Cranioplasty is the surgical repair of a bone defect in the skull that is left behind after a severe injury or previous operation. It is usually done to protect underlying brain tissue, reduce local pain and to improve the cranial vault aesthetics. Cranial prostheses can be made from different types of materials: autologous bone, titanium, ceramics...

The paper presents the volume-of-fluid (VOF) method for interface capturing in free surface flows in OpenFOAM® software. The VOF-model utilises an algebraic compressive scheme to effectively shrink the transitional region between the liquid and the gaseous phase. The capabilities of the model are demonstrated by simulating two-dimensionalaxisym...

The paper analyzes the behavior of the plastic container during the buckling, ie during the load effect on the containers. The analysis was experimentally performed on several different types of containers. The container material is polypropylene. Experimental determination of pressure force and corresponding deformation was performed in thelaborat...

The paper explained meaning and importance of the impact of construction machinery due to the specifics of their use. Describes how organization of maintenance activities of machines on construction sites and points to the impact this has on their performance. Accent was placed on possibilities of improving existing practice of building contractors...

In the paper stress analysis of rotary kiln support rollers is conducted. Stress state in the support rollers is caused by temperature gradient, shrinkfit connection between shaft and roller and by the contact with kiln ring. The stress analysis is done analytically and numerically, and the results obtained are compared....
