Ion Nicolaescu's Problem Solving Experience:

  1. - I enabled construction of novel portable device displays and micro-projector prototypes by assuming using ProENGINEER and designing mechanisms and optical layouts.
  2. - I enabled the measurement of molten glass spectra by designing and constructing a spectrometer for visible and infrared light.
  3. - I contributed to the design of the Hot Gas Clean-Up system of the Polk power plant by performing process modeling for heat and material balances, thermodynamics, flow pressure loss, and heat transfer.
  4. - I produced experimental proof of the possibility of producing aluminum nitride with high yield at temperatures lower than in current industrial processes.
  5. - I designed and built portable sensors for body temperature, pulse, and blood pressure monitoring, including their electronics for signal conditioning and power sources, and system integration. I developed data fusion algorithms for extracting information from extremely noisy signals.
  6. - I enabled design of displays and micro-projectors for portable devices by developing analytical programs for modeling LED and laser diode light sources.
    - I performed electrical, radiometric, and photometric measurements for light collection efficiency, color balance, power, and heat management.
    - I designed heat management systems for light engines.
