Improving a constant in high-dimensional discrepancy estimates
Authors: Pasing Hendrik , Weiß Christian
Published: July 2020

For all s ? 1 and N ? 1 there exist sequences (z1,..., zN) in [0, 1]s
such that the star-discrepancy of these points can be bounded by D* N(z1,..., zN) ? c ?s/?N . In practice it is desirable to obtain low values of c.
The best known value for the constant is c = 10 as has been calculated by
Aistleitner. In this paper we improve the bound to c = 9.
When a total graph associated with a commutative ring is perfect?
Authors: Jalali Mitra , Nikandish Reza , Tehranian Abolfazl
Published: July 2020

Let R be a commutative ring with identity, and let Z(R) be the set of
zero-divisors of R. The total graph of R is the graph T(?(R)) whose vertices
are all elements of R, and two distinct vertices x and y are adjacent if and
only if x + y ? Z(R). We investigate the perfectness of the graphs Z0(?(R)),
T0(?(R)) and T(?(R)), where Z0(?(R)) and T0(?(R)) are (induced) subgraphs of
T(?(R)) on Z(R)* = Z(R) \ {0} and R* = R \ {0}, respectively.

Authors: Savaş Rabia , Patterson Richard
Published: July 2020

Let I2 ? P(N ? N) be a nontrivial ideal. We provide a new approach to the
concept of I2-double lacunary statistical convergence and I2-lacunary
strongly double summable by taking f(?,?), which is a multidimensional
measurable real valued function on (1,?) ? (1,?). Additionally, we examine
the relation between these two new methods.

The lack of ethnically sensitive data in Serbia's multiculturalism policy
Authors: Basic Goran , Lutovac Zoran
Published: July 2020

International organisations whose bodies monitor the realisation and protection of the rights of national and ethnic minorities (Council of Europe, United Nations) have expressed their concern about the lack of data in the Republic of Serbia?s reports on the protection of the rights of national minorities, and they have provided some recommendations in order to amend the situation. Prompted by these remarks, this paper considers the flaws in Serbia?s policy of multiculturalism. The main finding ? that Serbia?s policy of multiculturalism is not founded on verified and measurable data ? has been examined further by indicating the principles and methodologies of collecting data based on ethnic and national identity. By using a range of examples, the paper points to the social issues that occur due to neglect in collecting data on citizens? ethnicity, while the necessity of an interdisciplinary approach to collecting such data is also considered. A holistic approach to researching ethnicity assumes using not only demographic methods, but also methods from and knowledge of other social sciences and humanities. The United Nations supports the idea that the approach to ethnically sensitive data should be holistically founded with its position that all data regarding people?s identity must be based on human rights ? a Human Rights-Based Approach to Data (HRBAD), in which case the relevance of statistical data is promoted.

Published: July 2020

The characteristics of partially-premixed flames is investigated by simulating a series of triple flames with different variations of chemical equivalent ratio. A 2-D reaction-diffusion manifold chemistry tabulation method is employed in the simulation and the results are compared with the CH4-air 19-step chemical reaction mechanism. The performance of these two mechanisms is then assessed by using direct numerical simulations coupled with GRI3.0 detailed mechanism. It is shown that both 2-D reaction-diffusion manifold table and 19-step simplified mechanism can describe the temperature and main products accurately, however, for some minor intermediary products, predictions from 2-D reaction-diffusion manifold table is observed to be better than 19-step simplified mechanism. Com-pared with the 19-step mechanism, 2-D reaction-diffusion manifold table only needs to solve only the transport equations for CO2 and N2 species, which greatly simplifies the solution process of chemical reaction and provides a reliable solution for the numerical simulation of turbulence with higher accuracy. This work indicates that as a relatively advanced kinetic simplified method, the reaction-diffusion manifold tabulation method can reduce the computational cost and at the same time retain the accuracy effectively.

