Coercive force, which is one of the structure-sensitive characteristics of ferromagnetic materials, is most often used for magnetic analysis. This approach requires the use of powerful magnetization systems, which leads to an increase in the size of the attachable magnetic probe and, accordingly, to a decrease in the locality of control. The above-mentioned disadvantages can be eliminated by using the parameters of the dynamic magnetic hysteresis loop (MHL), which involves the use of variable magnetic fields. A device for studying the dynamic MHL during cyclic remagnetization for the tasks of testing ferromagnetic materials, namely structural analysis, is proposed. The device consists of a generator of sinusoidal signals, an amplifier, a cur¬rent sensor, an attachable magnetic probe, a two-channel analog-to-digital converter (ADC), and a computer. The attachable magnetic probe is proposed in the form of a U-shaped core with magnetization windings on one leg and measurement winding on the other leg. The signal from the generator through the amplifier and the current sensor enters the magnetization winding. The ADC receives two signals: first one – from the measurement winding, and second – from the current sensor. Both signals from the ADC output in digital form are processed and analyzed by the computer using the developed specialized software in the LabVIEW language. Due to the developed software the filtering and integration of the signal from the measuring winding as well as the MHL plotting and MHL parameters calculation was realized. To reduce interference when determining MHL parameters, averaging over 50 magnetization cycles was performed. The attachable magnetic probe with the dimensions of the contact part 30x17 mm created a field with a strength of 300 A/m at a frequency of 50 Hz. The device was tested on specimens of sheet steel of 09G2S type with a thickness of 4 mm, in which uniaxial tensile stresses were created. The obtained results show the sensitivity of the dynamic MHL area to mechanical tensile stresses, as it increases from 14.8 to 16.8 mT A/m during loading.

Determination of positions and electrical currents of underground pipelines using the electro¬magnetic method allows us to draw conclusions about the quality of the insulation of pipelines. The analysis of the spatial characteristics of the magnetic field of the low-frequency current of the pipeline is carried out on the basis of the Biot-Savard-Laplace law, which determines the dependence of the components of the magnetic field on the given current in a homogeneous, boundless space. It is shown that for two or more parallel pipelines to each other placed close, it is necessary to take into account their total magnetic field. A mathematical model of the magnetic field of parallel rectilinear alternating electric currents was developed, taking into account the phase difference between them, which leads to the emergence of an elliptically polarized total magnetic field. The methods of determining the coordinates of the currents of parallel underground pipelines are analyzed. The relation of the components of the magnetic field for different coordinates of the pipelines, currents and the phase difference between the currents was obtained. Known methods of determining the coor¬dinates and currents of parallel underground pipelines are intended for the partial case of linear polarization of the magnetic field (with in-phase or anti-phase currents). In the general case of elliptic polarization of the magnetic field, a combination of tuning and scanning methods should be used.

In the field of remote sensing, the classification and recognition of multi-spectral images play a key role in understanding and monitoring our environment. This paper introduces an innovative method that leverages multi-threshold binarization for feature extraction in the classification and recognition of multi-spectral images. The core idea of this approach is to represent the intricate characteristics of multi-spectral images through a series of binary attributes, each of which captures specific image properties. One of the key findings of this research is the corre¬lation between the size of the training dataset and the performance accuracy of the classifier trained on this dataset. This relationship shows on the importance of having an appropriately sized training dataset to achieve high classification precision. Moreover, the approach offers a significant advantage in terms of efficiency compared to traditional convolutional neural network-based training processes. The reduced training time and faster operation of the method open up exciting possibilities for real-time recognition and classification of multi-spectral images. To validate the effectiveness of the approach, we conducted experiments on various test training datasets of multi-spectral images, and the results of these evaluations are presented. The findings highlight the promising potential of this method for a wide range of applications, including environmental monitoring, urban planning, and agricultural management, where accurate and real-time classification is essential. It is proposed a novel approach to multi-spectral image classification, employing multi-threshold binarization for feature extraction. The method’s ability to represent image features as binary characteristics offers a fresh perspective in the field of remote sensing. The findings of this research not only contribute to advancing the state of the art in multi-spectral image analysis but also provide a practical and efficient solution for real-time recognition and classification, aligning with the growing demands of various applications.

