    Previous work demonstrated that the Frumkin isotherm is inadequate to model the competitive coadsorption of species with different saturation coverages, such as hydrogen and bromide coadsorption on Pt(100) [N. Garcia-Araez et al., J. Electroanal. Chem., 2006, 588, 1]. Therefore, Monte Carlo simulations were necessary to determine meaningful values of the microscopic parameters (namely, energies of adsorption and interaction). In the present work, an alternative analytical isotherm is developed, by taking into account the occupation of two sublattices, which together compose the whole lattice of adsorption sites. Despite its relatively simple mathematical form, this isotherm presents, under certain conditions, a significant improvement over the classical Frumkin isotherm for the modeling of competitive adsorption processes, thus providing a closer agreement with results from Monte Carlo simulations. Finally, it is demonstrated that the sublattice-model isotherm will be generally applicable to systems in which the formation of segregated adlayers, whose structure is not explicitly taken into account in the model, is energetically unfavorabl

    Diplomsko delo je osredinjeno na radijske oglase in prevzeto besedje, ki se v njih pojavlja. Radijski oglasi spadajo v posebno podzvrst publicistične funkcijske zvrsti. Zanje so značilna številna odstopanja od običajne jezikovne rabe, saj je njihova prvotna naloga vzbuditi pozornost naslovnika. Ker so radijski oglasi zasnovani izključno na zvoku, je izbira besed v tej besedilni vrsti še posebej pomembna. Z namenom vzbuditi pozornost in približati se ciljni skupini ter zaradi novih izdelkov, ki prihajajo na tržišče, v oglasnih besedilih zasledimo številne prevzete in tuje besede. Teh je veliko zlasti v oglasih, ki vabijo k zabavi in predstavljajo izdelke oz. storitve s strokovnih področij. Besede, ki so sloveščini že dodobra prilagojene, so prevzete večinoma iz nemščine. Novejše prevzete besede, ki še nimajo ustaljenega zapisa in so trenutno priljubljene le pri mlajših skupinah ljudi, ter citatne besede pa prihajajo v naš jezik preko starih in novih medijev neposredno iz angleščine. V jezikovnih priročnikih sta prevzetim besedam poleg razlage največkrat dodana označevalnika poudarjalno oz. publicistično, besedam pa je velikokrat pripisana tudi nevtralnejša dvojnica.Graduation thesis is focused on radio commercials and loanwords used in them. Radio commercials belong to a special sub style of the publicistic functional style. Typical of them are numerous deviations from the neutral language, since their primary role is to excite curiosity of the addressee. Radio commercials are made exclusively of the sound, therefore the choice of words is particularly important in this text type. Numerous loanwords and foreign words are used in order to excite curiosity, to come near a target group and due to the new products on the market. They are often found in commercials which offer entertainment or present products and services of specialized areas. The loanwords fully adapted to Slovenian language were imported mostly from German. Meanwhile, the new loanwords, the spelling of which is not yet fixed and are momentarily popular among younger people, and foreign words are imported into Slovenian directly from English through old and new media. In dictionaries labels are added to their explanations, usually publicistic or expressive, in many cases a neutral double is provided

