We present measurements of the optical properties of crystalline PbIn6Te10. The samples are grown in the form of parallelepipeds of size _5 _ 3 _ 0.3 mm3. The absorption coefficient a(hn) shows an exponential behavior with energy in the energy range 0.82–0.99 eV followed by&#x...

The paper deals with the computational model of quasi-static transport of 2-component electrolyte solution transport trough deformable porous medium respecting material microstructure. The multiscale approach is used to derive effective tensors describing macroscopic homogenized body. Numerical simulatio...

This study shows a methodology to estimate mechanical parameters of thin films by means of a bulge test and a numerical approach. The methodology is based on the combination of finite element analysis with a classical analytical method. Finite element modelling was conducted for&#x...

The operation of steam turbines is related to the extreme conditions such as high pressure and temperature, which can lead to fatigue issues and subsequent undesirable problems. This paper is focused on the methodology for the fracture analysis of turbine casings. The evaluation me...

Challenges in modern engineering require implementation of more and more complex computational models. The computational models are often non-linear and even a slight modification of a design parameter can cause qualitative changes in a predicted response. Several visualisation methods which impr...
