Some Investigations on Effect of Notch on Dynamics Characteristics of Cantilever Beams
Authors: Gawande S. H. , More R. R.
Published: March 2019

Beams are very important as per engineering applications is concern and it undergoes different type of loading. Because of different type of loadings there may be chance of failure of structures due to generation of notch.Therefore
notch depth and its location are the main parameters for the vibration analysis of beams.The notch depth and its
position may affect the natural frequency. Hence, it is essential to study the effect of notch depth and its position
on modal natural frequency of the beam for the good performance and its safety. This paper work focus on the
examination of these changes, which are useful for identification of notch place.The material of the beam is seleced
as mild steel. In this work the comprehensive analysis of cantilever beam with and without notch has been done
using analytical analysis and finite element method (FEM) with the help of ANSYS and experimentally using modern National Instruments (NI) Lab-view technique. An experimental set up was developed in which a cantilever
beam was excited by a hammer and the response was obtained using an accelerometer.This method describes the
relation between the various dynamics characteristics as modal natural frequency and notch depth, modal natural
frequency with notch location. This paper focus on the study of dynamic properties of cantilever beams subjected
to free vibration under the influence of notch at different points along the length.
End of the Assembly Line Gearbox Fault Inspection Using Artificial Neural Network and Support Vector Machines
Authors: V. Kane Prasad , B. Andhare Atul
Published: March 2019

Gear fault diagnosis is important not only during the routine maintenance of machinery, but also during the inspection of newly manufactured gearboxes at the end of the assembly line. This paper discusses the application
of an artificial neural network (ANN) and a support vector machine (SVM) for identifying faults in the gearbox,
using the psychoacoustic and conventional statistical features extracted from acoustics and vibration signals. It
is observed that at the end of the assembly line, the gearbox is tested by mounting it on a test bench and driving
it by an electric motor. Based on the sound emitted while running on the test bench, the operator decides on the
acceptance of the gearbox for further assembly on a vehicle or machine. This method of acceptance or rejection of
the gearbox involves subjectivity and it is not reliable. Hence, it is important to have a reliable and objective fault
detection and diagnosis method. To eliminate subjectivity, psychoacoustic features, which are derived from the science of listening in human beings, are proposed to be used as features, along with ANN and SVMs as classifiers.
To ascertain the ability of the psychoacoustic features to classify faults, laboratory experiments are carried on a test
setup by simulating faults like a gear shaft misalignment, a profile error of a gear tooth, a crack at the root of the
tooth, and a broken tooth. ANN and SVM are trained with the psychoacoustic features extracted from the acoustic
signal and other statistical features from the acoustics and vibration signals. The trained SVM and ANN are tested
for fault classification for these features and their accuracy is compared. Fault classification accuracy is found to be
95.65% for ANN and 93.44% for SVM with psychoacoustic features and is found to be better than pure statistical
features obtained from the vibration and acoustic signals. With the optimised ANN and SVM architecture, SVM
is found to be performing better than ANN. It is concluded that the psychoacoustic features, along with the ANN
and SVM method, could be adopted at the end of assembly line inspection to make the inspection process more
objective.

Authors: Ribeiro Renata Maciel , Amaral Silvana , Monteiro Antônio Miguel Vieira , Dal'Asta Ana Paula
Published: March 2019

Na Amazônia brasileira, as dinâmicas de urbanização e conversão florestal possuem lógicas complexas, dependentes de fatores e agentes atuando em diferentes escalas. Este artigo explora a evolução espacial e temporal da urbanização e da conversão florestal na Amazônia, a partir de elementos mensuráveis presentes nestes processos: a expansão urbana, dimensão observável dos processos de urbanização; e o desmatamento, uma medida dos processos de conversão florestal. A identificação de padrões espaço-temporais similares, avaliados quanto às tendências de evolução temporal do grau de urbanização e incremento de desmatamento em 2000, 2010 e 2014, foi base para a proposta de uma tipologia das relações entre expansão urbana e desmatamento para os estados da Amazônia Legal e municípios do Pará. O estudo explorou também as relações entre expansão urbana e desmatamento, com uso de regressões geograficamente ponderadas (GWR), observando duas unidades espaciais de análise para o estado do Pará: os limites municipais e uma grade celular (20x20km). Esta abordagem multiescalar evidenciou a dificuldade de se estabelecerem relações conclusivas quanto à co-ocorrência, ou concordância, da evolução dos processos de urbanização e conversão florestal. Os resultados contribuem para o estabelecimento de uma agenda sobre modelos de desenvolvimento regional que retome o urbano como essencial para uma Amazônia socialmente justa e ambientalmente responsável.

