Compliance And Mental Health in the Workplace: The Need for an Ethical Commitment of Leadership to Prevent Absenteeism Due to Psychic Illness In Public Organisations
Authors: Cavalieri Davi Valdetaro Gomes
Published: July 2023

This paper aims to study Compliance as an instrument to protect psychological integrity in the work environment, with the potential to reduce absenteeism rates due to mental illness in Public Organisations. The problem in relation to which the present research intends to investigate is summarized through the following question: why can Compliance Programmes be instruments capable of promoting psychological integrity in the work environment and reducing absenteeism rates due to illness psychic? To answer the research question, the work will be divided into two parts: a first theoretical part, to deepen knowledge about Compliance applied to the protection of human life in the work environment; and another empirical part, to identify absenteeism rates and the main factors that lead to absence from work due to mental health in the Federal Attorney General's Office, a body linked to the Attorney General’s Office. Empirical research will be developed through the use of quantitative and qualitative techniques, with data collection and a structured interview with Federal Prosecutors. To analyse the data obtained in the interview, the technique of content analysis will be used.
Due Diligence - An Approach to Mitigating Risk In Relationships With Third Parties
Authors: Ferreira Renata de Oliveira , Macedo de Melo Fernando Augusto
Published: July 2023

The due diligence process, adopted previously to the relationship with third parties, is an inherent activity to integrity programmes. However, its effectiveness can be questionable, especially to mitigate the risk in third parties relationships and in the potential to cause financial and reputational damage to an organisation. Therefore, this article aims to propose an integrity risk classification with third parties, in order to allow companies to adopt adequate monitoring actions for those most exposed to possible irregularities during this relationship. Firstly, a literature review will be presented, associated with the regulatory framework, in order to show that the adoption of due diligence has become a common practice in compliance programmes, not associated with the results. In the second section, the research proposes to explore third- party integrity assessments which, for the most of it, can be due diligence questionnaires application and performing public data mining (background checks) to classify the integrity risk. In the end, based on a case study, the third section will present a quantitative approach to risk classification, according to the exposure level integrity risk to the company, the capacity monitoring and does not represent an excessive monitoring cost. The article will adopt the deductive method, in order to suggest new hypotheses. It is expected, with the methodology adopted and the results obtained, to contribute to scientific research, the compliance environment, corporate governance and risk management, as corporate mechanisms for the prevention and detection of fraud with third parties.

Published: July 2023

Preventive measures play a crucial role in ensuring the health and productivity of silkworms in silk farming. In this study, we focus on the implementation of preventive works using a mechatronic system to increase the weight of silk. Disinfection is recognized as a vital tool in combating silkworm diseases by neutralizing pathogenic microbes. The disinfection process targets worm houses and areas where disease transmission is more prevalent during warm feeding. By eliminating potential sources of infection, final disinfection is carried out at the end of the current worm feeding season, particularly in locations with a higher incidence of infectious diseases among silkworms. The integration of a mechatronic system in the preventive measures demonstrates its effectiveness in promoting healthier silk production.

Published: July 2023

This research focuses on the implementation of a remote control system in mobile silkworm houses to improve the weight and quality of silk fibers. The use of a lightweight and portable worm house, equipped with a mechatronic system, resulted in significant improvements in the weight and quality parameters of the obtained silk fibers compared to the traditional method. The integration of special sensors within the greenhouse allows for remote monitoring of CO2 levels. In case of CO2 exceeding the permissible limit, the ventilation system can be remotely activated, and it will be deactivated once the CO2 levels return to the normal range. Comparative analysis was conducted between the silk yield from the mobile worm house and other conventional worm houses, demonstrating the favorable outcomes of the portable wormery with the mechatronic system.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE SELECTION OF MODERN BUILDING MATERIALS FOR USE IN THE RESTORATION OF HARD AIRFIELD SURFACES IN CONDITIONS OF ARMED AGGRESSION
Authors: Davydov I. , Kozachuk V. , Khavrych H.
Published: July 2023

In the course of hostilities (especially of high intensity), the Armed Forces of Ukraine will inevitably suffer certain losses of airfields. As a result of the bombing, the hard airfield surfaces were damaged, which hinders the reliable operation of aircraft. As a result, hard airfield surfaces needed restoration, and for this, materials with very strict requirements must be used. In recent years, modern modified structural materials have been offered in Ukraine, which make it possible to significantly reduce the recovery time: if the work is properly organized, the time can be no more than 7–10 days, provided that the required strength values are met characteristics – in compression, and in tension they are fully achieved. The consequence is a slight interruption of flights at the airfield, which is very relevant in the conditions of hostilities.

