Melted Swords and Broken Metal Vessels: A Late Bronze Age Assemblage from Tatabánya-Bánhida and the Selection of Melted Bronzes
Authors: Tarbay Gábor János
Published: May 2021

This study discusses finds acquired by the Hungarian National Museum in 1880 from Tatabánya-Bánhida.We presume that they have belonged to two assemblages. Assemblage ‘A’ consists of fragments of a burnt flange-hilted sword, an armspiral, fragments of a Type B1 cauldron and two metal sheets of uncertain function that might have belonged to a Hajdúböszörmény-style metal vessel and a miniature greave. Assemblage ‘B’ contains only two fragments of a melted sword. Macroscopic characterization of the finds revealed that all objects were finished products which were intentionally manipulated before their deposition. The sword fragments were partially melted and hacked into pieces, the valuable sheet metal products were broken and only small parts of them were buried. Assemblage ‘A’ is unique from a typological point of view as well as object selection. It can be dated to the Ha B1 based on the metal vessels. It has a unique combination lacking parallels among Ha B1 burials, however known among hoards from this territory and especially from the Northeast Carpathian Basin. These finds from Tatabánya-Bánhida were previously interpreted as burials because of the presence of melted objects. Within this study, several examples are also introduced for the selection of melted bronzes and human remains to hoards. The combination of finds in the Tatabánya-Bánhida assemblage and the above examples suggest that Assemblage ‘A’ could have been a rare type of hoard (funeral hoard), which is known from the only excavated context from Pázmándfalu.

Lectura en soportes impreso y digital: un estudio con jóvenes universitarios en España
Authors: Elche María , Santiago Yubero  , Larrañaga Elisa
Published: May 2021

Los jóvenes del siglo XXI han crecido en un contexto sociocultural marcado por las tecnologías de la información y la comunicación, en el que se ha producido una transformación en los materiales de lectura y en los modos de leer. El objetivo del estudio que aquí se presenta fue establecer una tipología de lectores basada en el soporte en el que realizan la lectura y analizar el comportamiento lector según la tipología. En el estudio, cuantitativo y transversal, participaron 1697 universitarios del ámbito socioeducativo, nacidos a partir de 1995, de distintas universidades españolas. Se establecieron diferentes tipos de lectores según los soportes de lectura utilizados: impreso, digital y mixto. Los resultados muestran que el lector en soporte impreso se corresponde más con un lector literario clásico, mientras que el lector digital se dirige, fundamentalmente, a una lectura informativa y vinculada con los temas de actualidad. En conclusión, los datos confirman que, aunque la lectura de libros sigue estando asociada fundamentalmente al formato tradicional, existe una transferencia de la lectura en papel a la lectura literaria en soporte digital, lo cual ha generado a su vez un lector más completo y multimodal con amplios intereses lectores.
Diseño y validación del instrumento para la evaluación de la calidad narrativa de relatos orales ficticios creados con el attachment script assessment
Authors: González Romero Nadya , Gutiérrez-Romero Mario Fernando , Molina Ríos Juliana Angélica , Mesa-Hoyos Tatiana , Carbonell Blanco Olga Alicia
Published: May 2021

El presente artículo reporta el proceso de diseño y validación del instrumento de evaluación de la calidad narrativa (ecan), cuyo objetivo es permitir la valoración de relatos ficticios producidos de manera oral y espontánea. La fase de diseño implicó la identificación de los criterios de evaluación, su operacionalización y ponderación. Una prueba piloto y un proceso de evaluación de intercodificadores permitieron su ajuste. Posteriormente, se llevó a cabo un proceso de validación empírica, en un corpus de 184 relatos producidos por 66 madres colombianas a través del Attachment Script Assessment. El análisis estadístico —como los coeficientes de alpha de Cronbach e interclase, chi cuadrado, las pruebas de Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin y de esfericidad de Bartlett, y un análisis de conglomerado bietápico— mostró que el instrumento alcanza una alta consistencia interna, una confiabilidad intercodificadores muy significativa y una validez de contenido significativa. También mostró que, con el entrenamiento adecuado, el ecan permite una evaluación de los relatos sin sesgos y errores, lo que implica que su uso es confiable y necesario para indagar sobre la calidad del discurso narrativo en contextos diversos.
Los nombres del tubérculo papa en el quechua de Pampacorral: hacia un enfoque cognitivo en el proceso de nominación
Authors: Domínguez Chenguayen Frank Joseph
Published: May 2021

