The Roadmap to Finnish Open Science and Research
2015
Finland published its open science roadmap at the end of November 2014. This roadmap is based on the work of the Open Science and Research Initiative (ATT), a cross-administrative initiative established by the Ministry of Education and Culture. The goal of this initiative is to promote open science and availability of information. Exploration of recent developments of open access in the EU shows that Finland is not among the leading countries in the EU. This paper focuses on the practical action plan of this roadmap and describes how the weakest part of Finnish open science, green open access is to be lifted at international top level. peerReviewed
Nestriktās matemātikas morfoloģijas operatori: teorijas pamati un operatoru realizācija konkrētiem konjuktoru-implikatoru pāriem
2021
Maģistra darbā apskatīti matemātiskās morfoloģijas pamatoperatoru - dilācija, erozija, atvēršana, slēgšana - paplašinājumi nestriktās kopās. Vispārīga nestrikta morfoloģijas operatora definīcija realizēta konkrētiem konjunktoru-implikātoru pāriem. Operatoru realizācijā par konjunktoriem izvēlētas minimuma, reizinājuma un Lukasieviča t-normas un par implikatoriem - tām atbilstošie rezidiji un Klīnī-Dinesa implikācija. Konkrētie konjunktoru-implikatoru pāriem iegūtie operatori ilustrēti ar vizuāliem piemēriem, to realizācijai izstrādāta arī lietojumprogramma. Veikta iegūto rezultātu analīze.
Airflow and aerosol transport modeling with applications to Covid-19 aerosol reduction indoors
2022
Pēdējo pāris gadu laikā Covid-19 infekcijas slimība ir izraisījusi lielu kaitējumu cilvēkiem visā pasaulē, kas ir licis zinātniskajai kopienai apsvērt pieejas infekcijas mazināšanai, tostarp skaitliskās modelēšanas pieejas. Šī darba mērķis ir modelēt Covid-19 aerosola pārnesi un tā samazināšanu iekštelpās. Skaitliskās hidrodinamikas risināšanai tiek izmantota Reinoldsa vidējotā Navjē Stoksa modelēšanas pieeja kopā ar turbulentās difūzijas modeli aerosola pārnesei. Darbs sākas ar konkrētas telpas gaisa plūsmas modelēšanu un skaitlisko aprēķina parametru izpēti. Nākamajā daļā tiek izveidots gaisa attīrīšanas iekārtas matemātiskais modelis, kas tiek skaitliski ieviests un pārbaudīts izmantojot…
GES: pre-main-sequence clusters [Fe/H]
2017
The radial metallicity distribution in the Galactic thin disc represents a crucial constraint for modelling disc formation and evolution. Open clusters allow us to derive both the radial metallicity distribution and its evolution over time. In this paper we perform the first investigation of the present-day radial metallicity distribution based on [Fe/H] determinations in late type members of pre-main-sequence clusters. Because of their youth, these clusters are therefore essential for tracing the current inter-stellar medium metallicity. We used the products of the Gaia-ESO Survey analysis of 12 young regions (age<100Myr), covering Galactocentric distances from 6.67 to 8.70kpc. For the fir…
Gaia-ESO Survey. Parameters for cluster members
2016
The nature of the metallicity gradient inside the solar circle (R_GC_<8kpc) is poorly understood, but studies of Cepheids and a small sample of open clusters suggest that it steepens in the inner disk. We investigate the metallicity gradient of the inner disk using a sample of inner disk open clusters that is three times larger than has previously been studied in the literature to better characterize the gradient in this part of the disk. We used the Gaia-ESO Survey (GES) [Fe/H] values and stellar parameters for stars in 12 open clusters in the inner disk from GES-UVES data. Cluster mean [Fe/H] values were determined based on a membership analysis for each cluster. Where necessary, distance…
Antibodies to alpha B-crystallin, vimentin, and heat shock protein 70 in aqueous humor of patients with normal tension glaucoma and IgG antibody patt…
2007
To show the existence of IgG antibodies against retinal antigens in aqueous humor of normal tension glaucoma patients.Forty-two patients were included in this study. Aqueous humor was collected from control subjects (CO; n = 21) and patients with normal tension glaucoma (NTG; n = 21). Western blot methods against bovine retinal antigens were used to detect the IgG antibody patterns. The complex antibody repertoires were analyzed by multivariate statistical techniques. Mass spectrometry was used to identify the most important antigens.Very complex IgG antibody patterns against retinal antigens were found in all analyzed aqueous humor samples. Our multivariate approach could quantify differen…
Evaluation of presumptive biomarkers of oxidative stress, immune response and apoptosis in primary open-angle glaucoma.
2013
There is growing interest on the correlation among oxidative stress, inflammation, apoptosis and primary open-angle glaucoma initiation and progression. Reactive oxygen species are formed in the eyes following a wide variety of stressors, and are largely implicated in glaucoma pathogenesis. Immune-inflammatory response mediators have recently become a target of ophthalmologic concern, including glaucoma. Much attention has been derived to the role of specific pro and anti-apoptotic molecules in glaucoma. This article reviews the early evidence suggesting that reactive oxygen species, immune inflammatory response mediators, and apoptogenic molecules are engaged in glaucoma disease. Moreover,…
A view of the vegetation and economic exploitation of the forest in the Late Neolithic sites of Les Jovades and Niuet (Alicante, Spain)
1992
SummaryThe results of the charcoal analysis obtained in two open air sites of the Late Neolithic, although contrasting with what is known so far about their economy, as well as with the results of different palaeoamblental studies undertaken in other sites, mainly caves with long sequences, within the same area or in other near areas, form the main interest of this paper. We will begin presenting the data pertaining to both sites individually which, in the final part, will be assessed in order to reach a better understanding of the relationship between men and their natural environment during the Neolithic period.
A full‐scale study of Darcy‐Weisbach friction factor for channels vegetated by riparian species
2021
In this article, an open channel flow resistance equation, deduced applying dimensional analysis and incomplete self-similarity condition for the flow velocity distribution, was tested using measurements carried out in a full-scale channel equipped with three types of riparian plants (Salix alba L., Salix caprea L. and Alnus glutinosa L.). In the experimental channel, having banks lined with boulders, the vegetation branches were anchored in a concrete bottom. For each species, the measurements were carried out with plants having different amounts of leaves, different plant density and plant area index. The relationship between the scale factor Γ of the velocity profile and the Froude numbe…
