This paper describes laboratory tests on a Leica AT401laser tracker. As the newer Leica AT402 model also uses the same firmware package, most of the results should also be valid for this device. First, we present the ...

A mathematical model of galvanic corrosion under the conditions of a thin electrolyte film was used to evaluate atmospheric corrosion. Experimentally determined weight loss values were used to validate the modelled results. ...

This paper presents a basic description of measurements on the experimental air turbine located in the laboratories of the Department of Power System Engineering (KKE). The research on this turbine focuses on the flow in ...

This paper presents an approximate solution of the pulsatile flow of a Newtonian fluid in the laminar flow regime in a rigid tube of constant diameter. The model is represented by two ordinary differential equations. The ...

The article discusses the problems of refraction and its impact on levelling at the interface of optical environments. It describes the influence of a vertical refraction and shows the results of investigating the effect ...

Existing procedures for determining the heat loss in heat distribution use balance relations, or rather they are based on the theory of heat and mass transfer. Dimensional analysis enables a new point of view that demonstrated ...

This work deals with the effect of solder alloying with a small amount of lanthanum on joint formation with metallic and ceramic substrate. The Bi-Ag – based solder with 2 wt.% lanthanum addition and Bi solder with 2 wt.% ...

Prior investigations of the load-bearing capacity of bolts during fire have shown differing behaviour between bolts that have been loaded by shear or by tensile loads. A combination of the two loads has not yet been examined ...

This paper analyzes the impact of flexibility of individual supporting elements of independent suspension on its elasto-kinematic characteristics. The toe and camber angle are the geometric parameters of the suspension, ...

In this study, an analytical model of the combination of beam-web shear buckling and bottom-flange buckling at elevated temperatures has been introduced. This analytical model is able to track the force-deflection path ...
