The main problem of machine learning for control systems of unmanned underwater vehicles is objectively very small samples of real data. The study aim was to develop an approach to the creation of synthetic data describing underwater objects for as the samples for training and validation in machine learning of control systems for auton-omous unmanned underwater vehicles. The subject of the study was a variety of underwater objects because real information about the shape, size and their external images is very limited. The data augmentation method was used, which makes it possible to obtain additional data on underdetermined objects of observation from the initial data while maintaining the classification features. Eight models have been developed that imitate the influence of various factors of the aquatic environment and allow using various augmentation methods (changing the position, adding noise, glare to the image, defocusing to create fuzziness; fragmentation, etc.) to obtain an almost unlimited number of images of any objects of man-made activity immersed in underwater environment, to varying degrees similar to the reference. Examples of the use of augmentation models that take into account changes in illumina-tion, transparency and the presence of an underwater landscape are given. Such synthetic (model) images may be the basis of a training set for machine learning to recognize and identify underwater objects. The trained model can be used as the basis of a decision support system for operators of remote-controlled unmanned underwater vehicles and as the basis for building control systems for autonomous uninhabited underwater vehicles for moni-toring underwater spaces.

The paper proposes a scheme of emergency prevention system based on neuromorphic approach. The system includes a prediction unit that implements a mathematical model of the cerebellum predictive functions, and an alarm unit that implements the pain sensation model, proposed by the authors earlier. As a basic element of the proposed system the Compartmental Spiking Neuron Model (CSNM) was used, capable of learning from a small number of examples. The use of neuromorphic approach allows to overcome the limitations associated with the formalizing complexity of the systems being diagnosed and the low availability of data for modeling the processes occurring in them. The overcoming these limitations is possible due to the possibility of learning from a small number of examples and the absence of the need to model the system being diagnosed itself. The paper also presents the results of testing of the proposed scheme, which was carried out on a computer model using synthetic data. The results of the testing showed the fundamental applicability of the proposed scheme in neuromorphic control systems.

Published: December 2023

This paper discusses methods for extracting significant events from data streams generated by actuating and sen-sory devices built into robotic means. An event-oriented model for managing data streams between embedded devices of a ground-based robotic vehicle using a knowledge base that stores information about embedded de-vices and their configurations has been developed. To isolate significant events from the streams of data generat-ed by devices, the restrictions described in the device configurations are used. The proposed model also takes into account possible device failures. The generated events initiate the selection and launch of a certain process by a robotic means, for the description of which BPMN notation is used. The results of simulation modeling are shown, which confirm the effectiveness of the proposed event-oriented model, which provides a 41.8% reduction in data volumes processed by the central computer due to the distribution of calculations to the intermediate microcontrol-lers of embedded devices.

The development of robotic systems today is one of the key areas, which is reflected in the development programs of the state. Robotic complexes and their implementation are widely applicable in civil and military areas. The de-velopment of the industry today is associated with trends in the introduction of intelligent systems and components based on integrated solutions for training or self-development. Within the framework of this work, only the aspect of identifying intergamonics based on complex intelligent technologies will be solved to ensure the stability of the elements of robotic systems as a single robotic complex (production line) in the future. The article presents a method for determining and eliminating current and voltage interharmonics in smart power supply networks. A step-by-step algorithm for extracting and determining the frequencies of interharmonics, their amplitude and phase angle, as well as a method for eliminating them using an active harmonic filter, is presented. An asynchro-nous motor with a squirrel-cage rotor operating with a variable periodic load on the shaft was used as a source of interharmonics. The article uses simulation modeling in the Matlab/Simulink mathematical package. As a result of the simulation, the main harmonic of the current was identified and the difference between the current of the stator phase of the induction motor and its main harmonic was found. The resulting difference is presented as a harmon-ic Fourier series with subsequent determination of the frequency, amplitude and phase of the interharmonics. To confirm the theoretical calculations, an experiment was carried out on the basis of which interharmonic distortions were eliminated by using an active harmonic filter.

