Annotation. A comparative assessment of statistical indicators of the work of maternity care facilities allowed us to characterize the quality of medical services provided to pregnant women, women in labor and women giving birth, to assess changes in perinatal morbidity and mortality under the influence of the development and achievements of modern obstetrics. The aim of the study was to analyze the qualitative indicators of the activity of maternity care institutions in the city of Vinnytsia in the year 2022 for modern forecasting of promising directions for the restoration of the national reproductive potential of Ukraine. The statistical report of the Department of Health of Vinnytsia for the year 2022 served as the source material. The epidemiological statistical method was used during the work, specifically an analytical approach. According to which, a retrospective analysis of official statistics data from the Department of Health of Vinnytsia for the year 2022 was applied. Retrospective analysis and the epidemiological method of determining the relative values ​​of morbidity indicators were used, and the data were processed using the "Statistica 5.0" program package. It is established that due to the increase in the population of Vinnytsia through internal migration and the introduction of the principle of extraterritoriality in healthcare, the number of births was 3858. Among the women who gave birth in Vinnytsia in 2022, 33% were internally displaced persons from the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine. The coverage of prenatal care for pregnant women and the coverage of medical examinations for both organized and unorganized populations constituted 98.2%. The percentage of home births was 0.02%, and the percentage of criminal abortions in 2022 was at 0%. The number of premature births was 2.7%, the perinatal mortality of premature babies was 0.2%, and the perinatal mortality of babies was 6.2%. So, the analysis of the quality indicators of the work of the obstetric service indicates the high quality of providing medical services to pregnant women, women in labor and women giving birth, as well as the absence of maternal mortality.
Cardiovascular diseases in Ukraine: results of a retrospective analysis of the morbidity and current problems of its monitoring
Authors: Kovtun G. I. , Orlova N. M.
Published: September 2023

Annotation. Monitoring the population's morbidity is an essential component of effective public health management and the healthcare system. The study aimed to conduct a retrospective analysis of cardiovascular disease (CVD) morbidity in Ukraine and its regions for the years 2010-2017, as well as to compare it with European and European Union countries. The study utilized data from the Medical Statistics Center of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine, obtained from state statistical reporting forms (form No. 12) and analyzed using statistical methods. The regional differentiation of primary morbidity and prevalence indicators of CVD in Ukraine was assessed using the amplitude of regional distribution, upper and lower quartiles, and the coefficient of regional variation. A comparison of age-standardized CVD morbidity indicators in Ukraine with European and European Union countries for the years 2010-2019 was based on data from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) international epidemiological study, updated for 2019. It was found that in 2017, over 22 million adult residents in Ukraine suffered from CVD, with more than 1.7 million new cases of CVD registered annually among the adult population. CVD ranked first in the prevalence of diseases among the adult population (with a relative share of 37.4%) and second in the structure of primary morbidity (10.3%). Age-standardized rates of primary CVD morbidity in Ukraine exceeded similar indicators in European countries by 1.6 times and in EU countries by 1.9 times, and this significant gap was primarily due to high national rates of ischemic heart disease and stroke. In Ukraine, there is significant territorial differentiation in the levels of CVD morbidity and prevalence (coefficients of regional variation exceeding 20%). The study identified regions with consistently high levels of CVD morbidity. The unfavorable epidemiological situation regarding CVD in Ukraine necessitates the development and implementation of comprehensive state and regional interdisciplinary prevention programs, taking into account positive European experience in CVD control. Solving the problem of preventing CVD morbidity is impossible without establishing a modern monitoring and evaluation system of the epidemiological situation regarding CVD at the regional and national levels, which should utilize not only information on hospitalization, disability, and mortality due to CVD but also revitalize data collection and synthesis on CVD incidence, prevalence, and risk factors at a new methodological level, using modern information technologies.

