AbstractWe present results from an investigation where the long-term photometry of several magnetically active RS CVn binaries is studied to see whether or not they show permanent active longitudes and the flip-flop phenomenon. We confirm that it is very common for the active regions to occur on permanent active longitudes. Many of our target stars also show clear flip-flop phenomenon, but often the data set is not long enough for reliable determination of the flip-flop period.

The research subject of the paper is the process of capital adapting. The purpose of the article is to present capital as a multifunction dissipation system, which consists of the number of interconnected subsystems that operates being under the influence of destabilizing socio-economic factors. There is still no explicit definition of economic adaptation, and capital is not regarded as a set of tangible and intangible assets. Taking into account that the current operating environment, at both the macro and micro levels, may be characterized as unsustainable, and each system strives to organize itself to achieve the main objective, it is worth considering the process of adaptation, using a synergistic approach. This requires looking at the concept of capital as a multifunctional system, firstly, identifying which economic categories are made as subsystems of capital and which of them form capital, secondly, assessing potential areas of adaptation, thirdly, and identifying where adaptation can be targeted in the first place, fourthly. Determination of priority goals is the task of rapid financial analysis, using the results of strategic analysis it is possible to determine long-term goals of adaptation. Methodology. The article uses methods of empirical knowledge aimed at structuring approaches to the concepts of capital, their selection and analysis. Based on the empirical research, theoretical studies have been carried out. It was used such methods us analysis and synthesis, deduction, abstraction and generalization. The conceptual framework is based on the theoretical developments in various scientific fields that have studied capital, the enterprise, the economic system as an economic category, the concept of adaptation, synergies in the economy, and methods of strategic and financial analysis. By examining and analysing existing approaches to the listed issues, it has become possible to propose a definition of capital adaptation as a multifunctional dissipation system. As a result of the research, it became clear that for sustainable adaptation, it is advisable to use the tools of strategic management, and for instantaneous adaptation tools to ensure the economic and financial security of the enterprise. In the process of writing this research, it became clear that it was necessary to study issues related to the characteristics of subsystems, their assessment and analysis in order to make the adaptation process more multifaceted and effective.

The article considers the means of determining gender identification of girls engaged in boxing and their impact on the training and competitive process. Purpose: to determine gender identification of qualified girls boxers. Material & Methods: the study involved qualified (participants, prize-winners, champions of local tournaments and championships of Ukraine in their age group) girls boxers 12-15 years old, who are engaged in the city children's and youth sports school. A total of 10 girls were interviewed, including 7 athletes aged 15 and 3 athletes aged 12 years, sports experience at the time of the study ranged from 3 to 5 years. Research methods used: S. Bem's method "masculinity - femininity"; Freiburg Personal Questionnaire (FPI) Masculinity Scale; analysis and generalization of literary sources; analysis of excerpts from the protocols of competitions and video viewing of semifinal, final matches of two championships of Ukraine; method of mathematical statistics. Results: it was determined that most girls (n = 9) with index values ​​(IS) in the range from -0,348 (± 0.05) to 0,580 (± 0.05) belong to the androgynous type according to the S.Bem classification. Only one athlete (n = 1) with indicators (IS) -1,276 belongs to the masculine type according to the classification of S. Bem. Determination of masculinity signs using the FPI test showed the number of points scored from 4 (± 2) to 9 out of 14 possible. Conclusions: The study proved the dominance of androgynous and masculine types in various sports in general. The ratio of gender types between individuals engaged in martial arts and boxing is revealed. The data on the dominance of the androgenic type of personality in the younger age groups of women's boxing have been supplemented. For more productive training of gender types of physical and special boxing exercises and forecasting of competitive activity, it is necessary to study individual psychological qualities of a girl-boxer. It is advisable in the subsequent stages of long-term training to conduct repeated tests of girls boxers of this research group in order to determine the progress of masculinization by age and sports experience and sports qualifications.

In our long-term engineering practice, we have found that it is often not enough to use only engineering knowledge to solve the practical problems in the engineering. Therefore, we believe that in the education of engineering students, we should not only pay attention to the teaching of engineering knowledge, but also pay attention to the application of knowledge of Humanities in the engineering, for the students. In this two-part commentary, we put forward the definition of Engineering & Humanities (E&H), which we will carry forward on the direction of research in future.

The article notes the relevance of the issues of ensuring frost resistance of structures, including road, in connection with the almost universal spread of the phenomenon of frost heaving in the territory of the Russian Federation. The question of known methods for determining the calculated characteristics of frost heaving of the soil, which is the initial characteristic of the calculation of structures for frost resistance, is considered. These methods include the standard method, the method VGU in two variants and the method ROSDORNII Institute. These methods are presented in the form of a flowchart with a detailed description of the individual blocks. The shortcomings of the normative method, which lead in some cases to unacceptable errors for engineering practice, are noted. The VGU method in the first embodiment is based only on the use of laboratory test data and plotting the intensity of frost heaving. In the second variant of the VGU method, the character of the intensity plot is taken on the basis of data from long-term field tests.

