ENTREPRENEURIAL ACTIVITY IN THE ERA OF PETER I THE GREAT’S REFORMS AS AN INDICATOR OF VERTICAL MODERNIZATION: SOCIO-CULTURAL DIMENSION
Authors:   ITMO University, Antipov Anton A. , Nikolaev Andrey S. ,   ITMO University
Published: March 2023

The authors of the article consider the socio-cultural indicators of entrepreneurial activity as a key vector of vertical modernization undertaken by the Russian Emperor Peter I. The study of socio-historical and cultural-philosophical reflection caused by the reforms of the first quarter of the 18th century is the longest interdisciplinary discourse leading directly to the realities of the development of modern Russia. Consistent consideration of the levels of institutionalization, typification, legitimization, habitualization and the socio-cultural potential of modernization showed that the reforms of Peter I were initially devoid of key socio-cultural determinants. At that time, an attempt at a short-term and radical westernization of society without taking into account the need for a democratic filling of modernization led to a centuries-old split in society and, as a result, to a development vector that was fundamentally different from the European one.

Authors:   National Research Mordovian State University named after N. P. Ogarev, Khramova Elena A.
Published: March 2023

Despite the availability of research on the management of agricultural structures, a number of issues related to the peculiarities of their functioning require study. In the conditions of crisis, financial instability and tougher competition, modern methods of diagnosing the effectiveness of the development of agricultural structures are needed. Agribusiness combines a range of activities: production, innovation, economic. Each type of activity is influenced by external and internal factors. The impact of some factors can be predicted, while others are difficult. Most of these factors can cause risks of achieving a synergistic effect. Agribusiness is characterized by specific risks that arise due to the nature of the activity. Therefore, there is a need for timely identification and control of risks of not achieving a synergistic effect. This article highlights the approaches to diagnosing the synergetic effect in agricultural structures, taking into account the processes of activity.

Authors:   Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation, Moscow, Russia, Tsygalov Yu. M. , Korigova M. M. ,   Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation, Moscow, Russia
Published: March 2023

Motivation and remuneration of the top management of corporations is always in the area of special attention in both foreign and domestic research. The public believes that the high incomes of top managers are not justified and are not supported by real achievements. If the mechanisms for determining wages in Russian corporations with state participation are partially regulated, then in public joint-stock companies the issues of remuneration of top management, according to the owners, are an internal matter of the company and are not subject to regulation. The lack of regulation opens up wide opportunities for the use of various mechanisms of motivation and remuneration, which reflect the specifics of the corporation and social policy in relation to top management employees. The purpose of the study is to identify the best practices and reserves of Russian companies in matters of remuneration for the top management of a corporation. The object of the study is the remuneration of the top management of corporations. The subject of the research is the mechanisms of remuneration of top managers of companies. Research methods are applied: analysis, synthesis, generalization, modeling and classification. Main results: in order to increase the effectiveness of motivation systems, it is necessary to strengthen the long-term and strategic orientation of motivation and remuneration, reduce the share of remuneration “from what has been achieved”, and develop option programs based on preferential distribution of company shares. It is advisable in motivation systems to provide for penalties for large losses of the company that have arisen through the fault of the company’s executive management.

У роботі обґрунтовано основні напрями підвищення екологічної безпеки життєдіяльності робітників у виробничих умовах на технологічних операціях алмазного шліфування шляхом застосування екологічно чистої технології електроерозійної правки алмазних кругів на високоміцних металевих зв'язках. Показано, що ця технологія на відміну від традиційно технології абразивної правки виключає утворення абразивного пилу на робочому місці, а на відміну від електрохімічної правки виключає застосування сильних електролитів. Замість них застосовується звичайна технічна вода. Однак, в процесі електроерозійної правки в зоні обробки виникає іскріння, яке небажано для робітника при значному часі правки. Тому в роботі запропоновано нове технічне рішення, яке полягає у використанні ручного ізольованого електроду, що забезпечує короткочасну електроерозійну правку. Це фактично виключає негативний вплив іскріння на органи зору робітника. На цій основі розроблено практичні рекомендації щодо створення екологічно чистих технологій шліфування алмазно-абразивними інструментами  на металевих зв'язках виробів, виготовлених із важкооброблюваних матеріалів (твердих сплавів, природних алмазів, керамік, феритів та ін). Це, по-перше, дозволяє виготовляти конкурентоздатну промислову продукцію, а, по-друге, покращує екологічну захищеність робочого місця і виробництва в цілому, підвищує безпеку і працездатність робітника.