Se estudió la manera en la que los quechuahablantes de Pampacorral asignan formas o significantes a diversas especies nativas de papas. Para ello, se analizó el proceso de nominación, donde se integraron una serie de principios teóricos de la lingüística cognitiva. A partir de ello, se logró establecer cómo diversos modelos cognitivos recuperan, inicialmente, información sensorial de los tubérculos y dan origen, posteriormente, a una serie diversa de denominaciones. De esta manera, los nombres de las variedades de papa ponen al descubierto no solo aspectos lingüísticos e históricos, sino también distintos procesos mentales en su construcción.
La comparación de los pronombres de segunda persona del singular en el español peninsular y en el euskera: ¿una misión imposible?
Authors: Basterretxea Santiso Gorka
Published: May 2021

Este trabajo toma los pronombres de segunda persona del singular —Pro2s— del español centro-norteño —tú y usted— y del euskera —hi y zu— como base, y con ello revisa estudios empíricos ya publicados sobre el español peninsular (Pedroviejo Esteruelas, 2006; Sampedro Mella, 2016; Sanromán Vilas, 2010). Por su parte, los datos para el euskera se basan en el análisis de 540 conversaciones de la serie Goenkale. Este estudio concluye que los Pro2s no son equivalentes al existir un pronombre pragmáticamente no marcado en euskera: zu. La única similitud está entre usted y zu cuando se usan de forma asimétrica.

Según la hipótesis de investigación, en este relato se muestra cómo los seres humanos están sujetos a determinados deseos inconscientes que socialmente no son aceptados. Dichos deseos se reprimen durante un tiempo, pero pueden retornar de una manera inesperada y violenta. Por lo tanto, se analizará este relato empleando categorías como la antropofagia, la abyección y la perversión.
Basura, escombros y ruinas: las líneas exocéntricas del discurso destrucción/reparación en El desbarrancadero, de Fernando Vallejo (1942)
Authors: Padilla Villada Edwin Mauricio
Published: May 2021

El artículo analiza de manera crítica la novela El desbarrancadero a la luz de algunas teorías relacionadas con las ruinas, la basura y la confesión, para determinar que la ruina en la obra de Vallejo es una diferenciada realidad de escombros que complejiza el espacio real y ficcional del escritor. Dicha realidad, junto a la basura de los discursos normativos, compone una fuente de formulaciones de carácter confesional y un sistema complejo de presencialidad virtual relacionado con la destrucción/reparación de los escombros, con la finalidad de instituir la obra literaria como ruina pura.
Decir lo indecible: la imaginación como último recurso
Authors: Ramírez Rave Juan Manuel
Published: May 2021

Este artículo plantea antecedentes de la estética del silencio como necesidad del ser humano de decir lo indecible y atestiguar las limitaciones e insuficiencias del lenguaje. Primero, rastrea la herrumbre de los signos como marca del escritor al que le faltan o no le alcanzan las palabras. Luego, plantea la crisis del lenguaje como fenómeno en el que la imagen del mundo ya no se puede aprehender solo a través del código lingüístico. Como conclusión, se concibe a la sociedad contemporánea como una «tribu» enmudecida y ensordecida que tiene a la imaginación como último recurso para poder decir lo indecible.
Framing Inspirational Content: Narrative Effects on Attributions and Helping
Authors: Moore Melissa M. , Green Melanie C. , Fitzgerald Kaitlin , Paravati Elaine
Published: May 2021

