Parki tematyczne w rozwoju lokalnym miasteczek i wsi
PublikacjaObecnie niemal każde polskie miasto i wieś ma na celu znalezienie dobrego pomysłu na swój rozwój społeczno-gospodarczy. Najczęściej jest nim założenie parku tematycznego. Dobrze się dzieje, gdy takie przedsięwzięcie wspiera lokalne tradycje, zwyczaje i walory kulturowe miasta czy wsi; gdy promowane są miejscowe produkty i żywność. Niestety, nie zawsze tak jest. Niektóre miasta i gminy chętniej przyjmują zupełnie inną politykę...

Influence of separation gap on the response of colliding models of steel structures under seismic and paraseismic excitations
PublikacjaAs a result of high urbanization, the need to erect closely-spaced buildings forces designers to consider collisions between structures taking place during ground motions. Experimental and numerical studies have confirmed that such collisions (often referred to as structural pounding) may cause serious damage to the structural elements and even lead to total collapse of colliding structures. The main reason of earthquake-induced...
