Resumen

The article concerns the comparison of two cases of non-confrontational asymmetry in international relations: between Taiwan and the United States and between Poland and the United States. The author explores the differences and the common elements of both situations. The outcome provides a background for comparative studies concerning not only the international situation of Taipei and Warsaw, but also an introduction to comparative approaches concerning political developments in Eastern Europe and East Asia.

Resumen

Pojava neomerkantilizma može se povezati s pojavom ekonomskog nacionalizma. Neomerkantilističku praksu moglo bi se također povezati i okarakterizirati kao protekcionizam jer dobrim dijelom koristi stari merkantilistički instrumentarij. Povijesna su zbivanja u 19. stoljeću dovela do povezivanja trgovinskih politika SAD-a i ondašnje Njemačke te su se počele primjenjivati one protekcionističke prakse koje su primjenjivale stare merkantilističke zemlje. Današnja moderna neoliberalna paradigma u praksi ekonomskih lidera povremeno i po potrebi poseže za merkantilističkim metodama pogotovo kada u globalnu jednadžbu ulaze strateški resursi. Iako su se industrijske zemlje (u početku) razvijale upravo na principima ekonomskog nacionalizma odnosno merkantilizmima, u planovima ekonomskog razvoja za nerazvijene zemlje (uz pomoć / financiranje Svjetske banke, Međunarodnog monetarnog fonda i Svjetske trgovinske organizacije) praktično je nametnuta potpuno tržišno orijentirana neoliberalna paradigma. Stoga je i u definiranju neomerkantilističke doktrine fokus na velikim gospodarstvima odnosno velikim (transnacionalnim) korporacijama koja mogu djelovati na globalne tržišne uvjete. Neomerkantilistička doktrina modernog svijeta zorno podsjeća na izvornu merkantilističku koja inzistira na profitu pod svaku cijenu, a nekadašnji trgovci koji su utjecali na državnu politiku suviše sliče modernim lobistima koji zagovaraju politike ovisno o interesima korporacija koje zastupaju. Neomerkantilistička praksa privilegija je super-sila svijeta, dok se nerazvijene zemlje nalaze u žrvnju između njih. Stoga, čini se da je tzv. politika sile zapečatila razvojne mogućnosti malim i slabi(ji)m zemljama.

Resumen

The paper describes factors that lead to the United States trade restrictions, particularly export control at the end of the second decade; the challenges of the United States policy, prospects for international trade relations. World trade is expected to grow this year after reducing in the previous one. The outlook for trade development remains with a large degree of uncertainty due to economic, financial risks, effects of struggle against pandemia; national policies. The US trade restriction policies are in focus. Besides imposing import tariffs; controlling exports of software, sensitive equipment, technology has been transformed under Trump’s administration in the context of national security, foreign policy objectives. Limiting access to the most sensitive U.S. technology has been putting in practice along with new export controls on software; restrictions on the emerging and foundational technologies. Export Control Reform that was passed by Congress and signed into law by President Trump has determined a new stage in US policy and may bring more uncertainty as concerning relations with other countries.

Texto completo

Resumen

The thesis looks at Robert S. McNamaraʼs support for withdrawal from Vietnam between 1962 and 1964, during the John F. Kennedy administration and during the transition to the Lyndon B. Johnson presidency. It offers a reassessment of McNamaraʼs role as one of the primary architects of the Vietnam War. From a methodological point of view, it approaches McNamaraʼs recommendations on Vietnam from the bureaucratic perspective of the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD), explaining the evolution of the office and the balance of civil-military relations during his tenure. Through a bureaucratic lens, McNamaraʼs support for a policy aimed at disengagement from Vietnam is logical. First, the withdrawal plans – the Comprehensive Plan for South Vietnam (CPSVN) – supported a strategy informed by the counterinsurgency thinking of the Kennedy administration. McNamaraʼs changes at the OSD were designed to align defense tools to civilian strategy. As a result, as Kennedy and McNamaraʼs counterinsurgency advisers suggested, the CPSVN put the onus on self-help (i.e. the South Vietnamese doing the fighting themselves), clear-and-hold strategies and the strategic hamlet program that was buttressed by paramilitary, rather than traditional military, forces. Secondly, the CPSVN dovetailed with McNamaraʼs economic priorities for the OSD, both mitigating the departmentʼs impact on the nagging balance of payments deficit and, in the nearer term, the impact of South Vietnamese operations on the Military Assistance Program.

