stage of the experimental measurements performed to evaluate the electrical servomotor's thermal behavior using a thermal (infrared) imaging camera. The analyzed servomotor is a brushless servomotor integrated in an experimental stand for linear motion NC axis experimental research, existing in the MMS department from EMTS faculty. Supplementary to the driving servomotor, the experimental stand includes a belt drive transmission, a ball screw - bearings assembly and a driven element guided by ball rail system. This experimental research phase is part of the doctoral thesis of first author and was conducted in order to validate the mathematical models developed in the PhD thesis. Thus, experimental results presented in the paper have been used to validate first mathematical models for electric motor's preliminary selection and checking, (performed by determining the total reflected inertia of the mechanical system on motor shaft level) as well as the mathematical models for final selection and checking (by evaluating the servomotor's thermal energy dissipation, and servomotor's internal and external maximum operating temperature). Second, the experimental results have been used to validate the assisted simulation for structural and functional optimization of industrial robot's NC axes based on both servomotor and drive's thermal behavior analysis, performed in the thesis by means of a dedicated commercial software package.

Carburizing Process

The paper presents experimental results regarding the evolution of hardness and impact energy of some sintered steels alloyed with 1.5% respective 3% (weight) copper powders. For the experimental research were used 3 mixtures: Fe+0.2C as reference, Fe+0.2C+1.5Cu, Fe+0.2C+3Cu. All the samples were die pressed at three pressures 400, 500 and 600 MPa and were subjected at three types of treatments as following: SINT, SINTCARB and CARBSINT. For the sintering treatments was used argon atmosphere and for carburizing process was used methane. After each treatment the hardness and impact energy for all the samples were measured and were made correlations between these properties and the type of treatment and copper content.

The chemistry composition of the high temperature oxidization under loads has been analyzed for the Cr5Mo alloy in this paper. The experimental research to the Fe, Cr and O elements have also been done. The difference between loads and no loads has been emphasized to the chemistry elements of the Cr5Mo alloy. The experimental results showed that the temperature couldn’t change the rate of the chemistry elements, but the loads could change them. The chemistry elements Fe ，Mo and Cr could change more obvious than other elements of the Cr5Mo alloy in this paper.

Xanthan Gum Solution

While there is no single analytical model that accurately predicts all stages and modes of secondary atomization, many groups have developed models that predict deformation and oscillation of a single, isolated drop. The TAB (Taylor Analogy Breakup) model was chosen for this investigation, mainly due to its widespread use by Liu and Reitz [1], Hwang et al. [2], Tanner [3], and Lee and Reitz [4], among others. Since the TAB model is also the foundation for many other analytical models, it will also be used here as a starting point for the development of a viscoelastic non-Newtonian model to predict droplet deformed radii, droplet deformation time, and velocity at deformation time for viscoelastic xanthan gum - DI water solutions. Three additional improvements are made to this viscoelastic TAB model: the first is a change to a TAB coefficient; the second to the equation for the drag coefficient, and the third modification is to the breakup criterion. This model uses Carreau rheology and Zimm relaxation time. Non-dimensional drop diameter and initiation times are plotted against We; model results are compared to experimental results for a range of xanthan gum solution concentrations. Results show fair agreement between experimental results and model results for non-dimensional drop diameter, with the best match at low XG concentration and low-to-medium We (10–30). It was also noted that increased viscoelasticity seems to increase this drop diameter. Good agreement between experimental data and model results has been seen for initiation time, with increased viscoelasticity increasing this parameter as well.

Active Composite

This paper describes new active composite structures based on thermoplastic matrices which contain material homogeneous embedded piezoceramic modules. Starting point is the development of novel thermoplastic compatible piezoceramic modules, so called TPMs. By the utilization of the same matrix material for the composite structure and for the TPM carrier films, these modules afford an opportunity to become directly embedded into the component during its manufacturing process. In this context, the manufacturing technology of the TPMs and of the active composite structure is presented. Furthermore, selected test samples are investigated concerning their modal behavior. Based on the determined characteristics a linear two-port model is used for the reproduction of the experimental results.

The paper presents the numerical analysis of the impact of removing a corner column on the behavior of a continuous slab-column structure. The model uses the minimal reinforcement amount compliant with Eurocodes. The basis for numerical modelling was the experimental research of a piece of a slab-column structure with the dimensions of 3.0×3.0 m in column axes. The article includes a detailed description of the assumed conditions of the model support, the method of loading and reading of the results. The paper also compares the obtained results of numerical calculations with experimental results.

Guidelines for selecting the shape formed by metal discharged from a narrow Al line were developed. By controlling electromigration in the line, either relatively large microspheres, thin wires, or relatively small microspheres could be formed. Our starting point was a passivated polycrystalline Al line with a slit and small holes at the anode end of it. In the discussion, we describe how the temperature of a part of a wire, T*, at the moment when the part is completely discharged from the hole, affects the shape of the microstructural feature formed from the metal. High, intermediate, and low values of T* were found to correspond to the formation of large microspheres, thin wires, and small microspheres, respectively. The experimental results are explained in the discussion.

The experiment discussed influences of basalt fiber with different adulterate amount to the compressive and fracture resistance properties of waterproof concrete C50. We also made comparison between experimental results and mechanical property of polypropylene fiber waterproof concrete. The experimental results demonstrated that the brittle failure character of waterproof concrete has been improved to some extent, and the compressive and fracture resistance strength of the test specimen has increased apparently after adulterating basalt fiber and polypropylene fiber. Furthermore, it is mainly unanimous of the influence regular patterns of basalt fiber and polypropylene fiber to waterproof concrete when adulterating the same amount.
