Exploring the influence of personal factors on physiological responses to mental imagery in sport
PublicationImagery is a well-known technique in mental training which improves performance efficiency and influences physiological arousal. One of the biomarkers indicating the amount of physiological arousal is skin conductance level (SCL). The aim of our study is to understand how individual differences in personality (e.g. neuroticism), general imagery and situational sport anxiety are linked to arousal measuring with SCL in situational...

Influence of the notch rounding radius on estimating the elastic notch stress concentration factor in a laser welded tee joint
PublicationIn recent years an increased interest of industry in sandwich-type metal structures can be observed. These structures consist of thin plates of 2.5 mm in thickness separated by stiffeners of different shapes and forms. Welds joining the plates and stiffeners are made on the outer side of the plates using laser welding technique. A locally focused source of heat causes the plate to melt creating a very narrow and elongated joint....

Improved model of isothermal and incompressible fluid flow in pipelines versus the Darcy–Weisbach equation and the issue of friction factor
PublicationIn this article, we consider the modelling of stationary incompressible and isothermal one-dimensional fluid flow through a long pipeline. The approximation of the average pressure in the developed model by the arithmetic mean of inlet and outlet pressures leads to the known empirical Darcy–Weisbach equation. Most importantly, we also present another improved approach that is more accurate because the average pressure is estimated...

Scalar- and vector-source wave equations
PublicationW analizie zjawisk akustyki liniowej i obliczeniach pola, powszechnie stosowane są równania falowe skalarne dotyczące ciśnienia akustycznego lub potencjału prędkości, natomiast rzadko są choćby tylko wspominane równania wektorowe operujące prędkością cząstek. Jest to przejaw asymetrii w traktowaniu skalarnych i wektorowych wielkości akustycznych. Artykuł przypomina dwa zestawy dualnych równań falowych, jednorodnych i niejednorodnych,...

Hydraulic and technological consequences of reactor asymmetry
PublicationKażdy reaktor, choć projektowany jako obiekt o regularnych kształtach, może utracić symetrię - bądź wskutek błędów wykonawczych, bądź wskutek odkształceń w trakcie eksploatacji. Fakt ten wpływa na pole prędkości przepływającej cieczy i może mieć znaczące skutki technologiczne. W pracy omówiono metodę określania tych konsekwencji i zilustrowano ją przykładami.

Constructive Controllability for Incompressible Vector Fields
PublicationWe give a constructive proof of a global controllability result for an autonomous system of ODEs guided by bounded locally Lipschitz and divergence free (i.e. incompressible) vector field, when the phase space is the whole Euclidean space and the vector field satisfies so-called vanishing mean drift condition. For the case when the ODE is defined over some smooth compact connected Riemannian manifold, we significantly strengthen...

Shading, Dusting and Incorrect Positioning of Photovoltaic Modules as Important Factors in Performance Reduction
PublicationThe amount of solar radiation reaching the front cover of a photovoltaic module is crucial for its performance. A number of factors must be taken into account at the design stage of the solar installation, which will ensure maximum utilization of the potential arising from the location. During the operation of a photovoltaic installation, it is necessary to limit the shading of the modules caused by both dust and shadowing by trees...

Experiments and calibration of a bond-slip relation and efficiency factors for textile reinforcement in concrete
PublicationTextile reinforcement yarns consist of many filaments, which can slip relative each other. At modelling of the global structural behaviour, interfilament slip in the yarns, and slip between the yarns and the concrete can be considered by efficiency factors for the stiffness and strength of the yarns, and by applying a bond-slip relation between yarns and concrete. In this work, an effective and robust method for calibration of...

Accurate rolling resistance Rolling resistance measurements can be influenced by a number of factors
PublicationTire rolling resistance is one of the most difficult-to-measure parameters of the tire/ pavement interface, especially if road measurements are required. First of all, it is necessary to measure a fairly small force in the system that is heavily loaded by other forces and subjected to many adverse effects causing measurement errors. The second problem is related to the fact that tire rolling resistance depends on many factors,...
