Content of this contribution is an issue of inertial sensors errors, specification of inertial measurement units and generating of test signals for Inertial Navigation System (INS). Given the different levels of navigation tasks, part of this contribution is comparison of the actual types of Inertial Measurement Units. Considering this comparison, there is proposed the way…
Radar antennas deployed in real use usually include a protective dome, which shields them from potentially harmful weather conditions. The protective dome is typically constructed from a plastic material, which can affect the radar signal. The presented paper deals with signal attenuation caused by radar’s dome. It provides results of a computer simulation concerning this…
This contribution deals with the Simulation of manufacturing systems. Plant simulation is a modern instrument for optimizing factory production; however, the initial investment is high, especially for human resources, since the creation of a simulation model requires a lot of data from manufacturing, which needs to be analyzed and used as input into the simulation…
The competition of international manufacturing networks creates pressure to increase the efficiency of manufacturing systems. In addition to this, indicative for the present period is the fact that the number of technical components in many products is increasing, and at the same time the requirements are growing for corresponding assembly, transport and logistical processes. These…
Continuously growing needs of society brings with it the development of industry, new technologies and use of new types of hazardous substances. Each transport of hazardous substance entails some risk of incident. This article deals with problems of transporting of dangerous goods by rail. The paper describes the Directive, which forms the basis of the…
This paper tries to find the answers to the following questions: What does Situational Airworthiness (SA) truly mean from the viewpoint of the pilot ability to keep acceptable safety level on each phase of the aircraft mission execution? Which element of the aviation model has the highest influence on that pilot ability? Which sub-factors have…
Safety at the airport has been current and frequently discussed topic. To ensure safety at the airport in case of an extraordinary event, crisis staff participates. Based on this fact, there follows necessity to train members of crisis staff. The article describes phases and modules of education process, software for scenario creation and then follows…
Constantly increasing requirements on road safety lead to the development of new technologies and safety systems implemented in motor vehicles. Most of these systems help prevent accidents or reduce the severity of subsequent damage to persons and property occurred during an accident. However, these systems do not contribute to reduce the delay of the first…
The article focuses on the issue of traffic service for rural settlements and related production, tourist and recreation activities in rural areas in the conditions of the Czech Republic by means of rural tertiary roads. The article declares their critical importance for assurance of traffic service and penetrability of the Czech rural areas. Theoretical grounds…
This paper presents the outcomes of the research focused on the passengers’ subjective point of view on the Integrated Transport Systems (ITS) comparing with the separate non-integrated traffic lines. The research, within project realized in the Institute of Technology and Business in České Budějovice, was performed in several cities located in the central part of…
