Published: February 2023

The Pakistani Himalayan glaciers are major component of freshwater environment. However, previous studies suggest that their existence is under direct of global warming. we estimated the glacier dynamics of Bazin, Chhongpher and Chongra glaciers in Astore Basin (Northwestern Himalaya) in terms of Equilibrium Line Altitude (ELA), snout variation position and statistical analysis of climate trends assessment between 2016 and 2021. A quaterly trend analysis was carried out on climate data (temperature, precipitation, river discharge) to evaluate the climate pattern in the Astore Basin. The net retreating change is higher in the Bazin glacier (2.1 sqkm) as compared to the Chhongpher (1.1 Sqkm) and Chongra (1.2 Sqkm) glaciers. A maximum retreat of the snout position was observed as 1595 m in Bazin glacier, 3260 m in Chhongpher glacier, and 960 m in Chongra glacier. In the Astore Basin of the Himalaya region we applied the accumulation area ratio (AAR) and accumulation area balance ratio (AABR) for ELA calculation. Two parameters are provided to determine AAR-ELAs with 0.05 interval between 0.4 and 0.8 and AABR-ELAs with 0.01 interval between 0.9 and 4.4. A 200 m ELA decrease from 6021 to 5821 m of Bazin glacier adjusted its geometries for constant AAR of 0.4–0.45, by reducing ~ 8% area. Furthermore, it is concluded that the value of ELAs is extremely dependent on the rebuilt three dimensional glacier surfaces.
Effect of Power Oscillations Suppression Strategy on the Internal Behavior of MMC-HVDC During Unbalanced Grid Conditions
Authors: Fawzi Mahmoud , Elsanabary Ahmed , Mekhilef Saad
Published: February 2023

Modular Multilevel Converter based High Voltage Direct Current (MMC-HVDC) transmission systems are becoming a well-established technology in transmitting electrical power over very long distances. However, the performance of these systems under unbalanced grid conditions still faces challenging problems. One of the most important control targets is to eliminate the 2nd harmonic power oscillations by selecting the suitable set of current references. Among different power oscillation suppression techniques, Positive Negative Sequence Control (PNSC) and Instantaneous Active and Reac-tive Control (IARC) are considered the most important. However, it is found that, only PNSC is usually considered in all of the references that studied the internal behaviour of MMC during unbalanced conditions when power oscillation suppression is targeted. This is because IARC injects odd harmonics in line currents which results in distorted arm currents and energies among the phases. This paper aims to study the behaviour of the MMC internal variables in case of using IARC. A detailed harmonic analysis of the MMC internal currents and energies is provided. The system is simulated using Matlab-Simulink and validated using HiL technology under different unbalanced grid conditions. The obtained results are then evaluated and compared to that of PNSC to highlight the major differences. It is found that, IARC strategy is more powerful in suppressing power oscillations with simpler structure but with the cost of higher harmonic contents of internal currents and arm energies compared to PNSC strategy. Also, a modified internal energy controller using low pass filters instead of notch filters to eliminate higher order harmonics in the circulating current is proposed in this paper.
Abies hidalgensis: Effect of forest extraction on a threatened and microendemic species
Authors: Rosales-Islas Elena , Octavio-Aguilar Pablo
Published: February 2023

Demography is a key area for obtaining information for monitoring and conserving threatened plants. Abies hidalgensis is a microendemic species of Hidalgo state, listed as threatened in the category VuD2 in the IUCN Red List but not mentioned in the Mexican regulation NOM-059-SEMARNAT due to low existing information. The aim of this research was to evaluate the effect of forest extraction on demographic aspects of Abies hidalgensis. Individuals over 1.5 m tall and with diameters at chest height over 2.5 cm were censused in nine populations with different management conditions. Seedlings were counted in 0.1 ha circles, and their age was registered. Taller individuals were grouped with a cluster analysis and contrasted between extraction treatments by a generalized discriminant function analysis. These groups were used to build static life tables showing fecundity by stage, and the individual numbers from each treatment and population were resampled with a Markovian 10,000-step bootstrap procedure to calculate a stochastic population growth rate. The seedling data was also contrasted by a generalized discriminant function analysis. An age estimation model was fitted to determine age based on diameters. Forest exploitation causes loss of the biggest trees, leading to a notable change of the population structure with an increase of seedlings, loss of fecundity, dominance of small plants, average age decrease, and a decrease in the stochastic population growth rate. However, even when the nine populations are growing, management activities generate a greater risk of mortality in the initial stages and loss of fertile adults.