Los pioneros de la entomología en Costa Rica
Authors: Hilje Quirós Luko
Published: December 2023

Introducción: El estudio de los insectos suscitó el interés de los naturalistas que exploraron Costa Rica desde el siglo XIX, lo cual obedeció a iniciativas personales, y no a un esfuerzo estatal para promover la investigación sistemática de la entomofauna del país, y así continuó por más de un siglo.

Objetivo: Ofrecer una panorámica del desarrollo de la entomología, desde la época republicana hasta la fundación del Museo de Insectos en la Universidad de Costa Rica (UCR). 

Métodos: Para reconstruir este proceso, se recurrió especialmente a los archivos y bases de datos de museos y bibliotecas, tanto nacionales como extranjeras. 

Resultados: El primero en estudiar los insectos de Costa Rica fue el naturalista alemán Karl Hoffmann, a partir de 1854, pero murió joven. Fue secundado por el suizo Paul Biolley en 1886, quien a su vez formó a José Fidel Tristán como el primer entomólogo costarricense, al tiempo que los ingleses Osbert Salvin y Frederick D. Godman impulsaban Biologia Centrali-Americana, monumental obra de carácter ístmico. Temprano en el siglo XX llegaron varios estadounidenses, entre quienes destacaron William M. Schaus y los esposos Philip y Amelia Calvert. Posteriormente, al fomentarse el desarrollo agropecuario del país, en el decenio de 1930, se impulsó la enseñanza de la entomología aplicada, para lo cual, en diferentes momentos, fueron contratados el estadounidense Charles Ballou y los alemanes Fernando Nevermann y Alexander Bierig. Finalmente, en 1959 la UCR reclutó desde EE. UU. al costarricense Álvaro Wille, quien en 1962 fundó el Museo de Insectos. 

Conclusiones: En un intervalo de 110 años se vivió un proceso lento, desarticulado y hasta azaroso en el desarrollo de la entomología en el país, el cual culminó en 1962 con el inicio de la institucionalización de esta disciplina, hasta convertirse en un componente de la vida cotidiana nacional.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the common pathogens causing serious infections in fish, consequently high economic losses in freshwater aquaculture. This study was carried out to investigate the prevalence, antibiotic sensitivity, and distribution of virulence genes (oprL, toxA, exoS, fliC and pelA) and antibiotic resistance genes (blaTEM and blaCTX-M) related to natural infection of P.aeurginosa among some cultured freshwater fish. A total of 100 Oreochromis niloticus fish were randomly collected from EL-Manzla lake in Port-Said Governorate, Egypt. Clinical and bacteriological examinations were performed on P. aeruginosa, recovered from O. niloticus (32/100; 32%). The PCR results revealed that all isolates harboured 16srRNA conserved gene, oprL virulence gene, whereas only 87.1%, 84.3% were positive for the toxA and pelA gene, respectively. In addition only 37.5% and 15.7% were positive for the fliC and exoS gene, respectively. Depending on the antibiotic sensiti­vity and molecular analysis of resistance genes, 12.5% of the tested isolates exhibited multi‑drug resistance (MDR) to four antimicrobial classes (penicillins, cephalosporins, tetracyclines and sulfonamides) and harboured the blaTEM and blaCTX-M resistance genes as well as oprL, toxA and pelA virulence genes. MDR to three antimicrobial classes (penicillins, cephalosporins and fluroquinolones) was demonstrated by 9.4% of the tested isolates which harboured the blaTEM and blaCTX-M resistance genes as well as oprL, toxA and pelA virulence genes. Of tested isolates, 12.5% exhibited extensive drug resistance (XDR) to five antimicrobial classes (penicillins, cephalosporins, tetracyclines, aminoglycosides and sulfonamides) harbouring the blaTEM and blaCTX-M resistance genes as well as oprL, toxA, exoS and pelA virulence genes. The emergence of MDR and XDR strains is regarded as a public health issue and indicates improper treatment and a bad prognosis of infections caused by P. aeru­ginosa