При создании норм для морских судов, попадающих в разнооб­разные гидрометеорологические условия, достоверный расчет кренящих моментов затруднителен, и задача определения мини­мально допустимых характеристик остойчи­вости (критериев) решалась путем анализа статистических данных об остойчивости судов, успешно эксплуатировавшихся или потерпевших аварию вследствие недоста­точной остойчивости. Применительно к тре­бованиям ИМО в качестве нормируемых характеристик остойчивости были приняты характеристики начальной остойчивости и диаграммы статической остойчивости. В настоящее время в ИМО ведется активная работа по созданию критериев остойчивости нового поколения, учитывающих более широкий круг явлений, опасных с точки зрения остойчивости судна, Действующие нормы Кодекса ИМО по остойчивости 2008 года их не учитывают. С учетом близости отечественных и международных методик оценки кратковременных и долговременных показателей мореходности анализируются результаты этой работы и оценивается возможность использования предлагаемых в ИМО подходов в отечественной практике нормирования море­ходности. For sea going ships operated in different hydro meteorological conditions reliable determination of heeling moments is difficult and the task of obtaining minimum allowable stability characteristics (criteria) was done by statistical stability analysis of ships successfully operated or capsized due to lack of stability. At IMO requirements intact stability was regulated by meta centric height ana stability diagram requirements. Currently, IMO is actively working on creating new generation stability criteria, which take into account a wider range of phenomena hazardous in terms of ship stability. The current standards of the IMO Stability Code 2008 do not take them into account. Considering the proximity of domestic and international methods for assessing short-term and long-term seaworthiness indices, the results of this work are analyzed and the possibility of using the approaches proposed by IMO in the domestic practice of seaworthiness rationing is evaluated.

Design Hourly Volume

In the first phases of study and design documentation of rural roads, one of the key parameters to determine in the analyses is the Design Hourly Volume (DHV). The required level of service and the feasibility of the project depend to a large extent on a properly established DHV. Essentially, the problem is to determine the value of the K-factor for a certain nth highest hour of the year. This paper points to the need for additional analysis of existing databases of long-term automatic traffic counting, from which the necessary guidance for planners and designers can be derived, enabling them to understand and apply the K-factors in a clearer and more detailed way. Using specific data examples, characteristic sections of rural roads with different functions and types (seasonal variations) of traffic demand were selected to show significant differences in the values of the K-factors for the same selected nth highest hour of the year. Several guidelines (BiH, Slovenia, Croatia, Italy, Serbia) were analysed beforehand to get a better understanding of how the K-factor or DHV is explained and used in different countries. The main objective of the article is to show that, on the basis of the existing databases of continuous automatic counting in these countries, with additional analyses presented in this paper or in a similar form, significant regularities in determining the DHV can be achieved, eliminating difficulties of application in engineering practice. As all guidelines practically recommend the use of HCM in capacity analyses, specific examples are selected to show the difference between the definition of HCM for a route with dominant recreational traffic and our route with dominant tourist traffic (recreational versus tourist).

Abstract This paper attempts to coin a stipulative definition of “emotions” to determine their functions. In this sense, “emotion” is a complex phenomenon consisting of an accurate (reliable) determination of the state of affairs in relation to the state of the subject and specific “points of adaptation”. Apart from the cognitive aspect, this phenomenon also includes behavior, physiological changes and expressions (facial expression, voice, posture), feelings, and “execution” of emotions in the nervous system. Emotions fulfill informative, calibrating, identifying, existential, and motivating functions. Emotions capture the world as either positive or negative, important or unimportant, and are used to determine and assign weightings (to set up a kind of hierarchy). They emerge automatically (involuntarily), are difficult (or hardly possible) to control and are (to some extent) influenced by culture.

The article discusses essential scientific problems within the scope of a young discipline “Information and Psychological War Linguistics” (IPW). These problems are based both on the analytical review of the scientific literature and on the authors’ observations. The following most significant problems of the IPW are defined: definition of the Information and Psychological War; classifications of its aims and objectives that, as a rule, are implicit in the war discourse; relationship between the object and targets of the IPW; hierarchy of targets; definition and systematization of criteria which might be used in order to identify the IPW texts; methodology of these texts analysis; determination of the IPW genre specifics; and classification of its speech strategies and tactics. The paper clarifies the definitions of some terms: Information and Psychological War, Information and Psychological War Linguistics, the object and the target. The following criteria for identifying IPW texts are distinguished: 1) the public character of the text as a focus on the mass addressee’s consciousness; 2) the inclusion of the text in one or another ideological discourse, characterized by its polemical nature and polarity of assessments; 3) the presence in a text of a socially significant political component related to the state power, government and / or people’s economic welfare, which are negatively represented in the IPW; 4) the prevalence in a text of a defamatory evaluative modality as well as the presence or possibility of the appearance of a protective text with a predominant apologetic modality; 5) the presence in a text of some tools specific to the IPW language: practices of speech aggression and / or speech manipulation; 6) more or less long-term repeatability of defamatory assessments in relation to the same target; 7) propaganda of a new value system contradicting the traditional one. These criteria should be taken into account in conjunction. Likewise, there is a problem of changes in the Russian language under the influence of the IPW, including those of a terminological nature