Media coverage often construes stories of misfortune as inspirational accounts of individuals overcoming challenges. These reports fail to address the systemic issues that have predisposed these individuals to their current situation, and may have unintended consequences when it comes to the ability to collectively address these failings as a society. The current research examines how audiences are affected by inspirational narrative framings by comparing responses to a narrative that has inspirational coverage of a social challenge to one that includes direct acknowledgement of the larger systemic failings. Participants (N = 495) were randomly assigned to 1) read an inspirational story about a boy saving up to buy a wheelchair for his friend, 2) read a version of the story that emphasized the need for increased disability funding/services, or 3) a no-story control group. Both story conditions raised readers’ willingness to help people with disabilities. Importantly, emphasizing social responsibility shifted readers’ perceptions: readers of the social responsibility story were less likely to believe an individual with a disability was responsible for paying for their medical devices, believed that some collective measures would have higher efficacy, and viewed the situation as less fair. Even though individuals in the social responsibility condition found the story less enjoyable, they were equally transported into it compared to the inspirational version, and were equally likely to want to share the story with others. Our results offer clear guidelines for media practitioners covering individual struggles and systemic issues within society.
The Dark Side of Inspirational Pasts: An Investigation of Nostalgia in Right-Wing Populist Communication
Authors: Menke Manuel , Wulf Tim
Published: May 2021

In recent years, research found that populism employed a new strategy by using nostalgia, a sentimental longing for the past, as a communication tool to persuade citizens to support their political agendas. In populist campaigns, nostalgia is used to affectively link (alleged) crises with longing for a cherished past. In this article, we applied a mixed-methods approach to understand how populists exploit nostalgia in their communication and how nostalgic rhetoric has the potential to persuade people to support their claims. In Study 1, we conducted a case study based on a qualitative content analysis of Alternative for Germany’s (AfD) online election campaign in the 2019 Thuringia election in East Germany. The analysis revealed that the campaign was built around the nostalgic narrative of the 1989 peaceful revolution as a proud historical moment for former German Democratic Republic citizens while at the same time creating a sense of crisis supposedly caused by false post-reunification politics. To further investigate the persuasiveness of nostalgia, Study 2 used a statement from the campaign and found that participants tended to agree more with populist statements if they contained nostalgic rhetoric (compared to non-nostalgic populist and control rhetoric). These findings suggest that right-wing populists can effectively exploit nostalgia and that it may ‘sugarcoat’ populist messages.
Enhance the Output Power of a Shaded Solar Photovoltaic Arrays with Shade Dispersion based TCT Configuration
Authors: Raju V Bala , Chengaiah Ch
Published: May 2021

Partial shading has a negative impact on the performance parameters of a Solar Photovoltaic (PV) array, because it shades certain panels while leaving others un-shaded. This article focuses on modeling, comparing and performance assessment of 6×6, 6×5 and 5×6 size shadowed solar PV arrays under different partial shading cases in the MATLAB/ Simulink software. For this purpose, the simulation of series-parallel (SP), Total-Cross-Tied (TCT) and proposed shade dispersion based TCT (SD-TCT) type of array configurations was carried out under few shading cases. The proposed SD-TCT was designed using the shades dispersion technique, which is based on a number logic approach. In this technique, in order to effectively remove the row-current mismatches in the TCT PV array configuration, the shaded and un-shaded modules in an array were re-arranged, so that the shading on modules expands across the whole array. The physical placement of the TCT array modules has been reordered in accordance with the proposed number logic pattern exclusive of altering the electrical links among the panels. The simulation results showed that the performance of the SD-TCT type was superior to that of conventional array configurations.
Maxillary Development in Patients with Unilateral Cleft Lip and Palate Compared with Individuals Having Skeletal Class I and Class III Malocclusion
Authors: Doğan Ege , Ergican Gülen Özses , Doğan Servet
Published: May 2021

