30 millennia of sculpture
\" From its prehistoric origins to the conceptual modernity of the 20th century, sculpture has literally and figuratively moulded the art world. Offering an integral vision of the evolution of forms across civilisations and epochs, 30 Centuries of Sculpture presents the masterpieces of sculpture that, with their intriguing silhouettes, have shaped the current notion of beauty. Sculptures can reflect an era, an artist, or his public; this gallery in high relief presents, with its numerous references, detailed commentaries on works, and biographies of artists, an open door to history and art, and an ideal guide for both students and neophytes\"-- Provided by publisher.

Evaluation Methods for Traditional Houses in Dobrogea
Assessing the technical condition of earthen constructions is an extremely difficult task due to the fact that the materials, methods and techniques used in construction have been replaced by new materials and installation procedures. Although they have a fairly large share in the existing housing stock, earthen constructions have not benefited from the same interest in the field of construction. This paper proposes a review of the current assessment possibilities applicable to earthen constructions in relation to the current level of knowledge on a local and international level.

Outlook of the application of the PyCAMFT code for the ISOL installation development
Currently the tracking code PyCAMFT, which can be effectively applied for the simulation of the online isotope separators (ISOL), is being developed. The peculiarities and advantages of the code are discussed. The results of the modeling of a multicomponent beam in a simple separator online using the PyCAMFT are given.

Cylinder diameter measurement with displacement and rotation error correction for non-telecentric optics
The paper presents the implementation of a method for measuring the diameter of cylinders in traffic along a transport line using machine vision systems with correction of the error of displacement and rotation of the product for the case of using non-telecentric optics. Diameters were measured for a set of displacements and rotations of the cylinder, and estimates of the achievable errors of this implementation of the layout of the measuring installation were made.

Efficiency of Vertically Installed Solar PV Panels
Driven by the scarcity of sufficient rooftop areas for PV installation in urban locations, this work assesses the performance and economic considerations of alternative vertical PV installations. A quantitative model-based analysis was conducted to estimate the percentage decrease in output of vertically installed PV modules. The results demonstrate that although vertical installations, driven by a shortage of rooftop space, do indeed result in reduced output, this decrease is deemed acceptable in many scenarios. For installations at high and medium latitude angles above 45°, vertical PV output reaches between 80 to 90% of that at the optimum tilt angle installation, and even surpasses horizontally installed panels for these latitudes. At latitudes between 25° and 45°, the vertical output ranges from 60 to 80% of the optimum, dropping to approximately 50% at latitudes within 20° of the equators. In all cases, the output loss can be easily offset with only a few percent additional cost associated with installing additional PV panels. Additionally, vertical systems collect less dust and require less cleaning. However, the complete system installation costs associated with vertical walls compared to rooftops are subject to specific circumstances and may still impede widespread adoption in some cases. It is expected that these costs will decrease through the implementation of innovations in this area. Examples of such innovations include PV-integrated glass windows and flexible PV panels. In conclusion, vertical wall-installed PV panels can indeed offer a viable alternative to rooftop installation in buildings with limited rooftop space.

Evaluation of the Program Subsidizing Prosumer Photovoltaic Sources in Poland
This article attempts to evaluate the My Electricity program concerning increasing renewable energy production in photovoltaic (PV) prosumer sources (PV micro-installations) in Poland. The assessment is made from the perspective of beneficiaries, business, and local community. One may also find an answer to the question of how this program should be modified so that it continues to support the development of PV systems in Poland. Moreover, how Poles assess the PV technology, in terms of the safety of its users and its impact on the environment, is studied. For this purpose, there was exploratory, qualitative, and quantitative research conducted. Twelve case studies were used as well as online questionnaires conducted on prosumers who used the My Electricity program to install PV micro-installations (57 respondents). By means of interviews, there was a confrontation of their point of view with the opinions of seven skeptics of such installations. Moreover, five experts from the energy industry and politicians involved in the transformation of the energy system were interviewed in order to balance the enthusiastic opinions of prosumers and the skeptical views of objectors to home PV systems. The results of our research indicate that the program is rated very well by enthusiasts of PV systems, although they emphasize the high investment costs and the lack of solutions supporting energy storage. Experts point out that the power grid in Poland is not prepared for such an immediate increase in prosumer PV systems, and they suggest more care in solving this problem.
