<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> In the proposed SAFEDAM system, aerial and satellite-based information is used for the monitoring of river bodies, flood monitoring during the event, and for post-disaster damage assessment. UAV constitute a valuable source of information about the current situation in the field during the operation of emergency services. Time is crucial, and the basic assumption to use UAV remote sensing data is to make them available immediately after landing. Therefore, the approach of automatic orthomosaics created based on the exterior orientation of the transmitted images using direct georeference was selected instead of sophisticated automatic on-the-fly image-matching and georeferencing. The article conveys the justification for selecting this option in order to process orthomosaics with lower localisation accuracy in a short time. The developed algorithm takes into account the elements of exterior and interior orientation of the camera as well as the digital terrain model. The evaluation of the orthomosaic was conducted based on theorthophoto created in post-processing. Thanks to the approach used, images from the platform are available in the near real time on the screen of the interventional mode of the SAFEDAM system and are an extremely valuable and informative source of data. The system also integrates tools, which support the management of the action and prepares site documentation.</p>

Full textAbstract:
Background: Emergency Department (ED) nurses are familiar with high levels of turnover and staff burnout. All EDs have faced unprecedented stressors related to the global COVID-19 pandemic including higher patient acuity, senior staff attrition, and increased numbers of less-experienced new hires. In one combined pediatric and adult tertiary ED, senior nursing staff identified a need for integrating formalized mentorship for new staff in the current nursing orientation. Three senior, experienced, Registered Nurses (Mentor Leads) developed and implemented a volunteer-based, staff-led mentorship initiative piloted throughout 2021.
 Implementation: Mentor Leads conducted stakeholder consultation with recent new hires and senior staff prior to proposing the mentorship program model to management and the education team in November 2020. Support obtained allocated Mentor Leads two hours of classroom department orientation to conduct virtual presentations with new hires (Mentees). The presentation was structured as a nursing assignment simulation with opportunities for open discussion; it reviewed emergency case scenarios, prioritization/time management, department flow, multidisciplinary communication, and staff roles and resources. Then groups of two to four nursing Mentors, with at least one year of experience in the department, provided sequential in-person and email check-ins throughout the first six-months of the Mentees’ employment. Electronic materials, including mentorship expectations and resources, were disseminated to the Mentors to support them during their mentorship term.
 Evaluation Methods: Qualitative feedback was sought from Mentors and Mentees at the end of their mentorship term. Both were asked to describe any personal benefit gained from participation in the program, any challenges they recognized, and if/how the program impacted their future employment in the department. In addition, Mentees were asked to provide survey feedback following the orientation presentation.
 Results: The mentorship program was applied to all nine orientation groups hired in 2021. A total of 70 new hires participated as Mentees. Twenty-one volunteer Mentors were utilized to lead the orientation groups. Initial qualitative feedback for the orientation presentation and the six-month follow-up was universally positive. Qualitative themes included enhanced preparedness concerning department realities, feeling welcomed by staff, and improved understanding of department flow and avenues of assistance. One Mentee shared that, without the program they would have considered seeking new opportunities outside of the emergency department setting shortly after orientation.
 Mentors expressed a crucial need for the program and shared that their responsibilities and expectations were manageable. Mentors felt the email communication structure was less effective than the in-person check-ins. An incidental benefit of the program’s implementation was its positive effect on staff participating as Mentors. They reported that their experience with the program provided them with purpose, decreased levels of burnout, and strengthened their teaching and leadership skills. Qualitative feedback from Mentor Leads and experienced staff report that department mentorship culture as a whole has been enhanced by the program.
 Advice and Lessons Learned: 
 
 Strong partnership with key stakeholders, including management and the nursing education team, was vital to implementing a successful mentorship program in the department. Concerns voiced by Mentors regarding Mentee overall performance and potential practice challenges were escalated to department Clinical Nurse Educators in order to provide targeted educational support for the success of staff.
 The role of strong and determined Mentor Leads were key to conduct the necessary building, implementation, and preservation of the program. A significant amount of invested time was required to ensure program success. Consideration should be given to fiscal resources to incentivize staff-led grassroots mentorship programs.
 Future program evaluation hopes to include detailed evaluation of objective data comparing levels of nurse turnover and vacancy rates pre- and post-implementation of the program, and an economic evaluation.
 Future opportunities for this program are to expand mentorship to staff new to resuscitation, triage, and charge nurse roles within the department, as well as replicate the work to other local and provincial EDs.

The methods and results of seismic hazard zoning are investigated for the Russian Federation territory and abroad. The input data used in the zoning procedure, aimed at revealing the boundaries of areas with stable seismic intensity attenuation parameters have been analyzed. The zoning procedure has been developed for determining the boundaries of territories, within which the macroseismic field parameters (i.e., the coefficients in N.V. Shebalin’s equation; the orientation of the elliptic isoseist axes, as well as the ratio of their semi-axes) show close values in each point. Examples are given in distinguishing zones characterized by quasi-stable parameters for separate regions, as well as in calibrating the computer model of the macroseismic field. The case studies are considered in the presence of a complete set of input data and under conditions of their insufficiency. The efficiency of the macroseismic field calibrated models application in the Extremum system in order to increase the reliability of near real time earthquake loss estimations is shown.

Full textAbstract:
Public health and effective risk response cannot be promoted without a coordinated emergency process during a natural disaster. One primary problem with the emergency relief chain is the homogeneous layout of rescue organizations and reserves. There is a need for government-enterprise coordination to enhance the systemic resilience and demand orientation. Therefore, a bi-level multi-phase emergency plan model involving procurement, prepositioning and allocation is proposed. The tradeoff of efficiency, economy and fairness is offered through the multi-objective cellular genetic algorithm (MOCGA). The flood emergency in Hunan Province, China is used as a case study. The impact of multi-objective and coordination mechanisms on the relief chain is discussed. The results show that there is a significant boundary condition for the coordinated location strategy of emergency facilities and that further government coordination over the transition phase can generate optimal relief benefits. Demand orientation is addressed by the proposed model and MOCGA, with the realization of the process coordination in multiple reserves, optimal layout, and transition allocation. The emergency relief chain based on government-enterprise coordination that adapts to the evolution of disasters can provide positive actions for integrated precaution and health security.

This design case documents the reimagination of new faculty orientation for a mid-sized public university due to the COVID-19 global pandemic. This fully virtual iteration was facilitated during the summer of 2020 and is compared both to previous in-person iterations of new faculty orientation as well as a blended modality version of the orientation program offered in 2021. The redesign is explained using language from Puntedura’s (2006) Substitution- Augmentation- Modification- Redefinition (SAMR) model of technology application in distributed learning. Such terminology provided a helpful common vocabulary for a design team pressured to determine which elements of orientation needed to be fully reimagined for successful virtual implementation and where simple substitution would suffice. A description of synchronous elements from the fully virtual orientation as well as artifacts from the asynchronous portions is included. A lack of formal evaluation for the reimagined new faculty orientation space is shared as an element of design failure. The informal evaluation uncovered attendee appreciation of both flexibility and recursiveness, feedback our design team used to combat criticism of a lack of attention during virtual events. The paper concludes with a reflection on the need for transparent communication between event attendees, event designers, and other key invested partners (such as university administration) if the benefits of virtual orientation programming are to be adopted for our institution beyond emergency modalities.