Resumen

Disertacija se bavi uticajem odnosa s medijima (MR) na pojedine organizacione i poslovne performanse, u preduzećima u Srbiji. Konkretno, diesrtacija obuhvata uticaj odnosa s medijima (MR) na zadovoljstvo komunikacijom (CS), korporativni kredibilitet (CC), finansijske performanse (FP), distancu moći (PD), orjentaciju ka budućnosti (FO) i suštinsko transformaciono liderstvo (CTL). Podaci su dobijeni anketiranjem N = 394 srednja menadžera iz 123 preduzeća u Srbiji. Od metoda statističke obrade podataka korišćeni su: deskriptivna statistika, korelaciona analiza, regresiona analiza, t-test i hijerarhijska regresiona analiza. Osnovni zaključci istraživanja su: 1. Korelacije između uticaja odnosa s medijima i organizacionih i poslovnih performansi su statistički značajne, snažne i pozitivne, u najvećem broju slučajeva. Najveći uticaj na organzacione i poslovne performanse imaju savremeni mediji. 2. Odnosi s medijima imaju mali uticaj na korporativni kredibilitet, a taj uticaj se ostvaruje, pre svega, preko savremenih medija. 3. Među finansijskim performansama, odnosi s medijima naročito pozitivno utiču na tržišni udeo i rast prodaje. 4. Za povećanje organizacionih performansi, preduzeća bi posebno trebala da posvete pažnju savremenim medijima, kao i prisutnosti direktora u medijima. 5. Za povećanje finansijskih performansi, preduzeća bi posebno trebala da posvete pažnju, kako savremenim, tako i tradicionalnim medijima, pri čemu prisutnost preduzeća u medijima ima prednost nad prisustvom direktora u medijima. 6. Unapređenjem odnosa s medijima, preduzeće stvara dobru osnovu za podizanje nivoa organizacionih i poslovnih performansi.
The dissertation deals with the impact of media relations (MR) on certain organizational and business performances in Serbian companies. Specifically, the dissertation deals with the impact of media relations (MR) on communication satisfaction (CS), corporate credibility (CC), financial performance (FP), power distance (PD), future orientation (FO) and core transformational leader behaviour (CTL). The data were obtained using questionnaires completed by N = 394 middle managers from 123 companies in Serbia. The statistical methodologies that were used in the data analysis are: descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, regression analysis, t-test and hierarchical regression analysis. The main conclusions of the study are as follows. 1. The correlations between the media relations items and organizational and business performance are statistically significant, strong and positive, in most cases. Modern media have the greatest impact on organizational and business performance. 2. Media relations have little impact on corporate credibility, and that influence is achieved primarily through modern media. 3. In terms of financial performance, media relations have a particularly positive influence on market share and sales growth. 4. To increase organizational performances, companies should pay close attention to modern media, as well as to the presence of the CEO in the media. 5. To increase business (financial) performance, companies should pay considerable attention to both modern and traditional media, while the company’s media presence has an advantage over that of the CEO.

Resumen

This thesis provides a genealogy of security. The first two chapters situate it in relation to the discipline of International Relations and present the approach to develop the genealogy. It is argued that what has enabled the lack of problematization of the concept of security within the discipline is precisely the security project of the discipline itself: the securing of an ontological ground through the deployment of epistemological precepts that pervade the way the discipline is predominantly understood and its evolution is retroactively (re)written. I argue that the discipline itself is enabled by, and is a manifestation of, "sovereign thought"---i.e. a form of knowledge inextricably related to the articulation of the sovereign State as the predominant form of social order in modernity. What is revealed is how the structure of sovereign thought occults its generative principles and enables a framing of issues and problems via objective knowledge while simultaneously masking its role as a frame. It is this deployment of knowledge that enables the naturalization of "security." These first two chapters provide the groundwork and the rationale for the genealogical investigation found in the second part of the thesis. The three following chapters apply this approach to the relationship between the meaning(s) to security and the production of social order. This genealogy is developed by tracing the intimate complicity between the meaning to security and the articulation of social order via alterity. These chapters are constructed around three interregna : the shift from Roman Republic to Empire and the advent of Christianity; the shift from Christendom to sovereign State in the classical age; and the advent of the modern sovereign State and the present mutations of sovereign order. Through this genealogy it is argued that our present articulation of "security" serves as a mechanism of depoliticization in the service of sovereign order increasingly deployed throughout the social above and below statal space. Finally, I argue that it is within the context of modernity and its intimate relation with the advent of democracy that a new horizon of possibility to articulate a counter-discourse to security is opened up.

