Usuwanie struwitu z rurociągów w oczyszczalni ścieków komunalnych = Struvite removal from pipelines in municipal wastewater treatment plant
PublicationStruwit MgNH4PO4 .6H2O jest minerałem występującym w przyrodzie. Minerał ten może powstawać również w organizmie człowieka oraz zwierząt jako kamień nerkowy. W wielu oczyszczalniach ścieków struwit wytrąca się m.in. podczas odprowadzania cieczy nadosadowej z komór fermentacyjnych. Powoduje to szybkie zmniejszanie się przekroju czynnego rurociągów i konieczność ich wymiany lub usuwania powstałego osadu. Ponadto, powstający osad...

Nonlinear planar modeling of massive taut strings travelled by a force-driven point-mass
PublicationThe planar response of horizontal massive taut strings, travelled by a heavy point-mass, either driven by an assigned force, or moving with an assigned law, is studied. A kinematically exact model is derived for the free boundary problem via a variational approach, accounting for the singularity in the slope of the deflected string. Reactive forces exchanged between the point-mass and the string are taken into account via Lagrange...
