Investigation on polypropylene friction stir joint: effects of tool tilt angle on heat flux, material flow and defect formation
PublicationTool tilt angle (TTA) is a critical factor that can control material flow in polymeric materials' friction stir joining (FSJ). This study selected a TTA range between 0° to 4° for FSJ of polypropylene (PP) polymer sheet. A modified computational fluid dynamic (CFD) technique was implemented to gain a deep understanding of the effects of TTA during FSJ of PP. The PP joint's internal flow, defect formation, heat generation, and tensile...

Analiza warunków pracy silnika spalinowego lokomotywy na biegu jałowym
PublicationW trakcie eksploatacji lokomotyw z silnikami spalinowymi obserwowany jest znaczny udział pracy silnika spalinowego w stanie biegu jałowego. Dlatego też średnia wartość strumienia paliwa zużywanego przez silnik spalinowy lokomotywy w tym stanie będzie miała istotny wpływ na efektywność energetyczną układu napędowego. Wyznaczaniu wartości tego parametru musi towarzyszyć jednoznaczna klasyfikacja warunków pracy układu napędowego lokomotywy....

Ultrasonic Tomography of Brick Columns Based on FEM Calculations
PublicationUltrasonic tomography is one of the most developed method of non-destructive testing. Despite being used mainly in medicine, it is becoming more and more popular as a method for monitoring of structural elements. It allows to examine the internal structure and technical condition of the tested element. This paper investigates the influence of crosssectional geometry on an obtained tomographic image. Wave propagation signals were...

Daily diet containing canned products significantly increases serum concentrations of endocrine disruptor bisphenol A in young women
PublicationNowadays, exposure to environmental factors is considered to be one of the possible causes of several lifestyle diseases, such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. Particularly noteworthy are endocrine‑disrupting chemicals (EDCs), which affect the metabolism of hormones and interact with their receptors, thus exerting adverse health effects. One of the most ubiquitous EDC in daily life is bisphenol A...

Three-dimensional printed trachea helps to design tailored treatment for tracheobronchomalacia
PublicationTracheobronchomalacia is a rare respiratory disease that is manifesting by impaired ventilation with expiratory collapse of the tracheal wall due to softening of the supporting cartilage and hypotonia of myoelastic elements [1]. Surgery is the mainstay of treatment. We report the case of 39 -year old man with exacerbation of chronic respiratory distress. The membranous wall of the trachea and the large bronchi was stretched to...

Neoclassical Navier–Stokes Equations Considering the Gyftopoulos–Beretta Exposition of Thermodynamics
PublicationThe seminal Navier-Stokes equations were stated even before the creation of the foundations of thermodynamics and its first and second laws. There is a widespread opinion in the literature on thermodynamic cycles that the Navier-Stokes equations cannot be taken as a thermodynamically correct model of a local "working fluid", which would be able to describe the conversion of "heating" into "working" (Carnot's type cycles) and vice...

Evaluation of the Effectiveness of Methods for Delimitation of the Boundaries of Registered Parcels in the Process of Modernization of Land and Building Registration
PublicationIn the article, a comparative analysis of two methods for delimitation of the boundaries of registered parcels was carried out: the method of direct measurement in the field and the photogrammetric method. One of the analyzed factors was the attendance of parcels’ owners during the development of boundary recognition agreements. Research has shown that in this aspect the method of direct measurement...

Safety assessment of a concrete viaduct damaged by vehicle impact and an evaluation of the repair
PublicationDamage to lower parts of viaducts caused by impact from under-passing high vehicles is relatively frequent. One such incident, in which a viaduct was damaged by the impact from a truck with an improperly assembled hydraulic crane, is considered in this work. The analysis is based on a detailed object damage evaluation, 3D laser scanning, and numerical simulations. The aim of the study is to accurately model the vehicle impact into...

Prediction of coking dynamics for wet coal charge
PublicationA one-dimensional transient mathematical model describing thermal and flow phenomena during coal coking in an oven chamber was studied in the paper. It also accounts for heat conduction in the ceramic oven wall when assuming a constant temperature at the heating channel side. The model was solved numerically using partly implicit methods for gas flow and heat transfer problems. The histories of temperature, gas evolution and internal...

Nanostructure of the laser-modified transition metal nanocomposites for water splitting
PublicationAlthough hydrogen is considered by many to be the green fuel of the future, nowadays it is primarily produced through steam reforming, which is a process far from ecological. Therefore, emphasis is being put on the development of electrodes capable of the efficient production of hydrogen and oxygen from water. To make the green alternative possible, the solution should be cost-efficient and well processable, generating less waste...
