An International Survey of Quality and Safety Programs in Radiology
2021
Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine the status of radiology quality improvement programs in a variety of selected nations worldwide. Methods: A survey was developed by select members of the International Economics Committee of the American College of Radiology on quality programs and was distributed to committee members. Members responded on behalf of their country. The 51-question survey asked about 12 different quality initiatives which were grouped into 4 themes: departments, users, equipment, and outcomes. Respondents reported whether a designated type of quality initiative was used in their country and answered subsequent questions further characterizing it. Results: The re…
Nacionālā vērtību sistēma korejiešu sakāmvārdos
2017
Bakalaura darbs “Nacionālā vērtību sistēma korejiešu sakāmvārdos” ir veltīts korejiešu sakāmvārdu izpētei. Katrai tautai ir savas nacionālās īpatnības, kuras nevar piešķirt citām tautām. Sakāmvārds ir folkloras materiāls, kurā atklājas šīs īpatnības. Interese par korejiešu valodas apguvi Latvijā sāka pieaugt tikai šajā desmitgadē. Tas ir galvenais iemesls, kāpēc pētījumu par šo valodu pagaidām nav daudz. Autore izvēlējās korejiešu sakāmvārdus par pētījuma objektu, jo uzskata, ka pilnvērtīga korejiešu valodas apguve bez idiomātisko izteicienu un sakāmvārdu saprašanas ir neiespējama. Darba mērķis ir izpētīt korejiešu sakāmvārdus un izvērtēt to savstarpēju sakarību ar pieņemtām nacionālām vērt…
Organisational Challenges for School Development and Improvement : The Obstructing Role of Sub-Groups and an Overly Positive School Culture
2020
The purpose of this study has been to identify and analyse obstacles embedded in the school organisation that impede organisational development and improvement. The general findings show that the school structure comprised sub-groups and had characteristics of a diversified organisation. This led to dysfunctional discussions that challenged school development and improvement. Second, the findings revealed that the nature of the school culture may challenge school development processes. Positive features of the school culture, such as engagement, good relationships and high self-esteem might deter the effectiveness of the schools, e.g. the schools’ ability to prioritise and improve the pupil…
Unique Problems Require Unique Solutions—Models and Problems of Linking School Effectiveness and School Improvement
2022
The article aims to outline the proposals for linking school effectiveness research and school improvement that are currently relevant in international discussion and to ask how they deal with the ‘technology deficit’ at the level of model improvement. We will first show the difference between school improvement and school effectiveness. Then, we outline areas showing basic problems associated with linking school effectiveness and school improvement. After that, we present a summary of two relevant models for linking school effectiveness research and school improvement—Comprehensive Framework of Effective School Improvement and Dynamic Model of Educational Effectiveness&md…
Ancient architecture in Provence between the Iron Age and the Imperial era: the pillars of the Château-Bas site in Vernègues
2013
The site of Château-Bas (Vernègues, Bouches-du-Rhône), famous above all for its Augustan Roman temple, has yielded a set of pillars decorated either with writhing snakes or with straight rods. As yet there are no known parallels to such pillars. The discovery of a fragment of a pillar reused in a 1st c. AD structure demonstrates that these carvings are ancient. The architectural study of the fragments and comparison with other sculptural elements from southern Gaul suggest they date approximately to the turn of the millenium. The originality of these pieces should perhaps be sought in the copying and adaptation of Italic architectural features (Attic base, Tuscan capital) to a particular fo…
Espace culturel, territoire et terroir : approches spatiales des groupes campaniformes récents dans le sud-est de la France
2000
In south-eastern France, the récent Bell-Beaker culture is marked by the presence of a regional Rhône-Provence group having complex relationships with other régional Bell-Beaker and regional final Neolithic groups. The analysis from a spatial point of view and at different levels (cultural space, territory, land) leads to a better knowledge of prehistoric geography and also to raises other questions, such as chronology, history of populations and socio-economic models.
Indagine sperimentale su tralicci in acciaio di travi reticolari miste
2008
Experimental results on the shear behaviour of the steel trusses in composite steel-concrete beams are presented. Preliminarily tensile tests have been performed on specimens reproducing different types of welded joints. Tests are addressed to investigate on the bearing capacity of the welds and on the local instability problems that can arise in the elements of the truss. A FEM model is also presented in order to reproduce the behaviour of the steel truss subjected to shear load. Moreover, simplified relations are used to obtain the ultimate load on the welds for the different type of node and simplified models based on truss behaviour are used to foresee the stiffness and the strength of …

Edad de Oro del coleccionismo textil. El caso de la familia Fortuny Madrazo
2021
En el último tercio del siglo XIX se produjo el auge del coleccionismo de tejidos antiguos. Fue una práctica impulsada por el movimiento de revalorización de las artes aplicadas, la Exposición Universal de Londres de 1851 y por la fundación de los primeros museos de disciplinas decorativas. Las ricas telas, que en la Edad Media constituyeron un símbolo de ostentación y poder, habían permanecido relegadas al olvido hasta que eruditos, magnates o artistas comenzaron a atesorar estos ejemplares fabulosos. Mariano Fortuny y Marsal (1838-1874) no solo reunió uno de los conjuntos más renombrados del momento, sino que formó parte del selecto círculo pionero en este campo del mercado del arte. Tras…
