In this article we solve the non-standard situation that arose after publishing our paper "Crustal deformations in the epicentral area of the West Bohemia 2008 earthquake swarm in central Europe" (Schenk et al., 2012). Horálek and Fischer wrote a statement regarding our publication, sent it to specialists interested in research in the West Bohemia swarm area, and questioned the reliability of the seismic data used in our work. Since the statement regarding the reliability of our work was not directly sent to us we are using this journal to return to professional discussion regarding our results. In this paper we review scientific arguments made in their statement and provide review of various studies on West Bohemia tectonics and related seismicity., Vladimír Schenk and Zdeňka Schenková., and Obsahuje bibliografii
For low-alloyed cast ferritic steel simultaneous effect of temperature and notch root radius on fracture toughness has been investigated. Due to fact that fracture tests were performed on notched specimens (cylindrical tensile specimens with circumferential notch having there notch root radii), the concept of Notch Fracture Mechanics was applied. Volumetric fracture criterion with two parameters, effective stress and effective distance, was developed. The goal of the work was to quantify the influence of notch radius on transition temperature and notch fracture toughness, and, in addition, to present jointly the role of both these parameters in fracture behaviour.
In the case of the studied cast steel with a low yield stress (375 MPa), effective distance is 3 to 4 times longer than the Creager's effective distance (half of notch radius). The transition region and temperatures are shifted to higher values when notch radius decreases. At temperature higher than a temperature called plateau temperature Tp dactile filure appears. The Tp temperature is sensitive to nothe radius being affected by stress triaxiality. It is possible to define a notch sensitivity compensated temperature T* = √ρ/ρc. In the transition regime, critical notch stress intensity factor varies linearly with T*. and Obsahuje seznam literatury
Within the frame of the mass discretisation method has been designed the mathematical - physical model of the pseudoplanetary system of seven degrees of freedom for the analysis of the influence of the number of satellites and for free or elastic mounting of the sun wheel as a next phase of the solution of general differential system with branched - split power flow.
Previous observation demonstrated that measured nucleolar and nuclear diameters and the resulting calculated ratio might facilitate estimation of the approximate size of the nuclear region occupied by the nucleolar bodies. The size of nuclear regions occupied by nucleolar bodies decreased during the differentiation and maturation of leukaemic lymphocytes, but was constant for each differentiation or maturation stage. The present study was
unde-taken to provide more information on the approximate size of the nuclear regions occupied by nucleolar bodies in leukaemic granulocytic progenitors. Myeloblasts of established Kasumi 1 and K 562 cell lineages originating from human myeloid leukaemias were convenient models for such study because they represented only one and early differentiation stage of granulocytic progenitors. According to the results, the maximal and mean nucleolar body : maximal and mean nuclear diameter ratios in myeloblasts without heavy nuclear alterations were stable and not markedly influenced by the anti-leukaemic treatment or aging. Thus, the roughly estimated size of nuclear regions occupied by nucleolar bodies in these cells appeared to be similar and stable regardless of aging or antileukaemic treatment. In contrast, the antileukaemic treatment or aging in such myeloblasts induced marked reduction of the nucleolar biosynthetic activity reflected by the decreased number of nucleolar fibrillar centres. and Corresponding author: Karel Smetana
A new application of the parametric anti-resonance is discussed. This phenomenon can be used not only for suppressing self-excited vibration or to reduce the externally excited vibration but also to suppressing self-excited vibration or to reduce the externally excited vibration but also to suppress the parametric resonance when certain conditions are met. Another aim is to stimulate further investigations and the practical applications. and Obsahuje seznam literatury
The aim of this contribution is to present a basic survey of publications dealing with the means of vibration suppression in several kinds of self-excitation. The attention is given to passive and active means using parametric excitation. A special attention is given to the latter and the necessary steps for answering important questions are formulated to initiate further investigation and especially application to real systems. and Obsahuje seznam literatury
