Authors: Karabin Tetyana Oleksandrivna , Bilash Oleksandr , Fridmanskyy Roman , Tymchak Vasyl
Published: August 2021

The obligations assumed by the Ukrainian state by ratifying the association agreement between Ukraine and the European Union have become a reference point for transformations taking place in various spheres of public life, including local self-government. The article analyzes Ukraine's compliance with EU requirements regarding local self-government organisation, achievements in this field, and determining the prospects for reform. The analysis is grouped into four blocks: implementation of administrative and territorial reform; budget decentralisation; optimization of the organization of local public authorities (executive bodies formation of regional (oblast) and district (rayon) councils, the establishment of prefectures); land reform (transfer of land management to communities). The powers of local self-government bodies and state bodies were transformed in implementing municipal, territorial, fiscal and land reforms. However, further reforms are impossible without amendments to the Constitution of Ukraine (regarding the decentralisation of power), the adoption of new legislative acts (on the principles of the administrative-territorial structure of Ukraine, on prefectures), as well as amendments to some existing ones (on local self-government, etc.).

Published: August 2021

Küresel ısınmanın ve iklim değişikliğinin canlılara verdiği zarar artık tartışılmaz bir gerçektir ve dünyadaki en ciddi tehlikelerden birisi haline gelmiştir. CO2, insan kaynaklı başlıca sera gazıdır ve CO2 yoğunluğundaki artış esas olarak fosil yakıt tüketiminden kaynaklanmaktadır. İklim değişikliği tehdidiyle karşı karşıya kalındığında, CO2 emisyonlarını azaltma ve düşük karbonlu kalkınma arayışı kaçınılmaz hale gelmiştir. CO2 emisyonlarını azaltmak için emisyon ticaret sistemleri, emisyon standartları, karbon vergisi ve enerji vergisini içeren çok sayıda politika yöntemi uygulanmaktadır. Bu yöntemler arasında, belirli bir azaltım hedefine ulaşmada maliyet etkin bir araç olan karbon vergisi, ekonomistler ve uluslararası kuruluşlar tarafından şiddetle tavsiye edilmektedir. Bu çalışmada, çevresel sorunların önlenmesi konusunda karbon vergisi ile ilgili literatürde yapılan çalışmalar incelenmiştir. Ülkemizdeki sektörlere göre sera gazı emisyonları ve emisyon miktarları araştırılmıştır. Çevresel sorunların önlenmesi için etkin olarak kullanılabilecek karbon vergisi ve karbon vergisinin rolü araştırılmıştır.
Metinsel Serilerin İzleri: Susuz Yazın Diyalojik Düzlemde Dışavurum ve Alımlamaları

Tüm bir kültür tarihi için anahtar bir olgu olarak varlığını zamansal doğrunun başlangıcına yerleştirebilecek bir kavram olan uyarlama, anlamın tekil bir merkezden kaynak bulması ya da diğer bir deyişle anlamın tekil bir gösterene bağlanması anlayışından tözü itibariyle kaçmakta, kategorize edilerek sınıflandırılmaya ve adlandırılmaya direnç göstermektedir. Batı metafiziğinin karşıtlıklara dayalı anlamlandırma pratiklerine dayanan bir perspektifte uyarlama, gerçekliğe ve anlama ilişkin “tekil” merkezi kaydırdığı için orijinalin karşısına yerleştirilerek pejoratif değerlerle kuşatılmaktadır. Ancak Yapısalcılık sonrası anlam incelemelerinde gelinen metinlerarası bağlam ile birlikte uyarlama çalışmalarına ilişkin yönelim, orijinal eser ile kurulan “sadakat” ilişkisini dönüştürmekte ve uyarlama metinleri kaynak eserin vesayetinden kurtarmaktadır. Hiçbir metnin diğeri üzerinde ayrıcalık taşımadığı Metinlerarasılık ekseninde uyarlamalara yaklaşan bu çalışma, uyarlama metinlerin doğasından gelen çoğulluğu yadsımamakta, aksine bu metinsel çoğulluğun yarattığı/dönüştürdüğü anlam katmanlarına dikkat çekmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Bu doğrultuda çalışmada Necati Cumalı’nın 1960 tarihli uzun hikâyesi olan Susuz Yaz ile onun 1963 ve 1973 tarihli aynı isimli film uyarlamaları, içerdikleri diyalojik etkileşimler bağlamında incelenmektedir.