The peculiarities of the fractionation of rare earth elements (REE) were studied in three genetically similar types of soils in the territory of the humid subtropics of Russia. REE contents were determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry with full acid decomposition of samples. The following soils were studied: burozems formed on mudstones in the Mzymta river valley; burozems transformed to the state of abrozems formed on similar rocks in Sochi; and brown soils on carbonate rocks in the territory of the Utrish Reserve. Burozems formed in natural conditions on mudstones are characterized by REE fractionation with the predominance of their middle subgroup. In urban soils similar in genesis, an increase in the content of elements of the light subgroup is observed. These changes are due to their transformation as a result of urban load. Over the past 100 years, the soils of the city have undergone significant alkalinization, the index of pH in them increased by 2 units. The relationship between REE fractionation and soil acidity is confirmed by the REE distribution curve for the soils of the Utrish Reserve. The latter are distinguished by an even greater predominance of the light REE subgroup, due to the increased alkalinity of soils caused by the formation of soils on carbonate rocks.
Cardiovascular aging in patients with chronic kidney disease: pathogenesis and potential therapeutics
Authors: Alkhayyat Safa , Alhoori Zahraa , Abdalbary Mohamed
Published: September 2023

Patients with chronic kidney dysfunction have an elevated risk for various cardiovascular diseases. Even in the early stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD) the prevalence of cardiovascular events and mortalities is extremely high if compared with age-matched general population. With worsening of kidney function this risk is growing intensely. There are many traditional and non-traditional risk factors that can lead to cardiovascular disease in CKD. Cardiovascular rather than kidney failure, per se, is the main cause of mortality in CKD. The increase of calcification promoters and the decrease of inhibitors leads to the development of vascular calcification in the early stages of CKD. In this regard, CKD mimics cardiovascular system aging with a premature onset and an accelerated progression.Various non-pharmacological and pharmacological interventions have been studied to retard premature cardiovascular aging in CKD. In this review article, we are summarizing the pathogenesis, risk factors, and possible management strategies of cardiovascular disease in CKD.

Published: September 2023

Constituir-se professor é um processo contínuo ao longo da vida e da carreira e a investigação no campo da formação de professores aproxima os estudos sobre o desenvolvimento profissional docente e a pesquisa autobiográfica ao implicar os docentes em processos de produção de narrativas. Nesse contexto, indagamos de que maneiras a produção e socialização de narrativas contribuem para a constituição da profissionalidade docente? A escrita autobiográfica instaura ações reflexivas na constituição da profissionalidade docente pelo acesso ao repertório de memórias de vida, formação e ação pedagógica. Em uma pesquisa colaborativa de 2016 a 2019 reunimos professores experientes, iniciantes e licenciandos em uma comunidade de aprendizagem online organizada em módulos temáticos. Os resultados mostram a importância da aprendizagem reflexiva apoiada pelos pares que permite adentrar o universo singular/coletivo da profissionalidade docente, a fim de compreender seu caminhar para si, caminhando com o outro.

Travma Sonrası Stres Bozukluğunun Önlenmesine Yönelik Korku Belleği Üzerine Yapılan Müdahaleler
Authors: İLHAN Çınar Furkan , KIŞLAL Sezen
Published: September 2023

