Published: October 2022

In this paper, the main radiative processes, for the first time, are considered within the framework of continuum physics, where the motion of charged particles occurs in a continuous resisting medium.Within the analysis, new characteristics of the interaction of ions with matter are introduced. The proposed formalism also uses some results of modern corpuscular theory. It allows giving a physically clear space-time description of the processes and phenomena analyzed in this paper. Further in this paper, the authors have estimated, with a high degree of accuracy, the ranges of ions in various materials; constructed their energy loss profiles; determined the mean free path and mean free time of the charged particles in matter, and proposed the formalism for analyzing the radiative change in the physical properties of solids. For the first time, the physical nature of the main characteristic of the radiation resistance of materials, i.e., the threshold displacement energy, has been studied in detail, and the formula for its calculation has been derived by the authors.

Authors:   National Transport University, Kyiv, Ukraine, Kot Dmytro
Published: October 2022

Introduction. The article examines the testing method of monolithic slabs of bridges deck with permanent reinforced concrete formwork [1] using the method of optical-digital speckle-correlation of images [2]. Problem statement. A promising direction in cast-in-situ bridge construction is using of various types of permanent formwork during slab concreting. However, using of such formworks has not been studied much till today. Therefore, it is advisable to conduct a test of full-scale models of slabs. In domestic practice, mechanical devices, strain gauges, optical microscopes, etc. are used during laboratory studies and field tests of building structures to measure relative deformations and movements, as well as to visually observe the formation and development of cracks. All these devices require constant checking and maintenance and it is not always possible to do this. However, for the needs of laboratory tests with the method of optical-digital speckle correlation of images, a digital image of the object at different load levels is mostly sufficient. It is only necessary to choose the right optics according to the experimental area and ensure sufficient lighting. Purpose. The purpose of the work was in experimentally determining of the expediency of using the optical-digital speckle-correlation method of images in the models testing. Metods of study. According to the results of exploratory researches, it is proposed to apply the method of optical-digital speckle correlation of images. Results. The expediency of using the method of optical-digital speckle-correlation of images in the investigation of bridges deck models has been established. Conclusions. Using the method of optical-digital speckle-correlation of images makes possible to investigate the change of relative deformations and the movement of individual points or areas during the study of concrete surfaces. This, in turn, allows to investigate the places and nature of the formation of cracks and enables practical use - during the examination of existing structures, it is possible to record the places of future cracks and the relative deformations of individual areas.

ntroduction. Road traffic accidents (hereinafter — traffic accidents) are a serious problem that affects the lives and health of the younger generation, as according to statistics, young people under the age of 35 are most often injured and killed in traffic accidents. Today, in Ukraine, the level of fatalities and injuries due to traffic accidents is quite high, and the level of traffic safety remains extremely low. In the UK, traffic accidents are the leading cause of death for people aged from 5 to 34 and account for more than 15% of fatalities in this age group. Ukraine is one of the leaders among the European countries in terms of specific accident rates and the consequences of road accidents. On average, in EU member states there are 5 percent of traffic fatalities per 100,000 inhabitants, while in Ukraine this indicator is 8.22 percent of people (according to 2019 statistical data). Problem statement. The main cause of accidents with serious consequences and deaths is overspeeding. Purpose. Therefore, it is extremely important to evaluate the effectiveness of automatic photo and video registration of traffic violations that affect the severity of the consequences of traffic accidents. Materials and methods. Empirical methods of scientific research are used to analyze the impact of automatic photo and video registration systems of traffic violations. Results. The article presents a brief diagnosis of accidents with fatalities and/or injuries due to speeding and the main factors influencing speeding by drivers. Also the impact of the system of automatic photo-video fixation of traffic violations on reducing the level of accidents and the experience of other countries in the implementation of similar systems. Conclusions. Using the empirical methods of scientific research it is proved that automatic photo and video registration systems prevent the occurrence of traffic accidents with serious consequences. This is confirmed by comparing the results before and after the installation of automatic photo and video registration systems.

