The combination method of results of different space geodetic techniques was recently improved and used to process approximately eight-year data obtained by three space geodetic techniques. The results are compared with the results obtained by the old approach of this method and finally with the solutions of ITRF 2005., Vojtěch Štefka., and Obsahuje bibliografii
Distributed control and measurement system for evaluation of hydrologic, geomechanical and other parameters has been built up in the medieval ore mine Jeroným. The instrumentation is generally based on commercial measurement and control kit and sensors. Technique of implementation of special sensors, e.g. laser distance meter and/or CCBM probe for measurement of rock massif stress changes, is also described. The distributed system is integrated into the existing seis mic recording station equipped by data transmission via GSM network. Comprehensive monitoring system is modular in order to have possibility to change the system configuration., Jaromír Knejzlík and Zdeněk Rambouský., and Obsahuje bibliografické odkazy
Three year monitoring of micro-displacements on four tectonic fracture planes in a tunnel driven by a milling cutter into granitoids of Bohemian Massif revealed micro-movements that develop in certain trends and impulses. Two investigated fractures are of the Krušné Hory Mts. orientation (NE - SW), other two of Sudeten orientation (NW - SE). These have been found the two prevailing fracture orientations in the massif. Results from all the four fractures indicate trends in overfaulting of southern blocks over the northern ones and a stress state model characteristic of approximate N-S compression with overthrust vergence to N. Besides, some impulses were indicated with abrupt occurrence that dominates the development of movements. The first most significant impulse occurred by the end of the year 2004, the second one at the break of 2005/6. The coincidence of the impulses with earthquake events is discussed., Josef Stemberk and Blahoslav Košťák., and Obsahuje bibliografii
Analysis of benchmark height changes along national 1st order precise levelling lines crossing the Middle Odra Fault Zone in the Wroclaw area has been presented in this paper. The zone separates Fore-Sudetic Block from the Fore-Sudetic Monocline and is one of the main geological structures in Lower Silesia. Five national precise levelling lines cross the research area: Ząbkowice Śląskie - Wrocław, Syców - Wrocław, Karczów - Wrocław, Kawice - Wrocław oraz Krotoszyn - Wrocław. These levelling lines were measured in 1956-58, 1975-80 and 1999. Changes of benchmark heights have been presented in comparison with geological cross-sections made along the levelling lines. In the result, areas of the greatest relative vertical displacements correlated with geology and tectonics have been found., Piotr Grzempowski, Janusz Badura, Stefan Cacoń and Bogusław Przybylski., and Obsahuje bibliografii
To investigate recent crustal movements between northern and southern parts of Moravo-Silesian region of the Bohemian Massif and to find their relation to movements of structure blocks of Moldanubicum, it was decided to establish a regional geodynamic network HIGHLANDS. Seven sites for monitoring GPS signals were built with respect of geological and geophysical materials in the southern area of the Českomoravská vysočina Highlands. So far two epoch 48-hours GPS measurements have been performed in 2005 and 2006 with Ashtech receivers and antennas. GPS monitored data were processed by the Bernese software v. 5.0. The rather preliminary site movements were assessed and discussed from the viewpoint of recent geodynamic motions., Zdeňka Schenková, Vladimír Schenk, František Mantlík and Milada Grácová., and Obsahuje bibliografické odkazy
In the article the results of registering seismic events located under mining coal seam are presented. Such mining tremors have occurred in several Polish mines. The geological and mining conditions affecting the induction of that type of seismic events are shown. The mechanisms of deep seismic events (more than 1000m) triggered by mining are discussed in relation to regional geology. The most deep mining seismic events in Upper Silesia were related to regional geological structures focusing stress (e.g. syncline) or tectonic structures (younger faults), where mining stresses were only additional factor to trigger strong regional seismic events. The tremors were characterized by a shear mechanism in the source (double-couple forces). Tremors located directly under the performed operation, usually characterized by an uniaxial tension mechanism, associated with the regional tension axis and the space created during the operation of the coal seam, causing pushing loaded rock-mass into new gobs. Proposed methods of seismic monitoring for case of seismic events location under mining coal seam are discussed., Grzegorz Mutke., and Obsahuje bibliografii

From 61 coking coals, 36 coal blends were prepared. Using a pilot coke oven, cokes were prepared from both 61 coking coals (Type I cokes) and 36 coal blends (Type II cokes). Coals were characterized by 14 coal characteristics and cokes by Coke Reactivity Index CRI and Coke Strength after Reaction with CO2 CSR. For the study of mutual statistic relationships among experimentally determined characteristics of coals and cokes, the Factor (FA) and Regression Analyses (RA) were used. FA distributed characteristics of coals and Type I cokes into 4 factors while characteristics of coal blends and Type II cokes were distributed into 7 factors. In case of pure coals and Type I cokes, strong relationships with high correlation coefficients (R > 0.60 ) were more abundant than in case of coal blends and Type II cokes. FA was used for the selection of coal characteristics that influence the coke quality the most significantly. These characteristics were then recalculated by RA for the predictions of CRI/CSR of Type I cokes. Predictions of CRI/CSR of Type II cokes were calculated from coal blends by the same procedure. The comparison of the predicted and experimentally determined CRI and CSR indexes showed much more reliable prediction of CRI/CSR indexes calculated from coals than calculated from coal blends. This study also explains the dominant reasons of this observation., Jana Serenčíšová, Zdeněk Klika, Ivan Kolomazník, Lucie Bartoňová and Pavel Baran., and Obsahuje bibliografii
A reliability of site movement assessments determined from GPS data monitored during eight two-day epoch measurements on the regional geodynamic EAST SUDETEN network (the Bohemian Massif, Central Europe) is discussed in details. Statistical tests of site positions processed by the BERNESE GPS software, their linear approximations for site movement velocity assessments and an establishment of probabilistic thresholds for reliability of the GPS data for regional geodynamic studies are delivered. The thresholds define necessary observation periods for annual epoch measurements performed on the networks with aim to obtain reliable movement estimates for geodynamic studies., Vladimír Schenk, Zdeňka Schenková, Jaroslaw Bosy and Bernard Kontny., and Obsahuje bibliografii
The application of the double-difference ( DD) algorithm to the relocation of induced seismic events from the Upper Silesian Coal Basin is discussed. The method has been enhanced by combining it with the Monte Carlo sampling technique in order to evaluate relocation errors. Results of both synthetic tests and relocation of real events are shown. They are compared with estimates of the classical single-event (SE) appr oach obtained through the Monte Carlo sampling of the a posteriori probability. On the basis of this comparis on we have concluded that the double-difference approach yields better estimates of depth than the classical location technique., Łukasz Rudziński and Wojciech Dębski., and Obsahuje bibliografické odkazy