Published: August 2021

This article studies one of the components of the history of modernization processes in the countries of South-Eastern Europe in the latter half of the 19th century – the early 20th century – military modernization. The purpose of research is to analyze the role of foreign military assistance in formation of military forces of Romania, Serbia, Bulgaria, Montenegro, Albania and Greece. Separate directions of military assistance provided to the countries of South-Eastern Europe in the form of military missions, training of officers in Europe, arms export and other aspects are disclosed. One of the markers of military development during the period in question was the military instructor activity of the developed European countries in the framework of military modernization of possible military allies in these countries. The lower limit of research is the Bosnian crisis in 1908 caused by annexation of Bosnia and Herzegovina by Austria-Hungary. The conflict was the reason of rapid militarization of the region. Military missions from the countries of Europe began their activity in Greece, Montenegro, Turkey. Thousands of officers from Balkan army studied in military establishments of Europe. The top limit of the research is the First world war І 1914-1918. The obvious success was attained with modernization of the armed forces of allies by military missions from Germany in Turkey and from France in Romania in that time. The work deals with the process of military modernization, i.e. the activities of military instructor missions of the leading European countries during the interwar period. The time interval of the study ranges within 1908-1918. This was the period marked by modernization of new national armies in Eastern Europe. Military missions played an important role in this complex process. The comparison of the results of transformations provides for better understanding of the regional specifics and concrete results of this form of military modernization of armed forces during the twenty-year interwar period. The method for comparing variations of military modernization of armies of Oriental countries occurring at the turn of the 20th centuries and reorganization of military forces of the countries of South-Eastern Europe is used. This method instantiates results, consequences, failures and success of military modernization. The research is relevant for studying modern processes of military modernization.

Published: August 2021

Hospitality industry plays a main role and has become a major sector in Malaysia’s economy. However, there are some challenges in the hospitality industry such as employee turnover which could have various consequences to organizations. The purpose of this research is to investigate the factors affecting employee turnover intention, either directly or indirectly. Previous studies have suggested that employee turnover intention could be affected by factors such as leadership, motivation, communication, work environment and infrastructure both directly and indirectly. Employee innovation and creativity as a mediating factor could also affect its relationship with turnover intention of employees. The research design for this study was quantitative research method using questionnaires as the data collection method. Purposive sampling was used to sample 152 hotel employees within the West of Malaysia. Structural Equation Modelling was used to analyze the data using SmartPLS software. Results indicated that leadership, motivation, communication, and work environment and infrastructure had significant relationship with employee innovation and creativity. Apart from that, leadership, motivation and communication also have significant relationship with the employee turnover intention. Turnover is a major issue within companies not only for the company’s sustainability, but also for the health and wellbeing of their employees. As an implication, organizations should understand that their leadership characteristic and environment has a tremendous impact to burnout and employee performance.
Threshold Compare and Load Balancing Algorithm to for Resource Optimization in a Green Cloud
Authors: Shahapure Nagamani H , Rekha P.M. , Poornima N.
Published: August 2021

The reduction in the consumption of energy by the cloud data centers is called as green cloud. Green cloud also helps in restraining the waste disposed to the environment. With the increasing demand in cloud computing, there has been an increase in the energy consumption. Green cloud can be achieved by server consolidation and proper load balancing techniques using virtual machine (VM) migration. It is a feature provided by virtualization. The virtual machines are transferred from one host to another. The overhead associated with migration is performance degradation. This can be overcome by proper load balancing techniques. This helps to curtail the number of VM migrations as well as the energy consumption. In this paper, a technique called as threshold compare and load balance algorithm (TCLBA) is proposed for optimization of the resources at the cloud provider. Two types of threshold are defined for load balancing, namely the lower and upper threshold. This algorithm works on the principle of shifting the load from a server if the load is above the upper threshold or shifting to the server if its load is below the lower threshold. The load is balanced by migrating the VMs. The workload is consolidated to smaller number of hosts such that the remaining hosts are shut down. This method solves the purpose of effective utilization of available resources with lesser energy consumption.