Authors: Revu Subhashini , Banoth Kalpana , Kumari Somu Sharmila
Published: October 2022

Background Gestational Diabetes Mellitus [GDM] is dened as Carbohydrate intolerance with
recognition or onset during pregnancy and resolves postpartum. Prevalence of GDM in India varies from
3.8 - 21% with different demography and diagnostic methods used. As early diagnosis and control of maternal hyperglycaemia
plays a vital role in prevention of adverse outcomes, universal screening is almost mandatory due to high prevalence, we need
a simple economical, feasible test with higher sensitivity to diagnose GDM. Aim To compare diagnostic accuracy of two nonfasting tests DIPSI & HBAIC and fasting WHO criteria for diagnosis of GDM. Objectives To compare DIPSI with WHO criteria as
standard. To compare HBA1C with WHO criteria as standard Results: This study was done on 100 ANC cases to compare
diagnostic accuracy of DIPSI & HBAIC with fasting World Health Organization Glucose Tolerance Test. Mean age of
participants was 27.18±4.60 years. 39% patients were in age group of 21 to 25 years and 34% patients were in age group of 26 to
30 years. Majority (45%) of the patients were in gestational age of 26 to 30 weeks. In this study, gestational diabetes mellitus was
diagnosed in 47 (47%) patients according to WHO GTT, in 48 (48%) patients according to DIPSI and in 34 (34%) patients
according to Glycated Haemoglobin. Mean gestational age of patients during diagnosis of gestational diabetes mellitus was
29.21±2.84 weeks by DIPSI, 28.83±2.82 weeks by WHO GTT and 29.29±3.15 weeks by Glycated Haemoglobin. Mean blood
sugar parameters of gestational diabetes mellitus women were 174.96±16.58 mg/dl by DIPSI, 173.21±17.58 mg/dl by WHO
GTT and 9.41±1.91 gm% by Glycated Haemoglobin. The sensitivity of DIPSI with regard to WHO GTT was 89.36%, specicity
88.68%, positive predictive value 87.50%, negative predictive value 90.38%, diagnostic accuracy 89.00% and chi square value
of 60.78. These values convey that DIPSI is as good as gold standard WHO GTT criteria. The sensitivity of Glycated
Haemoglobin with regard to WHO GTT was 51.06%, specicity 81.13%, positive predictive value 70.59%, negative predictive
value 65.15%, diagnostic accuracy 67.00% and chi square value of 11.51. These values convey that Glycated Haemoglobin is
not as good as gold standard WHO GTT. Conclusions: Based on ndings from this study it can be concluded that DIPSI is
equally as good as World Health Organization Glucose Tolerance Test criteria in diagnosing gestational diabetes mellitus in
antenatal women of south India. Since DIPSI does not require fasting it is more feasible than World Health Organization
criteria. Glycated haemoglobin estimation is another test to detect diabetes mellitus which does not require fasting however its
results are not close to gold standard WHO criteria unlike DIPSI.

Published: October 2022

In about 30% of post term pregnancies, the foetuses develop a post maturity syndrome. post term
pregnancy is associated with increased risk of both intrauterine and postnatal death. Nowadays,
Doppler ultrasound velocimetry of uteroplacental umbilical and fetal vessels has become established method of antenatal
monitoring, allowing noninvasive assessment of fetal circulation. Circulatory changes, reected in certain fetal Doppler
waveforms, predict adverse perinatal outcome. Umbilical arteries are the common vessels assessed by Doppler ultrasound,
but recent studies conrm the efcacy of middle cerebral artery (MCA) Doppler assessment for detecting fetal compromise.
Objective- To predict outcome of pregnancies by using umbilical artery and Middle cerebral artery doppler ndings.
Methodology- Study group consists of 65 pregnant women with gestational age of 40-42 weeks and control groups include the
same number of pregnant women with gestational age of 36-40 weeks. All the antenatal women in the subject & control groups
were examined by routine ultrasound scan and Doppler subsequently.The peak systolic, end diastolic, and mean velocity were
recorded from these vessels, and Umbilical artery S/D ratio, PI and Middle Cerebral Artery PI and CPR were
calculated.Comparison of all variables were done using by·a software package Sensitivity, Specicity, Positive predictive
value, Negative predictive value of different arterial Doppler indices and cerebroplacental ratio (CPR) were evaluated. ResultNo statistical signicant difference was noted in UA S/D, UAPI, UARI, MCA S/D, MCAPI MCARI in pregnancy with normal and
adverse perinatal outcome. Only CPR showed signicant difference for predicting adverse perinatal outcome (p=0.001).
Conclusion- None of the Doppler indices except CPR is sensitive enough. Although CPR cut-off value of 1.335 assures the
obstetrician of fetal wellbeing, it's low specicity and high false positive results lead to unnecessary tests, undue concern and
unnecessary interference.

