An analysis of the qualitative and quantitative state of mobile repair equipment, which are armed with repair units (military units), shows that the existing park consists mainly of samples that were designed in the 70's. The main disadvantage of these is the physical and moral aging and the lack of compliance with the requirements for weapons renewal systems and military equipment. Accordingly, there are drawbacks and inconsistencies between the need for repair work and the production capabilities of rolling stock. Therefore, the article proposes a technique for substantiating the tactical and technical requirements for mobile weapons repair and military equipment operating at different levels of the hierarchy. All indicators considered in this methodology have their own specifics in the development of different types of equipment. However, they can be expressed by such groups of requirements as tactical, technical, operational, production and economic. The application of this technique will provide an opportunity to obtain technical outlines of mobile repair equipment for battalion, brigade, operational, strategic levels. As base platforms for mobile repair tools, it is proposed to create base platforms built on a modular basis. These base platforms must allow for the placement of the control module, the power unit, the transmission module, the chassis module, in addition, the platform base must contain cells for mounting those modules to allow for the rapid replacement of damaged modules, the possibility of mounting container modules with process equipment. For placement of technological equipment it is proposed to use bodies built on a modular principle. Assembly of such bodies with modules of technological equipment and their subsequent use will be possible depending on the intended purpose of the movable means of repair. In this case it will be possible to largely solve the problem of standardization and specialization of equipment.

The main impact force of ground troops  is the hard weapons and military equipment, that is why the loss of one of them is always painful for any army in the world The basic combat weapons and military equipment (high-precision samples of weapons and military equipment) are too expensive to destroy damaged vehicles or leave them on the battlefield. Realizing this, the special vehicles were created for the evacuation of this type of weapons and military equipment – armored repair and evacuation vehicle, which are designed to evacuate from the battlefield damaged and stuck tanks, infantry fighting vehicles, armored personnel carriers, self-propelled artillery system and other units of equipment, even out of the probable enemy fire. Taking into account the analysis of the development of evacuation means which are in the service of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the armed forces of the leading countries of the world, in this work the method of substantiation of tactical and technical requirements for means of evacuation of damaged weapons and military equipment is proposed. The essence of this method is to distribute the means of evacuation by mass and size, by type of mover, by the method of moving the damaged sample, by the level of application. The formation of requirements is aimed at the transition of evacuation means and basic models of weapons and military equipment to unified basic platforms of the modular type. The implementation of these platforms will make it possible to install various types of special modules of evacuation means (material-handling, load-lifting, etc.) and modules of samples of weapons and special equipment. The application of this metodology will provide an opportunity to obtain technical outlines of evacuation tools for different levels of the hierarchy, taking into account the scope of tasks assigned to them.

Analysis of wars and armed conflicts in recent years and the performance of tasks by military units (subunits) in a United Forces operation (anti-terrorist operation) confirms that the success of the troops (forces) in performing tasks will depend on the performance of the logistics system. The availability of military units with serviceable weapons and military equipment (WME) ensures the fulfillment of the mission and the advantage over the enemy. At the same time, the timeliness of providing military units (subunits) with serviceable weapons and military equipment depends on the efficiency of the logistics system, namely, on the recovery subsystem, which is its component. However, as studies have shown, there is currently insufficient sufficiency of the recovery system. All this is related to the definition of the composition of forces and means and the structure of the WME recovery system at different levels of the hierarchy. Therefore, in the article, it is considered that for the WME recovery system, the main parameter is the allowable time of WME recovery, differentiated by levels of complexity of tasks. Determination of this parameter for the basic variant of construction of WME recovery system is proposed using the average indicator of the intensity of the flow of possible volumes of tasks on the WME recovery. To determine the rational structure of WME recovery system and to calculate its main parameters the combined method of optimization of WME recovery system was used. Containing two stages: on the first - based on the requirements to the permissible terms of WME recovery system, the rational structure of the recovery system is defined, and on the second – using the method of statistical modeling, the parameters of the structure and composition of forces and means of the WME recovery system at each level of the hierarchy are defined.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to advance the understanding of factors that affect offshoring performance results. To do so, this paper focuses on the access to location-specific advantages, rather than solely on the properties of the offshoring company, its strategy or environment. Assuming that different levels of synergy may exist between particular offshoring strategic decisions (choosing offshore outsourcing or captive offshoring and the type of function) and different offshoring advantages, this work advocates that the actual fact of realization of certain offshoring advantages (getting or not getting access to them) is a more reliable predictor of offshoring success. Design/methodology/approach – A set of hypotheses derived from the extant literature is tested on the data from a quantitative survey of 1,143 Scandinavian firms. Findings – The paper demonstrates that different governance modes and types of offshored function indeed provide different levels of access to different types of location-specific offshoring advantages. This difference may help to explain the ambiguity of offshoring initiatives performance results. Research limitations/implications – Limitations of the work include using only the offshoring strategy elements and only their limited variety as factors potentially influencing access to offshoring advantages. Also, the findings are limited to Scandinavian companies. Originality/value – The paper introduces a new concept of access, which can help to more reliably predict performance outcomes of offshoring initiatives. Recommendations are also provided to practitioners dealing with offshoring initiatives.

