Identification of soil parameters in the calcu-lation of high-rise buildings on pile foundation
Authors: Pidlutskyi Vasyl , Behan Vasyl
Published: December 2022

The results of numerical modeling of the interaction of bored piles with the soil environment are presented. The process of identifying soil parameters according to static tests of piles was studied. The parameters of the soil, which have the greatest influence on the change in the graph of the dependence of the pile settlement on the load, are singled out.

The research process can be divided into the following stages: creation of a numerical model of the interaction of the pile with the volumetric soil array in the PC «LIRA-Sapr». The size of the array is 30x30x40 m, based on the research of scientists [1]. The pile is defined be a rod finite element (pile length 30 m, diameter 0.82 m). The array is defined by non linear finite elements with characteristics according to data from engineering and geological studies. The load is applied step by step (10 steps) with a maximum value of 600 ton-forces. 4 variants of the volumetric soil massif with different values of the modulus of elasticity were considered. In the first variant, the modulus of elasticity is unchanged, in the second it is increased by 2 times, in the third by 3 times and in the fourth variant by 4 times. The modulus of elasticity increased simultaneously in all elements of the soil massif. According to the calculation, it was established that when the elasticity modulus is increased by 4 times, the graph of the dependence of the settlement on the load is close to the graph of field tests. Further, the identification of the angle of internal friction was carried out, with an increased modulus of elasticity by 4 times. It was established that in the soil model with the angle of internal friction taken with a factor of 0.5, the settlement graph of the test pile is very close to the test graph. Therefore, for the calculation of the «base – foundation – above-ground structures» system, it is customary to increase the elasticity modulus by 4 times and take the angle of internal friction with a factor 0.5.

The calculation of the «base – foundation – above-ground structures» system for a high-rise building with identified soil parameters and with parameters that were before identification was performed. The stress- strain state of foundation structures for two variants of soil conditions was investigated. Redistribution of forces in foundation structures with both variants of soil parameters is given

Published: December 2022

This topic provides a comparison of the results, determined characteristics of clay soils in accordance with national standards and Eurocodes.

In the work, two variants of calculations using numerical modeling using the finite element method are planned: 1) using soil characteristics determined in laboratory conditions; 2) using soil characteristics determined by field methods.

When comparing the results of field and laboratory tests of clay soils, the reliability of their values was established in comparison with the most reliable standard methods.

The test was carried out in accordance with national standards in field conditions using probes of various diameters, live and inventory piles and stamps with an area of 5000 sq.cm and 600 sq.cm. The obtained data may differ in magnitude from the results obtained according to EU requirements. Therefore, there is a need to compare the values of characteristics according to national standards and Eurocodes.

Experimental studies were carried out at facilities in various cities of Ukraine. When choosing objects for comparison, attention was paid to the similarity of the geological origin of the soils. In the work, in part, the materials used by the department for determining the characteristics of soils in the past years were used. The article examines points from experimental objects of searches. Processed engineering and geological elements (IGE) of clayey soils that lie on the territory of the selected sites.

A generalizing table of the averaged physical and mechanical characteristics of clayey soils by research objects is given and the results of tests of clayey soils by laboratory and field methods are given, which made it possible to establish the following: the dependences of the change in the modulus of deformation for sandy and clayey soils are excellent. The results of soil tests with stamps and an inventory test pile (ITP-127) are given, as well as their comparison. The use of ITP-127 in practice as a reliable method for determining soil parameters is substantiated.
Methodical issues of evaluation of efficiency of construction enterprise
Authors: Hoiko A.
Published: December 2022

The article is devoted to the evaluation of the efficiency of production activities of a construction company. The article analyzes modern approaches to the essence of the concept of "efficiency of production activities", according to which it is proposed to understand the positive or negative results of the enterprise, characterized by a set of indicators that summarize the ratio of final results to costs. The article examines the theoretical and methodological approaches to assessing the economic efficiency of production in modern economic conditions, related to the definition of the main aggregate indicators for a comprehensive analysis of enterprises. Various forms of manifestation of economic efficiency that occur in the conditions of practical management are analyzed. Indicators assessing the efficiency of production and economic activities of the enterprise are considered. The essence of the used efficiency indicators is revealed, which differ depending on the purposes of the analysis and can be classified on four groups: indicators of an estimation of an economic condition, efficiency of industrial and economic activity, investment activity and social efficiency. The table with the generalizing indicators of efficiency of work of the enterprise is resulted and necessity of their use for an estimation of efficiency of work of the enterprise is proved. The two-level system of indicators of production efficiency, including the upper and lower level, is analyzed. The upper level includes performance indicators of the enterprise as a whole, reflecting the overall level of efficiency achieved at the enterprise. The lower level includes own indicators of the use of resource factors of production, which reveal the reasons that determine the level of efficiency of the enterprise and indicate the direction of managerial influence on its improvement. It is established that the efficiency of production activities of the enterprise is a complex characteristic, to determine which should use a set of different criteria for assessing its effectiveness.