Resumen

On December 1, 2000 a new administration took over the presidency of MeÌ xico. This event was especially anticipated because the new president, Vicente Fox, was coming from a different party than the PRI, the old official party. The arrival of President Fox brought important changes in the way of governing; with the moral obligation to be different, since the beginning of his administration one of the main goals was incline to pursue a more dynamic participation by Mexico in the political issues of the world. This was to be accomplished by taking up several measures that included enhancing economic trade with the United States and other nations, world summits in Mexico, improvement of human rights and others. Among those plans one attracted special attention when Mexico asked for a seat as a non-permanent member in the UN Security Council for the period 2002-2003 the third time in Mexican history. There were divided opinions on the subject because Mexico would be directly involved in UN decisions concerning internal situations of other countries, something that goes against the foreign policy principles of MeÌ xico. Eventually this discussion opened doors for other topics; one of them was the possibility of Mexico participating actively in peacekeeping operations by sending troops overseas; this initiated a biter debate in the political sphere. This study analyzes Mexican Foreign Policy and the historical perspective of the foreign principles stated in the Mexican Constitution[alpha]s article 89, followed by a discussion of their influence and interpretation in the politicalmilitary environment before and during the administration of President Fox. The study includes the analysis includes the new social and political scenario that MeÌ xico is facing in order to determine the odds and obstacles when dealing with military participation overseas. As MeÌ xico takes its place in the community of nations, the country[alpha]s leadership needs to search for possible options and test whether the new Mexican political apparatus has the flexibility to address current threats and requirements for international security. An analysis on the capabilities of the Mexican Armed Forces is also necessary in order to determine their capacity to execute multinational operations. Finally bring out the real benefits and/or risks from getting Mexico involved in these kinds of operations are identified.

Resumen

This diploma thesis deals with the communication of state substantial economic reforms. Methodology is a case study that examines the governmental communication of the pension reform in 2013. The introduction of the thesis briefly outlines the socioeconomic situation in the Czech Republic after 2008. The theoretical part sets out the necessary basis in the fields of media and communication, public relations, political communication, psychology and public choice theory and it also provides an overview of pension system reforms development in the Czech Republic area from the time of Austro-Hungarian Empire. It notes that this issue is one of the constant governmental agenda, especially after 1989, and its enforcement is depends on the political settlement. Practical part of the thesis analyzes the communication discourse of governmental pension reform effective from 1 January 2013. For this purpose it uses structured interviews with stakeholders, quantitative content media analysis and public opinion polls. It concludes that there was no communication strategy for the pension reform and governmental information activities were insufficient and time inadequate. The thesis results in a set of recommendations for the government and its future economic reforms communication. It includes political consensus, clear message and target group identification, detailed timeline plan and the principle of simplicity in the reform explaining.

Wilkinson, Mark. "Playing the long game : UK secret intelligence and its relationship with chemical and biological weapons related foreign policy". Thesis, University of Warwick, 2009. http://wrap.warwick.ac.uk/3373/.

