Authors: Melillo Ramos Ana Flávia
Published: June 2022

A pandemia do coronavírus vem alterando significativamente nossas vidas e, em especial a vida dos nossos jovens. Acreditamos que os reflexos socioeconômicos, pedagógicos e emocionais na vida dos estudantes dos 3º anos dos cursos integrados afetarão diretamente o contexto educacional e não se sabe ainda em que proporção. Dessa forma, objetiva-se compreender quais são esses impactos na tentativa de possibilitar à equipe multidisciplinar, formada por assistente social, pedagoga e psicóloga, a busca por estratégias para um atendimento mais eficaz e cuidadoso, capaz de minimizar os conflitos colocados, visando a qualidade de vida e a permanência destes no espaço escolar. Nesta pesquisa, optou-se por dialogar com os supostos teóricos de educadores brasileiros que são referência para refletir sobre o contexto da EPT - Educação Profissional e Tecnológica. Faremos uma abordagem quali-quantitativa.  As técnicas utilizadas serão pesquisa bibliográfica, a pesquisa documental e estudo de caso. Os instrumentos utilizados serão formulários online e entrevistas semiestruturadas. Os resultados parciais corroboram com a hipótese de que a vida em sociedade apresentou alterações expressivas, necessitando assim, de uma articulação de profissionais especializados e de políticas públicas efetivas que foquem principalmente nos adolescentes, para garantir uma vida escolar com dignidade.

Authors: Valfisia da Silva Francisca , Chagas da Silva Francisco das
Published: June 2022

Este artigo tem como objetivo principal fazer algumas reflexões sobre a educação em tempos de pandemia. A educação em nosso país sempre foi um ato de bravura, resistência e desafios. A equidade esteve distante, as diferenças e adversidades enormes e constantes. Nem todos tem acesso à educação de forma igualitária, seja por um motivo ou por outro. As oportunidades são diferentes e pandemia veio acirrar essas desigualdades e segregar ainda mais. A Covid-19 fechou as portas físicas das escolas, mas o processo de ensino continuou, em casa, de forma remota. A aprendizagem teve déficit, nem todos os alunos dispunham dos recursos necessários para essa nova forma de ensino: computador, celular ou tablet com acesso à internet. As aulas presenciais foram repentinamente substituídas pela modalidade de ensino à distância (EAD), forçando professores e alunos a um aprendizado apressado de novas tecnologias da Informação e comunicação (TICs). Diante desse contexto, ações de correção para essa defasagem são imprescindíveis para que a educação se insira na perspectiva da inclusão, no retorno ao processo de evolução, crescimento e os estudantes possam consolidar seus conhecimentos e ter acesso a uma educação eficaz, emancipadora, de qualidade, que gere possibilidade de crescimento e dignidade da pessoa humana.
POLÍTICA NACIONAL DE EDUCAÇÃO AMBIENTAL: O CONTEXTO DE INFLUÊNCIAS NO PROCESSO DE CONSTRUÇÃO
Authors: Ataides Smiljanic Kátya Bonfim
Published: June 2022

Este trabalho realizou uma revisão bibliográfica e documental com o objetivo de analisar os elementos que influenciaram no processo de construção da Política Nacional de Educação Ambiental – PNEA e os seus reflexos para o desenvolvimento da EA formal no Brasil. A Política Nacional de Educação Ambiental – PNEA surge de uma condição de consenso absoluto. Foi elaborada pelo Estado para a sociedade, sob influência das grandes conferências mundiais e dos movimentos de globalização e mundialização. A sua aprovação precedeu a estruturação da organização social dos educadores ambientais e do campo político ideológico, não havendo, portanto, as condições sociais e acadêmicas para o debate com a sociedade. De qualquer forma, a lei não afetou os interesses econômicos que poderiam oferecer resistência. Relacionou atribuições e responsabilidades, porém não estabeleceu obrigações, regras ou sanções punitivas para o não cumprimento e a falta de previsão orçamentária comprometeu a autonomia política e financeira. É evidente a presença da agenda do desenvolvimento sustentável e a facilitação do acesso da iniciativa privada nas escolas através de parcerias, introduzindo estratégias de produtividade e gestão empresarial com diretrizes e metas a serem cumpridas, buscando atender as necessidades do capital e do mercado de trabalho.