Authors: Supyan Victor B.
Published: December 2023

The article aims to show economic development in the USA after two years of presidency of J. Biden. The author shows major indicators of macroeconomic situation in 2022, gives estimations for 2023 and foreseeable future. Real GDP increased by 2.1% and accounted for 25.5 trln dollars. The economic growth reflected growth of consumer expenditures, growth of exports, of private investments including fixed capital. On the other side the problem of inflation is exacerbated, the consumer price index increased up to 10% in the middle of the year, reaching the average level of 6.2% in 2022. Since the second part of the year the inflation began to slow down. The level of unemployment remains unprecedentedly low - at 3.6%. The consequences of government economic policy showed positive direction. The federal budget deficit decreased to 5.5% of GDP, mostly because of measures taken by the Federal Reserve. The inflation seems to have a stable downward trend. In August 2022 the Congress passed a law “Inflation Reduction Act”. Most forecasts for 2023 don’t expect a new recession in 2023, though the GDP growth rates will go down significantly - to 0.8-1.0%. The inflation will go down as well, the unemployment remains on a level less than 4%.
Fundamental vectors of the Biden administration’s industrial policy: results of the first half of the presidential term
Authors: Tolkachev Sergei A.
Published: December 2023

The article examines the two-year results of the implementation of the initiatives of the administration of President George. Biden to revive the industry. Arguments are given that prove the practical inconsistency of the arguments popular in the outgoing era of globalization and post-industrialism about the “natural” nature of the decline in the role of industry and the decrease in employment in this area. The main drivers of reindustrialization associated with the need to reduce the critical degree of dependence on imports of foreign goods and technologies are considered. Four main laws in the field of industrial policy adopted in 2021-2022 are considered, which determine the fundamental vectors of the U.S. development strategy in the field of industry, related to ensuring technological sovereignty and the revival of the regional approach in industrial development. Based on the latest data on job creation through reshoring and foreign direct investment, an assumption is made about the first successes of the industrial policy of J. Biden.
Non-proliferation precedents: conflict between the US and Iran in the context of deterring the iranian nuclear program
Authors: Bobkin Nikolay N.
Published: December 2023

American efforts to prevent the creation of nuclear weapons by Iran from the 1950s to the present are analyzed. The development of the Iranian nuclear weapons crisis is assessed in its historical context: from the concept of Iran's nuclear program under the Shah to the achievement of a threshold level in the creation of nuclear weapons today. It is emphasized that during the years of allied relations with the Shah's Iran, Washington downplayed the role of non-proliferation. It is substantiated that after the victory of the 1979 Revolution, American policy was mainly focused not on the legal and technical aspects of the nonproliferation process, but on the desire to use criticism of the Iranian nuclear program to isolate Iran and achieve a change in the country's ruling religious leadership. It is substantiated that the sanctions did not force Tehran to abandon nuclear research, but only slowed down the pace of development of the Iranian nuclear weapons program. It is shown that President Trump's decision to withdraw the US from the JCPOA in 2018 is a sabotage of nuclear non-proliferation, by early 2023 Iran has become much closer to creating nuclear weapons. It is assumed that Tehran could develop nuclear weapons in just a few months if it chooses to do so.

European grapevine moth Lobesia botrana is the most important pest causing crop losses in most of Türkiye’s grape growing regions, feeding mainly on inflorescence and grape berries. This study was carried out to determine the release efficiency and the most efficient dose of the native egg parasitoid, Trichogramma euproctidis against L. botrana in an organic vineyard located in the Menemen district of Izmir, in the Aegean Region, which has the largest grape production area. In this context, two different release doses at 75 000 and 100 000 parasitoids/ha were applied to find the most effective one. The effectiveness of the parasitoid was compared in terms of pest infestation rates in grape bunches from parasitoid-released and non-released plots just prior to harvest. The infestation rates in plots released 100 000 parasitoids/ha (12, 4 and 5 %) and 75 000 parasitoids/ha (7.5, 11 and 1 1 %) were lower than control (25, 33 and 70 %) in 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively. In 2018 and 2019, the high release dose (100 000 parasitoids/ha) applied five or six times in total was the most promising with the lowest pest infestation rates. In this study, the most effective release dose (100 000 parasitoids/ha) of the native egg parasitoid, T. euproctidis, was determined for the first time in Türkiye. In conclusion, the results obtained from the study will encourage the use of this parasitoid in organic and integrated grape growing programs.

