Authors: Žnidaršič Vinko , Dojić Katarina V. , Milić Lazar N. 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
This research analyzes the problem of choosing a location for conducting infantry river crossing using the aluminum boat M70, applying the multicriteria decision-making method. It has been found that the use of these models significantly accelerates and simplifies the decision-making process, contributing to efficiency and speed in the process itself. At the same time, a comparison was made between the results obtained using multicriteria decision-making methods and the opinions of experts in the field of overcoming water obstacles. The research conclusions emphasize that multicriteria decision-making methods are highly reliable for decision-making, especially in the context of military operations. The focus of the research is on the significance of applying multicriteria methods, which opens up new perspectives for analyzing and improving the application of such models in real conditions. The applied multicriteria decision-making model consists of two phases. The first phase involves defining the weighting coefficients of criteria using the DIBR (Defining Interrelationships Between Ranked criteria) method. In the second phase, the best alternative is chosen using the TOPSIS (Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) method. This research not only supports efficient and comprehensive planning in military operations but also further confirms the relevance and usability of multicriteria decision-making methods in wartime conditions.

Establishing Leadership and Authority Skills for Future Officers
Authors: Leancă Viorica 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
To be, to know, to do - express clearly and concisely the features characteristic of a leader. Military leadership skills are manifested through high principles, professionalism, moral integrity, the ability to lead people, discipline and rule compliance. The quality of applied leadership is influenced by the leader’s ability to acquire the power associated with the formal position and the way he uses it in the process of influencing the behavior of subordinates. Leadership is an issue that is intensively studied, because the style of the leader determines the effectiveness of any organisation. One of the reasons why current scientific concerns are focused on the study of the leadership development methods and on the selection of leaders who have the skills and abilities to successfully perform such functions. In this article we have used reference works of the literature to carry out a study on the manifestation of leadership skills and leadership abilities amongst military students. In military organizations, authority is perceived as a right, a power to command, to issue orders or to command subordinates to obey, but also as a prestige reflected by the respect of those around the military leader, highlighting him as a person who imposes himself through knowledge and behavior. Authority is often accepted in two ways: either through coercion and the exercise of power, or on the basis of belief and influence.
Identifying Accounting Information Needs and Sources Within Organizations
Authors: Ciuhureanu Alina 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
To gain strength in a constantly changing economy, organizations must have a high-performance information system that allows them a detailed knowledge of the situation in which they find themselves. The value of accounting information depends on the relevance it has in the decision-making process. Moreover, it is required that the users show their interest in requesting the necessary information and the information providers have the ability to provide what is requested in accordance with the quality requirements. For these reasons, the research is structured in two parts, namely the identification of information needs and sources from the perspective of accounting practice and the opinions of the respondents who formed the research sample.
Public Financial Control – Financial Policy Instrument of the State
Authors: Popa Ioan-Gabriel 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
The main objective of this paper is to provide an objective approach, starting from the current legislation, on the financial control system and the extent to which it can be an instrument of financial policy. At the same time, this paper captures the structure of the financial control system in Romania with brief considerations of the forms of financial control that make it up, starting from the community acquis in the field of financial control. In the current economic-social context, the existence of financial control standards is required, which are guaranteed by the Romanian state through the creation of a set of laws that govern this field. The pragmatic approach to financial control is vital for establishing its objective, based on specific management methods and techniques, and with the help of which the consolidation of order, discipline, the spirit of responsibility, as well as the efficient management of the economic and financial resources managed by the entities can be achieved public. Financial control must ensure the good functioning of all activities in the economic sphere and is called to act systematically in order to identify or prevent possible deviations and deficiencies, increase the efficiency in the use of resources, preserve the integrity of the heritage and, last but not least, in understanding the way in which legality is respected in the economic and financial field.
Homo Oeconomicus – Expression of the Theory of Rational Economic Choice
Authors: Rusu Marius-Mihai 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
The theory of rational choice involves several aspects, which I chose to present especially in highlighting the impact it has on economic agents. The issue I have chosen to address in this paper concerns how rational decisions that impact on available resources should be made at a given time. Man from the perspective of the economic agent expresses economic rationality in situations of all kinds of constraints, in other words, he realizes the importance of some resources when economic imbalances manifest negatively on the economic agent. The notion of homo oeconomicus has evolved over time depending on the economic realities at the time, whether we refer to the classical or neoclassical period, being essentially the expression of the theory of rational economic choice. Rationality is a permanent trait of human being, but at the same time it can also have better results while implemented in a context.