    Mestna občina Koper je v okviru svojih pristojnosti pravno uredila pogrebno in pokopališko dejavnost na svojem območju z Odlokom o upravljanju pokopališč in o pokopališkem redu (Uradne objave, št. 6/97) ter Odlokom o pogrebni dejavnosti (Uradne objave, št. 20/02). Oba predpisa definirata pogrebno in pokopališko dejavnost kot lokalno gospodarsko javno službo. V obeh odlokih so tudi določene pravice in obveznosti izvajalcev oziroma upravljalcev in uporabnikov omenjenih gospodarskih javnih služb. Odlok o upravljanju pokopališč in o pokopališkem redu pravno ureja pokopališko dejavnost, katera obsega izvajanje načrtovanega razvoja ter urejanje in vzdrževanje pokopališč oziroma infrastrukture na pokopališčih, opuščanje pokopališč, vodenje in vzdrževanje pokopališkega katastra in oddajanje grobov v najem ter načine pokopov. Na drugi strani Odlok o pogrebni dejavnosti pravno ureja pogrebno dejavnost, ki obsega pripravo grobov, organizacijo pogrebov ter druge storitve v zvezi s pripravo pokojnikov za pokop, organizacijo pogrebnih svečanosti in prevoze pokojnikov. Navedena odloka sta bila sprejeta na podlagi Zakona o pokopališki in pogrebni dejavnosti ter o urejanju pokopališč /ZPPDUP/, ki je prenehal veljati z uveljavitvijo Zakon o pogrebni in pokopališki dejavnosti /ZPPDej/ v letu 2016. Na podlagi ZPPDej občinski predpisi izdani po ZPPDUP prenehajo veljati, torej tudi oba odloka Mestne občine Koper. Kljub temu, kar smo ravno kar povedali se oba odloka Mestne občine Koper, ki pravno urejata pogrebno in pokopališko dejavnost uporabljata naprej. Obveznost Mestne občine Koper je, da v predpisanem roku, ki ga določa ZPPDej, to pa je eno leto od uveljavitve novega zakona uskladi svoje predpise z novo zakonodajo. V primeru, da tega ne stori bodo občinski predpisi, ki urejajo pogrebno in pokopališko dejavnost neustavni in nezakoniti.The City municipality of Koper has according to its jurisdiction, arising under the constitution and law, legislate the funeral and cemetery service in the boroughs of Koper. Accordingly this was accomplished by adopting the following bylaws: the Decree of cemeteries governance and cemeteries management and the Decree of funeral service. Both define funeral and cemetery service as a local public utility service. Moreover both decrees also specified the rights and obligations of operators and/or managers and users of the aforementioned public utilities. The Decree of cemeteries governance and cemeteries management legally regulates the cemetey service, which comprises the implementation of the planned development and maintenance of cemeteries and cemeteries infrastructure, graveyards abandonment, management and maintenance of the cemetery cadaster, letting graves and also methods of burial. On the other hand, Decree of funeral service legally regulates the funeral service, including the preparation of graves, the organization of funerals and other activities in relation to the preparation of the deceased for burial, organization funeral ceremony of the deceased and transportation of the deceased. Both of the above mentioned decrees were adopted on the basis of the Law on cemetery and funeral service and on the regulation of cemeteries /ZPPDUP/, which is no longer applicable. Thus the Republic of Slovenia has adopted a new legal act which is the Law of funeral and cemetery service /ZPPDej/. On the basis of ZPPDej municipal regulations issued by ZPPDUP expire, hence both decrees of the City municipality of Koper. Regardless of what we have just told, both decrees of the City municipality of Koper, which are legally regulating the funeral and cemetery service continue to apply. The City municipality of Koper is obliged to align its regulations with the new legislation, during the timeframe specified by the ZPPDej, corresponding to one year from the entry into force of the new law. In case failure the municipal regulations which regulate funeral and cemetery service will be unconstitutional and therefore illegal

    No full text
    Po svetu se bančni trg sooča z nepredvidljivimi spremembami, ki so povezana s tveganji. V zadnjih letih so se na tem področju dogajale velike spremembe, posebno v Sloveniji, ko je postala enakopravna članica Evropske unije. Poleg večje konkurence, ki jo je prinesel ta dogodek, so banke izpostavljene tudi večjim tveganjem na področju kreditnega, tržnega, likvidnega in obrestnega tveganja. Osrednja naloga bank je deponiranje denarja svojih komitentov ter posojanje tistim, ki denar potrebujejo. Pri svojem delu se tako srečuje s tveganjem, da ne bo ustvarila dobička. V kolikor banka ne prepozna in ne reagira pravočasno, jo lahko pripelje v likvidnostne težave. Zato mora sproti ocenjevati in meriti tveganja ter pripraviti postopke za njegovo obvladanje. Namen diplomskega seminarja je opisati tveganja, ki so prisotna pri bančnem poslovanju, s posebnim poudarkom na obrestnem tveganju Banke Koper, ki za zavarovanje pred njim uporablja različne finančne instrumente, kot so terminska obrestne mera, obrestna zamenjava in obrestna opcija. Da bi se čim bolj pripravili na obrestno tveganja pa v Banki Koper sproti ugotavljajo in merijo tveganja, izvajajo razne izračune, stres teste, kontrole, nadzore, poročanja ipd.Worldwide, the banking market is facing unpredictable changes that are associated with risks. In recent years in this field, major changes have occurred, particularly in Slovenia, when she became an equal member of the European Union. In addition to increased competition, which has brought this event, banks are exposed to a higher risk on field of credit, market, Liquidity and interest rate risk. The main task of the bank is to deposit money of their clients and lending to those who need money. Banks work also faces the risk of not generating the profit. If the Bank does not recognize and does not react in time, it can lead to liquidity problems. Therefore, bank has to regularly assess and measure risks and prepare restraining procedures. The purpose of the thesis is to describe the risks that are present in banking business, with a particular focus on interest rate risk of Banka Koper, which uses various financial instruments such as time interest rate, interest rate swaps and interest rate options as insurance. In order to best prepare for interest rate risk in the Banka Koper they promptly identify and measure risk, carry out different computations, stress tests, control, monitoring, reporting, etc.

