Development of scientific thought in the field of violation of environmental standards of building legislation
Authors: Kalko D.
Published: February 2023

It is indicated that the legal protection of the natural environment, the provision of rational nature management and environmental safety in construction require not only the proper fulfillment by the subject of environmental legal relations of their rights and obligations, but also their protection from violations by other subjects, renewal of rights and legal interests of the participants of this legal relationship, bringing guilty persons to justice. It is legal responsibility that is the institution of environmental legislation that provides a mechanism for the localization and blocking of illegal behavior and stimulates socially useful actions of a person in the construction sector, is a measure of protection of society and its members from offenses, protects the interests of the individual, society and the state, is a form of the state’s response to violation of the established order of social relations.

The article examines scientific views on the problems of violation of environmental norms of construction legislation, presents the formulation of the author’s term violation of ecological norms of construction legislation. It was determined that crimes in the field of violation of construction legislation are socially dangerous, criminally illegal, intentional or negligent actions (actions or inaction) with the use of construction equipment, construction tools, means, sources, methods and circumstances of their implementation, committed by physical, criminal, official, non-official and private persons.

The author comes to the conclusion that crimes in the field of violation of construction legislation should be understood as socially dangerous, criminally illegal, intentional or negligent actions (actions or inaction) with the use of construction equipment, construction tools, means, sources, methods and circumstances of their implementation, committed physical, judicial, official, non-official and private persons (citizens of Ukraine, citizens of foreign countries, stateless persons and those with dual citizenship) who have reached the age of criminal responsibility for these crimes that encroach on relations regarding conditions (relationships), which ensure the existence of a multifunctional balanced system of vital activity of the animal, plant and human world, its protection, rational use and reproduction of such a single system, which includes a person (natural person), which will guarantee a natural environment that is safe for life and health, and in consequence of preparation, construction, operation and dismantling of construction structures cause significant damage to these relations, provided for by specific articles of the Special Part of the Criminal Code of Ukraine, or put them at risk of causing such significant damage.
Рarties to constitutional proceedings as subjects of proof
Authors: Melenko O.
Published: February 2023

In conditions of concentrated review, the specificity of constitutional proceedings leads to a limitation of the limits of maneuvers provided to participants in the judicial process. Although the subjects of the constitutional process can be defined as real parties, their function remains limited. The existence of a dispute explains and justifies the development of an adversarial procedure that imitates the general principles of procedural law applied in ordinary courts. Constitutional justice has both subjective and objective consequences. As a result, the constitutional process appears as a place of indirect protection of the Constitution, where the individualistic concerns of the parties are mixed with the protection of the common good. Naturally, the parties are the first to be affected by this duality. Their action is primarily aimed at the protection of personal interests, but it also gives the constitutional judge the opportunity to ensure the objective protection of order. Thus, the simultaneous presence of subjective interests and the general interest gives an ambivalent character to constitutional disputes. Although it is impossible to eliminate this duality, it has been possible to give priority to the objective dimension of the dispute. The conflict between the participants in the legal process is consonant with the legal process, it is the origin and driving force of the proceedings. In response to this logic, the founder and legislator tried to recreate before the constitutional courts the conditions for a real dispute between the parties. For this purpose, the constitutional procedural texts define the persons and bodies that have the right to participate in the consideration of the case, taking care of the appointment of participants in the judicial process with opposing interests. Whatever the legal field, the legal process always takes the form of a confrontation, a struggle that takes place with the help of legal arguments. From this point of view, a trial is really a confrontation directed procedure. Proceedings are the arena of this organized struggle between two parties with opposing claims. The constitutional process also follows this model. It should be recognized that the specifics of the judicial process require certain adaptations to the principle of competition, but they do not go so far as to eliminate the structural element of the judicial process, namely the opposition of the parties. In constitutional disputes, the contradiction concerns the divergent interpretation of the Constitution.

Progressivist constitutionalism of Mykhailo Drahomanov
Authors: Byelov D. , Martseliak M.
Published: February 2023

The authors point out that today it is necessary to reconsider the political, philosophical and legal opinion of the leading theorist of Ukrainian constitutionalism of the second half of the 19th century. Mykhailo Drahomanov and the current strengthening of the progressivism movement in the USA, Latin America and Europe, which, probably, can lead to similar trends in Ukraine and to the revival of the current of progressivism in Ukrainian constitutionalism in new circumstances. That is why the article is devoted to the study of the constitutionalist concept of Mykhailo Drahomanov. The paper analyzes the political and philosophical sources and characteristic features of the political and legal thought of an outstanding Ukrainian public and political figure of the second half of the 19th century. A conclusion is made about the evolutionary-socialist (progressive) nature of his constitutional thought.