Published: August 2021

La formación humanística de los estudiantes universitarios no solo es una exigencia académica o una concepción de aprendizaje asociada al crecimiento cognitivo, es también una prioridad de formación afectiva y social.

Legitimar esta idea, implica primero: ser conscientes de las potencialidades desarrolladoras de la lectura literaria en el pregrado y segundo: concebir la implementación de su práctica como un recurso educativo orientado al aprendizaje de las lenguas materna y extranjera.

Al asumir que la lectura literaria es determinante en el proceso de formación del estudiante universitario, se confirma que su práctica no solo deberá estar asociada a los aprendizajes curriculares o profesionales, sino que además llega a ser una vía de socialización, en tanto, se convierte en un espacio para el desarrollo integral de la personalidad. En este sentido, la universidad se identifica como una comunidad lectora, cuyos significados y sentidos de la lectura literaria están mediados por prácticas sociales e intercambios comunicativos, que giran alrededor de la producción, recepción y uso social de los textos literarios en función del conocimiento plural.

Authors: Torres Zerquera. Leticia del Carmen , Bravo López Gisela , Vera Olivera Yoelky , Pérez Egües Miguel Alejandro
Published: August 2021

Una de las principales problemáticas que tiene lugar en los grupos de adolescentes es el rechazo social, que de no detectarse y atenderse a tiempo implica efectos negativos en el desarrollo socioemocional de los educandos, pues son excluidos de los aprendizajes que tienen lugar con los compañeros. Se realizó una revisión teórica de concepciones acerca del tema, sus causas, manifestaciones y consecuencias, así como las variables personales, familiares, escolares y sociales que influyen en este fenómeno desde el contexto internacional y nacional. Fueron empleados métodos teóricos que permitieron llegar a generalizaciones sobre los principales hallazgos en cuanto al objeto de revisión. Se constató que existen insuficiencias en relación a la profundización de la temática en el continente americano y la mayoría de las investigaciones consultadas se realizan en el nivel primario. El objetivo del trabajo consistió en profundizar desde el punto de vista teórico en el rechazo social en grupos de adolescentes y los elementos que intervienen en su atención por el docente, lo que evidenció la necesidad de un mayor énfasis desde la perspectiva psicopedagógica; lo novedoso del estudio radica en que a partir del análisis teórico se ofrecen pautas psicopedagógicas de cómo el docente puede atender este fenómeno.

Authors: Sankar A. Siva , Ravi Kumar K. Nirmal
Published: August 2021

The present study has aimed at analyzing the technical and scale efficiencies of credit utilization by the farmer-borrowers in Chittoor district of Andhra Pradesh, India. DEA approach was followed to analyze the credit utilization efficiency and to analyze the factors influencing the credit utilization efficiency, log-linear regression analysis was attempted. DEA analysis revealed that, the number of farmers operating at CRS are more in number in marginal farms (40%) followed by other (35%) and small (17.5%) farms. Regarding the number of farmers operating at VRS, small farmers dominate the scenario with 72.5 per cent followed by other (67.5%) and marginal (42.5%) farmers. With reference to scale efficiency, marginal farmers are in majority (52.5%) followed by other (47.5%) and small (25%) farmers. At the pooled level, 26.7 per cent of the farmers are being operated at CRS, 63 per cent at VRS and 32.5 per cent of the farmers are either performed at the optimum scale or were close to the optimum scale (farms having scale efficiency values equal to or more than 0.90). Nearly 58, 15 and 28 percents of the farmers in the marginal farms category were found operating in the region of increasing, decreasing and constant returns respectively. Compared to marginal farmers category, there are less number of farmers operating at CRS both in small farmers category (15%) and other farmers category (22.5%). At the pooled level, only 5 per cent of the farmers are operating at DRS, majority of the farmers (73%) are operating at IRS and only 22 per cent of the farmers are operating at CRS indicating efficient utilization of credit. The log-linear regression model fitted to analyze the major determinants of credit utilization (technical) efficiency of farmer-borrowers revealed that, the three variables viz., cost of cultivation and family expenditure (both negatively influencing at 1% significant level) and family income (positively influencing at 1% significant level) are the major determinants of credit utilization efficiency across all the selected farmers categories and at pooled level. The analysis further indicate that, escalation in the cost of cultivation of crop enterprises in the region, rise in family expenditure and prior indebtedness of the farmers are showing adverse influence on the credit utilization efficiency of the farmer-borrowers.

