Abstract

IN MEMORIAM (instead of an abstract) The present paper is dedicated to the memory our former colleague Liviu Crudu, who re-cently passed away leaving behind many projects he enthusiastically designed. Doubt-lessly, Liviu has always been among the most intellectually gifted person, curious and en-thusiast of acquiring up-to-date information related to this profession.Since his first working day of his professional career, he proved to be not only a very hard working per-son, but also a very inventive one.His collaboration and leadership skills were always truly impressive, and his capstone project on designing the six-component dynamometer described in the present paper won glowing reviews not only from her peers but also from the other faculty members.