Authors:   Fire University, Gromek Paweł
Published: December 2023

This article presents a theoretical connection of armed forces operations and a disaster risk reduction concept. The objective is to elaborate a model of armed forces participation in disaster risk reduction in relation to the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015–2030. The research method bases on a review of the literature and a cognitive design of the participation model. General role of armed forces, potential and societal expectations are factors that place them in a context of disaster risk reduction. Soldiers are said to participate in protection of the most important utilitarian values regardless of circumstances (military hazards and non-military hazards). Their operations might be ascribed into limiting of hazard power, reducing vulnerabilities, shortening exposure, improving resilience, and strengthening capacities to cope with a disaster. They can reduce the risk associated with military hazards and non-military hazards. The concept may be a reference in designing synergy in cooperation between military and non-military entities.
Food Security and International Security: Tracing the Links
Authors:   Maria Curie-Skłodowska University in Lublin, Marzęda-Młynarska Katarzyna
Published: December 2023

The article aims to analyze food security from the perspective of international security studies. Russia’s aggression against Ukraine in February 2022 has generated renewed interest in food security. The undeniable links between war and famine have taken on an added dimension in this conflict due to the importance of both warring parties to the global food market. While the way food security is conceptualized points to its indirect relationship with international security, the change that took place in the study of international security after the Cold War recognized socio-economic problems as equivalent of threats to the national security. The analysis allowed the following conclusions. First, food security should be treated as a new research area of international security because it challenges the stability of the global socio-economic system. Second, as the 2008 and 2010–2011 food crises, the COVID-19 pandemic and Russia’s aggression against Ukraine have shown, food insecurity generates threats to international security.
Instrumentalization of the COVID-19 Pandemic to Consolidate the Authoritarian Power of Nicolás Maduro and Transform Venezuela into a Police State
Authors:   University of Silesia in Katowice, Łapaj-Kucharska Justyna
Published: December 2023

For Venezuela, the COVID-19 pandemic has hit a country that already has been in a multidimensional crisis for years in circumstances of economic and social devastation, and authoritarian rule. However, the pandemic accelerated Venezuela’s transformation into a police state by introducing unsubstantiated pandemic restrictions that were enforced by the state security apparatus and abusive armed forces. The aim of the article is to show the instrumentalization of the COVID-19 pandemic in the area of radicalization of the Maduro regime and to answer the questions in which areas of the state’s functioning and in what dimension the Nicolás Maduro regime used the pandemic and the related restrictions on civil rights to strengthen its authoritarian power, radicalize the activities of the security services, violate human rights, and to transform Venezuela into a police state.
Response of Inclusive Growth to Development Aid in Africa and the Role of ICT Diffusion
Authors:   Ural Federal University named after the first President of Russia B.N. Yeltsin, Mamman S. O.
Published: December 2023

Over the years, some regions of Africa have witnessed stable economic growth, which could not be considered pro-poor or inclusive given the region’s high rate of poverty and income inequality. Development aid flow, on the other hand, has been contended to be a pro-poor strategy, which could play a key role in the drive towards the achievement of sustainable, inclusive growth in Africa. Thus, the purpose of this paper is to evaluate the role of development aid, which has been argued to be welfare-enhancing, especially in developing countries, taking into account digitalization. The research hypothesis is that development aid in the form of foreign aid and remittances promotes inclusive growth, especially in the face of digitalization in Africa. Premised on the inclusive growth-aid nexus, the study carried out panel data analysis using the common correlation effect technique for 50 African countries from 1996 to 2021. The main findings reveal that remittances have a welfare-enhancing effect through improving inclusive growth. Foreign aid, on the other hand, had a positive effect but was not significant, which was attributed to the weak institutional framework in the region. Digitalization was observed to have an adverse effect attributed to its high affordability. The theoretical contribution of the study is the incorporation of structural systems such as digitalization in the nexus between inclusive growth and development aid, which has been identified as a facilitator in the drive for inclusive growth. In terms of practical significance, the study highlights the need for digital reforms and investment in this sector as well as the need to address the institutional gap to mitigate the inefficiencies of development aid performance.
Assessment of the Impact of Social Tax Deductions for Personal Income Tax on the Welfare and Inequality of Citizens in Russia
Authors:   P.G. Demidov Yaroslavl State University, Pugachev Andrey A.
Published: December 2023