Published: March 2019

Background: There exists brain tissue inflammation and endothelial function damage in stroke. Method: We investigated serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels of PTX3, HSP70, VEGF, IL-6, CRP in patients with stroke, this study was conducted on 85 standard stroke patients during 2015-2016, include ischemic stroke (IS) group (52 cases) and hemorrhagic stroke (HS) group (33 cases). The patients without inflammatory and neurological disease were the control group (20 cases). The levels of PTX3, HSP70, VEGF, IL-6 and CRP in serum on the 1th, 5th and 14th day after admission were measured and compared them with that in cerebrospinal fluid, NIHSS and Barthel score were also performed for assessing patients with HS. The results showed that the serum levels of PTX3, HSP70, VEGF, IL-6, CRP with HS were higher than that with IS patients (P<0.001, P=0.16, P=0.08, P=0.12, P<0.001, respectively), and PTX3 level began to fall after 14th day (P=0.015). The cerebrospinal fluid of PTX3, HSP70,VEGF and IL-6 levels in patients with HS were higher than that of normal control group (P=0.002, P=0.003, P<0.001, P<0.001, respectively). The levels of PTX, HSP70, IL-6 in cerebrospinal fluid were higher than that in the serum (P=0.026, P<0.001, P<0.001, respectively), and VEGF, CRP instead (P=0.011, P<0.001, respectively). The level of PTX3 in cerebrospinal fluid was positively correlated with IL-6 in patients with HS (P<0.001), PTX3 and IL-6 in patients with HS were positively correlated with patients' NIHSS score (P=0.007, P<0.001, respectively), and negatively correlated with Barthel index score (P=0.023, P<0.001, respectively). Inflammation and endothelial damage were more severe in patients with HS. The levels of PTX3 and IL-6 in cerebrospinal fluid could assess the severity, progression, and prognosis of HS. PTX3 may be a potential biomarker in HS, it could provide potent basis for doctors to select appropriate treatment measures as soon as possible.

Published: March 2019

Background. Nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin's lymphoma (NLPHL) is a rare Hodgkin's lymphoma subtype with a variable growth pattern and immune tissue architecture of tumor. Clustering of patients into subgroups based on immunohistochemical (IHC) tumor subvariants is essential for prognosis assessment and development of new differentiated treatment approaches. Aim. To study clinical course of NLPHL in patients with different IHC-subvariants of the disease and identify a poor prognosis subgroup. Materials & Methods. From 2010 to 2017 the Department of Anatomic Pathology at the National Medical Hematology Research Center undertook morphological and IHC-analysis of lymph node and bone marrow core biopsies of 60 NLPHL patients: 47 men and 13 women (male/female ratio of 3.6:1) aged 17-68 years (median 37 years). IHC-analysis with expanded panel of antibodies was performed in all cases of determining IHC-subvariants in accordance with WHO-2017 classification. Results. The clinical and immunomorphological comparative study of NLPHL with variant immune tissue architecture allowed to divide the patient population into three subgroups with differently manifested areas similar to T-cell/ histiocyte-rich large B-cell lymphoma (THRLBCL) in lymph node sections or other site biopsies. These subgroups are characterized by different clinical course of the disease. The subgroup with ≥ 50 % THRLBCL-like areas was marked by the prevalence of clinical stage IV and significantly larger amount of extranodal lesions. Conclusion. In NLPHL the most unfavorable clinical course is typical of the patients whose biopsies contain ≥ 50 % THRLBCL-like areas. Semi-quantification of THRLBCL-like areas allowed to define a spectrum of NLPHL IHC-subvariants correlating with the clinical course of the disease. The true transformation into diffuse large B-cell lymphoma is a rare event, it occurred in 2 (3 %) out of 60 patients.

Core Ideas

Strip tillage had relative production advantage over other tillage practices in corn production.

Strip tillage showed greater water use efficiency than conventional tillage.