The process of implementing new information technologies required new specialties for employees of banking institutions. This article examines the essential roles and skill sets of the future in banking. Likewise, modern trends in the digitalization of banking were examined. To perfect this article, the futurological visions of banking experts placed in open access were examined. The purpose of this publication is to present the basic trends of the professional transformation of the banking worker and the banking industry in general in the horizon up to the year 2030.
The Relevance of Handwriting in a Tech-Driven Academia
Authors: Duralia Daniela-Elena 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
Modern technology has gained enormous reach over more traditional analogic practices in all fields due to the desire of individuals to ease their work. However, teachers and researchers have overlooked the consequences of such a transition. For instance, in some academic institutions, laptop usage has decreased the need to submit handwritten assignments. Moreover, most class assignments must now be turned in online and hard copy texts have been replaced with digital copies which are easier to access on library databases. Transitioning to technology as a critical tool and medium for academia has created some issues for instructors who must integrate the use of this technology into their curriculum. There are many more harmful effects that a technology driven academia can cause when individuals cannot distinguish between the use of technology for pleasure and studying. Although modern technology offers various ways to learn and motivate, traditional practices that have proven effective for centuries should not be excluded outright.
Mentor and Mentored Person. Relationships and Perspectives
Authors: Mara Elena-Lucia , Morar Lucia-Larissa 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
The research paper explores the dynamics and perspectives of the mentor and mentored person relationship. A mentor, distinguished by knowledge and experience, collaborates with a novice educator as a colleague rather than an instructor-student dynamic. The mentor offers guidance to the mentored person, typically within the same field, fostering their professional growth through advice and support. Mentorship connections form through networks, personal bonds, or formal programs, with mentors serving as trusted advisors to those less experienced. Despite challenges such as communication gaps and time constraints, strategic solutions can enhance the mentorship experience. Mentors play pivotal roles in fostering growth, sharing knowledge, setting goals, maintaining accountability, providing encouragement, facilitating connections, offering constructive feedback, and sharing relevant experiences. Successful mentor-mentee relationships thrive on constant communication, mutual respect, goal-sharing, and feedback-seeking. Looking ahead, technological advancements and AI-driven matching algorithms promise to make mentoring more accessible and diverse, transcending geographical barriers and optimizing compatibility between mentors and mentees. Embracing the multifaceted nature of mentoring unlocks its full potential for personal and professional development, benefiting both mentors and mentees alike in shaping future leaders and innovators.
Specific Physical Training of Future Officers for Actions in Mountain Environments
Authors: Martinescu-Bădălan Fabiana 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
The mountain environment implies a certain degree of difficulty even in peacetime, in civilian sector activities, even more so from a military point of view, especially in conducting operations in this environment. The varied terrain, sudden weather changes, oxygen depletion with increasing altitude and the lack of suitable travel lanes are just some of the challenges that future officer mountain hunters have to face and overcome. Preparation for this stage must start early with an emphasis on physical and mental endurance, the latter being a basic pillar for any military person, but even more so for a mountain hunter. Sustained physical effort in difficult terrain and exposure to bad weather combined with strong winds requires a trained psyche, ready to carry on even when the physique might give way. Endurance training also plays an important role and contributes to the ability of mountain hunters to traverse large areas of terrain in a relatively short time using weapon-specific methods and techniques. Being a mountain hunter puts a strain on your body and mind. One thing we can improve as mountain hunters is certainly the level of physical training specific to this weapon. Given the specificity of mountain hunter actions in terms of both ski and alpine training, training with a focus on the lower body is a starting point in the physical preparation needed to carry out actions in the mountain environment.

Authors: Alexe Florentina , Ginghină Raluca-Elena , Său Ciprian , Lăzăroaie Claudiu , Moşteanu Dănuț 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
Protection is crucial not only for ensuring the safety of military personnel and other professionals regularly exposed to various threats but also for the broader population. Globally, the development of new protective gear focuses on several key objectives: minimizing stress during the use of personal protective equipment, providing reactive and extended protection (such as through filtered and air-permeable structures that guard against a wide range of CBR/TIC threats), and developing intelligent protective equipment that incorporates detection, self-decontamination, and revitalization functions. Given the diversity of threats that specialized anti-terrorism units face, particularly in chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) domains, it is imperative that they are equipped with effective CBRN protection. Within the framework of strategic, operational, and tactical security measures, CBRN Defense is recognized by NATO as a distinct and critical area. Consistent with the standards of NATO and the specific regulations of the Romanian Army, every member of the NATO/national forces is required to be equipped with an air-permeable CBR protective suit. This study aims to design and test, according to NATO standards, multilayer structures that will protect combat personnel under conditions of reduced stress, addressing these vital needs.