Published: December 2022

Theoretical bases that reveal the concept of enterprise reorganization are substantiated, the causes and consequences of reorganization are determined, the models of calculating the probability of bankruptcy are investigated. The works of leading scientists in the field of research of enterprise rehabilitation are analyzed. The main financial and economic indicators are considered, with the help of which it is possible to predict in advance the financial condition of a construction enterprise and its rehabilitation capacity. Factors that reduce the quality of enterprise management have been identified. Harrington's model is considered as a method of determining the feasibility of rehabilitation investments in a construction company.

The main stages of rehabilitation are determined: organizational and target, formation of a system of indicators, organizational and planning, information, methodological support and restructuring. The peculiarities of each of the presented stages are described. At the organizational and target stage, goals are formed, subjects and objects of management are determined. The most important goals are: identification of the real state of the object; study of the composition and properties of the object, its comparison with known analogues or standards; detection of changes in the state of the object; identification of factors that caused changes in the state of the object. The chosen goals should reflect the specifics of the enterprise. Competitors, management, creditors, insurance bodies, tax authorities, mass media can act as carriers of risk for the problem enterprise.

The main subjects of remediation have been identified. Managers, creditors and owners can act as the basic subjects. However, direct management work is carried out by the economic services of the enterprise. If the internal analysts of enterprises do not have sufficient knowledge and skills, employees from ancillary industries can be involved.

Methods for identifying the probability of bankruptcy of the enterprise by analyzing financial statements and calculating financial indicators are considered. Models of foreign and Ukrainian scientists to calculate the probability of bankruptcy several years before its possible occurrence are analyzed.

Authors: Gritsenko О. , Kovalyova L. , Zapiechna Y.
Published: December 2022

This article is devoted to determining the estimated cost of project work with the help of aggregated indicators of housing reconstruction, identification of priority areas and the ability to economically justify the reconstruction of damaged housing stock of Ukraine.

Estimates of Ukraine state that the determination of the estimated cost of designing the construction of industrial and non-industrial facilities is the application of average percentages of the cost of design work to the calculation base.

The use of the method of analogous object is not reliable because the qualification of the author of estimates is limited, as a rule, by a small number of projects of such analogous objects in a particular project enterprise. The authors propose to determine the value of similar objects using the appropriate methodology, using it also to restore the damaged housing stock at the following stages of design: sketch design, feasibility study, project.

The method determines the limits of fluctuations of specific values of technical and economic indicators for homogeneous groups of housing reconstruction objects and regression equations which determine the standards of investor estimated value of objects.

To verify these statements, an example of determining the estimated value of the specific values of the consolidated estimate (12 chapters, estimated profit, administrative costs, risks, inflation, taxes and refunds) depending on the specific values of technical and economic indicators of the new object based on homogeneous regression equations On the basis of the given equations on homogeneous groups the search of objects with sizes of specific technical and economic indicators similar to sizes of similar indicators of researched object is conducted.

The appropriate method allows you to quantify the estimated value of the damaged housing stock and determine the effectiveness of the investment used.
Improvement of fire protection of fabrics with intumescent coatings
Authors: Tsapko Yu. , Sukhanevich M. , Bondarenko O. , Tsapko O.
Published: December 2022

