Methane as a main component of natural gas, but simultaneously an explosive compound with pronounced negative environmental impact. Therefore, methane should be detected with high precision and reliability. However, the inertness and non-polar nature of methane is limiting its simple detection&#x...

Nowadays, a range of sensors and actuators can be realized directly in the structure of textile substrates using metal-plated yarns, metal-filament yarns, or functionalized yarns with nanomaterials, such as nanowires, nanoparticles, or carbon materials. However, the evaluation or control circuits ...

Potting compounds are widely used in electrical engineering. One of the distinctive subgroups is the so-called cold-cure potting compounds. These potting compounds are mainly used for mechanical or photosensitive protection and are thus often exposed to extreme conditions due to their nature...

In today's world, scientists are focusing on developing new materials that provide lower costs, environmental sustainability or increased capabilities. One way to develop new materials is to modify conventional types already established in industry. An example is the development of composite&...

The COMPASS-U tokamak (R = 0.894 m, a = 0.27 m, Bt = 5 T, Ip = 2 MA) is a new medium-size device with fully metallic plasma facing components, currently under construction at the Institute of Plasma Physics of the Czech Academy of Sciences in Prague. It fea...
