HYDRAULIC DESIGN AND SIMULATION OF DIFFERENT COMBINATIONS OF BLOCKS OPERATING IN TRICKLE IRRIGATION
Authors: Carvalho Guilherme Busi de , Coelho Rubens Duarte , Jacomazzi Marco Antônio , Farias-Ramirez Asdrubal Jesus , Duarte Sergio Nascimento , Barros Timóteo Herculino da Silva
Published: July 2023

There is little open-source software for trickle irrigation design and none of it is designed to simulate operating conditions on a specific hydraulic network already assembled in the field. Farmers employing trickle irrigation frequently need to change irrigation block operations over the years (parcel combinations), because of plant renovations in certain areas of the irrigated field or the adoption of precision irrigation. This work free software developed using Visual Basic® language that is able to simulate different block combinations of parcels, taking into consideration the pump parameters of flowrate, pressure, power requirements and efficiency and the main hydraulic network parameters of water speed, pressure and head loss. The software we developed was applied to a trickle irrigation system for citrus growing. The equations used to calculate head loss were Hazen-Williams and Darcy-Weisbach, and users could choose between these two equations depending on their application. The software worked efficiently for making the hydraulic calculations, providing simulations that graphically assisted users in choosing which combination of operation parcels (block combinations) and pump parameters (rotation speed and impeller diameter) for optimal operation of the irrigation system. The program ensured that the pressure along the irrigation network was compatible with the nominal operating pressure of the pipeline and safety valves.
The Northern Sea Route: National Patriotism and Business Interests
Authors: Agapov Mikhail
Published: July 2023

This article analyzes a campaign to involve Russian and foreign sailors in discovering a sea route to Siberia. The campaign was launched in the 1860s–1870s by M. K. Sidorov, a Siberian gold miner and public figure (1823–1887). Sidorov’s recruiting campaign is a perfect example of an attempt to establish cooperation between segments of the imperial periphery in the realm of a private commercial project while avoiding direct participation of the imperial center. Sidorov acted as a third party in the communication between the imperial authorities and local communities, successfully pitching himself as an independent, albeit not always successful, actor. The window of opportunity for the enterprising Siberian industrialist opened due to the Great Reforms of the 1860s, which launched the process of a dynamic and multifaceted transformation of the Empire. This process was gradually encompassing the most remote borderland territories of the Empire, including those in the North. But, unlike businessmen from different classes who perceived these territories as a source of enrichment (export of timber, graphite, sea-hunting industry, fisheries, etc.), the imperial center treated its vast northern territorial possessions as a burden and did not want to invest in their development. In the 1860s–1870s, the transportation infrastructure of the northern borderland or the Empire developed largely due to specialists from Great Britain, the United Kingdoms of Sweden and Norway, Finland, the Governorate of Livonia, and Estonia. The northern periphery of the Russian Empire was increasingly falling under foreign influence, which caused concern for private entrepreneurs and government officials. A way to replace foreign sailors was training indigenous peoples of the Russian North in maritime affairs.
Fighting Against the ‘Poisoners’ in Cholera-Stricken Petersburg
Authors: Egorov Aleksandr
Published: July 2023

