Abstract This paper presents a method of cutting tool vibration energy harvesting for wireless applications, the created devices and the results of the accomplished experiments. The proposed high frequency piezo generator assures energy harvesting, accumulation and appropriateness for wireless sensors applications. The proposed architecture composed from energy harvesting transducer, energy accumulating capacitor, sensors, microcontroller and RF link opens a way for wireless sensors networks in manufacturing technologies providing the effective integration of information, delivered by sensors of different nature, to achieve a wholesome description of the status of the monitored process. The elaborated algorithm and the created detector could reach no more than 100-150 nA current consumption during capacitor charging. This method makes possible the accumulation of necessary energy during turning tool vibrations. According to the experimental results, the created wireless sensor energy harvester prototype satisfies the energy needs for sensors and is capable of transmitting the information at the distance of 20 metres. For cutting tool performance evaluation the limitary moment, when cutting tool starts manufacturing inappropriate quality parts, was defined experimentally and statistically. Keywords: vibration energy harvesting, piezo generator, wireless sensor node 1. Introduction Rapidly increasing numbers of wireless sensor nodes and their networks necessitate t he development of continuously powered systems avoiding the most expensive issue of its maintenance –periodical battery replacement or recharge [1]. Capturing small amounts of energy from the surrounding vibrations, accumulating them and storing for later use is one of the perspective techniques in recent years [2], recently realized by magnetostrictive, electrostatic, electromagnetic or piezoelectric transduction mechanisms [3]. Most attractive frequencies for the harvesters are less than 100 Hz [4]. Piezoelectric transduction was chosen from the other available motion-to-electricity conversion methods due to its high energy density, favorable dynamic response as well as self-contained power generation materials [5]. Piezoelectric converters are a right choice for converting mechanical energy to electricity because energy density is more than three times higher as compared to electrostatic and electromagnetic energy generation methods. The concept of multi functionality is related to the combination of several functions in the components made from the same material. Possible system performance improvement possibilities using multifunctional materials are discussed in the paper [6]. Structural power systems, from the denoted four classes of multifunctional material systems, enabling the integration of energy storage capability with the structural function, are most interesting for applications. Energy capturing from different sources could be obligatory in cases when the amount of energy scavenged from the unique source is not sufficient for allowing the alimented system to remain online. Hybrid energy harvesting results, presented in [7] demonstrate the effectiveness of simultaneous application of piezoelectric. There are different mounting ways of piezoelectric generators, but the most common are cantilever beams [8]. The stability of a constant energy flow between the energy source and the load is a key element of the energy harvesting system. As the piezoelectric energy harvesting devices do not ensure enough current to power MEMS sensors, the development of storage devices and the enhancement of charge density are essential. Investigation of methods for improving electrical charge density for the circuitry and signal processing reduction are needed as well. The most fruitful efforts will likely come from hybridized power supplies, which offer both, on-board storage and energy harvesting from environmental sources.

  • The Attractiveness of Court Culture During the Jagiellonian Era
    Odrodzenie i Reformacja w Polsce PL ISSN 0029‑8514 Special Issue Małgorzata Wilska (Warsaw) The Attractiveness of Court Culture during the Jagiellonian Era Court culture is generated predominantly by the social milieu surround‑ ing the king and monarchic authority. The court guaranteed a suitable setting for all the activity of the monarch and royal accounts did not separate expenses for the private needs of the ruler and his family and those of a state character. The transmission of cultural values occurred everywhere where the king and court stayed: on the meadow where land court sessions were held, at the castle during a feast, at an assembly, in the course of a hunt, and along the entire route of the king’s entourage. It should be kept in mind that the governance of Władysław II Jagiełło and his successors involved incessant motion, a constant traversing across Polish lands from Cracow to Lithuania. The image of the king viewed directly was connected in social mentality with a model of the monarch moulded by tradition and court ideology. This image was composed of two overlapping visions: the sacrum and the profanum. The former demanded respect for the God’s anointed, and the latter rendered him closer to the perspective of the subjects and exposed him to criticism.1 Chronicles enable us seeing changes occurring in the ideology of power during the reign of the Piast dynasty. Casimir III the Great was already far from the image of the warrior‑king and defender of the homeland depicted by Gallus writing about Bolesław I the Brave.