Klasik korku koşullaması, klinik öncesi çalışmalarda travma sonrası stres bozukluğunu (TSSB) modellemede kullanılmaktadır. Yeniden-bütünleştirme sürecinde anılar belleğe geri çağrıldığında, bellek değişime açık bir hale gelir ve müdahale edilmeye uygundur. Koşullu uyarana (KU’lu uyaran) maruz bırakma ile tetiklenen yeniden-bütünleştirme sürecindeki müdahalelerin sadece maruz bırakılan KU’lu uyaranın tetiklediği korku tepkisinde azalmaya neden olduğu, korku ile ilişkili diğer ipuçlarına genellenmediği gözlenmiştir. Ancak günlük yaşamda, birden çok KU, korku uyandıran olayla ilişkilendirilebilir. Bu nedenle, son çalışmalarda tüm korku belleğinin yenidenbütünleştirme sürecine girmesine yol açtığı düşünülen, koşulsuz uyaran (KU’suz uyaran) ile geri çağırma prosedürüne odaklanılmıştır. KU’suz uyaran ile geri-çağırma ile tetiklenen yeniden-bütünleştirme sürecinde uygulanan müdahalelerin daha etkili olduğu düşünülmektedir. Bu derleme çalışmasında, KU’lu uyaran veya KU’suz uyaran ile aktive edilmiş korku belleği çalışmalara atıfta bulunularak, edinilmiş korkunun davranışsal ve farmakolojik müdahalelerle nasıl söndürülebileceğinden bahsedilmektedir. Ayrıca, korku belleğinde rol oynayan beyin bölgeleri ve cinsiyet farklılıklarının etkisi de ele alınmıştır. Bu derlemenin amacı, korku bozukluklarının daha etkili tedavi yaklaşımlarıyla nasıl çözülebileceğine yönelik alana katkıda bulunmaktır.
Anoreksiya Nervoza Tarihinin Psikanalitik Perspektiften Değerlendirilmesi
Authors: DEMİR HEKİMOĞLU Eylül Ceren , ÜNAL Elif , GENÇÖZ Tülin
Published: September 2023

Antik dönemlerden günümüze değin tarihte kendine yer bulan anoreksiya nervoza, tanımı ve etiyolojisi ile birlikte yıllar içerisinde çeşitli tartışmalara neden olmuş; etiyolojisi ve tanımı yıllar içinde evrilmiştir. Bu evrim, psikanalitik yaklaşımda da kendi göstermiş ve belirli dönemlerde ana akım psikiyatriyi de etkilemiştir. Bu çalışmada da anoreksiya nervozanın, antik dönemlerden bugüne olan evrimi psikanalitik çerçeve ve Lacan’ın teorisi bağlamında ele alınmıştır. Lacan’ın anoreksiya nervoza hakkındaki görüşleri, kendi teorisinin gelişimine paralel olarak değişiklik göstermiş ve Lacan, anoreksiya nervozayı öznenin Büyük Başka ile olan ilişkisi bağlamında değerlendirmiştir. Bu ilişkilenme erken ve orta dönem Lacanyen metinlerde anoreksik öznenin “reddetmesi” ve “hiçlik yemesi” kavramları bağlamında simgeseldeki eksikliğin gerçek üzerinden telafi edilmeye çalışması şeklinde ele alınırken Lacan’ın geç dönemlerine ait metinlerde kastrasyonun reddi ve jouissance’ın sürdürülmesi bağlamında da yorumlanmıştır. Bu değişiklik anoreksiya nervoza, anlamı ve işlevi olan bilinçdışı bir mesaj mıdır yoksa anlamdan yoksun, bilinçdışının yerine bedenin konuştuğu bir sinthome mudur tartışmalarına neden olmuştur. Bu çalışmada da anoreksiya nervozanın tarihi psikanalitik çerçeve içerisinde ve Lacan’ın metinleri bağlamında kronolojik olarak ele alınmıştır.

Цель статьи – проанализировать практику участия стран АСЕАН в миротворческих операциях ООН. Страны Юго-Восточной Азии и в национальном качестве, и в коллективном формате как организация АСЕАН рассматривают участие в миротворческих операциях ООН как важную часть собственной международной деятельности. Сотрудничество рассматриваемых двух международных организаций в области обеспечения мира и безопасности получило институциональное оформление, в том числе в Плане действий АСЕАН и ООН (2016–2020), включающего сотрудничество с миротворческими силами ООН. На фоне некоторых неудачных миротворческих операций примером успеха представляются многолетние усилия ООН по остановке и сдерживанию ожесточенного греко-турецкого конфликта на Кипре. Представители двух стран АСЕАН – Камбоджи и Индонезии, также внесли свой вклад в успех голубых касок на Кипре.

