Design and material selection for a patient transport device in field hospitals
PublikacjaACKGROUND: A major cause of patient and hospital worker injuries occurs transferring patients between two planes. The main aim of this paper was to propose a design of patient’s lift and transfer apparatus for use in field hospitals. The assumption was to design lightweight, durable and ergonomic device using innovative material. The authors concentrated on partial elimination of manual lifting in order to device could work both...

Functional fluorine-doped tin oxide coating for opto-electrochemical label-free biosensors
PublikacjaSensors operating in multiple domains, such as optical and electrochemical, offer properties making biosensing more effective than those working in a single domain. To combine such domains in one sensing device, materials offering a certain set of properties are required. Fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) thin film is discussed in this work as functional optically for guiding lossy modes and simultaneously electrochemically, i.e....

An adaptive-noise Augmented Kalman Filter approach for input-state estimation in structural dynamics
PublikacjaThe establishment of a Digital Twin of an operating engineered system can increase the potency of Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) tools, which are then bestowed with enhanced predictive capabilities. This is particularly relevant for wind energy infrastructures, where the definition of remaining useful life is a main driver for assessing the efficacy of these systems. In order to ensure a proper representation of the physical...

Possibility of Using Tea Fungus for Fermentation of Beetroot and Carrot Pomace Beverages
PublikacjaFermented beverages obtained from plant-based raw materials are becoming more popular due to their beneficial effects on human health. These include kombucha beverages, which are obtained by fermenting tea brew using the so-called tea fungus, which includes acetic acid bacteria and osmophilic yeast. A consortium of these microorganisms could also be used to prepare functional fermented beverages obtained from extracts of vegetable...

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...

Doraźna nośność słupów o przekroju kołowym z rur FRP wypełnionych betonem Badania, teoria, obliczanie
PublikacjaPraca ma charakter monografii opisującej aktualny stan wiedzy z zakresu badań, teorii i projektowania słupów CFFT (concrete-filled fiber-reinforced polymer tube). Celem prowadzonych przez autora prac studialnych i badań własnych, w tym eksperymentalnych, jest szczegółowa analiza doraźnej nośności i zachowania się słupów CFFT poddanych ściskaniu osiowemu i mimośrodowemu. W pierwszym rozdziale wyjaśniono motywację autora do podjęcia...