Aim: To compare maxillary development of individuals with unilateral cleft lip and palate (CLP) to individuals with skeletal Class I and Class III malocclusions. Study design: Cephalometric X-ray films from 90 patients (mean age: 13 ± 2.3 years) were used. The number of samples was determined by Power analysis and three groups consisting of 30 patients (Group 1: Skeletal Class I, Group 2: Skeletal Class III, Group 3: CLP) were formed. A total of 13 cephalometric measurements were performed using Dolphin imaging software 11.7. The Kruskal-Wallis and ANOVA tests were used to calculate the differences. The Dunn test and Bonferroni correction were used in paired group comparisons. Results: SNA, Co-A, A-PTV Horizontal, Na-APog, A-Na-Pog, FH-NA, Sn’-Mx1, MxOP-TVL (p<0.001***), U6-PTV Vertical (p<0.01**), and NaBa PTV-Gn (p<0.05*) values were significantly different between the three groups. There was no significant difference in Na-ANS, FH-NPog, or Mx1 labial-ULA. SNA, Co-A, A-PTV Horizontal, Na-APog, and A-Na-Pog values between the 1st and 2nd groups and between the 1st and 3rd groups (p<0.001***) were significantly different. FH-Na-A, Sn’-Mx1, MxOP-TVL (p<0.001***), and U6-PTV vertical were different between groups 1 and 3 (p<0.01**), while FH-Na-A (p<0.001***), Sn’-Mx1, MxOP-TVL (p<0.01**), A-PTV Horizontal, and A-Na-Pog (p<0.05*) were significantly different between groups 2 and 3. Conclusion: Maxillary development in CLP differs from skeletal Class I but is similar to skeletal Class III. Considering the delay in maxillary development in the CLP patient, maxillary protraction and maxillary expansion are important treatment protocols in the early period.
The right to resist in times of COVID-19: the case of the Belarusian professional football
Authors: Loschi Crisafulli Felipe Augusto
Published: May 2021

The morality embedded in the mind of the masses is: respect the authorities and obey the rules and laws of the society in which they live. Nonetheless, there is a tension between a blind, unthinking obedience and the right to make autonomous moral decisions, namely when such authorities or their acts are corrupt or illegitimate. In that situation, should citizens think for themselves, they would not be actually circumventing the community rules, defying the constituted authorities or being deviant individuals, but carrying out their will, making their own moral decisions and defending their rights and wellness. This is what people, especially the professional footballers, are facing in Belarus, whether following the recommendations of the World Health Organization and most of the virologists around the globe or the President's coronavirus guidelines. Nevertheless, the best option seems to be the enforcement of an old but not outdated right (and/or duty?): the resistance.
Corona Crisis: Life versus Freedom?
Authors: Tewari Avantika
Published: May 2021

Agamben says, "What becomes of human relations in a country that grows accustomed to living in this way for who one knows how long? What is a society that cleaves to no value other than that of survival?" The following paper is an examination of the dominant responses to the Corona Crisis, including a brief critical appraisal of Naomi Klein's "Disas- ter Capitalism." The paper argues that Agamben's biopolitical reading of COVID relies on a latent bourgeois-humanist worldview. The paper seeks to enumerate the ways in which Marxist postulates such as 'class struggle' and the 'internal contradiction of capitalism' can be a useful addition to the existing debates that try to address the concerns of an emergent sur- veillance society as social relations are inflected with, contestations and contradictions between liberty and security under a capitalist system. As we find ourselves in the middle of uncertain times, caught between infinite possibilities, this paper is an attempt at exploring the ways in which state of exception, biopolitics and class struggle can speak to each other to fill the theoretical gaps to study the situation of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Genetics of COVID-19

Published: May 2021

COVID-19 is characterized by a wide range of clinical manifestations, from asymptomatic to extremely severe. At the onset of the pandemic, it became clear that old age and chronic illness were the major risk factors. However, they do not fully explain the variety of symptoms and complications of the SARS-COV-2 coronavirus infection. The research on genetic risk factors for COVID-19 is still at its early stages. A number of mutations and polymorphisms have been identified that affect the structure and stability of proteins factors of susceptibility to SARS-COV-2 infection, as well as a predisposition to the development of respiratory failure and the need for intensive care. Most of the identified genetic factors are related to the function of the immune system. On the other hand, the genetic polymorphism of the virus itself affects the COVID-19 spread and severity of its course . The genome of the virus accumulates mutations and evolves towards increasing contagiousness, replicative ability and evasion from the host's immune system. Genetic determinants of the COVID-19 infection are potential therapeutic targets. Studying them will provide information for the development of drugs and vaccines to combat the pandemic.

