Transformējamu mēbeļu izmantošana interjera dizaina izveidē
2015
Diplomdarbs “Trasformējamu mēbeļu izmantošana interjera dizaina izveidē” ir pētījums par mēbeļu multifunkcionālo nozīmi un to rašanās iemesliem vēsturiskajā un mūsdienu periodā. Darba teorētiskajā daļā ir apskats par salokāmu un pārveidojamu mēbeļu pielietojuma pirmsākumiem un to attīstības gaitu. Tiek arī apskatīta militārās jomas ietekme transformējamu mēbeļu izstrādē, kā arī to izmantošanu sabiedriskās un privātās telpas interjera izveidē. Teorētiskajā daļā arī iekļautas Latvijas un citu valstu dizaineru radītās transformējamās mēbeles. Empīriskā daļa sevī ietver 12 Latvijas un 3 citu valstu veikalus, kuros, pēc iepriekš izstrādāta plāna, tiek pētīta transformējamu mēbeļu izmantošana int…
Comparison of tritium measurement techniques for a laser cleaned JET tile
2014
Abstract Over the last 7–8 years, two quantitative analyzing methods—accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) and full combustion (FC) followed by scintillation detection have been applied for determining the tritium activity concentrations in JET divertor tiles. These methods have two main differences – the range of detection and the spatial resolution – and are thus complementary. However, these differences can also complicate the comparison of the two techniques for typical JET divertor samples. Therefore a cross comparison exercise for tritium measurements was performed between the two methods using specially produced identical standard samples. The cross comparison measurements were perform…
GPR and magnetic survey at the Kamarina archaeological site (Sicily, Italy) supported by aerial photo-graphic and thermographic data
2017
Abstract – Multidisciplinary geophysical investigations have been carried out in a small area of the Greek archaeological site of Kamarina, in southern Sicily, in order to support some hypotheses, derived from historical and archaeological bases. After an aerial photographic and thermographic survey, a small area near to the Agora has been considered for magnetometric and GPR investigations. Obtained results show a good correlation and allow to highlight some structures oriented in agreement with the uncovered remains. The use of integrated geophysical techniques allowed a more robust interpretation of the detected anomalies in order to better address the choices for new excavations.
Like a Wunderkammer
2016
In the crossing between cardus and decumanus we can easily sum up the settlement of Piacenza; upon this scheme we can overlap a complexity made up of the several historical layers leading to the modern urban shape. This complexity can be seen as a sequence of limits, beyond which the urban fabric totally changes: these are the Po line, the XIX century walls, the highway. The layering of the urban core of Piacenza can be seen like an overcrossing of consecutive boundaries: pointing out these joint-areas, the project develops architectural devices to reveal unusual views and paths, throughout an unbroken ground design from south to north, using typical materials and plants. As thought in a Wu…
Aptiekā pieejamie bezrecepšu medikamenti urīnizvadsistēmas traucējumu ārstēšanai un uztura bagātinātāji urīnizvadsistēmas veselības atbalstīšanai sie…
2022
Vesela urīnizvadsistēma kopumā ir viens no svarīgākajiem priekšnoteikumiem cilvēka normālai eksistencei. Lai uzturētu savu veselību, var palīdzēt uztura bagātinātāji, kas organismam palīdzēs papildināt iztrūkstošās uzturvielas. Bakalaura darba mērķis ir izpētīt aptiekā pieejamas bezrecepšu medikamentus un uztura bagātinātājus, kuri ir paredzēti urīnizvadsistēmas traucējumu ārstēšanai vai veselības atbalstīšanai sievietēm, noskaidrot, vai uztura bagātinātāju un bezrecepšu medikamentu lietošana ir pamatota, balstīta uz speciālistu ieteikumiem un zinātniskajā literatūrā apstiprinātām farmakoloģiskām īpašībām.. Pētījuma rezultāti liecina, ka sievietes no 19 – 40 gadiem visbiežāk ir pakļautas ur…
What drives customer satisfaction and well-being in ridesharing? : A developing country perspective
2019
This study examines ridesharing services from the customer perspective in a developing country context and investigates two significant post-adoption and marketing consequences: satisfaction and well-being. Using a purposeful sampling technique, six semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted in Sindh province, Pakistan. Among the major findings are that customers’ awareness of the services and how to use the mobile application, convenience of use, high perceived value, the quality of information available in the ridesharing mobile app, real-time location services, and an effective complaint resolution mechanism promote customer satisfaction and well-being. This study includes implic…
“Some Women Are Born Fighters”: Discursive Constructions of a Fighter’s Identity by Female Finnish Judo Athletes
2017
Martial arts and combat sports have been traditionally associated with masculinity, and a range of contradictory meanings have been attached to women’s engagement and experiences. The present study draws on cultural praxis and feminist poststructuralist frameworks to explore how female martial artists are subjectified to dominant cultural discourses surrounding fighting and competition. Interviews with nine female judoka (judo athletes) were gathered in Finland and analyzed using Foucauldian Discourse Analysis (FDA). The FDA revealed that in female judoka talk, judo was constructed as a sport for all, but also as a male domain and a manly sport with fighting and competition as innate mascul…
Economic moralities in self-organised alternative economies : the Finnish cases of ridesharing and timebanking
2020
PurposeThis paper explores economic moralities in self-organised alternative economies and argues that the diverse economies approach is particularly useful in elaborating the self-understandings of such economic communities. The analysis focuses on two types of alternative economies in Finland: ridesharing and timebanking.Design/methodology/approachThrough qualitative data, the paper looks into moments of negotiation where economic moralities of self-organised alternative economies are explicitly debated. The main research data consists of social media conversations, supplemented by a member survey for the participants of the studied timebank. The data are analysed through theory-guided qu…
Consolidated challenge to social demand for resilient platforms : Lessons from Uber's global expansion
2017
Many in the industry see the ride-sharing company Uber as the significant advancement through information and communication technology (ICT) particularly of the digital service platform and sharing economy. Uber has been exploring the new frontier of the ICT-driven disruptive business model (IDBM) and succeeded in its global expansion to over 479 cities in more than 75 countries worldwide in June of 2016. Such rapid expansion provides constructive insights regarding the significance of IDBM, not only in transportation but also in almost all other business fields. While at the same time Uber's legal battles in some cities around the world raise a serious question regarding the rationale of I…
Sociālās kampaņas "Suns meklē mājas" efektivitātes novērtējums
2015
Bakalaura darba nosaukums ir Sociālās kampaņas “Suns meklē mājas” efektivitātes novērtējums. Pētījuma problēmjautājums - vai sociālā kampaņa ir bijusi efektīva - vai cilvēki pamanīja šo kampaņu, kādas ir viņu emocijas, attieksme un uzvedība. Bakalaura darba teorija sastāv no 4 nodaļām – sociālais mārketings, sociālā reklāma, reklāmas efektivitātes dimensijas un dzīvnieku ētika kā sociālās kampaņas saturs. Empīriskajā daļā tika izmantotas 3 pētniecības metodes – daļēji strukturētā intervija, satura analīze un aptauja. Izstrādājot pētījumu, galvenais secinājums ir tāds, ka kampaņa bija efektīva, cilvēkiem sociālā kampaņa patika, tā izraisīja, galvenokārt pozitīvas emocijas.
