Application of potential theory in calculating wave-induced vertical forces on horizontal cylinders near a plane boundary
PublicationHydrodynamiczne obciażenia wywołane falowaniem morskim działajace na poziomo ułożoną przy dnie rurę, rozpatrywane są w ujęciu dyfrakcyjnym przy założeniu istnienia funkcji potencjału. Potencjał zdefiniowano jako superpozycję potencjału fali inicjującej oraz potencjału perturbacji spowodowanej istnieniem obiektu przy dnie.

Chloroacridine derivatives as potential anticancer agents which may act as tricarboxylic acid cycle enzyme inhibitors
PublicationThe chloroacridines affect biological forms of melanoma in different ways. Amelanotic (Ab) melanoma (with inhibited melanogenesis and higher malignancy) was particularly sensitive to the action of the chloroacridines. The Ab melanoma cells died through apoptosis and through death without caspase activation. Diminished activity of TAC enzymes was noticed among Ab melanoma cells together with ATP/NAD depletion, especially in the...

A multi‑criteria approach to investigate spatial distribution,sources, and the potential toxicological effect of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in sediments of urban retention tanks
PublicationBottom sediments deposited in retention tanks (RTs) located on two urban streams (Oliwski and Strzyza) in the central part of Gdansk (Poland) were analysed for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons’ (PAHs) content. PAHs were extracted from samples with methylene chloride, then the extracts were subjected to clean-up applying the solid phase extraction (SPE) method. Quantitative and qualitative determination of 16 PAHs was performed...

New procedure of silica gel surface modification-preparation of gaseous standard mixtures of methyl chloride using the technique of thermal decomposition of the surface compound for calibration of a TD-GC-FID system.
PublicationPrzedstawiono nową procedurę modyfikacji powierzchni żelu krzemionkowego w celu wytworzenia związku powierzchniowego będącego źródłem chlorku metylu. Minimalna temperatura rozkładu (150 st. C) zapewnia trwałość chemicznie modyfikowanego złoża w temp. pokojowej. Badania prowadzono w temperaturze optymalnej (280 st.C). Stwierdzono, że powierzchnia żelu jest obsadzona jednorodnie przez związek powierzchniowy i gazowa mieszanina wzorcowa...

Smooth Orthogonal Projections on Riemannian Manifold
PublicationWe construct a decomposition of the identity operator on a Riemannian manifold M as a sum of smooth orthogonal projections subordinate to an open cover of M. This extends a decomposition on the real line by smooth orthogonal projection due to Coifman and Meyer (C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris, S´er. I Math., 312(3), 259–261 1991) and Auscher, Weiss, Wickerhauser (1992), and a similar decomposition when M is the sphere by Bownik and Dziedziul (Const....
