Objective: The goal of this paper was to evaluate the validity of foot and ankle offset (FAO) measurements in the setting of severe foot and ankle deformities. Methods: This study included 57 feet (36 patients) that had a history of severe cavovarus deformity. Each participant received a weight-bearing computed tomography (WBCT) scan that was then used to measure FAO. This measurement was performed once using the traditional measurement technique and two additional times using a modified technique that allows for rotational correction of the images to align the talus. Results: Traditional FAO (TFAO) and modified FAO (MFAO) were found to have a significant correlation with one another (r (54)=0.92, p<0.001). There was a high positive correlation between the variables of the two techniques (r=0.92) with the intraobserver reliabilities (ICC=0.95) for FAO measurements. The agreement between TFAO and Modified foot and ankle offset (MFAO) measurements was also considered excellent (ICC=0.99). Conclusion: The MFAO method provides statistically similar FAO measurements compared to the TFAO method in this population. Thus, the TFAO method could potentially expand its patient population to provide surgeons with a reliable tool for assessing more severe deformities. Level of Evidence IV; Retrospective Study.

The article defines network technologies that are appropriate to use in the practice of educational training and retraining of military doctors: network technologies for the organization of distance learning, scientific and educational social networks; network technologies supporting the training and retraining of military doctors; digital libraries. It was found that network technology provides a number of new opportunities for creating an open ICT-oriented educational environment for the training and retraining of military doctors. It is specified that the use of network technologies involves compliance with the agreed rules of online behavior: understanding the difference between public online space and personal space; the ability to analyze the meaningful essence of information that is aimed at public distribution, and that is purely personal; ability to critically evaluate information before publication, focus on constructive (positive) "presence" in the network; understanding that any online action can have public feedback; understanding that today the network image is also one's own reputation.
Mathematical modeling of the workload processing in the information and communication network
Authors: Prokopets Nataliia , Globa Larysa
Published: December 2022

The functioning of a modern information and communication network is impossible without software, which partially replaces specialized equipment when solving network tasks. These tasks form a workload that needs to be processed by a distributed server infrastructure within the network. There are requirements for each type of workload regarding the quality of its processing (maximum service time, permissible losses, etc.). Thus, there is a need to establish relationships between quality indicators and parameters of the processing system to ensure the fulfillment of these requirements using mathematical modeling. The paper proposes a mathematical model of a distributed workload processing system in the information and communication network as a queuing system. Unlike known models, the proposed model considers the possible variable nature of the input workload arrival rate and parallelization methods that may be applied to the software that implements it. Within the modeling process, a method of transition from a non-stationary non-ordinary incoming queries’ flow to an ordinary stationary flow is proposed. Based on the constructed mathematical model, a complex method of energy-efficient workload processing has been developed. A laboratory experiment has proven the efficiency of the proposed complex method and the mathematical model’s adequacy in its basis.

Published: December 2022

A method of managing a wireless sensor network of optical-electronic stations (OES) using LoRa technology is developed. Within the framework of the system of optic-electronic stations, two subnets are functioning: the video stream transmission network and the control network, which is the subject of this work. The main requirements for the control network were the following: the ability to ensure performance in radio-electronic suppression conditions, the provision of high-range radio communication, the ability to operate in conditions of dense urban development, the network energy efficiency, and the high stealth level. Technologies available on the market for building sensor networks were analyzed. LoRa technology was chosen for these purposes considering the established requirements for the network. The current network layout was created based on EBYTE E32-433T20DT LoRa radio modules. The basis of the developed method is two classes of commands for configuring the network of optical-electronic stations. The first class of commands is network management commands, operations to add and remove devices from the general routing table. The second class of commands controls communication modules and microcontrollers, changing their configuration parameters. The OES network’s control algorithms were developed based on these commands. Created commands and algorithms helped significantly facilitate and speed up the operator’s initialization and network configuration process and are already used in the current layout of the optical-electronic station system.
How can we trust someone who does not know who he or she is?

We are experiencing an exciting time of revived jeal and enthusiasm where we are preparing to defend, refine and preserve our heritage, physical, cultural and ideological. We understand that with centuries of disturbed history of our civilization in India, destruction of centers of learning and suppressed psyche, the tradition has often labeled and proved untrustworthy. We do understand that due to various vested interests the purity in Vedic interpretations is also lost. To be able to reach any Vedic jhana, the internalization or interpretation presupposes the freedom from any type of intellectual prison. The spillover between the states of mind has been one of the major stumbling block and cause of deteriorations in Vedic interpretations. The standard that can be set to accept the acceptability itself, is whether the interpreter has broken the walls of his intellectual prison before venturing into Vedic interpretation?