Професійний контроль рівня освітленості за допомогою приладів для визначення інтенсивності освітлення є одним з основних параметрів при створенні мікроклімату у приміщеннях. Перш за все необхідно подбати про достатність сонячного освітлення, а за необхідності, використовувати додаткові джерела освітлення.
До освітлення на виробництві висуваються вимоги, що створюють сприятливі умови для здорової роботи, які б запобігали швидкій втомлюваності очей, виникненню професійних захворювань, нещасних випадків і сприяли підвищенню продуктивності праці та якості продукції. Основними вимогами щодо освітлення є: створення на робочій поверхні освітленості, яка відповідала б характеру зорової роботи і не є нижчою за встановлені норми; забезпечення достатньої рівномірності та постійності рівня освітленості у виробничих приміщеннях, щоб уникнути частої переадаптації органів зору; запобігання засліплювальної дії як від самих джерел освітлення, так і від інших предметів, що знаходяться в полі зору; запобігання на робочій поверхні різких та глибоких тіней, особливо рухомих; достатній для розрізнення деталей контраст поверхонь, що освітлюються.

Published: March 2023

Від якості інституціонального середовища цивільної безпеки (насамперед, вагомої її складової – охорони праці) істотно залежить безпека виробничих процесів. Мало того, оскільки безпека праці є вагомим соціальним складником національної безпеки держави, то досконалість нормативно-правового забезпечення охорони праці також є дуже важливим фактором і в цьому сенсі. У статті наведені узагальнені результати досліджень законодавчого та нормативного забезпечення охорони праці як складника інституціонального середовища цивільної безпеки, показано його недосконалість. Виконано критичний аналіз окремих позицій Концепції реформування системи управління охороною праці в Україні. Оцінено відповідність Рекомендацій щодо побудови, впровадження та вдосконалення системи управління охороною праці законодавству Європейського Союзу. Надано рекомендації щодо імплементації норм європейського законодавства у сфері охорони здоров’я та безпеки праці. Доведено доцільність збереження багатьох норм вітчизняного законодавства зі сфери цивільної безпеки як таких, що забезпечують належний рівень безпеки виробництва. Доведено, що без достатньої кількості фахівців із цивільної безпеки ефективна імплементація норм європейського законодавства неможлива.

Аналіз сучасної зарубіжної та вітчизняної технічної літератури дозволяє з достатньою точністю спрогнозувати подальший розвиток комп’ютерно-інтегрованого складального приладобудівного виробництва. Головні тенденції розвитку приладобудівного виробництва, особливо СІМ випливають із глобалізації ринків збуту, змін в суспільній свідомості, постійно зростаючих вимог споживачів, скорочення циклів життя приладів, досягнень науки і техніки.
Умовно можна виділити основні напрямки розвитку сучасного приладобудування, особливо в СІМ: науково-теоретичний, конструкційний, технологічний, програмний, організаційний, експлуатаційний та інші з використанням концепції багатомірного комп’ютерного інтегрування на базі об’єднаних мережних і інтелектуальних технологій та організацій.
Важливим напрямком повинно бути інноваційне доопрацювання конструкцій як приладів, так і технологічного обладнання, оснащення та організації приладобудівного виробництва на базі механізму підвищення його ефективності. Спочатку встановлюється потрібна та обґрунтована якість і конкурентоспроможність приладу, а далі розглядається їх забезпечення за рахунок технологічності, ефективності технології, обладнання та оснащення, його витратності виготовлення, організації виробництва, кваліфікації інженерів і робітників.

