Wende-Erfahrung zwischen Utopie und Dystopie in Lutz Seilers Romanen
Authors: Gortych Dominika
Published: January 2025

Twórczość jednego z najwybitniejszych współczesnych pisarzy niemieckich, Lutza Seilera, często jest rozpatrywana w kontekście przemian politycznych z lat 1989/1990. Zarówno poetyckie krajobrazy dzieciństwa ze skażonych uranem terenów byłego NRD w tej poezji i prozie eseistycznej, jak i dwa heterotopiczne światy w powieściach Kruso (2014) i Stern 111 (2020) zdają się dopuszczać takową lekturę. Jednak w tej postenerdowskiej literaturze zawarta jest także poetycka analiza indywidualnego i zbiorowego doświadczenia egzystencjalnego związanego z przełomem politycznym, prowadzona pod kątem jego utopijnego i dystopijnego potencjału. Jak szybko utopia może się przekształcić w dystopię, zostanie ukazane na przykładzie wybranych heterotopii w prozie Seilera.

Published: January 2025

Parcelling is the division of a sentence into two or more parts with a full stop. Parcelled construction consists of a main (basic) part and a partcellator. The partcellator comes after a full stop and is semantically and structurally dependent on the main part. The aim of this paper is to show the possibilities of using the Russian National Corpus (together with available tools) in the process of searching for parcelled constructions. The analysis shows that the use of corpus resources and tools is limited to certain types of parcelled constructions.

Authors: Hill Trevor
Published: January 2025

The positive effects of using drama in ELT have long been recognized, however this has often been explored from the context of the classroom. The article retroactively examines the activities of an English language youth theatre club for Polish teenagers as a social event organized in addition to their academic studies of the language. Special attention is paid to the use of classic texts (albeit adapted) by authors such as Shakespeare, and particularly the World War One poetry of Wilfred Owen. The article examines the techniques of using and performing the texts, the importance of gesture and intonation, as well as the necessity to explore cultural and historical aspects of the material. The students’ opinions of the work and the effect on their language learning were submitted in a questionnaire and are presented towards the end of the article.
Microembolic Signals on Transcranial Doppler Ultrasonography: A Narrative Review of a Decade of Evidence
Authors: Heo JoonNyung
Published: January 2025

Microembolic signals (MESs), detected via transcranial Doppler ultrasonography, are essential biomarkers for assessing cerebrovascular risk, embolic events, and treatment outcomes. In this review, studies published between 2014 and 2024 were evaluated, specifically focusing on the clinical implications, associated conditions, and opportunities for advancements in MES monitoring technologies. A systematic PubMed search identified 327 articles, of which 60 were finally included in this review. MESs are associated with various conditions, including carotid/cerebral artery stenosis and atrial fibrillation. They predict adverse outcomes, including increased stroke risk, cognitive decline, and complications from procedures such as endovascular thrombectomy and unruptured aneurysm coiling. Furthermore, MESs serve as a surrogate marker for embolism, allowing for the evaluation of different procedural techniques to determine which approach minimizes embolic events. Advances in MES monitoring, including algorithms that distinguish gaseous and solid emboli and applications in pediatric cardiac surgery, have expanded its clinical utility. Moreover, emerging wearable and wireless technologies may expand the possibilities for MES monitoring.

Satellite means of detecting and monitoring the mesoscale convective complex
Authors: Savorskiy V. P. , Chernushich A. P. , Panova O. Yu. , Kuznetsov O. O.
Published: January 2025

The possibility of increasing the accuracy of rainfall intensity retrieval based on space observations of atmospheric mesoscale convective complexes (MCC) is considered. It is shown that guaranteed detection of MCC requires complex observation of the Earth’s atmosphere in the IR and microwave ranges. The analysis showed that quasi-synchronous measurements from geostationary platforms in the IR range and observations from polar-orbital platforms in the microwave range are necessary to improve the retrieval accuracy. The method developed based on the analysis of MCC characteristics and capabilities of modern remote sensing satellite systems provides high time resolution of the MCC detection and monitoring system. The accuracy estimates of such quasi-synchronous measurements for currently existing sources of space information are obtained.