In fact, the last two stages Seiketsu (Standardizing) and Shitsuke (Sustain) presuppose the use of Soft methods in which the emphasis falls on the development of skills and habits, teamwork rules, methods for accepting changes and reducing resistance to change, having impact at the level of the observable behaviors of those involved and the acceptance of the organizational culture.
A New Method for Solving the Integrals of the Mohr-Maxwell Method for Displacements Calculus of Bent Straight Bars
Authors: Năstăsescu Vasile , Bârsan Ghiță 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
The paper presents a new way of solving the integrals that appear in the Mohr-Maxwell energy method for calculating the displacements or rotations of straight bars subjected to bending. The method proposed by the authors, studied and tested for many years in the Military Technical Academy in the Strength of Materials group led by Col. Prof. Vasile Palacianu, eliminates the need to build effort diagrams. To solve the integral on a certain domain, a formula is applied that takes into consideration only the value of the moments at the ends of the integration interval. The well-known restriction for Veresceaghin grapho-analytical integration is maintained: on the integration domain, the variation of the bending moment produced by the generalized load equal to unity must vary linearly. Therefore, the method proposed by the authors cannot be applied to curved bars. Our new method can be used for a beam and also for a beams system. After the presentation of the theoretical foundations of the method and the establishment of the calculation relationship in three variants: without the load distributed over the integration interval, with the load uniformly distributed and with the load distributed according to a linear law, some edifying examples are presented, which highlight the efficiency of the method and the modality for work.

Mechanical and Thermal Analysis of a Rocker Arm Shaft Support Based on Finite Element Method
Authors: Virca Ioan , Giurgiu Tiberiu , Căruţaşu Vasile 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
The Finite Element Method (FEM) is a powerful numerical technique for solving complex physical problems involving differential equations and partial derivatives. This study presents the mechanical and thermal analysis of a rocker arm shaft support using FEM. Employing the ADINA (Automatic Dynamic Incremental Nonlinear Analysis) software, the behavior of the shaft support has been modelled, leveraging ADINA’s extensive material libraries, diverse loading conditions, and customizable behavioral properties. The analysis focuses on determining deformations, stresses, and displacements, particularly in the median plane section at the point of maximum stress. Both treated and untreated material conditions are evaluated to assess stress transmission in the transition zone between surface-hardened and base materials. A 2D analysis is conducted, given the geometry of the rocker arm spindle support, to ensure fidelity to real structural behavior while optimizing computational efficiency. The validated model provides insights into design constraints for new materials, supporting industrial applications.
Performa Peran Jurnalis yang Dinamis dan Berlapis pada Berita COVID-19 Berbasis Data
Authors: Yusuf Ainun Jariah 
Published: July 2024

Jurnalisme data yang diidentikkan dengan peran watchdog tidak lagi dianggap sebagai nilai universal. Muncul peran-peran di luar kondisi ideal tersebut, yang disesuaikan dengan kondisi dan kemampuan media serta jurnalis. Penelitian ini mengeksplorasi peran jurnalisme data yang berkembang di luar peran tradisional sebagai watchdog. Studi ini menilai performa peran jurnalis yang ditunjukkan pada 317 berita COVID-19 berbasis data di Tirto.id, Katadata.co.id, dan Kompas.id. Kerangka analisis yang digunakan diadopsi dari konsep performa peran jurnalistik, yang menilai kehadiran peran intervensionis, peran watchdog, peran fasilitator-loyal, peran berorientasi pemenuhan kebutuan pembaca, peran berorientasi menggungah, dan peran berorientasi mendukung warga negara. Hasil analisis isi kuantitatif menunjukkan adanya kecenderungan hibridisasi performa peran yang ditunjukkan oleh jurnalis dalam berita COVID-19 berbasis data. Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa jurnalisme data yang berkembang di Indonesia, menjalankan berbagai peran tambahan yang tidak terikat pada peran watchdog. Hibridisasi mencerminkan adaptasi terhadap kondisi aktual dan kebutuhan spesifik. Data journalism, identified with the watchdog role, is no longer considered a universal value. There are roles outside this ideal, which are adjusted to the conditions and capabilities of the media and journalists. This research explores the evolving role of data journalism beyond the traditional watchdog role. This study assesses the performance of journalists' roles shown in 317 data-based COVID-19 news on Tirto.id, Katadata.co.id, and Kompas.id. The analytical framework used is adopted from the concept of journalistic role performance, which assesses the presence of an interventionist role, a watchdog role, a facilitator-loyal role, a role oriented towards fulfilling readers' needs, an upload-oriented role, and a role oriented towards supporting citizens. The results of the quantitative content analysis show a tendency to hybridize the role performance shown by journalists in data-based COVID-19 news. This finding shows that data journalism, which is developing in Indonesia, performs various additional roles not limited to the watchdog role. Hybridization reflects adaptation to actual conditions and specific needs.