There has been an emergency paradigm shift in teaching and learning in the private universities of Bangladesh resulting from the complete shutdown of the educational institutions for an indefinite period due to Covid-19. While the shift to online classes remains operative with doubts and enthusiasm, the activities showed a considerable achievement and positive shift in attitude towards this mode in the past few weeks which showcase the prospects of online classes with some areas to address and problems to be solved. So, the stakeholders’ opinions, experiences and suggestions can be handy in capitalizing on, and utilizing this mode in coming days. Drawing on data from both the students and faculty members of different departments of Green University of Bangladesh (GUB), we illustrate the need to address and improve several areas including current state of mind of the stakeholders, potentials of the online classes as an alternative to onsite classes, the need for assurance of some facilities and orientation of this type of techno-based new modes as precautionary to emergency. Though online instructions are not new in many parts of the world, we argue that it is here in Bangladesh a new experience with a very limited practice, and so it requires some corrections, improvisations and special considerations on the part of the concerned authorities to make the mode a viable solution to teaching-learning in the impasse resulting from the complete shutdown in the current crisis.

In response to the spread of the Covid‑19 pandemic, the President of South Africa declared a national lockdown that commenced on 27 March 2020. This posed numerous challenges to the higher education sector, one of which was the preparation of students forced to stay at home to be able to study remotely under unique and often unfavourable circumstances. This article outlines and reflects on the conceptualisation, development, and implementation of an online orientation programme aimed at preparing students to rapidly move to emergency remote learning as a result of a nationwide lockdown. Teaching and Learning Centre staff in the Faculty of Commerce, Law and Management at a South African university rapidly created a short online orientation programme in the institutional Learning Management System, using Salmon’s five-stage model as a conceptual framework. The objective was to enable students to acquire the skills and knowledge required for continuing with the university academic programme from 20 April 2020 via emergency remote learning. The orientation programme covered the priority areas of how to get started in emergency remote learning, broad study skills, how to use the required technologies for learning, and managing personal well‑being during social isolation and emergency remote learning. In this article, the conceptualisation and development of the orientation programme is analysed, before reflecting on its implementation, challenges, mitigating measures, and lessons learned. Feedback from students indicates that the majority of students felt more prepared for continuing the academic programme, although they still reported feeling anxious about the many uncertainties. The intervention emerges as a useful strategy for helping students transition during a crisis and contributes to the understanding of how to prepare students for rapid transition to Emergency Remote Learning.

Full textAbstract:
The use of computer systems like safety-related systems to ensure the functional safety of high-risk objects has raised them in the development of resources to the level of diversification. At the same time, the digital components, traditionally designed on the basis of array structures, remained at the lower level of a replication of resources. This discrepancy has created a problem of the hidden faults that can be accumulated in digital components during a prolonged normal mode and reduce their fault tolerance and system functional safety in the most critical emergency mode. Bitwise pipelines related to the level of resource diversification allow solving the problem of the hidden faults, but they are compelled to compete with the array structures, for which a powerful supporting infrastructure has been created for many decades. The paper presents a comparative analysis of the efficiency of FPGA-basedbitwise pipelines and matrix structures. Studies have shown that bitwise pipelines exhibit high efficiency exceeding that of the matrix structures in terms of both performance and energy consumption, even when designing a matrix orientation on CAD. Since such orientation reduces the advantages of bitwise pipelines, a method is proposed to increase their efficiency, which improves their throughput and energy consumption, whilemaking a cårtain concessionsto the matrix orientation of CAD. Thiswould beparticularly importantduring the transitional period, while the traditions of matrix domination are to be overcome and the of bitwise pipeline computing is to be formed.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Introduction As an acuity adaptable unit is is sometimes difficult to get nurses through an orientation in a manner that doesn't scare them off but still covers all their educational needs. The number of fluid resuscitations seen is approximately 30 per year which means that when one occurs new nursing staff needs to have exposure. However, it is a difficult experience to work through a large ICU admission as a new nurse even with preceptor support. Due to these issues the unit adopted a tiered orientation process. This process set forth task blocks as a focus during orientation versus entire patient care. For example, the new nurse and preceptor assignment could be the new fluid resuscitation in week one of orientation. However, the new nurse would only work on documentation of patient care. The preceptor would be responsible for procedures, dressing changes, fluid, and pharmacologic management that goes into caring for the acute burn. the new nurse could also be a part of these processes but that is not their focus during Tier 1. In Tier 2 the new nurse would start providing more patient care in addition to their documentation, the preceptor would still perform ICU level care items. In the final tier the orientee would do all direct care of the patient including documenation. This tiered approach allowed nurses to experience all levels of patient care without overwhelming them. Methods The process was brought to the shift coordinators to give them all a sense of how staffing assignments would be made during orientation. Education was presented to preceptors at unit council meetings and then in 1 on 1 meetings as needed. Additional, touch base meetings occurred every other week during the start of this process starting in May of 2022. During this time 7 new nurses were on-boarded. 7 unique preceptors were utilized. New hires were met with weekly on an informal basis from weeks 1-5 by either the clinical educator or the nurse manager. Each new nurse and their preceptor had formal meetings with the nurse manager, clinical educator or both at 6, 10 and 12 weeks. A short survey was sent to all preceptors following the initial 5 months of this new process. Results 50% of all preceptors found this new model to be an improvement over the previous model. 33% did not agree or disagree on if the process was an improvement. 2 out of the 7 preceptors had not precepted before which might account for the 33%. 40% of the preceptors felt satisfied with the overall process for orientation. 83% of the preceptors felt that they had adequate resources to orient new nurses to the unit. Conclusions It appears that the adoption of a tiered process worked well during the initial evaluation phase. However, the n was small and additional evaluation would be beneficial to further address how impactful a tiered orientation process is for on-boarding new nursing staff. Applicability of Research to Practice It important for nursing leaders to evaluate and update how to best meet the needs of staff to create competency and safety.

Full textAbstract:
The spectral properties of chiral liquid crystal layers, where surface anchoring on one of the surfaces is binary (planar-homeotropic) modulated by photoinduced orientation, have been studied. Optical spectra for such layers have been measured not only along the normal to the layer, but also in the waveguide mode in a cholesteric liquid crystal layer. It has been shown that an electric field perpendicular to the layer induces an orientational transition of the original planar Grandjean structure with the helix axis perpendicular to the layer to a state with a deformed “lying” helix, when the axis lies in the plane of the layer. The effect of changing the direction of the helix axis is manifested in the emergence of photonic stop bands in the optical spectrum of light propagating in the waveguide mode.