The main factors affecting the destruction of hard airfield surfaces in peacetime are natural influences, as well as loads during take-offs and landings of aircraft. Among the operational factors, mechanical effects, as well as the force and the temperature effects of the gas jet of aircraft jet engines should be singled out. If any damage to the runway surface, measures must be taken to eliminate it immediately, otherwise there is a risk of accidental damage and closure of the runway for long-term repairs. But in case of detection of malfunctions that threaten the safety of flights, they are eliminated immediately before the start of flights. This is a very important point in the operation of hard airfield surfaces: it determines the need to use such materials for the restoration of runways, which in the shortest possible time acquire the necessary values of the operational characteristics of hard concrete surfaces.

A wide variety of materials can be used for repair work, but if there are two limitations – the period before the start of operation and the duration of the work, then it is most appropriate to use modern materials. Such repair materials must meet the requirement: the strength of the materials must provide a load-bearing capacity no less than the existing airfield pavements and meet the requirements.
METHODOLOGICAL AND TECHNOLOGICAL RESEARCH BASICS OF COMBAT PARTS OF MEANS OF DEFEAT
Authors: Kryzhanivskyi Ye. , Perehonchuk V. , Pechura D. , Nikitchenko A.
Published: July 2023

Modern combat weapons are one of the important and specific types of military equipment that largely determine the combat potential of the Armed Forces, and control and forecasting of their technical condition is an important component of ensuring serviceability. By the technical condition, we mean the totality of their properties, that change during operation and are characterized at a certain point in time by the defining parameters (signs) defined by the technical documentation. Given that the quantitative relationship between the chemical resistance of explosives and the terms of operation has not been established to date, it is necessary to conduct appropriate laboratory and experimental studies to assess their technical condition.

The article provides the methodical and technological bases of remote sampling of explosive substances of a given shape and mass, which are used to determine: the ignition temperature and the amount of energy released; mass fractions of moisture, volatile substances and components; chemical stabilty, acidity, etc. As an example, the process of sampling from the warhead of a guided missile is shown.

The study of combat units is carried out taking into account the features of the design and the action of the damage factors. High-explosive, fragmentation and cumulative targets have been developed for this purpose. Explosiveness, fragmentation (the number of useful fragments per 1 kg of charge) and cumulativeness (penetration depth) are used as the main parameters that determine their technical condition. The article provides examples of tests of various combat units and the results of the effects of factors affecting the target.

The implementation of the main provisions of the methodical and technological foundations of the research of combat units made it possible to make informed decisions about the possibility, expediency and features of their further exploitation.
A METHODOLOGICAL APPROACH TO DETERMINING THE PRIORITY OF DIRECTIONS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SYSTEM OF WEAPONS AND MILITARY TECHNOLOGY TESTS IN THE CONTEXT OF DEFENSE PLANNING
Authors: Pavlenko A. , Larin V. , Haponenko H.
Published: July 2023

In order to form the basis for solving the problematic issues of the development of the OVT test system in the context of defense planning, the authors proposed for the first time a methodical approach to determining the priorities of the system’s development.

The proposed methodological approach involves solving the problem of discrete multi-criteria decision- making based on the results of a comparative analysis, taking into account the priority of measures with limited financial and other resources.

To solve the problem, the article defines an approximate list of measures for the development of the experimental and testing base and infrastructure, on the basis of which a set of development options can be formed. A set of indicators for the evaluation of alternative development options has been formed in its preliminary form, which contains indicators of the prospects for the implementation of OVT development projects and the characteristics of options for the development of the experimental and testing base and infrastructure.

