Connected early-career experiences of equality in academia during the pandemic and beyond: Our liminal journey
PublikacjaIn this paper, we draw on our subjective experiences as two female early-career academics during the global COVID-19 pandemic. While we acknowledge that the pandemic had negative implications for many female scholars due to compulsory telework or increased family responsibilities, we also want to shed light on the empowering experiences shaped by collegial support that became an important part of our pandemic story. We build on...

Constrained aerodynamic shape optimization using neural networks and sequential sampling
PublikacjaAerodynamic shape optimization (ASO) involves computational fluid dynamics (CFD)-based search for an optimal aerodynamic shape such as airfoils and wings. Gradient-based optimization (GBO) with adjoints can be used efficiently to solve ASO problems with many design variables, but problems with many constraints can still be challenging. The recently created efficient global optimization algorithm with neural network (NN)-based prediction...

Contra Bellum: Bell's Theorem as a Confusion of Languages
PublikacjaBell's theorem is a conflict of mathematical predictions formulated within an infinite hierarchy of mathematical models. Inequalities formulated at level k ∈ Z are violated by probabilities at level k+1. We are inclined to think that k=0 corresponds to the classical world, while k=1 — to the quantum one. However, as the k=0 inequalities are violated by k=1 probabilities, the same relation holds between k=1 inequalities violated...

Conversion of waste biomass to designed and tailored activated chars with valuable properties for adsorption and electrochemical applications
PublikacjaWaste biomass, a renewable energy source, is inexpensive material that has great potential in sorp-tion and electrochemical application. The selected waste materials (corncobs, coconut shells, wal-nuts, and pistachio husks) allow to close the production cycle and enable material recycling, which are important aspects in the hierarchy of waste management. The proposed methodology for pro-duction and activation of biochars can be...

Core loss resistance impact on sensorless speed control of an induction motor using hybrid adaptive sliding mode observer
PublikacjaInduction motors (IMs) experience power losses when a portion of the input power is converted to heat instead of driving the load. The combined effect of copper losses, core losses, and mechanical losses results in IM power losses. Unfortunately, the core losses in the motor, which have a considerable impact on its energy efficiency, are not taken into account by the generally employed dynamic model in the majority of the studies. Due...

Corrosion degradation impact on mechanical properties of structural steel
PublikacjaRecently, extensive research was conducted regarding the impact of corrosion degradation on the mechanical properties of structural steel. Studies show that at the material level, the microstructure is somewhat unchanged due to corrosion degradation. However, the corrosion causes pits and structural surface irregularities that consequently impact the mean stress-strain response of typical coupon specimens subjected to tensile loading....