This article examines an underexplored episode in the history of the cholera riots – the ‘hunt for the poisoners’ which happened in St Petersburg in June 1831. This relevance of the topic is determined by the importance of studying the population’s behavior during an epidemic crisis, challenging both the authorities’ ability to stabilize the situation and the possibility of dialogue between them and society. Based on newly-introduced archival sources, the paper attempts to reconstruct the events of June 24–25, 1831 – essential for an understanding of the subsequent developments in Russia, but which have been overshadowed by the cholera riots of June 21–22, 1831, well described by contemporary sources. The cholera outbreak in the imperial capital in mid-June 1831 sparked popular discontent with anti-cholera measures, culminating in attacks on the city’s cholera hospitals. After a temporary respite following the events of June 22 on Sennaya Square, the riots erupted with renewed vigor but with a change in form and substance. On June 24 and 25, instead of attacking hospitals in large crowds, the rioters sought out alleged ‘poisoners’ detaining and handing them over to the authorities on suspicion of having poisoned food and water. Amongst part of the population, this poisoning was considered the real cause of the deaths attributed by doctors and the authorities to cholera. These events of June 24–25 have received little attention from researchers. But it was the St Petersburg ‘hunt for poisoners’ that provided a model for Russia’s ‘cholera panic’ of July 1831, during which the population sought to battle the alleged malicious poisoners. The panic caused a series of mass riots in the European part of Russia. The most violent events during the unrest were the bloody mutinies of military settlers in Novgorod province. The events of June 24–25 in St Petersburg played a significant role in the emergence of the cholera panic in Russia in the summer of 1831.
The Founder of Kazakh Autonomy as Seen by a Modern Russian Author
Authors: Rynkov Vadim
Published: July 2023

This article analyses a monograph on the political biography of Alikhan Bukeikhanov, an outstanding researcher and public figure of Kazakhstan, written by a Russian author. The undeniable achievements of Kazakh historiography consist in the introduction to academic use of a significant volume of sources about the life and activities of the participants of the Alash movement and their fate in the Soviet state. Documents and literature on A. Bukeikhanov occupy a significant place among them. The book by V. I. Kozodoy assesses some misconceptions and unsubstantiated assertions entrenched in historiography concerning terminological inaccuracies and episodes of the character’s life. At the same time, the book contains hypotheses and assumptions which are not substantiated. Meanwhile, in the reviewer’s opinion, they become the basis for making fundamental conclusions and revising the predecessors’ assessments. While Kozodoy selectively addresses studies by Russian historians, conceptually, his book is based on Kazakh historiography. Following it, he portrays Bukeykhanov as a founder of modern democratic independent Kazakhstan, compares him to M. Kemal (Ataturk), and characterizes the revolutionary process and civil war as Kazakhs’ struggle for independence. The analysis makes it possible to estimate Kozodoy’s monograph not so much as a scholarly project but as an important part of the nation-building political mythology of modern Kazakhstan.
Mechanisms of property rights protection in dairy agro-industrial systems: A study in Paraná, Brazil, and old Midi-Pyrénées, France
Authors: Sudré Carolina Andrea G. W. , Souza José Paulo , Bouroullec Melise D. M.
Published: July 2023

Abstract Purpose: This study aims to understand the mechanisms of property rights guarantee in the dairy agro-industrial system (DAGS) in Paraná, Brazil, and in the old Midi-Pyrénées region, France. Originality/value: From a complementary perspective of Transaction Cost Theory and Measurement Cost Theory, the proposal in the study is that the use of mechanisms to guarantee property rights through safeguards, parameters, measurement, agreements, or litigation contributes to the transaction of differentiated products and also to the protection of these rights, favoring systems improvement. Design/method/approach: A descriptive qualitative study was done, encompassing 25 semi-structured interviews with producers, processors, and key agents of the DAGS in the state of Paraná in Brazil and in the old Midi-Pyrénées region of France, in 2016 and 2017. Qualitative content analysis was performed with NVivo Pro software. Findings: It was identified that in France and in the central-eastern and western regions of Paraná, the use of complementary protection property rights mechanisms (safeguards, parameters, measurement, agreements, or litigation) allows higher quality milk transactions and reinvestments in production by agents, contributing to system improvement. In the northern region of Paraná, the limited use of property rights mechanisms (verbal agreement, measurement, unreliable information sharing, and the absence of ex post protection) allows minimal quality milk trans actions and restricts reinvestments in production, limiting systems improvement.