Based on the analysis of literature sources, the article finds that today it is difficult to imagine the protection of human lives from fire without fire-retardant coatings on textiles. Precisely defined standards allow to determine the requirements for textile materials that have fire protection. It is hardly possible to prevent the inflammation of textiles due to their physical parameters (melting point, flash point). However, it is possible to extend the time for people to escape to start rescue operations by using appropriate fire protection systems or a combination of individual active ingredients. Reducing flammability and developing flammable and combustible materials is one of the main ways to prevent fires and solve the problem of expanding the scope of these materials. Treatment with flame retardants significantly affects the spread of flames, can significantly reduce the ability to smoke and heat. Therefore, research aimed at determining the patterns of fire protection paths used for the manufacture of textiles is relevant. One of such promising areas is the study of the formation of a layer of foam cone in the fire protection of the fabric with intumescent coatings. Experimental studies to determine the fire-hazardous properties of the tectile material revealed the ignition of the untreated sample, while for the fire-retardant – the process of ignition and spread of the flame did not occur. Inhibition of the process of ignition and spread of flame for such a sample is associated with the decomposition of flame retardants under the action of temperature with heat absorption and release of non-combustible gases (nitrogen, carbon dioxide), changing the direction of decomposition towards non-combustible gases and flame retardant coke. This indicates the possibility of transition of the textile material during the processing of the composition to materials that are flammable, do not spread the flame on the surface.
Influence of demographic factor on housing projects
Authors: Tytok V. , Emelianova O.
Published: December 2022

Demographic processes and phenomena occurring in Ukraine can only be guessed at, as the last census in Ukraine was conducted in 2001. According to the State Statistics Service, as of September 1, 2021, the population of Ukraine was 41,342.5 thousand people. According to UN forecasts, by 2050 the population of Ukraine may decrease to 35 million people. The solution of key socio-economic problems of the state depends on the demographic situation in Ukraine. This includes the development of vast territories, and greater involvement in the economic circulation of natural resources and preserving the territorial integrity and security of the country. Demographic management at the regional level is becoming increasingly important today. One of the tools to improve demographic factors is housing construction, namely the formation of a market for quality and affordable housing. But we must not forget about the feedback, the impact of socio-demographic factors on the choice of living conditions. Changing the age limit for people of retirement age is of great social and political importance. In parallel with changes in population, the country is urbanizing - an increase in the share of urban population, which affects its consumer demands and preferences.

We also began to spend more and more time with our family, so there was a need to allocate their own space for each family member: someone – a place for distance work, for children and students – a place for online learning, and do not forget about a safe place to relax or meet friends. Therefore, now one of the main priorities when choosing housing is comfort for the whole family. Also, the main characteristics when choosing housing should include the level of income (wealth) of the population.

The aim of the article is to identify the relationship between age and population type. The analysis of the material condition of the population is carried out. The influence of human needs on the choice of housing type is estimated. Evidence of the possible relationship between age and demographics has been selected, as well as some explanations for the rationality of these preferences.

The article uses research methods: analysis, synthesis, comparison, induction, deduction - to generalize and clarify the understanding of the demographic impact on housing choices by the population.

Published: December 2022

Currently, the reconstruction of the housing stock and industrial enterprises of Ukraine is of great importance, which is due to the state of emergency of many buildings in connection with the military actions of the aggressor. The term of operation of the means of production is due to the physical and moral wear of machines and mechanisms. The houses and buildings in which the means of production are located and function also age physically and morally, although this aging occurs more slowly than the means of production.Further postponement of restoration work may lead to the need for their demolition. The Verkhovna Rada Committee supported the bill on the comprehensive reconstruction of obsolete housing estates. This was reported by the Ministry of Development of Communities and Territories of Ukraine. The Committee on Environmental Policy and Nature Management of the Verkhovna Rada supported the bill on the comprehensive reconstruction of obsolete housing estates. measures during the overhaul.One of the main directions of solving this problem is reconstruction. Based on the analysis of literature articles, the article considers the issue of reconstruction of existing residential buildings in Europe in order to improve energy saving and energy efficiency. Examples of modernization of residential buildings over the past few years are considered. The tendencies of the process of reconstruction of the housing stock of European countries are analyzed and singled out. The peculiarities of restoration works are analyzed, and also the necessity of reconstruction of buildings, different periods of construction is substantiated. The accumulated experience of foreign implementation of projects in existing buildings allows us to say that the reconstruction leads to a reduction in energy consumption, emissions, increased reliability and improved appearance.

