  • Research on the wear evenness of the tool in flat lapping

    Publication

    In this paper, the dimensionless distribution of the material removal stock and the trajectories of abrasive grains cutting in single-sided lapping process are presented. They were numerically simulated based on the tribological model and kinematics equations. It can be observed that the trajectories geometry of single abrasive as well the velocities have a great influence on the final geometrical deviation. During machining, the...

  • Surgical tool tracking by on-line selection of structural correlation filters

    Publication

    In visual tracking of surgical instruments, correlation filtering finds the best candidate with maximal correlation peak. However, most trackers only consider capturing target appearance but not target structure. In this paper we propose surgical instrument tracking approach that integrates prior knowledge related to rotation of both shaft and tool tips. To this end, we employ rigid parts mixtures model of an instrument. The rigidly...

  • Similar concentration of surfactants in rural and urban areas

    Since surfactants are used in various products, they end up in surface and wastewater. Surfactants may therefore impact ecosystems and living organisms. Actually, only few anionic surfactants and some alkylphenols are regulated. There is no comprehensive evaluation of surfactants in the atmosphere, surfaces and waters of areas of increasing anthropic levels. Here, we measured the levels of cationic, anionic and nonionic surfactants...

  • METHODS OF TEACHING SPATIAL AND URBAN PLANNING AT GEODESY AND CARTOGRAPHY

    Publication

    Spatial and town planning is a complex process caused by the interaction between natural and social systems at different temporal and spatial scales. That is the reason, why it is difficult to introduce this subject to students studying disciplines other than spatial or urban planning. The main problem is to define goals, the scope and expected educational effects. The second step is to choose the appropriate teaching and assessment...

  • Coupling transformation of carbon, nitrogen and sulfur in a long-term operated full-scale constructed wetland

    Publication

    - SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT - Year 2021

    The coupling transformation of carbon, nitrogen and sulfur compounds has been studied in lab-scale and pilot-scale constructed wetlands (CWs), but few studies investigated full-scale CW. In this study, we used batch experiments to investigate the potentials of carbon, nitrogen and sulfur transformation in a long-term operated, full-scale horizontal subsurface flow wetland. The sediments collected from the HSFW were incubated for...

  • From structures to landscapes – towards re-conceptualization of the urban condition

    Publication

    - Year 2017

    This paper presents an original approach towards the phenomena of re-naturalization of cities and indicates its possible consequences for the urban design and planning strategies. It focuses on the ongoing shift “from structures to landscapes” in understanding urban conditions. While modern architecture introduced geomet-ric compositions against the background of nature, early modern theories of architects and sociologists started...
