AOSR expresses its deep sadness at the departure of Professor Anghel Stanciu

The Academy of Romanian Scientists mourns the departure from this world of Prof. dr. eng. Anghel Stanciu, a leading personality of Romanian higher education and science.

Born on August 15, 1949, in Giurgiu county, Anghel Stanciu graduated from the Bucharest Construction Institute, Faculty of Railways, Roads and Bridges, in 1972, and in 1981 he obtained a doctorate in engineering, specializing in “Geotechnics and Foundations”. Since 1972, he has dedicated himself to his academic career, which he has pursued as assistant professor, head of research, lecturer and professor (since 1992). He was a full professor at the Technical University “Gheorghe Asachi” in Iasi, Faculty of Construction and Hydrotechnics, where he taught “Geotechnics” and “Foundations”. He became a PhD supervisor in 1996. He has carried out a sustained scientific activity, directed towards research in the field of road and bridge construction, with practical applications: reinforced earth solutions in the construction of infrastructures for buildings, experimental study on models of prefabricated foundations, the impact of landslides on land communication routes, new concepts in the analysis of the stability of earth masses, strength, stability, environmental protection for the construction of tunnels, generalization of Coulomb theory in the calculation of thrusts on retaining walls. He has participated in more than 71 research contracts, has coordinated five research grant contracts as project director, has collaborated in the scientific and teaching field with international organisations and associations. He has also participated in congresses, scientific sessions, national and international symposia. He is the author of a scientific work comprising books, university courses, monographs, scientific communications and compendia in the field of civil and industrial construction (115 scientific papers and 16 university courses). His most representative books (as sole author or contributor) are Foundations – Reinforced Earth, 1980; Geotechnics and Foundations – Calculation Examples, Ed. Didactica și Pedagogică, Bucharest, 1983; Structural concrete for accumulations – Gh. Asachi, Iași, 2000; Special Problems of Geotechnics and Foundations, 2002, Junimea Publishing House, Iași; Stanciu A., Lungu I. – Foundations I, Physics and Earth Mechanics – Technical Publishing House, Bucharest, 2006.

Professor Anghel Stanciu was a founding full member of the Academy of Romanian Scientists and president of its Iasi Branch. He was also honorary doctor of U.S.A.M.V. Bucharest; honorary member of ASAS; member of the International Tunneling Association (ITA), since 1993; member of the Romanian Tunnelling Association ART, since 1993, and member of the board of directors since 2003. He received the National Order “Serviciul Credincios” in the rank of Knight for outstanding merits in scientific and teaching activity in 2002 and the same order for outstanding merits in parliamentary activity in 2004.

He was involved in political activity, being one of the Romanian personalities dedicated to the national construction and democratic development of Romania. As a member of the Romanian Parliament, deputy for Iași, since 1992, he has been involved in the legislative and governance process of Romania, carrying out a complex parliamentary activity, materialized by 53 legislative proposals, 227 speeches in the plenary of the two chambers, 39 political statements, 48 questions and interpellations, two motions of censure. He was chairman of the Education Committee of the Chamber of Deputies for almost 10 years, during which time he contributed to the process of reforming Romanian education in the direction of quality and efficiency of advanced education systems in Europe.

As a founding member of the Academy of Romanian Scientists, Professor Anghel Stanciu actively contributed to the post-December reconstruction of the institution – founded in 1935 as the “Romanian Academy of Sciences” – and to the legal foundation of its statute by Law no. 31/2007, when it became an institution of public interest. He was involved with conviction and dedication in the development and affirmation of the AOSR in the national and international academic space, being, through his academic activity and scientific work, one of its emblematic members. He also made a fundamental contribution to the development of the Iasi Section of AOSR, of which he was President.

With the departure of Professor Anghel Stanciu, a personality of great value in Romanian higher education and research, the Academy of Romanian Scientists loses an elite member and a great friend.

With deep sorrow and endless regrets, the community of the Academy of Romanian Scientists mourns this heavy loss and sends its condolences to the bereaved family!

May God rest him and place him among the Righteous!

Involving the community in thinking and supporting authenticity

“Authenticity” means finding the shape of our future, activism, involvement and concern for improving the quality of people’s lives as seen through the prism of the architectural profession.

