Based upon the analysis of E. Fromm’s philosophical ideas the problem of man’s choice of the system of universal orientation is considered in interrelation with the individual development of the subject. The article shows the principal impossibility of personal growth with no regard to the ontological imperative foundations of human existence.In the work the concepts of “religiosity” and “faith” are being distinguished and deconstructed. For this purpose, the concept of “faith” is taken out of the traditionally religious context and is shown as the subject’s inner orientation modus in relation to the overall integrity. Systems of orientation differ in the scale and capability of realization of human creativity in relation to the surrounding world and oneself. The choice of system depends on the personal maturity and the individual’s readiness to perceive yet implicit levels of being. Philosophical faith thus provides an opportunity to reveal the hidden, implicative orders of existence, and the human spirit is viewed upon as an active beginning to fulfill these new ontological dimensions into life.Conclusions are made about the correlation of human inner growth with the number of dimensions of being that can be embraced, processed and integrated. Switching to another center of orientation becomes possible only if profound changes take place in the whole person. This kind of “personal growth” requires not only understanding, but also inner strength. In this case, a higher and more productive form of understanding and orientation can give liberation from its lower form.

Increasing popularity of individualised electricity generation from wind by prosumers creates a strong demand for profitable and highly efficient small wind turbines. This paper investigates the influence of rotor blade solidity parameter on device efficiency in hope of determining its optimal value as a part of the development process of the GUST small wind turbine. The study involved experimental analysis in the wind tunnel and numerical simulations performed in QBlade software. Different solidities of the rotor were achieved by alteration of (1) number of blades and (2) chord distribution along the blade span. The increase of rotor solidity resulted in augmentation of the aerodynamic efficiency in both approaches. The elongation of the chord by 33% in a 3-bladed rotor resulted in a bigger power coefficient increment than addition of a 4th blade with original chord distribution. Even though the solidity was the same, the 3-bladed rotor performed better, possibly due to lower form drag. The results emphasize the importance of the rotor solidity optimization during the small wind turbine rotor development and may significantly influence overall power output.

The purpose of this action research was to enhance students’ abilities in expanding and simplifying algebraic expressions. There were 26 students from 3 Anggerik (9th Grade) SMK SANZAC involved in this action research. Based on the analysis of their marks from the previous test and mid-year examination, they were unable to solve algebraic expressions, even though they had learnt them since Form 1(7th Grade). However, expanding and simplifying algebraic expressions are fundamental parts of solving mathematics problems, with approximately 46% of lower form mathematic topics requiring these skills. Hence, “The Paddy Field” method was introduced to help students to expand and simplify algebraic expressions. Post test results showed a significant improvement in students’ abilities to expand and simplify algebraic expressions.

In this study, a sliding window system is revisited and evaluated interval-valued reliability in case of upper and lower form with the help of universal generating function technique and using an algorithm, how to compute the reliability of sliding window system. Computation of probability by interval-valued is most uses but universal generating function method given improved results within it. An example is also taken at the end to demonstrate the system.

Free-running spontaneous alternation refers to the animal’s tendency to prefer the least recently visited locations in successive spatial choices, which is attributed to the animals’ choice between stimuli based on prior experience. Turn alternation, which is observed in directional choices preceded by a forced turn in one direction, also reflects the animals’ tendency to alternate between directional choices but this tendency has been assumed to rely on other cues (e.g., proprioceptive cues) derived from the prior responses (e.g., forced turn in one direction). Based on previous studies, the turn alternation appears to rely on more primitive (lower-form) information features and to be a more frequently observed empirical phenomenon than the spontaneous alternation. We investigated these two behavioral alternation tendencies in Artemia sp. Experiment 1 tested the continuous spontaneous alternation (cSAB) performance of Artemia sp. in two different mazes: t-maze (three options) and plus maze (four options). Experiment 2 tested the turn alternation performance of Artemia sp. counter-balancing the direction of initial forced-turn between subjects. Our results showed that Artemia sp. had nearly chance level spontaneous alternation performance in the t-maze and plus maze whereas a higher than chance level turn alternation performance. These results support the ubiquity of turn alternation tendency across species and point at the lack of spontaneous alternation in Artemia sp.
