Ocena krajinske zgradbe in gozdnih robov na Kamniško Bistriški ravni
No full textNa območju Kamniško Bistriške ravni smo analizirali ekološke in socioekonomskedejavnike, ki vplivajo na krajinsko zgradbo gozdnih robov. Na celotnem območju smo analizirali podatke o dejavnostih prebivalstva, migracijah zaradi zaposlitve, rabi zemljišč, območje pa smo razdelili po višinskih pasovih in naklonih zemljišča. Na podlagi teh podatkov in ocen lahkosklepamo, kje se bodo površine v prihodnosti zaraščale. Ugotovili smo, dase na območju zaraščajo le manjše površine. Ocenili smo 101,2 kilometra gozdnega roba. Naša ocena kaže na stanovitne gozdne robove. V prihodnosti lahko pričakujemo zaraščanje le posameznih manjših parcel v višjih nadmorskih višinah, v okolici samotnih kmetij, v nižinskem predelu so možne krčitve gozdazaradi močno razvitega kmetijstva in vse večjega priseljevanja ljudi na obrobje mest.On the area of Kamniška Bistrica flat land we have analysed the landscape ecological factors and the structure of forest borders. On the total area we have analysed the attributes of population, such as: the most represented activities, working migrations, land use of agricultural area, the area was divided according to the inclination and the altitude level. On the basis of these data and estimations, we can conclude, where the potential areas for spontaneous afforestation are. We have found out, that only small part of total area is being afforested. We have evaluated 101,2 kilometer of forest border. Our estimation indicates the stable forest borders. In the future we can expect afforestation only of separate small plots in the higher altitude levels, near secluded farms, while in the lower altitude levels, the deforestation is possible because of higly developed farming and a bigger migration of the people to the periurban areas
Richtlijn ontwerp kunstwerken: ROK 1.0
No full textDe Richtlijnen Ontwerp Kunstwerken (ROK) is een Kader binnen de Werkwijzer Aanleg van RWS. Het is een verzameling van generieke eisen waaraan het ontwerp en de uitvoering van een nieuw te bouwen kunstwerk moet voldoen. De ROK geldt ook voor nieuwe onderdelen van bestaande kunstwerken, wanneer deze onderdelen worden vervangen, of voor verbredingen wanneer kunstwerken worden uitgebreid. Het ontwerpen van kunstwerken is een creatief proces dat in alle vrijheid plaats moet vinden. Het product wat hierbij ontstaat, moet echter wel betrouwbaar, duurzaam en functioneel zijn. Om dit aan te tonen zijn eisen en randvoorwaarden nodig. Het overgrote deel van deze eisen is opgenomen in de Eurocodes met bijbehorende Nationale Bijlagen. In aanvulling hierop heeft RWS nog een aantal specifieke eisen, omdat de EC-eisen niet streng genoeg zijn, of omdat ze niet voorkomen in de EC\u92s + NB\u92s. Ook bieden de EC\u92s + NB\u92s soms keuzemogelijkheden die via deze ROK worden ingevuld. De ROK beoogd alle richtlijnen te omvatten voor de kunstwerkcategorieën die in paragrafen 1.4 en 1.5 zijn gedefinieerd. Voor de ordening van de eisen is de structuur van de Eurocode gevolgd. De EC\u92s met NB\u92s bevatten de eisen voor Constructieve Veiligheid en Duurzaamheid. Er zijn geen EC-delen beschikbaar voor de KW-categorieën tunnels, natte kunstwerken, beweegbare bruggen, geluidsschermen en verkeerskundige draagconstructies. Hoewel veel van de constructie-onderdelen van deze kunstwerken berekend kunnen worden met de EC\u92s, zijn er specifieke grondslagen, belastingen en materiaaleisen nodig zijn om betrouwbare kunstwerken te realiseren. Hierin is voorzien door in de ROK specifieke eisen op te nemen per categorie. Voor het ontwerp van nieuw te bouwen kunstwerken zijn ook de Europese uitvoeringsnormen van belang. Deze zijn genoemd bij de aanvullingen op EC 2 Betonconstructies, EC 3 Staalconstructies en EC 7 Geotechnisch Ontwerp. In deze ROK zijn als aanvulling op de EC\u92s ook andere richtlijnen genoemd, zoals CUR-rapporten, CROW-richtlijnen, e.d. en