Trains running on rails are the integral part of the transport system and such as, they can be classified as elements of the transportation support system in the military logistics. The volume of the military transport-movement tasks is constantly increasing, also due to allied obligations. Because of the adequate transport capacity of the rail-sector, as well as its more beneficial environmental characteristic, it is worth examining how the geographical conditions enable the sub-sector to complete the increasing military transportation and transportation support tasks. My article deals with this analysis through military, social and physical geographic approaches.

The current stage of reforming the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AF) confirms that the crisis in the country's economy has significantly affected the system of logistics of troops, which ensures its main task – to maintain the combat readiness of military units and ensure their livelihood in peacetime. The war in the east of the country and the existing state of providing troops showed the need to improve the organization and management of the process of logistical (technical, rear and medical) provision of training and combat use of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, which is currently in the phase of perspective changes and necessitates the development of a new concept of military information management and logistical flows, which will be implemented by a new, more efficient structure, called the "military logistics system". The purpose of the article is to determine the directions for the creation and accumulation of an optimal nomenclature of stocks of material resources in peacetime and their rational separation at the tactical, operational and strategic levels of management. The article describes the contents of the concepts of "logistics", "echelon", "stocking", "operational accounting". Important tasks of modern conditions of process of creation and management of stocks in the course of reforming of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are systematized; variants of the offered models of inventory management are outlined. The goal is achieved through theoretical and experimental research on volume optimization and material separation at all levels of management, which is one of the key problems of military logistics.

What can war tell us about empire? Climate of Conquest is built around this question. Pratyay Nath eschews the conventional way of writing about warfare primarily in terms of battles and technologies. Instead, he unravels the deep connections that Mughal war-making shared with the broader dynamics of society, culture, and politics. In the process, he offers a new analysis of the Mughal empire from the vantage point of war. Climate of Conquest closely studies the dynamics of the military campaigns that helped the Mughals conquer North India and project their power beyond it. In the first part, Nath argues that these campaigns unfolded in constant negotiation with the diverse natural environment of South Asia. The empire sought to discipline the environment and harness its resources to satisfy its own military needs. At the same time, environmental factors like climate, terrain, and ecology profoundly influenced Mughal military tactics, strategy, and deployment of technology. In the second part, Nath makes three main points. Firstly, he argues that Mughal military success owed a lot to the efficient management of military logistics and the labour of an enormous non-elite, non-combatant workforce. Secondly, he explores the making of imperial frontiers and highlights the roles of forts, routes, and local alliances in the process. Finally, he maps the cultural climate of war at the Mughal court and discusses how the empire legitimized war and conquest. In the process, what emerges is a fresh interpretation of Mughal empire-building as a highly adaptive, flexible, and accommodative process.

Pune has witnessed enormous industrial growth, rapid urbanization in the recent past and has put the city's travel infrastructure to stress. Being a densely populated area, Pune's traffic needs cannot be met by road-based transportation systems and additional flyovers. Considering this, the Pune Metro project a strong public transport system partly elevated, and partly underground Line 1 and the completely elevated Line 2 has been discussed and undertaken by Maha Metro Rail Corporation. With the rise in demand, the responsibility for a safe and efficient public transport system also increases hence proper planning, designing, and execution play a vital role. The underground tunnel stretch of the Pune Metro Line 1 project is carried out by TBM and by segmental lining as a support system. By geotechnical parameters and FEM, RS2 software author analyses the ground behaviour and support system and conveys a basic understanding of ground behaviour and results in guidelines for designing the underground tunnel.

For almost a decade since joining NATO, the armed forces did not have an information system supporting the management of their own transport system. For military logistics, the implementation and operation of an IT system supporting the work of transport and army forces was of significant importance from the point of view of improving the efficiency of the logistics system. The progressiveness of this article is manifested in the fact that in addition to the characteristics, role and tasks of the system presented in previous studies, the author additionally carried out research, evaluated the functioning and presented directions of development of the IT system code named CONVOY. The significance of the system has even increased since NATO decided to strengthen its eastern flank in 2016. Consequently, this has resulted in an increased number of convoys on the roads that must be accompanied by competent transport and troop movement in order to be there. IT system CONVOY allows this process to be speeded up by electronic reconciliation, development and issuance of road traffic permits and monitoring them in real time.

During the last 30 years the environments faced by the business logistics manager have dramatically increased in complexity. The integration of logistics processes with organizational strategy, increasing complexities of partnership/channel relationships, and the increasingly international scope of business logistics processes are examples of these complexities. The military logistics literature addresses complex issues of integrating logistics with strategy and tactics; co‐ordinating world wide supply operations; co‐ordinating an industrial base with military needs; and managing cycles of mobilization, warfare, and demobilization. Summarizes the development of business logistics thought, reviews the military logistics literature, and develops insights from the said literature that appear relevant to business logistics thought.

The ability of water to hold solid particulate matter in suspension, together with its fluidity, make it a desirable medium for use in the transportation of solid material in slurry pipelines. However in some areas, the vast amount of water required for this type of system may not be readily available. Presented here is a discussion of the technical and economic advantages of a slurry transport system, in which foam is used as the transport medium. Also included are the results of an experimental investigation designed to determine the feasibility and transport capacity of such a system. The results of the experimental investigation indicate that the use of foam in the transport of solid particulate material is technically sound, economically attractive and environmentally acceptable.

Digenean flukes can be broadly classified into three basic groups according to their location within the host: (1) the lumen of the alimentary canal or associated organ, (2) body cavity or tissue and (3) external surfaces. We selected three species of Proterometra that represent these basic groups and tested their capacities for cutaneous transport of glucose. Facilitated diffusion is the type of transport system in the tegument of P. edneyi, which lives in the gut of its host. An activetransport system is present in P. dickermani, the tissue-dwelling species. No cutaneous system for transporting glucose is present in the ectoparasitic P. macrostoma. The known capacities for tegumental sugar transport in other digeneans are correlated with similar habitats. Such associations involving unrelated as well as closely related species suggest that the niche biology of digeneans involves evolutionary specializations of the tegument for absorbing sugar.