The methodical approach proposed in the article can be used as the basis of the methodology for determining the priorities of the development of the OVT testing system. The development of the specified methodology involves further research and determination of criteria for evaluating alternative options, selection and application of a method for solving the problem of discrete multi-criteria decision-making, analysis and generalization of the obtained results.

Quality of Life among Children with Osteogenesis Imperfecta Receiving Bisphosphonate Therapy Before and during the 1st Year of the COVID-19 Pandemic in Dr. Soetomo Hospital, Surabaya
Authors: Mustikasari Rahma Ira , Rochmah Nur , Faizi Muhammad , Irwanto Irwanto
Published: July 2023

BACKGROUND: Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a chronic illness caused by a connective tissue disorder that may lead to frequent fractures. Therefore, it may influence the quality of life (QoL). The study on QoL among children with OI during the coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) pandemic is still limited.
AIM: This study aims to evaluate QoL before and during the COVID-19 pandemic in children with OI.
METHODS: This cross-sectional study took place in the Pediatric Endocrinology Outpatient Clinic at Dr. Soetomo General Hospital, Surabaya, in 2020. The pre-pandemic data came from 2019 medical records. The questionnaire used was the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL) 4.0 generic core. Twenty-two patients joined the study; 11/22 of them were girls.
RESULTS: The mean age, fracture, and frequency of zoledronic acid treatment were 6.9 years old, 2.5×/year, and 7.1×/year, respectively. The PedsQL comparisons before and during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic in each dimension were: Physical (49.57 vs. 42.76; p = 0.001), emotional (63.41 vs. 54.54; p = 0.001), social (58.86 vs. 53.86; p = 0.015), and school functioning (66.13 vs. 56.74; p = 0.001), respectively. The most affected dimension was school functioning (mean difference (minimum–maximum): (−9.39) (−14.28–[−4.49]), whereas the physical, emotional, and social functioning were 6.81 (3.43–10.19), 8.86 (5.06–12.67), and −5.00 (−8.93–(−1.07)), respectively.
CONCLUSION: The QoL in children with OI during the COVID-19 pandemic was worst, especially in the school functioning dimension. Online consultation options may be beneficial to improving the QoL.

Published: July 2023

Individual sorting and identification of thousands of insects collected in mass trapping biosurveillance programs is a labor intensive and time-consuming process. Metabarcoding, which allows for the simultaneous identification of multiple individuals in a single mixed sample, has the potential to expedite this process. However, detecting all the species present in a bulk sample can be challenging. In this study, we quantified the effectiveness of metabarcoding at detecting all species in six different mock communities of xylophagous cerambycid beetles. No significant differences in the number of species detected were observed between MinION, Illumina, and IonTorrent sequencing technologies. However, a greater number of individuals was detected and identified to species using MinION. In addition, the proportion of reads assigned to the species level was higher with Illumina technology. The three sequencing technologies also showed similar results in detecting and identifying closely related species and species at low abundance. The capture method greatly influences sample preservation and detection. Indeed, individuals captured using monopropylene and water had both lower DNA concentration and species detection rates compared to individuals killed using just an insecticide without any collection medium.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the reliability and validity of the Turkish version of the Stigma Resistance Scale in patients with psychiatric disorders. This methodological study included 190 patients diagnosed with various psychiatric disorders in a psychiatry outpatient clinic of two hospitals in Turkey. The data were analyzed using SPSS and LISREL software. Explanatory and confirmatory factor analyses, Cronbach's alpha coefficients, and test-retest methods were used to determine the validity and reliability of the scale. The Cronbach's alpha coefficient of the scale was 0.89 for the entire scale and ranged between 0.72 and 0.82 for the five subscales; the item-total point correlations were between 0.43 and 0.63; and the correlation value of the test-retest was 0.78. The results of the explanatory factor analysis revealed that a five-factor structure, with factor loadings in the range of 0.44 to 0.70, explained 60.11% of the total variance. According to the results, acceptable adaptation values were computed (χ