No‐tillage showed higher residual carryover soil moisture, NO3–N and total N.

Successful corn (Zea mays L.) production in semiarid and arid southwestern United States is limited by available resources, especially water and N, and management of such limited resources need efficient on‐farm tillage and N management decisions. A 3‐yr study was conducted at New Mexico State University Agricultural Science Center, Tucumcari, NM, to evaluate the effectiveness of three tillage strategies (conventional, strip, and no‐tillage) and two N rates (196 and 308 kg ha−1) on corn yield, water use, and carry‐over residual water and N characteristics. Tillage × N‐rate interaction had no significant impact on corn yield, water use, and residual soil characteristics (P > 0.05). No‐tillage showed consistent lower grain and stover yield in all three years. Strip tillage (ST) had a relative grain yield advantage over other tillage practices in 2 out of 3 yrs. Strip tillage showed higher harvesting index and greater water use efficiency (WUE) than conventional tillage (CT). No‐tillage (NT) had 20 to 45% greater residual carry‐over soil moisture than CT during the 3‐yr study period. Percent change (draw‐down) in soil profile moisture and NO3–N in each site‐year were higher in CT than other tillage treatments at both 0 to 30 and 30‐ to 60‐cm depth increments. No‐tillage resulted in higher residual carry‐over NO3–N and total N at both incremental depths in each tested year, without exception. Overall, implementation of ST in the semiarid regions has significant advantage over other tillage practices in improving the resource use efficiency in corn production.
On‐the‐Go Sensor Fusion for Prediction of Clay and Organic Carbon Using Pre‐processing Survey, Different Validation Methods, and Variable Selection
Authors: Tabatabai Salman , Knadel Maria , Thomsen Anton , Greve Mogens H.
Published: March 2019

Core Ideas

Four different validation methods were investigated.

Extensive pre‐processing and variable selection were used.

Fusing electrical conductivity to spectra adds no value to models.

Clay and organic carbon predicted with high accuracy on‐the‐go.

Independent field prediction is not yet reliable.

Using on‐the‐go visible and near‐infrared (Vis–NIR) spectroscopy singularly or in combination with other sensor data has been found to produce promising cross‐validation (CV) and prediction results. In this study, besides from testing two CV methods, we aim to predict clay and organic carbon (OC) not only in new samples but also on samples from new fields that were not included in either of the calibration or validation processes. Sensor data was collected from eight fields in different parts of Denmark using a mobile multi‐sensor platform with a Vis‐NIR spectrometer and electrical conductivity and temperature sensors. Fifteen samples were collected from each field using fuzzy c‐means clustering of the field spectra, and clay and OC were measured in the laboratory using traditional methods. Different combinations of spectral pre‐processing methods were tested and Partial Least Squares Regression (PLSR) was calibrated on the data and validated using four methods: (A) Venetian blinds CV; (B) one‐field‐out CV; (C) model on 70% of the data used to predict the remaining 30%; and (D) model on the data from six fields used to predict the remaining two fields. To simplify models and improve performance, interval PLS (iPLS) variable selection was used. Results indicate no or negligible improvement when spectral data was fused with other sensor data. In general, the results look very promising for Validations A, B and C for both clay and OC. However, in Validation D, models did not produce high accuracy results. Our findings show that good processing of Vis‐NIR spectral data can produce the best models, making sensor fusion for clay and OC determination pointless. These results have important implications for future sensor design and sensor measurements in soil science and call for further investigations into on‐the‐go site‐independent field prediction.
Proposals for inclusion in NRB-2019 Section on radiogenic risk
Authors: Gubin A. T. , Sakovich V. A.
Published: March 2019

In this article it made analysis of concepts and values used in NRB-99/2009 and a number of national methodological documents on the assessment of risks associated with irradiation. It is concluded that NRB-99/2009 violates the logic in the presentation of this issue. It can be restored if a special section is introduced in the developed NSB-2019, with more detailed coverage of the terminological and methodological aspects of the assessment of such risks. The draft section is attached to this article In the draft introduces a number of new terms (radiogenic risk, nominal radiogenic risk, radiogenic risk of death from cancer and radiogenic risk of cancer and a number of others) with a clear interpretation of their meaning and purpose, as well as the sphere application of the relevant values. The draft proposes to replace the term generalized risk with radiation risk, which is more in line with its meaning. Given also specific formulas to calculate the radiogenic risk coefficients for different types of irradiation based on the real demographics data for exposed populations. Because of the cumbersome formulas, they can be given to the Annex of the NRB-2019 or issued in methodical instructions prepared in the elaboration of the provisions of the NRB-2019.
Estimation of the air kerma rate from 137Cs and 134Cs deposited on the ground in the Sakhalin region of Russia after the Fukushima accident
Authors: Ramzaev V. P. , Barkovsky A. N.
Published: March 2019

