A new development of the Scientific and Research Laboratory of Progressive Technological Processes of Plastic Deformation "Power Gear from a Shape Memory Material" was presented at this exhibition. The exhibit aroused great interest among the visitors of the exhibition and members of the competition jury, and as a result was awarded a gold medal. A separate award was given by the Ministry of National Education of Romania – a national diploma and a medal.
"Participation in such exhibitions not only enhances the University prestige - says Vladimir Glushchenkov, Scientific Advisor of the development team. - Of course, that’s great to receive an award - it helps to commercialize the product. But a confession obtained in such exhibitions helps us to understand that we really work on a promising direction. Usually the mount of exhibition member is attended by 3-5 members of the international jury. But at this time our mount attracted the attention of 17 jury members! And all of them unanimously put the highest scores to the exhibit."