The authors come to the conclusion that M. Drahomanov was indeed faithful to the liberal-democratic values of freedom of speech, thought, secularization, democracy, local self-government, but at the same time he did not share the value of freedom of entrepreneurship and private property, he did not understand the fundamental relationship between political freedom, according to which he supported, and the market economy, which he considered more of a disaster than a guarantee of constitutionalism. The dominance of the ideology of political freedom in the "Foundations Project" does not reflect the essence of the author's constitutionalism, it is a significant and integral part of it, which serves as a prologue to the implementation of other foundations of building the society dreamed by M. Drahomanov. His ideal of social organization was based on cosmopolitanism and democratic evolutionary socialism, which determines the specificity of this model of constitutionalism, its exclusivity, since in the future constitutionalist thought in Ukraine became more and more polarized - to the left, towards Marxism and populism, to the right - towards conservatism and nationalism. Therefore, M. Drahomanov became the founder of the left tradition in Ukrainian constitutionalism and the only representative of the progressivist trend in this tradition, that is, the trend that represented the evolutionary-democratic wing in the socialist movement and philosophy, which today is gaining strength in the person of such politicians as Bernie Sanders, Alexandria Ocasio- Cortes in the USA or Jean-Luc Mélenchon in France. Given the popularity of progressivism in the world and in Ukraine, Drahomanov's ideas can flourish, reborn in circumstances more favorable to this ideology.

Authors: Boca Marius-Andrei , Sover Alexandru , Slătineanu Laurenţiu
Published: February 2023

Thermoforming is one of the oldest technologies for the manufacture of plastic products. This originates in prehistory, but today, new additive manufacturing technologies can contribute to the production of moulds, tools, or accessories, which can be used in other traditional manufacturing processes. Manufacturing such moulds for thermoforming is a challenging technical problem due to the multitude of equipment, materials, design, and process constraints that must be considered. To identify and organize the large amount of information, it is imperative to implement a method based on stimulating technical creativity. Following the application of the 3-level idea diagram method, the material resources susceptible to experimental testing are established and include equipment, software, materials, tools, and accessories. The current study resulted in the manufacture of a new product that does not exist on the market, namely a thermoformed desktop business card holder.
Effect of Gravitation Modulation on Viscoelastic Nonlinear Ferro-Convection
Authors: Manjula Sivaraj Hajjiurge , Kiran Palle
Published: February 2023

This paper examines a nonlinear investigation of viscoelastic ferromagnetic convection under gravity modulation. A weakly nonlinear instability has been investigated using the perturbation method. Based on the Oldroyd model for ferrofluids, the constitutive equations of the flow model were developed. The coupled system of the Khayat-Lorenz model developed and was numerically solved in the presence of gravity modulation. Heat transfer results are examined for nonlinear theory and neutral stability curves for linear theory. The nonlinear PDE system is transformed into a nonlinear ODE system with similarity transformations up to the second term. The dual effect of the gravity modulation includes stabilizing and destabilizing.

Energy Performance Aspects of Residential Buildings in Latvia
Authors: Kundziņa A. , Geipele I. , Auders M. , Lapuķe S.
Published: February 2023

Measures on increasing energy efficiency is a way for ensuring sustainable energy supply, reducing emission of gases causing the greenhouse effect, improving safety of energy supply, decreasing dependence on import of energy and promoting the EU competitiveness. Improvement of energy performance of buildings as a direction of activities is provided in national policy planning documents of major importance such as the National Energy and Climate Plan for 2021–2030 and the Strategy of Latvia for the Achievement of Climate Neutrality by 2050.

Residential buildings form a considerable part of the total Latvian housing stock – 27 % according to the number of buildings and 44 % according to their area. Therefore, the increase of energy performance of residential buildings is very significant for achieving the national energy saving targets, i.e. a cumulative savings of final energy consumption of about 6 PJ by 2030.

The research analyses the sector of residential buildings, their statistical data, the energy consumption and requirements of the energy performance standards. To characterise this sector more comprehensively, information has been evaluated on energy performance certificates of residential buildings issued during the period from 2016 to 2021, allowing the authors to make general conclusions on the energy performance level of residential buildings and to provide proposals for increasing their energy efficiency.