  • The Grand Duchy of Lithuania in the Beginning of the 15Th
    THE GRAND DUCHY OF LITHUANIA IN THE BEGINNING OF THE 15 TH CENTURY A er the death of Grand Duke Algirdas (1345–1377), his son Jogaila became the leader. In order to divert all a ention to the East, Jogaila signed a secret agreement with the Order, known as the Treaty of Dovydiškės, according to which the Order was free to a ack the lands belonging to Algirdas’ brother Kęstutis and his son, Vytautas. e Order informed Kęstutis of this agreement and in so doing initiated a civil war in Lithuania. At + rst, Kęstutis removed Jogaila from his seat of power, however, in 1382, Jogaila conquered Vilnius and imprisoned Kęstutis and Vytautas. Kęstutis was held prisoner in Krėva Castle, and was strangled by Jogaila’s servants. Vytautas managed to escape and sought protection with the Crusaders. Vytautas and Jogaila made peace in 1384, yet Jogaila once again failed to keep his promise to return Vytautas his fatherland, the Duchy of Trakai. In 1390–1392 Vytautas again appealed to the Order for assistance to go to war against Jogaila. Jogaila, who by now spent most of his time in Poland, could see that his appointed vicegerent, his brother Skirgaila, was unable to manage the internal opposition and so, once again made peace with Vytautas in 1392. at same year Vytautas became the actual leader of Lithuania, and o6 cially assumed this position in 1401. Wishing to reinforce Lithuania’s supremacy in the East – in the Ruzen and Tatars’ lands, Vytautas and the Order agreed on the Treaty of Salynas. According to this agreement, Vytautas relinquished Samogitia as far as Nevėžis and Kaunas as far as Rumšiškės to the Order.

  • The Lithuanian Nobility in the Late- Fourteenth and Fifteenth Centuries: Composition and Structure
    LITHUANIAN HISTORICAL STUDIES 7 2002 ISSN 1392-2343 pp. 1–22 THE LITHUANIAN NOBILITY IN THE LATE- FOURTEENTH AND FIFTEENTH CENTURIES: COMPOSITION AND STRUCTURE RIMVYDAS PETRAUSKAS ABSTRACT This paper presents a critical review of the historiographically dominant theory stating that the upper layer of the Lithuanian nobility formed its independent power only around the middle of the fifteenth century. The extant sources shed little light on the role of the nobility in the political processes of the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries. A complex of sources, more fully reflecting the specifics of the country, appeared only after the arrival of writing in Lithuania at the end of the fourteenth century. It was only in this period that the place of the nobles in the system of government became evident. Therefore, it is possible to speak about a distorted perspective, suggested by the early records. The paper presents a definition of the nobility and an analysis of the origin, composition and structure of the Lithuanian ruling élite in the late fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. Consequently it is possible to speak about the prerequisites of the rule of this social group and the duality of the power of the grand duke and the nobility. Two principal tendencies of the development of the Lithuanian nobility in the fifteenth century – personal continuity and internal transformation (family structure) – are distinguished. In Lithuanian historical models the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries have acquired the image of the epoch of ‘ducal Lithuania’. This was a period of the rule of the grand dukes Gediminas, Algirdas, Kęstutis, Jogaila and Vytautas.

Reviewed by Vejas Gabriel Liulevicius (Department of History, University of Tennessee ) Published on H-Russia (June, 2001) Soviet Decolonization in the Baltics Soviet Decolonization in the Baltics Ten years have now passed since the dramatic events in the Baltic Republics which led to their regained independence. The whole point of the popular movements organized in Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia was to underline for the world that these states were not, and never had been, legally parts of the Soviet Union (having been forcibly occupied in 1940). Readers of H-Russia will nonetheless find the memoir of a leading Baltic politician interesting for the insights it offers into the process of decolonization and resistance, which marked the last stages of the Soviet Union's decomposition in the late 1980s and early 1990s. With the distance that a decade allows, one of the main players in these political upheavals offers his memories and assessments of the momentous events that marked the road to full independence. Vytautas Landsbergis, as the leader of the Lithuanian popular independence movement Sajudis and later Chairman of the Lithuanian parliament, steered that republic towards its declaration of the restoration of independence on March 11, 1990. In the following months, he led efforts to find international recognition for this political act, while dealing at the same time with Gorbachev's imposition of economic blockade on the country, the cool reaction of the Western diplomatic establishment, and an unsettled society at home.

