Added-Mass Based Efficient Fluid–Structure Interaction Model for Dynamics of Axially Moving Panels with Thermal Expansion
2020
The paper considers the analysis of a traveling panel, submerged in axially flowing fluid. In order to accurately model the dynamics and stability of a lightweight moving material, the interaction between the material and the surrounding air must be taken into account. The lightweight material leads to the inertial contribution of the surrounding air to the acceleration of the panel becoming significant. This formulation is novel and the case complements our previous studies on the field. The approach described in this paper allows for an efficient semi-analytical solution, where the reaction pressure of the fluid flow is analytically represented by an added-mass model in terms of the panel…

Structural Parameters under Partial Least Squares and Covariance-Based Structural Equation Modeling : A Comment on Yuan and Deng (2021)
2023
In their article, Yuan and Deng argue that a structural parameter under partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) is zero if and only if the same structural parameter is zero under covariance-based structural equation modeling (CB-SEM). Yuan and Deng then conclude that statistical tests on individual structural parameters assessing the null hypothesis of no effect can achieve the same purpose in CB-SEM and PLS-SEM. Our response to their article highlights that the relationship they find between PLS-SEM and CB-SEM structural parameters is not universally valid, and that consequently, tests on individual parameters in CB-SEM and PLS-SEM generally do not fulfill the same pur…
Lwów w metryce - Kijów we wspomnieniach - Polska w sercu. Historia malarza Włodzimierza Bartoszewicza (1899-1983) i jego peregrynacji
2020
W historii Polski nie brakuje postaci, których życie z uwagi na burzliwe dzieje XX w. było wypełnione wieloma interesującymi wydarzeniami. Należał do nich zapomniany niestety współcześnie polski malarz Włodzimierz Bartoszewicz. Historia jego życia rozpoczęła się w 1899 r. we Lwowie, gdzie przyszedł na świat w rodzinie Joachima Bartoszewicza i Marii z Jełowickich. Był jedynakiem, którego rodzice wiele uwagi poświęcili kwestii jego edukacji. Na poziomie szkolnym była ona realizowana w Kijowie, gdzie od 1906 r. Joachim Bartoszewicz objął redakcję polskiego czasopisma „Dziennik Kijowski”. W 1919 r. 20-letni Włodzimierz Bartoszewicz mieszkał już w Paryżu - towarzyszył swojemu ojcu, który był czł…
Pastores en los libros de emblemas españoles
2009
International audience; In Spanish emblem books the figure of the badly shepherd is used for criticizing the excessive tax system and the abandonment of the power on the part of the king. Two types of representations use: rustic shepherd and mythological shepherd. These are applied both to the power of the state and to the individual area.; En los libros de emblemas se utiliza la figura del mal pastor para criticar la fiscalidad excesiva y la dejación del poder por parte del rey. Dos tipos de representaciones se emplean : pastor rústico y pastor mitológico. Estas se aplican tanto al poder del estado como al ámbito individual.
Making bishops in the Malta of the knights (1530-1798). An international game of parties, patronage and diplomacy
2011
Charles V’s donation of Malta to the Order of St. John in 1530 also established the procedure for appointment of the bishop of the island, whose episcopal seat since the time of the Norman conquest was subject to royal patronage, and thus to the King of Sicily’s right of presentation: the Grand Master would propose to the Spanish king, through the viceroy of Sicily, a ranking of three candidates, previously approved by the Council of the Order, belonging to the rank of convent chaplain and which contained at least one Sicilian. From that time until the expulsion of the knights from the island after the French occupation (1798), 15 bishops were chosen for the Maltese episcopal see. In these …
Psychometric properties of the Assessment Tool for Perceived Agency (ATPA-22) - utility for the rehabilitation of young adults not in education, empl…
2020
Background: Promoting and supporting agency have been at the heart of the debate multidisciplinary. To promote self-awareness of young people’s agency and identify persons in need of support the Assessment Tool for Perceived Agency (ATPA-22) was developed. Aim: This study aims to evaluate the psychometric properties of the ATPA-22. Participants were young adults not in education, employment or training (NEETs) and students in higher education (HEI). Materials and methods: The main data analysis was implemented by Many Faceted Rasch (MFR) analysis. Results: The ATPA-22 items defined a unidimensional construct with reasonable internal consistency and separation ability. The ATPA-22 was capabl…
Medical management of patients with peripheral arterial disease.
2014
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is one of the most frequent manifestations of atherosclerosis and is associated with atherosclerosis in the coronary and carotid arteries, leading to a highly increased incidence of cardiovascular events. Major risk factors of PAD are similar to those that lead to atherosclerosis in other vascular beds. However, there are differences in the power of individual risk factors in the different vascular territories. Cigarette smoking and diabetes mellitus represent the greatest risks of PAD. For prevention of the progression of PAD and accompanying cardiovascular events similar preventative measures are used as in coronary artery disease (CAD). However, recent d…
Initial validation of the Psychobiosocial States in Physical Education (PBS-SPE) scale
2018
The purpose of this cross-sectional investigation was to examine the item characteristics, factor structure, reliability, convergent validity, and nomological validity of the Psychobiosocial States in Physical Education (PBS-SPE) scale. In Study 1, a sample of 1,030 students (582 girls and 448 boys, 10 to 19-year-olds), drawn from middle or high schools, rated the intensity of the 20 items version of the PBS-SPE scale thinking about the feelings they had usually experienced in physical education classes. In Study 2, an additional sample of 1,025 students (578 girls, 447 boys, 10 to 19-year-olds), rated the 16 items of the final version of the scale. Two subsamples also completed an affectiv…