    Kadar govorimo o lokalni skupnosti, govorimo o družbeni skupnosti na določenem ozemlju, ki lahko zajema več delov te skupnosti oziroma naselij. Gre za skupnost, ki je nastala naravno zaradi naseljevanja ljudi na določenemu ozemlju, prebivalce te skupnosti pa združujejo skupni interesi in potrebe. Za njeno uresničevanje teh se organizirajo v neko strukturo, ki temelji na normah in pravilih, kar pripelje do lokalne samouprave. Temeljna oblika lokalne samouprave v Sloveniji je občina, ki je lahko razdeljena na več ožjih delov. V diplomskem delu proučujemo sodelovanje občine in njenega ožjega dela. Kot primer smo vzeli Mestno občino Koper in njen ožji del, Krajevno skupnost Bertoki. Ugotovljeno je bilo, da Mestna občina Koper zelo dobro sodeluje s Krajevno skupnostjo Bertoki, kar je zelo pomembno za izvajanje vseh nalog. Mestna občina Koper ima zelo pomembno vlogo, saj je Krajevna skupnost Bertoki, ki ima lastna finančna sredstva, v veliki meri odvisna tudi od finančnih sredstev občinskega proračuna, poleg tega pa so tudi vse končne odločitve prepuščene v odločanje občinskim organom. Krajevna skupnost Bertoki ima kot ožji del Mestne občine Koper tako imenovano posvetovalno vlogo, kjer njeni prebivalci sodelujejo in s participacijo tudi sooblikujejo lokalno politiko in s tem celotno samoupravno lokalno skupnost.When we talk about a local community, we are talking about a social community in a specific territory, which may include several parts of that community or settlements. It is a community that has arisen naturally as a result of human settlement in a specific territory and whose inhabitants are united by common interests and needs. To achieve these, they organise themselves into a structure based on norms and rules, leading to local self-government. The basic form of local self-government in Slovenia is the municipality, which may be divided into several smaller parts. In this thesis, we examine the relationship between a municipality and its smaller part. We take as an example the Municipality of Koper and its smaller part, Sub-local community of Bertoki. It was found that the Municipality of Koper cooperates very well with the Sub-local community of Bertoki, which is very important for the performance of all tasks. The Municipality of Koper has a significant role, because the Sub-local community of Bertoki, which has its own financial resources, also depends to a large extent on the municipal budget, and all final decisions are left to the municipal authorities. As a smaller part of the Municipality of Koper, Bertoki has a so-called consultative role, where its inhabitants participate and, through participation, co-shape local policy and the entire self-governing local community

    Building communities for the exchange of learning objects: theoretical foundations and requirements

    No full text
    In order to reduce overall costs of developing high-quality digital courses (including both the content, and the learning and teaching activities), the exchange of learning objects has been recognized as a promising solution. This article makes an inventory of the issues involved in the exchange of learning objects within a community. It explores some basic theories, models and specifications and provides a theoretical framework containing the functional and non-functional requirements to establish an exchange system in the educational field. Three levels of requirements are discussed. First, the non-functional requirements that deal with the technical conditions to make learning objects interoperable. Second, some basic use cases (activities) are identified that must be facilitated to enable the technical exchange of learning objects, e.g. searching and adapting the objects. Third, some basic use cases are identified that are required to establish the exchange of learning objects in a community, e.g. policy management, information and training. The implications of this framework are then discussed, including recommendations concerning the identification of reward systems, role changes and evaluation instruments