Authors: Ruan Jie , Xiao Helin , Yang Xiaolong , Guo Fengyun , Huang Jiaqi , Ju Hongling
Published: July 2020

Currently, biodiesel has been received much attention from many researchers around the world due to its clean and renewable characteristics. In the present study, combustion and emissions characteristics have been studied on a modified four-cylinder, 4-stroke, water-cooled, direct injection compression internal engine equipped with a common rail fuel injection system fueled with methanol-biodiesel blends as well as pure biodiesel. The experiment was operated at a constant engine speed of 1800 rpm and injection timing from 2.5-22.5 ? crank angle before top dead center. With the injection timing advanced, peak in-cylinder pressure and maximum heat release rate increased while combustion start points were advanced. Ignition delay was shorten first and then prolonged while brake thermal efficiency was increased first and then decreased. With the injection timing in advance, NOx emissions increased, 1,3-butadiene and benzene emissions decreased while hydrocarbon and acetaldehyde emissions decreased first and then increased, and soot emissions increased first and then decreased.

Authors: Fattori Liana , Sendyk Michelle , de Paiva João Batista , Normando David , Neto José Rino
Published: July 2020

Objectives

To investigate the effect of micro-osteoperforation (MOP) on the rate of tooth movement (RTM), space closure duration, and oral health–related quality of life (OHRQoL) during completion of anterior retraction in patients undergoing combined orthodontic-surgical treatment after premolar extraction and decompensation with sliding mechanics.

Materials and Methods

Twenty-four participants with indications for premolar extractions were randomly allocated to treatment with conventional sliding mechanics (control group; CG) or with to treatment in which three MOPs were performed every activation (experimental group; EG). Dental impressions were taken monthly until space closure was completed and dental casts were converted to three-dimensional models. After the anterior retraction procedure, Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14) questionnaires were filled out at 4 and 72 hours.

Results

Eighteen patients (7 men and 11 women) remained in the trial until space closure was completed (mean follow-up period = 247 days). For full space closure RTM, no significant difference (P = .492) was found between groups (0.614 mm/month for the CG; 0.672 mm/month for the EG). The RTM for different time points, groups, time frames and their interaction were statistically different (P < .05). In multiple correlation analysis, the RTM significantly decreased over time for both groups (P < .05). The OHRQoL scores were significantly higher (worse) for the EG. The psychological, physical and social disabilities, and handicap domains displayed significant differences between the two groups.

Conclusion

Use of MOPs did not change the full space closure RTM, while it had a negative impact on OHRQoL.
Refractory Hypotension During General Anesthesia Despite Withholding Telmisartan
Authors: Hojo Takayuki , Shibuya Makiko , Kimura Yukifumi , Otsuka Yuki , Fujisawa Toshiaki
Published: July 2020

Angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) are commonly used to treat hypertension. However, similar to angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, ARBs can also cause refractory hypotension during general anesthesia. Therefore, it has been recommended that ARBs be withheld for 24 hours prior to the induction of anesthesia. This is a case report of refractory hypotension requiring the administration of potent vasopressors after the induction of general anesthesia despite withholding telmisartan for 24 hours. In the same patient undergoing a subsequent general anesthetic, telmisartan was withheld for 5 days before induction, leading to mild intraoperative hypotension that responded adequately to phenylephrine. The primary cause of refractory hypotension during the first general anesthetic was suspected to be an insufficient telmisartan washout period. Telmisartan's half-life of 24 hours is notably the longest of all ARBs in current use. This case report demonstrates that refractory hypotension during general anesthesia cannot always be avoided by withholding telmisartan for 24 hours before the induction of anesthesia. Therefore, a washout period greater than 24 hours is preferable for patients taking telmisartan.

