High Lipid Content of Prey Fish and n−3 PUFA Peroxidation Impair the Thiamine Status of Feeding-Migrating Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) and Is Reflec…
2022
Signs of impaired thiamine (vitamin B1) status in feeding-migrating Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) were studied in three Baltic Sea areas, which differ in the proportion and nutritional composition of prey fish sprat (Sprattus sprattus) and herring (Clupea harengus). The concentration of n−3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n−3 PUFAs) increased in salmon with dietary lipids and n−3 PUFAs, and the hepatic peroxidation product malondialdehyde (MDA) concentration increased exponentially with increasing n−3 PUFA and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6n−3) concentration, whereas hepatic total thiamine concentration, a sensitive indicator of thiamine status, decreased with th…
Scattering and point spectra for elliptic systems in domains with cylindrical ends
2004
Viktor Kalvinen tieteellisen laskennan alaan kuuluva väitöskirjatutkimus käsittelee elliptisiä reuna-arvotehtäviä sylinteripäisissä alueissa. Sylinteripäinen alue mallitetaan työssä eräänlaisena aaltoputkena, johon tulee ja josta lähtee erilaisia aaltoja. Näiden aaltojen amplitudi voi kasvaa eksponentiaalisesti kohti ääretöntä. Kalvine on kehittänyt tutkimuksessaan ns. augmentoidun sirontamatriisin, joka perinteisiin sirontamatriiseihin verrattuna kykenee käsittelemään myös amplitudiltaan eksponentiaalisesti muuttuvia aaltoja. Työssä esitellään myös numeerinen menetelmä kyseisen sirontamatriisin laskemiseksi. In the thesis we consider dissipative elliptic boundary value problems in domains …
Two examples related to conical energies
2022
In a recent article we introduced and studied conical energies. We used them to prove three results: a characterization of rectifiable measures, a characterization of sets with big pieces of Lipschitz graphs, and a sufficient condition for boundedness of nice singular integral operators. In this note we give two examples related to sharpness of these results. One of them is due to Joyce and M\"{o}rters, the other is new and could be of independent interest as an example of a relatively ugly set containing big pieces of Lipschitz graphs.

Cuarto Gobierno socialista. 7 de julio de 1988. Tras el 31 congreso federal del PSOE, Felipe González remodelaría el Gobierno el 7 de julio de 1988. Entrarían dos mujeres: Rosa Conde (Portavoz) y Matilde Fernández (Asuntos Sociales), a pesar de que el congreso del PSOE había acordado la presencia de un 25% de mujeres en los cargos orgánicos e institucionales, si bien se incorporarían muchas en los segundos y terceros escalones del Gobierno. Los nuevos ministros serian: Enrique Múgica Herzog (Justicia), Jorge Semprún (Cultura), Javier Solana (Educación y Ciencia), Juan Claudio Aranzadi (Industria y Comercio), José Barrionuevo (pasaba de Interior a Transporte, Turismo y Comunicaciones), y el …
Matkailun mobiilipalveluiden käyttöaikomukseen vaikuttavat tekijät : case Rautalammin ja Konneveden matkailualue
2016
Matkailun mobiilipalveluita on kehitetty moniin eri käyttötarkoituksiin ja nii-den pyrkimyksenä onkin tehdä matkailusta helpompaa ja mukavampaa mat-kailijalle. Käyttäjillä on kuitenkin paljon erilaisia vaatimuksia ja tarpeita, jotka vaikuttavat matkailijoiden ominaisuuksien lisäksi aikomukseen käyttää matkailun mobiilipalveluita. Toisekseen matkailijat uskovat mobiilipalveluiden käytöstä aiheutuvan useita erilaisia hyötyjä, jotka vaikuttavat myös aikomukseen käyttää palveluita. Tässä tutkimuksessa keskitytään Rautalammin ja Konneveden matkailualueeseen, jonne kehitellään uusia digitaalisia palveluita virkistämään matkailua. Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli saada selville, millaisia vaati…
Perception-based pricing strategies for mobile services in customer marketing context
2004
Traditional pricing research has focused on analysing price setting procedures and cost or competition based pricing strategies. Customer- or perception-oriented pricing strategies have been left on little attention among business practitioners and academics. The need for development and investigation of these new pricing strategies has occurred after the emergence of new electronic and mobile services; traditional pricing strategies have resulted unsatisfactory results. With this study we have concentrated on elucidating the unobserved fields of perception-based pricing in mobile services business. The focal point of the study consists of analyses of the customers’ price perceptions of mob…
Implicit regulation for automotive variators
2001
A well-known practice uses mechanical variators to realize the so-called continuously variable transmissions (CVTs) for automotive application. A remarkable problem for one of the most used CVTs is given by the hydraulic control of the axial thrust on the half-pulleys that is necessary for torque transmission. It involves a heavy decrease in transmission efficiency. In the present paper, the possible production of the required axial thrust by a simple spring to eliminate hydraulic losses is analysed. It is shown that the power capacity of such a regulated variator is near to the maximum possible, and the belt torque loss is always considerably lower than the sum of the belt and pump losses…
How Relevant Are Risk Perceptions, Effort, and Performance Expectancy in Mobile Banking Adoption?
2018
This article provides a comprehensive overview of the adoption process using evidence from m-banking adoption in Pakistan. A survey design was used and 189 responses were received from across Pakistan and analyzed using Smart PLS application. Findings suggest that research on the effect of risk in the adoption process remains inconclusive. Contrarily, consumers have overcome many fears due to the usefulness, indispensability, high security features, and effort expended in the use of financial services delivered through m-banking. Perceived risk's (PR) direct influence was found to be generally weak. However, PR plays a major role in the pre-adoption process because it's weak and direct inhi…

The influence of bacteria-dominated diets on Daphnia magna somatic growth, reproduction, and lipid composition
2012
We explored how dietary bacteria affect the life history traits and biochemical composition of Daphnia magna, using three bacteria taxa with very different lipid composition. Our objectives were to (1) examine whether and how bacteria-dominated diets affect Daphnia survival, growth, and fecundity, (2) see whether bacteria-specific fatty acid (FA) biomarkers accrued in Daphnia lipids, and (3) explore the quantitative relationship between bacteria availability in Daphnia diets and the amounts of bacterial FA in their lipids. Daphnia were fed monospecific and mixed diets of heterotrophic (Micrococcus luteus) or methanotrophic bacteria (Methylomonas methanica and Methylosinus trichosporium) and…
