Sujeito-Velho e Pandemia: modos de subjetivação e controle da vida
Authors: Duarte Jaira Picanço , Henning Paula Corrêa
Published: December 2023

O presente artigo propôs analisar os discursos de verdades produzidos no web site Portal do Envelhecimento que vêm subjetivando os sujeitos-velhos no período da pandemia da Covid-19, no Brasil. O campo teórico assumido nesse artigo refere-se, especialmente, aos estudos de Michel Foucault no que tange as discussões sobre sujeito e subjetividade.  Problematiza-se os modos como são produzidos discursos de verdade em torno da saúde e da velhice da população. Trata-se de escrutinar as reportagens do Portal do Envelhecimento que se debruçam sobre a pandemia e a velhice. O recorte temporal da análise documental aqui empreendida compreende de março de 2020 a setembro de 2021. Olha-se as estratégias que a mídia produz e faz circular hábitos e estilos de vida, modificando os sujeitos, definindo condutas e criando estratégias de controle e de regulação para a população idosa. No entanto, vê-se também que as reportagens podem contribuir para que os idosos pensem sobre os problemas que enfrentam, as vivências de saúde que se tem e os possíveis modos de lidar com o que os acomete. Trata-se de mirar com cuidado e com o escopo foucaultiano os modos como se produz uma velhice no tempo pandêmico que passamos.

Published: December 2023

Resumo: Trata-se de um relato de experiência enfocado no Serviço Social de um hospital público de nível terciário de Fortaleza-CE diante da pandemia de Covid-19, na qual teve que valer-se de todo um arsenal humano, teórico/metodológico e operacional para atender as famílias dos usuários. O objetivo geral foi conhecer a dinâmica das ações desenvolvidas pelo Serviço Social frente à pandemia de Covid-19, principalmente em um espaço denominado “Acolhimento Familiar” durante os meses de maio a julho de 2020. A Metodologia utilizada foi a pesquisa bibliográfica, pesquisa documental e a observação direta. O resultado desse estudo foi a importância da atuação do Serviço Social numa unidade de alta complexidade frente a uma pandemia, e principalmente compreender que o Assistente Social é aquele profissional que lida diretamente com o usuário do Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) e suas demandas sociais pautado no atendimento de qualidade. Conclui-se que diante do quadro de calamidade pública instalado, o Serviço Social vivenciou um momento ímpar na história do SUS, com as novas demandas impostas pela pandemia no Ceará. Com esforço foram criadas novas práticas nos processos de trabalho e de ressignificação na forma de atendimento. Então, a alternativa foi ressignificar e fazer da experiência negativa algo positivo, com base na instrumentalidade e na política de humanização da saúde.

Metodologias Ativas no Ensino de Microbiologia com a Utilização da Covid-19, Sars-Cov-2 e Vacinas como Temas-Problemas
Authors: Siqueira Celia Gomes de
Published: December 2023

O ensino de microbiologia na graduação precisa superar diversas dificuldades e barreiras para desenvolver o conhecimento na área, tanto pelo professor, quanto pelos alunos. Existem dois obstáculos associados ao ensino de microbiologia hoje, que precisam ser ultrapassados. O primeiro está relacionado ao consenso que existe entre a população brasileira, e provavelmente também a mundial, de que microrganismos são exclusivamente patogênicos, fato reforçado pelas mídias escrita e televisiva. O segundo relaciona-se ao próprio objeto de estudo, vez que o universo dos microrganismos é invisível aos nossos olhos, exigindo um esforço extra de educadores e educandos. As aulas práticas de microbiologia são uma ferramenta importante para este conteúdo, entretanto, com as aulas remotas, sem a possibilidade do uso de laboratórios, para não prejudicar a formação dos alunos, estas tiveram que ser desenvolvidas de formas alternativas. Mesmo com o auxílio das práticas de laboratório, a disciplina exige uma grande capacidade de abstração por partes dos alunos para assimilar os conteúdos, que muitas vezes são áridos. Assim, neste trabalho foi proposto um modelo de plano de ensino baseado em metodologias ativas, empregando-se a problematização da Covid-19, do SARS-CoV-2, das vacinas e da vacinação como tema-problema. Os alunos se mostraram incentivados e o desenvolvimento das atividades têm estimulado a iniciativa, o trabalho cooperativo e a criatividade.

