An Enhanced Reduced Basis Method for Wideband Finite Element Method Simulations
PublicationIn this paper, we present a novel strategy for selecting expansion points in the reduced basis method. A single computation of the error estimator is used to select a few expansion points in the multi-parameter space simultaneously. The number of selected points is determined adaptively, based on the accuracy of the current reduced model. The reliability and efficiency of this proposed approach are illustrated by numerical tests...

Ruch w architekturze
PublicationJakkolwiek budynek powszechnie jest uznawany za dzieło statyczne, to jednak kinematyka w architekturze nie jest zjawiskiem nowym. W pracy wykazano, że już od starożytności filozofowie formułowali takie koncepcje przestrzeni, których nie można było opisać bez odwołania się do fenomenu ruchu. Jednocześnie, już w ostatnich dekadach XIX wieku powstawały pierwsze fotograficzne zapisy ruchu. W pracy wykazano, że stały się one inspiracją...

The Double Cognitive Bias of Mistakes: A Measurement Method
PublicationThere is no learning without mistakes. However, making mistakes among knowledge workers is s�ll seeing shameful. There is a clash between posi�ve a�tudes and beliefs regarding the power of gaining new (tacit) knowledge by ac�ng in new contexts and nega�ve a�tudes and beliefs toward accompanying mistakes that are sources of learning. These contradictory a�tudes create a bias that is doubled by the other shared solid belief...

Evaluation of the prediction ability of air pollutants based on the electronic nose responses
PublicationElectronic noses are able to perform on-line measurements of the toxic volatile compounds in air. Due to their low cost and compact size they can be placed in the areas exposed to pollution, outside the laboratory. Those advantages, on the other side, force the need for development of the reliable sensors data analysis procedures. One of the most important issues connected with electronic noses is the lack of stability of the gas...

Effect of the Road Environment on Road Safety in Poland
PublicationRun-off-road accidents tend to be very severe because when a vehicle leaves the road, it will often crash into a solid obstacle (tree, pole, supports, front wall of a culvert, barrier). A statistical analysis of the data shows that Poland's main roadside hazard is trees and the severity of vehicles striking a tree in a run-off-road crash. The risks are particularly high in north-west Poland with many of the roads lined up with...