Full textAbstract:
Climate change adaptation coevolves with urban development trajectories presenting decision-makers with a choice of positioning adaptation to protect or revise development. This relational view of adaptation in the context of large cities opens questions on the ways in which city and other actors interact. This interaction may be as or more important than resource and information access for shaping the adaptive capacity and direction of such assemblages. Transitions between modes of adaptation are little understood and will likely combine autonomous and deliberate change both incremental and transformative. Using London as a case study, the paper identifies the contemporary adaptation regime to extreme events and its lines of movement. Interviews and a scenario workshop with resilience planners and emergency managers show the orientation of London’s adaptation is firmly positioned in a mode of resilience, protecting development through flexibility. Maintaining resilience to extremes under conditions of economic austerity is seen to result in the shifting of risk management burdens onto those at risk. Self-reliance is emerging as a mechanism for deepening the resilience mode of adaptation. At the same time, when considering potential risks for extreme events in 2035, most planners express a desire for more transformative adaptation that can tackle root causes in social conditions. A gap is revealed between the professional judgment of risk and resilience planning needs and likely trajectories constrained by national administrations and policy.

Full textAbstract:
After a typhoon disaster, selecting effective paths is crucial for ensuring the efficiency of emergency rescue operations and the distribution of essential supplies, which are vital for sustainable disaster response and community resilience. Current research into disaster scenarios is less aligned with actual scenarios as road conditions are hard to predict. This paper, set against the backdrop of typhoon disasters, employs netizens’ sentiment data to indirectly assess post-disaster road conditions and refine the calculation formula for road failure probabilities. This approach aims to identify failure-resistant paths to guide disaster relief decisions, thereby supporting sustainable disaster relief operations and minimizing resource expenditure. First, an expression form for road segment failure probability is established, considering factors such as tree falls, landslides, and waterlogging. Second, negative sentiment coefficients, derived from social media data analysis, are used to adjust road failure probabilities, reflecting the sentiments of affected communities. Then, a failure-resistant path selection model based on these adjusted road failure probabilities is proposed to enhance the resilience and sustainability of emergency transport paths. Finally, the model’s effectiveness is validated using Typhoon “In-Fa” in Ningbo as a case study.

Using coastal buildings for the emergency evacuation process in an unexpected tsunami event is an effective measure in flat widespread coastal areas. This is especially true in countries such as Japan located adjacent to the faults of tectonic plates, and having only a very limited time frame for evacuation following a tsunami warning. Well-constructed tsunami evacuation buildings can play a vital role under such circumstances. This makes proper understanding of tsunami force and its variation in different building configurations vital in the engineering design of such buildings. In this study, we assessed tsunami force estimation methods for buildings consisting of openings. We also discuss the influence of their internal configurations and orientations for incoming tsunami flow based on physical model experiments and numerical simulation and analysis. Results indicated that the arrangement of internal building configurations with large openings is important in estimating tsunami force, and that building orientation related to the direction in which the tsunami approaches also affects tsunami force, mainly due to the change in effective area directly facing the tsunami.

This paper explores faculty members’ concerns and level of preparedness for open and distance learning (ODL) at the University of Malawi’s School of Education during the recent Covid-19 pandemic within a context that considers ODL as a means of mitigating the impact of the pandemic on teaching and learning. Data were gathered through semi-structured interviews with four experienced academic leaders within the school of education. The Concerns Based Adoption Model (CBAM), particularly stages of concerns, served as a framework to understand the faculty’s concerns about the implementation of ODL initiatives. Inductive and deductive analysis approaches were used to analyse the interview transcripts to identify emerging themes. Deductive analysis revealed that faculty members expressed several concerns such as awareness, informational, as well as consequences concerns as they talked about their feelings and attitudes towards the implementation of ODL. Inductive analysis on the other hand revealed that faculty members’ perceptions such as minimal preparation, negative orientations, and lack of policy awareness hamper the implementation of ODL. These findings underscore the importance of members’ orientation change to ensure effective implementation of ODL in contexts like the institution under study. We discuss these and propose that professional development could help members develop positive attitudes towards ODL.

The grounding of the supports determines the resistive, the most significant component of the overvoltage acting on the insulation gap between the lightning rod and the equipment of the electrical substation when lightning strikes the lightning rod. (Research purpose) The research purpose is in developing recommendations for the grounding devices for lightning rod supports and means of suppressing sliding spark channels in a multi-wire system. (Materials and methods) The estimation of the share of lightning current in the grounding conductor of the lightning rod support can be calculated simplistically. This makes it possible to abandon the solution of long-line wave equations and switch to a substitution scheme with concentrated parameters, in which the active and inductive resistances of sections of an electric circuit loaded with lightning current should be considered, with mandatory consideration of inductive connections between them. (Results and discussion) The article presents the calculation for a pulse with an oblique front and a flat head, which is traditionally used to estimate the number of reverse overlaps on an overhead power transmission line when a lightning strike hit a support. It was assumed that the lightning strike occurred in the extreme thunderstorm, the current load mode of which is the least favorable. The greatest current load of the grounding conductor of the support corresponds to a direct lightning strike, when the current amplitude there differs from the current amplitude of the first component in the lightning channel by no more than 25 percent, this mode should be taken as the calculated one when estimating the maximum length of the sliding spark channel. (Conclusions) The maximum lengths of sliding spark channels in soils of different conductivity were determined using computer modeling of an emergency situation of a lightning strike, provided that the reinforced concrete foundations of the lightning rod supports connected by an underground horizontal bus are used as grounding conductors of lightning rods. The most effective means of limiting the danger of sliding spark channels is their forced orientation to the side, which is safe for the grounding circuit of an electric substation.

Full textAbstract:
Innovation Concept: The Calgary Audit and Feedback Framework (CAFF) is an innovative tool developed by the Physician Learning Program (PLP). By addressing four key factors –relationships, question choice, data visualization, and facilitation – CAFF addresses common barriers to physicians receiving their practice data. The goal of this study is to assess whether CAFF-facilitated physician performance improvement (PPI) sessions: 1) improve physicians’ receptiveness to their practice data, and 2) encourage physicians to both identify opportunities for practice change and create action plans. Methods: Peer facilitators were trained to facilitate PPI sessions using the CAFF model. In Calgary, 51/180 emergency physicians have attended at least one of the six PPI sessions. The sessions were evaluated using surveys, commitment to change forms, and the Feedback Orientation Scale (FOS). The FOS is a scale developed to measure a participant's orientation to performance feedback across the four domains of utility, accountability, social awareness, and feedback self-efficacy. Curriculum, Tool, or Material: The PLP has developed and implemented CAFF as a framework to help foster socially constructed learning in audit and group feedback sessions. The CAFF model ensures that the aforementioned four key factors are considered for design and implementation of audit and group feedback. The PLP found that establishing the meaning and credibility of the data is a necessary precursor to reflection and action planning. Conclusion: The FOS was completed for 25/32 physicians. The mean FOS score improved by 0.339 (p < 0.001; z=−3.863). While the mean scores all four domains increased, ‘Feedback Self-Efficacy’ increased the most by .0620 (p < 0.001; z=−3.999). Participants reported that examples of changes made by the peer facilitators were particularly helpful. Evaluations from the sessions suggested physicians overwhelmingly agreed or strongly agreed that the peer comparison was valuable, that the reports helped them reflect on their practice, and that the session helped them identify learning opportunities and strategies to change their practice.

