Copernicus and Copernicans: Galileo, Kepler, Bruno
Authors: Çimen Ünsal
Published: September 2024

Copernicus claimed the Earth revolves around itself and the Sun. He also claimed that the universe was finite and that no intelligent life existed on other planets. Galileo and Kepler shared these claims; therefore, they deserve to be called Copernicans. But what about Giordano Bruno? He adopted Hermetic philosophy and opposed Copernicus’s mathematical (geometric) method; he also claimed, unlike Copernicus, that the universe was infinite and that there were intelligent life forms on other planets. So, can we define Bruno and those who thought like him as Copernicans? Ernan McMullin answers this question in the negative. In this paper, I will argue that the differences between Bruno and Copernicus mentioned by McMullin cannot be used as criteria for claiming that Bruno and others who thought like him were not Copernicans; instead, I argue that believing the Earth rotates around itself and the Sun should be considered sufficient to call someone a Copernican.
Krakowski ośrodek badań nad historią kultury na przełomie XIX i XX wieku
Authors: Stinia Maria
Published: September 2024

Kształtowanie historii kultury jako samodzielnej dyscypliny naukowej w Krakowie odbywało się na przełomie XIX i XX wieku. Naukowcy ośrodka krakowskiego pozostawali w ścisłym związku z dorobkiem myśli europejskiej, lecz ze względu na specyficzną sytuację społeczeństwa polskiego pozbawionego własnej państwowości musieli określić własne cele. W środowiskach historyków i historyków literatury skupiono się na dokumentowaniu dorobku cywilizacyjnego w zakresie najistotniejszych wówczas kwestii, za jakie uznano potwierdzenie ścisłego związku kultury polskiej z kulturą europejską, przypomnienie najważniejszych osiągnięć w zakresie literatury oraz dziejów instytucji oświatowych, a zwłaszcza uniwersytetów. Koncentrowano się więc na dorobku okresu odrodzenia oraz oświecenia. Pojawiły się również oryginalne koncepcje dziejów cywilizacji autorstwa Feliksa Konecznego. W efekcie badań i interdyscyplinarnej współpracy Akademii Umiejętności oraz Uniwersytetu Jagiellońskiego udało się powołać na tej uczelni pierwszą na ziemiach polskich katedrę historii kultury.

Published: September 2024

Floods are a problem of many countries on a global scale. In Türkiye, especially in the summer months, large floods occur in the Black Sea Region coastal belt. The number and the destructive power of experienced floods are increasing day by day. It is not possible to prevent the occurrence of floods. But it is possible to take the necessary measures to prevent it from turning into a disaster. Recently, susceptibility analyses have been carried out for floods and similar natural disasters and the results help decision-makers. Within the scope of this study, flood susceptibility analysis was carried out by using multiple geographical factors together in the Basin of Lake Ladik of Samsun Province in the Black Sea Region. In the study, Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP), Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Remote Sensing (RS) techniques were used, which are multi-criteria decision-making methods. In this context, flood susceptibility analysis of the basin was carried out by using nine (9) different geographical factors (slope, aspect, lithology, soil, basin size, land use, landforms, precipitation, and drainage density). As a result of the study, for floods, there were identified four (4) different levels as low, medium, high, and very high; and 36.77% of the basin was found to be low, 30.03% was medium, 11.43% was high and 21.77% was found to be sensitive to possible floods at a very high level. The results of the study are also important for decision-makers to make flood risk planning.

This phenomenology study is aimed to explore the phenomenon of parental stress due to professional workload in the light of experiences of headmistresses who are mothers and are working in Elementary schools of Faisalabad during academic year 2023-2024. Only those headmistresses were selected through purposive sampling who have children between the age of 0 to 12 years. Children at this age group need full attention of parents especially mothers for their holistic development. Eight participants were interviewed and asked questions to explore workload, experiences regarding parental stress and strategies to cope with parental stress. The data was analyzed through thematic analysis using NVivo 14. The participants revealed they have no coping strategy to balance workload and parental stress.
ENERGY OPTIMIZATION OF INDUSTRIAL PROCESSES THROUGH ADVANCED USE OF CONTROLLED ELECTRICAL DRIVES AND POWER ELECTRONICS
Authors:   University of Belgrade, School of Electrical Engineering, Serbia, Ristić Leposava
Published: September 2024

