30 Years of EPR for Packaging in Germany - achievements and outlook
( Ursula Denison¸ M. A. ) 한국폐기물자원순환학회 2022 ISSE 초록집 Vol.2022 No.-
Germany is the pioneer in implementing Extended Producer Responsibility(EPR) for packaging. EPR is working quite well - high recycling targets, comfortable household collection for consumers, cost reductions through investments and technology for producers. The biggest challenge in creating packaging circularity lies with post-consumer plastics. All too often, these plastics are recycled into low-quality applications, due to lack of demand for high-quality applications. What is needed to close the loop for plastics? Which solutions already exist, and what is needed to create an impulse for more and better plastics recycling? The Green Dot system has some answers and suggestions regarding policy, technology and strategy, focussing on pragmatic solutions which preserve the autonomy of producers on the one hand and advance material circularity and sustainable use of plastics on the other.
THE IMPACT OF SERVICE BRAND PERSONALITY ON BRAND AFFECT, BRAND TRUST AND BRAND LOYALTY
Ursula Bougoure,Dominique Greer,Ben Smith 글로벌지식마케팅경영학회 2014 Global Marketing Conference Vol.2014 No.5
This study builds upon the scant brand personality (BP) literature in services and highlights its applicability to services marketing, which is critical given increasing interest in building favourable service brands. This study examines the impact of Geuens, Weijters and De Wulf’s, (2009) BP measure, an arguably theoretically superior measure of BP to Aaker’s (1997), into an accepted nomological net by Chaudhuri and Holbrook (2001), and tests the extent to which BP dimensions determine behavioural outcomes in services (Geuens et al., 2009).
Innovation Factory and Innovation Atelier Business Design for ‘Routinized Innovation’
Ursula Deplazes,Wolfgang Deplazes,Roman Boutellier KINFORMS 2009 Management Review Vol.4 No.1
The paper aims at addressing the challenge how to design the firm’s innovation activities while taking into account requirements stemming from the progressive routinization of innovation, the need for ambidexterity and contingency. The authors adopt a perspective of business design and introduce the complementary concepts of ‘Innovation Factory’ and ‘Innovation Atelier’. In combination with findings from a series of case studies of business design, the approach builds on insights stemming from systems theory, economic theories of growth, process philosophy, theories of business design, and theories of contingency on organization. The authors support their argument with a case study of a Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) manufacturer.
Modeling of coupled THMC processes in porous media
Kowalsky, Ursula,Bente, Sonja,Dinkler, Dieter Techno-Press 2014 Coupled systems mechanics Vol.3 No.1
For landfill monitoring and aftercare, long-term prognoses of emission and deformation behaviour are required. Landfills may be considered as heterogeneous porous soil-like structures, in which flow and transport processes of gases and liquids interact with local material degradation and mechanical deformation of the solid skeleton. Therefore, in the framework of continuous porous media mechanics a model is developed that permits the investigation of coupled mechanical, hydraulical and biochemical processes in municipal solid waste landfills.
Eicker, Ursula,Strzalka, Aneta,Erhart, Tobias,Balestieri, Jose Antonio Perrella Sustainable Building Research Center 2011 International journal of sustainable building tech Vol.2 No.1
The paper presents monitoring results from the implementation of energy efficient buildings, renewable energy supply systems and energy management in a sustainable neighborhood in Germany. The whole quarter has low energy standard buildings, which have been monitored for heating and electricity consumption. About 80% of the heating energy demand and 50% of the electricity consumption of the whole area is supplied by a wood fired co-generation plant with 1 MW electrical output and 5.3 MW thermal power output. In summer the heat from the network is used for decentralized absorption cooling in one of the office buildings. The main performance results of this monitored area are presented and the potential for replication are discussed.
E-learning motivation and educational portal acceptance in developing countries
Maldonado, Ursula Paola Torres,Khan, Gohar Feroz,Moon, Junghoon,Rho, Jae Jeung Emerald Group Publishing Limited 2011 ONLINE INFORMATION REVIEW Vol.35 No.1
<B>Purpose</B> - The purpose of this paper is to: empirically validate a modified unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) model by adding an "e-learning motivation" construct in the South American context; try to determine the role of e-learning motivation in the use and adoption of e-learning systems and conversely the effect of technology on students' e-learning motivation; and to test region and gender as moderators in the model. <B>Design/methodology/approach</B> - A survey method was used to collect data from 47 schools located at different regions: the coast, Andes, and jungle of Peru. The partial least square technique was used for data analysis. <B>Findings</B> - It was found that "e-learning motivation" and "social influence" had a positive influence on behavioural intention, while "facilitating condition" had no effect on e-learning portal use. Furthermore, use behaviour had a positive influence on e-learning motivation. Also found was the moderating role of "region". <B>Research limitations/implications</B> - The analysis is carried out in a single country, thus, caution should be taken in generalisation of the results. <B>Practical implications</B> - The findings will help policy makers and practitioners in developing countries to better understand students' e-learning motivation. <B>Originality/value</B> - By adopting the UTAUT model, a new construct of "e-learning motivation" is added, and applied to the South American context.