Indicators to monitor the state of modernization of the regional social services provision system under decentralization
Authors: Butko Mykola P. , Koval Kristina P.
Published: June 2022

Ukraine’s strategic course for integration into the European community requires efficient management decisions at both the national and regional levels, the use of existing economic capacity, and gaining competitive advantages in all public development domains. Accordingly, the importance of the social component is constantly growing due to the fact that the existence of the state is closely linked to the extent to which it meets the needs of the general population. Increasingly, governments of different countries face the need to modernize social models in order to achieve reasonable, sustainable, and comprehensive development of the state as a whole and each of its regions individually. The article forms a system of indicators that characterize the level of modernization of social services and impact the processes of sustainable development. In the course of the research conducted across the regions of Ukraine, the basic indicators influencing the process of providing social services were summarized, and the leading regions and those that need special attention were identified. In addition, the need for constant monitoring of the components of the social services modernization level is justified. The efficiency of the state regional policy aimed at solving social problems and ensuring the achievement of appropriate living standards, etc. depends on comprehensive consideration of the systemic action of a set of social factors that determine it, and the use of a complete and representative system of indicators to assess this area at the level of economic development. The system of indicators to assess the real state of social services will help to improve resource management to modernize funding principles, clearly define target groups in this domain, and outline the most priority areas of its development, progressive changes in the proportion of labor, and inclusive spatial development of productive forces of Ukraine.
Economic instability vs economic growth of territories: financial determinants and behavioral effects
Authors: Storonyanska Iryna Z. , Benovska Liliya Ya.
Published: June 2022

The functioning of the country’s economy during the coronavirus crisis requires in-depth study of financial determinants of impact on socio-economic development of regions, including: price stability, attracting investment and improving the business climate, lending and capital investment, transparency of budget administration, sustainability of public finances. The purpose of the study aims to evaluate the trends and features of economic development of Ukrainian regions in terms of financial determinants of sustainable growth of regions, taking into account behavioral effects. The following methods were used for the study: abstract-logical, comparative analysis, graphical visualization, statistical. Analysis of the financial determinants of regional development in the context of the coronavirus crisis has identified the following negative tendencies: significant reduction of capital investments in the regional economy, reduction of the share of new investment projects; deterioration of the business climate and reduction of lending to businesses; non-fulfilled plans of the main budget-forming indicators of local budgets (PIT, local taxes) was reflected in the volume of expenditures from local budgets, including investment; reduction of transfers to local budgets from the state had a negative impact on the financing of regional development programs; the outflow of foreign capital occurred not only due to the deteriorating business climate in the country, but also due to the pervasive nature of the COVID-19 pandemic and psychological and emotional factors influencing investor behavior in conditions of uncertainty about the nature and duration of the coronary crisis. The fact that, the impact of the COVID-19 crisis is territorially differentiated and its various risks are largely based on economic and spatial features of regional development, needs to be taken into account. As revealed, the most vulnerable are the regions that border territorially with EU countries and whose residents are focused on employment abroad; regions with the lowest indicators of socio-economic development and regions that are characterized by a high level of concentration of economic activity, in particular cities. Further research is focused on the introduction of incentive tools to influence the current condition of regional economic systems, taking into account the behavior of economic entities.
Theoretical and methodological aspects of forming a model of smart specialization of the regions of Ukraine
Authors: Voznyak Halyna V.
Published: June 2022