Published: January 2025

Market relations pose new challenges for agricultural producers. Their essence is the need to develop the most effective system of organization and management of sales. Efficiency of the organization of sale of products is one of the prerequisites for economic efficiency of agricultural production and depends to a large extent on the directions of its realization [1]. The low efficiency of the agricultural sales system results in significant losses of agricultural producers' produce and income. The choice of sales channels is an important management decision because the turnover directly affects the revenue and thus the profit of the enterprise. The sale of products through different channels for a particular agricultural enterprise is a difficult task, both organizationally and economically. The purpose of the study is to determine the optimal structure and volume of sales of agricultural products by the method of analysis of hierarchies. The study was carried out in cooperation with the agricultural company Svarog West Group. A hierarchical model of decision making regarding the optimal choice of marketing channels for horticultural products is constructed. The preferences of company executives over the criteria and each of the alternatives by defined criteria were determined by paired comparisons on the Saati scale. The resulting pairwise matrices and normalized estimator matrices were used to obtain a global ranking, reflecting the decision makers' preferences for individual decision options. The resulting pairwise matrices and normalized estimator matrices were used to obtain a global ranking, reflecting the decision makers' preferences for individual decision options. Recommendations were made regarding the volume of sales of products through different channels.

Authors: MEISH А. , MATVIYCHUK O. ,   Khmelnytskyi National University
Published: January 2025

The article deals with the types and models of national economies. The national economy as an independent science is relatively young, but its prerequisites have been forming for centuries. It means a gradual accumulation of general ideas and concepts on the basis of functioning and development of the country's economy; taking into account during scientific research not only the general laws and laws of economic development but also the national specifics of the country's economy. The most significant specific features of national economies are the resource support of production processes (the presence of factors of production) and the economic potential of the country. There are few countries that fully equipped with production factors. But there are countries where one of the factors is the leading one, enabling their economies to focus on the effective use of this resource. Based on the specifics of countries and their climatic, geographical, historical, geopolitical, socio-cultural and other factors, different models of the national economy emerge nowadays (American liberal model, the German model of a social market economy, Swedish social model, Japanese model of regulated capitalism). Therefore, the formation of a market economy in Ukraine considers its unique features and national specificity.

Each industry market has specific characteristics, but there are common features of their operation, such as market concentration at the industry level, barriers to entry into the industry market, product differentiation, vertical relationships between firms, price discrimination, strategic behaviour of firms, trends in globalization and more. The theoretical understanding of these processes makes it possible to expand and systematize the directions of effective functioning and development of sectoral markets and the economy as a whole, to determine the directions of regulation of sectoral markets in the current conditions. The relevance of theoretical analysis of the functioning and development of sectoral markets is connected with the need to solve three groups of problems of the Ukrainian economy: increasing the efficiency of functioning of sectoral markets, overcoming sectoral disparities in the structure of the economic system, increasing the competitiveness of the national economy in the global economic space. The solution to these problems is possible on the basis of research of institutional principles of functioning of sectoral markets that combine market mechanism of self-regulation, state regulation and formation of effective institutions that would ensure realization of national interests of development of Ukrainian economy in the conditions of globalization.

Published: January 2025

The purpose of this study is to determine the essence of merchandising as a way to manage the assortment of goods in retail networks of large-format trading enterprises, its tools, as well as to identify the range of problems and obstacles to the development of merchandising in retail networks, how to overcome them and stimulate sales in network trading structures. To achieve this goal, a range of research tasks was defined, among which: 1) the study of the nature and tools of merchandising in retail chains; 2) the formation of the author’s definition of merchandising and its tasks; 3) determination of the range of problems and obstacles to the development of merchandising in network trading structures; 4) determination of ways to solve these problems and improve sales promotion in retail chains. Having studied different approaches to determining the essence of merchandising, the author gives his generalized definition, which is based on the ambiguity of the etymology of the word "merchandising" and, accordingly, on its diversity and invariance. Based on this, the author notes the scientific uncertainty in determining the essence of merchandising and suggests considering it as a tool for creating conditions for consumers to make purchases, which, in turn, provide a trading company with an increase in sales. The author determines that the main objectives of merchandising in retail chains are sales promotion, improvement of the trade and technological process, formation of the store’s competitive advantages and so on. The main tools for merchandising are an assortment of goods, advertising media, design of a trading company. Thus, the main problems of using merchandising tools in domestic trading enterprises are: significant material costs, the inability to fully realize within small trading enterprises, a shortage of qualified specialists, and so on. Based on a critical analysis, the author suggests, in order to solve these problems, create a merchandising division within the commercial department, develop a merchandising concept and, subsequently, its standards. Also, on the basis of the study, the author suggests the use of unconventional, but very effective methods and tools of sales promotion, such as personal communication with potential consumers via SMS, email, social networks, phishing advertising, widespread use of referral and digital marketing tools, WOM marketing and so on.

