Authors: Živaljić Filip , Trstenjak Mirjana 
Published: October 2022

Abstract
A relatively new scientific discipline that finds its primary source in psychology, better known as behavioural economics, is attracting the attention of many authors. It is increasingly applied for the purpose of better understanding consumers, especially in decision making, including personal feelings and limitations in a realistic way. This paper aims to present a model of application of behavioural economics in the sectors of the creative industry. The creative industry has great potential in the role of regional development, accordingly the application of behavioural economy in its sectors can have a positive impact on the further development of the economy of the Republic of Croatia. The paper proposes a model for applying mental accounting to increase the number of visitors in the arts and culture sector to increase the attendance at events of projects funded by EU projects and which must be free.

Abstract
Interprofessionelle Lehre (IPL) bedeutet, dass Studierende verschiedener Professionen mit-, von- und übereinander lernen. 2019 wurde im Kanton Zürich ein interprofessioneller Ausbildungstag (IPE-Tag) mit 68 Studierenden und acht Dozierenden über acht Lektionen durchgeführt mit dem Ziel, interprofessionelle Kompetenzen zu verbessern. Studierende aus sechs Fachbereichen des Gesundheitswesens und PhD-Studierende mit unterschiedlichem fachlichem Hintergrund mussten gemeinsam in Gruppen zwei Fälle mit Simulationspatienten/-innen bearbeiten. Zur Evaluation des IPE Tages wurde eine Prä-Post-Online-Befragung durchgeführt. Sie umfassten unter anderem eine Selbsteinschätzung mittels Items aus dem Kompetenzrahmen der Zürcher InterProfessionellen AusbildungsStation (ZIPAS®) und dem Interprofessional Collaborative Competency Attainment Survey (ICCAS) sowie offene Fragen zum IPE-Tag. Dabei wurden ZIPAS®-Kompetenzrahmen und ICCAS quantitativ, die offenen Fragen qualitativ ausgewertet. Es zeigten sich statistisch signifikante Verbesserungen in den meisten Subskalen des ZIPAS®-Kompetenzrahmens, aber nur in einem Drittel der Subskalen des ICCAS. Außerdem zeigten sich in der qualitativen Analyse der Aussagen insbesondere Verbesserungen in der Kollaboration sowie positive Aussagen zum Austausch mit Studierenden anderer Professionen, wobei viele Studierende dem Thema «Interprofessionalität» eine große Bedeutung zugeschrieben und ihren Blick bereits auf die Zukunft und ihren Alltag gerichtet haben. Der IPE-Tag könnte eine gute Methode sein, um die Zusammenarbeit und Kommunikation mit Studierenden anderer Professionen aus dem Gesundheitsbereich zu verbessern.
Contours of style and stylistics from Jozef Mistrík to the digital era
Authors: Orgoňová Oľga 
Published: October 2022

Abstract
The aim of the study is to follow the metamorphoses of the notion of style (above all) in Slovak stylistics within the last about 30 years. From the initial recapitulation of the traditional ideas of structural linguistics as a science aimed at non-contextual linguistic models of the manners of shaping the texts, the perspective of viewing style is being shifted to viewing it as a socially conditioned speech lingual activity. The culmination is represented by the profiling of style as a construction of a contextually conditioned cultural reflection of text in context. The current communicatively conditioned concepts of style anchored in discourse reality reflect the updated needs of people of the digital era. A non-negligible prerequisite for effectively grasping style (especially in interaction) is the competence of the acting people to interact optimally and in an assimilation-accommodation manner with the surrounding world in the name of harmony, understanding and inclusive behaviour.
Developmental Stylistics
Authors: Římalová Lucie Saicová 
Published: October 2022