Вьетнамско-китайские отношения в связи с наличием существующих между странами сложностей можно рассматривать как спорные и противоречивые, как отношения одновременно и сотрудничества и борьбы. В статье исследуется вопрос того, какую роль играет идеология во вьетнамско-китайских отношениях в исторической перспективе и в современности. Авторы высказывают мнение о том, что несмотря на наличие разногласий, руководство обеих стран использует идеологическую схожесть и партийную дипломатию как средства сглаживания существующих между странами противоречий. Именно идеология задает этим отношениям привилегированный характер, и она же становится гарантом того, что обе страны будут максимально воздерживаться от скатывания к конфронтации.

The paper analyses major characteristics of the investment climate in New Zealand, a country that has taken effective measures to enhance its commercial attractiveness and regularly tops the list of the world's most comfortable places to do business. Specifically, issues related to New Zealand’s investment climate, the Ease of Doing Business criteria and their forecasted relevance to 2023 are explored in detail. More specifically, the article focuses on several aspects – legal, including an international law perspective, issues of international arbitration and bilateral investment processes. Plus to that, it reveals main changes in the criteria of the Ease of Doing Business rating, which is no longer published after 2020. Taking New Zealand as a case study, the author makes a brief overview of major features of doing business and scrutinizes selected legal aspects of investing in the country. Lastly, major Ease of Doing Business criteria are extrapolated into 2023. According to the author, ample evidence indicates that the overall business and investment milieu in New Zealand has been and remains generally positive.
CONTROVERSIAL ISSUES OF THE CIVIL WAR IN BURMA/MYANMAR (Part 1.)

Published: September 2023

Гражданская война в Мьянме (до 1989 – Бирма) является одним из самых длительных вооружённых конфликтов в мировой истории, который не окончен до сих пор. К причинам конфликта следует отнести длительный перерыв в бирманской государственности из-за британской оккупации, сложные межэтнические отношения, экстремизм местной коммунистической партии. В статье ставится проблема периодизации гражданской войны, перечисляются знаковые события, которые можно принять за формальное начало конфликта. Отстаивается тезис о невозможности выстроить непротиворечивую периодизацию конфликта. Наряду с борьбой армий в Бирме-Мьянме шла острая борьба идей: демократического социализма, связанного с интеллектуальным наследием Аун Сана и премьер-министра страны У Ну; авторитарного «бирманского социализма» генерала Не Вина; коммунизма, олицетворяемого Компартией Бирмы. В 1988 г. обозначился крах социалистических экспериментов и возрождение буддийского фундаментализма при поддержке нового военного правительства, в свою очередь идеи демократического социализма трансформируются в бирманский левый либерализм. На всём протяжении гражданской войны в неё были в разной степени втянуты Великобритания, Китай, США и ряд других государств. Автор указывает на возможные пути изучения мьянманской истории российскими исследователями.
Estrategias diagnósticas de la coartación de aorta en el período prenatal
Authors: Barros Ramírez Dayana , Alarcón María José , Chuba Loján Yaleni
Published: September 2023

