Agri-food Clusters as an Opportunity for Development of Border Rural Areas
2016
Cooperation within the framework of euroregions of the European Union is an answer to challenges posed by global economy and not merely an instrument to reduce negative external effects which exist in peripheral areas. In the long-term perspective, cooperation should serve to: ensure stability of natural capital, dissemination of knowledge and innovation as well as break the convention of simple industrialization thanks to the feedback of network economy. The sole meeting point of the three processes is a territory, the delineation of which should be executed by social actors capable of identifying resources that are available on it. The authors of the article present the justification of t…
An analysis of communicative exercises of two English workbooks from the Finnish middle school
2018
Tämän tutkielman tavoitteena on selvittää kahden suomalaisen yläkoulun A1-englannin harjoituskirjan suulliseen kommunikaatioon keskittyvien tehtävien määrää ja laatua. Uusin opetussuunnitelma sekä yleinen kielenopetukseen liittyvä keskustelu tähdentävät kommunikoinnin ja suullisen kielitaidon tärkeyttä. Tämä tutkimus osaltaan selvittää näiden ideaalien toteutumista kahdessa englannin kielen harjoituskirjassa. Kirjat, joita tutkittiin, olivat On the Go 1 Workbook ja Scene 1 Exercises, jotka ovat peruskoulun seitsemännen luokan harjoituskirjoja. Näistä kirjoista pyrittiin tunnistamaan sellaiset tehtävät, jotka suoraan harjoittavat englanninkielistä suullisen kommunikaation kompetenssin kehity…
Analysis of the therapeutical properties of a phage against Staphylococcus aureus pig isolates, and phage isolation against Pseudomonas aeruginosa fr…
2017
Antibioottiresistenttiys on kasvava ongelma, jonka selättämiseksi tarvitaan uusia keinoja. Prekliinisten tutkimustulosten perusteella bakteereja infektoivien virusten eli faagien on havaittu olevan hyvä vaihtoehto antibiooteille. Sairaalanäytteestä löydettyä metisilliinille resistenttiä Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) -kantaa vastaan eristetty bakteriofagi karakterisoitiin sekvensoimalla ja läpäisyelektronimikroskoopilla, jotta sen mahdollista terapeuttista käyttöä voitaisiin selvittää. Faagilla havaittiin olevan keskikokoinen 43,098 bp:n pituinen genomi ja faagin morfologian perusteella se lukeutuu Siphoviridae-heimoon kuuluviin hännällisiin faageihin. Faagi puhdistettiin anioninvaihtokromato…
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…
Association between resting blood pressure and maximal blood pressure response to exercise and arterial health
2022
We investigated the longitudinal associations of blood pressure, cardiorespiratory fitness, and arterial stiffness among children. Arterial stiffening has been repeatedly shown to be a cardiovascular mortality predictor and can be observed early in childhood. As such, it is crucial to understand whether a child’s blood pressure, fitness level, and body composition can predict early signs of atherosclerosis and arterial stiffening. The current study examined the relationship between blood pressure, cardiorespiratory fitness, and arterial stiffness over time in children, using data from the Physical and Nutrition in Children (PANIC) Study. It is a physical and dietary intervention study condu…
Heart rate recovery after maximal and submaximal exercise
2012
Pasi Karjalainen (2012). Heart rate recovery after maximal and submaximal exercise. Department of Biology of Physical Activity, University of Jyväskylä, Master thesis in exercise physiology, 76 pages. Heart rate recovery (HRR) after exercise reflects autonomic control of the heart. Heart rate recovery (HRR) has shown to have prognostic value among asymptomatic populations and patients with diseases. In addition, changes in HRR may reflect the effects of training load. The role of parasympathetic reactivation in decrease of heart rate (HR) is known to be strong immediately after the cessation of exercise. It is also shown that HRR is affected by the activity of the sympathetic system that is…
Non-Stationary Probabilistic Response of Linear Systems Under Non-Gaussian Input
1991
The probabilistic characterization of the response of linear systems subjected to non-normal input requires the evaluation of higher order moments than two. In order to obtain the equations governing these moments, in this paper the extension of the Ito’s differential rule for linear systems excited by non-normal delta correlated processes is presented. As an application the case of the delta correlated compound Poisson input process is treated.
Stochastic Response on Non-Linear Systems under Parametric Non-Gaussian Agencies
1992
The probabilistic response characterization of non-linear systems subjected to non-normal delta correlated parametric excitation is obtained. In order to do this an extension of both Ito’s differential rule and the Fokker-Planck equation is presented, enabling one to account for the effect of the non-normal input. The validity of the approach reported here is confirmed by results obtained by means of a Monte Carlo simulation.
Liftings and extensions of operators in Brownian setting
2020
We investigate the operators T on a Hilbert space H which have 2-isometric liftings S with the property S ∗ S H ⊂ H . We show that such liftings are closely related to some extensions of T, which h...
Commutative Partial O*-Algebras
2002
This chapter is devoted to the integrability of commutative partial O*-algebras. Three notions of weak commutativity, commutativity and strong commutativity of an O*-vector space are defined and investigated. In Section 3.1, we analyze the relation between the integrability of weakly commutative O*-vector space M and the commutativity of the von Neumann algebra (M w ′ )′. In Section 3.2, we study the integrable extensions of partial O*-algebras. In Section 3.3, we describe another explicit example, namely, the partial O*-algebra M[S, T] generated by two weakly commuting symmetric operators S and T defined on a common dense domain in a Hilbert space. In particular, we investigate in detail t…