Volunteer healthcare professionals and students (termed “volunteers”) form Medical Assistance Teams (MAT) at these MGEs. MAT deployments manage a variety of patient presentations which include critically ill patients. This reduces high acuity patient transfers to the hospital and, where possible, avoid ambulance and hospital utilization.Aim:To determine the effectiveness of interdisciplinary prehospital simulation workshops in preparing volunteers for MAT deployment at MGEs.Methods:A one-day, simulation-based training session within the MAT environment was implemented to introduce volunteers to the management of various scenarios faced at MGEs. All volunteers were provided an orientation to the equipment and setting up MAT deployments at MGEs. Volunteers then participated in interdisciplinary group-based scenarios such as cardiac arrest management, drug intoxication, spinal injuries, agitated patients, and airway management. To determine the effectiveness of this training session, volunteers were invited to participate in a post-training survey, comprising of Likert scores and open-ended responses.Results:Seventeen volunteers attended the training session with 10 (58.8%) completing the post-training survey. Volunteers were satisfied with environment familiarization in the MAT (Average 4.47/5.00) and found the simulation-based training helpful (Average 3.67/4.00). The induction overall was well-received (4.60/5.00) with volunteers feeling more confident in being deployed at MGEs (4.20/5.00).Discussion:The results of the simulation-based training session were positive with volunteers receptive to the need for a training day prior to MAT deployment at MGEs. The simulation session enables volunteers to be comfortable with working in MAT and managing a diverse range of patients at MGEs. This session is likely to improve interdisciplinary communication and teamwork in the MAT. Future research is aimed at following these volunteers after several MAT deployments to improve the training session for future participants.

Abstract Introduction Burn is not a required rotation for general surgery residency training. Additionally, mandates on resident work hours have created a deficiency in resident support for many burn programs across the country. Subsequently, the need to transition to an Advanced Practice Provider (APP) service was identified. At our institution, a medium volume (~250 admissions/year) burn center, we created an APP service and evaluated the evolution and lessons learned during the transition. Methods Timeline of recruitment of APPs was reviewed along with the recruitment process, onboarding process and orientation process. Exit interviews were conducted with all APPs who resigned to delineate strengths and weakness of the APP program. Functionality of the institution’s APP recruiter, manager and Lead Burn APP (LAPP) were reviewed as well. Results Between 2014 and 2021 the daytime burn APP service expanded from two to six APPs and the Night House Officer (NHO) APP service was created and expanded to four APPs. Based on thorough review of the APP program, key changes were made including improvements in team communication, daily nurse-driven rounds, the 90-day focused professional performance evaluation (FPPE), enhanced and structured education, and critical care exposure. The need for a LAPP was identified and designated in 2019. The LAPP is responsible for making an equitable schedule, execution of new APP orientation, organizing the 90 day FPPE and ongoing professional performance evaluation (OPPE), monthly APP peer review and APP meetings, coordinating OR coverage, and functioning as an APP advocate at division leadership. The LAPP enacted changes to the existing hiring/onboarding process as described below. All APPs are now recruited through an APP recruiter who discusses the hospital contract and salary as well as organizes the logistics of the interview, formalizes the offer, and aids with the transition to credentialing. All new APPs are given a hospital onboarding checklist, that includes hospital orientation, APP boot camp, simulation and electronic health record training classes. In addition they are given a clinical orientation checklist, which includes BLS/ABLS/ACLS/ATLS certification, exposure to various phases of patient care, tracking of quantitative patient care metrics, participation in monthly burn APP peer review and burn triage simulation. There are subtle differences with the NHO APP clinical checklist. After 90 days of employment a new employee FPPE is held with the LAPP and burn director. This allows for direction of areas to focus on, comprehensive feedback, and discussion about increasing autonomy. Conclusions Through a focused process, APPs can play an integral role in the daily functioning of a burn center. We believe that a similar effective and financially sound model can be created for similar sized units.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Introduction Recruitment efforts just after the recent COVID crises brought in several new graduate nurses. They had limited clinical exposure during COVID-19 resulting in difficulty transitioning into practice providing safe patient care. As a result, these nurses lacked the fundamental knowledge needed to care for acutely ill burn and wound patients resulting in the new graduate registered nurses (NGRNs) feeling overwhelmed at the bedside. These findings coincide with assessments noted in Kavanagh and Sharpnack’s (2021), article identifying only 9% of NGRNs were practice ready, with 7% failing to recognize urgency or a change in a patient’s condition. Methods In order to achieve the designated American Burn Association (ABA) competencies, our center designed a program based on Patricia Benner’s Novice to Expert nursing theory. Additionally, we divided the competencies into achievable goals and domains using the Donna Wright's nursing competency model. StaRN program: didactics/simulation/skills/unit orientation one on one with a preceptor Competency based staged orientation program for new staff Burn Specific Education includes: 1) Burn and complex wound care didactic 2) Burn specific High-fidelity simulation scenario utilizing critical care equipment promoting critical thinking and critical reasoning skills 3) Task trainers 4) On-going preceptor education 5) Nurse Extern program Results NGRNS arriving at our unit in early 2020 were found to be incapable of performing clinical tasks in the burn ICU (BICU) setting at the level of competency recommended by the ABA. We immediately placed this cohort into the revised training program incorporating Benners Novice to Expert Theory and Wright’s Competency Model. Of the 25, 17 were able to be placed in the BICU (68%), and 8 were able to transfer to a lower level of care (progressive care/med-surg). All 25 were given extended orientation (12 weeks instead of the normal 8, as recommended by our facility). We will follow this group to determine retention rates. Conclusions Current levels of competencies by the ABA creates gaps in care for graduate nurses entering the workforce with deficits. Applying Benner's Novice to Expert Theory and Wright’s Competency Model to modify approaches to training helps identify gaps in care, addresses areas that are weak for the nurse, and help guide the graduate nurse through stages of expertise to arrive more confidently at the level of competency expected by the ABA.