La coartación de aorta (CoAo) constituye el 5 % al 10 % de todas las cardiopatías congénitas, con una prevalencia aproximadamente de 4 por cada 10 000 neonatos, estableciéndose en el séptimo lugar de las cardiopatías congénitas. Es caracterizada por el estrechamiento y reducción del flujo del istmo de aorta en el segmento que enfrenta al ductus arterioso o el segmento proximal al mismo con o sin hipoplasia del arco aórtico.La coartación aorta severa en fases neonatal y lactantes tiene gran potencial de morbimortalidad, por lo que su detección debe ser precoz y oportuno, lo que abaliza su investigación prenatal, aunque la tasa de detección no supera el 40 %, es decir, en la mayoría de los casos su diagnóstico es solo de sospecha y únicamente podrá confirmarse al nacimiento, esta dificultad se relaciona con los factores inherente a la circulación Fetal y también a la edad Gestacional.El diagnostico o presunción de CoAo en fase Prenatal se basa en visualizar por Ecocardiografía Doppler Color, la asimetría de cavidades cardiacas y/o grandes vasos con dominancia derecha que son signos indirectos y poco especifico especialmente en gestaciones tardías o buscar signos directos con mayor especificidad, como la hipoplasia de arco, el cociente istmo/ductus o el shelf contraductal. La principal limitación de esta valoración, es su bajo valor predictivo positivo, en especial en edades gestacionales tardías, pero su rendimiento predictivo se ve favorecido cuando se realizan combinación de modelos multiparamétricas.Este enfoque nos ofrece la oportunidad de planificar el parto en un centro adecuado, la prevención del cierre precoz del ductus arterioso, mejorar las condiciones pre/operatoria y por ende mejor calidad y sobrevida.
Yushchenko – Chernavkin Radio Method: A Milestone in the History of Scientific Institutionalization of Biotelemetry
Authors: Vladzymyrskyy Anton
Published: September 2023

A novel method of dynamic biotelemetry (“radio method”) was first developed in the USSR in the early 1930s. This method enabled studying physiological parameters of biological objects in their natural environment, and implied creating a technical complex consisting of a device placed on the biological object under study to capture a particular physiological parameter, radio equipment for wireless (only) transmission and reception the respective parameters, and the means for recording radio-transmitted data. The author of the idea of radio method was A. A. Yushchenko, head of the physiological department of the Communist Academy’s Institute of Higher Nervous Activity; its technical implementation was achieved by L. A. Chernavkin, junior researcher and engineer who worked at the Institute; and was used as a research method in the studies carried out by the Department members V. Ya. Kryazhev (1931) and S. A. Kharitonov (1932, 1937). In animal experiments radio method enabled obtaining radically new data about reflexes and higher nervous system activity. The attempts were made to use this method in human physiology research (inter alia, at the specially created laboratory at the I. V. Stalin First State Automobile Plant). Studies in the field of radio method were terminated because of Yushchenko’s untimely death and objective technical complexities. The next stage in the development of biotelemetry only began in the late 1940s.
Dynamic Model of Economic Agents Including Interaction and Delay Effects
Authors: Kilmatov Talgat
Published: September 2023

Abstract: The dynamic model of economic growth of several agents is presented. This is a system of non-linear differential-difference equations. The model takes into account the interaction of economic agents and the delay effect. Some simple analytic particular solutions are shown. These analytical solutions allow some clear economic interpretation. The comparative scenario quantitative calculations are given. The calculations are presented for time period of a decade for the typical global development rate of 3% per year. There are two main scenarios. The first scenario of cooperative or isolated agent development is considered. There is the scenario of the agent development due to use the other partners. The consequence of isolation is the backlog of 60% per decade. The second scenario is the time delay-lead effect to use the achievements of other agents. A lead of one - two years is considered. In this case, ceteris paribus, the dynamic growth of the agent is 1.5 times ahead of the others. More effective growth occurs with the faster and advance reaction rate to partner achievements. In this case there is the effect of the multiplicative accumulation of advantage. This scenario can be interpreted as the illustration of the accelerated economic growth of post-war Japan.
INTEGRAL REPRESENTATION OF HYPERBOLICALLY CONVEX FUNCTIONS
Authors: Lopotko O.
Published: September 2023

An article consists of two parts.

In the first part the sufficient and necessary conditions for an integral representation of hyperbolically convex (h.c.) functions $k(x)$ $\left(x\in \mathbb{R}^{\infty}= \mathbb{R}^1\times\mathbb{R}^1\times \dots\right)$ are proved. For this purpose in $\mathbb{R}^{\infty}$ we introduce measures $\omega_1(x)$, $\omega_{\frac{1}{2}}(x)$. The positive definiteness of a function will be understood on the integral sense with respect to the measure $\omega_1(x)$. Then we proved that the measure $\rho(\lambda)$ in the integral representation is concentrated on $l_2^+=\bigg\{\lambda \in \mathbb{R}_+^{\infty}= \mathbb{R}_+^1\times\mathbb{R}_+^1\times \dots\Big|\sum\limits_{n=1}^{\infty}\lambda_n^2<\infty\bigg\}$. The equality for $k(x)$ $\left(x\in\mathbb{R}^{\infty} \right)$ is regarded as an equality for almost all $x\in\mathbb{R}^{\infty}$ with respect to measure $\omega_{\frac{1}{2}}(x)$.