Published: July 2023

Russia has nearly the highest incidence of suicide among children and teenagers in the world. We attempted to create one of the most comprehensive in-depth reviews on this important topic, which is highly relevant for accelerating progress in reducing the thousands of suicides of children and adolescents, most of which are the result of easily preventable or treatable conditions. We analyzed the published data (in both English and Russian) on the prevalence of suicide in minors, current trends related to the phenomenon, and its possible causes. This report shows that suicide is the leading cause of death in Russia for children and teenagers, with the rate among girls exceeding that of boys. The suicide rate in this age category has increased in the last decade and is still growing. We hope that this report will assist health care providers in identifying and managing Russian adolescents at risk for suicide.

El bando de 25 de junio de 1812 y sus críticos: un debate entre la defensa del fuero eclesiástico y las exigencias bélicas en Nueva España
Authors: Martín Blázquez Francisco Miguel
Published: July 2023

Este trabajo abordará el impacto del bando de gobierno promulgado por el virrey Venegas el 25 de junio de 1812 entre diferentes sectores letrados. Produjo disputas donde se inmiscuyeron juristas e integrantes del clero novohispano que mostraron discrepancias sobre los costes de ciertas políticas encaminadas al mantenimiento del statu quo virreinal. Se analizarán textos producidos en el seno del debate por la conservación o no del fuero eclesiástico frente a una nueva cultura de orden tras el estallido de la rebelión insurgente y el inicio del conflicto armado.
The Test Pilot Role in Risk Management of Helicopter Design and Test
Authors:   Sikorsky Aircraft, Blair David
Published: July 2023

This paper presents the unique perspective and role of the test pilot in helicopter design and test risk reductions efforts. The system safety process provides a framework to show points of contribution during design and risk reduction (mishap prevention) in developmental, engineering and production rotorcraft flight operations. Taking a historic perspective of risk reduction during test, chief engineers who were also test pilots had an intuitive understanding of the risks and mitigations present during flight testing. With the specialization of both engineering disciplines and test pilot skills, a gap has emerged in the mutual understanding between the two roles. Using the system safety process can help fill that gap and provides an opportunity to highlight risks and mitigations in aircraft design and test. The intent of this paper is to encourage use of the system safety process and specifically early and frequent test pilot participation in risk management strategies during the design and test phases of aircraft development.
On the Integration of Structural Loads Analysis with Structural Flight Testing for Improved Fatigue Methodologies
Authors:   US Army CCDC AvMC, Benton Robert
Published: July 2023

This paper presents three strategies of integrating structural loads analysis with structural flight tests with a goal of increasing confidence without increasing flight test costs. The strategies considered in this paper are direct substitution, normalized load spectra, and loads interpolation. Discussion includes impacts on the fatigue methodology and analysis validation associated with each strategy. The paper also explores potential benefits and challenges for each strategy. While the direct substitution strategy requires minimal changes to the fatigue methodology to apply load factors for greater confidence, this strategy also requires an extensive validation effort. Each of the other two strategies reduces the extent of the validation effort, but also requires changes in the fatigue methodology and industry consensus. Finally, for normalized load spectra and loads interpolation strategies, the paper discusses the relationship of each strategy to loads monitoring and estimation.

Published: July 2023

Advanced structural analysis methods, known as progressive damage and failure analysis (PDFA) tools, are being developed to predict initiation and propagation of damage under repeated loading based on capturing individual and interacting damage modes. This work shows the ability of the PDFA implemented in CDMat software developed at the University of Texas Arlington Advanced Materials and Structures Lab (AMSL) to predict strength and fatigue failure of a Common Feature Test Component (CFTC) - representative of flight-critical structural attributes and failure modes - without a priori knowledge of the test result. CFTC advanced structural features include a composite skin made of unidirectional tape, a fabric hat stiffener, and a mechanically fastened aluminum rib. CFTC, developed by Boeing under the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) Composite Airframe Life Extension (CALE) Program, Assessing the Durability and Damage Tolerance of Advanced Composite Structural Features, has been the most complex PDFA validation article to date.
Influence of Cycle Counting methods on Fatigue Life Estimation of Critical Rotorcraft Components
Authors:   Georgia Institute of Technology, Shah Aarohi , Ruzzene Massimo , Rimoli Julian
Published: July 2023