The paper investigates the role of advanced use of controlled electrical drives and power lectronics in optimizing energy consumption in industrial processes. These technologies are crucial for enhancing the efficiency, flexibility, and overall performance of industrial processes. The paper emphasizes the principle of minimizing energy losses as the basis of energy efficiency and discusses various strategies for achieving this goal. Variable speed drives (VSDs) are highlighted as essential components for regulating motor speed and torque according to specific application requirements. By adjusting the frequency and voltage supplied to the motor, VSDs ensure that the motor operates at its optimum efficiency point, thereby reducing power losses associated with motors operating at fixed speeds. Furthermore, the integration of power electronics and sophisticated control algorithms enables electrical drives to perform with exceptional precision and responsiveness, as well as to facilitate energy-saving strategies. The paper also discusses how power electronics devices can be employed to improve the power factor of industrial systems, ensuring more effective utilization of electrical power and reducing losses in the distribution network. Additionally, it highlights the role of advanced control systems and power electronics in managing peak loads efficiently, enabling industrial facilities to avoid costly demand charges and optimize energy usage during periods of high electricity prices. Integrating controlled electrical drives and power electronics with smart grid technologies enables demand response, grid interaction, and energy management strategies that contribute to overall energy efficiency and sustainability. The paper systematically analyzes the potential energy savings achievable through functional adjustment of drive components to meet technological requirements. It categorizes savings into two main groups: savings achievable through functional adjustment of drive components and savings at each individual component of the drive system. Selected examples are methodically discussed to illustrate these points.

The paper presents an analysis of operation of a three-phase active rectifier with control algorithm based on direct power control (DPC), representing the rectifier part of a frequency converter supplying an induction machine, with a control algorithm based on direct torque control (DTC). Dynamical model of such a drive is introduced, performance of which is analyzed based on simulations on the model, and then based on experimental results on the laboratory setup. The focus of the analysis conducted in the paper is monitoring the total harmonic distortion (THD) of the rectifier’s grid current in various operating modes of the drive, when supplied from a grid with voltage THD according to existing regulations. By analyzing the results obtained from testing the applied control algorithm of the active rectifier in the laboratory and simulations on the model, appropriate conclusions regarding the mutual influence of grid voltage and grid current of the grid converter within the frequency converter have been drawn. Additionally, this mutual influence has been analyzed in three more configurations of industrial drives with different grid side converters: employing a diode rectifier without a filter choke, utilizing a diode rectifier with a filter choke, and implementing an active rectifier with supplementary higher harmonic filtration.

The ease of use of new technologies most influences the decisions of users of different ages. The influence of age has a direct impact on a person's perception of the usefulness of information technology in short-term and long-term use. A generation is defined as a group of individuals identified based on the year of birth, age, characteristics, and life events that occur at their developmental stage. The emergence of new media technologies creates new habits and new cultures in media consumption, which has an impact on social, cultural, economic, and political aspects. This research was conducted using a descriptive quantitative method to understand what factors affect the attitude of using social media and television media in generation X in Tapos Village. The population in this study is generation X of Tapos Village. The research sample was 100 people. Sampling was done using purposive sampling and data analysis using SEM-PLS with Smart PLS. The results of this study show that there is no digital divide seen from several aspects, namely, monthly income, interest in media use and strong network ownership, they can still keep up with technological developments even though they have limited access.
METHODOLOGY FOR DETERMINING THE COEFFICIENTS OF AERODYNAMIC DRAG AND ROLLING RESISTANCE OF ROAD TRAIN TIRES IN COASTING MODE
Authors:   KAMAZ PTC, KARABTSEV Vladimir S. ,   Naberezhnye Chelny Institute of Kazan Federal University
Published: September 2024

To analyze the fuel balance and optimize the fuel efficiency indicators of wheeled vehicles (WVs) using mathematical models, developers require a large number of design parameters as input data. Among them are losses in the transmission, aerodynamic drag of the WVs and tire rolling resistance. Many methods are developed to investigate these parameters, both under bench test and road test conditions. Many of them are based on the analysis of decelerations in the process of WVs coasting in two or even three weight conditions. Therefore, in order to save time and money for the preparation and performance of studies on the assessment of resistance forces, a methodology is proposed which is based on the analysis of the results of WVs tests by the coasting method only in one weight state, at full mass.