У статті визначено перспективні напрямки в метрологічному забезпечені проведення вимірювань у нанометровому діапазоні. Визначено, що для  вимірювання механічних властивостей наноструктурованих матеріалів з прив'язкою до рельєфу поверхні найбільш поширеними у застосуванні є вимірювальні комплекси, що поєднують у собі можливості скануючих зондових мікроскопів та нанотвердомірів. Тому актуальною постає задача підвищення точності та швидкодії розпізнавальної системи зондового вимірювального комплексу за рахунок оптимального вибору кількості і розміщення вимірювальних точок на поверхні нанооб’єкта та точок відліку для математичного опису топологічних та фізичних характеристик поверхні. Доведено, що однією з основних проблем, які виникають у процесі вимірювання нанооб’єктів за допомогою зондового вимірювального комплексу є негативний вплив зовнішніх дестабілізуючий факторів, які можуть бути причиною спотворення вимірювальної інформації та отримання недостовірного зображення рельєфу нанооб’єкта. Оскільки всі дестабілізуючі фактори та викликані ними похибки завчасно невідомі і випадковим чином змінюються у часі, можна стверджувати, що ми маємо справу з цілим рядом випадкових функцій часу. На основі проведеного дослідження, розроблено метод оптимального вибору кількості вимірювальних точок для математичного опису випадкового процесу та доведено, що запропонований метод сприяє значному підвищенню точності та швидкодії розпізнавальної системи зондових вимірювальних комплексів при проведені метрологічних робіт в нанометровому діапазоні.

Structural Analysis among Healing Experience, Subjective Well-Being, and Quality of Life through Travel
Authors:   Taegu Science University Defense Security Institute, Hong Min Jung
Published: March 2023

This study attempted to investigate the influence of psychological healing experiences through travel on individuals' subjective well-being and quality of life. To achieve the purpose of this study, a field survey was conducted on Koreans with travel experiences within the past year, and a structural equation modeling analysis was conducted. As a result, hypothesis 1(emotional healing experience→subjective well-being) and hypothesis 4(cognitive healing experience→quality of life) were statistically significant. Specifically, the emotional healing experience through travel has a positive effect on subjective well-being, and the cognitive healing experience has a positive effect on quality of life. It was found that the two psychological healing experiences have a positive effect on those two variables, subjective well-being and quality of life respectively. As a result, it was confirmed that both emotional and cognitive healing experiences are important in improving an individual's well-being through healing-related travel experiences. In addition, since the influence relationship between subjective well-being and quality of life is not significant, it can be seen that it is necessary to discover evaluation factors that can contribute to improving an individual's quality of life through travel healing experiences. Academic and practical implications for this were discussed in more detail in the conclusion.

Authors:   Taegu Science University Defense Security Institute, Kim Yong Joo
Published: March 2023

This is supposedly the first contingent valuation(CV) study which has estimated the value of a statistical life(VSL) lost due to COVID-19. The VSL was estimated to be 44.26 billion Won for Koreans. This VSL estimate was used to derive 144.40 trillion Won for the social cost of 32,625 premature deaths due to COVID-19 reported by January 9, 2023. This huge amount of cost is equivalent to 11.9% of the central government’s total budget for the same period. As for the local gvernments, the estimated social cost of Gyeonggi-do is the highest in the country: the estimate is 3.57 billion Won, which accounts for as much as 38.2% of the total budget of the Province. Busan-si and Gangwon-do show the highest social costs per 100,000 residents, and Sejong-si shows the lowest one. Also provided are examples of economic assessment by utilising the VSL estimate the study derived.
The Number of Quasi-Trees in Fans and Wheels
Authors: Merino Criel
Published: March 2023

We extend the classical relation between the $2n$-th Fibonacci number and the number of spanning trees of the $n$-fan graph to ribbon graphs.  More importantly, we establish a relation between the $n$-associated Mersenne number and the number of quasi trees of the $n$-wheel ribbon graph. The calculations are performed by computing the determinant of a matrix associated with ribbon graphs. These theorems are also proven using contraction and deletion in ribbon graphs. The results provide  neat and symmetric combinatorial interpretations of these well-known sequences. Furthermore, they are refined by giving two families of abelian groups whose orders are the  Fibonacci and associated Mersenne numbers.
Cultivating Peace as a Socialization Outcome in Universities: The Role of Institutional-based Religious Students’ Associations
Authors: Murugi Priscilla Ng’ae
Published: March 2023