PODEM AS LÉSBICAS FALAR? CHANACOMCHANA ENQUANTO ESPAÇO DE RESISTÊNCIA E VISIBILIDADE.
Authors: Batista Letícia Emília
Published: December 2023

A inquietação a respeito da invisibilidade lésbica vem mobilizando diversas pesquisas que refutam o apagamento histórico delegado às produções de lesbianidades. Considerando então a heterossexualidade compulsória como um sistema estruturante da sociedade, falar sobre a existência e experiência lésbica representa uma contradição à ordem naturalizada da dominação masculina centrada no falo. Nesse sentido, os estudos de lesbianidades no Brasil apontam a atuação do Grupo de Ação Lésbico Feminista (Galf) como fundamental para a emergência da organização lésbica no país. Por esta razão, o presente artigo, que é um recorte de uma dissertação, visa fazer uma breve análise de alguns depoimentos e entrevistas presentes nos Boletins Chanacomchana (1981-1987) para evidenciar como esse material operou enquanto espaço de consciência, politização e ressignificação do que é ser lésbica.
HORIZONTES E DESAFIOS MATERNOS DAS MULHERES LIBERTAS
Authors: Urruzola Patricia
Published: December 2023

Mulheres mães e seus filhos formam o grupo mais vulnerável em tempos de tensionamentos políticos e crises econômicas. Logo, se deduz que as mulheres mães libertas e seus filhos foram os mais vulneráveis na virada do século XIX para o século XX. A condição materna daquelas mulheres foi colocada num lugar social de extrema precariedade no mesmo contexto de enaltecimento da maternidade. Neste sentido, o presente texto propõe uma reflexão em torno dessa contrariedade, tendo por pano de fundo a escravidão e o pós-abolição no Brasil.

Palavras-chave: Mulheres mães libertas; Maternidade; Escravidão; Pós-Abolição.
REDE BRASILEIRA DE MULHERES CIENTISTAS (RBMC) E O ENQUADRAMENTO DA DESIGUALDADE DE GÊNERO NAS MÍDIAS SOCIAIS
Authors: Bezerra Francisca , Guimarães e Silva Juliana , Araújo Carmenm Emmanuely Leitão Araújo
Published: December 2023

Este artigo busca compreender a atuação da Rede Brasileira de Mulheres Cientistas (RBMC) e a mobilização da desigualdade de gênero nesse processo. Realizou-se análise do Enquadramento da comunicação da RBMC (Youtube, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter e site) e portais que noticiaram sobre a Rede nas mídias sociais, em seu primeiro ano de atuação (abril 2021/2022). A análise do frame “desigualdade de gênero”, central para a Rede, ratifica a condição complexa e histórica das mulheres, o agravamento com a deslegitimação da ciência e a Covid-19; evidencia violências diversas que enfraquecem políticas públicas, causam inseguranças e risco de morte; sobretudo às mulheres pobres, negras e de regiões periféricas. Conclui-se que a RBMC, em seu ativismo digital, interseccional, busca dar visibilidade às mulheres, intervir na agenda pública e ratificar que a ciência não é neutra, mas ponto de partida para políticas públicas mais justas.
Madness and Idiocy: Reframing a Basic Problem of Philosophy of Psychiatry
Authors: Garson Justin
Published: December 2023

Abstract: A basic question of philosophy of psychiatry is “what is madness (mental illness, mental disorder…)?” Contemporary thinkers err by framing the problem as one of defining madness in contrast with sanity. For the Late Modern theorist of madness, the problem was not one of defining madness in contrast with sanity, but in contrast with “idiocy”—the apparent diminution or abolition of one’s reasoning power. This altered reading of the problem has an important consequence. For what distinguishes madness from idiocy is not the failure, absence, or lack of reason, but its presence—albeit in a perverse and mutated form. For the Late Modern theorist, madness was always, by its very nature, infused with reason. This “infusion” of madness by reason has two consequences for philosophy of psychiatry today: it reframes the project of defining “mental disorder,” and it provides intellectual scaffolding for the emerging movement known as Mad Pride, mad resistance, or mad activism.
Optimising Satellite and Core Networks for a Global Quantum Network
Authors: Karavias Vasileios , White Catherine , Lord Andrew , Payne Mike
Published: December 2023

Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) promises information theoretic security. However, the exponential decay of the secure key in optical fibres leads to limitations in long distance QKD distribution across fibres, which is necessary for global Quantum Networks (QNs). Satellite QKD can be used to generate keys over long distances bypassing fibre limitations and is thus a promising approach for global QNs. In this paper, we construct Mixed Integer Linear Program (MILP) models to investigate how to best connect the core fibre network to ground stations to minimise the overall network cost. We design one MILP that can provide a quantitative value for the number of satellites needed for a given configuration and one to optimise the allocation of the core network nodes to ground stations to minimise the overall network cost. We use these models to investigate different strategies to allocate satellites to ground stations during a satellite overpass, showing that allocating satellites based on the expected transmission requirements can reduce the number of satellites needed in a network by up to 40%. Furthermore, we use these models to investigate securing the Data Centre traffic in 2 networks, one local European Network and one Global Network showing costs in the optimal configuration can be up to 40% cheaper than simply connecting core network sites to their geographically closest ground station.

Inheritage: Exploring choreographic thought within inherited objects and the mutual transmission of histories
Authors: Athreya Preethi
Published: December 2023

This article is based on a movement practice concerned with the study of objects that are owned, inherited, passed on or lost. Through a choreographic lens, it looks at objects that speak to a cultural and colonial heritage, embodying critical questions of our attachment to ‘belongings’, to ‘belonging’ and to place. How do these objects sit within our bodies? Do they affect the way we carry our physical selves? What are the histories that we inherit together with things? And what of ourselves do we transfer onto the things that surround us. This paper maps a particular choreographic process between 2020 and 2022 passing through the period of the pandemic to look at the role of a movement practice in this transmission.
Our moving bodies as waka/vaka: Explorations through Ori Paraparau | Body Conversations
Authors: Taumihau Syrai-Tiare
Published: December 2023

Ori Paraparau | Body Conversations is an embodied talanoa that engages in a reciprocal and shared vā. Being both a choreographic movement task and Mana Moana methodology, Ori Paraparau allows Moana dancers to warm up their minds, bodies, and the vā they share with one another. The idea of ‘recentring’ ourselves (a similar philosophy to decolonizing) is strong here as it better reflects our hyphened identities and the way we view and experience the world. Within the task we can see our moving bodies as waka/vaka that holds our histories, stories and experiences but also link us back to our ancestors. Our Moana identities are complex and vary between person to person, experiences and stories of our whakapapa bringing us to where we are today. Themes of belonging, childhood memories, returning to self, and the complexities of individual Moana cultural identities are explored and investigated within a comfortable environment. Through engaging in Ori Paraparau we may share, exchange, dance, cry and laugh our way through it whilst also building, nurturing and strengthening the vā.
Who does the story belong to? The politics of power in collaborative performance
Authors: Srinivasan Priya
Published: December 2023