DETERMINATION OF EFFECTIVE STRUCTURAL CHARACTERISTICS OF COLLECTIVE DRAINAGE PIPELINES FOR MELIORATIVE SYSTEMS
Authors: KRAVCHUK Andriy , KRAVCHUK Oleksandr
Published: December 2023

Methodology for calculation the effective structural characteristics of pressure collecting drainage pipelines is proposed in the paper. It is based on the analysis of the differential equations describing the movement of liquid with variableflow rate in such pipes. It is assumed that the flow rate variation along the length of the collector is taking place continuously. The studied system of differential equations consists of the variable mass hydraulics equation and the modified filtration equation., the original system is reduced to a dimensionless form by introducing new original variables.The effective characteristics of the drainage pipeline are meant as the parameters at which groundwater enters the pipe along its entire length with an intensity no less than specified by technological requirements.It is shown that the value of the effective parameters mainly depends on the value of three important factors: the resistance coefficient of the collectivedrainage pipeline «ζl»; distances between drainage pipes «E»; the generalized parameter «A», which comprehensively takes into account the structuraland filtering characteristics of the considered stream. The concept of a fictitious drainage pipeline of infinite length or a pipeline with an infinite filtering capacity of its side surface was used in the analysis. At the same time, the necessary pressure difference between the groundwater level and the piezometric pressure inside the real and fictitious pipelines is ensured. The resulting calculation formulasare quite simple and convenient to use.The example of calculating the effective characteristics of a real pressure collecting drainage pipeline is given. The presented calculation method will certainly be useful in the actual design of prefabricated drainage pipes of reclamation systems, since its use will allow to rationally calculate their parameters and, due to this, significantly reduce the cost of construction and ensure optimal conditions for the operation of reclamation systems.

Authors: KLYMOV Yulii , SMORKALOV Dmytro
Published: December 2023

The paper presents the results of astatistical evaluation of the mechanical characteristics of reinforcement of class A500S in coils.The statistical evaluation was performed based on the results of tensile tests on 144 samples of 8 mm diameter rebar of A5000S class made of St3ps steel. The samples were taken from 8 coils of different batches of industrial production, 6 samples fromthe beginning, middle and end of each coil. During the tests, the main mechanical characteristics of A500C reinforcement were determined - yield strength (σТ), ultimate strength (σВ), ratio of ultimate strength to yield strength (σВ/σТ), relative elongation after rupture (δ5), state diagrams were drawn and the elastic modulus of the rebar (Es) was determined. The statistical evaluation was performed for each of the studied parameters (σТ, σВ,σВ/σТ, δ5) first separately for each skein for samples taken from the beginning, middle and end, then for all samples taken from the beginning, middle and end of all skeins, respectively, and finally forthe entire sample of 144 samples.According to the test data of samples from 8 coils, the yield strength of A500C reinforcement varied in the range of 532.80...631.10 MPa, the temporary resistance - 697.30...762.70 MPa, the relative elongation at break - 18.75...30.00 %, the ratioof temporary resistance to yield strength -1.185...1.344.No stable patterns of change in the mechanical characteristics of the reinforcement along the length of the coils were found. The difference between the average values of yield strength, temporary resistance, relative elongation, and the ratio of temporary resistance to yield strength along the length of the coils did not exceed 2 %.The values of the coefficients of variation and the range of the values of the corresponding mechanical characteristics of the samples taken from the beginning, middle and end of the coils were also close to each other.The yield strength of A500C rebar with a diameter of 8 mm in coils in this sample of samples was 0.9999, with a normalised value of 0.95. The coefficient of variation was 0.0328.For the established security of the calculated reinforcement resistance at the level of 0.998, the reliability factor for A500C class rebar with a diameter of 8 mm in coils was 1.109, which is less thanthe value of 1.15 accepted in the current regulatory documents.
COMBINED SLAB-PILE FOUNDATION
Authors: KRIPAK Volodymyr
Published: December 2023

