The astrogeodetic method of detailed geoid determination need astronomical observations of longitude and latitude. Together with GPS observations it may be used to vertical deflections determination. In the article the portable system for automatic determination of astrogeodetic vertical deflection components developed at AGH University of Science and Technology is described. The design, main error sources, and preliminary results of the test measurements are presented., Jacek Kudrys., and Obsahuje bibliografii
The known vertical deflection values can be utilised to increase geoid’s accuracy. One of the methods of vertical deflection components (ξ, η) determination is to compare astronomic and geodetic coordinates. Presently it is easy possible to obtain geodetic coordinates with high accuracy from GPS observation. In the article the methods of astronomical CCD observation with aid of two different optical systems are discussed. Project realisation is in preliminary stage and there are no results available yet., Jacek Kudrys., and Obsahuje bibliografické odkazy
An occurrence of tetra-coordinated aluminum in altered coal and low temperature coal ashes was investigated. As altered coal a sample from the Lazy mine (Upper Silesian Coal Basin) was tested, further, low-temperature ashes from different coals were prepared and measured. During preparation the selected coal samples were intensively air-oxidized; 27Al MAS NMR spectra of obtained ashes were then acquired and compared against those for initial coals. A reference wood ash and Al standards were used for identification of Al-forms. It was found that chemical shift at 4 ppm with coals corresponds to that for triaquo-hydroxo-diphenoxido-aluminum(III) complex (THDA), further, the shift at 72 ppm with altered coal and resulting ashes agrees with that for Al tetra-coordinated with oxygen. So, in the presence of coal organics the tetra-coordinated Al is formed under low temperature conditions, because during low temperature ashing the THDA complex is transformed to Al tetra-coordinated with oxygen only at 350 °C. A similar process occurred in the case of oxidation of coal substance under low temperature conditions in the nature at temperatures below 150 °C., Pavel Straka., and Obsahuje bibliografii
The parameters determine waves energy in shallow water zone that pronounces the crucial influence on abrasion of both natural and artificially paved banks. The effort to re-development of the relations was found as absolutely necessary for waves energy calculations. Substantial benefit of the work is found not only in enabling the use of computers while avoiding time-consuming and difficult application of diagrams, but namely in recent recognition that the calculation results showed a risk of underestimate the real impact of wind-induced waves. In some cases, the calculations respecting the above standard produce lower values of waves height and time-period and thus also lower values of wave energy., Tamara Spanilá and Karel Jahoda., and Obsahuje bibliografické odkazy