Published: July 2020

Bu araştırmada öğretmenlerin çokkültürlülüğe yönelik algıları ile sınıf içi istenmeyen öğrenci davranışlarına yönelik tutumlarının belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Araştırma betimsel nitelikte olup tarama modeline göre desenlenmiştir. Araştırma örneklemini 2017-2018 eğitim-öğretim yılında İstanbul’un Esenyurt ilçesinde ilkokul ve geçici eğitim merkezlerinde görev yapan ve kolay ulaşılabilir örnekleme yöntemi ile belirlenmiş olan 192 öğretmen oluşturmuştur. Araştırmada veri toplama araçları olarak Ayaz (2016) tarafından geliştirilen “Çokkültürlülük Algı Ölçeği” ile Tanhan ve Şentürk (2011) tarafından geliştirilen “Sınıf İçi İstenmeyen Öğrenci Davranışlarına Yönelik Öğretmen Tutumları Ölçeği” kullanılmıştır. Verilerin analizi SPSS v.22 ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Analizler sonucunda öğretmenlerin çokkültürlülüğe ilişkin genel olarak olumlu algıya sahip oldukları belirlenmiştir. Fakat sınıf içi istenmeyen öğrenci davranışlarına yönelik öğretmen tutumlarında ise olumsuz yönde bir eğilim tespit edilmiştir. Öğretmenlerin çokkültürlülük algılarının cinsiyet, görev yapılan kurum, yurtdışında bulunma deneyimi, mülteci/göçmen/sığınmacı öğrencilere yönelik hizmet içi eğitim alma durumu, meslekî kıdem yılı ve öğretim yapılan sınıftaki öğrenci mevcuduna göre anlamlı bir şekilde farklılaşmadığı ancak Türkçeden başka bir dili konuşabilenlerin lehine anlamlı bir şekilde farklılaştığı belirlenmiştir. Sınıf içi istenmeyen öğrenci davranışlarına yönelik öğretmen tutumlarının ise Türkçeden başka bir dili konuşabilenlerin konuşamayanlara ve meslekî kıdem yılı 6-10 yıl arasında olanların 11-15 yıl arasında olanlara göre anlamlı bir şekilde farklılaştığı; diğer değişkenlerde herhangi anlamlı bir farklılaşmaya rastlanmadığı görülmüştür. Son olarak öğretmenlerin çok kültürlülük algıları ile sınıf içi istenmeyen öğrenci davranışlarına yönelik tutumları arasında anlamlı bir ilişki olmadığı tespit edilmiştir. Bu konuda öğretmen tutumlarının belirlenebilmesi için farklı veri toplama yöntemlerinin de işe koşularak daha kapsamlı araştırmaların yapılması önerilmektedir. Ayrıca öğretmenlerin sınıf içi istenmeyen öğrenci davranışlarına yönelik olumsuz tutuma sahip olmalarının altında yatan nedenler daha derinlemesine incelenebilir. Çokkültürlü sınıflarda görev yapan ve meslekteki ilk yılları olan öğretmenlere, istenmeyen öğrenci davranışlarına yönelik problemleri önleyebilmeleri için birtakım hizmet içi eğitimler de düzenlenebilir.

The Role of Halalan-Toyyiban Supply Chain Practices As Significant Predictors towards Excellent Customer Service Management
Authors: Zainuddin Anizah , Ridzwan Sarah Irdina , Ridzwan Sarah Batrisyia
Published: July 2020

This study examines the role of Halalan-Toyyiban supply chain practices (HTSCP) in the context of service management. Investigation was done to see how retail customers react to the role of HTSCP; that later influence their overall grocery experience. Halalan Toyyiban is a process associated with religious belief and as such it would be difficult to control and guarantee. From the consumer point of view, the process is difficult to evaluate and verify even after consuming the product. Therefore, consumers have to largely rely on the retailer on the reliable information to guide their purchase. In the traditional context of supermarket retailing, excellent customer service management could be interpreted as just meeting the expectations of the supermarket customers, not any sort of exceeding or falling short of their expectations. It is only recently that several of the supermarkets try to achieve competitive advantage by taking the responses of their customers beyond the level of just service satisfaction. These supermarket retailers are now towards exceeding their service expectations. This study attempts to fill this gap by examining the relationship between the roles of HTSCP as significant predictors towards excellent customer service management. Structured questionnaires were distributed to 489 supermarket customers using purposive sampling technique in the urban area. The instruments used for data collection for all variables in the study include halal inputs, halal processes, controls for halal, halal outputs and excellent customer service management were adapted from Halalan- Toyyiban Assurance Pipeline (Management System Requirements for Retailing) of Department of Standards Malaysia as well as from various studies using a five-point Likert scale. The results suggest that all determinants of HTSCP had a good relationship with excellent customer service management. This study identifies additional management efforts that can be implemented in enhancing good retail supermarket practice.