Published: February 2023

Background
Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is a lethal zoonosis caused by the fox-tapeworm Echinococcus multilocularis. The disease is difficult to treat, and an effective therapeutic drug is urgently needed. Echinococcus multilocularis-associated angiogenesis is required by the parasite for growth and metastasis; however, whether antiangiogenic therapy is effective for treating AE is unclear.
Methods
In vivo efficacy of sunitinib malate (SU11248) was evaluated in mice by secondary infection with E. multilocularis. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) were used to evaluate treatment effects on serum IL-4 and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) A levels after SU11248 treatment. Gross morphological observations and immunohistochemical staining were used to evaluate the impact of SU11248 on angiogenesis and the pro-angiogenic factors VEGFA and VEGF receptor 2 (VEGFR2) expressions in the metacestode tissues. Furthermore, the anthelmintic effects of SU11248 were tested on E. multilocularis metacestodes in vitro. The effect of SU11248 on the expression of VEGFA, VEGFR2, and phosphorylated VEGFR2 (p-VEGFR2) in liver cells infected with protoscoleces in vitro was detected by western blotting, RT-qPCR, and ELISA. The influence of SU11248 on endothelial progenitor cell (EPC) proliferation and migration was determined using CCK8 and Transwell assays.
Results
In vivo, SU11248 treatment markedly reduced neovascular lesion formation and substantially inhibited E. multilocularis metacestode growth in mice. Further, it exhibited high anti-hydatid activity as efficiently as Albendazole (ABZ), and the treatment resulted in reduced protoscolex development. In addition, VEGFA, VEGFR2, and p-VEGFR2 expression was significantly decreased in the metacestode tissues after SU11248 treatment. However, no effect of SU11248 on serum IL-4 levels was observed. In vitro, SU11248 exhibited some anthelmintic effects and damaged the cellular structure in the germinal layer of metacestodes at concentrations below those generally considered acceptable for treatment (0.12–0.5 µM). Western blotting, RT-qPCR, and ELISA showed that in co-cultured systems, only p-VEGFR2 levels tended to decrease with increasing SU11248 concentrations. Furthermore, SU11248 was less toxic to Reuber rat hepatoma (RH) cells and metacestodes than to EPCs, and 0.1 µM SU11248 entirely inhibited EPC migration to the supernatants of liver cell and protoscolex cocultures.
Conclusions
Our results indicated that SU11248 may primarily inhibit E. multilocularis-associated angiogenesis by suppressing the host VEGFA/VEGFR2 signaling pathway, thus decelerating parasite growth. Inhibition of VEGFA-induced angiogenesis is may thus be a novel approach for treating AE.

Published: February 2023

Recently years, semantic segmentation has had extensive usage in many scenarios. Most real-world applications both require high prediction accuracy and running efficiency. To this end, we present a novel lightweight semantic segmentation method to pursue a balance between prediction accuracy and running efficiency. We first design our Efficient Asymmetric Residual Module (EARM) to capture local and context features with a lower computation cost. Following that, we introduce a novel Image Decomposition Attention Mechanism (IDAM) to fuse the feature map from different stages. Based on EARM, we arrange two EARM blocks with gradually increasing dilation rates as the main part of our method. Besides, we show a Lightweight Mutual-Attention Decoder (LMAD) to recover the detailed information effectively. Extensive experiments on Cityscapes and Camvid datasets show that our model achieves 73.3\% and 71.7\% mIoU along with 150 and 131 FPS on the Cityscapes and Camvid datasets respectively
Towards a Real Comprehension of Social Networks Effects on Cybermedia Web Traffic: Quantitative Impact in the 27 European Union Countries Most Popular Online Journals
Authors: Valcarce David Parra , Arias Santiago Martínez , Muñoz Sergio Mena
Published: February 2023