The system of indicators that currently assess the level of sustainability of the enterprise is described; a toolkit that allows you to use this system of indicators throughout the entire existence of the enterprise, taking into account the influence of multidirectional uncertainty factors that differ in the degree of influence, arising in the conditions of digitalization of the economy; the ability to determine the scenarios of the company's development depending on the degree of influence of uncertainty factors on its functioning; the ability to assess the effectiveness of the proposed management decisions to counteract these factors. The methodology of digitization of the administration of the activities of the construction enterprise - a stakeholder of construction projects - has been introduced and substantiated. The development of the enterprise, the leveling of the impact of actual and potential threats to the macro-environment through the rational use of all the benefits of the high stage of the life cycle have been studied. On the basis of the analysis of theoretical sources and the results of statistical analysis, a system of factors of scenarios for managing the economic potential of the enterprise with the qualitative characteristic of "proactivity" was determined: return on investment, the share of innovative types of products in the total number of products of the enterprise, the rate of renewal of fixed assets, profitability of production, profitability of production, return on capital , the coefficient of sustainability of financing. The development of adaptability, which is expedient at the stage of recession, is analyzed and involves the use of the company's capabilities to implement active rehabilitation measures in order to prevent stagnant processes and ensure a return to the stage of progression and prosperity in the shortest possible time. The following factors were determined for the scenarios of this group: quick liquidity coefficient, autonomy coefficient, maneuverability coefficient of working capital, suitability coefficient of the company's fixed assets, labor productivity, fund profitability.

Authors: Chebanov L. , Kiyanovskiy A. , Chebanov T. , Lyashenko I.
Published: December 2022

The main types of modern greenhouses with a fence made of film (in one layer and double with an air layer) and polycarbonate are considered. Different methods of growing plants in natural and artificial substrates on trays, supports, and special tables are shown.

The elements of galvanized constructions of complete factory readiness differ in height, span, pitch of columns, number and position of elm blocks. The structural features of such buildings and structures make it possible to create many volume-planning solutions for the implementation of various agronomic technologies when growing vegetables and flowers, as well as meeting the needs of production and sanitary and household needs of workers.

Engineering and technological systems provide a comfortable micro-climate for plants at different times of the year. Passive ventilation is used (single and double butterfly type in the roof, in the side and end walls), as well as active with the possibility of air humidification

The concept of energy saving allows you to store (accumulate) heat in the tanks (systems) of boiler houses, including during operation of boiler houses in the summer to obtain carbon dioxide. In greenhouses, pipes are arranged in the underground space to preserve the energy of warm air in winter and cool the air in summer. Special methods of cleaning drainage drains allow you to save and reuse nutrients during drip irrigation of various plants.

The technology of building greenhouses involves the execution of works with sets of specialized machines, as well as universal machines with a set of interchangeable working bodies. For the mechanization of individual processes, special machines and mechanisms have been developed for welding of pipes, installation of foundations and elements of enclosing structures, etc.
Problems of integration of the opportunities of modern digital technologies for creating building information models (BIM) with building process information models (BPIM)
Authors: Chertkov O.
Published: December 2022

Recently, there has been a significant increase in the flow of publications, various information events and speeches at conferences related to the problems of development of information modeling technologies in construction (hereinafter - TIMB), especially - their definition (TIMB), place in the implementation of investment and construction projects (IBP). Despite the fact that the authors, at first glance, announce a wide range of topics, most of the works directly or indirectly consider the problems of creating and developing project documentation, based on the requirements and capabilities of modern project platforms. However, research data does not cover many practical issues related to the implementation of IMB technologies in the activities of organizations that conclude and execute subcontracts, as well as implement IBS, that is, contractors.

In this context, three aspects:

a) specialists of the construction industry immersed themselves in the subject area, i.e. - a significant number of participants in the construction industry recognized the effectiveness of TIMB, without which further development of the country's investment and construction sector at a new qualitative level is impossible;

b) but not everyone has figured it out yet, because the stereotype of the transition from pencil design to automated, computer-aided design (CAD) dominates, and the understanding of design processes based on parametric modeling, which allows you to reduce work time, avoid unnecessary operations, and improve project quality, is slow;

c) at this stage, there is practically no connection between the almost unlimited possibilities provided by modern 3D design (modeling) platforms and the release of contractual documentation for the contract (design, estimate, tender, tender offers, and others).

Therefore, the problem of integrating the possibilities of creating an IMB of future projects with the information necessary to ensure the processes of construction sites, bypassing the office routine, in terms of logistics and when displaying the necessary information about the implementation of the UPS at all stages of its life cycle and for each of its (UPS) participants, needs more attention, which generally emphasizes the relevance and timeliness of the issue raised.
Prefabricated structures of buildings from steel thin-wall cold formed profiles Cocoon "Transformer"
Authors: Khokhrіakova D.O. , Shamrina H.V.
Published: December 2022

