Ontology of the Design Pattern Language for Smart Cities Systems
PublicationThe paper presents the definition of the design pattern language of Smart Cities in the form of an ontology. Since the implementation of a Smart City system is difficult, expensive and closely linked with the problems concerning a given city, the knowledge acquired during a single implementation is extremely valuable. The language we defined supports the management of such knowledge as it allows for the expression of a solution...

Politics and urban artifacts in cities: what are they and how are they interconected?
PublicationThis research, analyses the effect of politics on a city and its image, via their control over the formation or changes on urban artifacts. It analyses the concepts introduced in Aldo Rossi’s architectural monograph, The Architecture of the City, in the chapter titled ‘Politics as Choice’, and his idea that a city’s image is a reflection of its political institutions and the choices people in authority make. Monuments and architecture...

Effect of copper and silver modification of NH2-MIL-125(Ti) on the photoreduction of carbon dioxide to formic acid over this framework under visible-light irradiation
PublicationCu and Ag enhance the photocatalytic activities of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) toward CO2 conversion because of their CO2 adsorption capacities and effects on the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) overpotentials of MOFs. However, to date, targeted introduction of metals into MOFs to achieve visible (Vis)- light-active photocatalysts for CO2 photoconversion has not been realized. Herein, a series of aminefunctionalized...

Modyfikacja struktury i właściwości warstwy wierzchniej stopu tytanu Ti-6Al-4V otrzymywanej metod,a nadtapiania laserowego w warunkach ultraszybkiej krystalizacji
PublicationPokazano wyniki badań wpływu nadtapiania laserowego przy zastosowaniu różnej mocy lasera na grubość i mikrostrukturę warstwy wierzchniej oraz zużycie tribokorozyjne w roztworze Ringera. Wykazano, że nadtapianie, choć powoduje powierzchniowe spękanie, prowadzi do znacznego wzrostu odporności na zużycie tribokorozyjne. Przyczyną jest znaczny wzrost twardości materiału przy równoczesnym zacieraniu pęknięć.

A novel (Ti/Ce)UiO-X MOFs@TiO2 heterojunction for enhanced photocatalytic performance: Boosting via Ce4+/Ce3+ and Ti4+/Ti3+ redox mediators
PublicationTitanium-substituted cerium-oxo-based UiO MOFs with terephthalate linkers modified by various groups (–Br, –NH2, –NO2) or their derivatives (N-heterocyclic or biphenyl groups) were combined with titanium dioxide in a multistep route to obtain a core-shell-like architecture. DFT simulations showed that Ce- and bimetallic Ti/Ce- MOFs exhibited different charge compensation. Extended characterization revealed the formation of heterojunctions between...