“I am given a special task in my future ministry — it’s missionary activity, which attracted me from the days of my youth …”: Bishop Neophyte’s (Slednikov) missionary activity among the Old Believers of the Vologda province
Authors: Зяблицкий О.Н.
Published: September 2024

Статья посвящена одному из самых активных членов Вологодского братства во имя Всемилостивого Спаса — Николаю Николаевичу Следникову, впоследствии епископу Старобельскому Неофиту. По окончании Казанской духовной академии, подготавливавшей студентов к миссионерскому служению, Николай Следников в 1899 г. принял должность епархиального миссионера. На протяжении тринадцати лет, исполняя данное послушание, он не оставлял его даже после назначения на высокую должность настоятеля крупнейшего монастыря Вологодской епархии. Деятельность миссионера пришлась на время укрепления начал веротерпимости, в связи с чем анализируется миссионерское служение в епархии в контексте либерализации государственного законодательства о старообрядчестве. Особое внимание уделено роли епископа Вологодского Никона (Рождественского) в формировании личности миссионера и будущего иерарха.

This article is dedicated to one of the most active members of the Vologda Brotherhood in the name of the All-Merciful Savior — Nikolai Nikolaevich Slednikov, later Bishop Neophyte of Starobilsk. After graduating from the Kazan Theological Academy, which prepared students for missionary service, Nikolai Slednikov assumed the position of diocesan missionary in 1899. Fulfilling this assignment for thirteen years, he did not leave it even after being appointed to the high position of abbot at the largest monastery of the Vologda Diocese. The missionary’s activity came at a time of strengthening the principles of religious tolerance, in connection with which missionary service in the Diocese is analyzed in the context of state legislation’s liberalization on the issue of Old Believers. The article pays special attention to the role of Bishop Nikon (Rozhdestvensky) of Vologda in the formation of the missionary’s personality.
Campaign to confiscate church valuables and lawsuits against Orthodox clergy in 1922 as part of the final stage of the Russian Civil War
Authors: Петров И.В.
Published: September 2024

1922 год для истории России ознаменовал окончание Гражданской войны и образование Советского Союза. Одним из последних, если не сказать последним, противников большевистской власти была некогда самая большая поместная Православная Церковь. Голод в Поволжье 1921–1922 гг. и его ужасающие последствия вылились в организованную советскими властями кампанию по изъятию церковных ценностей. Процесс изъятия вызвал далеко не однозначную реакцию среди верующих, часто становился причинами эксцессов и столкновений между представителями комиссий по изъятию и вооруженных красноармейцев, с одной стороны, и защитниками церкви — с другой. Наиболее жестокий оборот события приняли в Шуе, Москве и Петрограде. Итогом произошедших столкновений стали показательные судебные процессы, с помощью которых власти решили обнажить проблему и показать населению, кто не желает оказывать помощь голодающим. Однако, вместо ожидаемого эффекта они получили сопротивление и неприятие. Статья основана на архивном материале и периодической печати.