Published: July 2020

This research aims to propose TOPSIS model in evaluating, comparing, and ranking the Malaysian companies under the construction sector according to their financial performance using financial ratio. Previously, TOPSIS model and financial ratio as tools of measurement have been applied to evaluate, compare, and rank the financial performance of the companies. Nevertheless, there are not many researches have been done on TOPSIS model in Malaysia’s construction sector. Hence, this paper intends to fill in the loopholes by assessing the performance of the companies from the construction sector in Malaysia stock market by implementing the proposed model. Based from the findings, TOPSIS model was able to assess the companies’ financial performance and consequently rank them. The results from the study parallel with the study done by other investment agencies. Therefore, this method can be opted to substitute the fundamental and technical valuation that is commonly utilised by the investment analysts.
The Influence of Emotional Intelligence on Job Performance of Frontline Service Employees: The Moderating Role of Service Types
Authors: Othman Abdul Kadir , Syed Muhsin Syarifah Farrah Hanim
Published: July 2020

Service organizations rely heavily on humans to deliver the service. The only difference is the level of dependency on the human aspect for different types of service. Professional service depends mostly on humans to deliver the service but mass service is the least dependent on human element when delivering the service. Therefore, investigating the role of emotional intelligence in influencing employee performance by looking at different types of service is crucial because it has been widely accepted that emotional intelligence is the panacea to poor employee performance. This study involved employees from three different types of service organizations; higher learning institutions, insurance agencies and banks. A series of moderated multiple regression analyses were performed to analyze the research data and the results indicate the significant relationship between use of emotion and job, the relationship between use of emotion and career role, and the relationship between use of emotion and team role. Regarding the moderating role of service types, the study found that professional service moderates the relationship between self-emotion appraisal and job role, the relationship between others emotion appraisal and job role, the relationship between regulation of emotion and organization role, the relationship between use of emotion and career role, and the relationship between use of emotion and innovator role. Service shop, on the other hand, moderates the relationship between self-emotion appraisal and job role, and the relationship between use of emotion and team role. The implications of the study are discussed in the paper.
LA DIFESA POPOLARE NONVIOLENTA, UN TENTATIVO DI PRESENTAZIONE PARTENDO DALLA VISIONE DI THEODOR EBERT
Authors: ORBÁN Szabolcs
Published: July 2020

Nonviolent popular defense, an attempt at presentation starting from Theodor Ebert’s vision. Characteristic for the history of humanity is the way people chose to solve conflicts: through violence. Where the stronger one, the better prepared one validates its truth in a way that represents a disadvantage for the weaker, the less prepared one. In the given study, based on Theodor Ebert’s work, we want to present the nonviolent resistance. Based on the examples that come with experience, we would like to formulate some traits, which represent a fundamental element in solving conflicts. Taking Pope Francis’ encouragement in consideration, we would like to find a place for this in the Social Teaching of Church, because we talk about a modality, which provides a chance for the victory of truth regarding the inevitable conflicts of the human society, without violence or putting people’s life in danger.
LO SPARTITO DELLA LIBERTÀ NELLA LETTERA AI GALATI
Authors: AFRENȚOAE Mihai
Published: July 2020