Creation of an inducible vector system based on the rhizobia nodA gene promoter
Authors: Chubukova Olga V. , Vershinina Zilya R. , Matnyazov Rustam T. , Baymiev Andrey K. , Baymiev Aleksey K.
Published: May 2021

BACKGROUND: The possibility of changing the properties of rhizobial bacteria by giving them the ability to regulate the expression of additionally introduced genes into them is an urgent task both for fundamental science and for applied agrobiology, since this will make it possible to obtain microsymbionts with desired properties. An expression construct using the rhizobia regulatory system was created in this work. The rhizobia nodD gene encodes a regulatory protein that, in the presence of plant inducers, flavonoids, activates the transcription of nod-genes involved in the early stages of the formation of legume-rhizobium symbiosis.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: A vector construct containing the nodD gene from Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. trifoli under the regulation of its own promoter and the gfp gene under the regulation of the nodA gene promoter from the same rhizobia was obtained. Neorhizobium galegae CIAM 0702 were transformed with the vector construct.
RESULTS: It has been shown that in recombinant strains synthetic flavonoids are capable of inducing expression of gfp gene to varying degrees.
CONCLUSION: In the future, the results can be used to obtain rhizosphere microorganisms with a controlled synthesis of growth-stimulating and protective substances.
Can Seismic Strain Waves Be Measured Quantitatively by Borehole Tensor Strainmeters?
Authors: Zhang Kanghua , Tian Jiayong , Hu Zhifei
Published: May 2021

It has been confirmed by comparison with particle velocities of surface waves of wave normal perpendicular to borehole axis measured by collocated seismic broadband array or borehole seismometers that high-sensitivity borehole tensor strainmeters could measure surface strain waves qualitatively. However, quantitative measurability of strain waves of wave normal being oblique to borehole axis by borehole tensor strainmeters is still a challenging problem. In this article, we introduce a scattering model of oblique-incidence seismic waves by an empty borehole to investigate the influence of incident-wave normal and polarization on theoretical-frequency-response bandwidth of borehole tensor strainmeters. Within the theoretical bandwidth of borehole tensor strainmeters, zero-frequency gains are introduced to build quantitative relation between instrumental strain waves of borehole tensor strainmeters and oblique-incidence seismic strain waves. Better understanding the influence of incident-wave normal and polarization on the relation between instrumental strain and strain components induced by the incident strain wave shows that incident-wave normal and polarization must be assessed by other instrumentation to promise quantitative measurement of incident strain waves by borehole tensor strainmeters, which would benefit in situ calibration of borehole tensor strainmeters.
Ocean-Bottom Seismology of Glacial Earthquakes: The Concept, Lessons Learned, and Mind the Sediments
Authors: Podolskiy Evgeny A. , Murai Yoshio , Kanna Naoya , Sugiyama Shin
Published: May 2021