1922 for the history of Russia marked the end of the Civil War and the formation of the Soviet Union. One of the last, if not the last, opponents of the Bolshevik regime was once the largest Local Orthodox Church. Famine in the Volga region of 1921–1922 and its horrifying consequences resulted in a campaign organized by the Soviet authorities to seize church valuables. The process of seizure caused a far from unambiguous reaction among believers, often became the causes of excesses and clashes between representatives of the commissions for the seizure and armed Red Army soldiers on the one hand, and the defenders of the church on the other. The most cruel turn of events took place in Shuya, Moscow and Petrograd. The clashes resulted in show trials, with the help of which the authorities decided to expose the problem and show the population who does not want to help the hungry. However, instead of the expected effect, they received resistance and rejection. The article is based on archival material and periodicals.
On Correspondence between Plot and Stylistic Topics in Church Slavonic and Polish Editions of the Kiev-Pechersk Paterikon
Authors: Башлыкова М.Е.
Published: September 2024

В статье предпринимается попытка исследования соотношения сюжетной и стилистической топики в редакциях Киево-Печерского патерика, созданных на церковнославянском и польском языках. Киево-Печерский патерик является первым памятником древнерусской патерикографии. Структурообразующую роль в его тексте играет сюжетная и стилистическая топика, восходящая к произведениям ранней византийской агиографии. С течением времени топика в разных редакциях менялась, все более выкристаллизовываясь. Единственной редакцией Киево-Печерского патерика, созданной на польском языке, был «Патерикон», составленный митрополитом Киевским Сильвестром Коссовым и напечатанный в типографии Киево-Печерской Лавры в 1635 г. Закономерен вопрос о сходстве и различии топики двух агиографических традиций, возникших в одном культурном пространстве и на основе единого образца. Исследование проводится на примере первого сюжетного топоса житий киево-печерских святых ― призвания в монастырь и пострижения ― и соответствующих ему стилистических формул.

In the article an attempt is made to study the correspondence between plot and stylistic topics in the versions of The Kiev-Pechersk Paterikon compiled in the Church Slavonic and Polish languages. The Kiev-Pechersk Paterikon is the first composition of ancient Russian patericography. The structure-forming role in the Paterikon’s text is played by the plot and stylistic topics, which go back to the works of early Byzantine hagiography. Over the time, the topics in different editions changed, becoming more and more crystallized. The only edition of The Kiev-Pechersk Paterikon in Polish was the Paterikon compiled by Sylvester Kossov, Metropolitan of Kyiv, and printed in the printing house of the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra in 1635. It is natural to ask about the similarities and differences between the topics of the two hagiographic traditions that arose in the same cultural space and on the basis of one model. The study is carried out using the example of the first plot topos of the lives of Kiev-Pechersk saints ― vocation to the monastery and tonsuring ― and the stylistic formulas corresponding to it.
The Monastery of St. Dmitry on the Sava

Published: September 2024

Находившаяся на северо-западной окраине Балкан Митровица в Средние века была местом столкновения влияний западного и восточного христианства. Возможно, здесь была епископская кафедра, созданная для св. Мефодия. Когда королевой Венгрии была дочь Ярослава Мудрого Анастасия (1046–1060), в Митровице построили храм св. Димитрия Солунского, при котором вскоре возник василианский монастырь, ставший крупным центром православия у славян. Здесь мирно проживали греческие, славянские и венгерские монахи, но подчинялась обитель Константинопольской патриархии. В связи с передачей монастыря лавре св. Феодосия венгерский король Бела III приказал сделать опись его имущества и владений, где упомянуто о поставках воска монастырю князьями юго-западной Руси. После 1204 г. положение православных в Венгерском королевстве заметно ухудшилось, что привело к уходу василиан из Митровицы и переходу монастыря в руки бенедиктинцев в 1344 г.

Situated on the north-western edge of the Balkans, Mitrovica was a place where influences between Western and Eastern Christianity would collide during the Middle Ages. Perhaps there was an episcopal see established for St. Methodius. During the reign of Anastasia, the daughter of Yaroslav the Wise and the Queen of Hungary (1046–1060), there was built the Church of St. Demetrius of Thessalonica in Mitrovica, and around this church a Basilian monastery was soon founded, that would soon become a major center for the spread of Orthodoxy among the Slavs. Greek, Slavic and Hungarian monks lived here peacefully, but the monastery was under the jurisdiction of the Patriarchate of Constantinople. When transferring the monastery to the Laura of St. Theodosius, the Hungarian King Bela III ordered to compile an inventory of its possessions and property, which mentioned supplies of wax to the monastery by the princes of southwestern Rus’. After 1204, the conditions of the Orthodox in the Kingdom of Hungary deteriorated significantly, which resulted in the Basilians’ withdrawal from Mitrovica and the monastery changed hands, transferring to Benedictines in 1344.