Abstract
Developmental stylistics, a sub-discipline of stylistics, studies the development of and changes in stylistic competence during a speaker’s life. This developmental perspective is under-used in stylistic research. The article summarises current definitions of developmental stylistics and proposes a set of new and complex parameters for a discipline that studies stylistic competence at all stages of life, in both production and reception, and in typical and less typical contexts. It discusses the main factors which make ‘developmental’ research within stylistics problematic, and which may contribute to the fragmented nature of the discipline. The wide range of topics within developmental research often calls for an interdisciplinary approach. The great variability in the way speakers communicate and interact with one another, the limited capacity to make generalisations from the research, and the analysis of various types of ‘imperfect’ language all present significant methodological challenges.
Communicative culture on the internet and media linguoecology
Authors: Klushina Natalia 
Published: October 2022

Abstract
The development of digital technologies impacted Internet-communication, which has become the dominant type of communication and a new form of language use. The Internet today is the most influential sphere of social communication, and it has a strong influence on the transformation of traditional norms and rules of speech behavior – both public and interpersonal. The digitalization of language and the digitalization of culture has posed a number of new problems for society: from the destruction of traditional and the emergence of a new literacy in Internet communication to the formation of a new type of culture – media culture, with certain communicative dominants that distinguish it from traditional culture. The media and digital turns in modern linguistics have served as triggers for the awareness of the new linguistic reality being formed in the Internet environment as an increasingly significant part of modern media space. Therefore, it is necessary to create within the framework of the new scientific direction of linguoecology an independent field, which we have conventionally designated as media linguoecology. We think of media linguoecology as a theoretical and applied discipline, in the scientific field of which not only riskogenic zones of Internet communication will be identified, but also ways of overcoming them will be worked out.

Abstract
The paper presents a simulation model developed for a special optical coupler intended for coupling radiation from signal and pump sources used for the realization of cladding-pumped doped fibre amplifiers. The model is developed in COMSOL Multiphysics and used to assess the pumping efficiency for different side pumping angles and different numbers of electromagnetic modes. The obtained results show that the highest pumping efficiency, above 75 %, is achieved for 5–14 modes when two fibres representing the pump source and the signal source form a 10-degree angle between their central axes. The search for the optimal number of modes corresponds to the development trend in optical coupler technology where the multimode pumping by light-emitting diode (LED) replaces the classical scheme with a single-mode pumping by a laser diode (LD).

Published: October 2022

Abstract
Surface potential decay (SPD) of a corona charged polymeric material is a powerful tool to characterise electrical properties such as charge transport, trapping/detrapping and recombination. Over the years, various predictive simulation techniques have been proposed to describe charge transport within the material. Despite recent progress, it appears that there have been a few attempts to theoretically interpret the nature of the charge migration on the insulation surface. The aim of the present paper is to introduce a new technique with differential evolution algorithm (DEA) to reveal the steady state surface potential decay experimental results. Experimental measurement was carried on a thin film of polyethylene terephthalate (thickness: 0.5 mm; surface: 50 mm × 50 mm). The domains of variation of the factors used were respectively: 1000 V to 1800 V; 25 to 55 °C; 50 % to 80 %. The simulation results show that computational modelling and optimization approaches may improve the effectiveness to characterise electrical properties of polymers. More importantly, these studies demonstrate that DEA is effective and performs better than the experimental design method.

Published: October 2022

Abstract
The wind turbine blade design is important in obtaining an effective wind turbine. In the field of wind energy, it is essential to understand the design and parameters affecting the blades of the wind turbine in order to obtain a successful design. However, most of the parameters are dependent on each other and this makes the design of wind turbines a challenging task. This research paper used the QBlade software to analyze and optimize the behavior of the small horizontal axis wind turbine. The software applies the Blade Element Momentum Theory (BEM) to study the wind turbine blades by calculating the drag and lift coefficients which were achieved by dividing the blades into 10 ascending segments. The twist angle and chord length of the blade are optimized to get the highest performance. Among the various airfoil types, the SG-6041 airfoil type was selected to build the blade structure. The calculated power coefficient was almost 0.4, which is considered high given that it was calculated under 10 m/s average wind speed and 1-meter length blade conditions. Where all the results are logical and reasonable, the software is proven to be reliable. The paper also evaluates the wind characteristics in different locations in Iraq in order to find the most optimal promising locations in Iraq.
Adverse Influence of Legal Surroundings of the Historical Relics of the Underground Works in the Area of Lower Silesia on Removal of the Environmental Risks Related to Them
Authors: Madziarz Maciej , Kotarska Izabela 
Published: October 2022

