Physical car model with trailers
Have you ever reversed with car with a connected trail? If you have then you know that it is not simple how it can seem. And can you imagine you have more than one trail? We can introduce an unique educational physical model for demonstration of manul and automatic driving with one or three trails. This model represents a sophisticated aid for education and research in cybernetics field. In real life you find a lot of examples but we mention transport system for baggages at the airport or automatic parking assistant in a car or truck.
Robots and their application
Robots are used in every area in industry today. Industrial companies want to enhance productivity and lower numbers of low quality employees - therefore they need more and more robots.
Air Quality Management System
Our faculty together with Faculty of Materials Science and Technology and statutory cities from the Czech republic, Slovakia, Poland create a web for transaparental management of air quality called AQMS (Air Quality Management System). The web helps to decide in management of air quality in global region and visualizes an impact of various measures on air quality by a simple way.
Numerical modeling and simulation in Electrical Power Engineering
Electrical Power Engineering does not get by without computing systems working on the base of numerical modeling and simulations. Therefore the listeners during their study at Department of Electrical Power Engineering get to know modern computing procedures and concepts of individual electrical engineering components, operating systems or technological units. For example in final students thesis.
