Simulation of Free Airfoil Vibrations in Incompressible Viscous Flow — Comparison of FEM and FVM
(České vysoké učení technické v PrazeCzech Technical University in Prague, 2012)This paper deals with a numerical solution of the interaction of two-dimensional (2-D) incompressible viscous flow and a vibrating profile NACA 0012 with large amplitudes. The laminar flow is described by the Navier-Stokes ... -
Strontium As a Structure Modifier for Non-binary Al–Si Alloy
(České vysoké učení technické v PrazeCzech Technical University in Prague, 2012)This paper presents a study of the influence on the structure of AlSi10Mg alloy when 400 ppm of strontium is added. Not only changes in the morphology of eutectic silicon, but in particular changes in the morphology of the ... -
Structural Variability of 3C 111 on Parsec Scales
(České vysoké učení technické v PrazeCzech Technical University in Prague, 2012)We discuss the parsec-scale structural variability of the extragalactic jet 3C111 related to a major radio flux density outburst in 2007. The data analyzed were taken within the scope of the MOJAVE, UMRAO, and F-GAMMA ... -
Synthesis of Mechanisms by Methods of Nonlinear Dynamics
(České vysoké učení technické v PrazeCzech Technical University in Prague, 2012)This paper deals with a new method for parametric kinematic synthesis of mechanisms. The traditional synthesis procedure based on collocation, correction and optimization suffers from the local minima of objective functions, ... -
Teaching Management at Technical Universities Business Reality in the Academic Environment
(České vysoké učení technické v PrazeCzech Technical University in Prague, 2012)Students of technical universities often do not understand why their studies should include learning management skills (in addition to the study of economics). However, not only the experience of graduates but also the ... -
The Asymptotic Properties of Turbulent Solutions to the Navier-Stokes Equations
(České vysoké učení technické v PrazeCzech Technical University in Prague, 2012)In this paper we study the large time behavior of solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations. We present a brief survey of results concerning energy decay, and discuss a related phenomenon of the large time energy concentration ... -
The Effect of Temperature on the Gasification Process
(České vysoké učení technické v PrazeCzech Technical University in Prague, 2012)Gasification is a technology that uses fuel to produce power and heat.