Abstract
This paper presents the complexity of issues related to removal of risks related to historical mining workings and underground structures that are located numerously in the area of the Sudetes and their Foothills (Lower Silesia). These grounds, rich in raw materials, feature complex political and economic history, the material remnants of which are i.a. different kinds of underground structures of the anthropogenic origin, predominantly scantily surveyed and constituting risks resulting both from sheer existence of incorrectly or almost completely not liquidated underground hollows and especially from various sorts of wastes that have been accumulated there—including hazardous ones. Due to incorporation after World War 2 of a part of Lower Silesia into Poland (so called “Recovered Territories”), these historical workings and underground structures were created in the area of another state (Germany), which is the cause of a number of uncertainties concerning both the legal status of these objects and determining the form its responsibility for eradication of the risks related to them will take. An excellent example of this kind of situation constitutes the issue of the cluster of the underground workings located in the area of the town of Bolków where, in the years 1943–1944, an attempt was undertaken to locate an underground factory of airplane subassemblies there. Over half a century since the end of World War 2, an accumulation of potentially hazardous substances was discovered there—probably petroleum-derived, which have never been identified correctly and their present storage place remains unknown—due to an illegal penetration of the underground places by unauthorized persons and theft of the artefacts located there (including containers with an unknown content).
Hybrid Threats and Counter-Hybrid Solutions: A Comparative Case Study Analysis of Croatia, North Macedonia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina
Authors: Mikac Robert , Mitrevska Marina , Smajić Mirza 
Published: October 2022

Abstract
Hybrid threats are not new security challenges, but they are becoming more and more pronounced, primarily due to the situation in Ukraine, where multiple hybrid activities are underway by Russia. As central actors in the European security architecture, the European Union and NATO recognise that both organisations, their member states and other countries in Europe are exposed to various forms of hybrid threats. However, this ability to recognise hybrid threats and especially the development of counter-hybrid solutions is an open question for some smaller countries. In order to investigate the above, this paper focuses on hybrid threats and counter-hybrid solutions by analysing the state of affairs in Croatia, North Macedonia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina. Our goal is to explore this area and answer the following research questions: What hybrid threats are Croatia, North Macedonia, Bosnia and Herzegovina exposed to? How do they deal with them? What counter-hybrid solutions are being developed?
The Role, Expectations and Challenges of High Representative in Bosnia and Herzegovina
Authors: Beglerović Nađa 
Published: October 2022

Abstract
Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) longs for stability and development as it continues to be held back by the dysfunctional political system, weak institutions, rampant corruption and ethnonationalist rhetoric. It is caught in a vicious cycle of crises generated by some of its political elite that has hampered BiH’s social, political and economic progress. The international community, including the Office of High Representative (OHR), has taken on the responsibility of safeguarding the rights of three Constituent people and Others, ensuring peace prevails in BiH (OHR 2022). In particular, the OHR was established to drive reforms and institution-building in BiH but has often been hobbled by inadequate and reluctant political support. Considering the uniqueness of the High Representative’s position in BiH, further research is needed on its role, evolution, impact and acceptance. The research applies the role theory to examine the HR role (i.e., conception, performance and recognition). The OHR continues to play an essential role in BiH and cannot be closed until BiH makes significant progress toward state-building, which includes establishing strong institutions and addressing the democratic deficit, promoting a common national identity and the interethnic trust.
Present and Future Availability of Livestock Manure for Biogas Production in Latvia
Authors: Lagzdins Ainis 
Published: October 2022