Authors: Lima Catarina , Diedio Pollyana , Brasolotto Alcione Ghedini , Antonetti-Carvalho Angélica Emygdio , Silverio Kelly
Published: July 2023

ABSTRACT Purpose: this study aimed to verify the effects of indirect vocal therapy (IVT), via telehealth, in physical education professionals in voice self-assessment, as well as vocal quality. Methods: 16 physical education professionals, aged between 18 and 50 years, both sexes, participated in the study. All participants were submitted to eight IVT sessions twice a week, 30 minutes each, remotely. The assessments happened remotely, too. Vocal health was explained to modify vocal habits and general health, coping strategies, stress management, and therapeutic interaction. The following protocols were applied: Vocal Disorders Screening Index, Voice Symptoms Scale (VoiSS), Voice Handicap Index (VHI), and vocal recording (/a/ and counting) was performed, evaluating the general degree of vocal quality, pre and post-IVT. The Wilcoxon Test (p<0.05) was applied to verify the findings. Results: there was a significant decrease in the values of the VoiSS protocol (total p=0.041; limitation p=0.032), and VHI (total p=0.012; p=0.005), and in the general degree of vocal quality in vowel /a/ (p=0.011). Conclusion: IVT applied through telehealth in physical education professionals, has positive effects on vocal and laryngopharyngeal symptoms, improving the self-perception of voice handicaps. IVT significantly improved the general degree of vocal quality, only in the emission of the sustained vowel.

Published: July 2023

ABSTRACT Alternative communication has been successfully used in interventions to develop communication skills in children with ASD. However, few studies in Brazil have approached nonverbal adolescents with autism. This article aimed to demonstrate the impact of using an alternative communication system on the development of communication skills in a nonverbal adolescent presented with ASD. This is a single-case study with longitudinal intervention. Skills were assessed with the Communication Assessment in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ACOTEA). There was progress in communicative and behavioral skills. Receptive communications had a greater variation between the first, second, and third applications, increasing from 50% to 66.60% and then 83.30%, followed by social behavior, which increased from 45.80% to 70.80% and then 75%. The use of alternative communication with a robust communication system indicated evidence of the development of communication skills and social behavior in the adolescent with ASD that received the treatment.
Covid-19 e tutela de direitos na Justiça Federal: atores, interesses e temas da judicialização da pandemia
Authors: Ribeiro Ricardo Silveira
Published: July 2023

Resumo Este artigo estima um modelo estatístico explicativo dos fatores que determinaram a tutela judicial de direitos em casos relacionados ao tema covid-19 na Justiça Federal do Brasil. Por meio do uso de um método de análise estatística multinível, os resultados revelaram que as probabilidades de obtenção da tutela judicial dependeram de uma complexa interação entre características processuais que identificam os perfis de autores, seus interesses subjacentes e o tema envolvido na discussão. Análises dos diferentes perfis de ações judiciais também evidenciaram que estados, Distrito Federal e municípios foram os autores de maior sucesso na obtenção de decisões judiciais favoráveis em demandas associadas ao tema da flexibilização da aplicação de regras jurídicas. Evidências ainda sugerem que a Justiça Federal não se deixou contaminar com a “polarização”, preferindo, por razões jurídicas, a manutenção do status quo a alocar direitos em favor de autores de qualquer um dos extremos do momento político atual.

Published: July 2023

Abstract Introduction The incidence of stroke in adults has increased in recent years, and individuals who survive often have one or more motor and cognitive deficits. In Brazil, the Unified Health System (SUS) faces difficulties in reabsorbing the entire population that needs physiotherapy after hospital discharge. In addition, the distance to rehabilitation units in Rio de Janeiro can be far, making it impossible for some patients to receive the treatment they need. Objective To create a complementary mobile application for adults with unilateral motor deficits and to evaluate its content through expert judges. Methods Applied research for the construction of a mobile app with the prototyping method by Pressman. Steps: 1) literature review; 2) development of the technological framework; 3) construction of the content; and 4) construction of a prototype. The app content was evaluated using the e-Delphi Method for peer review using a Likert-type questionnaire on the Google Forms platform. Results The application was developed and designed to run on the Android operating system. Three rounds were carried out to evaluate the app's content. The final average of the content validity index (CVI) of all content items was 0.85, reaching the minimum agreement of 0.80, suggested by authors. Conclusion The content of a mobile app for adults with unilateral post-stroke motor deficits was developed and approved, and its content was evaluated by expert judges. We believe that this app can contribute to the promotion of physical rehabilitation in people with unilateral motor deficits after hospital discharge.

