The Portrayal of Paul's Outer Appearance in the Acts of Paul and Thecla. Re-Considering the Correspondence between Body and Personality in Ancient Li…
2008
AbstractThis essay claims that Paul's description in Acts Paul Thecl. 3, if read against the background of Graeco-Roman physiognomics, i.e., the belief in the coherence between outer appearance and inner qualities of a person, is not derogative as assumed in older research but agreeable. The positive interpretation of Paul's outer appearance is corroborated by an analysis of the reactions he evokes in followers (Onesiphorus, Thecla) as well as opponents (Theoclia, Thamyris). It is demonstrated that Paul's physiognomy corresponds to his apostolic identity.
How preconditioning and pretensioning of grafts used in ACLigaments surgical reconstruction are influenced by their mechanical time-dependent charact…
2021
Abstract Purpose Consensus about a pre-implant preparation protocol adaptable to any graft used in Anterior Cruciate Ligament reconstruction is still lacking. In fact, there is not agreement on reliable metrics that consider both specific graft dimensional characteristics, such as its diameter, and the inherent properties of its constitutive material, i.e. ligaments or tendons. Aim of the present study was to investigate and propose the applied engineering stress as a possible metrics. Methods Preconditioning and pretensioning protocol involved groups of grafts with different section (10 or 32 mm2) and materials (i.e. human patellar and hamstring tendons, and synthetic grafts). A 140 N load…
Place and Positionality – Anthropo(topo)logical Thinking with Helmuth Plessner
2018
This paper explores a possible anthropological dimension of place by providing an interpretation of Helmuth Plessner’s philosophical approach which proposes to understand it as a twofold “implacement” of man – discussing both the place of man in the natural world and man’s specific relation to place that makes him take his place in the natural world. The interpretation follows Plessner’s idea of a natural set of stages, developed in his major work Die Stufen des Organischen und der Mensch, leading from inanimate objects to plants, animals, and humans. According to Plessner, each stage differs from the other by virtue of its respective spatial delineation toward, and its position in, the wor…
Krievijas un Indijas sadarbība terorisma apkarošanas jomā
2017
Indija un Krievija ir nozīmīgi starptautiskie aktori, kurus apvieno ne tikai septiņdesmit gadu gara vēsture, bet arī virkne citu faktoru, viens no kuriem ir cīņa ar terorismu. Mūsdienās terorisms kļuva par globālu problēmu, un pašreizējos apstākļos to būs iespējams apkarot tikai ar kopējiem spēkiem. Indija un Krievija vairākus gadus par partnerības lielāko prioritāti izvirza sadarbību terorisma apkarošanā. Ir grūti atrast piemērus, kad diplomātiskajās vizītēs, pārrunās vai starptautiskajos pasākumos Indijas un Krievijas līderi neuzsvērtu savu bilaterālo darbu terorisma apkarošanas jomā. Šī bakalaura darba ietvaros, tiks aplūkota teorija par terorismu un terorisma apkarošanu, izmantojot šo m…
Kuņģa vēža un pirmsvēža stāvokļu saistība ar autoimūnu gastrītu
2016
Ievads. Kuņģa atrofija un H.pylori infekcija ir labi zināmi kuņģa vēža riska faktori, bet autoimūna gastrīta nozīme kuņģa vēža attīstībā nav pilnīgi skaidra. Darba mērķis. Izpētīt antiparietālo šūnu antivielu (APCA) un antivielu pret iekšējo faktoru (IFA) izplatības un vērtību atšķirības pacientiem ar kuņģa vēzi un pirmsvēža stāvokļiem, un saistību ar H.pylori infekciju. Materiāli un metodes. Tika izmeklētas APCA un IFA vērtības un to saistība ar H.pylori IgG vērtībām pacientiem ar morfoloģiski apstiprinātu kuņģa vēzi un pirmsvēža stāvokļiem. Par pozitīvām APCA un IFA vērtībām tika uzskatītas vērtības ≥25 vienībām. Par pozitīvu H.pylori infekciju tika spriests, vadoties pēc IgG rezultātiem …
Computer Modeling for the Prediction of Thoracic Aortic Stent Graft Collapse
2011
OBJECTIVE: To assess the biomechanical implications of excessive stent protrusion into the aortic arch in relation to thoracic aortic stent graft (TASG) collapse by simulating the structural load and quantifying the fluid dynamics on the TASG wall protrusion extended into a model arch. METHODS: One-way coupled fluid-solid interaction analyses were performed to investigate the flow-induced hemodynamic and structural loads exerted on the proximal protrusion of the TASG and aortic wall reconstructed from a patient who underwent traumatic thoracic aortic injury repair. Mechanical properties of a Gore TAG thoracic endoprosthesis (W. L. Gore and Assoc, Flagstaff, Ariz) were assessed via experimen…

On the Measure of Many-Level Fuzzy Rough Approximation for L-Fuzzy Sets
2019
We introduce a many-level version of L-fuzzy rough approximation operators and define measures of approximation obtained by such operators. In a certain sense, theses measures characterize the quality of the resulting approximation. We study properties of such measures and give a topological interpretation of the obtained results.
Reconstrucción virtual y visualización 3d del yacimiento arqueológico Castellet de Bernabé (Lliria, España)
2017
3D virtual reconstruction of cultural heritage is a useful tool to reach many goals: the accurate documentation of our tangible cultural legacy, the determination of mechanical alteration on the assets, or the mere shape acquisition prior to restoration and/or reconstruction works, etc. Among these goals, when planning and managing tourism enhancement of heritage sites, it demands setting up specific instruments and tools to guarantee both, the site conservation and the visitors’ satisfaction. Archaeological sites are physical witnesses of the past and an open window to research works and scientific discoveries, but usually, the major structures do no exist nowadays, and the general public …