The search for peace and harmony entails many life aspects across the globe and various institutions. While the common conflicts in Kenya are skewed on tribal, political, and family orientations, the effects spread into institutions of higher learning. It is on this background that the need for cultivating peace in universities through nurtured socialisation outcomes is attributed to students’ association. The article emanates from a study conducted in 2020-2021 with the purpose of examining the influence of students’ associations on educational socialisation outcomes among students in selected universities in Nairobi County, Kenya. Guided by Structural Functionalist Theory, the study used a mixed-methods design. The target population of students in ten chartered universities in Nairobi County. The researcher used a sample of 3 universities and achieved involved 167 students. Using stratified and simple random sampling techniques combined with purposive sampling, the study selected universities, deans of students, and individual association members. Data was gathered using an observation checklist, and questionnaire for students, and an interview schedule for deans of students. The researcher piloted the research instruments in one of the private universities that were not among the main study sites. The reliability and validity of the instruments were checked using the split-half technique and critically assessing the consistency of the responses on the pilot questionnaires. The data collected was then analysed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 24. The major finding was that participation in students’ religious association activities influenced educational socialisation outcomes. The outcomes can be harnessed into creating peaceful and harmonious co-existence in institutions of higher learning through which cultural, religious, and political diversities can be shared for the socio-wellbeing of the university community. The study recommends the embracing of students’ religious-based associations by university administrators to foster peace education.

To maintain the balance of productivity and increase coffee yield in the coffee agroforestry system, understanding the selection and management practices of shade trees is crucial. The purpose of this study was to examine shade tree selection factors and farmers management methods in a smallholder coffee-based agroforestry system in Gomma woreda, south-west Ethiopia, along an elevation gradient. Upper, middle, and lower gradients of the elevation were stratified, and two villages were randomly chosen from each elevation group. A total of 115 households were selected for interviews to examine coffee shade tree management practices and selection criteria. Moderated interviews that included both closed- and open-ended questions were administered. The information was gathered on the farmer's understanding and practice with regard to coffee shade tree selection and management. Result found that there is no correction  between respondents  age, sex and coffee shade management practices in study site. Farmers preferred both indigenous and exotic shade tree species such as 20% Cordia africana, 20% Albizia gummifera, 19%Croton macrostachyus, 5.2% Persea americana, 13% Grevillea robusta, and 3.5% Mangifera indica for coffee shade. Shade tree selection was based on tree height, origin, leaf size, shade quality, and leaf decomposition rate attributes.. Farmers also valued coffee shade trees for other additional ecosystem goods and services such as fruit, timber, construction wood, soil fertility maintenance, fodder, soil, and water conservation. Coffee shade tree provided both economic re-turn and biological conservation in study site.

Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) is a promising candidate for future optical communications and has received wide concern. The article proposed a Coherent Optical (CO) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) scheme, which gives a scalable and flexible solution for increasing the transmission rate, being extremely robust to chromatic dispersion as well as polarization mode dispersion. Nevertheless, both coherent detection and OFDM are prone to phase noise due to the phase mismatch between the laser oscillators at the transmitter and receiver sides and the relatively long OFDM symbol duration compared to that of single carrier communications. An Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) with Pilot Assisted Equalization (PEM) is proposed for compensation of impairments caused by fibre nonlinearity in coherent optical communication systems. Channel estimation using ELM and the value of distortion is sent to the OSTBC receiving end based on the distortion information the data is decoded and pilot data is removed. FFT is applied to the data and QPSK demodulation is done in the data to get its original form. In addition, the article utilized a free-space optical communication system of multi-input multi-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) with a modified receiver structure. Simulation reveals that the proposed model exhibits significant BER (0.0112) performance and provides better spectral efficiency as compared with conventional systems and less computational complexity. This suggested that the proposed method shows better performance by using the CO-OFDM-FSO-MIMO-ELM-based channel estimation technique for high-speed data communication networks in real-time scenarios respectively.
The New Way to Solve Physical Problems Described by ODE of the Second Order with the Special Structure

Published: March 2023

In the last decade, many researchers have studied extensively theoretical and practical problems of natural sciences using ODEs as a means to analyze and understand them. Specifically, second-order ODEs with special complex structures provide the necessary tools to construct mathematical models for several physical - and other- processes such as the Schturm-Liouville, Schrölinger, Population, etc. As a result, it is of great importance to construct special stable methods of a higher order as a means to solve differential equations. One of the most important efficiency methods for solving these problems is the Stёrmer-Verlet method which consists of hybrid methods with constant coefficients. In this paper, we expand on recent studies that prove that the hybrid methods are more precise than the Stёrmer-Verlet method while investigating the convergence variable. This paper aims to prove the existence of a new, stable hybrid method using a special structure of degree(p)=3k+2, where k is the order of the multistep methods. Lastly, we also provide a detailed mathematical explanation of how to construct stable methods on the intersection of multistep and hybrid methods having a degree(p)≤3k+3.