The increase in the demand for social tax deductions for personal income tax and the increase in their limits, along with the need to overcome poverty and inequality in Russia, are enshrined in the 2023 Presidential Address, which determines the relevance of research on the impact of social tax deductions on welfare and income inequality. The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of social tax deductions for personal income tax on the welfare and inequality of citizens in Russia. The hypothesis of the study is that the impact of social tax deductions for personal income tax on the welfare of citizens is insignificant; their impact potential is not realized. As part of the study, correlation and regression analysis was applied (the "Data Analysis" package in Excel): the influence of the share of social tax deductions in the amount of income from personal income tax (factor indicator) on indicators of well-being and inequality (resulting indicators) was estimated. The study uses statistical data from the Federal Tax Service, Rosstat and the database of the study of the transformation of inequality of citizens in Russia, conducted in 2022. As a result of the study, a close relationship was established between the share of social tax deductions in the total amount of personal income tax and indicators of inequality: the Gini coefficient and the quintile coefficient of funds, as well as the lack of connection with indicators of well-being. Social tax deductions smooth out the inequality of citizens to a certain extent, but they have no impact on the level of well-being. Strengthening the importance of social tax deductions for personal income tax is possible due to an increase in their limits. The directions of improving the provision of social tax deductions are differentiation of categories of recipients, indexation of deduction limits and simplification of the procedure for obtaining them. The theoretical significance of the study is to develop an assessment of the impact of social tax deductions on the welfare and inequality of citizens, as well as to enhance it, in comparison with the traditional approach, by analyzing the results of a sociological survey on the demand for deductions by taxpayers. The practical significance of the study is determined by the possibility of taking into account proposals for improving social tax deductions to smooth out inequality.

Modern waves of crises associated with the pandemic and geopolitical tensions threaten the achievement of sustainable development goals and stimulate a rethinking of the essence and role of operational reliability in achieving the balanced development of organizations. The purpose of the article is to assess the impact of sustainable development practices and ensuring the reliability of enterprise functioning on the performance of Russian industrial enterprises in the context of the observed fragmentation of the world economy associated with deglobalization trends, increased sanctions pressure and disruptions in supply chains in developed and developing countries. The methodological basis of the study was the concepts of green economy and the development of production systems associated with frugality and reliability. Factor analysis and linear regression were chosen as research methods to assess individual variables of greening production, lean production and operational reliability as aspects of sustainable development of Russian industrial enterprises. The empirical basis was based on data from a survey of 225 employees of metallurgical and mechanical engineering enterprises in the Sverdlovsk region, conducted at the beginning of 2023. The structured questionnaire developed by the authors made it possible to identify various aspects of sustainable development and reliability. Based on the results of factor analysis, a number of heterogeneous theoretical constructs in the field of frugality, green economy, enterprise reliability and their operational performance were identified and confirmed. Regression analysis showed that, on the one hand, the practices of frugality and reliability have a positive effect on the operational performance of industrial enterprises in the region, which confirms the need to reduce implicit costs while ensuring a sufficient level of reliability; on the other hand, adhering to the principles of the green economy has a negative impact on the operational performance of industrial enterprises in the short term. The inconsistency of the results obtained regarding the environmental aspect of sustainable development does not mean a refusal to achieve the goals of a green economy, but indicates the need to revise investment policies and development strategies in the context of economic fragmentation, taking into account the characteristics of the development of industrial enterprises.

The organization of interaction between economic entities through the formation of algorithmic models makes it possible to generate positive effects both for individual users and for the national economy. It is relevant to study the factors that make it possible to intensify the use of digital platforms by the population, since an increase in the number of users leads to a growth of this sector of the economy and an increasing manifestation of the positive effects of digitalization. The purpose of the article is to identify a correlation between the indicator of the intensity of the use of digital platforms related to the commercial sector of the economy, the sector of public services and social networks, and indicators characterizing the factors of infrastructural access to the digital platform, digital competencies of the population and information security of users. The hypothesis of the study is that the intensity of the use of digital platforms by the population depends on the development of the digital infrastructure, the digital competencies of the population, and the information security of users. The research methodology is based on an index assessment of the level of digitalization of the economy; the development of this methodology is carried out by determining the connectivity of the digitalization indices of the regions of the Russian Federation and the indicator of the intensity of the use of digital platforms by the population, defined for the corresponding territory. The obtained results of the study made it possible to identify a high correlation between the indicator of the use of digital platforms of various types by the population with the factors of providing the population with access to the Internet in public places and means of transportation, the competences of the population regarding the use of the Internet for ordering goods and services via the Internet and receiving public services. The study of the factors of the intensity of the use of digital platforms by the population presented in the article makes it possible to determine the relationship between the indices of digitalization of the regions of the Russian Federation and the indicator of the intensity of use of digital platforms by the population, defined for the corresponding territory. The results obtained make it possible to contribute to the methodology of researching digital platforms and are of practical importance for the formation of programs to involve the population in the use of digital platforms in order to accelerate the digitalization of the economy.