In recent years, activated carbon has attracted attention among researchers due to its special properties such as high porosity, highly adsorption and low cost. In this research, activated carbon has been successfully produced from the coconut shell by using the microwave irradiation method where zinc chloride (ZnCl2), phosphoric acid (H3PO4) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) were implemented as the activating agents. The results showed that phosphoric acid has the most significant effect on the synthesized activated carbon properties. The optimum parameter for the power of microwave irradiation used was 380 W, impregnation ratio of activating agent to char was 3:1 for phosphoric acid, 2:1 for sodium hydroxide, and for 1:1 zinc chloride while concentration of each activating agents was 0.5 M with 10 minutes of activation time. All samples then were characterized by using, Moisture meter, FTIR-ATR, XRD and TGA in order to determine the functional groups, composition and element and weight loss of the activated carbon. This research could benefit the environment by recycling the agriculture waste into a new useful material as well as to keep the environment safe from pollution.
Médecine et philosophie au cœur du soin
Authors: Benaroyo Lazare
Published: August 2021

À l’heure où la pratique de la médecine est soumise à des impératifs techniques et biopolitiques qui suscitent une (bio)éthique défensive, il est essentiel de revivifier les dimensions éthiques du soin au cœur même de la clinique, pour redonner sens à la responsabilité morale qui l’habite. Cette contribution cherche à relever ce défi en puisant aux ressources anthropologiques, épistémologiques et éthiques des travaux de Viktor von Weizsäcker, de Georges Canguilhem, de Paul Ricœur et d’Emmanuel Lévinas, dont les recherches ont ouvert, dès le milieu du XXe siècle, la voie d’une anthropologie clinique qui pose les jalons d’une éthique de responsabilité propre à l’exercice de la médecine. À la lumière de ces recherches, où médecine et philosophie se nourrissent mutuellement, cette étude propose une éthique du soin qui contribue à maintenir vivants les liens unissant éthique et médecine.

por numerosos padres y también por muchas madres. En ellas se ha solicitado
la anulación de ciertas partes del desarrollo reglamentario de las asignaturas,
y/o el reconocimiento de un hipotético derecho a la objeción de conciencia
respecto a las mismas. Dado que estas impugnaciones se refieren a aspectos relacionados
con la comprensión y aplicación del principio de igualdad de mujeres y
hombres, como la noción de género, se ha hecho necesario analizar las sentencias
que los resuelven. Y a ofrecer este análisis se dirige el siguiente trabajo.

Diagnostics of the ability to understand mathematical texts by school graduates
Authors: Kudryashova Tatiana Georgievna , Shurup Andrey Sergeevich
Published: August 2021

The ability to understand the text plays a leading role among the basic educational competencies of students. In this paper the technology for diagnosing the ability to understand mathematical texts by school graduates is presented. The discussed technology is built in accordance with the requirements of ontological diagnostics, which makes the diagnostic result unambiguously interpreted, that is, the tools used in this diagnosis meet the validity requirement. Ontological diagnostics is based on the method of “dialectical deduction” (Hegel’s method), which assumes the choice of an initial predicate for its sequential morphologization with a specific content. In the work, the concept of ontological diagnostics is being clarified as a methodological basis for constructing a conceptual and technological scheme for diagnosing the ability to understand mathematical texts. The construction of a system of postulates that provide the formation of a conceptual and technological scheme of the considered diagnostics is discussed. On the basis of this study, a list of abilities was obtained that provide an adequate understanding of mathematical texts by respondents. As a result, the proposed diagnostics makes it possible to reveal the presence or absence of the certain abilities to understand mathematical texts from this list: the ability to choose a basic predicate corresponding to the proposed subject of thought, i. e. ego; the ability to construct complex predicates by the addition and refinement method based on the selected basic predicates; ability to construct the content of the predicate; the ability to read the content of the predicate and the ability to compare the content of the predicate with ego for their identity. A brief description of the conceptual-technological scheme of the regarded diagnostics is given, and a specific example of the constructed technology application is considered for diagnosing the ability to understand mathematical texts by school graduates.

