Comment Hollywood figure l’intériorité dans les films « hollywoodiens » de David Lynch, Lost Highway (1997), Mulholland Dr. (2001) et Inland Empire (…
2011
The article takes Zachary Baqué's study of Los Angeles in the films of David Lynch as a starting point to explore David Lynch's Hollywood movies. The author contends that the films offer more than a satirical representation of a corrupt, unhealthy system which threatens dreams and artistic creativity, or a parodic play on Hollywood genre and narrative conventions. Rather, Hollywood is a character, a presence, revealed as both horizontal and vertical, physical and abstract, evoking the city, the studio system, cinema and dreams, so that the satire, the visual motifs and clichés and the topography of Hollywood, and the references to Hollywood films, constitute a complex fabric of subjectivity…
Losandželosa Reimonda Čandlera romānā “Augstais logs” un Maikla Konelija romānā ''Piliens''
2018
Šis maģistra darbs pēta Losandželosas attēlojumu divos skarbās literatūras žanra romānos. Skarbās literatūras žanrs un lokācijas aspekts ir tēmas, kuram netiek pievērsts pietiekami daudz akadēmiskās uzmanības literatūrzinātnē. Tika analizēti divi literārie darbi – Reimonda Čandlera 1942. gada romāns “Augstais Logs” un Maikla Konelija 2011. gada romāns “Piliens”. Par maģistra darba galveno metodoloģisko ietvaru tika izvēlēta Džeisona Finča “Dziļa lokācijas kritika”. Romānu lokācijas analīze pauda daudz ieskatu Losandželosas sociālās, ģeogrāfiskās un politiskās realitātēs.

Evaluating the effect of mineralogy and mechanical stability of recycled excavation materials by Los Angeles and micro-Deval test
2021
This paper presents the findings of the mechanical performance of recycled excavation materials (REM). The aim was to document the stable performance of REM and to suggest its suitability for unbound applications. Test operations were performed at different schedules with the Los Angeles (LA) and micro-Deval (MD) test machine. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis was performed to examine the effect of mineralogy on the performance of REM. The results showed that REM showed consistent LA performance, but significant variations were observed in MD values. XRD results showed that up to 20% of chlorite and mica minerals had no influence on the LA performance of REM.
Review of the relationship between aggregates geology and Los Angeles and micro-Deval tests
2021
Rock aggregates constitute the enormous volume of inert construction material used around the globe. The petrologic description as igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic types establishes the intrinsic formation pattern of the parent rock. The engineering properties of these rocks vary due to the differences in the transformation process (e.g. hydrothermal deposits) and weathering effect. The two most common mechanical tests used to investigate the performance of aggregates are the Los Angeles (LA) and micro-Deval (MD) tests. This study reviewed the geological parameters (including mineralogy, grain and crystal size, grain shape, and porosity) and the relationship to Los Angeles and micro-De…

Recycled aggregates derived from excavation materials — mechanical performance and identification of weak minerals
2022
AbstractThe present study investigates the mechanical performance of recycled aggregates derived from excavation materials (REM). REM is blended with different quantities of recycled phyllite materials (RPM) and is investigated by Los Angeles (LA) and micro-Deval (MD) tests. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and acid solubility test are performed on the pulverized fractions < 1.6 mm obtained from the LA and MD tests to assess the respective degree of fragmentation and wear of mineral components. The results of the materials in unblended conditions showed considerable difference between MD performance while similar performance was found for LA. Furthermore, about 40% of RPM was sufficient to blend …
