    U ovom istraživanju ispitivano je 20 uzoraka kamena sa Zagrebačke katedrale. Uzorci su blokova litotamnijskog vapnenca i pješčenjaka koji su pali s katedrale tijekom potresa u Zagrebu 2020. godine. Osnovna svojstva koja su ispitivana su: mineraloški sastav temeljen na rendgenskoj difrakciji, gustoća, prostorna masa, otvorena i ukupna poroznost te apsorpcija vode pri atmosferskom tlaku. Rezultati su pokazali da uzorci litotamnijskog vapnenca i pješčenjaka posjeduju vrijednosti osnovnih svojstava unutar normalnog raspona za pojedinu vrstu stijene.In this study, 20 samples from the Zagreb Cathedral were tested. The samples were taken from lithothamnium limestone and sandstone blocks that fell during the 2020 earthquake in Zagreb. The basic properties that were tested were: mineralogical composition based on X-Ray Diffraction, real and apparent density, open and total porosity, and water absorption at atmospheric pressure. The results showed that the lithotanium limestone and sandstone samples had values of aforementioned properties within the normal range for their respective rock type

    Probabilistic Online Robot Learning via Teleoperated Demonstrations for Remote Elderly Care

    Daily household tasks involve manipulation in cluttered and unpredictable environments and service robots require complex skills and adaptability to perform such tasks. To this end, we developed a teleoperated online learning approach with a novel skill refinement method, where the operator can make refinements to the initially trained skill by a haptic device. After a refined trajectory is formed, it is used to update a probabilistic trajectory model conditioned to the environment state. Therefore, the initial model can be adapted when unknown variations occur and the method is able to deal with different object positions and initial robot poses. This enables human operators to remotely correct or teach complex robotic manipulation skills. Such an approach can help to alleviate shortages of caretakers in elderly care and reduce travel time between homes of different elderly to reprogram the service robots whenever they get stuck. We performed a human factors experiment on 18 participants teaching a service robot how to empty a dishwasher, which is a common daily household task performed by caregivers. We compared the developed method against three other methods. The results show that the proposed method performs better in terms of how much time it takes to successfully adapt a model and in terms of the perceived workload.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository 'You share, we take care!' - Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Human-Robot Interactio

    Here rockmagnetic results: Provenance and formation of the red palaeosol and lithified terra rossa-like infillings on the Island of Susak: A high-resolution and chronological approach

    Red palaeosol (RP) covering the carbonate basement exposed at the bottom of the loess section and lithified terra rossa-like materials situated in cavities (LTR1) and karstified fissures (LTR2) in Cretaceous limestones were investigated by means of high-resolution approach, to give a systematic and deeper palaeo-pedological insight into reddish materials and the exposed red palaeosols on the island of Susak. LTR1 and LTR2 represent erosional remains of different soils that existed on the surface of thelimestone bedrock prior to the formation of the RP. Our attempt to resolve the age of LTR2 formation more precisely, using palaeomagnetic investigations, did not give unam-biguous results because the extremely viscous behaviour of the LTR2 samples hinders the acquisition of a stable remanent magnetisation. Since no reversal of the EMF was recorded in the RP, we concluded that the RP formed during the Brunhes epoch
