This article presents a summary result of the survey on the need for mechatronics education. The study was conducted as a cooperation project between two teams established at two universities: AGH-UST from Poland and University of Stavanger (UiS) from Norway. Both companies and High School Pupils are surveyed in this project, but only feedbacks from the former are analyzed in this article. As a...

Eukaryotic genomes contain many conserved regions of unknown function. Accurately assessing the protein coding potential of these regions is a key step in annotation. We develop three protein coding measures that directly assess conserved regions in multiple sequence alignments of many species: one based on phase-shifts induced by alignment gaps, another based on the 3rd position mutation asymm...

K. Kaczmarska, B. Grabowska, D. Drożyński, AGH University of Science and Technology, Faculty of Foundry Engineering, Krakow, Poland The results of preliminary tests of selected properties of the moulding sands with the binder in the form of a 5 % water solution of the sodium salt of carboxymethyl starch (with a degree of substitution (DS) of 0,2 and 0,87) are presented in this study. The mouldi...

Mickiewicza 30, PL-30-059 Kraków, Poland Simulations are performed according to the Axelrod model of culture dissemination, with modi ed mechanism of repulsion. Previously, repulsion was considered by Radillo-Diaz et al. as dependent on a prede ned threshold. Here the probabilities of attraction and...

Annually, 200 ha of Agh Ghala rangelands in Golestan, Iran are under Alkaligrass Puccinella distans''s cultivation but the failure in the identification of appropriate sites for seed sowing may result in high costs of cultivation. The current study aims to reduce such costs through the examination of apt sites to grow P. distans in northern rangelands of Agh Ghala Golestan, Iran. Because of the...

Jamrozowicz, AGH University of Science and Technology, Faculty of Foundry Engineering, Kraków, Poland Multi-layer ceramic moulds are built of slurry and a refractory material forming their matrices. From the moment when the European Union introduced regulations concerning the environment protection requiring substitution of alcoholic binders by aqueous binders, several d...

R. Klempka, AGH University of Science and Technology, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Automatics, Computer Science and Biomedical Engineering, Krakow, Poland The article presents an example of power supply system modernization in one of Polish steelworks. For the existing power system containing 3rd harmonics filters it was necessary to design a C-type filter for the 2nd harmonics. Two desig...