Scientific literature pays considerable attention to the study of development and consolidation of social networks in general and their influence on the information industry and journalism in particular. However, there are no global studies on their quantitative impact on the web traffic of cybermedia. This article focuses on this aspect and examines the impact that social networks have on the overall web traffic generated by the cybermedia of the 27 countries that are currently part of the European Union. For this purpose, the five cybermedia with the highest number of unique visitors in each country were selected and, using a tool such as SimilarWeb that considers flows from desktop and laptop computers, a set of variables referring directly or indirectly to social networks were analyzed, comparing this magnitude with those corresponding to direct traffic and search procedures. The data obtained allow us to conclude that of the total web traffic generated among the European Union cybermedia with the highest number of unique visitors, only 9.858% is directly attributable to social networks, a figure lower than magnitudes such as direct traffic (54.493%) or search procedures (26.041%). With percentage differences, this situation is applicable to all 27 countries examined and calls into question aspects such as the large amount of human and economic resources that the information industry allocate to the management social networks and the constant debate generated around the impact that they have on the shaping of public opinion and their incidence in phenomena such as disinformation or disintermediation.
The lived experience of long-term follow-up clinical care for haematopoietic stem cell recipients in England: A qualitative exploration.
Authors: Bell Blossom , Swainston Katherine
Published: February 2023

Purpose: Despite a haematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) being a potentially curative treatment option for malignant and non-malignant disorders, patients may develop complex physical and psychological post-transplant complications. Consequently, transplant centres remain responsible for patients' life-long monitoring and screening practices. We sought to describe how HSCT survivors experience long-term follow-up (LTFU) monitoring clinics in England.
Method: A qualitative approach was adopted with data collected from written accounts. Seventeen transplant recipients were recruited from across England: the data was analysed using thematic analysis.
Results: Data analysis elicited four themes: transfer to LTFU care: “will there be a change in my care, or will appointments just become less frequent?”; Care Coordination: “it is good to know I am still in the system”; Relationship continuity: “a good knowledge of me, my health and what is important to me”; and Late-effects Screening: “there was not much information about what to expect or be aware of”.
Conclusions: HSCT survivors in England experience uncertainty and lack of information regarding the transfer from acute to long-term care and clinic screening practices. However, patients gain reassurance from remaining on a healthcare pathway and maintaining relationships with healthcare professionals. Implications for Cancer Survivors: HSCT recipients entering LTFU monitoring clinics are a growing population of cancer survivors. Understanding and acknowledging this cohort of patients' needs may inform the development of tailored support to help patients navigate the complicated healthcare pathway.

Published: February 2023

Product-service system is a significant research subject related to business model innovation and sustainability. However, the Product-service system feature has affected consumption behaviour, affecting nurture. The authors identified an apparent knowledge gap in the prior literature concerning nurture in the Product-service system. This study examined that nurture should be a prominent issue in the Product-service system since certain features can significantly affect the achievement of set targets by generating a rebound effect. This study demonstrates that the business model system is complex, with interconnected solutions and issues. Solutions are not implemented in isolation. Therefore, each decision affects the system. This study employs feedback system thinking using system dynamics. To validate its findings against the actual situation, this study employs car-sharing as a case study. The findings of this study indicate that the variable of nurture is a significant indicator of profit growth but generates a deterioration in the environmental and social performance of Product-service system implementation, which leads to a rebound effect of the Product-service system.

Authors: Rubeba Asia Mbwebwe , Kitula Paul Raphael
Published: February 2023

The major role of formative assessment is to give continuous feedback to teachers and learners on learning success for the purpose of improvement. This study was conducted to assess the quality of joint examinations administered in public primary schools for preparing students for standard seven examinations in Tanzania. Specifically, the study determined the extent to which joint examinations cover the contents in the syllabi, investigated whether such examinations are prepared by skilled teachers and investigated how joint examinations influence students’ preparations. Cross sectional design was adopted where standard seven teachers from primary schools in Moshi district were targeted. The study sample consisted of 50 teachers who were selected from 10 public primary schools in Moshi district. Questionnaires and interview schedules were used as tools for data collection and the collected data were analysed using descriptive and thematic analysis. The study found out that joint examinations have good coverage of the syllabi but their preparation does not involve experts in the field of educational assessment. Teachers believed that joint examinations increased students’ learning time thus making them better prepared for the final examinations. It was concluded that despite the observed limitations, if well prepared and managed, joint examinations can greatly enhance students’ performance in the primary education leaving examination. Therefore, the study recommends for all the bodies involved in the process of preparing, administering and evaluating joint examinations to take the process seriously.