Authors: Berkache Amar , Amroune Salah , Golbaf Ali , Mohamad Barhm
Published: February 2023

In this article we present an experimental and numerical study of the behavior of the boundary layer type viscous flow in the presence of the thermal effect. The flow was held in a three-dimensional field with a uniform infinite velocity in the case of an adiabatic wall with heat input. The presented experimental work was performed in the Thermal Laboratory (LET) of the Prime Institute of Poitiers (France). It describes the analysis of a turbulent boundary layer created in a wind tunnel on the surface of a flat plate covered with epoxy resin. An HP 6012A power supply system was used to provide circulating heat flux to heat the flat plate to 80Â°C by the Joule effect. The numerical result shows a clear difference in the evolution of the thermal boundary layer between the three temperatures of the wall.
FLEXURAL ANALYSIS OF THERMALLY LOADED SYMMETRIC SANDWICH BEAM
Authors: Kantrao Kulkarni Sanjay , Marotrao Ghugal Yuwaraj
Published: February 2023

In the present paper, an attempt has been made to study the effect of temperature gradient on simply supported symmetric sandwich beam. A Navierâ€™s solution technique is used. The temperature profile is assumed to be linear across the thickness of a sandwich beam. A higher order beam theory (HBT) is used to include the effect of shear deformation on thermal flexural response of the sandwich beam. The theory satisfies the shear stress free boundary condition at the top and bottom surfaces of the sandwich beam. No shear correction factor is required. The principle of virtual work is used to obtain the governing equations and boundary conditions. A program has been developed in FORTRAN-77 to obtain thermal stresses and displacements in the sandwich beam for various aspect ratios. The numerical results are presented for moderately thick and thin sandwich beams to assess the performance of the theory. The validity of the present theory is verified by comparing the results with the results available in the literature. The present results are in good agreement with the results of other theories.

Review on agronomic investigations on cardamom and cardamom-based cropping systems in Karnataka
Authors: Korikanthimath V S , Krishnamurthy K S
Published: February 2023

Small cardamom (Elettaria cardamomum Maton), an eco-friendly high value spice and foreign exchange earner, is a native of Western Ghats of South India. India enjoyed near monopoly in its production till the seventies, but with the emergence of Guatemala as the main competitor, it has been relegated to second position both in production and export. The low production of cardamom up to eighties was due to lack of sound location specific agronomic package of recommendations. Hence, after a detailed survey of entire small cardamom growing areas in India and interaction with cardamom growers and other stake holders, a comprehensive location specific research programme was finalised and carried out for over 25 years. As a consequence of detailed agronomic investigations on cardamom and cardamom-based cropping systems, various agro techniques such as selection of elite lines of cardamom, rapid clonal multiplication technique, nursery techniques, systems and season of planting, irrigation, shade and weed management, apiculture, harvest and post harvest techniques, multistoried cropping system involving cardamom, coffee, arecanut, coconut etc. evolved. These high production technologies were effectively transferred to the cardamom growers based on local specificity which resulted in higher yields (average of 750 kg dry capsules ha-1 and a potential yield of 1945 kg dry capsules in demonstrations in farmers fields in Kodagu, Karnataka) from an initial benchmark average yield of 120-140 kg dry capsules ha-1.

Published: February 2023

Statistical tools such as analysis of variance, correlation, path coefficient analysis, Scott-Knott test and principal component analysis were used in the present study to characterize black pepper verities/hybrids for spike and berry traits. ANOVA indicated that fifteen traits under study were statistically significant. Traits like fresh pericarp weight and dry pericarp weight showed high positive correlation (>0.95) with spike weight. Path coefficient analysis revealed that berry weight and seed size are contributing directly to spike weight. Scott-Knott test identified Panniyur-1 and Nedumchola as the most contrasting genotypes for most number of traits studied. Based on Principal Component Analysis (PCA), first three principal components had an eigen value above unity and explained 88 per cent of cumulative variation. Principal component PC-1 accounted for maximum variation of about 42.4 percent which discriminated the genotypes based on fresh berry weight, dry seed weight and fresh pericarp weight. These traits serve as the selection criteria for improvement of yield in black pepper.

