Authors: Kilyusheva N. , Ayzenshtadt Arkadiy , Danilov V. , Belyaev A. , Danilov V. 
Published: June 2022

A comparative analysis of the mineralization of wood with a solution of an organic mineral complex in various modes is carried out: spontaneous (by immersion in a container with a solution) and forced (during autoclave treatment under excessive pressure using an inert gas) modes. This analysis will reveal the optimal parameters of wood mineralization, which, in turn, will help to solve the problem of increasing the durability and reliability of wood materials intended for use in extreme climatic conditions. The composition of the modifying solution is natural polysaccharide arabinogalactan and polymineral quartz-containing sand (10 % arabinogalactan and 10 % polymineral sand). It is found that during 24 hours of processing, the density of pine wood increases by 18 % (with spontaneous flow of the process, this parameter increases by only
10 %). An increase in the density of samples leads to an increase in their compressive strength by 80 % (during spontaneous processing) and by 91 % (during autoclaving). The Brinell hardness of the prototypes increases more than three times (regardless of the conditions of the process). A detailed description of the individual stages of the process of thermal decomposition of the wood of the prototypes is obtained. It is found that for modified samples (compared with control ones), the degree of thermal destruction is significantly reduced.

The article presents the results of studying the effect of modifying additives CaAl2O4 (CA) and CaAl4O7 (CA2), as well as boric acid on the processes of phase formation of clinker minerals. The calculation of the content of raw materials in the charge is carried out taking into account the production of high-alumina clinker with the participation of Al2O3 71–72 wt.% and CaO 27–28 wt.%. In accordance with the state diagram of the CaO–Al2O3 system, the mass amount accumulates in two calcium aluminate phases: CA 64 wt.% and CA2 36 wt.%. Chalk grade M-90 and commercial alumina grade G-0 are used as feedstock. Heat treatment of powder mixtures with different concentrations of modifying additives is carried out in the temperature range of 1250 - 1350°C with isothermal holding for 1 and 2 hours. It has been established that when 0,5 % H3BO3 is introduced into the charge, the design ratio of the CA and CA2 phases appears after heat treatment at
1350 °C for 2 hours. An increase in the content of boric acid to 1,0 % allows to obtain a phase clinker composition close to the design one at 1250 °C and a holding time of 1 hour. It has been shown that the introduction of HAC additives into the mixture affects the quantitative phase composition of products. A correlation is established between the amount of HAC introduced and the decrease in the content of unreacted α-alumina in samples heat-treated at 1350 °C for 1 hour.

Published: June 2022

The article presents the results of scientific analysis of the concept of health-preserving competence (HPC), which is identified as an indivisible component of system of education of Ukraine, as well as the prerequisite for introduction of New Ukrainian School (NUS). Peculiarities of HPC functioning in terms of distance learning application are singled out and described. Author’s questionary was designed in order to accomplish the objectives of research; thus, a survey aimed at gathering and processing statistical data on formation of health-preserving competence of education seekers during Ukrainian language classes in the conditions of distance learning in institutions of higher medical education. The survey results indicated that level of formation of above-mentioned competence varies from high to low depending on the type and features of technical means of distance learning as well as they level of integration into the educational process. Moreover, level of HPC directly impacts the health of applicant for higher education by causing negative tendencies, such as inability to concentrate on the tasks given and/or new material that is being presented via means of distance learning, low level of interest and involvement into educational activities, accidental loss of track of time, feeling of disorientation etc., which, in their turn, can potentially decrease the quality of knowledge obtained as well as skills that are being formed. This negative phenomenon can also potentially affect all aspects of training of future healthcare professionals thus this issue requires dedicated scientific research and proper methodical and methodological recommendation.
Perspectives of future research imply proper analysis of the level of development of HPC in applicant for higher education of different years of study as well as to distinguish the factors that negatively impact the formation of health-preserving competence under the conditions of continuous distance learning; corresponding recommendations for the educators of MHEIs aimed at improving the quality of knowledge obtained by the students as well as the skills formed will be designed.

Published: June 2022

The article is dedicated to a topical issue of developing media literacy in non-language university students as a component of teaching them English as a foreign language. The notions of media, mass media, media education, its aim, tasks and media literacy as its result, WebQuest and Journalistic Task WebQuest are commented upon. Media are understood as the modern channels of communication including physical and online newspapers and magazines, television, radio, telephone, the Internet, fax and billboards. Media education is interpreted as teaching the theory and practical skills of acquiring and applying mass media as a part of pedagogical theory and practice. It is aimed at developing students' ability to use mass communication effectively in the society. The tasks of media education relate to the critical analysis of information, creating media texts; evaluating their sources, as well as their political, social, commercial, cultural interests and context; interpreting media texts and values spread by them; selecting appropriate media to create and disseminate media texts; accessing necessary media as a means of obtaining and transferring information. Media literacy is viewed as the result of media education. Among its components are the ability to interpret and evaluate various documents by means of observation, reading, applying logical inferences to evaluate the reliability of arguments; the ability to effectively cooperate with various partners and to make ideas clear for others; the ability to apply both previous abilities in using different types of media. The term of "WebQuest" is understood as "an inquiry-oriented lesson format in which most or all the information that learners work with comes from the web". The Journalistic Task WebQuest presupposes the critical evaluation of the reliability of information and using it to answer questions, present events or problems.
On the basis of the theoretical analysis of scientific literary sources and samples the authors suggest a Journalistic Task WebQuest designed for the first (Bachelor's) level students of 201 "Agronomy" specialty and substantiate its expedience.