Introduction: Vitamin D deciency and insufciency have been associated with a variety of adverse
maternal and fetal outcomes, ranging from Gestational hypertension, preeclampsia, gestational
diabetes, preterm delivery, intrauterine growth restriction, and cesarean section. The study was done to determine whether
vitamin D deciency in pregnant women was associated with complications. Methods: In this prospective observational study,
vitamin D levels were estimated in 100 pregnant women from gestational age 32 to 40 weeks in a teaching hospital in Delhi,
India. All the subjects were further followed up for the appearance of pregnancy associated complications mostly focusing on
the appearance of Gestational Hypertension, Pre-eclampsia, Gestational Diabetes, IUGR, Preterm labour or landing up in
Caesarean section. Results: 84% had suboptimal vitamin D level i.e serum vitamin D < 30ng/ml. Common complications were
gestational hypertension (47%), caesarean section (47%) and gestational diabetes (41%). Signicantly low vitamin D levels
were found in women with obstetric complications as compared to controls with no complications. Also, signicant association
was found between suboptimal vitamin D levels and complications. Conclusion: The routine measurement of vitamin D in
pregnancy can be of great help in identifying patients at risk for development of these complications, early intervention and
prevention of occurrence of these complications. Cost effective and timely treatment can prevent the complications in expecting

Published: October 2022

Depending upon hemodynamic status and right ventricular dysfunction, In-hospital mortality of acute
pulmonary embolism ranging from 0 to 50%. By assessing right ventricular function, we can predict the
outcomes in patients with acute pulmonary embolism. In patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE), right ventricular (RV)
failure causes death due to a mismatch between RV systolic function and increased RV afterload. The aim of our study was to
know whether the ratio of tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE)to pulmonary arterial systolic pressure (PASP)
would predict adverse outcomes. This study was a retrospective analysis of a single Centre Pulmonary embolism register. After
the conrmation of PE, patients taken a formal transthoracic echocardiography within 48 hours were included in this study. A 7-
day composite outcome of death or hemodynamic deterioration was the primary end point of this study. The secondary
endpoints of this study were 7- and 30- day all-cause mortality. A total of 67 patients were included; 14 met the primary
composite outcome. In univariate analysis, the TAPSE/PASP was associated with our primary outcome [odds ratio = 0.027, 95%
condence interval (CI) 0.010–0.087; P < 0.0001], which was signicantly better than either TAPSE or PASP alone (P = 0.018 and
P < 0.0001, respectively). For predicting adverse outcome in PE, a TAPSE/PASP cut-off value of 0.4 was identied as the optimal
value. Echocardiographic ratio of tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion to pulmonary arterial systolic pressure is superior
in prediction of adverse outcome in acute PE. And also, it may improve risk stratication and identication of the patients that
will suffer short-term deterioration after acute PE.

Objectives: The study was conducted to evaluate the knowledge, attitudes, and opinions of male patients infected with the hepatitis B virus about their disease.

Methods: This descriptive study was conducted in a military hospital in Ankara between July 2016 – July 2017. The study population consisted of 244 male patients admitted to the Infectious Diseases Clinic of the hospital within one year. No sample selection was made, and 208 patients accepted to participate were included in the study. The research data were collected by a questionnaire form consisting of 28 questions prepared by the researchers in line with the literature. For statistical analysis, IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows. Version 22.0 program was used.

Results: Of the patients, 86.5% were single, 50% were primary school graduates, 65.4% were self-employed, and their mean age was 22.67±2.9. According to the data, 53.4% of the patients were HBeAg-negative, and 46.6% were HBeAg-positive chronic hepatitis B patients. Healthcare personnel was the information source for 51.9% of the patients, and 80.8% felt the need to get more information about their disease. 88.4% of the patients stated that hepatitis B disease could be transmitted through the bloodstream, and 80.7% of them stated that being vaccinated prevented them from being sick. 86.5% of the patients stated that the purpose of the treatment of hepatitis B disease was to prevent the progression of the disease.

Conclusions: According to the study’s results, we determined that the patients’ knowledge and attitudes about their diseases were insufficient.

Исследование посвящено проектированию траектории движения робота в ограниченном пространстве с использованием современных средств робототехники и сенсорных устройств. Цель исследования - обеспечение автономного движения мобильного робота по пути следования с препятствиями, с использованием алгоритмов движения, основанных на графах. Предварительно был проведен анализ существующих алгоритмов движения мобильных роботов, отражены их достоинства и недостатки. Для достижения цели была разработана структурная схема мобильного робота, которая демонстрирует связь контроллера с внешними устройствами сбора информации и управления движением. Получение сигналов и их предварительная обработка проведены бортовыми сенсорными устройствами. Предварительно обработанный сигнал передается с уровня аппаратной логики на верхний уровень контроллера. Для этого реализована информационная система, включающая прием сигналов от датчиков и их передачу на уровень контроллера. Разработан алгоритм построения траектории движения. Благодаря реализации алгоритма поиска кратчайшего пути на основе известной карты местности обеспечено точное следование мобильного робота к заданной конечной точке в условиях складского помещения. Вопрос навигации решен с помощью карты черных линий, которая формирует сеть возможных маршрутов. Результаты прошли тестирование в условиях инженерного полигона