Authors: Wang Chunzi , Li Moye , Yan Junpeng
Published: February 2023

Accurate forecast of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions plays a significant role in China's carbon peaking and carbon neutrality policies. A novel two-stage forecast procedure based on support vector regression (SVR), random forest (RF), ridge regression (Ridge), and artificial neural network (ANN) is proposed and evaluated by comparing it with the single-stage forecast procedure. Nine independent variables’ data (study period: 1985–2020) are used to forecast the CO2 emissions in China. Our results reveal that, when the time gap, h increases from 1 to 8, the average root mean squared error (RMSE) and mean absolute error (MAE) of SVR–SVR, SVR–RF, SVR–Ridge, and SVR–ANN are almost uniformly lower than errors arising from their single-stage version, respectively. Among these two-stage models, SVR–ANN exhibits the lowest forecast errors, whereas SVR–RF admits the highest. The mean percentage decrease in forecast errors of SVR–SVR vs. SVR, SVR–RF vs. RF, SVR–Ridge vs. Ridge, and SVR–ANN vs. ANN are 36.06, 5.98, 43.05, and 14.81 for RMSE, and 36.06, 6.91, 43.27, and 15.35 for MAE. Our two-stage procedure is also suitable to forecast other variables, such as fossil fuel and renewable energy consumption.
Evaluation of the success of the hybrid wavelet-based ANFIS approach in the estimation of monthly stream flows of the Bitlis River, Turkey
Authors: Katipoğlu Okan Mert
Published: February 2023

This study aimed to predict monthly flows using an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) and wavelet-ANFIS (W-ANFIS) and to determine the effect of wavelet transformation on the success of the machine learning model. For this purpose, the model inputs are divided into three subcomponents with Daubechies 10 mother wavelets. Subcomponents with the highest correlation were chosen as inputs. The most suitable models were selected by dividing the inputs into 3–7 sub-sets, using 11 different lagged input combinations, and testing various membership functions. In establishing the ANFIS model, 75% of the data were used for training and 25% for testing. The performance of ANFIS models was evaluated with root mean square error, Pearson correlation coefficient, determination coefficients, and Taylor diagram. A model with two sub-sets, a hybrid learning algorithm, a Gbellmf membership function, and 400 iterations was selected as the most suitable. It was concluded that the W-ANFIS model used with the wavelet transform method increased the success of the established ANFIS model. Moreover, it was suggested that the W-ANFIS hybrid machine learning model established in the study can be used effectively in similar climatic regions fed by snowmelt and dominated by a semi-arid climate.
IMAGE OF SIBERIA AS RUSSIAN COLONIAL ORIENT IN IVAN GONCHAROV’S TRAVELOGUE THE FRIGATE PALLADA
Authors: Kurilo Svetlana A. , Novikova Elena G.
Published: February 2023

This article is devoted to the image of Siberia in the last chapters of Ivan Goncharov’s book the Frigate Pallada. The aim of the article is to reconstruct a comprehensive image of Siberia as an eastern colony of the Russian Empire in the Frigate Pallada. The Frigate Pallada text and the writer’s publicistic and epistolary heritage are the material for the study. The imagological and cultural approaches to the studied material are the methodological basis for this study. The specified aim and used methodology have determined the multidimensional scientific novelty of the study. We have obtained the following study results. Goncharov managed to create the comprehensive image of Siberia in the Frigate Pallada. The imagological approach to the material and G. Gachev’s concept of the national picture of the world expressed by the author’s threefold term Cosmo-Psycho-Logos are adequate to reconstruct the created writer’s image of Siberia. Goncharov contrasts the main features of the Siberian Cosmos (empty spaces and harsh climate) with the humane Siberian Psycho that is due to the harmonious coexistence of Russian settlers and indigenous Siberian ethnic groups. Siberian Logos also convincingly proves this harmonious coexistence depicted by the writer, in particular, the living interaction of the Russian language and the languages of the indigenous Siberian people. Today specialists actively research the us-them category interaction in modern imagology and in literary travelogues in particular. The writer’s comparisons with his own Russian realities are frequent in foreign Siberia. Goncharov’s approach particularity is to perceive foreign space in the light of his own space, this is his human and writer’s worldview. Thus, we have come to the following conclusions. The article demonstrates that Goncharov’s position (an adherent of the humanist ideas and an official, a secretary of the diplomatic expedition at the same time) has resulted in an idyllic positive image of the Siberian region as the eastern colony effectively mastered by the Russian Empire.
Towards the Conflict and Compatibility of the Contemporary Economy with Nature
Authors: Pechočiaková Svitačová Eva
Published: February 2023

