The specifics of a forecast fire development in a single fire compartment consisting of a shopping hall characterised by a large area and a relatively low height are analysed in this paper. The fire initiated locally, and after initiation, depending on the ventilation conditions in the zone, more or less intensively spread to the neighbouring areas with or without full development. The propagation of hot exhaust plume was simulated within the environment of the FDS computer code. Three formal models differing in zone size and stacking height have been subjected to analysis. The influence of automatically activated smoke vents has been accounted for.

This paper presents an approximate method for a groundwater flow analysis in the case of a slope with vertical dewatering wells distributed equidistantly. Firstly, a multi-scale problem of flow to a drainage well is solved and flow model to a perforated tube with a filter screen is shown. Secondly, a method of building quasi-3D flow model of a slope with vertical dewatering wells using a technique of overlapped 2D mesh is shown. A short description of the implementation of this 2D/3D flow model for the ZSoil.PC code is given. The results of the described 2D/3D method are compared with a referential 3D analysis giving an acceptable level of agreement. Finally, the 2D/3D method of flow analysis is used in a two-phase (flow + deformation) formulation of a slope stability problem. The comparison of the results of these analyses with fully 3D (referential) analysis, on an example problem provides a very close accurate stability and deformation estimation; however, the computational time used for the 2D/3D analysis is significantly shorter than required by 3D analysis.

When observing the stability of suspended ceilings during operation, sometimes smaller failures are observed, up to disasters, even a few of considerable sizes and serious consequences. The aim of the article is to analyse the causes of damage to a suspended ceiling, with an area of approximately 500 m2, as well as testing and checking the applied construction elements. In situ destructive tests as well as tests at the AGH laboratory were carried out. The analyses were carried out in accordance with PN/EN 13964: 2014 (E). It was found that the designed ceiling system solution was correct. Whereas in the performance, an improper spacing of hangers, even by more than 70% of the permissible spacing, and forbidden lengths of brackets from C60 profiles, were applied. Also, about 55% of the connectors had too small diameters of the ends of the mandrels, which allowed for the sliding of broken head and a sudden loss of carrying capacity of the hanger.

This paper presents a new method for passive current compensation of a real multiharmonic power source with the use of a four-terminal network. In contrast to a two-terminal compensator, a four-terminal-network compensator can fully separate the supply circuit from the load. This ensures optimal operating conditions for the source while keeping the voltage and load current unchanged. The source’s optimal working conditions mean that the source current reaches its minimal RMS value (becoming the so-called “active current”) while it transmits the desired active power to the load.

This article presents investigations performed on a 25 kV AC system with a Scott transformer simulation model. The model includes an energy quality parameter calculation algorithm with consideration to the train timetable. The simulation results enable an analysis of the energy quality parameters at the point of connection of the traction substation to the supplying grid. The presented tool enables the simultaneous calculation of voltage unbalance and harmonic content. The article presents the results of the energy quality analysis at the substation connection point for the specific location. The simulation results of the energy quality parameters are appraised on the basis of standard EN  50160:2010. The tool may prove helpful in the process of designing electrification systems, especially in the choice of traction transformer and power electronics device mitigating an imbalance and harmonic impact

This paper presents considerations on selected methodological aspects of respirometric COD fractionation in industrial wastewater which may differ from more common applications of such methodology for municipal wastewater. This concerns: the presence of interfering substances; problems with the elimination of nitrification; the importance of recognising biomass metabolism; differences of growth coefficient; the inclusion of non-canonical COD fractions and toxic effects. The discussion is based on a literature review and the authors’ own experience. As a conclusion, a preparatory procedure is proposed to assure the correct performance of respirometric COD fractionation for industrial wastewater, especially for more complex chemical effluents.