Given that Ukraine has set a course to build a European model of strategic planning for regional development, it is high time to adopt a new regional development policy, which would take into account the specialization of the region and be multilevel, innovation-oriented, and aimed at strengthening the competitive advantages of regions. The purpose of the article is to substantiate the theoretical and methodological principles of implementation of the smart specialization model in the domestic practice of regional development strategy development. The article considers the theoretical and methodological aspects of a regional development strategy based on smart specialization. The essence features and expediency of the introduction of reasonable specialization at the regional level are emphasized. The dual nature of its functioning is revealed, namely: as a tool of regional development policy and as a concept (technology) of determining priorities for policy development to maximize the innovation capacity of the region. The principles of regional strategies development based on smart specialization are given. The paper provides a vision of developing a regional strategy based on smart specialization, which provides a logical sequence of stages, with a clear definition of tasks, a list of scientific methods, methodological approaches and principles. The ambiguity of the concept of smart specialization is emphasized and the existence of several methodological obstacles to the implementation of smart strategies is substantiated, namely, it is not obvious whether regions with different levels of economic development will benefit equally from its implementation. The paper proves that despite several problems, the solution of which lies in finding a balance of interests in the interaction of government, business, academia, and society, the introduction of smart specialization in the domestic practice of regional development strategy development has no alternatives.

Published: June 2022

The paper characterizes the scientific capacity of Ukrainian regions across the number of organizations involved in R&D, number of employed in R&D, and R&D expenditures. The trends towards the reduction of the number of R&D organizations in Ukraine and the number of employed in R&D are detected. Six scientific centers with the strongest development capacity are determined – Kyiv and Harkivska, Dnipropetrovska, Lvivska, Zaporizka, and Odeska oblasts. The development of scientific capacity in Ukraine and the EU is compared across the parameters of gross R&D expenditures per capita, number of researchers per 1000 employed, gross expenditures per 1 employed in the industry, and gross expenditures per a researcher. The structure of R&D expenditures across the sources of funding is analyzed across Ukrainian regions and compared to EU and OECD countries. The role of research infrastructures in the EU is examined and the situation with their development in Ukraine is described. The parameters of high- and above average technology output, export of high- and above average technology products, knowledge-intensive services, and volume of sold innovative products in Ukraine are analyzed. The measures to be taken to achieve efficient implementation of scientific capacity and economic development of the country and its regions based on innovative development model are suggested. They include integration of the demand for scientific and technological research into the system of regional strategizing, scientific and technological maintenance of regional smart-specialization strategies with attraction of specialists, making R&D the integral component of accomplishment of sectoral, regional, and local innovative programs, development of modern innovative infrastructure accompanied by growing demand for R&D, and integration of the national R&D system with the global research area, etc.

Published: June 2022

The Drilling of crude oil to bring it up to the subsurface of the earth cannot be accomplished without the use of drilling fluids. Used oil-based drilling fluid was introduced to Clarias gariepinus and Allium cepa in the determination of its toxic and genotoxic characteristics. This study made use of spent oil- based drilling fluid/ mud which was gotten from oando gas plant, in sterilized plastic containers. Test subjects were acclimatized and stored respectively which lasted for 14days.After both acclimatization and storage of test subjects, test solutions were prepared in different concentrations after a range finding test was conducted. At the end of 96h, LC50 of 71.589 %, 96.052 %, 96.052 % and 59.508 % were obtained at 24hr, 48hr, 72hr and 96hr respectively. It was observed that the higher the concentration the higher the mortality as well as the EC50 which showed relationships between root tip-growth inhibitions and increase in toxicant concentration. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) contents such as Naphthalene, Acenaphthylene, Acenaphthene, Fluorene, Phenathrene, Anthracene, Fluoranthene, Benzo (K), Pyrene, Benz (a) anthracene, Chrysene, Benzo (b) fluoranthene, Benzo (k) fluoranthene, Benzo (a) pyrene, Indeno (1,2,3-cd) pyrene, Dibenz (a,h), anthracene and Benzo (g,h,i) perylene of oil based drilling mud was analysed using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer. These parameters may be responsible for the toxic effects on fish and onion root tips. Hence, the disposal of drill fluids after crude oil recovery should be well monitored so as to ensure the fulfilment of the necessary regulatory standards set up by regulatory bodies.

