The monograph presents a new perspective on the problem of studying the mentality of generations in situations of uncertainty in modern life. The mentality of generations was considered in science from the classical, traditionalist positions as a special mentality, the worldview of large groups. Changing fluid modernity sets a new methodology for studying complex objects, allowing a different approach to the phenomenon of mentality as a construct created by scientists under the influence of the dominant forms of discourse in society. The construction paradigm gave us the opportunity to present the concept of the mentality of generations from different perspectives, when there is no established framework, and the mentality is not the precise form set by each new generation in society. Generations themselves as symbolic research entities reveal moving boundaries and diverse types and types. The studies analyzed in the monograph reflected the diversity of processes occurring at the generation boundaries in their interaction. The paper presents our studies of the mentality of generations in recent years.

Over the last 5 years, there has been a surge of interest and activity among large groups of practitioners and scientists in industrial and organizational (I-O) psychology, who have joined together with a broad range of agencies and organizations, in small to very large collaborative teams, to examine some of the grand challenges and problems facing our field. For example, a consortium of university professors and their counterparts in five Fortune 100 firms, two global human resources (HR) consultancies, and NASA have been working together to examine the practical and scientific challenges in determining how to optimize the selection and on-boarding of a new generation of workers charged with building the first colony on Mars. One I-O practitioner involved with this initiative said, “Our project represents one of the most seamless and productive integration efforts involving the practice and scientific community, perhaps in the history of our profession.”

Bharat stage VI emission norms are the sixth stage for vehicular emissions in India. The BS-VI emission norms are much needed for a country such as India to keep the pollution in check. BS-VI norms are stricter and more restrictive in terms of BS-IV norms allowing for cleaner air and also less pollution in the process. The new BSVI emission norms would require both the automobile sectors as well as oil companies to make advancements and changes to their respective products. For the best results and for the better performance of the car the BSVI based engines will have to run on BSVI fuel. The new generation modern engines which are running on low-quality fuels will emit more toxic gases compared to that generated by the BSIV engines. The modern age engine blueprints usually require low Sulphur content to maintain a strong performance. This research aims at comprehending information on a new perspective of understanding the concept and how helpful it will be in understanding the shift from BHARAT STAGE IV TO VI for various stakeholders. Followed by strategies adopted by top five Indian based car manufactures

Literary Legacy

Being a polysemantic phenomenon, the literature is in a systematic process of constructive transformations of previous experience, based on the transit of centuries-old traditions, on the functioning of TTP (theory of traditional plots). The purpose of our work is to analyze the general problems of reception, transformation and new generation of test sequels by the writers by juxtaposition of Gogol’s and Bulgakov’s novels. These methodologies provided a new perspective on the reception and functionality of classic designs. The use of the receptive platform, the theory of TТР, the theory of intertextuality, narratology, etc., have provided the basis for new, unexplored, scientific findings. The well-known traditional motives, plots, characters occupy their niche in the theory of transitivity, without losing relevance due to the endless dialogue «author – recipient». This cultural transit has its regularities, which are engraved in the receptive segment of the science of literature, beginning with the problem of understanding the text, which goes back to deciphering the exegesis. Bulgakov, as a classic writer, formed in a time of crisis and shaky space, not only had to inherit the tradition, but also zealously protect it from the unmotivated literary blasphemy of radically new times. It is in his creative attitude to classical material and his alterations that he is a striking representative of the «caste of the guardians of tradition». His latest novel, incorporating a tremendous literary legacy – from legends to classical material – undoubtedly gives us the right to identify this main Bulgakov text as a meta-romance. The functionality of classical plots and their reminiscences at the reception of the writer appeal to the question of intertextuality. In the context of TCT theory, we examined M. Gogol’s influence on M. Bulgakov’s work. The update of the Gogol text, made possible by numerous microstructural components. In addition, we drew attention to the theatrical interpretations of M. Gogol, which veiled the issue of actualization of classical material. In the feuilleton «Chichikov Adventures», the writer contaminated M. Gogol’s most colorful characters using the past ridiculed the realities of the day.

This paper demonstrates that the ORR activity of PtML electrocatalysts can be further improved by the modification of surface and subsurface of the core materials. The removal of surface low-coordination sites, generation (via addition or segregation) of an interlayer between PtML and the core, or the introduction of a second metal component to the subsurface layer of the core can further improve the ORR activity and/or stability of PtML electrocatalysts. These modifications generate the alternation of the interactions between the substrate and the PtML, involving the changes on both electronic (ligand) and geometric (strain) properties of the substrates. The improvements resulted from the application of these approaches provide a new perspective to designing of the new generation PtML electrocatalysts.

Concepts such as present-day mentality, human activities, technology, social and economic environments and organisational climate have had to undergo constant change following Industrial Revolutions. These changes in the management world have created a new value in production and service sectors. Supported by technology and device s that autonomously communicate with each other, these chains have ensured more modernized production processes. As the most recent trend, Industry 4.0 provides appropriate systems, physical attributes and diverse technologies that can cater for the future needs of economies by means of its initiation into business life with the motto of technological change and restructuring. The present study aim stories awareness of the concept of the Physical Internet, which is believed to provide new solutions to the field of logistics, and is an open global logistic system that has re defined existing supply chain structures, as well as current business and value creating models. This concept provides privileges in terms of transporting abstract and concrete products of enter prises via internet all over the world, as well as storing and supplying them. Consequently, the aim of the present study includes theoretically analysing the concept of the Physical Internet, which is one of the technological solutions provided by Industry 4.0, by means of literature review, which is defined as second-hand data, along with developing a different view point on enterprises’ vision and knowledge, and ensuring that enterprises do not miss the opportunity to restructure themselves. For an enterprise to be powerful, it is required to seize on opportunities and employ them in internal dynamics. Hence, if enterprises aspire to create value chains in the in activities, they should primarily seize on opportunities with the help of Industry 4.0, which is considered to be the future industrial revolution, adapt them to their own structures, and, in turn, be new generation enterprises by raising awareness. Concisely, the aim of the study is to bring a new perspective on logistic activities with the concept of the Physical Internet, ensure there vision of the current situation, and offer a solution to society-business-technology paradigm.

The purpose of this study is to examine the school administrators and Generation Z’s perspectives towards each other. The conflict between school administrators and the emerging generation has always been a hot-debate research topic, and it is undeniable that each generation with new defining characteristics make this subject to be worthwhile to re-consider and re-discuss. For this research, from various schools in Istanbul, Kadikoy province, 15 different school administrators and 20 different students of Z generation which were born 2000 and after were volunteered to participate to the research group. This study employed phenomenology pattern and semi- structured negotiation for data collection, and the analysis of the data has been done by using NVIVO 10 program. The study revealed that there are numerous factors that affect the school administrator’s lives: new demands and challenges emerging with new generation, the adaptation problem to the modern instructional technologies and computer-aided teaching system, the role ambiguity, parent’s approach and outside relations influence quality and school management adversely. On the other hand, the analysis of Generation Z student’s perspective brings up a new perspective to the issue of generation gap. From their perspective, the school administrators fail to act in accordance with the changing time and its demands. Most important of all, the generation gap causes the problem of communication, empathy and identification, and this has a decisive, particularly negative influence on their perspective of school life and school administrators. In this study, expectations, responses and critical insights are examined from the lenses of school administrators and students in a way to provide recommendations that could be remedy for the concerns of the school administrators and Generation Z students not only in theory but also in practice.