Published: December 2023

A comprehensive experimental study was performed on the influence of Microencapsulated Phase Change Materials (MPCMs) on the heat transfer performance in an oscillating heat pipe (OHP). The concept is based on the latent heat enhancement of MPCMs within the OHP: as the thermally excited oscillations propel MPCMs from the condenser to the evaporator, they undergo a phase change from solid to liquid, effectively absorbing and storing more thermal energy. Subsequently, when these MPCMs reach the condenser section, they change back to a solid state, releasing the stored thermal energy. In the investigation, MPCMs of various diameters (ranging from 10 μm to 27 μm) were prepared and added to water, the working fluid. The study explored the effects of encapsulation ratio, encapsulation efficiency, geometric dimensions, density, and latent heat of MPCMs on the overall thermal performance of the OHP. The experimental findings demonstrated that the incorporation of MPCMs into the working fluid enhanced the OHP's heat transport capability. The optimal performance was observed at an MPCM weight concentration of 3% in the base fluid (water), which resulted in an impressive 15.5% increase in thermal conductance for the OHP. These results highlight the promising potential of MPCMs as effective enhancers for OHPs, paving the way for more efficient and advanced heat transfer systems in various engineering applications.
Bulgaristan’daki Osmanlı Vakıf Kütüphanelerinin Tarihi Seyri ve Osmanlı Sonrası Kaderi
Authors: SABEV Orlin
Published: December 2023

Bulgar topraklarında yüzyıllar süren Osmanlı hakimiyeti boyunca biriken zengin kitap koleksiyonlarının kaderi, sosyal ve siyasi yaşamın dinamikleri tarafından belirlenmiştir ki, savaşlar, devlet ve siyasi rejim değişiklikleri, ideolojik konjonktür kaçınılmaz olarak bu mirasın tam olarak korunmasını olumsuz yönde etkilemiştir. Bildiğimiz arşiv ve anlatı kaynaklarına göre, Bulgaristan topraklarında yaklaşık 40 tane büyük Osmanlı vakıf kütüphanesi kurulmuş ve faaliyet göstermiştir. 1878 yılında Bulgaristan Prensliği’nin kuruluşundan sonra bu koleksiyonların önemli bir kısmı Sofya’ya aktarılmış ve böylece Milli Kütüphane’nin zengin koleksiyonu oluşmuştur. Kitapların bir kısmı da 93 Harbi ya da Balkan Savaşı sırasında kaçan bazı kütüphaneciler tarafından ya da Osmanlı yetkililerinin ısrarı üzerine İstanbul’a getirilmiştir. Bulgaristan’da Rus işgalinin kısa sürdüğü dönemde (1877-1879) bazı kitaplar Rusya’ya götürülmüştür. Makalede, Bulgaristan topraklarında yüzyıllar boyunca biriken Osmanlı kitap mirasının yok edildiği veya dağıldığı, farklı yönlerde hayatta kalmaya çalıştığı çalkantılı savaş ve savaş sonrası dönem üzerinde daha ayrıntılı olarak durulacaktır.
EPISTEMOLOGICAL FOUNDATIONS OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF PERSONAL THINKING: FROM BODILY AND SOCIAL AWARENESS TO MORAL ISSUES
Authors:   Herzen State Pedagogical University of Russia, Lebedev Nikita S.
Published: December 2023