Previous studies conducted by the Federal Service for Surveillance on Consumer Rights Protection and Human Well-Being (Rospotrebnadzor) in Sakhalin Region, Russia in 2011–2012 have shown that soils on the southern Kuril Islands were contaminated with 137Cs and 134Cs due to the accident at the Fukushima-1 NPP. In this study, we evaluated the air kerma rate from 137Cs and 134Cs using earlier published data on the vertical distribution of Fukushima-derived radiocaesium in the soil at grasslands on the islands of Kunashir, Shikotan and Iturup. The air kerma rate due to gamma-rays from pre-Fukushima 137Cs was estimated as well. In the period from May 2011 to September 2012, the air kerma rate due to the fresh fallout of radioactive caesium varied from 0.31 to 0.84 nGy h−1. On average, the contribution of the radiation from Fukushima-derived 134Cs and 137Cs to the total air kerma rate from radioactive cesium was 35% in the fall of 2011 and 25% in the fall of 2012. The mean normalized kerma rate from Fukushima-derived 137Cs was estimated at a level of 1.63 nGy h−1 per kBq m−2 in mid-May 2011, 1.53 nGy h−1 per kBq m−2 in autumn 2011 and 1.45 nGy h−1 per kBq m−2 in autumn 2012. The mean normalized air kerma rate from pre-Fukushima 137Cs at reference undisturbed grasslands was estimated as 0.77 nGy h−1 per kBq m−2. The results of our calculations of the air kerma rate from Fukushima-derived 137Cs were in good agreement with the forecast of the 2013 UNSCEAR model, which was used to estimate the external doses of the Japanese population after the Fukushima accident. For pre-Fukushima 137Cs, the UNSCEAR model underestimated the calculated normalized air kerma rates in Sakhalin Region by approximately 40%. Our calculations showed that, overall, the aboveground biomass of herbaceous plants had practically no effect on the air kerma rate from radioactive cesium contained in the soil. The fallout of 134Cs and 137Cs after the accident at the Fukushima-1 NPP did not lead to any significant increase in the gamma dose rate in the air at grasslands on Kuril Islands. In 2019–2020, the contribution of radiocaesium to the total gamma dose rate in air will not exceed 5%.
Development of the model of radiation risk-communication with the public for the arrangement of the research
Authors: Biblin A. M.
Published: March 2019

The aim of the study was to justify and develop a model of risk communication with the public on radiation protection issues and to conduct research based on it in St. Petersburg and the Leningrad Region. The proposed model of risk communication consists of five continuously and cyclically alternating each other stages: 1) scientific research; 2) a scientifically based system of practical measures; 3) a regional risk communication program on the radiation protection of the public; 4) practical arrangements for the implementation of the program; 5) research to assess the effectiveness of risk communication. Four sets of questions to be answered in the framework of scientific research were identified: 1) the characteristics of the radiation-hygienic environment; 2) the demographic situation and the state of health of the public; 3) attitudes of the participants of the risk information field; 4) information field characteristic. The results obtained through the  research allowed substantiating the system of practical measures: 1) to determine the directions of risk communication, 2) to assess the need for developing local programs within the framework of regional ones; 3) to assess the level of knowledge and perceptions of the public about possible sources of radiation risk; 4) to identify stakeholders in risk communication; 5) to determine the types and list of information materials and information resources that are optimal for different groups of stakeholders. The conducted studies indicate that the radiation situation in St. Petersburg and the Leningrad Region is stable. These regions contain all exposure situations that require the development of local risk communication programs. p Several differences were revealed in health indicators of the public in St-Petersburg and the Leningrad region. Public knowledge on radiation protection issues can be characterized as fragmented and uncertain. The preferred source of information for the public is the Internet. Among all sources of information, unconditional leaders in the level of public confidence are the employees of the Ministry of Emergency Situations, scientists and specialists. More than half of the respondents in St-Petersburg and the Leningrad Region (73% and 60% respectively) had no  information about key public organizations covering issues of the radiation protection of the public, which indicates a rather low effectiveness of the activity of these public organizations. Both in all and in certain categories of mass media, a significant part (more than 50%) are publications with a neutral presentation of information. Only the media of the city of Sosnovy Bor is characterized by the active involvement of specialists in the radiation safety of the public in the preparation of information materials.