Published: July 2023

Abstract In 2016, Brazil approved Law nº 13,409, determining quotas for individuals with disabilities in post-secondary non-tertiary and tertiary education courses of federal educational institutions. Since 1995, National Institute for Educational Studies and Surveys/Ministry of Education (Inep/MEC) has collected data on university courses and student enrollment with the Higher Education Census. Since 2009, this census lists and individually identifies with a code generated by Inep all students enrolled in Higher Education courses, with various information, including whether they have or not any disabilities. Few studies on students with disabilities in tertiary education have been conducted exploring this extensive database. The current study outlines a profile of students with disabilities who joined the system from 2009 to 2019, last year when it was possible to obtain the information. Due to the Brazilian General Data Protection Law, Inep discontinued the publication of microdata per student, which allowed the tabulations presented here. Not only was this done, but the microdata used in this text was also removed from the page. The students with disability showed a different profile when compared to other students; for example, with respect to the distribution by gender, age and choice of course/area. Obviously, institutions that offer some type of assistive technology and/or technical help seem to attract more students with disability. The largest number of students with disability present physical disabilities, followed by vision-impairment, both increasing in time. The total contingent of students with disability more than doubled in the period under scrutiny, with an average growth rate of 9.0% p.y., but percentage of students with disability in Higher Education is still smaller when compared to the total number of students. The growth trend shows that the inclusion process in tertiary education is still beginning.

As Habilidades de Visualização Espacial (HVE) representam um dos pilares do pensamento geométrico, que é uma importante competência no desenvolvimento cognitivo e matemático. Dessa forma, são vastas as pesquisas que investigam e analisam essas tarefas e emerge a necessidade de compreender quais habilidades específicas cada tipo de tarefa desenvolve. Nesse contexto, o objetivo deste artigo é analisar como as tarefas que demandam HVE têm sido classificadas ao longo da literatura. Sendo assim, esta pesquisa bibliográfica de abordagem qualitativa descreve e correlaciona as Aptidões Espaciais de Del Grande (1994), os Cinco Elementos do Pensamento Espacial de Maier (1996) e as Ações de Visualização de Gonzato, Fernández e Díaz (2011) com a Categorização de Ações de Visualização de Mathias e Simas (2021) elaboradas para a análise de tarefas de livros didáticos que demandam HVE. A partir das discussões, esta pesquisa expande as habilidades específicas abordadas por esses autores e discute como as Ações de Visualização definidas em Mathias e Simas (2021) contemplam as HVE de forma ampla e podem ser utilizadas como base para futuras análises de tarefas de visualização.
Centrifuge modelling of ground vibrations mitigation by inclined geofoam barrier
Authors: Shahnazari Habib , Kazemi Mohammad , Baziar Mohammad Hassan
Published: July 2023

This paper presents a centrifuge study on the performance of inclined geofoam barriers compared to a vertical geofoam barrier for the mitigation of ground vibrations induced by high-speed railways. Three different barrier inclinations (60°, 90° and 120°) are used in three centrifuge models. Each centrifuge model is tested for seven different frequencies. Therefore, the results of 21 centrifuge tests are reported in this paper. The results show that the barrier efficiency (BE) of inclined barriers is greater than the vertical BE for the points located behind the barrier. However, for a point located before the barrier, the BE reduces by using inclined barriers instead of the vertical barrier. The results also illustrate that the barrier efficiencies for the two inclined barriers used in this research, which have supplementary angles, are almost the same.

Mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase I variation in Asian tiger mosquito (Aedes albopictus): Determination of the different and multiple introduction situations in Turkiye
Authors: Öztürk Murat , Akiner Muhammet Mustafa
Published: July 2023

Aedes (Stegomyia) albopictus (Skuse, 1894) is an invasive mosquito species that can transmit many arboviral diseases. In Turkiye, this species was found first in Thrace in 2011, then in the Eastern Black Sea in 2014, and in the Aegean regions in 2018. We analyzed the COI gene region of 554 samples from 13 different locations in the Black Sea, Aegean, and Marmara regions to determine the COI diversity and possible introduction origin of A. albopictus in Türkiye. Three haplotypes derived from two segregation sites were detected, and the Hd and π values were 0.175 and 0.00029, respectively. Hap_1 was a common haplotype and was detected in all regions. Hap_2 was detected in the Black Sea and Marmara regions, while Hap_3 was rare, and recorded only in Aegean lineages. In pairwise FSTs of 13 geographical populations, the Marmara lineages were statistically different from the Black Sea and Aegean lineages (except the Mugla samples). AMOVA test results indicated significant differences between the three studied regions (df = 2, f = 0.01784). Although Turkish Aedes albopictus lineages appear to have originated from temperate Northern Italy lineages and Aegean lineages may have originated from a mix of Italy and Albania lineages, the results revealed multiple introduction events via various routes.

High-Molecular-WeightSPRI-aided DNA extraction from Mimulus (Phrymaceae) leaf tissue v2
Authors: Aponte Rolón Bolívar
Published: July 2023

This protocol is adapted from Russo et al. 2023 methods for high-molecular weight DNA extraction. I modified the protocol to use reagents and incubation conditions used by the Ferris Lab at Tulane University to extract DNA from Mimulus spp. (monkeyflower) tissue (leaf and buds), see protocol. The original CTAB:Chloroform protocol used by the Ferris lab traces back to the Willis Lab at Duke University. The objective of these DNA extractions are to collect fungal DNA present in leaf tissue. I have incorporated sample preparation procedures used by the Arnold Lab at The University of Arizona to eliminate contamination of samples and optimize DNA extractions from preserved leaf tissue for future fungal ITS Illumina MiSeq sequencing. Solid phase reversible immobilization beads (SPRI) utilized are adapted from Rohland and Reich 2012 and Liu et al 2023. All extractions were performed in a sterile biosafety cabinet to prevent sample contamination. Prior to being placed in CTAB, photosynthetic tissue from plants was surface sterilized with sequential washes in 95% EtOH (10 s) , 0.5% sodium hypochlorite (1 min), and 70% EtOH (1min) and air dried under sterile conditions.Due to the small size of monkeyflower plants, the maximum amount of leaf tissue produced per host were placed in 750- 1000 µL of CTAB buffer and kept at RT until DNA extraction process. *Several aspects of this protocol, mainly those with reagent amounts and molarities, have changed compared to the Russo et al 2023 protocol and the Willis Lab standard CTAB extraction protocol from ca. 2010.

В последние годы применение метода дендрохронологии в археологии претерпевает существенную трансформацию, позволяющую привлекать древесный материал, ранее считавшийся малоперспективным. Одним из ярких примеров являются древесные угли из археологических памятников. В рамках представленной работы было исследовано 448 образцов углей, собранных в местах раскопок металлургических (железоплавильных) печей в Курайской и Чуйской котловинах Русского (Горного) Алтая. Анализ существующих решений по пробоподготовке такого материала показал их низкую скорость и результативность. В данной статье предлагается авторский подход, позволяющий с минимальными трудозатратами выполнить быструю и качественную пробоподготовку большого числа древесных углей практически любого размера и формы. Его несомненными преимуществами являются существенное снижение затрат на приобретение оборудования, повышение качества измерения годичных колец, возможность полноценной удаленной работы по измерению образцов, снятие проблемы верификации, расширение диапазона измеряемых параметров годичного кольца. Потенциально проведение дальнейших исследований позволит решить принципиальную проблему, связанную с построением длительной древесно-кольцевой хронологии в аридной зоне Южной Сибири. Такая хронология будет уникальным инструментом для определения календарного возраста древесины из многочисленных курганов, расположенных в межгорных котловинах Алтае-Саянского региона, погодичных реконструкций режима увлажнения, выявления частоты экстремальных засух и других природных явлений на этой территории.

