Demand of energy is more sensible now because of population growth and economic growth of countries. In order to increase of energy consumption around the world and environment pollution, attention to the renewable energy such as solar energy is inevitable. Building-integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) electric power systems not only produce electricity, they are also part of the building. For exam...

In this paper we will first present the measurement of temperatures on different positions at a diesel-powered car. As a result, several locations are identified as suitable to implement a wireless sensor node powered by thermal energy harvesting. Based on the data gained a thermoelectric generator (TEG) has been selected, and measurements of energy generation have been performed. Further, a co...

The aim of the work was to determine quality of an implant mounting within a bone and its strength, as well as to find out, which factors, occurring in the implant-bone system, influence the condition of the contact of an implant mounted within a living tissue the most. The quality of an implant mounting within a bone was experimentally determined by testing 18 samples that had been prepared be...