The subject of interest is the constant deepening of the old conflict between culture and nature, and thus also the conflict with nature and the economy, which J. Šmajs considers to be a subsystem of culture. The conflict between nature and culture is considered to be the main cause of the global ecological crisis, which is a crisis of coexistence between humans and nature. Attention is drawn to the predatory economy, which Šmajs considers to be one of the causes of this conflict and which greatly influences the shape of contemporary culture. The main aim of the paper is to find ways in which this conflict, which has acquired a global dimension, can be mitigated and to advocate for the synergy or compatibility of the economy as well as the whole culture with nature. The solution is to move away from anthropocentrism, to reorient values in society based on a proper understanding of the phenomena of nature, culture and economy. Along with this, it is important to raise environmental awareness among economic actors, but practically among all people. We consider that to be an important step towards mitigating the above-mentioned conflict and towards the development of a sustainable economy and society.
Отношение к деньгам у старших подростков с разным уровнем личностной зрелости
Authors: Безгодова Светлана А. , Жарова Марина В. , Микляева Анастасия В. , Трапицын Сергей Ю.
Published: February 2023

Введение. Обзор литературы, посвященной изучению закономерностей экономической социализации подростков, позволяет сформулировать предположение о том, что отношение подростков к деньгам (осознанность отношения к деньгам и уверенность в своих финансовых правах) опосредовано характеристиками их личностной зрелости. В статье впервые представлены результаты эмпирической проверки этой гипотезы. Методы. В исследовании приняли участие 1145 подростков в возрасте 13–17 лет (725 девочек и 418 мальчиков), не имеющих самостоятельных источников дохода. Сбор эмпирических данных осуществлялся с помощью «Шкалы самооценки зрелости личности» (А. В. Микляева) и «Шкалы отношения подростков к деньгам» (I. Beutler, C. Gudmunson). Результаты. Показатель финансовой осознанности увеличивается по мере взросления (F = 4,17 при р < 0,01), показатель финансовых прав претерпевает менее выраженные изменения (F = 1,34 при р > 0,05). Показатель финансовой осознанности достоверно выше в выборке девочек (F = 17,16 при р < 0,001). На протяжении всего старшего подросткового возраста показатель финансовых прав положительно связан с показателем регуляторной зрелости (F = 3,11 при р = 0,05), показатель финансовой осознанности положительно связан с показателем рефлексивной зрелости (F = 9,92 при р = 0,001) и отрицательно – с показателями регуляторной (F = 7,92 при р = 0,001) и когнитивной (F = 3,50 при р = 0,03) зрелости. Обсуждение результатов. Результаты интерпретируются в контексте социально-психологического подхода к становлению личности в процессе взросления. Делается вывод о том, что фиксируемое изменение отношения к деньгам в подростковом возрасте оказывается тесно сопряжено с оценкой подростками своего личностного потенциала, в частности – тех его сторон, которые позволяют принимать самостоятельные финансовые решения. Формулируются предложения для разработки программ мероприятий, направленных на содействие конструктивной экономической социализации подростков.
Согласование реальной и предпочитаемой организационной культуры современной региональной компании: ценностные предикторы
Authors: Хотинец Вера Ю. , Кожевникова Оксана В. , Баранова Наталья А.
Published: February 2023