The Song of liberty in the Letter to the Galatians. With the presentation of freedom and of its opposite, slavery, we tried to understand the reason that caused Paul to write to the Galatians. The research was based on occurrences of eleuth root, which are present in 2: 4; 3: 28; 4: 22, 23, 26, 30, 31; 5: 1, 13, that is, in all its thematic parts: autobiographical, doctrinal and hortatory. In addition to eleuth root, we met two other terms within the same semantic field of freedom or liberation: exelētai, from exaireō, with the meaning of “tear away”, “save”, “free from danger” (1: 4); and exagorasē, from exagorazō, which means “free”, “make good use of” (3: 13; 4: 5). These terms show a multidimensional freedom, condensed in freedom from sin and from this evil eon, as well as from the Jewish Law. The gift of freedom is highlighted by the indicative of salvation obtained in Christ, a gift watched and envied by some false brothers, who had infiltrated in the Galatian communities, in order to lure them into slavery (2: 4). In 3: 10, 13 Paul highlights also the liberation of the obligation of the Law. For Paul, to impose the Jewish Law, with its requirements, it would be synonymous with the return to the elements of the world (4: 3, 9), a return to being children (4: 1), that is, incapable of taking responsibility, worthy of freedom obtained in Christ. The intention of Paul is directed toward the invitation to become mature Christians, passing from the state of nēpios (4: 1) to huiothesia (4: 5b), remaining in the freedom offered from Christ, as a gift. In other words, for Paul, if there is the indicative, it follows also the imperative, as evidenced already in 5: 1, 13, 25, that is, the gift becomes responsibility. From the double aspect of slavery, under the pagan mentality and under the Law, it is evidenced that the freedom in Galatians can be analysed from an anthropological-ethical point of view.
LIEBE IST UNSERE MISSION. DAS KATHOLISCHE MISSIONSVERSTÄNDNIS
Authors: CSISZAR Klara A. , GENG Noémi
Published: July 2020

Love is our mission. The Catholic understanding of mission. The understanding of the catholic mission could be summed up in one short sentence: love is our mission! The Church was founded for no other but one reason: to follow the praxis of Jesus, to make God’s creating and healing love touchable every day in our world. The Church can realize this mission by stepping out of herself and going into mission, not only geographically, but existentially, to the wounds of the world. To the wounds of personal and global crises she brings the healing balsam of love. Pope Francis brings us closer to the rediscovery that the Church, as a dynamic community of Christ, is nothing else as a community of love. Because of it, she has always to renew her mission in two directions (in a dual sense) of love: love toward God and love toward people.

Published: July 2020

The Apostolic Exhortation Having It’s opening Line Christus Vivit, as a Current Realization of the Dialogue Goal of The Second Vatican Council. The so called „Christus Vivit” apostolic exhortation of Pope Francis linking to the updating objective (actualizing goal) of the Second Vatican Council marks in such way the path of pastoral care for young people, that although it is based on tradition, it is outlined to be adaptive to new situations. Therefore, illuminated by the signs of the times, it shows the way of the outreaching pastoral care. Based on this recognition, in the present study we attempt to illuminate the church’s teaching to youth in the documents of The Second Vatican Council, in the speeches of Pope Francis to them, and in the apostolic exhortation in question.
DAS SUBJEKTSEIN DER KIRCHEN IM KONTEXT EINER TRINITARISCHEN COMMUNIO-EKKLESIOLOGIE
Authors: VIK János
Published: July 2020

The Subjectivity of the Churches in the Context of a Trinitarian Communio-Ecclesiology. Since the Second Vatican Council, the local Church is no longer regarded as an imperfect part of the universal Church. Rather, the one Church of God is present in every liturgical act of the local Church. The communion of the local Churches (communio ecclesiarum), legitimately marked by their respective traditions and cultures, means unity in diversity and difference. The realization of the program of „participatio actuosa“, i.e. the subject becoming of all in the Church, is in mutual relation to the realization of the communio ecclesiology.
Problema y ejemplo: Los nueve cuadrados y la transformación del edificio fundacional de la Cooper Union
Authors: Estrella Lisseth
Published: July 2020