Cocoon System AG's light steel thin-walled structures have proven their worth in numerous superstructures, extensions, exterior wall and ceiling systems, as well as complex projects by internationally renowned architects. As part of the implementation and development of lightweight construction methods, this company has developed the Cocoon "Transformer" system, represented by prefabricated wall and floor structures with varying degrees of completeness and enlargement, registered as ETA - 11/0105. The Cocoon "Transformer" system is a frame-sheathing self-supporting or load-bearing, external or internal structure, the components of which are steel thin-walled cold-formed profiles, plate materials (cladding), insulating materials and fasteners. ETA-11/0105 suggests an optimization of this structural system. The European project ELISSA was created to improve the construction of walls, floors, roofs and volumetric modules of the Cocoon "Transformer" system with improved thermal, acoustic, vibration / seismic and fire resistance characteristics, as well as to develop industrially safe methods for their application. The use of high-performance airgel thermal insulation strips in this project minimized the effect of thermal bridging in the exterior wall structure and brought the heat transfer coefficient closer to the requirements of a passive house. The new prefabricated lightweight elements ELISSA, which demonstrate a high level of energy efficiency, provide the possibility of using insulated vacuum panels (VIP) with increased strength. The increased strength of Super Insulated VIP Panels is due to the use of foils with better endurance and also encapsulated in polyurethane. However, the version of the ELISSA system using VIP panels significantly increases the cost of the wall structure, which may hinder its widespread use in Ukraine. The creation of standard economic solutions with a sufficient level of energy efficiency according to the Cocoon "Transformer" construction concept will allow, to a certain extent, to reduce the costs of restoring the housing stock of Ukraine, damaged as a result of hostilities, and solve the problem of rapid new construction to replace completely destroyed housing.
Nonlinearity and Illfoundedness in the Hierarchy of Large Cardinal Consistency Strength
Authors: Hamkins Joel David
Published: December 2022

Many set theorists point to the linearity phenomenon in the hierarchy of consistency strength, by which natural theories tend to be linearly ordered and indeed well ordered by consistency strength. Why should it be linear? In this paper I present counterexamples, natural instances of nonlinearity and illfoundedness in the hierarchy of large cardinal consistency strength, as natural or as nearly natural as I can make them. I present diverse cautious enumerations of ZFC and large cardinal set theories, which exhibit incomparability and illfoundedness in consistency strength, and yet, I argue, are natural. I consider the philosophical role played by “natural” in the linearity phenomenon, arguing ultimately that we should abandon empty naturality talk and aim instead to make precise the mathematical and logical features we had found desirable.

La inclusión de los Objetivos del Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS) en las instituciones es el nuevo desafío que enfrentan las organizaciones a nivel mundial. La importancia de los ODS para una empresa se ve reflejado por los impactos que genera la empresa cuando se compromete con ellos: de esta manera la empresa puede identificar los impactos sociales, económicos y medioambientales. La aplicación de los ODS en las empresas trae aparejado su buena imagen corporativa, su buena reputación y su mejora en la relación con sus stakeholders. La provincia de San Juan, Argentina; ha iniciado su camino con la sostenibilidad, y se ha comprometido con los ODS comenzando a aplicarlo en sus políticas de gobierno. Este compromiso es aún incipiente en las empresas de la provincia, por lo que la presente investigación tiene como objetivo medir el compromiso con la sostenibilidad de las empresas mineras de la provincia de San Juan para el año 2022. La metodología elegida es cualitativa; teoría fundamentada por medio del uso de un software (Gibbs, 2007). Los hallazgos de lo estudiado es que las empresas mineras de la provincia de San Juan están comenzando a incluir los ODS, siendo sus niveles de comunicación de la sostenibilidad muy escasos, aspecto que perjudica su licencia social para operar. Sin embargo, esto supone una oportunidad para las empresas mineras de la provincia.