Solid reinforced concrete slab foundations are commonly employed in the construction of multi-story frame and panel buildings on natural grounds, as well as in industrial structures such assilos, elevators, chimneys, steel reactors, and more.One significant advantage of monolithic foundations is their ability to be used on weak and uneven ground bases. These foundations can distribute uneven loads over a considerable area, redistributingthem to equalize the inevitable differential settlements of individual foundations. On soft and uneven soils, slab foundations are not only used to mitigate deformations but also to protect against highgroundwater, creating what is known as a "floating" foundation.It has been demonstrated that the combined slab pile foundation (CSPF) is an effective development in the field of foundation construction. CSPF constitutes a foundation system comprising a "pile field – slab grillage – soil base," where piles bear a portion of the building load, and the slab grillage functions as a foundation slab. CSPF can be interpreted as a monolithic slab supported by piles of various types arranged in the form of a pile field, strips,clusters, or individual piles. Various types of piles, including "barrette" piles, can be used for CSPF foundations.Considering the soil resistance beneath the slab grillage in the deformation calculations and loadbearing capacity of combined slab-pile foundations provides a reserve for enhancing their economic efficiency. This includes reducing the number ofpiles, lowering the consumption of steel reinforcement, and decreasing the thickness of the grillage.However, the implementation of CSPF in construction is hindered by the limited theoretical research, necessary regulatory framework, and design experience for such structures.The determination of design parameters for CSPF is carried out using the method of successive approximations. By specifying the area of the slab grillage and defining the pile length and spacing, the number of piles in the foundation, the settlement ofan individual pile, and the design load on the pile are calculated (initially assuming that all piles bear 70-80% of the total load).

Published: December 2023

The reconstruction of Ukraine requires progressive and innovative structural solutions that take into account the requirements of usage safety and fire safety of construction products. One of the mostimportant requirements set for building products and materials used inside buildings on walls and ceilings is the requirement forflammability. In Ukraine, the standard DSTU EN 13501-1 [3] regarding the fire classification of construction products is currently in effect.The standard defines testing methods applied to the evaluated product, as well as criteria for assessing the obtained test results, assigningthem corresponding basic classes of reaction to fire.If it is necessary to assess the behavior of the product at the further stage of a fire, testing should be conducted using the Single BurningItem (SBI) method according to DSTU EN 13823 [5]. The SBI method corresponds to the stage of fire development at which the buildingproduct is exposed to the heat of a single burning item. SBI testing can be conducted independently for technological trials and todetermine the basic operational characteristics of construction products.However, a complete classification of the reaction to fire depending on the class should be complemented by testing according to DSTUEN ISO 11925-2 [4], DSTU EN ISO 1182 [6], or DSTU EN ISO 1716 [7].The article provides a description of the process of conducting SBI method tests, how test results are calculated, what parameters themeasurement system on the SBI test stand calculates, and what they mean in relation toreal fire. The results of studies on some constructionproducts during SBI testing are presented.