In this article, I interrogate my work Encounters with Dr Yashoda Thakore and her guru Annabattula Mangatayaru who are from the kalavantulu community (a marginalized, banned and ostracized dance community) based in Hyderabad and Mummidivaram in Andhra and our historic collaboration with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra (MSO). Two extremes it would seem bridged together by the work I was doing with our platform/festival Sangam, created to provide representation for marginalized, under-represented and racialized South Asian artists in Melbourne, Victoria. Based on my research that spans fifteen years, the Encounters performance reveals the story of five South Indian dancers (known as devadasi/kalavantulu) and three musicians who toured to Paris in 1838, at a time when India was colonized by France. One significant encounter occurred in Paris when a teenaged dancer called Ammany and the rest of the troupe met several composers in Vienna including Johann Strauss I and Joseph Lanner. The MSO had been playing some pieces from this encounter (Indianner Galopp and Malapou Galopp) not aware of its historic intercultural significance. Yashoda and her guru were also performing fragments of their repertoire descended from Ammany not aware of this connection. My research forms the third part of this puzzle; of knowing only fragments until all of us came together. Each of us contributed to the anti-colonial experimental piece that was created, but whose story was this? Who had the rights to perform this story? To engage in this question, I explore the idea of cultural property and intellectual property (IP) rights, licensing and copyright agreements to embark upon a moral and ethical framework not used usually in Australian–Indian performance praxis. I draw from my work with BlakDance and its First Nations IP process to question and interrogate the complexities of sharing stories, the politics of making intercultural work in Australia and examine who profits from this process whether it is economic, symbolic, political or via cultural capital and propose a cultural IP framework for the global majority in Australia.
Rawls’ ‘Justice as Fairness’: Not only Political but also Metaphysical
Authors: TAŞKIN Ferhat
Published: December 2023

In his book A Theory of Justice, John Rawls develops an account of justice, ‘justice as fairness’ (JAF, henceforth). In his later works, he claims that JAF is supposed to depend on neither philosophical nor religious claims but on political claims. So, the conception of justice he wishes to defend is political but not metaphysical. This political (as well as moral in a specific sense) conception of justice is supposed to apply to political, social, and economic institutions. By presenting JAF, Rawls aims to show how free and rational persons would hold the same conception of justice he defends if they have been invited to construct a just social contract. This would be the case, Rawls reasons, only if those persons determine the principles of justice as if they are in a purely hypothetical situation. Rawls calls this situation ‘the original position’ and thinks that in the original position, parties and decision makers can be fair and impartial to construct a social contract if they can stand behind ‘The Veil of Ignorance’ which is the main feature of the original position. The parties (free and rational persons) who stand behind the veil of ignorance know nothing about their place, class position, social status, intelligence, abilities, and the like in society. They do not know their conceptions of the good either. Since the parties are rational and capable of having a sense of justice, the fundamental agreement they could make behind the veil of ignorance with respect to the principles of justice will be fair. Rawls also develops an account of law (the Law of Peoples) to show that the principles of justice will be universal in its reach. He claims that both reasonably just liberal and decent hierarchical peoples (like the Muslim peoples of the utopian state, Kazanistan) would accept the principles of justice. Rawls argues, however, that since a decent hierarchical society does not consider its members as free and equal citizens as a liberal society does, it cannot be as reasonable and just as a liberal society. So, liberal peoples must encourage decent peoples to recognize the advantages of having liberal institutions and try to convince them to become more liberal in order to have a reasonably just society. In this paper, I will argue that Rawls’s accounts of the original position and the Law of Peoples show that unlike what Rawls contends, JAF is not only political but also metaphysical. I will suggest that since Rawls’s accounts of JAF and person require some metaphysical assumptions, theists who necessarily hold comprehensive metaphysical claims on justice and person have a good reason to reject that they should step behind the veil of ignorance in order to construct a just social contract.
Two Wars in the Order of Time: Cyprus, 1974, Ukraine, 2022
Authors: Saldanha-Álvarez José Maurício
Published: December 2023

Two cases are studied, the first being the invasion of Cyprus by Turkey in 1974, when the Greek-Cypriot community wanted to integrate the island into mainland Greece, threatening the rise of Turkish Cypriots. The government of Turkey invaded the island, conquering a portion of the territory for its supporters, believing to resolve the issue culminating in decades of conflict between their communities whose past dreams do not coincide with the present. The second event is Vladimir Putin's Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022, motivated by the irreversible process of the dissolution of the former USSR and the attraction of Ukrainians to the western orbit. From a notion of the strangeness of contemporaneity, anchored in a glorious but unattainable past, events that erupt in contemporaneity are simultaneously current and anachronistic. Based on a premise of the past and defending ethnic Russians, Putin recovers the fantasy of a Russian empire encompassing tsarist, communist, and orthodox religions from the past. In Cyprus, Greek and Turkish Cypriots dreamed of integration into the motherland, but in both cases, contemporary and ancient irruption possess the unbeatable force of a cosmic event.
Governance System Impact on the Performance of Public Universities Utilizing the Centralized/Decentralized Framework
Authors: Thompson Marcus
Published: December 2023

