The Effect of Selected Factors on the Strength of Stitches of Upholstery Faux Leather
(MDPI AG (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute-MDPI), 2022)With their properties, upholstery covering materials significantly influence the quality of upholstered products. These materials form the surface layer of upholstered furniture; any damage to this material is immediately ... -
The effect of slow-release fertilizers on the soil environment of spread windrows in the Krušné Hory Mts.
(Česká akademie zemědělských věd, 2017)The current revitalization of forest ecosystems in the Krušne Hory Mts. is carried out through: (i) spreading line windrows, (ii) chemical amelioration. The aim of this research consisted in: (i) assessing basic pedochemical ... -
Effect of thinning and reduced throughfall in young coppice dominated by Quercus petraea (Matt.) Liebl. and Carpinus betulus L
(Österreichischer Agrarverlag GmbH, 2018)The effects of thinning and reduced throughfall on soil moisture and the diameter and height increments of sessile oak and European hornbeam sprouts were studied in the southeastern part of the Czech Republic. Thinning was ... -
Effects of a Trench as a Moisture Harvesting Structure on the Biomass Production and Growth of Trees Planted to Restore Degraded Land, Southern Ethiopia
(MDPI AG (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute-MDPI), 2020)Knowledge about the biomass productivity of trees planted in a rainwater harvesting structure, i.e., a trench (T), relative to a normal pit (P) on degraded land is scarce. The objective of this research paper is to compare ... -
Effects of Wood Particles from Deadwood on the Properties and Formaldehyde Emission of Particleboards
(MDPI AG (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute-MDPI), 2022)The volume of deadwood increases annually because of changes in environmental, climatic, and hydrological conditions. On the other hand, during the last decade, manufacturers of wood-based boards have been facing an acute ... -
Efficiency of Harvester with the Debarking Head at Logging in Spruce Stands Affected by Bark Beetle Outbreak
(MDPI AG (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute-MDPI), 2021)This paper deals with the use of debarking modifications of the conventional harvester head in the conditions of felling due to bark beetle calamity. For this purpose, a time study was established, in which the conventional ... -
Efficiency of pitfall traps and snap traps in small terrestrial mammals depends on their diet composition
(Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TÜBİTAK), 2019)We compared the monitoring of small terrestrial mammals among forest stands by pitfalls and snap traps. The captures took place in the Czech Republic in the Moravskoslezske Beskydy Mts. (2007-2012) on 16 plots in adult ... -
Elasto-plastic material model of oak at two moisture content levels
(Walter de Gruyter GmbH, 2022)The mechanical properties of wood show a very high dependence on the moisture content (MC). A consideration of MC in numerical simulations increases the applicability of such prediction with respect to application and ... -
Environmental Effects among Differently Located and Fertile Sites on Forest Basal-Area Increment in Temperate Zone
(MDPI AG (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute-MDPI), 2022)Environmental properties differently influence the growth of forest tree species. The antagonistic effects of variable environmental properties classify the forest response according to various tree compositions among ... -