Texto completo

Resumen

This thesis considers the influence of secret intelligence on UK chemical and biological warfare related foreign policy. Using the Butler Report, published in the wake of the 2003 Iraq War as a reference, a model of intelligence and foreign policy interaction will be constructed. This model will then be used as a baseline against which to compare the interaction of intelligence and foreign policy relating to chemical and / or biological weapons from three case studies; the Soviet Union, South Africa and Libya. Specifically, this thesis will consider how, in each of the three case studies: intelligence linked to foreign policy, what role intelligence had in the termination / exposure of those programmes, what factors might be seen to affect that relationship, and whether intelligence might be seen to be representative of state power. The thesis will argue that the 2003 Iraq War, as described by Butler, marked a paradigm shift in terms of the relationship between intelligence and foreign policy. In particular, it will be argued that the lead up to that war marks a transition in the function of intelligence from something that had always worked to gather information to inform foreign policy to hunting for information to directly support or justify a foreign policy decision that has already been taken. Each of the three case studies will also show the intelligence and foreign policy relationship is further influenced by other factors including personalities, organisational structures and cultures as well as the perceived importance of that case study as a political issue. The thesis will conclude by suggesting that the case studies examined provide several policy recommendations; that HUMINT is essential in counterproliferation efforts, that the development of technical specialists with UK intelligence agencies is vital to prevent future proliferation crises, and that pre-emptive war places such rigorous demands on the intelligence agencies it seems they are at present unable to respond quickly enough – this requires urgent action if UK foreign policy is to continue to purse counter-proliferation as a key objective.

Resumen

AbstractProbabilistic recurrence relations (PRRs) are a standard formalism for describing the runtime of a randomized algorithm. Given a PRR and a time limit $$\kappa $$ κ , we consider the tail probability $$\Pr [T \ge \kappa ]$$ Pr [ T ≥ κ ] , i.e., the probability that the randomized runtime T of the PRR exceeds $$\kappa $$ κ . Our focus is the formal analysis of tail bounds that aims at finding a tight asymptotic upper bound $$u \ge \Pr [T\ge \kappa ]$$ u ≥ Pr [ T ≥ κ ] . To address this problem, the classical and most well-known approach is the cookbook method by Karp (JACM 1994), while other approaches are mostly limited to deriving tail bounds of specific PRRs via involved custom analysis. In this work, we propose a novel approach for deriving the common exponentially-decreasing tail bounds for PRRs whose preprocessing time and random passed sizes observe discrete or (piecewise) uniform distribution and whose recursive call is either a single procedure call or a divide-and-conquer. We first establish a theoretical approach via Markov’s inequality, and then instantiate the theoretical approach with a template-based algorithmic approach via a refined treatment of exponentiation. Experimental evaluation shows that our algorithmic approach is capable of deriving tail bounds that are (i) asymptotically tighter than Karp’s method, (ii) match the best-known manually-derived asymptotic tail bound for QuickSelect, and (iii) is only slightly worse (with a $$\log \log n$$ log log n factor) than the manually-proven optimal asymptotic tail bound for QuickSort. Moreover, our algorithmic approach handles all examples (including realistic PRRs such as QuickSort, QuickSelect, DiameterComputation, etc.) in less than 0.1 s, showing that our approach is efficient in practice.

Resumen

AbstractThis paper is aimed at presenting the Python implementation of the Value-Based Data Envelopment Analysis (VBDEA) method, which was designed to evaluate the efficiency of decision-making units (DMUs). This methodological framework explores the links between data envelopment analysis (DEA) and multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) and proposes a new perspective on the use of the additive DEA model using concepts from the multi-attribute value theory (MAVT). One of the major strengths of VBDEA over typical DEA methodologies is that it offers information on the main reasons behind DMUs’ (in)efficiency. Additionally, this approach allows straightforwardly ranking of efficient and inefficient DMUs, since it relies on a super-efficiency model. Because of the use of value functions, besides allowing the incorporation of the decision-maker (DM)’s preferences, this methodology easily handles negative or null data. In this context, we illustrate the Python implementation of the method by reproducing the main results obtained by (Gouveia et al., Or Spectrum 38:743–767, 2016), when these authors evaluated the performance of 12 health units in a Portuguese region incorporating management preferences given by real DMs.

