THE INFLUENCE OF POLYMER STRIPS IN REDUCTION OF A STEEL GRANDSTAND VIBRATIONS
PublicationGrandstands are types of structures commonly used during sport events or music concerts. Dynamic loads generated by crowd movement may have significant influence on human perception as well as may lead to the destruction of a structure. Lighter and more slender structural steel members are more easily excitable by spectators. If the synchronized movement is tuned with the natural frequency of the affected part of the structure,...

Design centering of compact microwave components using response features and trust regions
PublicationFabrication tolerances, as well as uncertainties of other kinds, e.g., concerning material parameters or operating conditions, are detrimental to the performance of microwave circuits. Mitigating their impact requires accounting for possible parameter deviations already at the design stage. This involves optimization of appropriately defined statistical figures of merit such as yield. Alt-hough important, robust (or tolerance-aware)...

Insights into the microbial community of treated wastewater, its year-round variability and impact on the receiver, using cultivation, microscopy and amplicon-based methods
PublicationApart from chemical constituents, wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) effluents also release microorganisms that can be important to the receiving water bodies either from a sanitary point of view, or taking to the account the biogeochemical potential of the recipients. However, little is known about the treated wastewater microbial community, its composition, seasonal changes, functions and fate in the waters of the receiver. Thus,...

Which transport policies increase physical activity of the whole of society? A systematic review
PublicationPurpose: There is strong evidence of the links between car-dependence and the physical inactivity pandemic. Physical inactivity accounts for 6–10% of major non-communicable diseases. Research consistently shows that unlike passive transport, active transport is associated with higher total daily physical activity (PA). While there are public policies that support PA in transport and, as a result, overall PA levels, the specific...

Towards Hybrid Urban Mobility: Kick Scooter as a Means of Individual Transport in the City
PublicationThe characteristic feature of a contemporary city is its inconvenience and oppressiveness caused by the hitherto dominant paradigm of urban planning based on car mobility. As a result, the inhabitants have to cope with air pollution, noise, spatial barriers, sedentary lifestyle and other factors which worsen their health and quality of life. Ecological and physically activating urban mobility thus plays an increasingly important...

A novel concept of negative CO2 emission power plant for utilization of sewage sludge
PublicationCarbon Capture and Storage (CSS) technology is considered an important “bridge technology”, allowing effective abatement of CO2 emissions for power units using fossil fuels. However, if biomass is used in a power plant, equipped with CCS system, negative CO2 emissions can be achieved. In practice, wide development of such technologies would enable not only reduction of CO2 emissions, but also reversal of the harm done so far. In...

Improving methods to calculate the loss of ecosystem services provided by urban trees using LiDAR and aerial orthophotos
PublicationIn this paper we propose a methodology for combining remotely sensed data with field measurements to assess selected tree parameters (diameter at breast height (DBH) and tree species) required by the i-Tree Eco model to estimate ecosystem services (ES) provided by urban trees. We determined values of ES provided by trees in 2017 in Racibórz (a city in South Poland) and estimated the loss of ES from January 1, 2017 to March 5, 2017,...

The effects of urban vehicle traffic on heavy metal contamination in road sweeping waste and bottom sediments of retention tanks
PublicationDiffuse pollution formed during a surface runoff on paved surfaces is a source of heavy metals (HMs) of various origin. This research study indicates the connection between bottom sediments of retention tanks located on urban streams and road sweeping wastes (RSW) that migrate during surface runoff to the stormwater drainage systems with discharge to the retention tanks. Moreover, we test the primary sources of HMs in RSW by analysing...

Coarse-grained simulation - an efficient approach for studying motions of large proteins
PublicationOne of the most important challenges in performing Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations of large protein complexes is to accommodate the model accuracy and the simulation timescale. Hitherto, for the most relevant dynamics of protein aggregates in an explicit aqueous environment, the timescale reachable for the all-atoms simulations is of hundreds of nanoseconds. This range is four to six orders of magnitude smaller than processes...

Action Research - przygotowanie sądu do zmiany poprzez uczenie się - współpraca praktyków i badaczy
PublicationW praktyce zarządzanie sądem na ogół jest oddalone od teorii zarządzania. Prezesi sądów rzadko zwracają się do naukowców z prośbą o rozwiązanie ich problemów w zarządzaniu. W sądach brakuje nie tylko stałych form współpracy z naukowcami zajmującymi się zarządzaniem, ale także z innymi interesariuszami. Jedyną formą komunikacji, i to z ograniczoną liczbą interesariuszy, są formalne środki wyznaczone przez procedurę cywilną lub karną....

Szacowanie miar bezpieczeństwa ruchu drogowego dla potrzeb oceny efektywności inwestycji drogowych
PublicationKoszty wypadków drogowych to jeden z elementów składowych kosztów, które stanowią podstawę do analiz efektywności ekonomicznej inwestycji drogowych. Obok kosztów eksploatacji pojazdów, czasu podróży i czasu pracy oraz kosztów emisji spalin i hałasu, koszty wypadków drogowych decydują o tym czy dana inwestycja będzie opłacalna z punktu widzenia efektywności ekonomicznej. Prawidłowe wyliczenie kosztów wypadków dla planowanych inwestycji...

Quantum-classical calculations of the nanomechanical properties of metals
PublicationTradycyjnie symulacje komputerowe układów w skali atomowej prowadzone są przy użyciu klasycznej metody dynamiki molekularnej (MD) bądź kwantowych metod ab initio. Główną wadą ujęcia klasycznego jest jego empiryczna natura, a co za tym idzie - niewielka przenośność, jego prostota natomiast pozwala na przeprowadzanie symulacji układów zawierających miliony atomów. W wyniku zastosowania metod kwantowych otrzymuje się bardziej wiarygodne...