BackgroundThe formal training for Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) in Taiwan was legislated by Emergency Medical Care Services Act in 1995. Very little research discusses the competency of EMTs. The purpose of this study was to assess the determinants of competency for the EMT-II in Taiwan.MethodIn June 2005, a cross-sectional survey was targeted on firefighters with EMT-II certificate and having a minimum work experience of three months in central Taiwan. Kirkpatrick's (1994) four-level model guided the development of conceptual framework and questionnaire. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was adopted for the analysis.ResultsOne thousand and seventy-three EMT-IIs were included in the study. Majority of them were male (99.4%) with an average age of 34.46 years old. Among them, 96.5% were careered EMTs with 130.33 months of field experiences. The competency of EMT-II was measured by 4 indicators of error reduction, quality improvement, achievement orientation, and efficiency improvement. The construct of ‘Capability Enhancement’ dominated EMT-IIs' ‘Competency’, followed by ‘Length of Time for Field experience’, ‘Instructor Expertise’, ‘TA Expertise’, and ‘Willingness to Learn’. Both ‘Age’ and ‘Total Course Time’ had a negative effect on ‘Competency’. ‘Capability Enhancement’ was mainly influenced by ‘Practice Absorption’ and ‘Theory Absorption’, followed by “Willingness to Learn”, ‘Instructor Expertise’, ‘Total Course Time’, ‘TA Expertise’, ‘Self Confidence’ and ‘Practicum Time in Ambulance Station’. However, the construct of ‘Teaching Technique” imposed a negative effect on ‘Capability Enhancement’.ConclusionThe SEM model explains 75.7% of the variances in competency for EMT-IIs. The ‘Competency’ is dominated by ‘Capability Enhancement’. Improving the quality of course, instead of time, and recruiting younger EMT-IIs may advance the competency. Modification of ‘Teaching Technique’ may enhance the capability of EMT-IIs.

Full textAbstract:
As a response to the grand societal challenges reflected in the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the transition towards sustainability has gained momentum in recent years, as has the debate on mission-orientation in innovation policy. Harnessing the positive transformation potential for innovation, is about collaboratively exploring complex and uncertain pathways, especially when the goal is sustainable local economic development. Nevertheless, the demand for participatory approaches posed by the re-emergence of mission-orientated innovation policy, and the conditions for their successful implementation at the local level, particularly in the framework of economic development, are poorly understood and not yet in the focus of the current debate. This article conceptualises participation as a new mode of governance for sustainable local economic development, and links it to mission-orientation in innovation policy. We differentiate forms, degree of involvement and target groups, as well as highlight the underlying rationales and modes of interactions. Based on action-research carried out over three years in the city of Bottrop, Germany, we conceptualise an ideal-typical practice of participatory governance. Our findings show that firms are willing to participate in sustainable local economic development, only if they can internalise at least part of the value-added.

Full textAbstract:
The development of heavy speed freight train communications in the Russian Federation results in the increased thermal loading of braking system elements of rolling-stock, in particular, in shoe brakes. Taking into account the requirements of branch program documents on wheel life increase, it is evident that the further development of freight communications requires a complex application of thermal diagnostics means for auto-brake equipment of rolling-stock during a train motion. 
 The statistics shows that the fifth part of wheel pair failures is connected with thermal-mechanical damages and the situation goes on to be aggravated. In view of this hardware and software means for thermal diagnostics of shoe brakes require further improvement. The purpose of this paper is the process investigation of shoe brake thermal control by method of computer simulation and the estimate of infrared optics position impact upon control results. 
 There is considered a model for the definition of a scanning path and computation of a signal level being part of a complex simulation model of wheel thermal control. The model offered is based on the methods of solid dynamics system investigations in the basis of which there is an application of theorems on mass center motion and changes of a solid kinetic moment. 
 The model is used for finding a form and a spot area at every time moment of scanning by a solution of a problem on a dynamic spatial intersection of a wheel surface with the control area. There are considered different versions of optics orientation to an object of control for each of which for the first time there are obtained calculated thermal signals from the object under control. The analysis has shown that at the optics orientation to wheels from the outside a wheel tread appears to be in the control area that allows defining a maximum temperature of a wheel. But at the realization of emergency brake application a sharp short-time temperature increase of a tread is possible which indicates an improper operation of a brake unit. 
 The optics orientation to a wheel from its inner side allows excluding false alarm indices at emergency brake application. The correctness of the results shown in the paper is confirmed by convergence with the results of wheel heating monitoring and environmental tests of experimental complexes of thermal control means of shoe brakes.

Full textAbstract:
The conflicts management mode in the conjugal couple is a process that differs from one couple to another. Within the same couple, this process is likely to undergo changes in direction. In this study, we examine the how and why of the emergence of these divergences. This study aims to understand how the divergence of conflicts management modes occurs in the conjugal couple. This work is based on an inductive approach. The orientation is essentially qualitative, using semi-structured interviews. To analyze this study, we used the Thomas-Kilmann Instrument (TKI) [7], which assesses spouses’ behaviours as a social group in a conflicts situation based on two fundamental dimensions: Assertiveness and cooperation. A) Assertiveness, where the individual seeks to satisfy their own concerns, and B) cooperation, where the individual tries to address the concerns of the other person (empathy/altruism).The results have shown that the conflicts management mode in the conjugal couple is the result of a historical process that is prone to divergences. These, generated by the behaviours of the spouses such as domestic violence, infidelity, disappointment, greed, the expansion of the social circle, as well as acts of altruism and kindness, are capable of tilting the balance of their conflicts resolution mode ranging from assertiveness to empathy towards their partner. This study highlights the influence of the spouses’ behaviours throughout their marital life on their choice of conflicts management mode and therefore on the quality of the marital relationship.

The study explores how the COVID-19 outbreak prompted digital innovation in a Higher Education Institution (HEI) by providing evidence on the dimensions leveraged, the initiatives organised and the organisational results achieved. By means of an exploratory single case study based on a School of Management located in Northern Italy, the study proposes a process model to highlight how digital innovation has been fostered during the emergency. Results highlight the relevance of both technological and cultural aspects that supported the digital transformation during the crisis. The dimensions of digital readiness and cultural openness, together with a defined strategic orientation, represented relevant facilitators of the digital innovation process. In turn, digital innovation had important implications for sustainability, which was fostered by increasing the accessibility to quality education and addressed as a topic of many of the digital contents delivered. Thus, the study contributes to the stream of research that investigates how digital innovation in HEIs and other public administrations happens and how such an innovation can support sustainability. Finally, the paper provides practical implications on both technological and cultural aspects of innovation.

Full textAbstract:
In the field of CO2 capture and sequestration, ensuring the safety of pipeline infrastructure is paramount to successful climate change mitigation efforts. This study investigates the dynamics of CO2 dispersion from pipeline systems, assessing not only the transport process but also the physical properties and associated hazards. Advanced simulation techniques are used to model how different states of CO2 (gas, liquid, and supercritical) and varying pipeline characteristics—such as perforation sizes, flow rates, and orientations—affect the dispersion patterns in the event of a leak. Simulations cover a range of atmospheric conditions, emphasizing the role of atmospheric stability and wind speed in shaping dispersion and defining potential impact zones. An analysis of historical pipeline accidents is included to inform risk management strategies. The results show that the orientation of the pipeline has a significant effect on dispersion, with downward leaks causing the largest impact zones, particularly under supercritical conditions. The results highlight the need for adaptive safety strategies that take into account real-time CO2 transport conditions and localized environmental data. By integrating these factors, the study recommends refining safety protocols and emergency response strategies to improve pipeline resilience and public safety against potential leaks. Key findings include the quantification of the relationship between leak parameters and dispersion areas, providing a valuable framework for future safety improvements.

