  • Relicts of the 16th-century cellar by the St Mary's Church in Gdansk / Relikty piwnicy z XVI w. przy kościele Wniebowzięcia NMP w Gdańsku

    Publikacja

    - Architectus - Rok 2018

    Saint Mary’s church in Gdańsk, one of the largest brick Gothic temples in the World, has got no external chapels – except the House of Councils. Its architectural form, however, is not the result of implementation of one project, but realization of a few transforming concepts. The discovery of the relicts of the 16 th ­century cellars, located in the corner of the transept and the northern aisle, gives an idea of the process...

  • Analysis of Failures of High Speed Shaft Bearing System in a Wind Turbine

    Publikacja

    During the operation of wind turbines with gearbox of traditional configuration, consisting of one planetary stage and two helical stages high failure rate of high speed shaft bearings is observed. Such a high failures frequency is not reflected in the results of standard calculations of bearing durability. Most probably it can be attributed to atypical failure mechanism. The authors studied problems in 1.5 MW wind turbines of...

  • Robust estimation of deformation from observation differences for free control networks

    Publikacja

    - JOURNAL OF GEODESY - Rok 2014

    Deformation measurements have a repeatable nature. This means that deformation measurements are performed often with the same equipment, methods, geometric conditions and in a similar environment in epochs 1 and 2 (e.g., a fully automated, continuous control measurements). It is, therefore, reasonable to assume that the results of deformation measurements can be distorted by both random errors and by some non-random errors, which...

  • A bound on the number of middle-stage crossbars in f-cast rearrangeable Clos networks

    Publikacja

    - Rok 2015

    In 2006 Chen and Hwang gave a necessary and sufficient condition under which a three-stage Clos network is rearrangeable for broadcast connections. Assuming that only crossbars of the first stage have no fan-out property, we give similar conditions for f-cast Clos networks, where f is an arbitrary but fixed invariant of the network. Such assumptions are valid for some practical switching systems, e.g. high-speed crossconnects....

  • Some aspects of noise generated by a small ship in the shallow sea

    Most bacteria encode a large repertoire of RNA-based regulatory mechanisms. Recent discoveries have revealed that the expression of many genes is controlled by a plethora of base-pairing noncoding small regulatory RNAs (sRNAs), regulatory RNA-binding proteins and RNA-degrading enzymes. Some of these RNA-based regulated processes respond to stress conditions and are involved in the maintenance of cellular homeostasis. They achieve...