The present study Biostratigraphic (foraminiferal and palynological), paleoenvironment and paleoecological evaluations are aimed at interpreting the lithology, age, paleoenvironmental as well as the paleoecological condition of the deposited sediments newly exposed along Ikot Okpara Otopy, Southeastern Nigeria. Lithological descriptions of the samples reveal that this section is predominantly shale. This shale is dark grey to light brown, fossiliferous with minor occurrence of silts and sandstones. Foraminiferal analysis reveals a Paleocene interval within the Nkporo Formation for the first time. The sediments have low to moderate number of taxa with 96% benthic and 4% planktics, while a total of 196 microflora were recovered and identified. The microfloral species contain 60% of continental plants with 40% of marine counterparts. Key foraminiferal taxa used in this study include Bolivina afra, Bolivina explicata, Globigerina fringe and Haplophragmoides talokaense, while their microfloral counterparts encountered within the section include Cingulatisporites ornatus, Auriculidites reticulates Ephedripites ambonoides, Retidiporites magdalenensis, Synolocolporites marginatus, Constructipollenites ineffectus, Foveotriletes margaritae, Buttinia andreevi, Proxapertites operculatus, Zlivisporis blanensis and Paleocystodinium sp. These assemblages (Foraminiferal and Palynological) depict the deposition of these sediments during the Maastrichtian Paleocene age. The combination of lithologic and biostratigraphic data reveal paleoenvironment interpretation of the study section to range from marginal - shallow to Middle neritic paleo-water depths, while the paleoecological studies depicts a fluctuation in the salinity from brackish to marine settings deposited within a tropical to subtropical warm and humid climate.

Published: June 2022

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder that causes glucose regulation in the blood. Blood sugar anomalies can be defined as unwanted readings either due to normal causes or reasons unknown to the patient. Machine learning applications have been widely introduced in diabetes research and blood sugar anomaly detection. However, modeling options and strategies for classification in diabetes mellitus are needed. This study aims to classify the data as diabetic or non-diabetic and improve classification accuracy. Classification accuracy is improved by using many of the data sets as training data and test data. Classification accuracy is improved by using multiple of the data set as data. In the test, the C4.5 and RF hybrid methods, as well as the MLP and Net Bayes hybrid classification methods were developed for the classification of diabetes. In the case of C4.5 + RF it provides an accuracy of 79.31% which is higher than the individual models. Similarly, MLP + Net Bayes, provides an 81.89% higher accuracy than the individual models. In the second case the 85-15% ensemble model training and test partitions have an important role for the classification of diabetes data. The proposed MLP + Net Bayes provides 81.89% accuracy as a robust model for data classification. So that the proposed model achieves the highest accuracy of 81.89% with 6 features and reaches the highest sensitivity of 64.10% and the highest specificity of 90.90%.
SUBSTANTIATION OF THE RECOMMENDATION ON IMPROVEMENT OF TACTICS OF COMBAT APPLICATION OF ROCKET BOATS TAKING INTO ACCOUNT HISTORICAL EXPERIENCE
Authors: Khapov A. , Ovchar I.
Published: June 2022