This study deals with free fall accident analysis involving adults, and their numerical replications using a finite element model of the human thorax. The main purpose is to determine the role of body position at impact in the thorax injury risk appearance. For this study, cases of real-world free-fall provided by an emergency department were selected and investigated. These cases involved both male and female with an age range of 20 to 63 years, who sustained accidental free-fall with both injured and uninjured cases. The examination of the patients' medical record provided helpful information to accurately perform numerical replications with the finite element model HUByx (Hermaphrodite Universal Biomechanical yx model) which was already validated for various experimental tests in the field of automobile, ballistic impacts and blast. The results of simulations at different impact location allowed highlighting the crucial influence of the body orientation in the risk of thoracic injury occurrence.

The work examines scientific literary sources, which provide the results of development and research of orientation, navigation and motion control systems of multi-purpose autonomous unmanned underwater vehicles with complex movement dynamics, in particular when performing missions in a limited space with movement along complex trajectories. Special attention is focused on such modes of movement of devices as trajectory tracking, path-following and way point tracking. An analysis of the means of navigation and control, which can be used to ensure different modes of movement, was carried out, as well as the directions of development of both the unmanned underwater vehicles themselves and their control systems were considered.
 In order to substantiate the development of a control system for a multi-purpose maneuverable mini-class autonomous vehicle, the main requirements are formulated. It is proposed to conduct a synthesis and research of the control system based on the simulation of the dynamics of the movement of the mini-vehicle for different modes of movement in terms of parameters and trajectories, to develop algorithms for the adaptive control of the vehicle, to improve the system orientation and navigation, built on the basis of MEMS sensors. An information model of the development process is proposed and substantiated, which specifies the sequence of determining important parameters and characteristics of the vehicle and performing important stages of synthesis and analysis of the control system.

The objective of this research was to analyze the impact of motivational orientation, perceived opportunity, and the likelihood of dishonest behavior on the academic dishonesty of business students during online exams in the context of Emergency Remote Education (ERE). This is a predominantly quantitative study, operationalized through the application of a questionnaire (180 students from a Brazilian federal university) and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling, specifically the Partial Least Squares method. Additionally, the Collective Subject Discourse (CSD) technique was employed to gather perceptions of the main reasons for the increased occurrence of cheating during online studies. It was identified that unauthorized collective collaboration, cheating, and plagiarism were the most recurring unethical behaviors during this period, justified by the pursuit of higher grades. The CSD pointed out the lack of supervision and punishment, as well as the ease of communication during the online period, as reasons for the increased presence of cheating in ERE compared to face-to-face education. The structural model revealed (i) a negative relationship between motivational orientation and academic dishonesty and (ii) a positive relationship between perceived opportunity and the likelihood of dishonest behavior on academic dishonesty. The study provides empirical evidence of students' perceptions during online exams, offering a potential explanation for (un)ethical behavior and its frequency, as well as a proxy for understanding university behavior in this context.

82 Background: Comprehensive, coordinated care is a key driver of care transformation within the Oncology Care Model. Care coordination provides deliberate, organized, patient centered care initiatives aimed to improve care transitions, patient education, patient engagement and quality of care throughout the care continuum. Methods: Specialty care coordinator nurses were a part of our heath system’s model of care but over the course of our participation in the OCM we have implemented care coordination in our regional locations across 15 additional sites of care. Standardized templates for initial and follow up education were created for oral and parenteral therapies with an emphasis on symptom management education. A patient education tool was developed through a partnership with nursing, pharmacy and physicians across disease groups to outline when a patient should contact their physician or RN care coordinator with symptom issues. Targeted outreach calls and associated documentation templates were created for symptom assessment and adequate follow up. Templates include a pre-chemo orientation call, post treatment follow up phone call within seven days, and post hospital discharge/ED treat and release follow up calls. A team based huddle guideline was developed to provide a means for interdisciplinary communication to assess patients for high risk based upon medical, functional, social, cognitive and behavioral factors that might lead to a hospitalization. Results: Our teams worked closely with EMR specialists and internal data analysts to build appropriate templates and subsequent reports to monitor compliance with documentation, evaluate the number of outreach touch points and effectiveness of interventions on a reduction of hospitalizations and ED utilization. We have noted an a modest decrease in hospitalizations and ED utilization through OCM feedback reports and reconciliation reports. Conclusions: We continue to monitor our monthly hospital admissions and ED utilization across the health system and drill down into the data to determine if there are any opportunities where care coordination outreach and incoming telephone triage could have prevented the admission.

Full textAbstract:
The evacuation of the cruise ship is directly related to the safety of passengers during accidents. The method for avoiding and reducing casualties in accidents has become a research frontier of maritime safety. This paper presents the simulation of a passenger evacuation process using a multi-grid model. In the model, directions of passengers’ movement are extended and the relationship between passengers’ orientation and the walking speed under the inclining condition is also analyzed in detail. Considering the space layout, the attraction of the mainstream crowd and exclusion between individuals, the probability of passengers’ transfer between grids is established. The deck of the cruise ship is taken as the evacuation scenario and four parameters are defined for the scenario according to International Maritime Organization (IMO) guidelines. The process of evacuation in the cruise ship is simulated under upright and inclining conditions. Through the analysis of simulation results, evacuation bottleneck data and the relation between inclined angles and evacuation time are obtained. This work may provide a reference for formulating emergency evacuation plans for cruise ships.

Full textAbstract:
This research proposes the effect of micropolar-Cosserat (MC) parameters (length-scale parameters and Cosserat shear modulus) on the dispersion characteristics of propagating wave modes in periodic composite panels (PCPs). These inbuilt parameters are due to the assumption of the length-scale boundary conditions that allow for capturing the micro-rotational (MR) wave mode along with the flexural ones. A significant contribution of this study is the transformation of the two-dimensional (2-D) periodic composite problem into a series of one-dimensional (1-D) ones using the MC continuum theory. The analysis employs the transfer matrix method in the framework of the state-space approach to investigate periodic systems in the eigenvalue domain. Additionally, Bloch–Floquet's periodic boundary conditions (PBCs) are applied to the unit cell to ensure the periodicity of the system. The main innovation lies in observing veering, locking, and coupling phenomena, which occur due to alterations in lamina orientation and MC parameters. Moreover, the presence of inbuilt parameters renders the dispersion characteristics highly sensitive to even minor coefficient variations, with a mere 1% change significantly impacting eigenmode fluctuations. The sudden bandgap (BG) disappearing nature could be used to identify the accurate value of the coefficient for designing and analyzing PCPs.