Published: March 2019

The paper clarifies the pedagogical conditions for improvement of pedagogical support modeling in the system of continuous education and provides some practical examples. The quality of determinations and models of pedagogical support in continuous education is determined by the adaptive, acme-pedagogic, personified-productive, and functional-labor approaches, which reveal the direction of scientific inquiry and visualize solutions. Social, professional, and educational orientation of the search for optimal pedagogical conditions of optimization reveals various facets and opportunities of the individual and society to improve the quality of education. Traditional and innovative constructs define, describe, and visualize the nuances of the modeling, thus revealing linear and nonlinear models, case conditions and system determinants of the adaptive, acme-pedagogics, personalized, productive, and functional solutions. The systematic character of the scientific research ensures its integrity, uniformity, correctness, accuracy, flexibility, and relevance of the resulting solutions aimed at omproving the modeling the basics of the pedagogical support in the system of continuous education.
Idealized Subject of Theory and its Logic: Relationship Model
Authors: Красиков Владимир , Krasikov Vladimir
Published: March 2019

The paper explores the relationship between two levels of theory, i.e. its initial theoretical basis and its logic. The author describes three possible states of the initial theoretical basis: the potential, the state of the hypothesis, and the formation state. These states presumably differ in the degree of internal correlation of ingredients, which depends on the activity of the researcher’s mind. The author tries to determine the ontological location of the original theoretical basis. An analysis of historical and philosophical literature revealed the following characteristic positions, i.e. objective idealism, representationism, praxeological apriorism, praxeological subjectivism, and culturological transcendentalism. Each of the positions has its own argument and rational grounds. After a brief comparison, the author focuses on the last one. He analyses the possible mechanisms of the epistemological genesis of the idealized subject of theory from a potential initial theoretical basis, i.e. choice, invention, and transfer. In this paper, the methodological level of theory is understood as a set of its interpretations, i.e. in practical experience, semantics, and spiritual-theoretical space. Then the author identifies the main forms of interaction of the initial theoretical framework and the logic of theory. First, scientists, often unaccountably, shape the potential space of the original theoretical basis through the methodological operations of idealizations, design, and hypothetical input. In addition, theorists, who purposefully develop a theory, conceptualize the corresponding specific methods through the empirical projection of the theory, by introducing definitions of certain terms of the theoretical language in terms of the empirical language and vice versa. Finally, the author summarizes that the initial theoretical foundations formed into conceptual frameworks are prescriptions of scientific activity and operators of reflexive acts. Thus, rationality is a constant search for proportion and equilibrium between the postulated order (the ontological scheme) and the order of judgments about it (the methodology).
Analysis of Pure Consciousness as a Correlated Extended Informative Perspective
Authors: Семёнов Владимир , Semenov Vladimir
Published: March 2019

Introduction. In this paper, an attempt is made to study the Husserlian philosophy of knowledge in order to identify, on the basis of our own reflections, not just the true fundamental core of pure consciousness, but the dynamic existence within the framework of that stratum to which we fall upon accomplishing the phenomenological reduction.

The methodological basis for this work is the position of the phenomenological theory of pure consciousness from "Ideas for Pure Phenomenology and Phenomenological Philosophy. Book One. A General Introduction to Pure Phenomenology" by E. Husserl. According to Husserl, our usual everyday experience may be subject to reduction up to the discovery of a layer of pure, a priori cognitive processes. The very same a priori knowledge can be found in I. Kant’s "Critique of Pure Reason", in particular from his reflections on transcendental aesthetics and foundations of pure reason.

Results. Having analyzed the hidden possibilities of pure consciousness, the author declares that, even in such a phenomenological layer, where any volitional arbitrariness is excluded, there is a structure, or, in other words, a kind of intellectualization, shaped by time.

