On Adequacy of Two-point Averaging Schemes for Composites with Nonlinear Viscoelastic Phases

open access: yesActa Polytechnica, 2004
Finite element simulations on fibrous composites with nonlinear viscoelastic response of the matrix phase are performed to explain why so called two-point averaging schemes may fail to deliver a realistic macroscopic response. Nevertheless, the potential

Lost learning: Prevalence, inequalities and outcomes of internal exclusion in mainstream secondary schools

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, Volume 52, Issue 2, Page 1012-1037, April 2026.
Abstract Internal exclusion (isolation) is a behaviour management approach involving the temporary relocation of a pupil from their classroom to a designated isolation space as a consequence of disruptive behaviour. We present the first study of prevalence (i.e., what proportion of young people are isolated?), inequalities (i.e., who is more likely to ...

Novel Mutations in  the TAZ Gene in  Patients with Barth Syndrome

open access: yesPrague Medical Report, 2013
Barth syndrome is an X-linked recessive disorder that is caused by mutations in  Taffazin gene (TAZ), leading to severe cardiolipin deficiency which results in respiratory chain dysfunction. Barth syndrome is characterized by cardiomyopathy, neutropenia,

Modelling the rapid spherical compression of isotropic turbulence

open access: yes, 1991
Rapid distortion analysis is used to modify the form of the closure model for the dissipation rate of the turbulent kinetic energy. The modification is such that the evolution of the dissipation rate during a rapid compression is predicted exactly; good ...

Invariant Sets and Explicit Solutions to a Third-Order Model for the Shearless Stratified Turbulent Flow

open access: yes, 2001
We study dynamics of the shearless stratified turbulent flows. Using the method of differential constraints we find a class of explicit solutions to the problem under consideration and establish that the differential constraint obtained coincides with ...

Simple Numerical Model of Laminated Glass Beams

open access: yesActa Polytechnica, 2008
This paper presents a simple Finite Element model aimed at efficient simulation of layered glass units. The approach is based on considering the independent kinematics of each layer, tied together via Lagrange multipliers.

Overcoming the Obstacles to the Relativity of Truth [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
This is a reply to Tomas Marvan's paper "Obstacles to the Relativity of Truth", published in the same issue, in which I attempt to provide an interpretation of the relativist schema "x is true relative to y" by understanding x as ranging over ...

A jigsaw puzzle metamaterial concept

open access: yes, 2018
A concept of a planar modular mechanical metamaterial inspired by the nature's principle of local adaptivity is proposed. The metamaterial consists of identical pieces similar to jigsaw puzzle tiles.