The article shows the urgency of using the missiles by corvettes of the Ukrainian Navy for naval purposes in modern conditions. The fighting and local military conflicts at sea of the last century are analyzed, where showed that ships with missile weapons are majorly important in order to achieve a victory over the enemy.
Today, Ukraine and its Armed Forces are at the stage of undeclared war with the Russian Federation. Currently, the combat zone is Donbass, and the zones of increased tension are the Azov and Black Seas. Analysis of the peculiarities of a possible theater of operations, showing the relatively low defense capability of Ukraine to counter the threat from the sea and the important economic importance of the Black and Azov Seas for Ukraine, prove that in this direction, the aggressor can achieve the greatest strategic success. Analysis of recent events in the Black Sea, namely: the incident in the Kerch Bay, shelling of Ukrainian warships and aircrafts, constant provocative actions of the aggressor prove that the Black Sea is likely to become a new theater of operations.
Combat actions on the high seas are virtually ruled out, as they have no tactical prospects. The main actions of our forces will be aimed at defending the territorial sea and the lines of our own coast. The Navy’s defense zone is likely to be a coastal strip up to 20 nautical miles wide, as well as the area around Zmiyny Island. In the north-western part of the Black Sea, coast of Ukraine is characterized by the presence of a large number of shallow estuaries, bays, etc., closed by queues, sandy shoals, areas unsuitable for navigation (Odesa, Dniester banks, Dnieper and Dniester estuaries, Tendriv, Kizhanka bays, the mouth of the Dunay and others). Such conditions favor the actions of small corvettes using «ambush» tactics.
Therefore, the main tactical way of Ukrainian Navy corvettes action in the event of an armed conflict at sea may be the use of naval missile armament from «ambush», under aircrafts cover of Ukraine Air Forces with the usage of external sources of information on enemy location.
Keywords: tactics, missile boat, naval target, missile weapon, sea battle, missile strike, combat application, combat effectiveness, missile weapon, anti-ship cruise missile.

THE CONCEPT OF SAFE STORAGE OF ROCKETS AND AMMUNITION
Authors: Petrushenko M. , Budur O. , Bordian P. , Bordian V.
Published: June 2022

Events of recent years, namely explosions at arsenals in Balakleya, Kharkiv region, Kalinovka, Vinnytsia region, field depots near Svatove, Luhansk region, p. Maloyanisol, Donetsk region, village StarayaMykolayivka, Donetsk region, point to an imperfect system of ammunition storage organization, including an imperfect method of determining safe distances between ammunition storage places, which leads to significant material and human losses. Therefore, the survivability of missile and ammunition storage facilities requires, first of all, a review of issues related to the safe distances between missile and ammunition storage sites, and new ways of protecting ammunition storage sites.
The main task of arsenals, bases and warehouses for missiles and ammunition of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine is to ensure reliable storage and a high level of technical condition of stored missiles and ammunition, as well as their constant readiness to perform work at any time of day and under any circumstances. Theactivitiesofarsenals, bases and warehouses are always associated with increased risk, as these facilities are designed to store ammunition containing gunpowder and explosives. Closely related to the concept of security is the concept of survivability of arsenals, bases and ammunition depots – that is, their ability to perform their functions in a volume not lower than a given level for a certainperiodoftimeinemergencyconditions.
The allowable risk depends on many factors, some of which are objective, such as the amount of explosive, its type, packaging of explosives and devices, their placement in storage or on sites (platforms, under canopies), distance, nature of the terrain and its contours etc. Other factors are more subjective – how receptive are the expected consequences of an explosive event or accident? For example, how many deaths, how many serious injuries, how many buildings were destroyed or damaged, how many destroyed munitions and other losses are allowed? Therefore, it is clearly important to know well the nature of the main danger, namely an explosion or fire, as well as the expected development of the accident: instantaneous, progressive, sudden, and so on. Standards have been developed for decades by explosives safety experts. Safe distances have been developed on the basis of analyzes and tests of a large number of explosives and data obtained from past emergencies. Potential explosion sites are sites such as buildings, stacks and vehicles (trucks, trailers and railway cars) that pose an obvious risk to personnel and property of arsenals, bases and warehouses. Such sites are located at carefully calculated distances from each other and from other buildings and institutions to ensure minimal risk to life and property (including ammunition).