Resumen

AbstractWe examine the main existing challenges that currently arise in the assessment of European Union (EU) funds devoted to three thematic objectives (TOs): Research and Innovation (R&I); Low-carbon economy (LCE); and Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). In this regard, a literature review on the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) initiatives is performed, with a special focus on the Portuguese (PT) case, also addressing their assessment and reporting practices. Data systematization is coupled with the European Commission (EC)’s main guidelines and with the guidance recommendations brought by Management authorities (MA) for the 2014–2020 period. A bibliometric analysis is conducted to further understand the current research interest in the evaluation of EU funds, and the type of assessment methods and reporting practices employed. Most of the approaches rely on cost–benefit analysis and place less attention on data availability, variable selection, and monitoring/assessment options. The selection and application of the framework indicators, either related to their financial execution or achievement, are assumed as critical factors concerning the monitoring, reporting, and assessment processes. Our findings emphasize the need for harmonization and simplification of the reporting techniques, also highlighting the sparse data availability and some reporting conflicts.

Resumen

Abstract This article presents the design and analysis of a seriesparallel hybrid tensegrity mechanism. The mechanism has two stages which consist of a fixed base, an intermediate mobile platform, and a mobile end-effector. Each stage is connected by three tension springs and a universal joint in the center. By correlating to a 3-SPS-U architecture, the geometrical equations for the mechanism are generated in the Euler space and the Tilt & Torsion space. To simplify the computations, the Tilt & Torsion space is employed for the analysis of the mechanism. A stability analysis is carried out initially to identify the design parameters of the mechanism in the static mode through an optimization approach. By employing algebraic methods, the singularity analysis is then carried out on the hybrid mechanism. The results of this analysis helped in identifying the feasible workspace and the maximum tilt limits of the architecture. A mapping equation that demonstrates the relation between the Tilt & Torsion angles and the Euler angles is then presented using the results of singularity analysis. A numerical simulation is then demonstrated to validate the results of the analysis. The mechanism under study is then proposed to be integrated into a piping inspection robot for passing through elbows and T-sections.

Resumen

The entropy content of electromagnetic ("black-body") radiation at equilibrium in an enclosure is represented, on a per unit volume basis, by s = [4/3]aT3 and the internal energy content by u = aT4, so s = [4/3]u/T. The entropy transfer rate Sτ associated with emission from the radiation is related to the internal energy trans-fer rate Q by Sτ = Q/T. In both cases, content and flux, the entropy is proportional to energy divided by temperature. But, in one case the proportionality factor is [4/3] and in the other it is unity. The question has been raised, "Why, this difference?" The following develop-ment explains the source of the difference.

Cilj ovoga rada je istražiti jednu relativno mladu tehnologiju, koja će po svim pokazateljima postati temelj svih sigurnosnih aplikacija u svijetu u budućnosti. Budući da živimo u brzorastućem, informacijskom i digitalnom dobu gdje se svakoga dana razvijaju nove tehnologije, prikazati će se i detaljno analizirati neke biometrijske metode i tehnike koje su danas u upotrebi s posebnim naglaskom na sektor turizma i hotelijerstva. Radi se o primjeni sustava za identifikaciju lica u turizmu s posebnim osvrtom na biometrijsku provjeru putnika u zračnim lukama, mogućnostima biometrijskog plaćanja otiskom prsta, efikasnijem upravljanju osobljem u području vođenja evidencije radnog vremena i kontroli pristupa. Biometrijska tehnologija tom sektoru nudi mogućnost da se izdigne iznad tradicionalnih koncepata u poboljšanju sigurnosti i cjelokupnog iskustva gostiju. Hoteli na taj način mogu poboljšati sustav upravljanja, a gostima se nudi najviši nivo komfora i pogodnosti. U radu se istražuju mogućnosti, snage i slabosti biometrije te utjecaj biometrije na čovjeka koji je u izravnoj interakciji s njom. Koliko su zapravo pouzdani biometrijski sustavi, štite li našu privatnost i ljudska prava samo su neka od pitanja na koja ovaj rad pokušava iznaći odgovore.