Published: September 2024

В статье предлагается рассмотреть сообщения древнерусских летописей о поездках русских митрополитов в Золотую Орду как источник сведений о золотоордынских правовых реалиях. Анализируется соответствующая информация летописных источников, которая также сравнивается с данными других средневековых памятников (историко-правовых документов, сообщений иностранных современников и т. п.). Автор приходит к выводу, что летописные сообщения о поездках русских митрополитов в Золотую Орду могут представлять значительный интерес и существенно расширить корпус свидетельств современников об этом государстве, в том числе о его государственной и правовой жизни.

The article presents analysis of passages of ancient Russian chronicles as a source of information about legal realities of the Golden Horde. This information is analyzed and compared with that from other medieval monuments (historical and legal documents, reports of foreign contemporaries, etc.) The conclusion is made that chronicle reports about the voyages of Russian metropolitans to the Golden Horde can be of great interest and substantially expand the corpus of their contemporaries’ evidences of the Golden Horde, its life as state and its law.

This study investigated the effectiveness of meme-based learning on Nigerian university students' engagement, motivation, and understanding of complex concepts. Using a survey design, the research involved 60 students from the Department of Educational Technology at Lagos State University of Education. A four-week meme-based learning intervention was implemented, incorporating multimedia learning, social learning, and gamification principles. The results showed significant positive effects of meme-based learning; 80% of students reported increased engagement with course material, 75% indicated higher motivation to learn complex concepts, 80% noted improved understanding of complex concepts, 90% found learning more enjoyable with memes and 75% perceived meme-based learning as more effective than traditional teaching methods. These findings suggest that meme-based learning can be a powerful tool for enhancing educational outcomes in Nigerian universities. However, the study also revealed that a small percentage of students did not benefit from or prefer this approach, highlighting the need for diverse teaching strategies. The research contributes to the growing body of literature on innovative pedagogical approaches in African contexts and demonstrates the potential of leveraging internet culture for educational purposes. It also underscores the importance of culturally relevant content in meme-based learning strategies.

This paper examines the case of organizing motor sports mega events, in the context of the statistical data on tourism, for the countries Singapore - Turkey - Malaysia and Korea in relation to Greece over a 25-year horizon. The selection of these countries was based on their special morphological and touristic characteristics and the fact that these countries, apart from Greece, have undertaken to hold such major motor sports events. The questions that arise from such a comparison and correlation are whether the organization of major motorsport events contributes to the development of tourism in the host country and if this is the case, what is the time horizon of their contribution and in what ways does it contribute to it concerning inbound tourist figures. The discussion of the above statistical data was based on the literature (Angus et al. 2007, Chartas, P., et al. 2010, Varvaressos, 2009, Fisher and Wakefield, 1998, Hunt and Bashaw, 1999, Mitoula, 2006, Weed and Bull, 1997, Gibson et al. 2003, etc.) and the processing of published statistical data, in order to draw conclusions about the contribution or not of motor sports to the annual tourist arrivals of each country. From the study, it appeared that the year countries organized motorsport events there was an increase in inbound tourism in a percentage of 22% on average, taking advantage of the motorsport event, mainly in terms of the country's international visibility and promotion, thus showing an increase in tourism in the years following the event as well. On the contrary, in Greece, despite having organized major sporting events (Olympic Games 2004), there is no statistical increase in tourist figures, except for the year 2013, which is also a research question. In conclusion, as can be seen from the available statistics, in addition to other methods for tourism development, the inclusion of motor sport events appears to contribute significantly to the increase in touristic arrivals. Concerning Greece in particular, the inclusion of such events in order to further stimulate country’s tourism, would be an important addition, especially if one considers the country's existing tourism industry and its geostrategic position.