Статья посвящена уникальному источнику — «Чертежу земли Нарымского города» из «Чертежной книги Сибири» С. У. Ремезова. Чертеж представляет пространственно-графическую модель, в условно-схематичной форме воспроизводящую действительность конца XVII в. Он охватывает территорию Нарымского и Кетского уездов, что на современной административной карте соответствует северной части Томской обл., известной под названием «Нарымский край». Обосновывается информационный потенциал чертежа, на котором зафиксированы разнообразные данные по истории, географии, этнографии, сведения о системе расселения и инфраструктуре этой территории в конце XVII в. Анализируется один из элементов чертежа, передающий положительные формы рельефа, рассматривается вопрос его достоверности и историко-культурного значения для обитателей Нарымского края, предложен определенный методический алгоритм решения этой проблемы. Установлено, что для обозначения возвышенностей картограф использовал два типа условных знаков: изображение горы или гряды гор и утолщенные линии. Проведенное исследование позволяет сделать заключение о том, что «горы» на «Чертеже земли Нарымского города» обозначают реальные природно-географические особенности Нарымского края, которые зафиксированы путешественниками и исследователями Сибири XVII-XIX вв., запечатлены в устных преданиях местного населения и подтверждаются современной естественно-географической ситуацией. С. У. Ремезов отобразил возвышенные элементы ландшафта, исходя из их практической пользы в освоении земель.

Статья посвящена творчеству Ф.А. Фиельструпа (1889-1933), который принадлежал к кругу российских этнографов, закладывавших в начале ХХ в. основы системного изучения тюркского мира Центральной Азии. Источниковую базу работы составили материалы архива ИЭА РАН (фонд Ф.А. Фиельструпа) — дневник Минусинско-Абаканской экспедиции 1920 г. и записная книжка, которые вводятся в научный оборот в данной статье. Авторами рассмотрены неизвестные страницы этнографического изучения Енисейского края, история создания Института изучения Сибири. Воссозданы процесс организации и проведения Минусинско-Абаканской экспедиции, ее маршрут. Изложены записанные у хакасов и обобщенные Ф.А. Фиельструпом данные о поселениях, предметах быта, родовых структурах и системах родства, семейной обрядности, ритуалах, фольклоре и шаманских воззрениях. Подчеркивается, что ученый на основе историко-генетического подхода обозначил динамичный облик культуры; одним из первых поставил вопрос о синкретичности воззрений хакасов. На основе анализа материалов Минусинско-Абаканской экспедиции сделан вывод о том, что Ф.А. Фиельструп апробировал комплексный подход, основанный на сочетании языкознания, этнографии, антропологии. В российской гуманитарной науке этот подход сохранял свое значение на протяжении ХХ в. и сегодня по-прежнему определяет перспективы изучения тюркских народов Центральной Азии.

The given research deals with one of the most important issues related to pre-service translators’ training such as both language and professional skills development in Kazakhstani settings. Thus, skills in oral translation from English into Kazakh and/or Russian and vice versa are in pretty high demand these days that is why one of the aims of Translation and interpreting internship course is to develop the consecutive translation skills of pre-service translators. So, to imitate the conditions of interpreters’ work we conducted the mock conference dedicated to the main problems of Translation studies and Linguistics in the frame of the above mentioned course. The main idea of this case study was to involve our students into both research and professional activity as well as to develop their language and consecutive translation skills. Our research population included 47 students who worked both as presenters and interpreters in the frame of the mock conference procedure. Then we conducted the opinion survey using the online tools provided by the Moodle platform (in our case, the option of Critical incident survey had been chosen as the most appropriate one).