Abstract
In order to address existing and foreseen climate change and environmental challenges, the European Commission has adopted a set of proposals as part of the European Green Deal to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases and become the first climate-neutral continent in the world. In the energy sector it is planned to implement specific actions to increase the contribution from renewable sources of energy. Livestock manure as a renewable resource can be processed to produce biogas through anaerobic digestion processes. This study aimed to estimate the amount of livestock manure potentially available for biogas production in Latvia based on statistical information on the number of animals representing current and past trends, and forecasts for the future provided by the results of the Latvian Agricultural Sector Analysis Model (LASAM).
The results of this study showed that the share of livestock manure processed to produce biogas has increased considerably during the time period from 2010 to 2019 in all groups of livestock considered for this application in Latvia. However, there are still opportunities to increase the share of manure utilised for anaerobic digestion, especially in the livestock groups of dairy cows and non-dairy cows, as only 16% and 13% of the available amount of manure was processed in 2019, respectively. The LASAM results indicate that the number of animals will experience negligible changes or will decrease; therefore, more attention will need to be paid to increase the efficiency of processing the existing amount of manure rather than relying on an additional amount of manure available for biogas production.

Published: October 2022

Abstract
Muffin is a flour confectionery product with an elastic texture. Nowadays, vegetable products are replacing traditional dairy products more often in the food sector. Tofu, which is a quintessential soy protein product, is one of the alternatives for making vegan products. The aim of this research was to determine the influence of defrosting processes to changes of sensory and textural properties of a muffins with cottage cheese and its vegan substitutes. Five types of muffins were used in the study – muffin without cottage cheese (control), muffin with cottage cheese, muffin with lactose-free cottage cheese, tofu muffin and tofu chickpea muffin, which were thawed after freezing in two ways (at room temperature and in a microwave oven). For the determination of muffin quality, the Quantitative descriptive method (QDA) was used, and for overall liking, the 7-point hedonic scale and acceptance – Just-about-Right (JAR) method were used. To evaluate physical-chemical and textural analysis, standard methods were used. The method of defrosting muffins – room (ambient) temperature or microwave – has no significant effect (p>0.05) on the quality and JAR rating of the muffins with cottage cheese and tofu. The obtained results showed that the addition of plant-based protein sources significantly reduces the volume of muffins; the texture of the muffins becomes softer, but more sticky. In the process of defrosting using a microwave, the structure of the muffins is drier, softer, whitish, and less sticky, compared to a muffin thawed at 22 °C.
In Vitro Testing of Lactic Acid Bacteria from Commercial Yoghurts

Abstract
Yoghurt has been known as an excellent source for delivering viable lactic acid bacteria (LAB) in concentrations providing benefits to the human host and microbiome. Different gastrointestinal tract (GIT) simulators have been developed and are successfully used to determine the viability of LAB from fermented dairy products in vitro studies. Commercial yoghurts were tested for digestibility using the GIT IT system Labfors 5 (INFORS HT, Switzerland). The length for both the gastric phase and the small intestinal phase was 120 min each. Yoghurt LAB colony-forming units were analysed prior to the GIT simulation test, as well as after the simulation test. The survival rate of LAB was evaluated based on the differences in the viable LAB count at the beginning and at the end of the experiment.
Tested yoghurts’ LAB were tolerated in the simulated gastric and small intestinal phases. Samples collected prior to and after the intestinal phase revealed that LAB had adapted and started to grow within 120 min. Our results showed the ability of LAB to recover in the intestinal phase which has been explained by the food matrix, which protects the bacteria from the elimination effect of intestinal secretions.
In addition, differences in survival rates of LAB significantly influenced the overall LAB colony-forming units in the gastrointestial tract. The chemical composition of the product has an influence on the survival rate of LAB, and it should be studied more thoroughly. In vitro studies are quite different from the assay in vivo studies; however, this information provides significant data about the viability of LAB from regularly consumed products and helps to modulate the influence of LAB on human microbiota.
