Prioritization Of Plants In The Choghart Iron Ore Mine Reclamation Project By Promethee Method And Comparison With The Results Of The Fuzzy Topsis Method (Case Study: Choghart Iron Ore Mine)
Get PDFMining operations as an activity play a role in environmental changes, which by utilizing new technologies, it is possible to decrease and minimize the environmental damage, while exploiting them principally. The reclamation of the mine is the most important plan to restore the mined land to the original state, and then to restore the area in different ways. When a case study was conducted in Choghart iron ore mine, the species were selected according to the suitability with initial factors of the reclamation plan including the type of mined land reuse, the climatic conditions, and the nature of the soil. Then, the secondary factors (criteria) were determined, and the decision matrices were obtained based on the questionnaires completed by the experts, and the plant species were prioritized based on the regional spectacle criteria, resistance against disease and insects, power and growth, access to plant species, economic efficiency, soil conservation and water supply and prevention of various types of pollution, by multi-criteria decision-making methods. It should be noted that the weights of the criteria are compared by Fuzzy AHP method and general prioritization of the options by PROMETHEE and Fuzzy TOPSIS methods.

The Mediating Role of the Brand Preference in Bank Advertising and Brand Loyalty
Get PDFNowadays, it is always a good place to be searched by customers for doing their business and financial affairs and their decisions are constantly changing and comparing with various questions of themselves and the viewing and touching services and advertisements by banks in order to focus on financial and banking activities. Banks are attracting customers\u27 satisfaction by providing effective and creative services and advertisements and focus their loyalty towards themselves. The effective factors on the effect of advertising on customer loyalty were tested and the mediator variable of brand preference was analyzed for a more in-depth study. A questionnaire was distributed among banking customers in Isfahan in order to test the hypotheses. The collected data were analyzed by path analysis model. Advertising and brand preference were identified as effective variables on customer loyalty to the bank. The Positive Role of the mediator variable of the brand preference on increasing brand loyalty was confirmed using the route analysis model, SmartPLS 3.2.10, the partial least squares method. According to the results of this study, although advertising can be introduced as an effective factor in relation with the effect of brand preference on brand loyalty, but the customers distinguish satisfaction with banking services and professionalism of the bank on its advertising. In this way, bank advertising in the long run can”™t guarantee customers loyalty
Content and conditions for forming the cluster of pedagogic competences in the system of values of design studies undergraduates
Get PDFOne of the burning issues of the Russian system of higher education is lack of mechanisms for interaction with the labour market. Both employers and university graduates have noted a tendency of job placement irrelevant to the degree field. Many Design Studies graduates, due to high competition in the labour market, choose to go in for teaching. An academic university, in contrast to a teacher training higher institution, can offer only a limited part of the curriculum for teacher training of students. In this regard, the problem of forming a cluster of pedagogic competences among academic students at the stage of professional training is important nowadays. It includes acquiring professionally important skills, personal qualities, theory, professional skills and developing a system of values essential for a teacher. The system of values as part of teacher training of students of non-teacher training institutions consists in promoting the formation of integral personal characteristics that act as direct indicators of the formation of their pedagogic competences. The authors of the article have conducted a study to determine the content and conditions for the formation of a cluster of pedagogic competences in the system of values of Design Studies undergraduates of Kazan Federal University, related them to similar values of teachers working in the field of general education, suggested ways to optimize the process of providing teacher training for academic students and grounded the leading role of teaching practice in the matter

Análisis de dominio institucional de organizaciones camagí¼eyanas: Universidad de Camagí¼ey, CIGB y Centro Meteorológico Provincial
Get PDFEl análisis de dominio considera que la evaluación de la ciencia debe realizarse a partir del conocimiento de las prácticas sociales de los científicos. Así, se pueden estudiar dominios de conocimiento como comunidades discursivas consistentes en un conjunto de actores sociales, quienes comparten una visión del mundo y presentan determinadas estructuras individuales de conocimiento. El enfoque bibliométrico ha mostrado su utilidad como método y herramienta para el análisis de dominio. En particular, el análisis de dominio institucional, ha sido definido como un tipo de estudio bibliométrico que permite representar, de forma muy aproximada, el perfil investigador de una determinada institución. La presente investigación pretende estudiar, desde esta perspectiva, algunas de las entidades que desarrollan actividad científica en la provincia Camagí¼ey: Universidad de Camagí¼ey (UC), Centro de Ingeniería Genética y Biotecnología (CIGB), Centro Meteorológico Provincial (CMP). Para ello se analizó, a través de indicadores de producción, impacto y colaboración, la producción científica de cada una de estas organizaciones registrada en las bases de datos Web of Science y Scopus en el período 2001-2013. El estudio mostró el predominio de la coautoría en los trabajos de las tres instituciones, lo que evidencia la influencia de la colaboración en las comunidades discursivas analizadas. Entre los resultados destaca la pluralidad investigativa de la UC con publicaciones científicas pertenecientes a 10 categorías temáticas. También sobresale el CMP al presentar el mayor índice de internacionalización