Введение. Новизна исследования заключается в том, что изучение организационной культуры осуществляется в связи с базовыми ценностями и целесообразной в современных условиях экономического развития и роста организацией деятельности персонала. Использована модель «конкурирующих ценностей», позволяющая определить направленность организационной культуры в двух основных измерениях, каждое из которых располагается между двумя полярными позициями: 1) свобода деятельности, динамичность / контроль, стабильность; 2) внешний фокус, дифференциация / внутренний фокус, интеграция. Методы. В исследовании приняли участие работники региональной компании, осуществляющей консультирование и обработку обращений, 90 человек в возрасте от 19 до 51 года. Использовались методики: выявления реального и предпочитаемого типов организационной культуры К. Камерона и Р. Куинна; измерения культурных ценностей Г. Хофстеде; акмеологического теста личностных ценностей А. В. Капцова. Для установления предикторов типов организационной культуры, целесообразных в современных условиях развития экономики, использовался множественный регрессионный анализ. Результаты. По результатам анализа профиля реальной организационной культуры в региональной компании установлено смещение акцента в сторону стабильности, порядка и контроля с преобладанием рыночной культуры при незначительном превышении иерархической. В качестве предпочитаемой работниками компании выступила клановая организационная культура, что объясняется сопротивлением социальных индивидов декларируемым ценностям культуры потребления и потребностью в групповой солидарности и социальной поддержке. Предикторами организационной культуры рыночного типа являются культурные ценности: большая дистанция власти, индивидуализм, маскулинность, наслаждение жизнью и личностные ценности семьи; адхократического типа – культурные ценности, актуализирующие субъектный контроль в инновационных достижениях. Обсуждение результатов. Сформулирован вывод о том, что менеджмент в современных региональных организациях, несмотря на вступление в рыночные отношения, продолжает полагаться на принципы контроля и стабильности – основу старой системы управления советского времени с подавляющим предпочтением поддержки и заботы со стороны руководства.
Phonology, phonetic and phonological aspects
Authors: Alsharif Hassan
Published: February 2023

This paper aimed at explaining the definition of phonology and exploring phonetic aspects in English. A continuous sequence of language sounds, sometimes an up and down sound, sometimes a short pause or a long pause, sometimes a loud or soft sound, and sometimes a stretching sound and a normal sound. The classification of this word in linguistics has always been a topic that has never been overlooked, since Aristotle's time until now, including in Indonesian linguistic studies, the problem has never been resolved. This occurs, because, firstly, each language has its own characteristics, and secondly, because the criteria used to classify the word can vary.
Written, scratch and spelling languages
Authors: Wong Yullips Ziwen
Published: February 2023

Language is a sound system. Linguistics sees language as spoken language, spoken language, not written language. However, linguistics does not close itself to written language, because anything related to language is also an object of linguistics. Oral language linguistics is primary, while written language is secondary. In that language, there is no known written language variety, only spoken language variety. Written language can be considered as a "record" of spoken language, as a human effort to "store" the language or to be conveyed to other people who are in a different space and time. However, it turns out that the recorded written language is not perfect. Many elements of spoken language, such as stress, intonation, and tone, cannot be perfectly recorded in written language, whereas in certain languages ​​these three elements are very important. There are several types of script, namely pictographic script, ideographic script, syllabic script, and phonemic script. None of these types of characters can "record" spoken language perfectly. Many elements of spoken language cannot be described by the script accurately and accurately.

A storage tank, which is used to store oil, is important and high-risk equipment that requires attention to its safety aspects. As a preventive measure, the government requires inspections of all storage tanks, either on a regular basis (every four years) or based on risk assessment. This safety study aims to create an inspection plan for the storage tanks at the oil refinery using the risk-based inspection (RBI) method. The RBI method in this study adopts API RP 581, Third Edition, 2016. Risk analysis is carried out in stages, including collecting technical data on the tanks, determining failure mechanisms, conducting risk analysis, and finally creating an inspection interval and method. Technical data was collected and studied for 29 storage tanks designed according to the API 650 standard. The determined failure mechanisms for the storage tank shell are atmospheric corrosion, general corrosion, and corrosion under insulation. The results of the risk analysis showed that all tanks have a medium risk, with 16 units in category 3C and 13 units in category 2C. The planned inspection methods are visual inspection, UT thickness or flaw thickness, and CUI, with most inspection intervals reaching 10 years. Based on this study, it is concluded that risk-based inspection (RBI) is more effective and efficient than the specific time interval inspection method (every 4 years).