Objetivo: Apresentar trabalhos científicos que mostram o impacto da vacinação quadrivalente contra o HPV na queda da incidência do câncer cervical; como forma de ratificar a importância da prevenção primária em um dos principais problemas de saúde pública na saúde da mulher. Revisão bibliográfica: O câncer de colo uterino é responsável por um número expressivo de mortes de mulheres de diversas faixas etárias em diferentes lugares do mundo. Sua ocorrência tem sido amplamente associada à infecção pelo Papilomavírus Humano (HPV), que ocasiona uma taxa de replicação celular desmedida com evolução tumoral. Entretanto, com o advento das vacinas para alguns genótipos do HPV, o número de casos de câncer cervical associado a essa infecção tem reduzido drasticamente, principalmente, nos países em desenvolvimento. As vacinas atualmente disponíveis no mundo compreendem a bivalente, a quadrivalente e nonavalente. No Brasil, após a inclusão da vacinação contra o HPV no Programa Nacional de Imunização, em 2014, houve redução dos casos de câncer cervical diagnosticados. Considerações finais: Os trabalhos apresentados levam à conclusão de que a vacinação contra o HPV é eficaz em reduzir a incidência das lesões pré-neoplásicas relacionadas ao câncer de colo uterino; o que contribui para a diminuição de morbimortalidade das mulheres vacinadas.

Published: February 2023

Background:

To the best of our knowledge, there are no reports of penetrating orbitocranial injury (POCI) caused by a shoji frame.

Case Description:

A 68-year-old man fell in his living room and was stuck headfirst by a shoji frame. At presentation, marked swelling was noted in the right upper eyelid, with the edge of the broken shoji frame exposed superficially. Computed tomography (CT) revealed a hypodense linear structure located in the upper lateral sector of the orbit, partially protruding into the middle cranial fossa. Contrast-enhanced CT revealed intact ophthalmic artery and superior ophthalmic vein. The patient was managed with frontotemporal craniotomy. The shoji frame was extracted by pushing out the extradurally located proximal edge from the cranial cavity and simultaneously pulling the distal edge from the stab wound in the upper eyelid. Postoperatively, the patient received intravenous antibiotic therapy for 18 days.

Conclusion:

POCI can be caused by shoji frames as a result of an indoor accident. The broken shoji frame is evidently delineated on CT, which can result in prompt extraction.

Background:

Spinal arachnoid cysts (SACs) in adults are typically acquired dural defects following trauma, inflammation, or infection. Brain metastases from breast cancer account for 5–12% of all CNS metastases and are mostly leptomeningeal. Here, the authors reported a 50-year-old female treated for a tentorial metastasis from breast carcinoma that underwent chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Three months later, she presented with a thoracic spinal extradural dumbbell hemorrhagic arachnoid cyst.

Case Description:

A 50-year-old female underwent a left retrosigmoid suboccipital craniectomy for microsurgical removal of a tentorial metastasis attributed to poorly differentiated breast carcinoma (i.e., comedonic pattern). The patient subsequently underwent both chemotherapy and radiotherapy for accompanying bony metastases. Three months later, she experienced the onset of severe posterior thoracic pain. When the thoracic magnetic resonance imaging revealed a hyperintense “dumbbell” extradural T10–T11 lesion, she underwent a T10–T11 laminectomy for marsupialization and excision of the hemorrhagic lesion. The histological examination revealed blood and arachnoid tissue within a benign SAC, without accompanying tumor. Her postoperative course was uneventful, and she was discharged on postoperative day 3.

Conclusion:

A 50-year-old female underwent a left retrosigmoid suboccipital craniectomy for removal of a tentorial metastasis from breast carcinoma, followed by radiation/chemotherapy. Three months later, she hemorrhaged into an MR-documented T10–T11 dumbell extradural SAC that was successfully treated with laminectomy, marsupialization, and excision.

