The concept of the impact of market orientation on company performance
PublicationThe current explanation of the impact of market orientation on company performance is based on the search for competitive advantage, understood as offering the greatest value to customers. However, the development of economic thought has led to the understanding that it is the economic value that a company creates through its product that forms the basis for gaining competitive advantage. Therefore, it was deemed necessary to revise...

The Drawing Paradigm between Representation and Interaction with Virtual Image
PublicationTraditional drawing involves drawing on some surface, often a plane, e.g. a sheet of paper, a school board or a wall. This type of drawing therefore takes place in two dimensions of this surface. Transferring this activity to a computer, or rather to the surface of its screen, did not change the two-dimensional nature of this action. Practically all applications today, from Paint to sophisticated computer-aided design tools, still...

The Effect of Minimum Actuation Limit in Shape Control of a Single-Layer Dome Frame
PublicationThis paper describes the significance of the minimum actuation limit per actuator while controlling the shape of a single-layer frame dome. The algorithms that perform optimum shape controlling allow the user to assign the minimum allowable actuation per actuator, which means the actuators with an actuation of less than the assigned amount are assumed to be passive; thus, they are excluded. In this study, the deformed shape of...

The effect of using jug-type water filters on selected metals concentration in tap water – a case study
PublicationIn this study, the effect of the filtration process on Na, K, Mg, Ca, Fe and Zn concentration in water, using filters from one of the leading European manufacturers, was investigated. The increase in Na (up to 300%) and K concentration (up to 320%) at the beginning of jug filter usage was reported. A decrease in Ca, Fe and Zn concentration was observed. Standard filters remove 80–90% of Mg from tap water at the beginning of the...

The Effect of Varying the Light Spectrum of a Scene on the Localisation of Photogrammetric Features
PublicationIn modern digital photogrammetry, an image is usually registered via a digital matrix with an array of colour filters. From the registration of the image until feature points are detected on the image, the image is subjected to a series of calculations, i.e., demosaicing and conversion to greyscale, among others. These algorithms respond differently to the varying light spectrum of the scene, which consequently results in the feature...