Distal fractures on the collarbone are one of the most common fractures. Using internal fixation is one of the most widely used methods for treating fractures in the collarbone. A dual fixation plate for a collarbone fracture is reported to reduce reoperation due to fixation devices. In this study, the element analysis results will be presented using finite element analysis software (FEA software) for the fixation of collarbone fractures using dual plate fixation, superior plate, and anteroinferior plate. A three-dimensional model of a collarbone fracture with a fracture distance of 3 mm is used to obtain the equivalent von Mises stress value. There was no significant difference in the bending and compressive loadings on the double small plate fixation, superior plate fixation, and anteroinferior plate fixation. The von Mises stress equivalent for double small plate fixation has the most significant value compared to superior and anteroinferior plate fixation. This demonstrates that dual small plate fixation has better biomechanical properties than single plate fixation because it has better stress shielding ability and will accelerate bone healing due to the low load on the collarbone if used by an active patient.

The article considers the issue of distinguishing obligations due to unjust enrichment from the property consequences of invalidating the transaction. The author, having studied the civil legislation of Russia, scientific research in the field of the institute of conditioning and restitution, decisions of arbitration courts, determined the ratio of conditioning and restitution requirements. The relationship between these institutions lies in the fact that the norms of Art. 167 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation do not provide for a plurality of possible consequences that may take place in practice. The existing gaps of the institute on the invalidity of transactions can be filled by the application of the norms of the institution of obligations from unjust enrichment in accordance with paragraphs 1 of Art. 1103 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation. The analysis made it possible to highlight aspects of the existence (or absence) of competition of civil claims, including in an invalid, null or void or contested transaction.
Jurisdiction of civil cases on compensation for moral damage

Published: February 2023

The article deals with the issues of determining the jurisdiction of claims for compensation for moral damage. The relevance of the research topic is due to the fact that recent changes in procedural legislation have included new elements in the institution of jurisdiction that have complicated the application of the rules on jurisdiction in civil proceedings. In this regard, it became necessary to scientifically develop new elements of jurisdiction, to show their relationship with the traditional rules of tribal and territorial jurisdiction. The choice of the topic is also due to the lack of uniformity in law enforcement practice regarding the jurisdiction of claims for the recovery of moral damage. There is no uniform approach to this matter in the doctrine of civil procedural law, which gives this study not only scientific but also practical significance. The article notes that in order to systematize the rules on jurisdiction in the doctrine, a new classification of jurisdiction has been developed, which the author used in the article to determine the jurisdiction of claims for the recovery of moral damage. Particular attention is paid to the criteria for delimiting judicial competence to consider the named category of disputes between courts of general jurisdiction and arbitration courts, the issues of the correlation between the jurisdiction of district courts and justices of the peace in considering claims for compensation for moral damage are considered. The study resulted in conclusions and proposals for improving the mechanisms for delimiting the jurisdiction of claims for the recovery of moral damage.

. The article attempts to combine the doctrinal ideas of Russian legal science about the origin of the state and law, based on the Marxist postulate of class struggle, with a modern view of the causes of the origin and interrelation of these institutions. In the first part of the work, the author outlines the doctrinal positions on the issue of the emergence of the state, concludes about the key role of social stratification and the formation of the military estate in this process. In the second part, the concepts of modern domestic scientists on the problem of the origin of law are proposed for consideration, based on the analysis of which the reasons for the appearance of this social institution are established, it is shown that law has a longer evolutionary period and its formation began much earlier than the origin of the institution of the state. At the same time, the author does not deny the key importance of law for the resolution of social conflicts in the course of further historical development of mankind.

Published: February 2023

Based on the study of historical and legal material, theoretical and practical generalizations, the article examines the use of reception in the state-buildingof Russia through the prism of political orientation and the choice of donor legal space. Some aspects of the functioning of the state-legal system and the stages of receiving foreign legal material are analyzed. The purpose of the study is to determine the structural changes of Russian statehood in the Soviet and post-Soviet periods, the mutual influence of the received legal material and political and legal realities in the field of public and private law. It is shown that the system-structural and organizational-functional transformations of the Russian state (and/or constitutional) system depend on the received legal provisions and the political orientation of the state-legal system. The author draws attention to the possibility of functioning of a democratic state only if the state-legal system is systematically received and reformed in accordance with the political and legal requirements of the trends in the development of the state and society.