The article deals with theoretical aspects of the financial mechanism of enterprise's activities managing and its role in the organization of financial policy. The elements of the financial mechanism of the enterprise's activities managing are considered. In current conditions of the full-scale russian invasion, the role of the financial management mechanism of the enterprise is becoming particularly relevant and satnds among the main tasks of the modern development of Ukrainian enterprises. The components of the enterprise's financial mechanism are disclosed. The financial mechanism is an integral part of the economic mechanism and represents a set of incentive mechanisms, levers, means, forms and methods of regulating economic processes and relations. The structure of the enterprise's financial mechanism includes five interrelated parts: financial methods; financial leverage; legal support; regulatory support; informational support. The financial mechanism is the most important part of the financial policy, that is, a system of financial levers that ensure organization, planning and stimulation of enterprise's financial resources use. The main goal of the enterprise's financial policy mechanism is to obtain the expected level of profit at the minimum level of financial resources spending and risk minimisation. Ways to improve the financial managing mechanism of the company's activities have been determined.
STUDY OF THE DYNAMICS OF THE INCIDENCE OF COVID-19 IN UKRAINE DURING MARTIAL LAW

Published: February 2023

COVID-19 has seriously affected various aspects of our lives, and above all the health of people around the world. The high level of transmission and so far, the lack of effective therapeutic agents have challenged all mankind. COVID-19 is an infectious disease that was first detected in December 2019 in Wuhan, China, after which the virus quickly spread around the world. On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared an international public health emergency outbreak, and on March 11, 2020, a global pandemic. Compared to other acute respiratory diseases, such as SARS or MERS, COVID-19 is spreading faster due to increased globalization. According to reports of the first 40 cases of COVID-19, the majority of infected patients (73%) were males, and less than half (i.e., 32%) had comorbidities such as diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular diseases. It is also reported that the average age of patients was 49 years. The mortality rate in this group was almost 2%. In Ukraine, the first cases date back to March 3, 2020. Since the beginning of the epidemic in Ukraine, the average mortality rate was almost 3.5%, and the average age of patients was 41 years. On the night of February 24, 2022, after the Russian leader addressed his citizens, Russia launched a large-scale offensive on the territory of Ukraine. Martial law was declared by presidential decree at 05:30 on the same day throughout the controlled territory of Ukraine. Following the declaration of martial law, most businesses, food and entertainment establishments were forced to suspend operations due to the threat of airstrikes. Educational institutions of various levels were forced to close on vacation, and later open only for distance learning to prevent the accumulation of large masses of people in one place. As for the incidence statistics for COVID-19, at the beginning of the war, they didn't update at all or were limited updated. Therefore, it is now very important to know what the dynamics of the disease should be expected. To study these dynamics, we will use the SIR model, based on the results of which it will be possible to forecast what to expect from COVID-19.
Quantitative composition and mesoscale ion distribution in p-type organic mixed ionic-electronic conductors

Published: February 2023

Understanding the ionic composition and distribution in organic mixed ionic-electronic conductors (OMIECs) is crucial for understanding their structure-property relationships. However, direct measurement of OMIEC ionic composition and distribution is not common. In this work, we investigate the ionic composition and mesoscopic structure of three typical p-type OMIEC materials: an ethylene glycol treated crosslinked OMIEC with large excess fixed anionic charge (EG/GOPS-PEDOT:PSS), an acid treated OMIEC with tunable fixed anionic charge (crys-PEDOT:PSS), and a single component OMIEC absent any fixed anionic charge (pg2T-TT). A combination of X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and photoelectron spectroscopies (XPS), gravimetry, coulometry, and grazing incidence small angle X-ray scattering (GISAXS) techniques were employed to characterize these OMIECs following electrolyte exposure and electrochemical cycling. In particular, XRF provided quantitative ion-to-monomer compositions for these OMIECs from passive ion uptake following aqueous electrolyte exposure, and potential driven ion uptake/expulsion following electrochemical doping and dedoping. Single ion (cation) transport in EG/GOPS-PEDOT:PSS due to Donnan exclusion was directly confirmed, while despite significant fixed anion concentration in crys-PEDOT:PSS doping and dedoping was shown to occur through mixed anion and cation transport. Controlling the fixed anionic (PSS-) charge density in crys-PEDOT:PSS mapped the strength of Donnan exclusion in OMIEC systems following a Donnan-Gibbs model. Anion transport dominated pg2T-TT doping and dedoping, but a surprising degree of anionic charge trapping (~1020 cm-3) was observed. GISAXS revealed minimal ion segregation both between PEDOT- and PSS-rich domains in EG/GOPS-PEDOT:PSS, and between amorphous and semicrystalline domains in pg2T-TT, but showed significant ion segregation in crys-PEDOT:PSS at length scales of tens of nm, ascribed to inter-nanofibril void space. These results bring new clarity to the ionic composition and distribution of OMIECs that are crucial for accurately connecting structure and properties in these materials.