Essentially, community engagement is the inclusion of divergent views to reach consensus.

Architects’ work always has an impact on communities, from one family to the whole city. Architects’ client goals may sometimes be aligned with those of a community, other times they may be in conflict, for example when the architect represents a private client whose project goals are in conflict with neighborhoods or other constituents. Because the work produced by architects affects communities in different ways and at different scales, it becomes important to create a project for the client as well as the community. This is essential for an excellent result. Architects engage more deeply and authentically when they understand the historical context and the systemic context in which the profession is seen. When intended to serve clients, the impact on society is not always perceived positively by the community and users, those who experience the project. When community experience is negative, architects’ work can be seen as imposed.

Sincerity serves to provide solutions, being authentic in the community means sharing information that invites people’s participation, it means understanding people’s experiences, which can help improve the quality of their lives. Genuine engagement can be built on an honest relationship with the community.

From an urban planning point of view there are crucial issues such as accessibility, residents’ movement, traffic, densification. Therefore, in any engagement process, the key to connection is the use of fair practice principles that can become the basis for aligning good intention with good outcome. The vision of a community and its aspirations is important.

The original intention of a project may differ from the final decision, but it is closer to the idea of a genuine project that includes community involvement.

Community engagement can be thought of as a social science that does not ignore the fact that we live in a country with a great diversity of dynamic and diverse communities. Data collection and research is the key to genuine connection.

Conference “Digital Telemedicine Platform 116117”

We know that in Romania there is a real difficulty in getting in touch with a doctor when we are faced with a medical situation, no matter how serious it is. There is a dwindling number of practising doctors, with only 700 emergency doctors in Romania.

The options currently available to solve a sudden medical problem are as follows:

  1. call the family doctor who answers if it is during office hours;
  2. call a friend/relative doctor;
  3. we call 112 asking for a rescue, sometimes unnecessarily consuming important resources from the state budget;
  4. Using our own transport, we go to the emergency room of the nearest hospital, where, if our medical situation is not life-threatening, we can wait several hours until a doctor is available.

*

Statistics for 2022 show that more than 70% of referrals to Emergency Departments (EDs) in large hospitals are minor cases that can be handled online. Also, on the single emergency number 112, during the same year, out of 10 million calls, about 1.5 million were non-emergency medical calls, calls that overwhelm and choke the system with situations for which 112 does not yet have a protocol. This has prompted the STS (Special Telecommunications Service) to initiate an extensive media campaign to inform and educate the entire population, so that we all call 112 only for EMERGENCY medical cases. This campaign ran for two months last autumn.

*

Together with the National Red Cross Society of Romania, eTELEDOC has developed a digital platform that can be the basis for the establishment of a National Permanence Centre, following the model of those already existing in Italy, Germany and Finland, to take over and manage non-emergency situations, with the allocation of the unique short number 116117 dedicated to this medical case throughout the European Union.

In this way, anyone facing a sudden medical situation can access the 116117 service 24 hours a day and be put in direct contact with a doctor able to offer advice, support or guidance depending on the medical situation. This provides expert triage of all requests to the on-call rooms, decongesting these services which are meant to deal only with life-threatening emergencies.

The platform has 4 work streams, namely: adult consultations, paediatric consultations, English consultations and hearing and speech impaired consultations, for the last one the subtitling attribute is implemented.

Access to the doctor will be done either in the app via video call or by telephone by dialling the short number 116117 from any type of telephone, in any area of the country, on a 24-hour basis. Doctors from the specialties of general medicine/family medicine will work on the platform. Consultations will be paid for by the National Health Insurance House, following the model of the statements made for the work of family doctors in the Centres of Permanence.

The Academy of Romanian Scientists (AOSR) was awarded, on 31 May 2023, by the Dâmbovița County Council within the “Excellence Gala of Dâmbovița County 2023” for its contribution to the development of the county. Archbishop Nifon, AOSR member, underlined in the opening of the Gala the involvement of the academic environment in the development of the County.