Enseñar con el ejemplo es parte fundamental de la estrategia pedagógica de John Hejduk. Sin mayores explicaciones, Hejduk relaciona su proyecto de transformación del edificio fundacional de la Cooper Union con el problema de los nueve cuadrados. Es un caso singular porque el edificio, lugar de la escuela de arquitectura, presenta a sus alumnos el ejemplo del problema utilizado para introducirlos a la arquitectura. Con información de archivo y referencias de personas que formaron parte de la escuela en este período – John Hejduk, Peter Eisenman, Rafael Moneo y Lorna McNeur - el artículo identifica que tanto problema como ejemplo comparten la misma estructura y define el método para relacionarlos: utilizar los nueve cuadrados como herramienta de análisis aplicando los conceptos de centro-periferia, fluidez-contención y estructura-plemento.  El resultado del trabajo ha llevado a comprender el contenido analítico del problema en relación con las herramientas del arquitecto: el paso de la planta a la sección en relación con los conceptos de espacio y tiempo.
El compositor como intelectual en Latinoamérica. Gustavo Becerra Schmidt y los límites de la Nueva Canción Chilena
Authors: Palacios Torres Pablo , Cortez Ismael
Published: July 2020

El presente trabajo versa sobre la figura del compositor chileno Gustavo Becerra Schmidt como músico intelectual en Latinoamérica y sobre el problema de la identidad en la obra «Revolución». Para esto, optamos por una óptica de comprensión histórica estética del problema de la identidad en la música, desde el romanticismo y el paradigma de la teoría especulativa hasta el problema de la Nueva Canción Chilena. Este continuum es puesto en crisis con el advenimiento de obras que incorporaron elementos sonoros y musicales ajenos a Latinoamérica y a la estética la Nueva Canción. Se analiza la obra de Becerra Schmidt «Revolución» para evidenciar cómo a través de su uso la Nueva Canción Chilena llega a los límites de su propuesta como una experiencia de la música popular en Latinoamérica.

High temperature stress can be detrimental to plants, resulting in reduced fruit yield and increased incidences of fruit disorders. One strategy that farmers can use to maintain or increase their yields in the face of a changing climate is to adjust of farm climate by using shade net on the trees. Such, the use of shade netting on Washington navel orange planted on the sandy soil in Al-Nubaria region, Egypt were studied during two successive seasons, either using a permanent shade throughout all the season or using a moveable shade for certain period from the first of March until the end of June for every season. Growth (No. of shoots/one meter branch, No. of leaves/shoot, shoot length and chlorophyll content of the leaves, leaf area and tree canopy), macronutrients (N, P, K, Ca, Mg) and micronutrients (Fe, Zn, Mn, Cu, Na) content in the leaves, fruit characteristics (number, weight, diameter, peel thickness, total soluble solids, total acidity and ascorbic acid), yield and crop efficiency, were determined. It can be concluded that covering Washington navel orange trees grown on sandy soil with shade net especial covering the trees for certain period was very effective at protecting orange trees and led to improve the growth, increase the yield and maintain fruit quality.

Regeneration is one of the most important methods in the massive proliferation of ornamental plants through micropropagation and genetic modification. Thin cell layering (TCL) technique, is a new introduction of micropropagation efficiency in producing optimized mass scale of crops. The horizontally placed TCL explants (tTCLs) was examined in Van der Salm (VS) basal medium in combination with different plant adjuvants (proline, glutamic acid, casein hydrolysate) to investigate their effect on callus induction and shoot regeneration of the explants. In order to produce healthy propagules of Rosa damascena Mill. on a large scale, a new cost-effective method of tissue culture has been established. The results indicated the positive effect of proline (0.5 gr/l) and glutamic acid (300 mg/l) in both callus induction and regeneration stage. Also, in rooting phase, different concentrations of IBA and NAA (0, 0.3, 0.6, 0.9 mg/l) in basal ½ Van der Salm (VS) medium were tested. It was observed that the best results were related to 0.3 mg/l IBA + 0.3 mg/l NAA in ½ Van der Salm (VS) medium.

