Cutting Tests of the Outer Layer of Material Using Onion as an Example.

This paper describes experimental research on cutting the outer layer of onions in the machine peeling process. The authors' own globally innovative modular machine construction was used for this purpose. The onion peeling machine was constructed on a real scale.

An Edge-Fog-Cloud Architecture of Streaming Analytics for Internet of Things Applications.

Exploring Internet of Things (IoT) data streams generated by smart cities means not only transforming data into better business decisions in a timely way but also generating long-term location intelligence for developing new forms of urban governance and organization policies. This paper proposes a new architecture based on the edge-fog-cloud continuum to analyze IoT data streams for delivering data-driven insights in a smart parking scenario.

Angiosarcoma of the scalp: a case report.

Purpose: The aim of this paper is to report the treatment of angiosarcoma of the scalp. High-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy with an individual mold applicator is presented.

Case Description: A case of a 75-year-old male will be presented with multicentric lesions over the scalp in the temple and crown region.

Analytical and toxicological studies of decomposition of insecticide parathion after gamma-irradiation and ozonation.

The decomposition of the widely used organophosphorus pesticide parathion was carried out in aqueous solutions by the use of gamma-irradiation from a 60Co source or ozonation by means of an ozone generator, and by combined processes of ozonation and radiolysis. Factors affecting the parathion decomposition as well formation and decomposition of the main by-products, including irradiation dose, length of ozonation time, and presence of common scavengers, were investigated. The most efficient was found to be the gamma-irradiation process combined with a short ozonation period; about 1 kGy irradiation dose was sufficient to decompose the pesticide in 15 mg/L solutions.