Published: December 2023

The results of a numerical study on test examples of the convergence of the developed version of the semi-analytical method of finite elementsare presented. A comparison of machine time and accuracy of solving elastic and plastic problems obtained on the basis of finite elements with variableand averaged mechanical parameters was performed.The convergence of the finite element method and the semianalytical finite element method in the calculation of prismatic bodies loaded with localized and distributed external influences was studied. An effective numerical approach to the study of arbitrarily loaded massive and thin-walled prismatic bodies of complex shape, the deformation of which can pass beyond theelastic limit of the material, is being developed based on the finite element moment scheme and the semianalytical variant of the finite element method. Due to the representation of displacements by polynomials and the use of iterative methods of solving systems of equations, this approach is developed in relation to the calculation of objects with arbitrary boundary conditions on the ends, which made it possible to expand the area of effective application of the semi-analytical method of finite elements to a new class ofproblems.A number of new complex problems of elastic and elastic-plastic deformation of massive and thinwalled prismatic bodies, which have an independentapplied value, have been solved.

Published: December 2023

The research paper studies current issues and prospects for the formation and implementation of the state policy of combating terrorism. As the author emphasizes, terrorist acts related to the of weapons, munitions or explosives are defined as the most dangerous and destructive consequences, as they pose a real threat to people’s lives and health, and cause the destruction of industrial, economic, or defense facilities. It became especially relevant during the resistance of the Ukrainian people to armed aggression by Russia. Therefore, the relevance of the theoretical and methodological development of particular issues of the concept of “terrorism” is beyond doubt and is the purpose of writing this research paper. The most characteristic features of modern terrorist activity should be considered to be its mostly organized nature, ideological cover for political or self-interested motivation, financing and coordination by non-governmental organizations, representatives of criminal communities or individual states, as well as the use by terrorists of corrupt connections with representatives of state authorities, law enforcement officers, employees of special services of foreign countries and influential persons of the economic and financial segment.

This research discusses the meaning of symbols found in the implementation of the ka'an tradition in the Tanjung Besar Village community, the Semende Lembak tribe. The research method used in this research is a descriptive-qualitative method; the researcher tries to describe the results of the research that has been carried out. The subjects in this research consisted of four informants, namely the traditional leader, traditional officials, rebiyah, and celebration organizers. Of course, the informants in this research were informants who were in accordance with the specified informant characteristics. Determining informants in this study used purposeful sampling techniques. The data sources in this research use primary and secondary data. The data collection methods in this research are observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation analysis. Analysis of the research results was also carried out using Roland Bhartes' semiotic analysis. From the research results on implementing the Kai'an tradition, there are two stages, namely the preparation stage and the ceremony implementation stage. In the first stage, the header symbol is interpreted as a symbol of protection, can provide positive things, is liked by many people, and has good character. Meanwhile, in the second stage, the symbol of a girl bathing using various media is interpreted as meaning that a girl who is circumcised will later have a clean soul, have nobility and sincerity, be humble, be able to benefit others, be humble, and symbolize elegance.

The The badudus tradition is a tradition that is usually carried out before the traditional marriage ceremony of the Banjar tribe. The badudus tradition is a custom or habit that has been passed down by the ancestors since ancient times and continues to be practiced today. This paper aims to examine the ritual communication of the badudus tradition in the Banjar tribe of South Kalimantan, especially Tabalong district. This paper uses field research and a descriptive-qualitative approach. Data sources were obtained through interviews with cultural, religious, and community leaders as tradition actors. This paper finds the Badudus tradition not only as a physical self-cleansing, but also inwardly. This paper also explains the meaning of the materials used in the Badudus tradition. The communication model used in the Badudus tradition is a sacred ceremony where people gather to follow a series of Badudus tradition events. The Badudus tradition in the process of implementation still needs further study because there are still several things that need to be refined which aims to make the implementation of the Badudus tradition in accordance with Islamic religious law. One of them is the intention to carry out the badudus tradition which aims to keep away from all calamities, making this tradition need changes in terms of intention, and the implementation of the badudus tradition in the future must be more directed towards Islamic values so that its implementation is in accordance with Islamic religious law.

