Improving the Downwind Sail Design Process by Means of a Novel FSI Approach

2021

The process of designing a sail can be a challenging task because of the difficulties in predicting the real aerodynamic performance. This is especially true in the case of downwind sails, where the evaluation of the real shapes and aerodynamic forces can be very complex because of turbulent and detached flows and the high-deformable behavior of structures. Of course, numerical methods are very useful and reliable tools to investigate sail performances, and their use, also as a result of the exponential growth of computational resources at a very low cost, is spreading more and more, even in not highly competitive fields. This paper presents a new methodology to support sail designers in ev…

Vienošanās kriminālprocesā

2019

Bakalaura darba “Vienošanās kriminālprocesā” aktualitāte ir vienošanās procesa piemērošanas attīstība. Šobrīd vienošanās procesa piemērošana ir pieaugusi par 74% no visām uz tiesu nosūtītajām lietām. Tomēr pastāv problemātika attiecībā uz vienošanās procesa regulējumu. Tāpēc ir nepieciešams noskaidrot šobrīd esošos regulējuma trūkumus un sniegt priekšlikumus, lai šos trūkumus novērstu. Mērķis bija atklāt vienošanās procesa noregulējuma trūkumus un sniegt priekšlikumus trūkumu novēršanai un noregulējuma uzlabošanai. Darbā veicamie uzdevumi bija Latvijas tiesu prakses izpēte, prokuratūras darba rezultātu kā statistikas datu analīze, Latvijas un Igaunijas normatīvo aktu izpēte un salīdzināšana…

Timbral Qualities of Semantic Structures of Music.

2010

The rapid expansion of social media in music has provided the field with impressive datasets that offer insights into the semantic structures underlying everyday uses and classification of music. We hypothesize that the organization of these structures are rather directly linked with the ”qualia” of the music as sound. To explore the ways in which these structures are connected with the qualities of sounds, a semantic space was extracted from a large collection of musical tags with latent semantic and cluster analysis. The perceptual and musical properties of 19 clusters were investigated by a similarity rating task that used spliced musical excerpts representing each cluster. The resulting…

Combined effect of low-molecular-weight organic acids and creosote on phosphatase activities in sandy soil

2018

This paper assesses the impact of creosote and low-molecular-weight organic acids (LMWOAs) on the activity of acid phosphomonoesterase, alkaline phosphomonoesterase, phosphotriesterase, and inorganic pyrophosphatase in soil. The experiment was carried out on loamy sand samples with organic carbon content of 8.71 g · kg -1 , with the following variable factors: dosages of creosote: 0, 0.5%, and 2.5%; type of LMWOAs: oxalic acid, tartaric acid, and citric acid in the amount of 50 mmol · kg -1 of soil; days of experiment: 1, 7, 14, 28, 56, 112. Obtained results showed that contamination with creosote caused decrease in the activity of soil phosphatases. The observed effect did not always incre…