The award was presented by the President of the AOSR, Prof. Dr. Eng. Adrian Badea, who in his speech presented a brief history of the Academy, as well as the collaboration with the Valahia University of Targoviste and the Dâmbovița County Council. Mrs. AOSR Vice President, prof. dr. eng. Doina Banciu.

The Excellence Gala was attended by senators, deputies, Minister of Culture – Lucian Romașcanu, Minister of Health – Alexandru Rafila, as well as other dignitaries from the central administration, mayors, councillors and other local government officials.

The late Professor Ion Cucui, president of the AOSR Targoviste branch, was awarded a post-mortem prize for his entire activity.

Traditions and research for life and health

The research of medicinal plants, especially those of the local wild flora, began after the organisation of the Botanical Garden in 1950. The first researches aimed at highlighting the number of indigenous species with high content of active principles and gathering information about their use in folk and scientific medicine.

The knowledge of medicinal plants, so widely used today, represents the combination of the tradition of empirical medicine with the most recent research in this field, a valuable treasure offered by the nature of man and animals to cure various diseases.

In the multi-millennial coexistence with the surrounding nature, man has been concerned to know as much as possible about the plants existing in the vegetation in the area where he lived, looking for possibilities to use them in different fields, such as food, building materials, industry, dyeing, beekeeping, dendrology, cosmetics and in the prevention and cure of many physical and mental diseases.

1. Presentation and approval of the Report on the scientific activity of the AOSR in 2022 and the Financial Report for 2022;
2. Approval of the Draft Statute of the AOSR;
3. Discussion on the documents presented;
4. Voting of candidates for AOSR membership(full members, corresponding members, honorary members and post-mortem honorary members).

The Presidium of the General Assembly was composed of: prof. dr. eng. Adrian Badea, President of AOSR, prof. univ. dr. eng. Doina Banciu, Vice-President, Scientific Researcher I Dr. Doru-Sabin Delion, Vice-President, Prof. Dr. Ing. Petru Andea, Scientific Secretary.

President Adrian Badea presented the general situation of the Academy of Romanian Scientists, the priorities for action and the concerted institutional efforts to meet the highest academic standards of the mission enshrined in the Statute, which defines the Academy of Romanian Scientists as a “national forum of scientific consecration”, as well as the Financial Report for 2022.

He informed those present that the AOSR will operate under a new law, Law 121/2023, recently promulgated by the President of Romania, which strengthens the status of the institution and creates a new framework for its development.

Vice President Doru-Sabin Delion presented the scientific research activity of the AOSR, which is at a high level in terms of volume and quality, certified by the presence in databases and the number of citations. Through its research results, the AOSR enjoys international visibility, being included in the prestigious SCIMAGO-Elsevier international ranking.

Only two Romanian academic institutions are present in the top 800 of the world ranking: The Romanian Academy and the Academy of Romanian Scientists. A major element of the AOSR’s work is the annual research programme for young researchers at postdoctoral level, which enjoys great interest and generates national competition. Through this programme to encourage and support young researchers, AOSR participates in the development of Romanian research. Prof. dr. eng. Doina Banciu, Vice President of AOSR and Director General of the Institute for Advanced Interdisciplinary Research “Constantin Angelescu”, presented its activity, the projects carried out and in progress and the development lines of the Institute, which pays special attention to the digitization process in the fields of scientific research.

In accordance with Law 121/2023, which stipulates that the Statute of the AOSR is approved by the General Assembly, the main provisions of the new Statute were discussed in the continuation of the work of the General Assembly. It sets out, among other things, new criteria for admission and promotion in the AOSR, as well as the cases in which membership may be lost. After debate, the Statute of the AOSR was approved by the General Assembly by unanimous vote and will be published in the Official Journal, Part I.

As an Academy, founded in 1935, with more than 88 years of existence, we exist with a well-defined purpose – and not a circumstantial one – to concentrate real intelligence and values, to be a pole of advanced research and to participate, with all our potential, in the development of the country through knowledge. We approach this process with full good faith and dedication, under the authority of the values of academic ethics and integrity, fairness, conscience and responsibility. Through all its activities, programmes and projects, the Academy of Romanian Scientists, which includes leading personalities of science and education, is a valuable institution of the country for which, more than anything else, the results, visibility and ranking in international hierarchies speak for themselves.”