The humanistic educational paradigm assumes an emphasis on the development of personality and social-ity, in connection with which practices and methods of thinking development are actively introduced into education, those being aimed, inter alia, at the formation of personal and social awareness, responsibility, and participation. The paper presents a study of the epistemological foundations of pedagogical practices aimed at the development of personal thinking as a purposeful exploration of one’s own physicality, cog-nitive abilities, attitudes, and values in the context of moral issues, the tasks of developing self-regulation and self-actualization of personality in modern education.A fundamental theoretical basis of the research includes classical philosophical sources (Descartes, Spinoza, Kant, Fichte, Hegel) as well as modern works in the field of psychology, social and cognitive sciences, epistemology. Using Hegel’sapproach to the analysis of the necessary stages of the formation (Bildung) of self-consciousness in the «science of consciousness experience», it is proposed to match the stages of the formation of self-consciousness in the history of world culture with the stages of the development of reflection of consciousness in individu-al experience, including relying on the differentiation-integration theory of development (N.I.Chuprikova, Yu.I.Alexandrov, etal.) Basing on the material of history of philosophy and looking at it through the prism of developmental psychology, the study considers the epistemological foundations of self-regulation development practices. Through the analysis of the problems of ethic self-consciousness (allgemein Selbstbewusstsein) fromthe standpoint of classical philosophy, a conclusion is made about the need for further theoretical and methodological study of the philosophical and psychological-pedagogical practices of self-cognition and self-consciousness used in education taking into account the relevant data of modern science and epistemology. The paper substantiates the conclusion about the productivity and expediency of further philosophical conceptualization of the methodology and theoretical foundations of pedagogical practices used in the modern educational process to teach students how to reflect on their bodily and mental experience in the context of growing interest in the development of personal, bodily, and social awareness in education.
BLASÉ ATTITUDE AND THE MODERN DIGITAL CITY

Published: December 2023

The article provides an analysis of the category «blasé attitude»inferred by G.Simmel as a specific feature of the mental and social life of big cities. The study deals with the sources of the formation of blasé attitude and its key aspects as well as the transformation of the blasé attitude mechanism and the use in different «points»of social space, including in cyberenvironment. In addition, the «blasé attitude trap»is described, which is when the efforts expended in order to reduce nervous tension do not lead to the desired result and can even increase the intellectual load. The paper separately examines changes in the mechanism of blasé at-titude under lockdown and self-isolation of the population of big cities during the COVID-19 pandemic, characterized by the possibilities of using urban environment and its economic and socio-cultural infrastruc-ture being significantly reduced or requiring that a person literally let the space of the city into their own home. The latter leads to the search for ways of reducing the heterotopicity of space, to a focus on the pro-duction of counteracting factors and the use of available physical constraints. The examples considered in the paper show the transformation of not only everyday life but also the practices of maintaining the usual way of building relationships with Others in changing circumstances. The modern city is described through such categories as «flânerie»and «civil inattention», which, in combination with «blasé attitude», allow us to demonstrate the transformation of everyday practices of the inhabitants of a big city. Citizens seek to re-duce the risks of digitalization by finding ways to preserve the rules of the functioning of social systems and fix the boundaries of their operation, even if the boundaries are violated or it is impossible to separate them by time spent on daily movements. Blasé attitude is not only a mechanism for separating from some and creating a connection with others. It is the aspect of conscious acceptance that allows one to maintain a socially approved focus of attention in the performance of certain social roles.

Classification of Metal Additive Manufacturing Technologies
Authors: Booysen T. W. J. , Jamiru T. , Adegbola T. A.
Published: December 2023

Three-dimensional printing, widely known as additive manufacturing and metal additive manufacturing (MAM), forms part of manufacturing technology. It has gained attention in the last couple of years due to its high-efficiency manufacturing abilities. MAM can be classified either by different feedstocks, such as powder or wire, or different energy inputs (laser, electron beam and ultrasonication), which bond layers together during manufacturing. Understanding the different feedstock quality and different energy inputs of MAM processes will enable manufacturing companies to produce parts with the complex geometries and shapes that are now theoretically possible. Furthermore, this will minimise design limitations based on material selection, operating environment, and application. There are currently four MAM processes, namely: powder bed fusion, direct energy deposition, binder jetting printing, and sheet lamination. The process principles of these MAM processes are discussed, and the mechanical properties of materials fabricated with these processes were compared comprehensively.
