    ELEVEN FACES OF JAN GOGOL, JR.

    No full text
    Author Jan Rendl in his thesis attempts to look at the world of ideas and educator Jan Gogola ml. through the eleven chapters in which each chapter somehow characterizes itself by Jan Gogola ml. and each of them somehow determines its creative ideas of it through the metaphor of a football match when Jan Gogola, with its characters, movies himself a teammate, as well as defensively. It gives goals with their situations as well as occasionally digging his opponents ankles. Jan Gogola ml. thus embodies one stage of the Department of Documentary Film at FAMU, which often stands at the intersection between teaching activities and Karel Vachek among students who applied by them during their seminars psychological methods that work must be peculiarly associated with the author of the film

    This creative project is a treatise on a leading personality of Czechoslovakian musical life, the composer, Jan Kapr. The author discusses the following:1. The complicated development of Kapr's career and work, 2. Kapr's method of organization of musical material in a composition, as described in his book Constants,3. His former and current style which is demonstrated in two of his compositions, Concert Variations, for flute and string orchestra and Testimonies for four solo instruments,4. Two of his recent works, Exercises for Gydli and the Symphony No. 7, Country of Childhood.Thesis (M.A.

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Murals and graffiti in the public space of Plock

    No full text
    Zapełnianie przestrzeni publicznej malowidłami, zwanymi muralami oraz graffiti staje się coraz bardziej akceptowane społecznie. Jest cechą wyróżniającą, miasta wykorzystującą sztukę uliczną w celu zainteresowania miejscem. Prowadzi się szeroką edukację o ruchu graffiti, piętnując jednocześnie wandalizm i naruszanie prawa. Płock także ma tradycje muralsko-grafficiarskie. W poniższym referacie zaprezentowano wycinek tego obszaru sztuki ulicznej.Filling the public space with paintings called both murals and graffiti is becoming more and more socially accepted. It is a distinguishing feature, cities use street art in order to interest one in a particular place. The broadly understood education about graffiti movement is provided, at the same time both vandalism and an infringement of a copyright are condemned. Plock also has mural-graffiti traditions. In the following paper, a fragment of this street art area is presented

    This article is dedicated to Prof. F. Jan Decyk who suddenly past away. He was a priest of the Diocese of Plock. As a theologian of liturgy in his research and teaching activities he was bound with the environment of Cardinal Stefan Wyszynski University in Warsaw. From 1999 to 2005 Prof. F. Jan Decyk was the vice-dean of the Faculty of Theology of this University and in the years 1996-2015 he was the head of the Department of History of Liturgy. About 85 works including 10 dissertation were created under his direction. In his theological research he focused on the cult of the dead in renewed liturgy after Vatican Council II. These studies were the part of contemporary eschatology. The last part of the article, written by a student and professor’s assistant, is kind of memory devoted to the friendliness that late prof. f. Jan Decyk showed to his students during his priestly and academic work

    Application of a new laser Doppler imaging system in planning and monitoring of surgical flaps

    There is a demand for technologies able to assess the perfusion of surgical flaps quantitatively and reliably to avoid ischemic complications. The aim of this study is to test a new high-speed high-definition laser Doppler imaging (LDI) system (FluxEXPLORER, Microvascular Imaging, Lausanne, Switzerland) in terms of preoperative mapping of the vascular supply (perforator vessels) and postoperative flow monitoring. The FluxEXPLORER performs perfusion mapping of an area 9 x 9 cm with a resolution of 256 x 256 pixels within 6 s in high-definition imaging mode. The sensitivity and predictability to localize perforators is expressed by the coincidence of preoperatively assessed LDI high flow spots with intraoperatively verified perforators in nine patients. 18 free flaps are monitored before, during, and after total ischemia. 63% of all verified perforators correspond to a high flow spot, and 38% of all high flow spots correspond to a verified perforator (positive predictive value). All perfused flaps reveal a value of above 221 perfusion units (PUs), and all values obtained in the ischemic flaps are beneath 187 PU. In summary, we conclude that the present LDI system can serve as a reliable, fast, and easy-to-handle tool to detect ischemia in free flaps, whereas perforator vessels cannot be detected appropriately

    Monitoring System for a Cable-Stayed Bridge in Plock

    &lt;p&gt;Not so long ago, a pretty bridge was completed in Poland, over the Vistula River, near the city of Plock. The bridge is made of steel. It is a cable-stayed bridge with a main span of 375 m. The bridge is subjected to permanent structural control by what we will call a ‘monitoring system’.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This system monitors the following factors: force in the stays, inclination of the pylons, strains in the structure, wind load. The following gauges were employed: load cells, inclinometers, strain gauges, anemometers. The conclusions were divided into four groups: remarks concerning the operation of the system, remarks on the safety of the bridge, knowledge-building observations on the behavior of cable-stayed structures and data on real environmental effects on bridges. The conclusions drawn after the first two years of data acquisition are reassuring. The behavior of the bridge is not unexpected and the parameters measured are within the foreseen limits.&lt;/p&gt;</jats:p