Resumen

We have studied the extrinsic fibrinolytic system in survivors, below 70 years, from myocardial infarction (AMI) treated in Umeci during 1983; in 43 type-1 diabetics; and in controls. Elderly controls underwent chest x-ray, ECG, EEG, brain CT scan to verify their health. Tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) activity was measured with a fibrin-stimulated rate assay, before and after a 10 min venous occlusion test (VO), tPA antigen (Ag) with an ELISA, and plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI) by incubating samples with purified tPA and measuring remaining tPA with a polylysine-stimulated rate assay.In the diabetics, PAI and tPA:Ag were similar to the controls. tPA:Ag correlated with age (r=0.6). Diabetics had much higher specific activity of tPA (61,300 vs 21,900), and had also much higher tPA activity after VO (2.2 vs 1.2 U/ml). The tPA activities after VO correlated well with HbA1c (r=0.39). A significant effect of smoking was disclosed. Smoking diabetics had higher PAI and tPA antigen but also lower specific activity of tPA (60,600 vs 115,700 U/mg). Ex-smokers were very similar to smokers, not to the non-smokers. Retinopathy, nephropathy, or hypertension didn’t appear to affect fibrinolysis independently.In the AMI survivors (sampled 3 months after discharge from hospital), PAI was 6-fold higher than in elderly controls (p less than 0.0001). tPA activity after VO was much higher (3.2 vs 1.2 U/ml), as was tPA:Ag. tPA specific activity was lower. Among AMI patients with PAI over 10 U/ml, PAI correlated with triglycerides (r=0.4) and negatively with age (r=™0.4): these relations were not seen in the patients with PAI less than 10. The effects of smoking seen in diabetics were not observed among the AMI patients, von Willebrand factor was not increased among AMI nor diabetic patients, except for those with retinopathy.The results suggest that the tPA/PAI system is a more sensitive indicator than vWF of endothelial cell dysfunction. It relates to effects of age, atherosclerotic vascular disease, and among diabetics also to degree of metabolic control and to tobacco smoking habits.

Resumen

The TRACE (TRAC/RELAP Advanced Computational Engine) code is an advanced, best-estimate thermal-hydraulic program intended to simulate the transient behavior of light-water reactor systems, using a two-fluid (steam and water, with non-condensable gas), seven-equation representation of the conservation equations and flow-regime dependent constitutive relations in a component-based model with one-, two-, or three-dimensional elements, as well as solid heat structures and logical elements for the control system. The U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission is currently supporting the development of the TRACE code and its assessment against a variety of experimental data pertinent to existing and evolutionary reactor designs. This paper presents the results of TRACE post-test prediction of P-series of experiments (i.e., tests comprising the ISP-42 blind and open phases) conducted at the PANDA large-scale test facility in 1990s. These results show reasonable agreement with the reported test results, indicating good performance of the code and relevant underlying thermal-hydraulic and heat transfer models.

Resumen

The effects on thrombus formation and bleeding of various heparin(oid)s were studied at several time-intervals: in addition, the αXa-, αiia-, and thrombin generation inhibitory (IIaGI)-activities were measured amidolytically in plasma from these animals. The following substances were studied: heparin (HEP), the fraction of heparin with high affinity for ATIII (HA-HEP), a low molecular weight fraction of heparin (LMW-HEP), nitrous acid degraded heparin (NAD-HEP), FragrainR (FRA), Org 10172 and the fraction of Org 10172 with high affinity for ATIII (HA-10172). The substances were given in a dose of 800 αXa U/kg i.v. in the thrombosis model and in the double dose (1600 αXa U/kg i.v.) in the bleeding model because of the lower intrinsic effect on bleeding. The initial magnitude and the duration of the anti-thrombotic and bleeding enhancing effects of these substances are summarized in the table together with the half-lives of the αXa-, αia- and IIaGI-activities. NE: not estimated due to too low alla-activities.The following conclusions could be drawn concerning the duration of the effects: 1. in contrast with HEP most lower molecular weight substances showed different time courses of the anti-thrombotic and the bleeding enhancing effect 2. the duration of the antithrombotic effect of Org 10172 and HA-10172 is considerably longer than that of the other substances 3. the duration of the bleeding enhancing effect of Org 10172, HA-10172, NAD-HEP and FragminR is shorter than that of HEP, HA-HEP and LMW-HEP. Additional conclusions could be drawn by inspecting the time response curves and taking the magnitude of the effects into account: 4. Org 10172 and its high affinity fraction have a better benefit/risk ratio in comparison with the other substances, which even increases in time 5. the time-response curves of the anti-thrombotic effects seem to be associated with those of the aXa-activities and 6. the time-response curves of the bleeding enhancing effects seem to be related to those of thrombin inactivation.

