Also some researchers from the AdMaS Center participated in the lessons.

In the course of the training, the center equipment was used – the KRAB, measuring trolley, which is used to measure the geometrical parameters of the track (eg track gauge, elevation, mixture and track height). The students also took part in an excursion to the Dlouhé Stráně pumped-storage hydroelectric power station where diagnostics of the tank shell condition was underway. Prof. Kudrna was able to acquaint students with the details regarding the construction of the tank shell and the asphalt mixes used here.