Authors: Kosteniov Oleksandr
Published: December 2022

The purpose of the work is to analyse the prepared and unprepared techniques of improvisation in foreign jazz instrumental music of the second half of the XX century, as well as to determine the trends and features of their development. The research methodology involves the use of historical, analytical, and comparative methods, which allows revealing the peculiarities of the development of creative techniques in jazz instrumental music of the stated period. The scientific novelty of the work lies in the fact that prepared and unprepared improvisation techniques in foreign jazz instrumental music of the second half of the XX century are investigated for the first time, the analysis of which makes it possible to find out how these techniques and jazz instrumental music of the specified period developed as a whole. Conclusions. In the second half of the ХХ century, prepared and unprepared improvisations developed dynamically. Prepared improvisation is a fairly common creative technique in jazz music, which has its roots in academic music. The main principle of prepared improvisation is that it is planned in advance by the performer. It becomes widespread in jazz in the first half of the ХХ century during the swing era, during the heyday of big jazz orchestras and big bands. In the second half of the ХХ century the prepared improvisation technique develops freely, interacts with other improvisation techniques (collective, solo, choral, and modal). However, at the same time, jazz music has been associated precisely with unprepared improvisation since its inception. This technique does not require prior preparation, the birth of music occurs directly at the moment of making music. If prepared improvisation can be positioned as a phenomenon of limited improvisation, then unprepared improvisation gives complete creative freedom to the musician. In addition, it should be noted that the principles of unprepared improvisation are quite close, similar and related to the techniques of free and spontaneous improvisation. To a large extent, these techniques are used in avant-garde trends and free jazz. In the development of unprepared improvisation in jazz instrumental music of the second half of the ХХ century it is difficult to single out specific periods that are marked by certain characteristic and innovative tendencies of formation.

Key words: prepared improvisation, unprepared improvisation, creative and performance techniques, jazz instrumental music.

Published: December 2022

The purpose of the article is to investigate the characteristics of the 12-bar blues within the jazz music. The research methodology is based on the use of methods of analysis (for musicological analysis of jazz standards), comparison (for comparative analysis of the characteristics of blues formation and features of jazz music formation) and generalisation (to formulate research conclusions). The scientific novelty of the study is in highlighting the problem of the relationship between the formative principles of blues and jazz music. Conclusions. The musical form «12-bar blues in jazz music», is an unprecedented quintessence of the form-forming features of blues and jazz music. However, despite all the changes that the standard form “12-bar blues” has undergone in jazz music, in all its forms and with the introduction of any elements, it remains a phenomenon of blues formation in jazz music and requires the use of separate terminology for its definition. Thus, we are faced with the full depth of the above musical form, which has the potential for an infinite number of transformations and the introduction of innovative features, the infinite potential of which, in turn, is inherent in jazz music.

Key words:jazz music, blues, musical form, 12-bar blues, jazz standard, 12-bar blues in jazz music, 12-bar minor blues, modern 12-bar blues.

The research methodology consists in applying the methods of analysis and synthesis, systematisation of facts, comparison, and generalisation of the research results. The system-historical method made it possible to consider the formation of Italian court culture in the Renaissance. The comparative method helped to reveal the similarities between court musical and theatrical performances in the above-mentioned countries. Conclusions. The attachment of the court culture of England, in general, and the genre of the English court mask, in particular, to the culture of the educated aristocracy of Italy, is verified by the cultural inclusion in the traditions of Italian carnival values and cult Italian dances. During the reign of the Stuart kings, the Italian carnival was well-known in England along with other European court entertainments. Italian dances, costumes, and scenery were used in court musical and theatrical performances in England. Italian choreographers and musicians were welcome guests at the Royal Palace of Whitehall, which contributed to the interaction and interpenetration of continental court culture with the culture of England. However, despite certain parallels between the court musical-theatrical entertainments of England and Italy, their difference was carried out due to the orientation of the performances to a narrow and, accordingly, wider circle of aristocratic participants.

The purpose of the paper is to definite the features of the military view of the current stage of the Russian-Ukrainian war, as one of the part of its contemporary «multiplex» vision. The research methodology combines quantitative (content analysis, statistical calculations) and qualitative (structural semiotic-semantic analysis) methods with culturological interpretation of the outcomes. Moreover, some personal observations of the authors on social platforms in Ukraine have been used. The scientific novelty consists in the theoretical reconstruction of the visual image of «war through the eyes of the military», which is markedly different from every day and journalistic assumptions about it. Conclusions. As a result of a quantitative content-analysis of the photocontent of the official Facebook-page of the Kholodny Yar 93rd separate mechanised brigade, the most popular among the 23 infantry brigades of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the authors came to the conclusion that it forms a special point of view – «war through the eyes of the military». Paradoxically, the war does not look like a chain of combat operations with the massive use of tanks, artillery, and other weapons, the result of which is the destruction of the maximum number of enemies. It appears as a special type of human existence. This was the result of the intersection of the «peaceful» beliefs of the Operator, the professional media people who generated this content, and the real combat environment in which the shooting took place. The specified vision performs a motivational function for the active pro-Ukrainian community, which is the main audience of this page. Recognition of the peculiarities of other visions of the Russian-Ukrainian war current phase, for example, a purely journalistic one, can become a relevant direction of further research, an important component of the scientific formalisation of the modern view of it.