Children's concepts about illness causality and bodily functioning change in a predictable way with advancing age. Differences in the understanding of these concepts in healthy children vs children with a chronic illness have not been clearly delineated. This study included 49 children with a seizure disorder, 47 children with an orthopaedic condition, and 96 healthy children, all with normal intelligence and ranging in age from 5 to 16 years. It demonstrates systematic differences in children's general reasoning skills and in their understanding of concepts about illness causality and bodily functioning, as a function of their age and experience of illness. At all ages, children who had a condition with orthopaedic involvement reported less sophisticated general reasoning and concepts about illness than did healthy children; children with a seizure disorder reported similar general reasoning skills to those of healthy children, but considerably less sophisticated concepts about illness. children's concepts about body functioning did not differ as a function of the presence of a chronic illness. When their different levels of general cognitive reasoning were statistically controlled, children with a chronic illness had somewhat more sophisticated concepts about bodily functioning than did healthy children. Differences in conceptual development among children with different types of illnesses lead to interesting speculations with regard to the effects of particular illness characteristics on children's cognitive development.

According to the data-frame theory, sensemaking is a macrocognitive process in which people try to make sense of or explain their observations by processing a number of explanatory structures called frames until the observations and frames become congruent. During the sensemaking process, the parietal cortex has been implicated in various cognitive tasks for the functions related to spatial and temporal information processing, mathematical thinking, and spatial attention. In particular, the parietal cortex plays important roles by extracting multiple representations of magnitudes at the early stages of perceptual analysis. By a series of neural network simulations, we demonstrate that the dissociation of different types of spatial information can start early with a rather similar structure (i.e., sensitivity on a common metric), but accurate representations require specific goal-directed top-down controls due to the interference in selective attention. Our results suggest that the roles of the parietal cortex rely on the hierarchical organization of multiple spatial representations and their interactions. The dissociation and interference between different types of spatial information are essentially the result of the competition at different levels of abstraction.

AbstractGiven the visibility and obvious importance of judicial power in the age of the Charter, it is important to develop the conceptual vocabulary for desribing and assessing this power. One such concept that has been applied to the study of appeal courts in the United States and Great Britain is “party capability”, a theory which suggests that different types of litigant will enjoy different levels of success as both appellant and respondent. Using a data base derived from the reported decisions of the provincial courts of appeal for the second and seventh year of each decade since the 1920s, this article applies party capability theory to the performance of the highest courts of the ten provinces; comparisons are attempted across regions and across time periods, as well as with the findings of similar studies of American and British courts.

The present work was aimed to study the effect of extracted phenolic compounds from Salicornia air part by several solvents as natural antioxidants on preservation of corn oil comparing with synthetic antioxidant (TBA) on the oil stability against oxidative rancidity during storage at 70 °C for 5 days. The results indicate that the best solvent for extracting polyphenolic compounds was methanol followed by ethanol, chloroform and water. HPLC analysis for the total polyphenols extracted from the air part of salicornia fruticosa indicated to presence high percentages of Pyrogallol, Ellagic, B-OH Benzoic and Catechin. The extracted phenolic acids were tested against corn oil keeping quality. Results show that peroxide value and TBA values of corn oil that treated by different types of extracts at different levels were lower than control. Keywords: Salicornia fruticosa; DPPH; Corn oil; Phenolic extract. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bjsir.v49i1.18856 Bangladesh J. Sci. Ind. Res. 49(1), 53-58, 2014

At the beginning of the 2020s, the SZTE Klebelsberg Library will need to store the digitised museum documents and manuscript legacies that have been and are still being generated in a repository. The content was placed in the library’s thematic EPrints software-based repository Miscellanea. Different types of documents required different solutions, and their metadata required the development of a different metadata form. A solution was needed to create a structured structure in the repository to house the digital versions of the paper documents in the collection and the content transferred for digital preservation. The task was to define the different levels of access, the ongoing cleaning of the data and the establishment of the catalogue-repository link. The report presents possible solutions to these problems.

The paper presents different types of insensitive munition used in military equipment, especially in western countries. Tests of this munition, their parameters, e.g. fast and slow heating, bullet, fragment and shaped charge jet impact and sympathetic reaction are described. The characteristics of shape-memory materials like alloys and polymers are presented. Behaviour of shape-memory alloy is explained by example of TiNi al-loys during mechanical or thermal loading, and martensitic transformation into austen-ite during unloading. Material parameters of the TiNi alloys, their testing and mathematical equations are shown. Venting systems used in the explosive reactive armour cassettes are presented. Different examples of materials, including shape-memory materials in munition, are demonstrated.

A brief history of the development of high-speed passenger traffic in the countries of the world is shown, it is shown that the length of high-speed highways (SMM) in the world is 44 thousand km. Despite the fact that Ukraine is not included in the list of 28 countries with the SMM, a two-system electric train ECR1 "Tarpan" was created on the basis of the PUBLIC JOINT STOCK COMPANY "KRYUKOVSKY RAILWAY CAR BUILDING WORKS" (PJSC "KVBZ") for the speed of movement of more than 200 km / h. A description of the electric train and the peculiarities of the brake system are given. It is shown that the brake system corresponds to world counterparts for high-speed trains about what evidence test results, which, due to the lack of ATS, were carried out for a speed of 160 km / h. The results of the settlement research, using the mathematical model and the results of the driving brake tests, showed that the braking pathway of the electric train at a speed of 200 km / h is 1539 m, and at a speed of 300 km / h - 3172 m. The obtained brake path values comply with the technical requirements of the European Union TSI . Studies confirm that Ukraine has high-speed rolling stock for speeds up to 300 km / h. Key words: high-speed rolling stock, electric train, brake system, brake path, speed
