All-solid-state batteries are one of the key technologies for future energy storage and the transition to a climate-neutral society. They offer improved safety, stability, and a broader operating temperature range compared to conventional batteries with liquid electrolyte. Perovskite Li0.33La0.56 0.11TiO3 (LLTO) is recognized as one of the most promising solid …

The sputtering yield, the spatial distribution of the sputtered atoms, the energy distribution and the average energy of the sputtered atoms are important for numerous deposition techniques, as they determine the microstructure and the physical properties of the thin films. Using SRIM (Stopping and Range of Ions in Matter) simulations, …

The pursuit of autonomous robot learning is aimed at enabling robots to seamlessly integrate into our daily lives, enhancing our efficiency and convenience. On the other hand, in the industrial sector, autonomous robot learning plays a vital role in keeping up with the rapidly evolving market demands. As products and …

Plasma facing components (PFC) in fusion devices are exposed to plasma. Plasma-wall interaction processes are important as they impose a series of constraints on the components. The lifetime of the PFCs is dominantly determined by two processes: erosion and fuel retention. At the first wall the erosion is caused by …

Fusion technology has a great potential to safely provide an inexhaustible quantity of electricity without producing greenhouse gases and minimal hazardous waste compared to conventional energy sources, such as nuclear power plants. For materials intended for fusion plasma-facing applications, the essential properties are structural stability at elevated temperature, adequate thermal …

This thesis presents the simulation of approximated Gaussian process autoregressive models. Gaussian process models are a Bayesian nonparametric regression method, the main advantage of which is the quantification of uncertainty in closed-form. However, the closedform solution for the marginal likelihood results in a cubic computational complexity with respect to the …

This thesis focuses on the fate of chosen antidepressants in the environment. Studied compounds belong to the class of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors. Reportedly they do not completely mineralize by existing water treatment processes and their residues cause unwanted toxic effects in aquatic organisms. However, to date, insufficient information has …

Buildings are complex systems as external factors are linked to, and have an effect on the characteristics of a building. In this dissertation, the focus is on the connection between external factors and the building’s characteristics, which have an impact on the living conditions, durability and energy efficiency of a …

In this thesis we demonstrate a new, simple, and ecient method for the solid-state synthesis of oxides with a complex chemical composition. We modify the traditional solidstate synthesis method, which is used in the majority of ceramics laboratories around the world, in order to prepare multi-metallic oxide powders from classic …

In this doctoral thesis, radio signal propagation in special environments is discussed. The primary focus is on the development of a path loss model for radio signal propagation in long road tunnels and underground passageways, which allows a rather precise calculation of radio signal path loss and, consequently, a quick …