Conclusion. The author believes that a half-hearted view of consciousness as merely an intentional being leads to a negative simplification of the subject of knowledge. A new, expanded model of phenomenal-existential consciousness, proposed in this work, showed that the decomposition of the basic attributes of pure consciousness has an expanded cognitive perspective of such phenomena-things that are not understood by simple and one-sided Husserlian intention, but, on the contrary, they reveal even more complex phenomena.
Legal Consequences of the Abuse of Rights
Authors: Овинников Вадим , Ovinnikov Vadim
Published: March 2019

The paper features the sanctions for abuse of the right to an unconscientious person (violator). The ongoing reforms of civil law in the Russian Federation allowed legislators to expand the list of sanctions that can be applied for the abuse of rights. The author introduces a classification of violators that can be punished for the abuse of the right can be applied. The current judicial practice shows that it both victim and mala fide party may assume the roles of plaintiff, defendant, and a third party in court, depending on how they use and exercise their subjective rights within the framework of civil rights. The rules of law governing the refusal to protect the right against a violator may not be applied by the court spontaneously. The author found some hidden forms of behavior of the plaintiff or defendant parties, the purpose of which is to harm the other party, to refuse to satisfy the claim of the bona fide party, i.e. illegal behavior of the defendant, or satisfaction of the claim of the unconscientious party, i.e. illegal behavior of the plaintiff. The civil-law approach to the study of actual problems of abuse of right makes it possible to clarify the essence of this legal phenomenon in the modern civil law.

Published: March 2019

Objetivo: realizar un artículo de reflexión sobre el impacto de los programas de tamizaje prenatal ecográfico de malformaciones congénitas. Reflexionar sobre las bajas tasas de detección en nuestro país y proponer algunos factores que pudieran contribuir en su mejora. Metodología: se realizó una búsqueda electrónica en PubMed, Hinari, Cochrane y otros portales de salud. Se incluyeron artículos que, cumpliendo los criterios de inclusión, describían el uso de la ecografía antenatal para la detección de malformaciones congénitas, así como los relacionados a las tasas de detección en Colombia y el mundo. Resultados y conclusión: el implementar esquemas de diagnóstico antenatal ecográfico de alteraciones congénitas mejora las tasas de detección de malformaciones congénitas. En nuestro sistema público de salud estas no superan el 35 %, a pesar de que existe la guía clínica para la atención integral del 2013 propuesta por el Ministerio de Protección Social, lo cual hace pensar que esta política no se ha implementado ni ejecutado adecuadamente en las instituciones prestadoras de salud.

The water-saving service (WSS) supply chain equilibrium and cooperative decision models under the scenario without/with the social welfare maximization (SWM) goal are developed, analyzed, and compared, respectively, the numerical and sensitivity analyses for all models are conducted and compared, and the corresponding management insights and policy implications are summarized in this paper. The research results indicate that: (1) the cooperation strategy outperforms the equilibrium strategy regarding the water-consumption reduction, operational performance of WSS supply chain, the corresponding social welfare, consumer surplus, and positive externalities, regardless of whether the SWM is considered or not; (2) a subsidy threshold policy under which the government only subsidizes the WSS supply chain adopting the cooperation strategy is recommended to be designed to maximize social welfare with higher positive externalities; (3) subsidizing the WSS to pursue the SWM contributes to enhancing the water-consumption reduction, improving the operational performance of WSS supply chain and its members, the corresponding social welfare, consumer surplus, and positive externalities; (4) the WSS provider would have an internal incentive to provide WSS without government subsidy when the fixed cost of WSS is low, otherwise, the WSS provider would not have an internal incentive to provide WSS unless with a government subsidy.