Published: March 2023

The first continuous flow method was developed for the synthesis of 6-monoamino-6-monodeoxy-β-cyclodextrin starting from native β-cyclodextrin through three reaction steps, such as monotosylation, azidation and reduction. All reaction steps were studied separately and optimized under continuous flow conditions. After the optimization, the reaction steps were coupled in a semi-continuous flow system, since a solvent exchange had to be performed after the tosylation. However, the azidation and the reduction steps were compatible to be coupled in one flow system obtaining 6-monoamino-6-monodeoxy-β-cyclodextrin in a high yield. Our flow method developed is safer and faster than the batch approaches.
Reduplication, repetition and sound symbolism in Fungwa
Authors: Akinbo Samuel Kayode
Published: March 2023

A pattern of reduplication marks the intensity of evaluatives in Fungwa. CV syllables of nominal roots and CV prefixes can be reduplicated, but V syllables cannot. The intensity marker, which also has a CV shape due to an onset condition, can be multiply repeated. The reduplicative intensifier and its repetition(s) are akin to arbitrary affixes in the language in terms of their phonological characteristics, and they are also consistent with non-arbitrary sound-meaning mapping across languages. Formally, the repetition and shape of the reduplicant are considered to be effects of morphosyntax and markedness constraints. Considering that the evaluative marker and the intensifier are consistent with patterns of sound symbolism, Fungwa presents categorical evidence for the perspective that sound-meaning mapping involves both arbitrariness and non-arbitratriness.

Migratory Songbirds Transport Amblyomma longirostre and Amblyomma maculatum Ticks to Canada
Authors: D Scott ohn , TA McKeown Jaclyn , M Scott Catherine
Published: March 2023

Birds transport ticks into Canada during northward spring migration, and some of these ticks are infected with tick-borne zoonotic pathogens. Some Amblyomma species harbour pathogens that cause debilitating diseases that can be fatal to humans, and domestic and wildlife animals. At least 65 Amblyomma spp. are indigenous in the Western Hemisphere, and approximately half bite humans. Amblyomma longirostre carries Rickettsia amblyommatis which causes spotted fever group rickettsiosis, a febrile disease in humans. Additionally, Amblyomma maculatum harbors and transmits Rickettsia parkeri, a spotted fever group rickettsiosis, and this tick bites humans. In the present study, we use two technologies to identify ticks. To confirm identification, we took microphotographs followed by DNA barcoding of the cytochrome c oxidase I gene. Based on molecular analysis, we confirmed that the two Amblyomma spp. were Amblyomma longirostre, a neotropical tick and Amblyomma maculatum, the Gulf Coast tick. Based on our tick-bird findings, we confirm that migratory songbirds transport Amblyomma ticks into Canada, and have the potential, either directly or indirectly, to transmit tick-borne zoonotic pathogens to humans.
An Observational Report about the Detoxifying Effects of Calcium Hypochlorite (MMS2) on Graphene Oxides (GOs) in Human Plasma
Authors: Jeon Ki-Yeob
Published: March 2023

Graphene Oxide (GO) is known to have two faces: it has many benefits; and it is hazardous to our health. This study understood the jeopardizing effects of GOs in our body, and wanted to find out a way to remove GOs in our body. Three sets of observational studies were done to evaluate the detoxifying effects of MMS2 (Calcium Hypochlorite), Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), ivermectin, and GNP (Gold Nanoparticle) + Camostat Mesylate (Foipan) on Graphene Oxide (GO) in the human plasma. MMS2 solution showed almost clear removal of GOs in the human plasma while GNP + Foipan made questionable removal effects of GOs in the human blood. This article presents MMS2 solution as an inexpensive agent to remove magnetic graphene nanoparticles in the human blood. Currently, MMS2 is included in detoxifying treatments for the sequelae of COVID-19 experimental injections and for people who have many GOs in their blood and experience shedding symptoms.