  • ALGIRDAS (Olgierd), Grand Duke of Lithuania (1345-77), Son of \Gedin\Inas, Father of \]Ogaua and '[^Vitrigaila
    PRIESTS. BISHOPS. 15 DUKES; ALGIRDAS (Olgierd), Grand Duke of Lithuania (1345-77), son of \Gedin\inas, father of \]ogaUa and '[^vitrigaila. He shared power with his brother Kfstutis: Vilnius and the eastern part of the country was Algirdas' domain, and Kfstutis reigned in Trakai, Samogitia and other western regions. Thus Algirdas was more concerned about relations with Russian duchies, while Kfstutis dealt with the Teutonic Order. Having lived an adventurous life, Kfstutis, a zealous supporter of pagan Lithuania, called "a heathen knight", enjoyed greater popularity than his brother. However, Algirdas was a more outstanding politician, thus in Algirdas' lifetime Kfstutis occupied only second place in the state. Q I: CtAlO It is known that in the year of Gediminas' death, Algirdas ruled Vitebsk and Krevo. His two wives - princess Maria of Vitebsk and prin• Grand Duke Algirdas of cess \luUanua of Tver - were Russian Orthodox. The majority of his Lilhuania. Artist J. Ozifblowski children adhered to the Russian Orthodox faith, but those who were born in Vilnius remained pagan, like their father. Algirdas annexed Kiev and many other Eastern Slavonic regions to Lithuania, waged war against the Grand Duke of Moscow Dmitry Donskoi and marched as far as the Kremlin. He founded an independ• ent Lithuanian Orthodox metropoly with the centre in Kiev. He defeated the Tartars at the Battle of Blue Waters (1363), participated in the strug• gle against the Teutonic knights with a demand to cede to Lithuania almost all of the ancient Prussian lands along with Konigsberg and a large part of Livonia. In Algirdas' times Lithuania became the largest and most likely strongest Central Eastern European power.

[The Lithuanian State in the Twelfth-Eighteenth Centuries] In order to gather specialists in the social and political history of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania together and to assess their poten­ tial, a large international conference on the Lithuanian State in the Twelfth-Eighteenth Centuries was held at the Lithuanian Institute of History in Vilnius on 7-10 November 1995. The conference coincided symbolically with two relevant dates in Lithuanian history: 200 years have passed since the collapse of the Polish - Lithuanian Common­ wealth - and hence, of the independent Grand Duchy of Lithuania alike; and the thousandth anniversary of the written record of Lithuania's name, the entry for 1009 in the Quedlinburg Annals. Forty one papers were presented by scholars and students during the confer­ ence. The main result of this collective work is that 29 papers have been published in a collection under the same title as the conference. This volume comprises three parts devoted to a variety of issues: I. Power and society; II. Problems of statehood and policy direction; III. The army and warfare. The contents of the book cover Lithuanian hist01y from the pre-state formation period to the collapse of the GDL. Articles deal with the development of social structures as well as state institutions; there were attempts to analyse such questions as the in­ teraction of society and power, to discuss the statehood problems and several relevant events of political and state life, to reveal the ideo­ logical basics of the state life and to consider the matter of warfare as well.

Abstract The actualization of the epoch and personality of the King of Poland and the Grand Duke of Lithuania Stefan Batory took place in modern Belarus on the wave of growing scientific and public interest in the political history of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and the Polish- Lithuanian Commonwealth, neglected in Soviet times. The historical memory of him is most firmly established in theUMCS Grodno region and has a 100-year tradition. The article substantiates the reason for this phenomenon – first of all, the city of Grodno owes its worthy status of being a royal city as well as its high historical image to Batory. The ‘places of memory’ left by Batory in Grodno and their European significance are shown: the Old Castle is the only remaining royal castle in Belarus (except the New Castle), in the 1930s it was supposed to be transformed into the ‘Wawel over the Neman’, an analogue of Krakow Wawel; ‘Batoryevka’, known in the history of European medicine (the resting site of the body of Batory); the Vytautas Fara, the most famous Belarusian church destroyed by the communist authorities, which became a symbol of Grodno.