Vedic Hridaya Chakshu : Why is mathematics so effective in Exploring Nature
Authors: Shankar Sati
Published: December 2022

Mathematics rightly viewed, wrote Russell in his 'Study of Mathematics', 'possesses not only truth, but supreme beauty cold and austere, like that of sculpture, without appeal to any part of our weaker nature, without the gorgeous trappings of painting or music, yet sublimely pure, and capable of a stern perfection such as only the greatest art can show." The physicist Eugene Wigner once remarked that [t]he miracle of the appropriateness of the language of mathematics for the formulation of the laws of (Nature) physics is a wonderful gift which we neither understand nor deserve.' Steven Weinberg is another physicist puzzled with it, put, "It is very strange that mathematicians are led by their sense of mathematical beauty to develop formal structures that physicists only later find useful, even where the mathematician had no such goal in mind." The question is , how does the mathematician, who is more like an artist than an explorer, while working in abstract, away from nature, arrive at the most appropriate descriptions of nature? Nearly 82 years ago, Eugene Wigner set the puzzle up in his famous paper to call it "the unreasonable effectiveness of mathematics". It is a puzzle well known to the scientists and philosophers, but caught very little attention in the philosophical literature, which may be due to the presuppositions in the paradigm shift from a formalist philosophy of mathematics, and the rise of anti-realist paradigm in the philosophy of Mathematics. Whatever it may be, but when we look at the issue from our Vedic perspective, we find that the Vedas and Brahmanas provide irrefutable foundations where there can be no place for this so-called puzzle. In this paper we present some of the key ideas from the Vedas and Shatpath Brahmana, which provide the very foundation, a misunderstanding, of which leads to such a puzzle.

Ruinas y residuos en Tierra Amarilla de Germán Marín y Nuestra parte de noche de Mariana Enríquez
Authors: Ruiz Figueroa Carlos Enrique , Fuentes Leal Mariela Jinett
Published: December 2022

Algunas novelas de la última década dan cuenta de antecedentes históricos y políticos de las dictaduras y posdictaduras de Chile y Argentina. Se trata de poéticas que exponen la ruindad sociopolítica a través del empleo de la violencia y la persistencia del mal a cargo de actuantes de poderes hegemónicos en plena democracia en dichos países. Sobre la base de lo anterior, este artículo examina las novelas Tierra Amarilla (2014) de Germán Marín y Nuestra parte de noche (2019) de Mariana Enríquez como expresiones de un proceso de degradación de los personajes desde el plano corporal al mental. Ello a partir de las acciones de agentes del mal —humanos y fuerzas metafísicas— en sociedades corrompidas y paisajes ruinosos, en que el recurso del mito aparece como una estrategia geopolítica de tales agentes para mantener y validar su poder hegemónico, provocando un carácter impredecible e inestable en los personajes cuando avanzan a un estado terminal ruinoso, es decir, a una condición corrosiva de residuo tóxico, por lo que causan daño por un actuar pasivo de complicidad criminal en Tierra Amarilla, y un actuar activo perpetrado a través de la violencia en Nuestra parte de noche.
Formas discursivas en la prensa popular peruana en la década de 1990
Authors: Torres Vitolas Miguel Ángel
Published: December 2022

En la década de 1990, en el Perú la llamada prensa popular, prensa sensacionalista o prensa chicha extendió su presencia en el espacio comunicacional de modo notable. Si bien ello se vio entonces ligado a relaciones de presión y de clientelismo con el gobierno de Fujimori, la presencia de esta prensa se observa aún hoy. Nuestra investigación aborda desde una perspectiva semiótica las características enunciativas que se fueron consolidando en ese período. Antes que un análisis de contenido, la investigación emprende una descripción de las estrategias enunciativas en juego con el fin de poder bosquejar a través de ellas el contrato de lectura informativo que se configuró. Seguimos para ello el enfoque semiótico de entender la enunciación como una representación: una enunciación enunciada. A partir de un corpus establecido con los diarios más leídos de dicho período (Ojo, Extra y Ajá), hemos buscado señalar la tipología textual frente a la que se situó al lector y las formas enunciativas que configuraron dentro de dichas manifestaciones. El estudio ha permitido establecer la presencia manifiesta de un género textual particular consolidado desde mediados del período estudiado, la columna de chismes, en las secciones de deportes y espectáculos, así como una presencia mayor de la entrevista.
The Devil and the Mullah: Satirical Personae in the Pre-Revolutionary Press of the South Caucasus
Authors: Caffee Naomi , Denis Robert
Published: December 2022