In this research, we present a new method for preparation of graphene from waste zinc carbon battery (ZCB) electrodes using electrochemically exfoliation via a intercalating of sulfate ions into the graphitic layers at different D.C. voltages and optimized conditions (i.e., electrolyte medium and applied voltage). The synthesized graphene was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy and Scanning/Transmission electron microcopy (SEM/TEM). The synthesized graphene has been used as the adsorbents for efficient removal of methylene blue (MB) as a cationic dye from aqueous solutions to test their qualities. Results shown that the equilibrium adsorption capacity (qe) of prepared graphene samples are from 92.32 mg.g-1 to 99.73 mg.g-1 which are extremly higher than that of the pristine waste graphite electrode (5.03 mg.g-1) or powdered  waste electrode graphite (40.05 mg.g-1). These obtaned results indicated that the graphene can be produced from waste graphite electrodes by electrochemical method, which can be considered as an eco-friendly method not only for production of quality graphene but also for reuse of waste graphite electrodes.

The purpose of this work is to study the effect of some precipitation conditions on the luminescent properties of manganese-doped zinc silicate when synthesized in a new approach - impregnated precipitation method. The samples are characterized by thermal analysis, infrared IR, luminescent spectrum (PL), X-ray diffraction spectrum and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The results showed that manganese - doped zinc silicate luminescent material prepared by the impregnated precipitation method has higher luminescence than the traditional co-precipitation method. Samples with the highest luminescent properties were synthesized under the following conditions: concentration of Zn (CH3COO)2 is 1M, the precipitate aging time of 20 minutes, the washed filtered precipitate, impregnated with Mn2+ with a content of 1.5 % mol compared to the total metal, dried at 80 °C and then heat at 900 0C for 45 minutes. The obtained product is single-phase zinc silicate with composition of Zn1,97Mn0,03SiO4, rhombic structure with most particles varying in size of 0.3 - 0.5 µm, emitting green light with λmax = 525 nm when excited by UV rays with wavelength of 254 nm. Forming a single-phase Zn2SiO4 crystal at 900 0C for 45 minutes allowed to reduce the energy required for the sintering process compared with the solid - phase reaction method.

Porous LaFeO3 were synthesised by nanocasting method using mesoporous silica (SBA-15) as a hard template and used as a visible-light-driven photocatalyst. The as-synthesised LaFeO3 photocatalyst were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), N2 adsorption-desorption, and Ultraviolet–Visible Diffuse Reflectance Spectroscopy (UV-vis DRS). The photo-Fenton catalytic activities of porous LaFeO3 were investigated for the degradation of oily-containing wastewater. The results showed that porous LaFeO3 had better photo-Fenton catalytic activity under visilbe light irradiation than pure LaFeO3. The remarkable improvement photo-Fenton catalytic activity of porous LaFeO3 material could be attributed to the synergistic effect of adsorption and visible light photo-Fenton processes thanks to its porous structure.
Forensic Engineering Analysis: Smoke Transport To Upper Floors During 1980 MGM Grand Hotel Fire
Authors: Meckler Milton
Published: August 2021

The fire began at 7 A.M. When it was over four hours later, 84 people were dead or dying and another 591 people were injured-mostly from smoke related injuries. The Las Vegas MGM Grand Hotel fire had become one of the worst fire tragedies in U.S. history. It is now generally accepted that some 80 percent of fire deaths result from smoke inhalation. Nearly two-thirds of the deaths occur away from the fire room. Victims can become incapacitated by heat, visible smoke, and/or toxic species within fire generated hot gases long before death from effects of one or more known lethal combinations of combustion products (i.e., such as oxygen depletion or temperature). The American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) defines smoke as a complex mixture of airborne liquid, solid particulates and gas evolved under pyrolysis or combustion. Highly dependent on combustion conditions, its toxicity often cannot be attributed directly to inhalation of one or more specific chemicals from
Microcomputers In The Forensic Engineering Office