Resumen

Novčane doznake su novi finansijski fenomen i jedan od važnih izvora prihoda zemalja sa niskim i srednjim dohotkom. Iako su pojedinačne novčane doznake relativno male vrijednosti, one zajedno predstavljaju ogromnu vrijednost, jer su zbirno ti tokovi tri puta veći od globalne službene razvojne pomoći. Iako se najčešće koriste za pokrivanje osnovnih potreba domaćinstava, one istovremeno u dijelu domaćinstava podržavaju razvoj vještina i mogućnosti kroz obrazovanje i preduzetništvo i upravo ti resursi su se pokazali ključnim za transformaciju lokalnih zajednica, jer omogućavaju mnogim porodicama postizanje vlastitih ciljeva održivog razvoja. Zemlje Jugoistočne Evrope se godinama suočavaju s velikim stopama iseljavanja i to je preraslo u kontinuiran proces, čiji je glavni uzrok ekonomske prirode. Iako iseljavanje u dugoročnom kontekstu ima negativne reperkusije, jer dugoročno djeluje na smanjivanje potencijalne stope rasta BDP i ukupne faktorske produktivnosti, a penzioni i zdravstveni fond se dovodi do kolapsa; postoje i neki pozitivni efekti, kratkoročnog karaktera, gdje se naročito ističe prijem personalnih novčanih doznaka. Upravo su doznake dijelom doprinijele smanjenju stope siromaštva, ali isto tako i amortizovale nepovoljne efekte vanjskotrgovinske razmjene.

Resumen

Abstract The thermodynamic systems considered here are those that can be described by using only two macroscopic variables. For this purpose the specific volume v and the specific internal energy u are used while the pressure function p(u,v) is supposed to be known. It is shown that by a suitable mathematical transformation of variables, the pair (u,v) can be replaced by the pair of functions temperature T(u,v) and entropy s(u,v) that are defined simultaneously by a proposed generic system of differential equations without using the concept of heat. To show the authenticity of these definitons some solutions of this generic system of differential equations are given and in addition to, the special case of the perfect gas is obtained as one of the results. It is proposed to add to the conventional concepts of work and heat a third constitutive component, the throttling. With it the local efficiency η of a differential themodynamic change can be defined. In addition this allows for the deduction of the relation (pdv + du) ≥ 0 as a consequence. The heat-work energy interactions with a thermodynamic system are taking place mostly through an enclosing boundary wall. As these two different forms of energy flow cross the boundary wall, they undergoe some transformation. As a result, the heat and work flow through the wall from/to the outer space to/from the system considered may change, although its algebraic sum, the total energy transfered, retains its initial value. Vector notation is used to facilitate the description of this transformation of energy crossing a boundary wall.

Resumen

Fibrin binds to the finger domain of fibronektin via the C-terminal end of the chain and it was reported previously by us that in a fluid phase assay fibronektin inhibits fibrin enhancement of plasminogen activation by tPA. However, other have shown that tPA binds to fibronectin thereby possibly mediating enhanced matrix bound plasmin formation. In the present study we tried to further characterize the interaction between fibronectin and fibrin in regard to fibrin dependent enhancement of plasminogen activation by tPA. For fibrin binding to fibronectin we have developed an ELISA system using fibronectin coated plates and antibodies against fibrin(ogen) to quantify bound fibrin. For determination of plasminogen activation we used a coupled spectrophotometric fluid phase assay with Glu-plasminogen as substrate and H-D-Val-Leu-Lys-pNA to quantify the formed plasmin. Fibrin binding to coated fibronectin was linear between 500ng and 1 mg/ml for fibrin monomers (reptilase), FCB-2 fragments and thrombin (3.3 U/ml) treated fibrinogen, respectively. A monoclonal antibody directed against the FCB-2 fibrinogen fragment which also could be shown to recognize fibirn but not fibrinogen did not recognize fibronectin bound fibrin and inhibited also the fibrin stimulatory effect on plasminogen activation indicating that the epitope against which the antibody is directed is closely related to both the fibronectin binding site and the site involved in t-PA stimulation.