In the second part we proved the sufficient and necessary conditions for integral representation of h.c. functions $k(x)$ $\big(x\in \mathbb{R}_0^{\infty}$ $\mathrm{~is~a~nuclear~space}\big)$. The positive definiteness of a function $k(x)$ will be understood on the pointwise sense. For this purpose we shall construct a rigging (chain) $\mathbb{R}_0^{\infty}\subset l_2 \subset \mathbb{R}^{\infty}$. Then, given that the projection and inductive topologies are coinciding, we shall obtaine the integral representation for $k(x)$ $\left(x\in \mathbb{R}_0^{\infty}\right)$
ON THE DECOMPOSITION PROBLEM FOR FUNCTIONS OF SMALL EXPONENTIAL TYPE
Authors: Voitovych Kh.
Published: September 2023

The technique of decomposition for functions into the sum or product of two functions is often used to facilitate the study of properties of functions. Some decomposition problems in the weighted Hardy space, Paley-Wiener space, and Bergman space are well known. Usually, in these spaces, functions are represented as the sum of two functions, each of them is "big" only in the first or only in the second quarter. The problem of decomposition of functions has practical applications, particularly in information theory. In these applications, it is often necessary to find those solutions of the decomposition problem whose growth on the negative real semi-axis is "small". In this article we consider the decomposition problem for an entire function of any small exponential type in $\{z:\Re z<0\}$. We obtain conditions for the existence of solutions of the above problem.
MODELING STABILITY OF DIFFERENTIAL-DIFFERENCE EQUATIONS WITH DELAY
Authors: Vizinska I.
Published: September 2023

Differential-difference and differential-functional equations are mathematical models of ma\-ny applied problems in automatic control and management systems, chemical, biological, technical, economic and other processes whose evolution depends on prehistory. In the study of the problems of stability, oscillation, bifurcation, control, and stabilization of solutions of linear differential-difference equations, the location of the roots of the corresponding characteristic equations is very important. Note that there are currently no effective algorithms for finding the zeros of quasipolynomials. When studying the approximation of a system of linear differential-difference equations, it was found that the approximation of nonsymptotic roots of their quasi-polynomials can be found with the help of characteristic polynomials of the corresponding approximating systems of ordinary differential equations . This paper investigates the application of approximation schemes for differential-difference equations to construct algorithms for the approximate finding of nonsymptotic roots of quasipolynomials and their application to study the stability of solutions of systems of linear differential equations with many delays. The equivalence of the exponential stability of systems with delay and of the proposed system of ordinary differential equations is established. This allowed us to build an algorithm for studying the location of non-asymptotic roots of quasi-polynomials, which are implemented on a computer.

Computational experiments on special test examples showed the high efficiency of the proposed algorithms for studying the stability of linear differential-difference equations.

We consider finite class of functions defined by parameters $e_0,e_1,e_2$ belonging to the set $A=\{0,1\}$. The digits of the continued fraction $A_2$-representation of the argument

