Timo de Rijk: 'We plant the seed'; interview
No full textArt historian Timo de Rijk was appointed Professor of Design, Culture and Society in Delft and Leiden last September. He calls this combination ‘a real breakthrough’. ‘Leiden University studies the workings of culture, while TU Delft aims at creating new things. These are fundamentally different approaches.

Educación Artística Comunitaria en Finlandia: entrevista a Timo Jokela
Full text linkEste artículo presenta un estudio sobre la educación artística comunitaria en la Universidad de Laponia en Finlandia. En primer lugar se analizan las líneas principales de este modelo formativo y de su plan de estudios. En segundo lugar se presenta una entrevista con Timo Jokela, Decano de la Facultad de Arte y Diseño de la Universidad de Laponia y director del Departamento de Educación Artística en esa misma Facultad. En la entrevista Timo Jokela habla de las relaciones entre arte, medio ambiente, comunidad y educación partiendo de su propia experiencia como artista y centrado en el contexto finlandés. También sobre los aspectos sociales, culturales, artísticos y educativos que están implícitos en el modelo de educación artística comunitaria que se pone en práctica, como itinerario formativo, en la Universidad de Laponia.
This article presents a study on community-based art education at the University of Lapland in Finland. First, the main guidelines of this training model and its curriculum are analysed. Second, the author includes an interview with Timo Jokela, Dean of the Faculty of Art and Design of The University of Lapland in Finland and Director of the Department of Art Education at the same faculty. In the interview Timo Jokela draws upon his own experience as an artist in Finland to talk about the relationships between art, the environment, community and education. He also talks about the social, cultural, artistic and educational aspects, which are central to the community-based art education scheme in place at The University of Lapland
What can we tell about monetary policy synchronization and interdependence over the 2007-2009 global financial crisis?
Full text linkWe investigate the synchronization and nonlinear adjustment dynamics of short-term interest rates for France, the UK and the US using the bi-directional feedback measures proposed by Geweke (1982) and appropriate smooth transition error-correction models (STECM). We find strong evidence of continual increases in bilateral synchroni-zation of these rates from 2005 to 2009 as well as of their lead-lag causal interactions with a slight dominance of the US rate. Our results also indicate that short-term interest rates converge towards a common long-run equilibrium in a nonlinear manner and their time dynamics exhibit regime-switching behavior.
Ei-ladattavan hybridiauton esilämmitys : vaikutukset järjestelmän toimintakykyyn
Full text linkTämän opinnäytetyön tarkoituksena oli tutkia ja selvittää sähköisen esilämmityksen vaikutuksia hybridijärjestelmän toimintaan. Työssä tarkasteltiin erityisesti vaikutuksia matkaan joka ajettiin pelkästään käyttämällä sähköä auton hybridiakustosta. Samalla seurattiin auton polttoaineen keskikulutuksen muutoksia. Nämä vaikutukset saatiin parhaiten näkyviin, ajamalla samoja reittejä esilämmitetyllä ja ilman esilämmitystä olevalla autolla sekä vertailemalla näistä saatuja tuloksia.
Työssä käytettävä hybridiauto on tekijän omistuksessa ja omassa käytössä. Autoa käytetään pääsääntöisesti taajamaliikenteessä, mutta myös maantie- ja moottoritienopeuksissa. Ajaminen koostuu tekijän normaalista auton käytöstä. Työhön kuuluu kolme eri vaihetta. Ensimmäisessä vaiheessa autoa esilämmitettiin ennen jokaista kotona suoritettua liikkeellelähtöä, työn tekemisen aikana voimassa olleiden suosituksien mukaisesti. Toisessa vaiheessa autoa ei esilämmitetty ennen ajoon lähtöä. Kolmannessa vaiheessa tulokset kirjattiin muistiin ja analysoitiin.
Hybridijärjestelmän käyttö vähentää polttoaineen kulutusta ja päästöjä verrattuna pelkästään polttomoottorilla varustettuun autoon. Auton esilämmitys parantaa sekä ajoturvallisuutta että mukavuutta, kun lämpötila on pakkasella tai lähellä nollaa. Esilämmitetty moottori saavuttaa nopeammin normaalin käyntilämpötilan verrattuna moottoriin, jota ei ole esilämmitetty ennen ajoon lähtöä. Kun moottori käy normaalilla käyntilämpötilallaan, päästöt ja polttoaineen kulutus pienentyvät verrattuna kylmänä käyvään moottoriin. Myös käynnistyksen päästöjä saadaan pienennettyä esilämmityksellä.
Autolla on ajettu pääsääntöisesti lyhyitä matkoja, jolloin järjestelmän polttomoottori ei ole saavuttanut normaalia käyntilämpötilaansa. Työn tuloksena havaittiin, että esilämmitys vaikuttaa myönteisesti hybridijärjestelmän kykyyn käyttää pelkästään sähkömoottoria auton liikuttamiseen. Tämä tulos on ennakko-odotusten mukainen.The purpose of the thesis was to study the effects of electronic preheating on the operation of a hybrid system. The impact of the trip, which was driven by using only electricity from the car hybrid battery, was specifically examined in this thesis. At the same time, changes in the average fuel consumption of the car were tracked. The effects were best noticed driving the same routes with a preheated car and the car without preheating, and comparing the results.
The hybrid car used in the work is owned and used by the author. The car is mainly used in urban area but also at highway speeds. Driving consists of the author´s normal car use. The work involved three different phases. In the first phase, the car was preheated before each start-up at home, in accordance with the recommendations in force at the time of the work. In the second phase, the car was not preheated before start-ups. In the third phase, the results were reported and analyzed.
Using a hybrid system in a car reduces fuel consumption and emissions compared to a car with an internal combustion engine only. Car preheating improves both driving safely and comfort when the temperature is low or near zero degrees. A preheated engine reaches faster its normal operating temperature compared to an engine that has not been preheated before driving. When the engine is running at its normal operating temperature, emissions and fuel consumption are reduced compared to a cold engine. Start-up emissions can also be reduced by preheating.
The car has been mainly driven for short distances, whereupon the internal combustion engine of the system has not reached its normal operating temperature. The study shows that preheating has a positive effect on the ability of the hybrid system to use only an electric motor to move the car. This result is in line with the expectations
Cittadinanza amministrativa e democrazia partecipativa
No full textThis paper examines the definition of participation focusing on the idea of
administrative participation and the concept of administrative democracy.
Therefore, the author analyses the alteration of citizenship notion as the result of the change in
the relationship between citizens and public administration: the adoption of the law 241/1990 –
together with other laws – and the gradual opening of administrative institutions give new tools to
citizens to create an administrative democracy
Tagging of Biomedical Articles on CiteULike: A Comparison of User, Author and Professional Indexing
Full text linkThis paper examines the context of online indexing from the viewpoint of three different groups: users, authors, and professional indexers. User tags, author keywords and descriptors were collected from academic journal articles, which were both indexed in Pubmed and tagged on CiteULike, and analysed. Descriptive statistics, informetric measures, and thesaural term comparison shows that there are important differences in the use of keywords between the three groups in addition to similarities which can be used to enhance support for search and browse. While tags and author keywords were found that matched descriptors exactly, other terms which did not match but provided important expansion to the indexing lexicon were found. These additional terms could be used to enhance support for searching and browsing in article databases as well as to provide invaluable data for entry vocabulary and emergent terminology for regular updates to indexing systems. Additionally, the study suggests that tags support organisation by association to task, projects and subject while making important connections to traditional systems which classify into subject categories