Towards Co-existence. Responsibility in the Anthropocene Debate
Authors: Szyndler Jeremiasz 
Published: June 2022

P. Crutzen and E. Stoermer’s concept that humanity has entered a new geological epoch – the Anthropocene, in which the human species has become the leading geological force, is the subject of multidisciplinary scientific research. The debate on the Age of Man reconnects the sphere of facts and the normative sphere, while still continuing the eco-developmental concept oriented towards the search for new socio-economic solutions. One of the assumptions of the naturalistic narrative of the Anthropocene is the conviction that human action has the greatest impact on the environment and we are responsible for its condition. Often compared in literature to other great revolutions in science – Copernicus‘ and Darwin‘s theory – the paradigm shift in thinking in the Anthropocene forces us to rethink the key concepts of classical philosophy: human, nature, responsibility. The article presents an outline of the ethical debate on responsibility in the Anthropocene, considering its collective and individual aspects, and introduces a new concept of co-existence, which integrates ecosystems with the technosphere.
Optimization of the electrospun-aligned microfiber composite with liquid crystal for terahertz wave variable phase shifters
Authors: Lang Trong Nghia , Inoue Yo , Moritake Hiroshi 
Published: June 2022

Abstrcat
In this study, electrospun microfibers (MFs) were produced and used as key materials to optimize the composite with liquid crystal (LC) for terahertz (THz) wave phase shifters. These MFs, with an average diameter of 1.4 μm, were produced using the polymer solution concentration of 14 wt% and spinning voltage of 13 kV. When MFs were combined with LC, the measured results of the electrical characteristics showed that 14 wt% MFs provided an outstanding solution to the problem of a significant reduction in the natural birefringence of pure LC. The birefringence in the THz frequency range of the composite using 14 wt% MFs approached 90% compared with that using pure LC. Additionally, the decay time drastically shortened from hundreds of seconds for pure LC to hundreds of milliseconds for MF/LC composite and was independent of device thickness.
Dissociation mechanism of a C60-Li+ complex by microscopic hydration: density functional theory study
Authors: Kawabata Hiroshi , Tachikawa Hiroto 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
The hydration structure and electronic state of Li+ doped complexes on the surface of C60 were investigated by density functional theory calculations. This system is a simple model for the solvation of Li+ at the anode of a lithium-ion battery. C60 and Li+ bind at approximately 35 kcal mol−1. The new band of C60 formed the lowest excited state, 0.1 eV smaller after interaction with Li+. The water molecule preferentially interacted with the Li portion of the C60-Li+ complex, and a micro-hydration structure was formed around Li+. When four or more water molecules were added to the system, Li+ was removed from the C60 surface by the water molecules, and a hydration shell was formed around both Li+ and C60 (separate hydration). The electronic interaction between C60 and Li+ was completely disrupted by the formation of a microscopic-hydrated shell. Herein, the mechanism is discussed based on the theoretical results.

Published: June 2022

<p>We study $P(n,3)$, the size of the largest subset of the set of all permutations $S_n$ with minimum Kendall $\tau$-distance $3$. Using a combination of group theory and integer programming, we reduced the upper bound of $P(p,3)$ from $(p-1)!-1$ to $(p-1)!-\lceil\frac{p} 3}\rceil+2\leq (p-1)!-2$ for all primes $p\geq 11$. In special cases where $n$ is equal to $6,7,11,13,14,15$ and $17$ we reduced the upper bound of $P(n,3)$ by $3,3,9,11,1,1$ and $4$, respectively.</p>
Amassing Global History
Authors: De Luna Kathryn M. 
Published: June 2022

This essay takes as its framework the competing definitions of ‘global’ as a concept through which we can reconsider the scope of global history. More specifically, it advocates for the adoption of truly global archives, such as the historical information embedded in language, by the field. Such a methodological move will generate historical scholarship that better situates the impact of oral societies in global history on their own terms.

Gift Exchanging Practices between the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies and the Ottoman Empire: ‘Cose Turche’ and Strange Animals
Authors: D'Amora Rosita 
Published: June 2022

Between August 1741 and the spring of 1743, following the conclusion of a treaty between the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies and the Porte, Naples became the stage of a series of attentively choreographed events starring two special guests: Hacı Hüseyin Efendi, an envoy of the sultan Mahmud I and an elephant, presented as a sultan's gift to the King Charles of Bourbon. Both guests became a public spectacle, aroused great curiosity, and generated many written and visual responses. Resorting to both the Neapolitan court-sponsored textual and visual reconstructions and to unpublished archival documents, this article shows how the both on- and off-stage performances arranged to present the envoy, and the sultan's gifts, had the clear intent of leaving a long-lasting impression on the new Ottoman ally, but also aimed to assert the power of the Bourbon king inspiring sentiments of wonder, admiration and devotion in his subjects.
