Mark Fisher. Dziwaczne i osobliwe. Przekład i posłowie: Andrzej Karalus i Tymon Adamczewski
PublicationDziwaczne i osobliwe to zbiór esejów, w których autor dowodzi, że wiele spośród znanych dzieł kultury można opisać kategoriami dziwaczności lub osobliwości. Pojęcia te, choć bardzo do siebie zbliżone, nie są tożsame. Oba kojarzone są z horrorem lub literaturą sceince fiction, ale wykraczają poza jego ramy. Dotykają tego, co zewnętrzne i nieznane, niepokojące, ale niekoniecznie przerażające. Kategorie dziwaczności i osobliwości...

Contr-rotating eccentric-mass rotors used as exciters of sinusoidal forces applied to elastically supported bodies
PublicationThe work focuses on aspects of multibody dynamics. Investigated object is a mass driven by rotations of an inertial shaker. Resulting vibrational set consists of two counter-rotating identically-unbalanced rotors. Since the mass centres of the rotors do not coincide with the axes of their rotations, significant centrifugal forces arise during rotations. As both rotors are identically unbalanced, the inter-axial force components...