PERFECTION OF METHODOLOGY OF ESTIMATION OF EFFICIENCY OF SUBSYSTEM OF EVACUATION OF MATERIAL FACILITIES IN THE SEPARATE MECHANIZED BRIGADE DURING CONDUCT OF BATTLE ACTIONS
Authors: Levchenko I. , Kindrat V.
Published: June 2022

The article proposes an improved methodology for assessing the effectiveness of the material evacuation subsystem in a separate mechanized brigade, which can be used to assess the effectiveness of the rear power system of a separate mechanized brigade during combat operations. The efficiency of completing tasks related to the evacuation of material assets is mainly influenced by the degree of staffing of automobile units and the condition of vehicles, which is indicated by the coefficient of technical readiness. Also taken into account is the degree of use of carrying capacity and number of flights of vehicles, physical and geographical conditions of the combat area. All this can significantly affect the daily mileage of vehicles and the fulfillment of tasks related to the evacuation of material assets. An improved methodology is provided for assessing the effectiveness of the material supply subsystem in a separate mechanized brigade, which can be used to evaluate the effectiveness of the rear support system of a separate mechanized brigade during combat operations.
During the study of the process of rear support of troops, an important theoretical and practical task is to evaluate the effectiveness of the material resources evacuation subsystem in a separate mechanized brigade during combat operations. Certain approaches to solving this problem have been developed in a number of source. However, the experience of the Anti-Terrorist operation in the territory of Donetsk and Lugansk regions and other armed conflicts of recent decades indicates the need to improve the methodology for assessing the effectiveness of the subsystem of transporting of the material resources, which would take into account changes in the requirements for the subsystem of evacuating of the material resources to the separate mechanized brigade, and increase the efficiency of the logistics support system as a whole.
Keywords: separate mechanized brigade, rear support, system efficiency, material resources evacuation, vehicles, automobile units, evacuation of material resources.

An analysis of military conflicts indicates a sharp increase in maneuvering capabilities, the number of armored targets and anti-weapon capabilities. This makes us look for the possibility of increasing the effectiveness of fire weapons. The existing means of destruction in the Armed Forces of Ukraine require a significant expenditure of ammunition and the use of a large number of fire weapons, for example, to suppress a platoon stronghold, which, as a rule, will include 3-4 infantry fighting vehicles and 1 tank must involve at least artillery division of 152 mm howitzers, with a consumption of 1,440 high-explosive fragmentation shells. In addition, in the course of the gradual transition of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to the standards of NATO member countries, bringing artillery caliber standards to these standards, the development (modernization) of artillery systems, there is a need to revise combat kits, which will be used to equip promising artillery systems (complexes). When substantiating the need for the formation of new combat kits for artillery systems that are being developed (modernized), their military-economic effectiveness is assessed.
In connection with the foregoing, there is a need to develop a scientific and methodological apparatus, which will assess the feasibility of making changes to the combat kits of artillery systems.
The article discusses a universal methodology for assessing the military-economic effectiveness of combat systems of promising artillery systems that are being developed (modernized). The developed methodology of military-economic evaluation of the effectiveness of combat kits allows you to take into account the economic component in the development (modernization) of artillery systems (complexes).

A MODEL OF A COMBAT TRACKED VEHICLE SIMULATOR AS AN ELEMENT OF AN INTELLIGENT TRAINING SYSTEM
Authors: Pesterev M.
Published: June 2022