SIMULATION MODEL OF THE WAREHOUSE SYSTEM AT THE PROCESS MANUFACTURING ENTERPRISE
Authors: LEVKOVSKYI M. , DRACH I. ,   Khmelnytskyi National University
Published: January 2025

Simulation modelling is a generally recognized method for researching complex dynamic systems. It is widely used in various fields of science, business and manufacturing. One of the most important functions of logistics systems is managing stock, which involves finding the optimal level of stock with the minimum cost of its creation and maintenance [1]. The consequences of nonoptimal stock can be significant. For instance, an excess of goods leads to an increase in storage costs and a "freezing" of the company capital. The shortage of goods, in turn, leads to a decrease in sales, the level of service, the degree of customer satisfaction, and in the profit of the enterprise. All these factors negatively affect the performance of most operations of the enterprise warehouse system. A modern tool for studying the material flow of warehouse systems is the method of simulation modelling. This method allows to find the optimum parameters of work of both existing and projected warehouse. The main advantage of the method is the ability to perform a series of computer experiments with the simulated system, without interrupting the current technological operations at the existing warehouse, as well as to check different scenarios of the projected warehouse before its operation. This article provides an example of building an optimized model of a warehouse system intended to determine the total time required to fully load the warehouse and the time to process the operations related to the goods at the warehouse processing points for increasing the amount of products stored at the warehouse of the PLC “Letychiv Formula-Feed Plant”. The article contains the description of a simulation optimization model of the commercial enterprise for formula-feed production, as well as the results obtained by conducting experiments with this model. The simulation model is implemented in the MatLab application suite of the Simulink subsystem.

The Axial behaviour of Concrete Filled Double Skinned Steel Tubular (CFDST) column with concrete imperfections
Authors: Patel Arth J. Patel , Purohit Sharadkumar
Published: January 2025

Concrete Filled Double Skinned Steel Tubular (CFDST) composite column is preferred over Concrete Filled Steel Tube composite column (CFST) owing to enhanced strength. However, they may possess concrete imperfection due to shrinkage and creep of concrete and the construction practices adopted. Concrete imperfection may lead to overestimation of strength, reduction in ductility, and composite action of CFDST column. This paper discusses axial compression tests conducted on outer circular and square and inner square-shaped CFDST columns with and without concrete imperfections. Parameters considered in the study include i) shape of the outer steel tube, ii) circumferential gap ratio (1.1% and 2.2%), and iii) spherical or rectangular gap ratio (4.4% and 8.8%). Results of the test in terms of strength, ductility, confinement effect, strain profile along the length, and failure modes are studied in depth. It is observed that the circumferential gap ratio has a significant impact on the peak axial load-carrying capacity of CFDST columns. Ductility of CFDST column reduces with an increase in the concrete imperfection gap ratio. While CFDST columns with circular steel tube yield global buckling failure modes, square outer steel tube exhibit local buckling failure modes. New strength reduction factors are proposed to account impact of circumferential and spherical or rectangular concrete imperfections on load carrying capacity estimation of CFDST column.

Critique of Spiritual Concepts in Transpersonal Psychology and Their Interrelation with The Qur’ān
Authors: Haryanto Sri , Muslih Mohammad
Published: January 2025

Spirituality holds a significant position within transpersonal psychology, where it is deemed crucial for individual development and psychological well-being. This research conducts a critical analysis of spiritual concepts within transpersonal psychology vis-à-vis the teachings of the Al-Qur'ān. The primary aim of this research is to delineate the similarities and disparities in the understanding of spirituality between transpersonal psychology and Qur’ānic concept of spirituality through an in-depth examination of literature and theoretical perspectives. The outcomes of this study are intended to highlight the importance of comprehending the multifaceted and diverse interpretations of spirituality across various contexts. In addition, a content analysis approach will be employed in this study, in which the gathered data will be meticulously screened. This research finds out that transpersonal psychology places spirituality as a central theme in its studies. In transpersonal psychology, spirituality refers more to human aspirations for a meaningful life and as a source of human qualities. In other words, spirituality in the transpersonal psychology conception focuses more on aspects of human spirituality without touching on broader spiritual dimensions as taught in religions. While Qur’ānic concept of spirituality encompasses more than just their inner attributes that are connected to transcendental objects; it also includes their spirit's essence and existence, which has a unique purpose that transcends their physical function, reason, and soul.
Morality from Classical Civilizations to Post-Modern Era: A Historical Account Through Islamic Lens
Authors: Shaukat Muhammad Awais , Samra Umbreen , Hassan Javaria , Saadi Chafika , Hayat Imran
Published: January 2025