Full textAbstract:
Today, the ‘degrowth movement’ is actively developing in Germany. This movement aims to overcome the ‘imperial mode of living’ based on unlimited growth and to shift to the ‘solidary mode of living’ which is socially and ecologically just. In order to reach this goal, it is essential above all to consider what has driven the capitalist growth society in the direction where it is now. This involves the acknowledgement that the emergence of the capitalist growth society is closely related to a specific masculine subjectifying mode. While the ideal of an autonomous masculine subject characterized by the orientation towards growth and achievement dominates, the importance of many activities concerning those in need of care and nature is ignored or hidden from view. It is not unrelated to the fact that in Germany today, a “transnational care extractivism” is spreading as care responsibilities are increasingly taken on by migrant women rather than being distributed between men and women. While the crisis of social reproduction caused by the care deficit is leading to a new hierarchical gender relationship at the global level, not the democratization of gender relations through male participation in care, the discussion of ‘caring masculinities’ tries to explore new alternative masculinities that can overcome the existing masculine subjectifying mode by including care in the construction of masculinities. Thus, in the context of the degrowth movement, the discussion of caring masculinities could be a starting point for enabling forms of social, ecological and gender reproduction that are completely different from the imperial mode of living by placing care for humans and nature at the center.

The study explores the mechanical design, kinematic modeling, and control system integration required to implement the Stewart Platform in the stretcher framework. Key components include actuators, sensors, and a real-time microcontroller to enable adaptive damping and vibration isolation. Advanced control algorithms, including Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) and Model Predictive Control (MPC), are employed to dynamically adjust the platform's position and orientation in response to road conditions. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the system in reducing vibrations and tilt angles during simulated ambulance rides. The platform maintains stability within ±2 degrees of tilt and reduces vertical oscillations by up to 70%. These improvements significantly enhance patient comfort and safety compared to conventional stretchers. This research contributes to the field of biomechanical engineering and emergency medical technology by providing a novel solution for mitigating transport-induced discomfort and potential injuries. Future work will focus on further miniaturization, cost optimization, and integration with telemedicine technologies to monitor and manage patient vitals during transit.</em>

Full textAbstract:
To discover new acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase) inhibiting-based herbicides, twenty-nine novel quinazolin-4(3H)-one derivatives were designed and synthesized based on the aryloxyphenoxypropionate motif. The bioassay results showed that most of the target compounds showed better pre-emergent herbicidal activity against monocotyledonous weeds in a greenhouse. Especially, when applied at 375 g ha−1 under pre-emergence conditions, compound QPP-7 displayed excellent herbicidal activity against monocotyledonous weeds (i.e., E. crusgalli, D. sanguinalis, P. alopecuroides, S. viridis, E. indica, A. fatua, E. dahuricu, S. alterniflora) with inhibition rate >90%, and displayed excellent crop safety to O. sativa, T. aestivum, G. spp, and A. hypogaea. The study of structure-activity relationship (SAR) revealed that the herbicidal activity of target compounds is strongly influenced by the spatial position of R group and the bulk of R1 group on quinazolin-4(3H)-one, and the (R = 6-F, R1 = Me) pattern is confirmed as the optimal orientation. Furthermore, the molecular docking study and the good inhibitory activity of QPP-7 against E. crusgalli ACCase enzyme (IC50 = 54.65 nM) indicated that it may be a ACCase inhibitor. Taken together, the present work demonstrated that compound QPP-7 could serve as a potential lead structure for further developing novel ACCase inhibiting-based herbicide.

Full textAbstract:
A ductile metal matrix (modelled as a nonlinear elastic material) containing a dilute suspension of an iso-oriented lamellar stiff phase (modelled as stiffeners, i.e. zero thickness, rigid inclusions) is subject to a simple shear of finite amount, parallel to the inclusion orientation, and subsequently perturbed through an incremental Mode I loading, uniform at infinity. Solution to this problem permits analytical investigations of the emergence of shear bands and their interaction with a rigid inclusion (involving a stress square-root singularity at its tip) and discloses the mechanisms of ductile failure in reinforced materials (explaining for instance the experimental evidence that shear bands tend to nucleate and grow parallel to thin hard inclusions). Finally, investigated beyond the elliptic range, the obtained solution becomes non-unique and reveals non-decay and singularity of the fields, facts that provide analytical justification for the difficulties associated with numerical treatment of shear bands.

Full textAbstract:
A growing body of research on moral markets—sectors whose raison d’être is to create social value by offering market solutions to social and environmental issues—has offered critical insights into the emergence and growth of these sectors. Less is known, however, about why some firms enter moral markets while others do not. Drawing from research on market entry, organizational identity, and social movements, we develop a theory that highlights the potential of organizational identity to explain variation in entry into moral markets. We then expand our framework by theorizing about contingencies that alter the shape of the relationship between organizational identity and market entry: the flexibility of the organizations’ identity, the type, and orientation of the social movement supporting the moral market, and the mode of market entry (de novo vs de alio). Finally, we discuss the contributions of our framework and opportunities for its extension.

Full textAbstract:
By irradiating the (111) surface of single-crystalline silicon wafers with Ar+ ions in the trampoline mode (high-density flows of low-energy ions) and with the assistance of metal initiator atoms, a transition of those wafers into the “black silicon” optical state was stimulated. This state is characterized by low values of light reflectance (less than 2%) from the irradiated wafer side in a spectral interval from 400 to 1000 nm. Scanning electron microscopy studies showed that this is a result of the emergence of a hierarchical submicron/nanoscale structure at the treated surface of the wafers. This transition can be performed only with the assistance of metal initiator atoms simultaneously evaporated from an auxiliary target in the operating chamber. At the same time, the application of metals initiators affects the effective lifetime of the minority charge carriers in the black state silicon, which is crucial for the efficiency of black silicon application in solar cells. Among the examined metals initiators (Al, Cr, Fe, Ni, Mo, and Cu), only the application of copper made it possible to preserve or even increase the value of this parameter. The electrostatic interaction between free electric charges and dipoles (playing the role of excitons in this case) near the interface in a two-layer system was considered theoretically. It was shown how the system parameters affect the preferable location of excitons and their orientation, which can be applied, e.g., to govern the solar cell efficiency. The formation of black silicon in the trampoline mode is environmentally friendly at all production stages.

Processes at dislocation sites are frequently predominant mechanisms of surface evaporation or growth and thus determine resulting surface morphologies. Dislocation-induced evaporation patterns are also a convenient object for observation of dynamics of step motion on crystal surfaces, as such patterns have “fixed” origins, being pinned at the point of dislocation emergence. In the present work, observations of evaporation spirals formed on ﹛111﹜ and ﹛001﹜ surfaces of MgAl2O4 spinel are reported.2x2x1 mm samples of single-crystal MgAl2O4 spinel of ﹛111﹜ and ﹛001﹜ orientation were annealed in a spinel crucible in vacuum (10-4—10-5 Torr) in a Centorr™ furnace at 1800°C for 8 hours. SPM images were collected in air in contact mode on a Nanoscope III (Digital Instruments, Santa Barbara, CA), using Si3N4 cantilevers (Ultralevers, Park Inst., Sunnyvale, CA) with a nominal spring constant of 0.12 N/m. Selected sample surfaces were examined for impurities by energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS).

