Land cover/land use (LULC) have an important impact on land degradation,erosion and water availability therefore mapping of patterns and spatial distribution ofLULC is essential for land management. Accurate mapping of complex land cover andland use classes using remotely sensed data requires robust classification methods.Various classification alg...

Within this contribution we present recently published findings [1] on the new way of utilizing polymeric materials for vibration damping. We present and demonstrate patented dissipative bulk and granular systems technology [2], based on which we have developed granular damping elements (GDE). The damping elements consist of granular viscoelastic m...

Geoportal is an indispensable part of the national spatial data infrastructure and a central point of access to spatial data. The paper presents the development of a geoportal based on the principles of service-oriented architecture. Open source frameworks and libraries were used to create geoportal. The aim of the paper is to present a partially d...

During the last thirty years, concrete has been industrially mutating from a soft granular medium to a proper non-Newtonian fluid. To benefit from the full potential of the modern fluid concretes such as Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC), prediction tools of the form filling taking into account the properties of the concrete, the shape and size of the...
