Abstract

In this work problems associated with requirements related to pollution emissions in compliance with more restrictive standards, low-emission combustion technology, technical realization of the monitoring system as well as algorithms allowing combustion process diagnostics are discussed. Results of semi-industrial laboratory facility and industrial (power station) research are presented as well as the possibility of application of information obtained from the optical fibre monitoring system for combustion process control. Moreover, directions of further research aimed to limit combustion process environmental negative effects are presented.

Abstract

The aim of the article is an attempt to trace the fate of several appellatives grouped in the lexical field around the hyperonym świnia ʽpig, swine’ (wieprz ʽhog’, knur/kiernoz ʽboar’ and prosię ʽpiglet’) as the motivation of many names in Polish onymy, mainly in anthroponymy and toponymy. My research has been conducted along the lines of historical anthropology. Proper names in this approach play an important role in the reconstruction of the past. The field of interest of this article includes mainly names belonging to the old onymic layer. Proper names arise from the lexicon of a given language, which is why my analysis is based on lexical and semantic methodology. My point of departure is the meaning (often reconstructed) of appellative lexical units, including their semantic modifications in the proprial layer. I interpret proper names on the basis of findings regarding their origin and motivation. The first names motivated by the lexeme świnia were associated with the economic organization of the Piast state. In the article I present the history of their creation. I go on to discuss the other lexemes which became the basis of many names belonging to different naming categories. The presence of etymons of interest to us in so many proper names during the Middle Ages allows us to draw the conclusion that pigs played an extremely important role in the lives of our ancestors.

Abstract

The article is devoted to more comprehensive use of medieval onymic resources in research on the history of the Polish language. These materials were used in research on the phonetic development of the Polish language in its earliest period. To date, they have rarely appeared in lexical studies. The body of the oldest appellatives, reconstructed on the basis of proper names, would be a kind of lexicon (supplement) enriching and verifying old Polish lexical material, certifi ed in historical Polish dictionaries (also in etymological dictionaries). In this way, the expectations formulated over 100 years ago by eminent Polish linguists may be fulfi lled. The complementary use of such a huge wealth of material opens up further research perspectives towards etymological, dialectological, lexical and morphological research.

Abstract

Na fali odrodzenia rzemiosł w 1901 r. w Krakowie powstało Towarzystwo Polska Sztuka Stosowana (TPSS), szybko skupiło ono w swoim kręgu najwybitniejszych polskich projektantów. Towarzystwo ze względu na bliskość geograficzną, ale przede wszystkim pokrewne idee i cele możemy zestawić z działalnością Warsztatów Wiedeńskich. Towarzystwo próbowało zaistnieć na wiedeńskiej scenie artystycznej poprzez prezentowanie przedmiotów zaprojektowanych przez jego członków na wystawach wiedeńskiej „Secesji”, ich sprzedaż w wiedeńskich sklepach, a także publikację tekstów na temat własnej działalności w czasopiśmie „Hohe Warte”. Analizując prace projektantów mebli związanych z TPSS, możemy wskazać trzy tendencje: inspiracje sztuką ludową, zwrot ku stylom dawnym, a także skłonność do upraszczania sprzętów i nadawania im minimalistycznej formy, pozbawionej ornamentyki. Zazwyczaj na pierwszy plan wysuwany jest nurt związany ze sztuką ludową, wiążący się z poszukiwaniem stylu narodowego. Jednakże najbardziej innowacyjne projekty możemy odnaleźć w trzeciej grupie. Właśnie te prace polskich projektantów możemy porównać z dziełami artystów związanych z Warsztatami Wiedeńskimi. W nurt purystycznej geometryzacji, który dominował w pierwszych latach działalności Warsztatów, wpasowują się projekty Stanisława Wyspiańskiego, Edwarda Trojanowskiego i Karola Tichego. Również kolejna faza stylowa, którą prezentowało młodsze pokolenie członków Warsztatów, czyli skłonność do dekoracyjności i eksperymentowania ze stylami dawnymi, znajduje odbicie w polskim meblarstwie, czego przykładem są projekty Karola Frycza i Henryka Uziembły.

Abstract

The paper presents the problem of assessing the accuracy of reconstructing free-form surfaces in the CMM/CAD/CAM/CNC systems. The system structure comprises a coordinate measuring machine (CMM) PMM 12106 equipped with a contact scanning probe, a 3-axis Arrow 500 Vertical Machining Center, QUINDOS software and Catia software. For the purpose of surface digitalization, a radius correction algorithm was developed. The surface reconstructing errors for the presented system were assessed and analysed with respect to offset points. The accuracy assessment exhibit error values in the reconstruction of a free-form surface in a range of ± 0.02 mm, which, as it is shown by the analysis, result from a systematic error.

Abstract

Management and Production Engineering Review (MPER) is a peer-refereed, international, multidisciplinary journal covering a broad spectrum of topics in production engineering and management. Production engineering is a currently developing stream of science encompassing planning, design, implementation and management of production and logistic systems. Orientation towards human resources factor differentiates production engineering from other technical disciplines. The journal aims to advance the theoretical and applied knowledge of this rapidly evolving field, with a special focus on production management, organisation of production processes, management of production knowledge, computer integrated management of production flow, enterprise effectiveness, maintainability and sustainable manufacturing, productivity and organisation, forecasting, modelling and simulation, decision making systems, project management, innovation management and technology transfer, quality engineering and safety at work, supply chain optimization and logistics. Management and Production Engineering Review is published under the auspices of the Polish Academy of Sciences Committee on Production Engineering and Polish Association for Production Management. The main purpose of Management and Production Engineering Review is to publish the results of cutting-edge research advancing the concepts, theories and implementation of novel solutions in modern manufacturing. Papers presenting original research results related to production engineering and management education are also welcomed. We welcome original papers written in English. The Journal also publishes technical briefs, discussions of previously published papers, book reviews, and editorials. Letters to the Editor-in-Chief are highly encouraged.
