Forming ideal public-private partnerships for export practices : case exporting Resource Wisdom
2017
Vaikuttavien julkisen ja yksityisen sektorin vientikumppanuuksien muodostaminen : tapaustutkimus: Resurssiviisaus vientituotteeksi. Väestönkasvu ja urbanisaatio luovat kestävyyshaasteita, mutta myös mahdollistavat uuden liiketoiminnan ja kestävän kehityksen esiinmarssia. Tämä Pro gradu –tutkielma tarkastelee, miten kestävän aluekehityksen mallia, Resurssiviisautta, voidaan hyödyntää suomalaisten yritysten vientitukena julkisen ja yksityisen sektorin yhteistyöllä. Tutkimus keskittyy tämän yhteistyön muodostamiseen, sen johtamiseen ja ohjaamiseen kuin myös oikeaoppiseen yhteistyön hallinnointiin. Näitä aspekteja tarkastellaan etenkin kaupallisessa vientitarkoituksessa. Pro gradua varten haast…
Zrównoważony rozwój w wybranych polskich dokumentach i aktach prawnych
2016
The principle of sustainable development is in many Polish acts. Its genesis is associated with the development of international environmental law. Polish law concept appeared yet in 1994. As sustainability. The adoption of the Constitution of 2 April 1997. Has consolidated the term and raised the principle of sustainable development to the category of political principles. In the wake of this in the same year it was transposed into three basic legal acts in the field of environmental protection. An important document is the Strategy for Sustainable Development Polish 2025. In this paper a review of selected legal acts and documents in which there is the concept of sustainable development.
Stratégie d'aménagement pour le développement durable d'aires métropolitaines par un système multi-scalaire d'aide à la décision : l'exemple de Vienne
2012
A sustainable and sustaining planning strategy is globally important for metropolitan areas. Sustainable planning addresses the development of strategies to reduce the use of resources, increase economic efficiency and improve integration of social aspects (e.g. pedestrian-friendly environments, well-balanced public and private transport modes, efficient street networks, land use, movement economy; access for all to jobs, retail, services; healthcare, culture and leisure). In contrast, splinter development (e.g. urban sprawl) involves damage to nature and generation of an increasing volume of traffic (these are the main criticisms following a study by Newman and Kenworthy (1989) on the rela…
Management diversification increases habitat availability for multiple biodiversity indicator species in production forests
2022
Context Forest biodiversity is closely linked to habitat heterogeneity, while forestry actions often cause habitat homogenization. Alternative approaches to even-aged management were developed to restore habitat heterogeneity at the stand level, but how their application could promote habitat diversity at landscape scale remains uncertain. Objectives We tested the potential benefit of diversifying management regimes to increase landscape-level heterogeneity. We hypothesize that different styles of forest management would create a diverse mosaic of forest habitats that would in turn benefit species with various habitat requirements. Methods Forest stands were simulated under business-as-usua…
Preliminary Evaluation of Plasmix Compound from Plastics Packaging Waste for Reuse in Bituminous Pavements
2021
Finding an appropriate technical solution for reusing waste plastics is crucial for creating a circular plastic economy. Although mechanical recycling is the best option for recycling post-consumer plastics, some heterogeneous mixed plastics cannot be recycled to produce secondary material due to their very low properties. In this case, alternative routes should be considered in order to limit their disposal as much as possible. Therefore, in order to solve the environmental problems in the landfills of plastic waste recycling, and to improve the mechanical performance of bitumen for road pavement, the reuse of these post-consumer plastic wastes are preliminarily evaluated for the modificat…
Suun terveyserojen kaventaminen Helsingissä liikkuvan suunhoitoyksikkö Liisun avulla
2011
Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää terveyserojen kaventamisen strategista toimeenpanoa ja moniammatillisen yhteistyön mahdollisuuksia Helsingin kaupungin suun terveydenhuollossa. Tavoitteena oli suunnitella liikkuvan suunhoitoyksikkö LIISUN toimintaa ja moniammatillista yhteistyötä suun terveydenhuollon ja yhteistyötahojen välillä suun terveyserojen kaventamiseksi. Tutkimustehtävinä olivat 1) Miten väestöryhmien välisiä terveyseroja voidaan kaventaa Helsingin kaupungin suun terveydenhuollossa? 2) Miten liikkuvan suunhoitoyksikön toiminnalla edistetään moniammatillista yhteistyötä suun terveyserojen kaventamiseksi? Tutkimus oli kvalitatiivinen ja siinä sovellettiin toimintatutkimu…

[Optimization of systemic treatments for chronic plaque psoriasis. Recommendations for switching and transitioning.]
2014
The aim of this study was to provide practical recommendations for optimizing the use of conventional and biological systemic treatments for moderate-severe chronic plaque psoriasis, particularly in case of transitioning and switching.A total number of 147 dermatologists from 33 different countries including Italy achieved consensus in providing practical recommendations for the use of conventional and biological treatments for moderate to severe psoriasis based on systematic literature review and/or expert opinion.In general, the continuous treatment regimen should be preferred in order to achieve a complete and long-term control of psoriasis. However, the treatment could be stopped or the…
Dog-Owner Relationship, Owner Interpretations and Dog Personality Are Connected with the Emotional Reactivity of Dogs
2022
Simple Summary The relationship between owner and the dog affects the dog's attachment behaviors and stress coping. In turn, the quality of the relationship may affect owner's interpretations about their dog's behavior. Here, we assessed dogs' emotional responses from heart rate variability and behavioral changes during five different situations. Dog owners evaluated the emotion (valence and arousal) of their dog after each situation. We found that both negative and positive incidents provoked signs of emotional arousal in dogs. Owners detected the dog's arousal especially during fear- and stress-evoking situations. The dog-owner relationship did not affect owners' interpretation of dogs' e…
Improving Energy Expenditure Estimation in Wrist-Worn Wearables by Augmenting Heart Rate Data With Heat Flux Measurement
2021
Wearable electronics are often used for estimating the energy expenditure of the user based on heart rate measurement. While heart rate is a good predictor of calorie consumption at high intensities, it is less precise at low intensity levels, which translates into inaccurate results when estimating daily net energy expenditure. In this study, heart rate measurement was augmented with heat flux (HF) measurement, a form of direct calorimetry. A physical exercise test on a group of 15 people showed that HF measurement can improve the accuracy of calorie consumption estimates especially during rest and low-intensity activity when used in conjunction with heart rate information and vital backgr…