This qualitative study sought to understand how centralized and decentralized governance systems impacted the performance of public universities through the perceptions of senior university administrators. Five research questions sought insights from the personal experiences of the nine participants from two governance systems, who currently hold a range of positions. The research questions were: 1) How does the administrative governance system impact the faculty and staff of the institution? 2) How does the administrative governance system impact the financial resources of the institution? 3) How does the administrative governance system impact the administrators through its policymaking function? 4) How does the administrative governance system impact student outcomes and satisfaction? 5) How does the administrative governance system monitor or evaluate the institution’s performance? Interviews of the nine participants shed light on boards engagement with universities, advocacy, shared governance, impact of board polices and institutional performance. The findings showed the need for boards to listen to all stakeholders, autonomy of institutions administrators, faculty and the need for boards to have members who understand the intricacies of the academy
Why Sentencing Codification Could be More Complex than Anticipated
Authors: Garoupa Nuno
Published: December 2023

The common argument to explain codification of criminal sanctions is departing from arbitrary sentencing. By limiting judicial discretion, sentencing codification should reduce disparity. By a simple theoretical model, we show that strategic judicial behavior can actually undermine statutory sentencing, thus producing more rather than less variance in severity of punishment.
Introduction to Latent Variable Estimation for Undergraduate Econometrics: An Application with Disney Theme Park Ride Wait Times
Authors: James Jonathan
Published: December 2023

This paper describes a simple and interesting application of structural equation modeling for a single lecture in an undergraduate econometrics course to introduce students to the concept of using data to recover latent variables. The application centers around using hourly observations on ride wait times at Disney’s Magic Kingdom to infer how crowded it is at the theme park. Pedagogically, the material is presented in the context of the linear regression model, so the discussion works to enhance students’ understanding of core material, not to introduce new disparate methods. The application provides interesting economic-based insights, like which ride’s wait times are categorically most informative about how crowded it is at the park.
Messsystem zur Dehnungsmessung von Faserwerkstoffen basierend auf subjektiven Laser-Speckle-Mustern
Authors: Spaett Alexander , Zagar Bernhard G.
Published: December 2023

Fasern, sowohl Naturfasern als auch technische Fasern finden ihren Einsatz in vielen technischen Anwendungen. Es folgt daher die Notwendigkeit die Fasern zu charakterisieren. Die Charakterisierung umfasst in der Regel auch die Bestimmung des Spannungs-Dehnungs-Diagramms von einzelnen Fasern. Dieser Artikel beschäftigt sich mit einem Messsystem welches zur Messung des Spannungs-Dehnungs-Diagramms, auch unter erschwerten Testbedingungen, wie z. B. die Messung bei hohen und höchsten Temperaturen, geeignet ist. Es erfolgt neben der Präsentation des Messsystems ebenfalls eine Diskussion der optimierten Signalverarbeitung. Betrachtet werden anschließend Ergebnisse der Translation der Oberfläche eines menschlichen Haares, montiert auf einer Linearachse. Aus diesen Verschiebungen lässt sich dann, im Falle der Bestimmung des Spannungs-Dehnungs-Diagramms, die technische Dehnung ableiten. Es wird ein auf einer 4f− Optik basierender Aufbau verwendet. Für diesen erweist sich das Schätzen der Verschiebungen weit unter der Wellenlänge auf Basis des Kreuzleistungsdichtespektrum – unter den untersuchten Methoden – als am zuverlässigsten. Abschließend werden potentielle zukünftige Optimierungen des Gesamtsystems angerissen.

