Wear measurements of self lubricating bearing materials in small oscillatory movement
PublicationRosnące wymagania ekologiczne powodują wzrost tendencji wymiany klasycznych materiałów łożyskowych, wymagających dodatkowego czynnika smarnego, na materiały nie wymagające smarowania. Zamianie takiej może towarzyszyć obniżenie trwałości zmodernizowanego łożyska. Ten niekorzystny efekt nierzadko obserwuje się w węzłach łożyskowych kierownic turbin wodnych. Autorzy podjęli próbę wyjaśnienia zjawisk występujących w tego typu łożyskach....

Visual Detection of People Movement Rules Violation in Crowded Indoor Scenes
PublicationThe paper presents a camera-independent framework for detecting violations of two typical people movement rules that are in force in many public transit terminals: moving in the wrong direction or across designated lanes. Low-level image processing is based on object detection with Gaussian Mixture Models and employs Kalman filters with conflict resolving extensions for the object tracking. In order to allow an effective event...

THE INFLUENCE OF WATER-LAND RELATIONS ON THE LANDSCAPE AND ARCHITECTURE OF THE VISTULA DELTA (POLAND)
PublicationThe Vistula Delta is unique region of water domination. In this part of Europe, historic rural assumptions have been developing since the 12th century. Practically, it can be said that most of the systems were related to the coexistence of the human and the water element. Relations of water and land, developed specific types of villages such as a water-based village. Water landscape; polders, canals, dikes and rivers, hydro-technical...

Landscape Rurality: New Challenge for The Sustainable Development of Rural Areas in Poland
PublicationThe standard of country living was a matter of Polish elites’ concern from the eighteenth century. In different historical conditions different concepts of the rural renewal were formed. Today in rural areas of Poland some spatial processes that threaten the quality of life occur. The disadvantageous changes are the result of national or local governments spatial policy and they are an inhabitants’ response to it. The political...

Assessment of Alterations in Settlement Patterns of Agricultural Landscape in the Example of Kashubia in Poland
PublicationTraditional agricultural landscapes are heavily exposed to change due to their relatively low agricultural productivity. However, they represent cultural values of great importance in maintaining the resilience of the environment and society. Although their cultural potential is important for sustainable development, it is still insufficiently recognized. The article fills this gap by examining old farmstead buildings as a distinguishing...