Some members of Korea Veritas Doctors of COVID-19 analyzed COVID-19 vaccines samples, blood samples, urine samples, foot bath samples, sitz bath samples, and skin extract samples from COVID-19 vaccinated and unvaccinated subjects. Among the objects analyzed were self-assembling micro-sized particles, probable Graphene Oxide (GO), and strands of micro-sized materials of diverse structures (probably small GO particles). Intermittently self-vibrating objects (probable GO particles) in the blood of the injected were presented. Slowly moving synthetic parasite-like objects in the blood of the injected and another object of a water ski-like fast moving object in the foot bath water were also presented. COVID-19 vaccines were known to contain programmable mRNA, GO and synthetic parasite-like objects. The effect of these materials in the blood is a widespread damage to everything inside the body including multiple organs. Those damaging effects are linked to endotheliitis, mitochondrial damage, microthrombosis, myocarditis, Sudden Adult Death Syndrome (SADS), human DNA changes and Genetically Modified Organism (GMO), prion disease and dementia, infertility and depopulation, Vaccine Aided Immune Deficiency Syndrome (VAIDS), reprogramming of innate immunity, cancer, RNA Replicons (i.e., replicating spike proteins forever as far as the host lives), and shedding by vaccinated people. Moreover, these materials may cause Vaccine-Induced Thrombotic Thrombocytopenia (VITT), and cytokine storms which is claimed to be typical COVID-19 symptoms. It can be easily argued that there is no other reason for the presence of these main components of COVID-19 vaccines including programmable mRNA, GO, and synthetic parasite-like objects, but to produce slow and painful death in people and to depopulate the world. Considering the hazardous effects of those GOs and other synthetic materials in the human body, human beings need to be detoxified from those hazardous materials and those extracted structures came out of human body need to be carefully treated and detoxified.

Objective: To evaluate performance of routine chemistry analytes in a tertiary care hospital laboratory by the application of sigma metrics. Introduction: Six sigma (6σ) is a popular Quality Management System (QMS) tool. Laboratories are increasingly using the six sigma method for the objective assessment and comparison of the analytical methods and instrument performance. Six sigma is about measuring or counting the number of defects. It quantifies the performance of a process as a rate of Defects-Per-Million-Opportunities (DPMO or DPM). The aim is to assess the performance and to eliminate or reduce the variation in a process. Materials and Methods: This prospective study was conducted over a period of six months duration. Sigma metrics were calculated using coefficient of variation (%CV), %Bias and total allowable error (%TEa). For %CV we used Internal Quality Control (IQC) samples, at two levels L1 and L2. Daily IQC results of L1 and L2 for 25 routine chemistry analytes were recorded in an excel sheet and %CV was calculated for each analyte for the period of study. For each analyte %Bias was calculated based on values obtained from monthly RIQAS-EQA program data. The total allowable error (%TEa) values for each analyte were extracted from various sources like Clinical Laboratories Improvement Amendment act (CLIA), Canadian Fixed Limits from the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Saskatchewan (CFX) and Spanish Society of Clinical Chemistry and Molecular Pathology (SEQC) table of Desirable Quality Specifications based on Biological Variation (BV) criteria for acceptable performance. Sigma values were calculated. The minimal acceptable performance criteria was considered as 3 sigma. Normalized MEDx charts were used to plot sigma metrics to visually present the performance. Quality Goal Index (QGI) analysis was carried out as a part of Root Cause Analysis (RCA). Results: Highest sigma value of 16.7 was noted for HDL-C and the lowest of 2.08 for chloride at level L1. Many analytes like ALP, Amylase, AST, CK, GGT, HDL-C, Magnesium and Uric Acid attained world class quality performance at both levels L1 and L2 with sigma levels of >6. Many other analytes showed satisfactory performance with sigma levels of >3. Sodium, potassium, chloride and urea did not show a satisfactory performance. Conclusion: Sigma metrics evaluation of analytical performance of our laboratory showed an acceptable performance for a wide range of analytes in patient samples.