Advances in microbial decorations and its applications in drug delivery
Authors: He Tongjiang , Zhao Zhendong , Luo Zhentao , Jia Wei , Zhang Jiatao , Zhao Yu , Xiao Wangchuan , Ming Zunzhen , Chen Kai
Published: December 2023

Microorganisms are mostly distributed on the surface of our skin and intestines and have crucial roles in physiologic and metabolic processes, such as digestion and immunity, which are closely related to diseases. Recently, microorganisms have received great attention and have been applied in various aspects of biomedicine, especially in the field of drug delivery. However, the application of bacteria has been largely limited due to the intrinsic nature of bacteria, including rapid proliferation, toxicity, and immunogenicity. Therefore, microbial decoration is an attention-grabbing approach to drug delivery by altering the properties and functions of microbial surfaces. Microbial decoration methods are diverse and include biotin-affinity and gene decoration technologies. These approaches can improve the specific delivery of drugs, enhance the stability and controlled release of drug delivery vehicles, and are useful in cancer therapy, gene therapy, and vaccine delivery. Microbial decoration has broad application prospects by helping develop smarter and more precise drug delivery systems and providing more effective and safer therapeutic options for patients. In this review we summarize the research progress in different microbial surface modification methods and the applications in drug delivery, as well as the outlook for future opportunities in this field.
«Don't let a Person Fall»: Quality Analysis of Projective Methodology
Authors:   Novosibirsk State Pedagogical University, Kalinina Julia A. , Belobrykina Olga A. ,   Novosibirsk State Pedagogical University
Published: December 2023

The article is devoted to the consideration of the problem of creating projective diagnostic methods. It is indicated that the modern projective methods offered to practitioners are developed without conceptual support and outside the content-analytical paradigm, which is the methodological basis of this type of diagnostic tools. The results of a structural and meaningful analysis of the «Do not let a person fall» methodology located on numerous sites on the Internet are presented. The methodological failure of the method, its diagnostic unsuitability were revealed. It is noted that the use of methods that do not meet methodological requirements significantly increases the risk of psychodiagnostic incompetence of specialists. In this regard, the authors believe that the formation of the ability for the future diagnostic to assess the quality of diagnostic tools and the level of professional responsibility that meets ethical requirements as a user should begin at the stage of university education.

Published: December 2023

In this paper, we propose a parallel algorithm for multidimensional data visualization combining the neural network (the self-organizing map-SOM) and Sammon’s mapping. Here n-dimensional vectors are projected onto the plane by using Sammon’s mapping taking into account the learning flow of the SOM. It is necessary to investigate some important factors that influence the efficiency of the parallel algorithm. The results of investigation allow us to optimize the number of the SOM training epochs, the number of the SOM training blocks, and the number of Sammon’s iterations.

Holderian functional central limit theorem for linear processes
Authors: Juodis Mindaugas
Published: December 2023

Let (Xt)t ≥ 1 be a linear process defined by Xt =  ∑i=0∞ψi εt-1 where (ψi, i ≥ 0) is a sequence of  real numbers and (εi , i ∈ Z) is a sequence of random variables with null expectation and variance 1. This paper provides Hölderian FCLT for (Xt)t ≥ 1 with wide class of filters. Filters with ψ(i) = l(i)/i for a slowly varying function l(i) are allowed. The weak convergence of polygonal line process build from sums of (Xt)t ≥ 1 to the standard Brownian motion W in the Hölder space (Hα), 0 < α < 1/2 - 1/τ holds provided the proper noise behavior is satisfied: E|ε1|τ < ∞, τ > 2.
WAR AS A DEVALUATION OF VALUES IN THE GLOBAL WORLD
Authors: SHAMRAI Viktoria
Published: December 2023

The article is devoted to transformations and the crisis of values in a global world. The genealogy of values is traced as a way of existence and justification of normativity characteristic of modernity. In this context, value is compared with cost. Both the first and second are reductions inherent in the modern way of human existence. Value personifies the reduction of the complex, heterogeneous, qualitatively diverse world of external goods of pre-industrial society to a single denominator of abstract labor. Same, the complexly structured and heterogeneous reality of due acquired the appearance of a single space of values. In this context, the theoretical limitations of the pan-production view of human historical development are analyzed. The current war, which in its impact on humanity has acquired a de facto global character, is considered as a defining symptom of the crisis of values in global reality. War as a feature of the modern world is significant not in itself, but as an expression of the growing role of violence in the life of global civilization. In turn, the increase in violence and coercion is a manifestation of an even deeper process — the depreciation of values. The depreciation of values does not mean the destruction of certain specific values, but in general the role of the due in human life. In this regard, a key question arises about the prospects for overcoming the process of depreciation of values. By analogy with the three recognized paradigms of philosophizing (being, consciousness/subject, language), three historical paradigms of normativity are distinguished: transpersonal indisputable prescriptions (“commandments”); mediated by personal reflection and recognition of binding significance (values); abstinences — negative normative presumptions aimed at ensuring peaceful productive interaction with guaranteed autonomy of participants in interactions. The development of the normative practice of such abstinences may be with a possible scenario for overcoming the depreciation of values in the global world.
European Vector of Hryhorii Skovoroda’s PHilosophy: Resonance of Media Transformations in XVIII century
Authors: KULTAIEVA Mariia
Published: December 2023