Published: August 2021

Microcomputers, or personal computers, were virtually unknown a decade ago. Today they are relatively inexpensive and widely found in schools, banks, offices, industries and homes. This paper deals with the application of general purpose digital microcomputers in the forensic engineering office. The objective of the presentation is to share some ideas about ways in which the author is using microcomputers in his forensic engineering practice. In doing so, there is no intent to promote any particular brand of microcomputer or microcomputer software but is solely for the purpose of sharing ideas that may help other forensic engineers become more efficient and productive in their work. Microcomputer systems possess certain characteristics that make them highly desirable tools. They are extremely fast, accurate, capable of remembering thousands of items of information at a time, versatile, flexible, and ideal at performing repetitive types of operations. The author has been using co
If Man Were Meant To Fly

Lets Fly (a fictitious name) was a device built into a permanent building structure, solely for entertainment. A description of the facility, with diagrams, sufficient to explain the function is presented in the next section of the paper. For a fee, patrons, most of them, were made to float on a vertically rising column of air in a totally enclosed chamber. Patrons were interested members of the public who just walked in off the street. The effect produced was similar to sky diving, without the fear of a chute not opening or a hard landing on the ground. The installation is no longer in operation, but was operated under various managements, for a few years in a resort town in a western state. It has been reported that two other units exist, or have existed, one in Canada and one in the mid-west. There have been numerous injuries to users of Lets Fly reported. The number as of about 1986 was over 400. Many, but not all, of the injuries involved broken bones, usually arms,

This low power consumption microcontroller is able to execute instructions with a maximum speed of 16MIPS at a frequency of 16MHz and the ATmega8 is tested to work at a voltage between 4.5 - 5.5 V. Test results of motor drivers 1 and 2 working at a voltage of 4.99 prove that the driver circuit has worked according to its function, namely controlling the motor in 2 directions according to the input given. Motor speed can be controlled by adjusting the motor voltage, the higher the voltage, the faster the motor rotates. The voltage drop will slow down the motor to the desired speed, The sensor response if it encounters an obstacle in front of the wheelchair will stop 10 cm before hitting the object. Then the load test is added gradually from 0 to 451 grams. The wheelchair will appear to be starting to slow down at its maximum weight, making it less responsive to commands. After testing, it can be concluded that the tool works as desired, namely controlling the motion of the wheelchair with voice commands and it can be declared successful although there are still some weaknesses and shortcomings that must be improved.

To date, there are limited data regarding manifestations of new coronavirus infection in infants born of SARS-CoV-2 infected mothers, so the aim of this study is to investigate somatic and metabolic status of newborn infants born to mothers diagnosed with COVID-19. The investigation was carried out on the bases of Laboratory Diagnostic Department of Samara Regional Clinical Hospital named after V.D. Seredavin and the Department of Fundamental and Clinical Biochemistry with Laboratory Diagnostics of Samara State Medical University. Under observation were 85 newborns, including 35 born of healthy mothers and 50 born of COVID-19 mothers.The somatic status of all newborns was assessed using the Apgar scale at the 1st and 5th minutes after birth. Also all newborns had general and biochemical blood tests and newborns from mothers with COVID-19 were tested for the presence of SARS-CoV-2 RNA in oral and nasopharyngeal swabs. Thus, the study of somatic status revealed that of 50 neonates from women infected with COVID-19, only 18% were practically healthy, the rest had signs of prematurity, hypotrophy, perinatal CNS damage, diabetic fetopathy, pulmonary atelectasis, delayed intrauterine development, asphyxia. The metabolic state is characterised by decreased haemoglobin and platelets, increased concentration of total protein, including C-reactive protein, high transaminase activity, decreased sodium and chloride content. These parameters of general and biochemical blood tests can be considered as indicators for the evaluation of the condition of newborns from mothers with COVID-19.