The article analyzes the ergatic system «man-machine-environment» in order to build a model of a combat tracked vehicle simulator as an element of the system «crew-combat tracked vehicle-combat situation-environment». A description of a simulated combat tracked vehicle is made as an object of control of the operator of a combat tracked vehicle simulator, as a subject of control with the definition of a person’s role in this system. In the course of the study, it was determined that the combat tracked vehicle simulator should be considered as a system with a complex internal structure. It is advisable to divide this system into two subsystems: the first subsystem is dynamic, this subsystem includes the dynamic platform of the simulator; the second subsystem is informational, in this subsystem the level of conformity of the conceptual model of machine control to the expected control result and the degree of achievement of the control goal is assessed. It should be noted that the dynamic and information subsystems are in constant close interaction with each other and determine the hierarchical structure of the simulator. The very same hierarchical structure of the simulator consists of two levels: dynamic and information-guiding.
The directions of further research have been determined, which will ensure maximum correspondence between the simulated and real combat tracked vehicle. Namely, it is necessary to construct a spatial model of the movement of a combat tracked vehicle in a terrain with a complex profile, which will include modeling the oscillations of the vehicle body while moving on the surface of a complex profile and the dynamic effect of braking and acceleration of the vehicle on body oscillations.
Keywords: combat tracked vehicle, operator, ergatic system, intelligent training system, system analysis, control object, control subject.
Awareness, Practice, and Compliance during Growth Hormone Therapy in Saudi Arabia
Authors: AlAgha Abdulmoein
Published: June 2022

Background: The degree of general awareness of the recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) therapy determines its success. However, poor compliance with therapy has previously resulted in negative clinical outcomes. Our study assessed the awareness, treatment practice, and compliance of pediatric patients and their parents, with regard to rhGH therapy.

Methods: Data for this descriptive cross-sectional study was obtained through clinical interviews with 301 children and their parents regarding their personal and demographic and clinical characteristics.

Results: Majority of the participants (92%) correctly identified that rhGH increased the linear growth of the child. Additionally, 88.4% of the sample preferred the nocturnal injection, and 85.3% complied with the therapy.

Conclusion: Adherence to rhGH therapy is essential in maintaining growth velocity, and long-term satisfactory results. Therefore, it is imperative to educate patients, along with their families, about the importance of adhering to their treatment protocols and the factors that enhance their effects.

Hand and body lotion is a skin moisturizing cosmetic preparation that belongs to the emollient (softener) class and has several properties, namely as a source of moisture for the skin, making hands and body soft but not greasy and easy to apply on the skin. Currently, there are quite a lot of moisturizers on the market, but most of them contain several compounds that have the potential to cause interference with the barrier and skin structure. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out a comprehensive exploration effort in order to develop a moisturizer that is safer against the barrier and skin structure. Some natural ingredients that have the potential to be developed as skin moisturizers are papaya latex, yam, VCO (virgin coconut oil), and cocoa fat.

In this era of digital technology, development makes it easier for humans to do things such as seek treatment easily and practically. Registration application online still has drawbacks, namely bugs in the application, the queue paper printing machine does not work, and error system barcode. Online and offline registration. Descriptive method using quantitative analysis. This research was conducted at Gatot Soebroto Army Central Hospital with a sample of 45 offline and 45 online, and 7 registration officers. SOP only covers offline, for SOP online still does not exist. Most of the patients in offline and online registration stated that the quality of service, knowledge, experience, and satisfaction was good. Officers feel that there has been a change since the online registration because it has become a new thing in the surgical polyclinic because the officer at registration at the surgical polyclinic assumes that it is necessary to socialize with patients on the online application because the majority of patients do not register online because they do not know how to register online, especially patients Elderly officers are of the opinion that online registration makes it easier at the registration section.
Pole Assignment by Proportional-plus-derivative State Feedback for Multivariable Linear Time-invariant Systems
Authors: Kiritsis Konstadinos H.
Published: June 2022

In this paper the pole assignment problem by proportional-plus-derivative state feedback for multivariable linear-time invariant systems is studied. In particular, explicit necessary and sufficient conditions are established for a given polynomial with real coefficients to be characteristic polynomial of closed-loop system obtained by proportional-plus-derivative state feedback from the given multivariable linear time-invariant system. A procedure is given for the calculation of proportional-plus-derivative state feedback which places the poles of closed-loop system at desired locations. Our approach is based on properties of polynomial matrices.
