Composite as a Material of the Future in the Era of Green Deal Implementation Strategies
PublikacjaComposite materials have become synonymous with modernity, desired in nearly every aspect of our daily lives, from simple everyday objects to sanitary facilities, pipelines, the construction of modern sewer networks, their renovation, water supply, and storage reservoirs, to complex structures—automotive, planes, and space science. Composites have seen a considerable rise in attention owing to their characteristics, durability,...

Guided waves for nondestructive diagnostics of embedded waveguides
PublikacjaThe thesis concentrates on comprehensive theoretical, numerical and experimental analysis of guided wave propagation in bars embedded in concrete or mortar. The investigations are focused on a particular type of objects representing a laboratory model of a ground anchor. Complex description of wave propagation phenomena in partially embedded bars is given and its application in...

Generating actionable evidence from free-text feedback to improve maternity and acute hospital experiences: A computational text analytics & predictive modelling approach
PublikacjaBackground Patient experience surveys are a key source of evidence for supporting decision-making and quality improvement in healthcare services. These surveys contain two main types of questions: closed and open-ended, asking about patients’ care experiences. Apart from the knowledge obtained from analysing closed-ended questions, invaluable insights can be gleaned from free-text data. Advanced analytics techniques are increasingly...

Experimental study on earthquake-induced pounding between steel structures
PublikacjaPounding between adjacent structures has been repeatedly observed during major earthquakes. The phenomenon may cause some local damage at the points of interactions, it may also lead to substantial destruction, permanent deformations or total collapse of colliding structures. The effects of earthquake-induced structural pounding have been studied for more than three decades now. However, most of the studies concerned masonry as...

Stan graniczny nośności dźwigara żelbetowego mostu na zginanie według norm PN-EN 1992-2 oraz PN-S-10042:1991
PublikacjaPraca włącza się w bogaty w ostatnich latach w krajowym piśmiennictwie nurt porównań dwóch generacji norm projektowania mostów z betonu: polskiej - wycofanej, aczkolwiek powszechnie stosowanej oraz europejskiej – wciąż jeszcze wdrażanej do praktyki projektowej. Nowością w stosunku do dotychczasowych publikacji polskich jest szersze ujęcie różnic pomiędzy obydwiema generacjami norm. Poza rozpatrywanymi przez wielu autorów różnicami...

Cold recycled mixtures for binder courses - laboratory evaluation of mechanical properties
PublikacjaCold recycled mixtures composed with cement and bituminous emulsion are nowadays commonly used material for base layer. Typical pavement with cold recycled mixtures usually consists of two asphalt courses (wearing and binding course) constructed over cold recycled base. Therefore the next step in cold recycling is possibility of design of binding courses with recycled materials, but with potential to obtain high quality mixtures...

Smart Materials in Architecture: Useful Tools with Practical Applications or Fascinating Inventions for Experimental Design?
PublikacjaFor at least several decades smart or so-called intelligent materials, being the result of great advancements in material engineering, appear in architecture in different applications. Most of them are called "smart" because of their inherent properties: a real-time response to environmental stimuli. There are also those considered to be "smart" due to smart design: their original structure or the composition of their materials...

ASSESSMENT OF CLIFF STABILITY AFTER THE DEMOLITION OF THE ENGINEERING FACILITIES
PublikacjaAs a part of an experiment, cliff in Gdynia Redlowo (southern coast of Baltic Sea, Gdansk Bay) was measured using terrestrial laser scanner. The main reason for taking up the subject of the Orlowo Cliff’s stability was a decision about controlled removal one of the war fortification elements. The main purpose of that analysis was to specify suitability of laser scanning in determination of slope’s stability after a violent event....

Regenarative tourism – between theory and practice
PublikacjaPurpose: The aim of this article is to present a shift in thinking in terms of implementing the systems and practices needed to transition to a regenerative approach in tourism. The article aims to provide concrete ways to change thinking and move towards a regenerative paradigm in the tourism industry. Design/methodology/approach: This viewpoint paper defines regenerative tourism and explores its principles and the possibilities...

Application and modelling of Shape-Memory Alloys for structural vibration control: State-of-the-art review
PublikacjaOne of the most essential components of structural design for civil engineers is to build a system that is resistant to environmental conditions such as harsh chemical environments, and catastrophic disasters like earthquakes and hurricanes. Under these circumstances and disturbances, conventional building materials such as steel and concrete may demonstrate inadequate performance in the form of corrosion, deterioration, oxidizing,...

Modelling of Asphalt Mixes under Long Time Creep at Low Temperatures
PublikacjaProper description of asphalt mixtures behavior under long time load is one of the most important factors in analyses of strain and stress relations at low temperatures both from traffic and environmental loads. For example different models of thermal stress accumulation require different approaches of description of asphalt concrete. But in all cases it is required to describe its behavior under long time loading, which in some...

Load Testing of GFRP Composite U-Shape Footbridge
PublikacjaThe paper presents the scope of load tests carried out on an innovative shell composite footbridge. The tested footbridge was manufactured in one production cycle and has no components made from materials other than GFRP laminates and PET foam. The load tests, performed on a 14-m long structure, were the final stage of a research program in the Fobridge project carried out in cooperation with: Gdańsk University of Technology (leader),...

Poroelastic Road Surfaces - State of The Art
PublikacjaPoroelastic Road Surfaces (PERS) constitute a specific group of pavements containing a great amount of crumbled rubber. In most cases rubber aggregate constitutes about 20% of the mixture (by weight) and a polyurethane resin is used as a binder. As a result, PERS is characterized by a much higher elasticity than asphalt and a high porosity typical for drainage pavements. Due to this, tire/road noise is greatly reduced and on top...

Potentials of Water Usage in urban Neighbourhood Structures
PublikacjaThis paper will treat about water influence and possibility of its usage in the urban neighborhood structures (e.g. districts, real estate properties, town parts) in the context of actual regional environmental problems and according to directories determined by European targets. It is not rare yet in the basic stage of urban design that water is treated as a threat, not a chance. In result planned structures are often built,...

Mechanics of Micro- and Nano-Size Materials and Structures
PublikacjaNanotechnology knowledge is always looking to expand its boundaries to achieve the mostsignificant benefit to human life and meet the growing needs of today. In this case, we can refer tomicro- and nanosensors in micro/nano-electromechanical systems (MEMS/NEMS). These electricaldevices can detect minimal physical stimuli up to one nanometer in size. Today, micro/nano-sensordevices are widely used in the...

BARWIENIE BETONU - PRAKTYCZNE WSKAZÓWKI cz 2
PublikacjaProdukcja barwionych elementów wibroprasowanych w niewielkim stopniu różni się od wykonawstwa zwykłych, szarych elementów betonowych. Przy stosowaniu pigmentu w postaci płynu należy uwzględnić dodatkową ilość wody wprowadzaną do mieszanki betonowej (40 ÷ 60 % objętości pigmentu płynnego). Płynna postać pigmentu umożliwia bezpyłowe i wygodniejsze dozowanie. Zdarza się jednak, że wytrąca się w nich osad, gdy zawiesina pozostaje...