The problem requires comprehensive consideration for solving the problems of integrating «old» and «new» technological processes, developing enterprise management methods in the context of a combination of technology and a quick change of machinery stock and technological methods of its operation.
The problem of double diagnoses in psychiatry and addictology: leaving reality, or the stage of integration?
Authors: Antsyborov Andrey Viktorovich , Dubatova Irina Vladimirovna
Published: March 2019

The article points out that the existence of the problem of double diagnoses (DD) in psychiatry and addictology means recognizing the fact that «addiction» is a mental illness and, therefore, a brain disorder. There are common areas in the brain that are responsible for the formation of addictive pathology and for the development of other mental illnesses. It explains the high comorbidity between disorders associated with the use of psychoactive substances, and other mental illnesses. The factors of predisposition to the development of addictive pathology include: family burden with addictive pathology, early onset of use of psychoactive substances, social stress situation, and mental illness. The artificial separation of psychiatry and addictology into two services in Russia is a historical mistake. A new paradigm of dependent disorders emphasizes the need to create a special section on double disorders, with the revision of this archaic model.
Drażliwość i krytycyzm. O roli filozoficznej krytyki w kulturze i edukacji
Authors: Piłat Robert
Published: March 2019

W artykule omawiam normatywne aspekty drażliwości – nieadekwatnie silnej reakcji na różnice poglądów i postaw – towarzyszącej współczesnej polaryzacji dyskursu w kulturze Zachodu. Tak jak polaryzacja, drażliwość jest częściowo wytworem medialnym, lecz odzwierciedla również strukturalne problemy kultur i praktyk społecznych opartych na gęstej sieci wartości. Omawiam diagnozy zjawiska i proponowane w filozofii remedia, takie jak odejście od dyskursu opartego na wartościach oraz osłabienie założeń związanych z silnym podmiotem działań i przekonań. Polemizując z tym dwoma rozwiązaniami, proponuję program radykalnego filozoficznego krytycyzmu. Omawiam jego założenia na tle współczesnych teorii krytycznych (między innymi Horkheimera, Spaemanna, Habermasa) oraz pokazuję jego konkretne zastosowanie w praktyce edukacyjnej.
Filozofia jako ćwiczenie duchowe. Coachingowy model uprawiania filozofii
Authors: Leśniak Piotr
Published: March 2019

Główną tezą tekstu jest uznanie tzw. modelu coachingowego za pierwotny i wciąż żywy sposób uprawiania filozofii. Twierdzę, że filozofia akademicka, która od kilku stuleci tkwi w tradycji scholastycznej, może być uprawiana w modelu coachingowym. W drugim paragrafie przedstawiam odróżnienie dwóch rodzajów filozofowania: Sokratejskiego – określonego w tekście mianem „coachingowego” – oraz Arystotelesowskiego, nazywanego tutaj „scholastycznym”. W trzecim paragrafie pokazuję, w jaki sposób Wiktor Frankl nawiązuje do coachingowej tradycji uprawiania filozofii w swojej praktyce terapeutycznej. W czwartym przedstawiam przykłady zastosowania modelu coachingowego w dydaktyce filozofii.
Żałoba, rozpacz, śmierć − analiza kazusu. Próba dookreślenia specyfiki pracy doradczo-filozoficznej
Authors: Woszczyk Agnieszka
Published: March 2019

Przedstawione rozważania prezentują próbę namysłu nad zasadami i metodyką pracy doradczo-filozoficznej z uwzględnieniem kazusu z własnej praktyki, dotyczącego przeżywania żałoby. Podejście filozoficzne zostanie ukazane w porównaniu do pomocy psychologicznej, na przykładzie terapii krótkoterminowej, zorientowanej na rozwiązania, oraz coachingu jako formy pracy nakierowanej na rozwój. Głównym celem artykułu jest ukazanie specyficznych potrzeb, na które może odpowiedzieć doradztwo filozoficzne. W przekonaniu, że wnosi ono wartości, które nie są oferowane, przynajmniej w tym samym stopniu, w innych omawianych tu formach pracy. Prowadzona refleksja koncentruje się pośrednio również na kwestii wymagań kompetencyjnych, koniecznych w doradztwie filozoficznym.
Filozofia tu i teraz. Ontologia procesu jako podstawa filozoficznego coachingu
Authors: Leśniak Piotr
Published: March 2019

