Swapping Space for Time: An Alternative to Time-Domain Interferometry
PublicationYoung's double-slit experiment [1] requires two waves produced simultaneously at two different points in space. In quantum mechanics the waves correspond to a single quantum object, even as complex as a big molecule. An interference is present as long as one cannot tell for sure which slit is chosen by the object. The more we know about the path, the worse the interference. In the paper we show that quantum mechanics allows for...

Geometry optimization of steroid sulfatase inhibitors - the influence on the free binding energy with STS
PublicationIn the paper we review the application of two techniques (molecular mechanics and quantum mechanics) to study the influence of geometry optimization of the steroid sulfatase inhibitors on the values of descriptors coded their chemical structure and their free binding energy with the STS protein. We selected 22 STS-inhibitors and compared their structures optimized with MM+, PM7 and DFT B3LYP/6–31++G* approaches considering separately...

Noise and Electro-Ultrasonic Spectroscopy of Conducting PolymerThick Films
PublicationThick conducting films based on conducting polymer are characterized by DC conductivity and noise in temperature range 10 to 300 K. Conducting polymers could be used e.g. for the top electrode (cathode) in the solid tantalum or niobium capacitors. On the conducting polymer layer the top layer of carbon/graphite and/or silver polymer based pastes is applied in the capacitor technology. Our samples structure consists of conducting...

A Formal Approach to Model the Expansion of Natural Events: The Case of Infectious Diseases
PublicationA formal approach to modeling the expansion of natural events is presented in this paper. Since the mathematical, statistical or computational methods used are not relevant for development, a modular framework is carried out that guides from the external observation down to the innermost level of the variables that have to appear in the future mathematical-computational formalization. As an example we analyze the expansion of Covid-19....

Zastosowanie komputerów w dziedzinie wyszukiwania strategii optymalnych w grach logicznych
PublicationProblem jaki stanowi wyszukiwanie strategii optymalnej w grach logicznych jest bardzo złożony. Można go podzielić na następujące podproblemy: obliczeniowy, pamięciowy oraz operacji wejścia/wyjścia. Jednak rosnąca z roku na rok siła obliczeniowa komputerów, ilość pamięci oraz prędkość transferu danych pomiędzy podzespołami zarówno lokalnymi jak i rozproszonymi, a także wzrost skuteczności wykorzystywanych technik algorytmicznych...

Nonlocal Models of Plates and Shells with Applications in Micro- and Nanomechanics
PublicationNowadays, the use of small-scale structures in micro/nanomachines has become more and more widespread. The most important applications of such small-sized parts are in micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) as well as nano-electro-mechanical systems (NEMS) as actuators, sensors, energy harvesters. For example, nanosensors are nanoscale devices that measure physical quantities and convert these to signals that can be detected and...

Analiza drgań przewodów jezdnych sieci trakcyjnej w aspekcie oceny jej stanu technicznego
PublicationW pracy przedstawiono możliwości wykorzystania analizy drgań przewodów jezdnych sieci trakcyjnej do oceny jej stanu technicznego. Zaprezentowano wyniki badań laboratoryjnych, w których rejestrowano drgania odcinka przewodu jezdnego o zróżnicowanym stopniu zużycia i przy różnych warunkach jego zawieszenia. Na bazie przeprowadzonych analiz w dziedzinie czasu i częstotliwości, wskazano zależności między stanem sieci a wybranymi parametrami...

Analysis of Measurement Errors in Rail Vehicles’ Pantograph Inspection System
PublicationThe paper presents an approach to evaluation of height measurement errors in laser scanning inspection system. The system, consisting of a laser line generator and a specialized camera, is dedicated to diagnosing carbon contact strips of railway vehicles’ pantographs. While height measurement resolution is easily computable based on system parameters, determining the measurement error is troublesome due to numerous impacts. As...

Domain Reduction in Hybrid Technique for Electromagnetic Wave Scattering Problems
PublicationThis paper proposes a combination of the field matching technique, finite element method and generalized impedance matrix, the main idea of which is to reduce the computational domain by surrounding a scatterer with the smallest convex shape and applying the field matching technique. This approach can be applied for arbitrary shaped scatterers and types of materials and allows for the reduction of the computational domain. In order...

Factors Affecting the Rheological Properties of Foods
PublicationIn this chapter, engineering aspects concerning real body mechanics and the impact of respective food ingredients on said properties are presented together. Food is a complex matrix and each of macro and micro ingredients plays its role in the formation of rheologic properties, and minor changes in the basic ingredient structure may affect the change of these properties significantly. Basic analytic techniques are presented for...