eigen RWS-richtlijnen. Daarnaast zijn er RWS-richtlijnen in het laatste hoofdstuk genoemd. Deze richtlijnen zijn ook nodig bij het ontwerpen van kunstwerken, maar gaan over andere zaken dan de constructieve veiligheid en de duurzaamheid. Omdat het voor het ontwerpproces nuttig is, bevat de ROK soms ook handreikingen en Best Practices. In de ROK gaat het over het ontwerp van de kunstwerken, met eventuele mechanische uitrustingen, en niet over het ontwerp van de afmetingen die vanuit functionele eisen nodig zijn. Ook het ontwerp van installaties, die toegevoegd moeten worden vanwege de functionele eisen, zijn geen onderwerp van deze ROK. Indien een ontwerp wordt overwogen dat aan afwijkende, gelijkwaardige eisen voldoet, dient hiervoor vooraf toestemming te worden verkregen van de beheercommissie van de ROK

The Formation of Japan-ROK Security Relations
No full textThis open access book argues that Japan-ROK security relations were formed in the process of adjusting the threat perception gap and policy conflict between the two countries. Conventional analyses using a “cooperation or conflict” dichotomy are too limited to capture the complex coordination of interests that security relations entail. In comparison, this book focuses on how, as they interacted on security concerns, Japan and the ROK had different threat perceptions and foreign policy orientations that resulted in friction over the means and methods of responses and shines a light on the changes apparent in the adjustment process. The author aims to elucidate how Japan and the ROK approached security cooperation over the period from the late 1960s to the mid-1970s. As Japan and the ROK looked to reconcile the differing political positions involved in these security and détente requirements, they explored and began to show new developments in bilateral security cooperation. This book provides a new perspective on Japan-ROK security relations and through this lens a broader view of international relations in East Asia. It also proves useful in understanding bilateral cooperation in the security field following the normalization of diplomatic relations between the two countries

Design and synthesis of new glucosamine derivatives for the application in transition-metal catalytic systems
No full textKobaltovi katalizatorji se v zadnjih letih vedno bolj uporabljajo za tvorbo vezi ogljik-ogljik. Prednost kobalta pred ostalimi prehodnimi kovinami je predvsem njegova dostopnost, nizka toksičnost ter nizka cena. Zaradi naštetih razlogov spadajo katalitski sistemi, ki kot katalizator uporabljajo kobaltove komplekse, med bolj ekološke. Reakcije z njimi potekajo v dokaj milih pogojih, za potek reakcije pa potrebujemo še bazo in ligand, s katerim kobalt tvori kompleks predhodno, ali pa in-situ. Tekom izdelave magistrske naloge smo sintetizirali nove derivate glukozamina kot ligande za katalitske sisteme. V teh sistemih z uporabo Grignardovih reagentov in s pomočjo kobalta in ligandov stereoselektivno tvorimo nove vezi ogljik-ogljik. Sintetizirali smo 8 potencialnih ligandov, od katerih smo nato tri uporabili v izbranem katalitskem sistemu.
Sintetizirane spojine smo testirali tudi na encimih acetilholinesteraza, butirilholinesteraza in monoaminooksidaza A in B. Zaviralno aktivnost sta izkazovali dve spojini, in sicer na encimu butirilholinesteraza.
Nazadnje smo ligandom določili tudi sposobnost kelacije nekaterih prehodnih kovin. Komplekse s kobaltom (Co2+) je tvorilo šest spojin, z železom (Fe2+) pa ena. Spojine, sposobne kelacije prehodnih kovin, se lahko potencialno uporabijo kot zdravilne učinkovine, kot kelatorji, ali pa kot učinkovine, kjer je prehodna kovina del zdravilne učinkovine in igra pri klinični aplikaciji ključno vlogo. Anorganska farmacevtska kemija je v uporabi sicer še vedno na drugem mestu za organsko kemijo, a številne raziskave v zadnjem desetletju dokazujejo njen potencial na številnih področjih medicine in farmacije.