$$x=\frac{1}{\alpha_1+\frac{1}{\alpha_2+_{\ddots}}}\equiv \Delta^A_{a_1...a_n...},$$
where $\alpha_n\in \{\frac{1}{2};1\}$, $a_n=2\alpha_n-1$, $n\in N$, and the values of the function are in a recursive dependence, namely:
$$f(x=\Delta^A_{a_1...a_{2n}...})=\Delta^A_{b_1b_2...b_n...},$$
\begin{equation*}
b_1=\begin{cases}
e_0 &\mbox{ if } (a_1,a_2)=(e_1,e_2),\\
1-e_0 &\mbox{ if } (a_1,a_2)\neq(e_1,e_2),
\end{cases}
\end{equation*}
\begin{equation*}
 b_{k+1}=\begin{cases}
b_k &\mbox{ if } (a_{2k+1},a_{2k+2})\neq(a_{2k-1},a_{2k}),\\
1-b_k &\mbox{ if } (a_{2k+1},a_{2k+2})=(a_{2k-1},a_{2k}).
\end{cases}
\end{equation*}
In the article, we justify the well-defined of the function, continuous and nowhere monotonic function. The variational properties of the function were studied and the unbounded variation was proved.
Logik und Geschlecht? Empirische Daten zu Logikeinführungen im Philosophiestudium an deutschen Universitäten1
Authors: Kraft Tim
Published: September 2023

Although the underrepresentation of women in academic philosophy is well-known and hard to overlook, philosophers started to pay more attention to the actual data on and potential explanations of the underrepresentation of women in philosophy only in the last decade and predominately
in anglophone countries. The data I present in this paper deal with introductory logic courses at German universities (gender of textbook authors, gender of logic course instructors, student grades by gender at one university). Two results are particularly noteworthy: For one, logic teaching
in Germany is currently predominantly male and even more male than philosophy teaching as a whole. For another, there is no evidence for any differences between grades of female and male students. The student grade data, however, illustrate how statistical phenomena like Simpson's paradox
can explain how male students can appear to achieve better grades than female students even if there is no underlying difference: When correcting for students’ major (philosophy vs. STEM), logic grades of male and female students are remarkably similar. Although the scope of the
data presented here is limited, they allow to add further details to an emerging map of the profession. I close with some suggestions for avoiding stereotyping logic as “male”.
Analysis of damage control of thin plate with piezoelectric actuators using finite element and machine learning approach

Published: September 2023

In recent studies, piezoelectric actuators have been recognized as a practical and effective material for repairing cracks in thin-walled structures, such as plates that are adhesively bonded with piezoelectric patches due to their electromechanical effects. In this study, we used the finite element method through the ANSYS commercial code to determine the stress intensity factor (SIF) at the crack tip of a cracked plate bonded with a piezoelectric actuator under a plane stress model. By running various simulations, we were able to examine the impact of different aspects that affect this component, such as the size and characteristics of the plate, actuator, and adhesive bond. To optimize performance, we utilized machine learning algorithms to examine how these characteristics affect the repair process. This study represents the first-time machine learning has been used to examine bonded PZT actuators in damaged structures, and we found that it had a significant impact on the current problem. As a result, we were able to determine which of these parameters were most helpful in achieving our goal and which ones should be adjusted to improve the actuator's quality and reduce significant time and costs.

Al6061 and its composites are widely employed in applications requiring high strength and impact resistance. Heat treatment, particularly ageing, is a well-established method for enhancing the mechanical properties of these composites. However, the influence of post-ageing cooling methods on the impact energy absorption capacity of Al6061 and its composites remains inadequately understood. This investigation aims to examine the impact energy absorption of Al6061 and its composites after ageing at 460°C for 2 hours, employing different cooling methods, including furnace cooling, air cooling, and water cooling. The composites were produced using the stir casting technique with varying weight fractions of graphite and SiC particles based on Taguchi's design of experiments. Charpy impact tests were conducted using a specialised testing machine. The results reveal that the impact energy absorption capacity of the composites is influenced by the cooling method employed after the ageing treatment. Furnace cooling demonstrated the highest impact energy absorption capacity compared to the other cooling methods, exhibiting a 28% increase compared to the monolithic aluminium alloy. Furthermore, it was observed that the impact energy absorption capacity of the composites did not improve with an increase in the weight fraction of SiC particles, while the addition of graphite negatively impacted the absorption capacity.
