Pedestrian and bicycle bridges as examples of safe collision-free road crossings
PublikacjaPedestrians are most at risk when they are crossing the road. This represents a significant proportion of all fatalities among pedestrians, amounting respectively to 50% in non-built-up areas and 75% in built-up areas. The most frequent reason for this accident is failure to give way. What is most terrible is that 30% of pedestrian accidents occurred at marked pedestrian crossings. Therefore, an important part of pedestrian safety...

Automatic evaluation of sound separation quality
PublikacjaW publikacji tej opisano problem oceny efektywności algorytmów separacji dźwięków muzycznych. Standardowa procedure służąca do takiej oceny nie istnieje. Najbardziej uzasadnionym podejściem wydają się być odsłuchowe testy subiektywne. Niemniej, aby taka ocena była wartościowa, niezbędna jest porządna walidacja statystyczna wyników, co oznacza iż grupa ekspertów powinna być duża oraz właściwości akustyczne pomieszczenia. Ponadto...

The vortex flow caused by sound in a bubbly liquid
PublikacjaGeneration of vorticity in the field of intense sound in a bubbly liquid in the free half-space is considered. The reasons for generation of vorticity are nonlinearity, diffraction, and dispersion. Acoustic streaming differs from that in a Newtonian fluid. Under some conditions, the vortex flow changes its direction. Conclusions concern streaming induced by a harmonic or an impulse Gaussian beam.
