Lattice filter based multivariate autoregressive spectral estimation with joint model order and estimation bandwidth adaptation
PublicationThe problem of parametric, autoregressive model based estimation of a time-varying spectral density function of a multivariate nonstationary process is considered. It is shown that estimation results can be considerably improved if identification of the autoregressive model is carried out using the two-sided doubly exponentially weighted lattice algorithm which combines results yielded by two one-sided lattice algorithms running...

Knowledge work and knowledge workers in knowledge-based economy - theoretical considerations
PublicationIt is often claimed that an organization is as good as people working in it and that talented workers are the driving force of an organization. To cope with the growing requirements of knowledge-based economy, organizations need a special type of workers - knowledge workers. This is especially important in organizations building their competitive advantage on innovations and the application of information and communication technologies...

Development and test of fex, a fingers extending exoskeleton for rehabilitation and regaining mobility
PublicationThis paper presents the design process of an exoskeleton for executing human fingers' extension movement for the rehabilitation procedures and as an active orthosis purposes, together with its first clinical usability tests of a robotic exoskeleton. Furthermore, the Fingers Extending eXoskeleton (FEX) is a serial, under-actuated mechanism capable of executing fingers' extension. FEX is based on the state-of-art FingerSpine serial...

Computer Supported Analysis of the Human Body Surface Area
PublicationRecent scientific studies show the growing importance of the coefficients: BSA and TBSA, as an alternative to the widely used BMI. The relevant indicators are widely used in medicine, including such areas as: the treatment of burns, chemotherapy, dermatology and toxicology; as benchmarks when calculating doses of drugs and fluids. The particular problems concerning this subject are: the change of the reference parameter value which...

Particulate Matter Production of Small Heat Source Depending on the Bark Content in Wood Pellets
PublicationWood pellets as biofuel are more and more used in small heat sources in Europe. Standard wood pellets are produced from wood sawdust without bark. The paper deals about the impact of bark in wood pellets on their properties and combustion process. Special attention in this work is paid to production of particulate matter during combustion of wood pellets depending on bark content. There were experimentally produced spruce wood...

Co-gasification of waste biomass-low grade coal mix using downdraft gasifier coupled with dual-fuel engine system: Multi-objective optimization with hybrid approach using RSM and Grey Wolf Optimizer
PublicationThe looming global crisis over increasing greenhouse gases and rapid depletion of fossil fuels are the motivation factors for researchers to search for alternative fuels. There is a need for more sustainable and less polluting fuels for internal combustion engines. Biomass offers significant potential as a feed material for gasification to produce gaseous fuel. It is carbon neutral, versatile, and abundant on earth. The present...

Architektura a dekonstrukcja. Przypadek Petera Eisenmana i Bernarda Tschumiego
PublicationArchitecture and Deconstruction Case of Peter Eisenman and Bernard Tschumi Introduction Towards deconstruction in architecture Intensive relations between philosophical deconstruction and architecture, which were present in the late 1980s and early 1990s, belong to the past and therefore may be described from a greater than...