This study is devoted to designing the trajectory of a robot in a confined space using modern robotics and sensor devices. The aim of the study is to provide autonomous movement of a mobile robot along the route with obstacles, using motion algorithms based on graphs. Previously, we carried out an analysis of existing algorithms for the movement of mobile robots and reflected their advantages and disadvantages. To achieve this goal, we developed a block diagram of a mobile robot, which demonstrates the connection of the controller with external devices for collecting information and controlling movement. We carried out reception of signals and their preliminary processing by on-board sensor devices. The preprocessed signal is transmitted from the hardware logic level to the upper level of the controller. To do this, we implemented an information system that includes receiving signals from sensors and transmitting them to the controller level. We developed an algorithm for constructing a motion trajectory. Thanks to the implementation of the shortest path search algorithm based on a well-known terrain map, the exact following of the mobile robot to a given endpoint in a warehouse environment is ensured. We solved the issue of navigation with the help of a map of black lines, which forms a network of possible routes. We tested the results in the conditions of an engineering landfill

Published: October 2022

Приведены результаты разработки программного расширения конфигурации для ПО, реализующего модули взаимодействия с различными типами приборов линейки ARINST. Многие аспекты функционала ПО должны быть настроены под задачи и нужды пользователя: как графические представления, так и режимы обработки данных. Для удобства работы пользователя необходимо предоставить возможность сохранения и восстановления заданной пользователем конфигурации ПО между рабочими сессиями и подключениями приборов ARINST в автоматическом режиме, а также в любой момент рабочей сессии по заданному пользователем пути. При этом для разрабатываемого ПО были установлены следующие требования: обеспечить автоматические сохранения и восстановление данных конфигурации ПО между рабочими сессиями и подключениями приборов ARINST, а также в любой момент рабочей сессии по заданному пользователем пути; разделить данные конфигурации по модулям взаимодействия; хранить данные конфигурации на машине пользователя в виде файлов; вне зависимости от операционной системы файлы конфигураций располагать в каталогах файловой системы, для доступа к которым на чтение и запись не требуются повышенные привилегии. Описаны формат данных конфигурации, система конфигурации и устройство менеджера конфигурации как в предыдущей, так и в текущей реализации. Определены направления развития разработанного модуля конфигурации

The article presents the results of the development of a configuration extension for the specialized software that implements interaction modules with different types of ARINST product line devices. Many aspects of the software functionality can be customized to suit user's tasks and needs: such as graphical representations and data processing modes. For convenience of a user it is necessary to provide a feature of automatic saving and restoring configuration of the software set by the user from one working session to another and from one connection of ARINST device to another, as well as at any moment of a work session using a user-defined path. At that the following requirements were set for the software under development: to provide automatic saving and restoring of software configuration data from one working session to another and from one connection of ARINST device to another, as well as at any moment of a work session using a user-defined path; to split configuration data according to interaction modules; to store configuration data on the user’s system in the form of files; to place configuration files in directories of a file system that do not require elevated privileges for read and write access regardless of the operating system. The format of configuration data, configuration system and the mechanism behind configuration manager in both previous and current implementations are described. The directions of development of the developed configuration module are defined

Published: October 2022

Diante do aumento da fiscalização ambiental e do volume de lodo gerado durante o tratamento de esgoto, concessionárias de saneamento têm buscado alternativas mais econômicas e eficientes para o desaguamento do lodo, visando à redução de custos e facilitando a destinação ambientalmente adequada. O leito de secagem com piso de blocos drenantes é uma modalidade de desaguamento natural, que inclui a fase de drenagem e secagem do lodo, e pode ser visto como alternativa promissora para sistemas de tratamento de esgoto de pequeno porte. Portanto, o presente trabalho analisou o desaguamento de lodo anaeróbio nas fases de drenagem e secagem, em leito piloto de piso de blocos drenantes em três períodos do ano distintos. O leito com piso de blocos drenantes mostrou-se eficiente na drenagem do lodo reduzindo mais de 65% do volume de lodo, após 24h do descarte, independentemente da concentração do lodo. Em relação à secagem, em todos os ensaios o lodo alcançou acima de 20% de ST em apenas 8 dias. As condições climáticas influenciaram a fase de secagem, principalmente a umidade relativa do ar e precipitação, propiciando em 22 dias de secagem valores de ST próximos a 30% em dois ensaios e acima de 60% para o ensaio realizado no inverno.