About 70% of Earth’s surface is covered by ocean, for which seismic observations are challenging. Seafloor seismology overcame this fundamental difficulty and radically transformed the earth sciences, as it expanded the coverage of seismic networks and revealed otherwise inaccessible features. At the same time, there has been a recent increase in the number of studies on cryoseismology. These have yielded multiple discoveries but are limited primarily to land and ice-surface receivers. Near ice calving fronts, such surface stations are noisy, primarily due to crevassing and wind, are hazardous to maintain, and can be lost due to iceberg calving. To circumvent these issues, we have applied ocean-bottom seismology to the calving front of a tidewater glacier in northwest Greenland. We present details of this experiment, and describe the technical challenges, noise analysis, and examples of recorded data. This includes tide-modulated seismicity with thousands of icequakes per day and the first near-source (∼200–640  m) underwater record of a major kilometer-scale calving event in Greenland, which generated a glacial earthquake that was detectable ∼420  km away. We also identified a decrease in bottom-water temperature, presumably due to modified water stratification driven by extreme Greenland glacial melting, at the end of July 2019. Importantly, we identify glacial sediments as the key reason for the anomalously long (∼9.7  hr) delay in the sensor release from the fjord seafloor. Our study demonstrates a methodology to undertake innovative, interdisciplinary, near-source studies on glacier basal sliding, calving, and marine-mammal vocalizations.
The Elsinore earthquakes in central Utah, September 29 and October 1, 1921
Authors: Pack Frederick J.
Published: May 2021

Summary and Conclusion

The towns of Elsinore and Monore are situated near the pivot of the great Sevier rift. Intense movements have occurred along this zone in somewhat recent geological times. The earthquakes of September 29 and October 1, 1921, were undoubtedly initiated by movements on one or more of the various planes of this fault zone. While it is undoubtedly true that the growth of the High Plateaus has practically ceased, and, therefore, that displacements on the Sevier fault are largely past, yet further recurrences are by no means improbable.
Desempenho Silvicultural em Sistema Silvipastoril do Clone H13 de Eucalyptus urograndis em Diferentes Densidades aos 12 Anos
Authors: Ribeiro Yuri Saiter , Vera Damaris Elias , Almeida Roberto Giolo de , Laura Valdemir Antônio
Published: May 2021

Neste experimento objetivou-se avaliar o desempenho do clone H13 de Eucalyptus urograndis (Eucalyptus urophylla x Eucalyptus grandis) aos 12 anos, em diferentes densidades de plantio em área de pastagens degradadas no Cerrado em Mato Grosso do Sul. Os arranjos populacionais estabelecidos, foram para sistemas de integração pecuária e floresta (IPF, silvipastoris), para uso múltiplo da madeira, como: madeira serrada, construção civil, laminação e postes. O experimento foi realizado em Ribas do Rio Pardo, Mato Grosso do Sul. As árvores foram implantadas em uma roda de competição de Nelder e, em função do desenho experimental, os arranjos populacionais permitiriam avaliar densidades entre 180 e 1.332 plantas ha-1. Entretanto, considerando que o foco deste trabalho foi o sistema silvipastoril, efetuou-se a análise dendrológica nas densidades entre 180 e 584 plantas ha-1 [diâmetro a altura do peito (DAP, cm) e altura das plantas, em m] e calculou-se o volume de madeira (m³) produzido por árvore e por hectare). Pode-se concluir que para as variáveis altura, diâmetro a altura do peito (DAP) e produção de madeira serrada, a densidade espacial influenciou diretamente nos resultados obtidos, sendo recomendado para sistemas silvipastoris, nessa região do Estado do Mato Grosso do Sul, o plantio entre 180 e 324 plantas ha-1.

Abstract

In this experiment we aimed to evaluate the performance of Eucalyptus urograndis clone H13 (Eucalyptus urophylla x Eucalyptus grandis) after 12 years of planting, in different planting densities in Cerrado pasture areas in Mato Grosso do Sul State (Brazil). The selected population arrangements were for systems of livestock and forest integration, for multiple use of wood, such as: sawn wood, timber, lamination, poles. The trees were implanted in a Nelder competition wheel and, due to the experimental design, the population arrangements would allow evaluate, in experimental area, densities between 180 and 1,332 plants ha-1. However, considering that the focus of this work was the livestock and forest integration system (silvopastoral systems), a dendrological analysis was carried out in densities between 180 and 584 plants ha-1 (diameter at breast height (DBH, cm) and height of the plants, in m) and the volume of wood (m³) per tree and per hectare was calculated. It can be concluded that for the variables height, diameter at breast height and production of sawn wood, the spatial density directly influenced the results obtained, being recommended for silvopastoral systems, in this region of the State of Mato Grosso do Sul (Brazil), planting between 180 and 324 plants ha-1.