Published: July 2020

In 2014–2015 at the experimental station of the University of Agriculture in Kraków, situated in Mydlniki near Kraków, Poland, experiments with intensive crop rotation in a high tunnel were conducted. The objectives concerned microclimatic zones in the tunnel and the yield and quality of butterhead lettuce (spring), cucumber (summer), and butterhead lettuce (autumn). Besides the properties of the soil in the high tunnel, a crucial role was played by microclimatic factors. The measurements showed variations in solar radiation, temperature and air humidity depending on the zone in the tunnel and the weather. Higher temperature in the centre of the tunnel was conducive to obtaining greater yields of spring lettuce and cucumber. In the spring and summer periods, the amounts of dry matter and total sugars in the edible parts of the cultivated vegetables were higher in the eastern and central zones of the tunnel. In the autumn, with less solar radiation, the amount of sugars in lettuce leaves was greater in the western zone. There was observable influence of the location in the tunnel from which samples were taken for analyses (zonal effect) on some physical parameters of the soil (bulk density, water capacity, and water-stability index).
Using Municipal Tourism Assets for Leveraging Local Economic Development in South Africa
Authors: Rogerson Christian M.
Published: July 2020

Tourism development can be a vital component of place-based development initiatives in the global South. The nexus of tourism and place-based development thinking in the global South and of the role of local governments is only beginning to be investigated by tourism scholars. This article explores the record of using tourism assets in one South African local municipality for leveraging local economic development. Evidence is drawn from the experience of the King Sabata Dalindyebo Local Municipality in South Africa's Eastern Cape province. The research results point to an unimpressive record on the part of local government in directing the use of local assets for assisting tourism development. Several challenges are revealed to explain the underperformance of potentially valuable local assets in this municipality. Institutional and governance shortcomings, including widespread corruption, underpin the observed weaknesses both in the everyday workings of local government in relation to service delivery and infrastructure support as well as its inability to implement plans for local economic development. Well-meaning policies proposed for tourism development are not implemented variously for reasons of funding, lack of local support, lack of entrepreneurialism by the municipality and lack of ability to implement because of capacity issues. Potential state assets which could bolster tourism and local development outcomes are not being realized and in many cases the assets themselves are in a state of deterioration because of neglect.
Assessing the level of greening in a major city: subjective and objective evaluation on the example of the city of Kyiv
Authors: Pleshkanovska Alla Mikhailivna
Published: July 2020

One of the ways to ensure the sustainable development of settlements is to improve comfort of living in urban areas. The formation of a developed landscaping system is one of the priorities of modern city development and provides an opportunity to realise the main functions of green areas of public use – ecological, historical, cultural, urban and social. Sufficiency or insufficiency of green areas is determined by indicators both objective (the level or area of landscaping per person), and subjective (the feeling of green space and comfort of urban areas). This study addresses both of these aspects. Significant differences in the findings of sociological surveys conducted earlier were also analysed. Residents of the city of Kyiv completed a questionnaire, which evaluated not only the existing greening system of the city, but also the perceived priority directions for its improvement. Four main criteria for assessing the quality of landscaping elements are proposed – environmental friendliness, contact, accessibility and attractiveness.

National energy sector management differs from country to country. Therefore, it is important to develop country-specific energy models to analyse the energy demand, structure and potential policy instruments. The paper presents a pathway for adaption and improvement of the standard TIMES model structure to the specific country requirements. The analysis is based on a three-sector (industrial, commercial and residential) case study of Latvia. Literature review presents experience of other research when developing different energy models as well as adapting the TIMES model structure. The main results show a distribution of the final energy consumption and the validation of the obtained results of the sectors studied. Method and intermediate results presented in the paper are part of an ongoing modelling process of Latvia’s energy sector.
