Książka w środowisku lokalnym i regionalnym by Jacek Wojciechowski

“…The changes that are currently taking place in public communication, especially those influenced by IT, have triggered opinions that traditional forms of communication, especially paper forms, are on the verge of extinction. In fact, however, complementary coexistence of both forms of communication, after a careful segmentation process of functioning areas, is more likely to happen. …”

Pre-failure indicators detected by Acoustic Emission: Alfas stone, cement-mortar and cement-paste specimens under 3-point bending by Stavros K. Kourkoulis, Ioanna Dakanali

“…It is hoped that obtaining a clear understanding of the nature of AE signals re¬corded during these element¬ary tests will provide a valuable tool permitting “identification” and “classification” of signals emitted in case of structural tests. The results appear encouraging. In addition, it is concluded that for all materials tested (in spite their differences in micro¬structure and composition) clear pre-failure indicators are detected, in good accordance to similar indicators pro-vided by other techniques like the Pressure Stimulated Currents (PSC) one.…”