The article proposes the consideration of Skovoroda’s philosophical heritage in the complex contexts of the European philosophical thought in its historical dimension. This complexity was caused through the secular tendency of the Enlightenment ideology with its explanation patterns for human being and social life. The mediological method developed of R. Debray and A. Koschorke is used for analyzing of Skovoroda’s attitudes towards the Enlightenment innovations in cultural and political life. The contemporary narratives of the First, the Second and the Third Enlightenment are applied as pattern for explanation of Skovoroda’s attitude towards the secular trends in the culture and education caused of the Enlightenment ideology. Skovoroda is balancing on the edge of the First and Second Enlightenment: as a philosopher of freedom he makes human responsible for his way of life, but as philosopher of morality he defended the idea of God using the neo-platonic approach. The resurrection of Epicureanism in the Age of Enlightenment was a theoretical challenge for Skovoroda with resonance reactions because his ethical views were based on Epicurus concept of necessity as regulative principle for successful life which can be got without any effort. The religious anthropology developed of Skovoroda is considering in its anthropological-technical aspect. The central ideas of the First Enlightenment — omnipotence of education, disenchanting of religion and project of a new human are rethinking by Skovoroda from the perspective of his religious anthropology with imperatives of self-knowing and making distinction between visual and invisible thereby the way to the eternal truth is possible only possible by the new hermeneutic of the Bible. The semantics and heuristic metaphors in Skovoroda’s works are analyzed, which have a resonance effect with Protestantism and Freema sons ideas, some of which are actualized today.

Equipping modern unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) with thermal imaging cameras expands their potential utilization in various environmental conditions, enabling efficient aerial reconnaissance and execution of combat-related tasks. The primary objec- tives for target discrimination encompass detection, recognition, and identification. However, existing methods and algorithms for determining the probability of distinguishing targets do not offer an efficient and swift means of calculating these probabili- ties based on the target’s distance. This article aims to develop a novel method for calculating the probability of detecting, recognizing, and identifying an object (target) using a thermal imaging surveillance system. The proposed approach involves an improved algorithm that utilizes the Johnson criterion, as per the NATO standard 4347, the Schultz approximation of the threshold contrast for the operator’s perception of the image on the display screen, and incorporates the objective function of probability transfer along with probability transfer functions based on the target’s distance. An example illustrating the calculation of the target discrimination probability is included to provide clarity. With the suggested algorithm, the probability of detecting, recognizing, and identifying the target through the contrast-limited thermal imaging system of the drone can be rapidly calculated.

The article discusses the possibility of improving the method of converting the mass flow rate of the model gas (Ar) to the mass flow rate of the working gas (Xe) in capillary tubes. The well-known method of such conversion, which is used in electric propul- sion systems, is based on Poiseuille’s law for laminar flow. The results of the experimental verification of the method showed the accuracy from 21 % to 30 %. On the basis of the conducted experimental studies, it was proposed to enter a correction factor depending on the inner diameter of the capillary into the existing methodology of mass flow recalculation, which made it pos- sible to significantly reduce the error of recalculation of Ar mass flow rate into Xe mass flow rate to ±4 %. Increasing the accuracy of the calculation allows the wide use of argon model gas in the selection of capillary flow restrictors for feed systems of low- and medium-power electric propulsion systems and during testing of assembled systems at various stages of development and testing.