Artykuł zawiera szkic ontologicznych podstaw coachingu filozoficznego – nowej dyscypliny praktycznej, która od roku 2016 stanowi składnik oferty edukacyjnej Uniwersytetu Opolskiego. Jest rozwinięciem idei zawartych w moim tekście „Filozofia jako ćwiczenie duchowe – coachingowy model uprawiania filozofii”. W drugim paragrafie przedstawiono ontologię Platona z perspektywy filozofii procesu. Widziana z tej perspektywy ontologia Platona jest rodzajem metafizyki doświadczenia – byt nazywany przez Platona „prawdziwym” nie jest rzeczywistością abstraktów, lecz tym, czego doświadczamy w chwilach, gdy rozpoznajemy znaczenie konkretnych sytuacji życiowych w perspektywie Dobra. Filozofia Platona okazuje się rodzajem filozoficznej logoterapii – praktyki duchowej polegającej na uwalnianiu umysłu przez odwracanie go od pato-logicznych pseudoznaczeń w stronę Sensu. Przyjęcie tej perspektywy oznacza uznanie doświadczenia medytacyjnego za punkt odniesienia refleksji filozoficznej. Oznacza też skierowanie uwagi w stronę doświadczenia wewnętrznego, również w stronę odczuć płynących z ciała jako istotnego składnika tego doświadczenia. Jako konkretny przykład starożytnego coachingu filozoficznego opisano w tekście stoicką praktykę „wytyczania teraźniejszości”. Dla zilustrowania idei współczesnego coachingu filozoficznego opisano ćwiczenie „Moje tu i teraz” – jedno z narzędzi opracowanych na potrzeby indywidualnej praktyki coachingowej. Opiera się ono na założeniach zarysowanej wcześniej ontologii doświadczenia. Tekst kończy opis kompetencji uzyskiwanych przez absolwenta kierunku Coaching filozoficzny.
Prakseologia w coachingu jako interaktywnym procesie odkrywania zasobów i możliwości Coachee
Authors: Musioł Anna
Published: March 2019

Prakseologia jako praktyka czynu zainicjowana przez francuskiego intelektualistę Alfreda Espinasa i Aleksandra Bogdanowa (Malinowskiego) to nauka o wszelkich sprawnościach ludzkiej działalności. Jak piszą Tadeusz Kotarbiński oraz Tadeusz Pszczołowski: będąc metodologią ogólną, której działania koncentrują się wokół wyodrębniania i systematyzacji bogactwa różnorodnych form działania, prakseologia staje się także próbą ich usprawnienia i upraktycznienia. To upraktycznienie zakłada analizę rzeczywistości oraz przyjęcie pewnych sposobów obchodzenia się z zasobami możliwości. Zatem prakseologia już jako tektologia każe nazywać wszelkie możliwe działanie organizowaniem lub łączeniem w całość bogatego i skomplikowanego spiętrzenia zasobów. Jednym z efektów tego spiętrzenia powinna być gwarancja dopasowania środków do założonego celu, a zarazem towarzysząca temu okazja uzyskania optimum rezultatu.    Artykuł pokazuje, że elementy prakseologiczne uobecniają się współcześnie w procesie coachingowym. Dzięki temu coaching jako aktywna forma komunikacji dialogicznej jest obecnie jedną z najskuteczniejszych form wspierania drugiego człowieka w samodzielnym odkrywaniu własnych zdolności oraz potencjału zasobów pozwalających sprawnie realizować wyznaczane cele.

Published: March 2019

The aim of this work is to develop approaches to automate the process of installing sensors for monitoring "smart home". The article briefly describes the emergence of the smart home system and the further spread of this system in Russia. “Smart Home” is a home control system that provides automatic and well-coordinated operation of a whole complex of systems, in particular, lighting control, which requires the use of correct placement of sensors. Such a system can provide benefits for people with disabilities. The sensor layout will optimize energy consumption. The paper gives a brief description of the classic sensor sets for a smart home. A classic set for a smart home are: control center, cameras, modules in the socket, wall switches, control modules and various sensors. The classification of sensors according to various characteristics and the method of connection is given. The article focuses on the placement of motion and light sensors, which are often the basis of a “smart home” and are used to control various devices. This paper describes the classic smart home circuit and lists its main components. An algorithm is proposed for determining the need for using standard models of motion and illumination sensors and their quantitative ratio from the room analysis, namely: the type of room (residential, non-residential), the size of the room, the presence of window and door openings. The presented algorithm contains the following steps: preliminary analysis of the room in which it is necessary to install motion and light sensors, take into account the characteristics of the sensors. Brief results of testing are given. This work shows that it is quite possible to arrange a “smart home” complex in an individual residential structure.