Resumen

Immunoblotting studies showed that human plasma and urine contain components that form heparin-dependent complexes with activated protein C (APC) and urokinase (UPA) and that the presence of either active enzyme decreases complex formation by the other (Geiger et al. 1986, Circ. 74:11-234). To investigate whether these findings are due to competition of APC and UPA for one or more heparin-dependent inhibitors, a functional assay for PCI was developed to study the time course of inhibition of protein C (PC) in purified or crude systems in the presence or absence of stimulating or interfering substances. Microtiter plates coated with monoclonal anti-protein C antibodies were incubated with diluted plasma supplemented with 125I-pc. After activation of bound PC with Protac C, the wells were washed and then incubated with samples containing PCI in the presence or absence of heparin for varying times. The remaining amidolytic activity on the substrate S-2366 was determined as Δ A405/time/cpm bound. Using plasma as a source of PCI, APC inhibition followed pseudo first order kinetics and a linear relation between the pseudo first order rate constant, k, and plasma concentration was observed from 6% to 40% plasma with k = 0.012/min at 20% plasma. A dose dependent increase in k was observed in the presence of heparin, with half maximal stimulation at 2 to 4 U/ml and maximal stimulation (k = 0.05/min at 20% plasma at heparin concentration > 10 U/ml. Urinary PCI was partially purified vising heparin Sepharose chromatography from which it coeluted at 0.35 M NaCl with UPA inhibitory activity. Partially purified urinary PCI inhibited APC and UPA, and competitions similar to those obtained with plasma PCI were observed. The effect of UPA on the inhibition of APC by PCI in plasminogen-depleted plasma and by urinary PCI was studied. In both systems, UPA caused a significant decrease in the inhibition of APC in the absence or presence of heparin. These results and our previous immunobloting data demonstrate competition of APC and UPA for common heparin-dependent PCIs in plasma and urine.

Resumen

The objective of the project was to validate existing pipeline integrity prediction models through field testing multiple pipelines, validate the performance of in-line instrumentation through smart pig runs, and finally, to assess the actual integrity of aging damaged and defective pipelines. The objectives were accomplished by the testing of aging out-of-service lines using "smart pigs", followed by hydrotesting of the lines to failure, recovery of the failed sections, and determination of the pipeline characteristics in the vicinity of the failed sections (failure analysis). One objective of the project was to validate the dented, gouged, and corroded pipeline burst strength prediction models currently in existence, such as ASME B31-G, R-Streng, and DNV 99 for pipelines. Another model was being developed as a joint international project sponsored by the U. S. Minerals Management Service, Petroleos Mexicanos (PEMEX), and Instituto Mexicano del Petroleo (IMP) titled RAM PIPE REQUAL and an associated JIP identified as PIMPIS (Pipeline Inspection, Maintenance, and Performance Information System), this would be tested and validated as well. The validation was provided by hydrotesting in-situ pipelines to failure. Sustained and rapidly applied hydro-pressures were used to investigate the effects of delayed and dynamic pressure related failures. After testing, the pipelines were scheduled for decommissioning; with the failed sections located, and brought to the laboratory for testing and analysis. Class A predictions were made before the pipelines were hydrotested to failure based on results from in-line instrumentation (instrumented) and from knowledge of the pipeline products and other characteristics (not instrumented). Based on the results from the testing, the analytical models were to be revised to provide improved agreement between the measured and predicted burst pressures. Since the pipelines were inspected with smart pigs before the hydro-tests, it was possible to compare the smart-pig data gathered during pig runs to the actual condition of the pipeline. This was accomplished by recovering sections of the pipeline that were identified by the pig as having pits or metal-loss areas. Reviewed pipeline decommissioning inventory and selected a pipeline candidate. The specific scope of work included: � Selected pipelines for testing. � Conducted field tests with an instrumented pig to determine pipeline denting, gouging and corrosion conditions. � Used existing analytical models to determine burst strength for both instrumented and non-instrumented pipelines. � Hydrotested the selected pipelines to failure (sustained and rapidly applied pressures). � Located and retrieve failed sections and other sections identified as problem spots by the "smart-pig." � Compared "smart pig" data to actual pipeline condition. � Analyzed the failed sections to determine their physical and material characteristics. � Revised the analytical models to provide improved agreements between predicted and measured burst pressures.