In the modern mathematics learning process in school, the skill of creating examples and counterexamples in both familiar and new situations is emphasized. In the context of critical thinking, the construction of examples and counterexamples is an effective technique for evaluating statements and justifying arguments. This technique is suitable for students before other methods of proving general statements in mathematics are introduced.The aim of the study is to highlight the topics of the study course "Elements of Mathematical Logic and Set Theory" for the Professional Bachelor's degree in Teacher Education, which are relevant for constructing examples and counterexamples. In the study, the qualitative and quantitative analysis of the answers of the students in teacher programs to the questions of the questionnaire about the student experience related to the ability to formulate examples and counterexamples was carried out. The research shows that the creation of examples and counterexamples to the given statements does not cause great difficulties. It is much more difficult to create statements with mathematical content for grades 1-6, the truth verification of which, using the technique of constructing examples and counterexamples, would activate the formation of understanding of mathematical concepts and relationships. In order to connect the topics of the "Elements of Mathematical Logic and Set Theory" course with the planned results of primary education, a qualitative content analysis of the Latvian primary education standard and the primary education program was carried out. Based on the results obtained in the study, the authors identified several topics that are relevant in the course "Elements of Mathematical Logic and Set Theory".

Published: July 2023

In the context of lifelong learning, the importance of learning to learn is increasingly emphasised. There have been different views on defining the concept of learning to learn and the final definition has not been available yet. Researchers have made attempts to define and explore this concept in different areas. Sometimes they come from quite different epistemological and logical backgrounds. Learning to learn has been extensively analysed in the scientific literature and has been described in various ways. Using a literature review approach, this article presents a theoretical analysis on how the concept of learning to learn is understood in general music education, with the aim of discovering the specifics of learning to learn in this context. The role of planning, collaboration, reflection, and self-assessment in music education has also been identified in the study.

Dramatic events related to the Russian-Ukrainian war shook up not only Ukraine, but the entire civilized world. The war exacerbated not only economic, political, and demographic problems, but also defined as priority tasks the physical rescue of a person, the preservation of his life and health, comprehensive assistance in migration, arranging life and living in critical conditions, overcoming fear and hopelessness. Russia broke all the rules of life on the planet and distinguished itself by atrocities, murders of civilians, looting, and rape. Ukrainians, who are faced with the challenges of life and death today, are looking for ways to preserve not only their territories, above all, their language, culture, education, and authenticity. Our desire for global and European values requires not only the support of the Armed Forces, but each person in his place to work to the best of his ability to support public life in all its dimensions. Education also requires new approaches to content, values, psychological and pedagogical principles, organizational forms, and tools to overcome the challenges facing Ukraine today. In the center of attention of the higher school now is the student whose life, in addition to traditional challenges, has been complicated by war, uncertainty about the future, confusion, despair, a difficult economic situation, the lack of an opportunity to provide basic needs, distance learning, etc. All this, as evidenced by our survey of students of higher education, often leads to maladaptation, depressive states, disappointment, apathy, anxiety, etc. Therefore, the stated situation actualizes the problem of finding optimal ways of adaptation of higher education students in crisis conditions, which will be outlined in our research. In order to identify the peculiarities of students` adaptation to crisis conditions, we conducted a study related to various aspects of their life. It included the possibility to receive psychological support during a crisis period. It is associated with a pandemic and war; awareness and understanding of external and internal factors of crisis conditions that influence student life; the process of adaptation to distance learning in crisis conditions; elucidation of the reasons  that negatively  influence/influenced the distance learning process in crisis conditions; determining positive  potential of distance learning in crisis conditions; evaluation by  students of educational process effectiveness in crisis conditions.