Sintetizirane derivate glukozamina smo tako uporabili za tri različne namene:
- kot ligande v katalitskih sistemih, kjer smo tvorili nove vezi ogljik-ogljik- kot potencialne zaviralce encimov AChE, BChE, MAO-A in MAO-B- kot kelatorje nekaterih prehodnih kovin.Cobalt-based catalytic systems are being more widely used in the carbon-carbon bond formation. In comparison to some other transition metals, cobalt is easily accessible, has low toxicity and lower cost, which makes cobalt-based catalytic systems more eco-compatible and eco-friendly. Reactions take place under mild conditions. For the reaction to occur, a base and a ligand need to be added. The ligand forms a complex with the cobalt, either beforehand or in-situ. This Master\u27s thesis is focused on the design of new glucosamine derivatives, to be used as ligands in catalytic systems, where carbon-carbon bonds were formed stereoselectively, using Grignard reagents and cobalt as a catalyst. We synthesised 8 potential ligands, of which three were used as ligands in the catalytic system.
We tested the synthesised compounds on enzymes: acetylcholinesterase, butyrylcholinesterase, monoamino oxidase A and monoamino oxidase B. Two compounds showed inhibitory activity on butyrylcholinesterase.
Lastly, we determined the ligands\u27 chelating ability of certain transition metals. Six compounds formed complexes with cobalt (Co2+), whereas one compound formed complexes with iron (Fe2+). Compounds with chelating abilities can potentially be used as drugs – either as drugs that target metal ions in some form (chelators), or metal-based drugs, where the metal ion is crucial to the clinical application. Pharmaceutical industry is still dominated by drugs of organic origin, but numerous researches in the past decade have shown the potential of the medicinal inorganic chemistry.
Synthesised glucosamine derivates can potentially be used as:
- ligands in catalytic systems, where carbon-carbon bonds are formed- inhibitors for AChE, BChE, MAO-A and MAO-B- chelators of certain transitiona metals
The reliable promise of middle power fighters: The ROK military's COIN success in Vietnam and Iraq
No full textabstract: Counterinsurgency (COIN) is a long process that even great powers struggle with. Nevertheless, South Korea as a middle power was successful with COINs in Vietnam and Iraq. What were the drivers for the Republic of Korea (ROK) military's success? This dissertation maintains that the unusual nature of missions coupled with political/socio-cultural advantages are sufficient conditions for success of the middle power COIN. COIN missions are seen as unusual to middle powers. A rare mission stimulates military forces to fight harder because they recognize this mission as an opportunity to increase their national prestige. COIN mission success is also more probable for middle powers because their forces make the best of their country's political/socio-cultural advantages. The ROK military's COINs are optimal cases to test these hypotheses. The ROK military's COIN in Vietnam was an extremely rare mission, which increased its enthusiasm. This enthusiasm was converted into appropriate capabilities. By identifying battleground dynamics, the ROK forces initially chose an enemy-oriented approach based upon the method of company-led tactical base, and then later introduced a population-led method. South Korea's political/socio-cultural advantages also contributed to its military success in Vietnam. The Confucius culture that South Koreans and Vietnamese shared allowed the ROK forces to win the hearts and minds of the Vietnamese population. The mission in Iraq was also a rare and important one for national prestige. Accordingly, South Korean forces were equipped with pride and were enthusiastic about missions in Arbil. They changed their organization from a rigid one to a more flexible one by strengthening civil-military units. The ROK military possessed the ability to choose a population-centric approach. South Korea's political and cultural climate also served as an advantage to accomplish COIN in Iraq. The culture of Jung allowed ROK soldiers to sincerely help the local Iraqis. This project contributes to developing a theory of the middle power COIN. The findings also generate security policy implications of how to deal with contingent situations led by the collapse of the North Korean regime and how to redefine the ROK military strategy for the future.Dissertation/ThesisPh.D. Political Science 201