Currently, interest in biometrics has increased, and personal identity verification is ubiquitous. Iris recognition techniques have recently attracted considerable attention from researchers and are considered one of the most popular topics as they are used for verification purposes. Because of the increasing use of iris recognition, many potential risks have emerged as a natural result of the increased deployment of these technologies. One of the most serious risks is the so-called presentation attack (PA). A PA is the presentation of a sample to an iris sensor to trick the biometric system into making an incorrect decision. Iris presentation attacks are used to spoof or disguise a person’s identity. Many studies have focused on iris presentation attack detection techniques, which are a subset biometric recognition. However, some gaps remain unsolved, and new challenges are rapidly emerging. Despite significant advances in the literature, the problems in iris presentation attack detection have not been adequately addressed and remain open questions. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of iris presentation attack detection from various aspects (e.g., detection techniques, attack types, datasets, and performance measurements). It also attempts to explore the main challenges that may affect presentation attack detection models in terms of important aspects. The challenges that remain to be unresolved are summarised to facilitate problem solving. This review concludes with some directions for future research to help researchers focus on important aspects of the field and try to improve what previous researchers have started. Furthermore, it is likely that this review will be used as a reference for scientists/researchers in the existing science of iris presentation attack detection.

The integration of the Internet of Things (IoT) into industrial activities has unlocked myriad possibilities, particularly in applications like environmental monitoring, which facilitates effective landfill management. Nevertheless, IoT environments present challenges, including resource constraints, heterogeneity and potential hardware/software failures. These issues often lead to sensor anomalies, triggering false alarms and stalling data-driven systems. Existing models for edge devices frequently overlook the sensor life cycle, leading to extensive training times and significant computational demands. In this paper, a collaborative approach is proposed wherein a Markovian architecture gauges the operational state of a sensor, assisting the Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) model in outlier detection within real-world data. Commercially available MQ-4 sensor alongside a microwave RADAR-based Methane (CH4) sensor in a tandem setup is employed to evaluate our methodology. The Bathtub curve and the Pearson Correlation Coefficient (PCC) function as the switching mechanisms for the Markov chain. Real-time data validation yielded an impressive 92.57% accuracy and 94.86% efficiency in anomaly detection. When benchmarked against the Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) and the Prophet algorithm, our method demonstrated superior anomaly rejection rates of 9.63% and 3.01%, respectively. Implementing the Markov-LSTM model in methane sensing significantly enhances the accuracy of recorded sensor values compared to standard methane sensors.

Резюме. В Україні існує проблема недостатньої фізичної активності серед дітей шкільного віку, що впливає на їх здоров’я та фізичний розвиток. Для вирішення цієї проблеми важливо забезпечити якісну реалізацію нової освітньої моделі фізичного виховання в рамках Нової української школи, яка відповідає вимогам сучасної  освіти та сприяє формуванню здорового способу життя та сталої потреби у фізичній активності серед дітей шкільного віку. Для цього необхідно детально розглянути та проаналізувати таку освітню модель, визначити проблематику і перспективи подальшого розвитку. Мета. Розглянути освітню модель фізичного виховання в рамках програми «Нова українська школа» та її роль у підвищенні рівня фізичної активності дітей шкільного віку. Методи. Теоретичний аналіз і узагальнення наукової літератури, аналіз нормативних та стратегічних документів; контент-аналіз документальних матеріалів; метод системного аналізу. Результати. Визначено, що Нова українська школа (НУШ) має інноваційну програму фізичного виховання, яка базується на гуманістичних, диференційованих та особистісно-орієнтованих принципах. Освітня модель фізичного виховання за НУШ передбачає розвиток різноманітних компетентностей та природних здібностей, інтересів і обдарувань учнів, їхню соціалізацію та громадянську активність. У програмі НУШ використовують ігрові елементи, змагання та призи, що дозволяє підвищити мотивацію учнів до фізичної активності та розвитку спортивних досягнень. Проте реалізація програми стикається з такими проблемами, як брак інфраструктури та спортивного обладнання, низький рівень мотивації дітей та недостатня кваліфікація вчителів.