Oskar Schmerling (1863–1938) was a Tbilisi-based artist best known for his illustrations and caricatures in Armenian, Azeri, Georgian, and Russian-language satirical periodicals during the Russian Empire’s post-1905 “press boom.” His work provided a powerful visual component to hotly debated issues of the day, including language policy, ethnic conflict, educational reform, religious practices, Russian cultural and political hegemony, and more. In this article we analyze Schmerling’s use of two satirical personae—the titular devil from the Georgian journal eshmakis matrakhi (Devil’s Whip) and the mullah from the Azeri journal Molla Näsräddin—in light of the diverse cultural and religious communities that comprised his readership and intellectual milieu. Drawing from scholarship on trickster figures in oral, print, and performative genres around the world, we investigate the ways Schmerling used the personae of the devil and the mullah to simultaneously represent the world from more than one perspective, and to speak to communities with varying political agendas in the midst of a collapsing empire. We argue that Schmerling’s work reveals cross-cultural artistic and intellectual connections that contributed to significant political and cultural change in the South Caucasus, culminating in revolutionary activity and the rise of nationalist movements.

Published: December 2022

Problem. The article presents the results of studies of the stability of a three-layer cylindrical shell. Factors that have a significant impact on the strength and stability of the three-layer cylindrical shell were taken into account, namely the reduced modules of elasticity of the three-layer wall. Goal. The purpose of the study is to develop a methodology for calculating the stability of a three-layer cylindrical shell, which will significantly improve the calculation practice of such structures in relation to determining the critical external pressure for a three-layer cylindrical shell. Methodology. The method of variational calculation using the Euler equation of the mixed variational problem was used to determine the critical pressure. To determine the stability of the three-layer cylindrical shell, those factors that have a significant impact on its strength and stability were taken into account, namely the reduced modulus of elasticity of the three-layer wall. The bending stiffness Dh was replaced by the bending stiffness of the three-layer shell taking into account the shear deformation. Results. The current state of the issue of the stability of a three-layer cylindrical shell has been studied. Using the methods of variational calculation with the Euler equation of the mixed variational problem, the equation of the condition of equality of the internal and external forces of the orthotropic structure, which is in a state of indifferent equilibrium with radial displacement, is compiled. Accepting the previously obtained equation for radial movements and substituting it into the equation for the potential energy of the system per unit length, we obtained the equation for determining the critical pressure. The obtained analytical solution was tested for the design of the crane running wheel, which has an elastic insert. We will get pkr=1267 MPa. For crane running wheels, the allowable pressure of the wheel on the rail is taken within 250 MPa, that is, we have a reserve of stability of the rail nc=1267/250=5.1. As you can see, the margin of stability is more than sufficient. In addition, a comparison was made between the obtained method of calculating the stability of a three-layer cylindrical shell and the method described in [20]. Originality. A new method of calculating a three-layer cylindrical shell under the action of external pressure has been developed. A quantitative assessment of the critical pressure of the traveling crane wheel, which has an elastic insert, was carried out. Practical value A technique for determining the critical pressure of a three-layer cylindrical structure under the action of external pressure has been created.