Nowadays, military expenditures have an important share in public expenditures of countries. Although military expenditures have an important share in public expenditures, it is considered that military expenditures are unproductive in the economic growth and development process. The point in question, increases in military expenditures may cause less spending on economic and social fields. Thus, in this study, it is aimed to investigate the effect of military spending on economic growth and unemployment in Turkey. A data set which based on the period 1988-2019 was used to examine the relations between variables. According to the findings of Maki (2012) cointegration test, a cointegration relationship was found between military expenditure (ME), economic growth (EG) and unemployment (UNEMP). The FMOLS estimator was used for the estimation of long run coefficients in the study. According to the results, it has been determined that military expenditures increase economic growth and unemployment in the long term. This results showed that military expenditure led to growth that not based on employment in Turkey.

A research to study the chemical properties of hyacinth- and straw-compost decomposed by natural and artificial activators was conducted at the Research Field of Faculty of Agriculture, Muhammadiyah University of Yogyakarta. Cow manure was used as natural activator, while Stardec (powdered) and EM4 (liquid) as artificial ones. The treatment was arranged in 2x3 factorial completely randomized design. The hyacinth and straw organic sources were decomposed by cow manure, Stardec and EM4 activators. Organic matters were incubated for 5-6 weeks then pH, C-organic, N-total, available P and K, CEC, and the .exchngeable  Ca,  K and Mg were measured. The results showed that the hyacinth-compost had the better maturity according to the C/N ratio (C/N20) than the straw-compost (C/N20), but the two kinds of compost had the moderate mature rate of humic substances.  The straw-compost had better quality though as shown in its higher available phosphorus and excheangable potassium, especially when decomposed by EM4 artificial activator. Application of artificial activators Stardec and EM4 enhanced the maturity rate of hyacinth-compost.

Idea universitas studiorum w świetle głównych założeń ustawy 2.0. Kilka refleksji o misji współczesnego uniwersytetu

Wspólnota nauczanych i nauczających stanowi podstawową przesłankę wzorca idealnej uczelni wyższej. Powszechnie przyjmuje się, że to w epoce średniowiecza stworzono uniwersytet, chociaż pierwotne oznaki akademickości pojawiały się już w starożytnej Grecji. Od początków istnienia uniwersytetów w Europie bliskie im były takie wartości, jak: prawda, autonomia, pluralizm, wolność, powszechność, które przenikały się wzajemnie w głównym nurcie procesu dążenia do prawdy. Funkcjonowanie starożytnych form działalności naukowej i kształcenia oraz powstanie pierwszych średniowiecznych uniwersytetów europejskich nieodzownie łączy się z kształtowaniem idei uniwersytetu. Proces ten nie był, i także współcześnie nie jest w swym przebiegu jednorodny. Na tym tle starano się dokonać weryfikacji i oceny głównych założeń ostatniej reformy szkolnictwa wyższego w Polsce (tzw. ustawy 2.0). Analiza obejmuje przede wszystkim przyjęte cele reformy, sposób określenia misji uniwersytetu oraz poprawność procesu legislacyjnego. Całość rozważań dokonywana jest w perspektywie średniowiecznej idei universitas studiorum. Bez wątpienia bowiem wypracowane w epoce średniowiecza typy uniwersytetów są do dziś uznawane za modele wzorcowe.
ORGANIZATIONAL APPROACHES TO OPERATIONAL CONTROL AT INDUSTRIAL ENTERPRISES

