The project is focused on the innovation and quality improvement of the course Technology and management of the postal operation in the MEKPS field of study and the course Logistics I in the DMML field of study, in which students will have the opportunity to learn about the practical application and technical solution of selected system for the management, collection and evaluation of obtained data. The prerequisites for the construction of the system include purchase of the mobile RFID reader and necessary accessories. Its advantage is mobility during data acquisition, as well as the possibility of their autonomous evaluation, or networking with other systems that are used for data analysis. The innovation will contribute to the increase of professional level of students who will take part in this subject, especially in terms of increased knowledge related to technological solutions of systems for management of postal operation and the method of data processing using mobile devices.
The project is focused on innovation and improvement of the subject Mechanization and automation of postal services, under which students will have the opportunity to meet with the practical application of a particular technical solution of chosen technology of automatic identification. The emphasis will be placed on increasing of the level of expertise in the field, especially in terms of technical and technological solutions, basic physical principles of operation and the possibility of real use in the postal service.
The aim of the project is to extend the use of Experimental Vehicle for use in teaching. This is an extension to the hydraulic control of an existing device that is controlled mechanically. The proposed device reduces the adhesion force on the wheels of the car. The aim is to use the vehicle's behavioral findings when changing the adhesion force.
Organisation of the Workshop: GPR Road Show Pardubice - Introduction to Ground Penetrating Radar and its applications in civil engineering
Project nondestructive diagnostics is focused of the transport structures. Innovation of the practical part dealing with diagnostics, repairs and reconstruction of transport structures. Innovation in teaching soil mechanics, steel bridges, design and build of road construction, theory of structures reliability, concrete Structures and building materials.

In the future there will be hybrid electric-diesel locomotives. We are developing a hybrid locomotive and improving its energy management, using a system already popular in electric cars, reusing the kinetic energy generated from braking.

Another way to reduce fuel consumption in particular is the operation of an internal combustion engine in optimal mode with minimum fuel consumption, when total emissions also minimizes. Output of the project will be the functional samples of hybrid locomotive and its subsystems, including control system and accumulator system.

The objective is
-- to develop a model with the ability to predict the influence of water on adhesion between the wheel and rail, validated through laboratory testing,
-- to better understand the influence of the physical and chemical properties of water in the contact patch on the interaction between wheel and rail.

The overall aim of the S-CODE project is to investigate, develop and initially demonstrate radically new concepts for switches and crossings
that have the potential to lead to increases in capacity, reliability and safety while reducing investment and operating costs.