We present an analysis of the influence of various cycle counting approaches on the estimated fatigue life for critical rotorcraft components. The entire study is demonstrated using the pitch link of a utility helicopter similar to the UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter as a representative component. Different counting methods predict fatigue life differently due to the varied fundamental parameters or approaches they take to characterize the stress profile. Hence, it becomes vital to choose an appropriate method for a particular application so that it does not over or under predict fatigue life during the design process. Based on this, we investigated four methods namely, Rainflow, Peak, Level and Range counting methods using the stresses developed in the pitch link due to aerodynamic maneuvers. Cycle counts obtained were used in a high cycle fatigue model to estimate cycles/blocks to failure. We also performed a sensitivity analysis to understand the effect of changing vehicle control input parameters on the prediction by counting methods.

Published: July 2023

Within the scope of the study presented in this paper, load carrying capacity and buckling behavior of a stiffened aluminum panel designed by adopting current design application and 'Post-Buckling Design' approach were investigated experimentally and numerically. The test specimen that is stabilized by Z-type stiffeners and manufactured from aluminum 2024 T3 Clad material was tested under compression load. Buckling behavior was observed by means of 3 - dimensional digital image correlation (DIC) and strain gauge pairs. The experimental study was followed by developing an efficient and reliable finite element model whose ability to predict behavior of the stiffened panel used for compression test. While finite element model was being constructed, non-linear behavior associated with material and geometry was considered. Experimental and numerical results in terms of load - shortening curve, strain-load curves and buckling mode shapes were compared for verification. It is concluded that 'Post-Buckling Design' approach proved its structural capability by giving a safe operating area after initial buckling to collapse.
Parallel Sensitivity Analysis of Rotor Blade Cross-sections
Authors:   University of Maryland, Callejo Alfonso , Bauchau Olivier , Diskin Boris
Published: July 2023

Designing mechanical systems in a robust way requires computational tools that not only conduct the direct analysis (aerodynamic, structural, etc.), but can also carry out a robust sensitivity analysis of the outputs with respect to the design parameters. This is especially the case for highly nonlinear, multidisciplinary systems such as helicopter rotors. The structural analysis aspect of rotor blade design has been comprehensively studied in the literature, as shown by the multiple software packages available. On the other hand, very few instances of general-purpose sensitivity analysis tools exist. This is not the case in the aerodynamics area, where most software packages already provide design sensitivities. Building upon a recently developed tool for the adjoint sensitivity analysis of beam cross-sections with respect to material properties, this paper presents a systematic evaluation of its parallel efficiency. Both OpenMP and MPI libraries are used to run the code in parallel on examples of varying size, and the results are compared with those obtained through parallel numerical differentiation (real and complex). The results show that the adjoint method is more efficient than both complex- and real-step differentiation methods, and almost as accurate as complex-step differentiation.
An Analysis and Classification Process towards the Qualification of Autonomous Systems in Army Aviation
Authors:   US Army CCDC AvMC, Copeland Robert
Published: July 2023

Beyond the original philosophical reasoning by Immanuel Kant (1778), autonomy has a foundation in experimental psychology and computer science (Sheridan and Verplanck, 1978). Technological research has expanded rapidly as computer technology advanced and became more readily available. As a result, there are several ways to define autonomy across various domains such as the automotive industry and robotics today. This paper adapts the available body of knowledge to develop an analytical airworthiness framework for classifying autonomous functions for use in Army Aviation systems. The framework described comprises four stages, and starts with a clear analysis and allocation of the task(s) to be performed, thereby allowing classification of the type of automation involved. The level of automation can then be evaluated, leading to determination of a means by which the consequences of failure can be identified and used as part of a safety case that forms the basis for airworthiness determinations.