The article provides a comprehensive exploration of the evolution of moral values across various civilizations. It begins by defining morality as a complex system of beliefs and ethical standards that shape human behavior and differentiate between right and wrong. The article then traces the historical perspectives on morality, starting from early classical civilizations like the Greeks and Hindus, to the influence of Semitic religions, particularly Islam, on the development of a coherent moral code. The central thesis revolves around how the perception of morality has shifted significantly over time, from a divine and transcendental pursuit in traditional civilizations to a secular, subjective notion in the modern Western world. The article highlights how traditional systems viewed morality as a pathway to achieving inner peace and cosmic harmony, while the Semitic religions, especially Islam, emphasize the divine command theory, where moral values are absolute, eternal, and rooted in the Qur’an and the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). In contrast, modern Western thought, emerging after the Renaissance, places the individual at the center of morality, favoring subjective reasoning over divine guidance. The final sections argue that Islamic morality, unlike other systems, offers a balance between human instincts and divine will, portraying man as inherently good yet capable of moral failures. Islamic teachings provide a comprehensive and timeless framework for human conduct, ensuring both personal and societal harmony. The article concludes that the true understanding of morality lies in adhering to a divinely revealed code, as human nature is susceptible to corruption without the guiding principles set forth by Allah as mentioned in Quran and Hadith.

A couple's commitment to forming a household begins with harmony through several pre-marital stages. These stages are related to local wisdom that must be considered important to prevent early divorce. The current study aimed to revive a pearl of local wisdom, namely merasi, to revitalize it in order to find the harmony of a mate and make efforts to prevent early divorce. Additionally, the study employed a qualitative method for data analysis through observation, literature review, and content analysis of local wisdom and Islamic law. The study was conducted using deductive and inductive methods in placing the practice of merasi as an acculturation of Islamic teachings. The impact of globalization, on the culture of individualism and hedonistic lifestyles, has caused an increase in the cases of early divorce. The incompatibility of married couples is one of the most common causes of early divorce, which should have been identified by the practice of merasi. This practice needs to be revitalized in order to reduce the divorce rate among young couples. Acculturation is related to the practice of merasi as a local wisdom aimed to organize the household.

Process Flow Diagrams (PFDs) and Process and Instrumentation Diagrams (PIDs) are critical tools for industrial process design, control, and safety. However, the generation of precise and regulation-compliant diagrams remains a significant challenge, particularly in scaling breakthroughs from material discovery to industrial production in an era of automation and digitalization. This paper introduces an autonomous agentic framework to address these challenges through a two-stage approach involving knowledge acquisition and generation. The framework integrates specialized sub-agents for retrieving and synthesizing multimodal data from publicly available online sources and constructs ontological knowledge graphs using a Graph Retrieval-Augmented Generation (Graph RAG) paradigm. These capabilities enable the automation of diagram generation and open-domain question answering (ODQA) tasks with high contextual accuracy. Extensive empirical experiments demonstrate the framework’s ability to deliver regulation-compliant diagrams with minimal expert intervention, highlighting its practical utility for industrial applications.

Gobernanza ambiental y justicia climática como fundamentos para la integración centroamericana resiliente: Miradas desde el desempeño de la Agenda 2030, los efectos del Covid-19 y los acuerdos de la COP26*
Authors: Rojas Morales José Rodrigo
Published: January 2025

Gobernanza ambiental y justicia climática describen las encrucijadas y desafíos que deben enfrentar los países centroamericanos en materia de desarrollo humano sostenible y resiliente. Estos paradigmas no solo revelan los pasivos que adeuda la región, en materia de soluciones basadas en la naturaleza, sino que justifican la premura con la que se deben de tomar acciones para reducir brechas sin dejar a nadie atrás. A cinco años de la firma de la Agenda 2030, en tiempos de pandemia y con la COP 26 recién finalizada, esta investigación expone, con base documental, principios de realidad sobre los países del ecosistema centroamericano. Los hallazgos demuestran que los esfuerzos de la región por contener trayectorias negativas son permanentes, pero insuficientes para revertir tendencias hacia el riesgo y detrimento ambiental. Esta investigación no pretende magnificar problemas, sino ofrecer recomendaciones para la integración regional ecológicamente justa, inclusiva y climáticamente resiliente