Published: May 2021

Abstract. Modern operating conditions of the vast majority of industrial enterprises require an operational control system. This will not only make it possible to timely respond to the negative impacts of the external and internal environment, but will also provide opportunity to make informed management decisions, providing competitive advantages. A well-functioning operational control system will not only identify defects in a timely manner, but also promptly eliminate them and prevent their future manifestations. The approaches of scientists to various aspects of the organization of internal, in particular, operational control at enterprises are considered. Particular attention is paid to the analysis of the operational control organization. It is proved that the organizational structure of an industrial enterprise should have an internal control department, which is directly subordinate to the head of the enterprise and is interconnected with all its structural divisions. The composition of the internal control department is presented, which includes the head of the department and internal controllers (an internal controller and an operational controller). Their functional responsibilities are determined. It is noted that the operational controller should carry out operational control of possible deviations, taking into account their further influence on the results of activities, analyze control results, provide the head with information on the identified shortcomings in the work of structural units, as well as proposals for their elimination. A sequence of actions for the control process is proposed to be carried out using the following main stages: preparatory, verification, comparative, diagnostic, informational, managerial and final. Each of them is performed by a certain group of subjects of operational control, which take various control measures. The implementation of operational control at industrial enterprises in accordance with the proposed stages will contribute to the division of duties between employees directly involved in control, the prompt transfer of information to the appropriate decision-making centers and the rational organization of operational control at industrial enterprises.
Keywords: internal control, operational control, industrial enterprise, control organization, internal control department, operational controller, stages of operational control.

Abstract. A research method of determining the clustering potential of the industrial complex of the region is proposed within the article. The main objective of the research is the development of a strategy of the formation and development of an innovative agroindustrial cluster of the region in the setting of decentralization of authoritative powers. In modern economic conditions, the search and application of new, adequate approaches to innovative development of agroindustrial enterprises is reasonably required. It is proved that the most significant form of the implementation of the agroindustrial enterprise potential is innovative clusters, which should be considered as economic subjects concentrated and technologically related on the geographical grounds and technologically new ones, which form territorial production complexes on a specific territory.
It is substantiated that the policy of decentralization of authoritative powers is a significant catalyst for the cluster development, especially the agroindustrial production and economic recovery of many rural areas.
This article studies the objective of intensification of the formation processed of innovative agroindustrial clusters in the regions of Ukraine. The block diagram showing the result estimation of clustering development of innovative agroindustrial enterprises of the region is proposed. A conceptual model of formation and development of innovative agroindustrial cluster of the region, which is based on structural modernization of economic space, solution of economic, social and ecological problems due to effective use of available areal resources, is developed.

Анотація. Метою роботи є побудова динамічної математичної моделі ймовірності розорення страхової організації, яку можна вважати критерієм платоспроможності, з урахуванням норми дохідності та показника інфляції. Використано загальнонаукові і спеціальні методи дослідження: метод критичного аналізу, наукової абстракції та узагальнення наукового досвіду сучасних теоретичних досліджень, системно-комплексний підхід і метод динамічного математичного моделювання. Побудова динамічної математичної моделі нерозорення страхової організації з урахуванням рівня інфляції (оскільки інфляція негативно впливає на всі аспекти страхової справи, у тому числі й на стан страхових резервів) і норми дохідності інвестиційних вкладень. Визначено особливості інвестиційної діяльності страхових компаній. Проведено оцінку величини страхового внеску, який забезпечує формування достатньої величини страхового фонду, тобто платоспроможність страхової організації. Відповідно, визначено страховий тариф і величину навантаження до страхового тарифу, яке відповідає заданій імовірності розорення страховика. Дістали подальшого розвитку методичні підходи до моделювання ймовірності неплатоспроможності (імовірності нерозорення) страхової організації. Запропоновано динамічну математичну модель імовірності нерозорення, яка враховує показник інфляції та норму дохідності. Запропонована модель оцінки ймовірності нерозорення страхової організації дозволяє оцінити і прогнозувати платоспроможність страховика та може бути використана при стратегічному, поточному та оперативному плануванні діяльності страхової організації. Отримана залежність навантаження до страхового тарифу дозволяє страховій компанії більш оперативно реагувати на можливі зміни ринкової кон’юнктури шляхом зміни страхового тарифу.
Ключові слова: страхова організація, динамічна модель, імовірність нерозорення, інфляція, норма дохiдності.