Problem. The article presents the results of studies of the impact of kinematics of earthmoving equipment on the process of vibratory soil cutting during trenchless laying of linear underground communications and drainage systems. From the conducted review, it was established that the basis of the technology is the formation of a narrow gap in the soil with the help of a knife working body. This process requires significant energy costs and traction efforts. The task of reducing them is important and urgent, both from a scientific point of view and from a practical position. Goal. The purpose of the study is to develop scientifically based recommendations on reducing the resistance of deep cutting of the soil by the knife working body due to its vibrational and oscillatory movements. Methodology. Theoretical studies are based on ideas about the theory of soil mechanics, the theory of mechanisms and machines, and the influence of vibration on work processes. Results. Based on the established value of the path and speed of movement of the knife working body at any moment of time from its oscillation frequency, amplitude at fixed values of the movement speed, the direction of oscillations is determined depending on the ratio of translational and vibrational speeds, for which two typical cases were considered. In the first case, the movement of the knife working body will always be translational and the process will resemble the "pressing" of a stamp with variable effort in a certain period of time. During the second movement of the equipment, in some time segments, the values of the movement of the edge may become the reverse, in the direction of the movement of the machine. That is, the cutting process in this case is similar to "chopping" with a frequency of blows equal to the frequency of the knife's oscillations. Analytical research on the known indicators of the soil cutting process efficiency found that a decrease in the translational speed simultaneously reduces the static cutting power, which can affect the total energy consumption of the process as a whole, taking into account the power consumption of the vibration mechanism drive. Practical meaning. The analysis of the influence of the kinematics of the working equipment on the processes of deep cutting of soil made it possible to obtain the conditions for the effective use of the vibration drive, which is aimed at reducing the traction force and the energy consumption of the process.

Problem. With the experience of special purpose vehicles operating in the field, there is a problem of electrical start-up of diesel engines at low temperatures. It is caused by an increase in the motor oil viscosity, as well as a decrease in the starter batteries capacity. Goal. The goal of the work is to investigate the possibilities of using molecular energy storage for the reliable diesel engines start-up, including in low temperatures, aimed at improving the efficiency of the electrical start-up systems of special purpose vehicles diesel engines, which are operated in the field. Methodology. Methods of mathematical statistics were used in the study of the characteristics of molecular energy storage. When justifying the characteristics of the diesel engines electrical start-up system with molecular energy storage, mathematical methods of operations research were applied. Methods of mathematical analysis were used in the development of a diesel start-up system scheme. Results. The functional scheme of the electrical start-up system of diesel with a molecular energy storages is proposed. Originality. There are the known ways to facilitate the launch of diesel engines in low temperatures, such as the engine pre-growing or the heating of the air entering the engine combustion chambers, but they lead to a rapid discharge of starter batteries. This may make it impossible to start the diesel engine. The use of molecular energy storage will ensure a reliable start-up of a cold diesel engine. Practical meaning. The use of a combined electricity source, consisting of batteries and molecular energy storage, provides a reliable start-up of the engine in extreme temperature conditions, reducing the batteries capacity, increasing their service life, and cutting down operating costs.

Problem. Strengthening requirements for reducing CO2 emissions requires reducing fuel consumption in cars with internal combustion engines. One of the ways to solve this problem is to equip cars with a hybrid power plant that combines an internal combustion engine and an electric motor. A classic hybrid vehicle requires two energy sources: a fuel tank for the internal combustion engine and a power battery for the electric motor. Therefore, hybrid vehicle has a more complex design and a relatively high cost. A mild hybrid vehicle is a new concept of a hybrid vehicle for urban use that is emerging today. Such MHVs have a simpler design and also allow you to save up to 30% of fuel in urban driving mode. Goal. The purpose of the work is to improve the economic and environmental characteristics of a mild hybrid car, due to the use of an inexpensive asynchronous electric motor with frequency control in the scalar mode, as well as more effective use of power plant control system algorithms. Methodology. Analytical research methods were used to develop algorithms for effective use of the power plant in acceleration, uniform motion, regenerative braking, and stopping modes. Mathematical modeling and calculation methods were used to justify the use of an asynchronous motor for the power plant of a mild hybrid vehicle. Results. The use of a low-power asynchronous motor in the power plant of a mild hybrid vehicle is mathematically justified. The use of the principle of rational amplitude-frequency scalar control is proposed. An algorithm and a scheme for the implementation of an induction motor control system with support for the optimal power factor have been developed. Originality. Instead of using a valve synchronous electric motor with an expensive control system, it is proposed to use an asynchronous motor, which has advantages in the power plant of a mild hybrid vehicle. An asynchronous motor will allow the use of effective algorithms of uniform motion and regenerative braking modes. Practical value. The design of a soft hybrid vehicle with the use of a low-power asynchronous electric motor makes it efficient and cost-effective. The scalar control method of an asynchronous motor, with the slip control, makes it possible to obtain a system with high control quality and lower cost of implementation.