Full textAbstract:
To effectively manage urban water supply networks, utility companies providing water supply and drainage (hereinafter referred to as KP "Vodokanal") need to solve the following problems: - use of topographic maps of scales 1:500, 1:1000, 1:2000, which include both ground-based buildings , as well as adjacent underground communications - water supply and sewerage, electrical networks, gas supply networks, heat supply, communications, etc.; - hydraulic calculations of the water supply network to determine the condition, analysis and optimization of the network structure; - prompt elimination of emergency situations and re-sumption of the network after the emergency is eliminated; - control and management of drinking water quality; - availability of pressure, flow and piezometer monitoring devices; - automated control of pumping stations; - saving energy resources; – network inventory. A comprehensive solution to these problems is provided by a geoinformation automated water supply network management system. Automated network management is carried out using geoinformation technologies, mathematical and geoinformation models of the water supply network. The work proposes a mathematical model of the topological structure of the water supply network, defines geospatial data bases about network objects and the interrelation-ships of these objects, taking into account the topological structure of the network to provide geoinformation and mathematical modeling of the hydraulic state of the water supply net-work, solving problems of emergency processing, monitoring the quality of drinking water, and optimizing the network, energy saving. To construct a digital model of the branched-ring structure of a topological graph, digital vector topographic maps are used as follows: - based on the results of geodetic surveys, water supply network facilities are marked on the topog-raphic map with symbols; - analysis of information-graphic diagrams of well details indicates the presence of pressure/flow regulators and hydrants. If there are regulators, their symbols are applied to the polyline of the water supply section at the symbol of the well at the point where the water pipe is inserted into the well, their diameters and the percentage of opening are indicated; - if there is a hydrant, the symbol for a well without a hydrant is replaced with the symbol for a well with a hydrant; - for all objects of the water supply network, the values of technical and graphic parameters are determined; - the orientation of the graph is deter-mined - the direction of water flow; – a matrix of incidents of vertices and contours is formed.

The coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) pandemic represents a worldwide emergency, which may have harmful consequences on people’s mental health. Parallel to research focused on risk factors, it could be useful to investigate the factors that help to cope with such crises at an emotional level. Therefore, this study aimed to strengthen the role of variables that protect from subjective distress during the COVID-19 pandemic, explore the pathways between satisfaction with life and perceived stress, and consider the role of coping strategies and defense mechanisms in this relationship. A sample of 1102 Italian participants who were experiencing the COVID-19 lockdown measures (Mage = 34.91, SD = 11.91) completed an online survey in which the Ten Item Perceived Stress Scale, Satisfaction with Life Scale, Coping Orientation to Problems Experienced Inventory and Forty-Item Defense Style Questionnaire were included. The data were analyzed using Pearson’s r correlations and moderation analysis. A chained-mediation model showed that the relationship between life satisfaction and perceived stress is partially mediated by approach coping, positive attitude and mature defenses. This study contributes toward gaining a better understanding of a protective pathway for mental health outcomes during the COVID-19 pandemic. The findings could be useful from both a preventive and an intervention perspective.

The article describes the stages of formation and the main reasons for the transformation of the current art institutional system. Its characteristics, conventional to Europe at the end of the 18th century, became common to most countries by the second half of the 19th century. Globalization processes that accompany the entire history of the previous century are the key factor of the rapid changes in society, including the art sphere. The role of global economic changes with the orientation on the society of consumption, on the growing importance of art market, commercialization of culture in general, emergence of new technologies and changes in attitudes to contemporary art in all its manifestations were observed. The reasons for shifting the emphasis and rethinking the role of artist, curator and spectator in the modern mode of existence of art institutions were analyzed. The conditions for updating existing and new forms of art representation, as well as expanding the concept of an artwork and the difference in understanding its value in historical and commercial terms that do not always coincide, were described.

Full textAbstract:
Visual practices (the dominance of sight through appealing to it the signifier order of the the carrier, but not the complete absence of other sensory orientations) were mediatized, that was, they formed mass audiences (both in participants numbers and the most dense form of integration into society as a whole). This was not possible without cultural technologies covering the everyday level of interaction between people and things, institutes as well as culture became ordinary. Another attribute of media functioning was mass attractiveness (pleasure of the media (e.g. text), not of the artistic work), i.e. realization as a form of "meaning culture" (H. Gumbrecht's term, i.e. beyond the motivation of lack or coercion). The attractiveness of visual media is one of forms of the image practices (G. Boehm 's term, but not of the artistic image and not of the picture contemplation). Thus, mediatization became possible in the process of culture industrialization (i.e. industrial production makes possible both surplus and excess), in particular as the form of "classic culture industry" (S. Lash). It was formed against the background of penetration of inventions of the second industrial revolution into communication technologies. On the other hand, the media in the "The long nineteenth century" (E. Hobsbawm) are predominantly visual because the dominant forms of sensory orientation are based on technologies and cultural products whose signifiers order appealed to the eye (press, photography, silent cinema). Therefore, the way of signification of modernism (blurring the connection with the referent by the play intensifying of the signifier and the signified) was carried out mainly in the logic of mediatization of visual practices through both industrial replication of signifiers and diversification of the orders of the latter (the premise of signifieds multiplicity). A derivative of industrialization and mediatization (de-differentiation with technical carriers, mass audience and attractiveness of the cultural product for it, its ordinary) of culture was the requirement of its newsworthiness (endless updating of media content as a necessary component of the signifiers diversity, a of the dominance rate of the meaning culture). Other forms of mediatization (museums, cafes, cabarets, concerts, music production, etc.) are derived from hybridization with visual media (representation in the press and photographs, film news is an indispensable element of commercial success), as well as spectacularity as a necessary parameter of any media. Mediatization and visualization as a factor in the modernism mod and the classic culture industry caused a powerful transformation of the humanities, in particular the emergence of the fields of cultural history (the reception of the rewriting of the past by the present) and the phenomenology of perception (the rehabilitation of the integrity of sensory orientations beyond their reduction to sight). Mediatization of visual practices in the logic of the formation of the classic culture industry contained the following elements of implementation: mechanization of production and reproduction of cultural products, accordingly, its reduction in price and the possibility of being commercialized, mass consumption, and, consequently, production, of a mass audience. The signification mod of modernism includes "the desacralization of the image of the Author" (scriptwriter, not creator; collective, not person, individual) and the disappearance of the aura of the artistic work (the order of signifiers becomes derived from technical parameters, and therefore, the media become actors of cultural production).
