The paper discusses the results and policy implications for stock brokerage firms that hope to implement advanced technologies.

Modern legal problems of restoration of lands damaged as a result of military operations

Military actions have had a global negative impact on the land and soil of Ukraine as a whole, causing widespread contamination and degradation. Daily airstrikes and shelling leave deep craters, heavy metals from shells and military equipment penetrate the soil and groundwater, soil permeability decreases, oxygen is displaced, biochemical and microbiological processes are disrupted, vast areas are scorched by fires, and the risk of toxic waste emissions from industrial enterprises in temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine increases. Additionally, there is massive flooding of closed and war-damaged mines. Furthermore, Ukraine is the most mined country in the world. Unfortunately, this list is not exhaustive. The restoration of Ukrainian land and soil is one of the priority tasks in the post-war period, as it affects not only the ecological safety of the state but also its economic stability and development. Given the scale of the problems facing Ukraine, a comprehensive approach is needed, including legal, technological, and organizational support for land restoration. Important stages in this process are the assessment of the degree of damage, the development of an effective methodology for damage compensation, the implementation of modern technologies, the development and implementation of new regulations governing land restoration procedures, and the establishment of clear standards for soil quality. Ukraine also needs to take into account the experience of other countries in land restoration after military conflicts, particularly those that have applied innovative approaches and modern technologies for soil rehabilitation. This will help implement the best practices and restoration methods, ensuring effective and rapid land recovery. International cooperation and support will play a crucial role in this process, as the issue of restoring land and soil damaged by war is not only a domestic matter for Ukraine but also a challenge for the entire global community. Successful examples of land restoration in other countries demonstrate Ukraine’s readiness and ability to cope with the consequences of war and ensure sustainable development in the future, which is a priority task on which Ukraine’s future depends. Considering environmental, economic, and social aspects in the restoration process will allow not only to restore soil fertility but also to create conditions for sustainable development and prosperity of the country.

Measurement of Ambient Millimeter Wave Exposure Levels around Small Base Stations

Abstract This study investigated the implementation and impact of fifth-generation (5G) wireless millimeter wave (mmW) technology. 5G offers significant advancements over previous generations and supports additional frequency bands, including mmW, to enhance mobile broadband with ultra-reliable, low-latency communications, supporting a high volume of diverse communications. This technology is expected to enable billions of new connections in the Internet of Things (IoT), fostering innovations in various sectors including healthcare, manufacturing, and education. This research contributes to the understanding and safe implementation of this transformative technology. Global adoption of 5G is rapidly increasing, with over 1.5 billion subscriptions as of 2024, projected to reach 58% of all wireless subscriptions by 2029. Despite its benefits, 5G mmW installations have raised concerns regarding exposure to electromagnetic fields. This study was conducted using a dual-polarized horn antenna and relatively inexpensive spectrum analyzers to measure typical ambient mmW radiofrequency field power densities near operational radio base stations (RBS) in urban and suburban environments. The measurements were taken at various times of the day and in different weather conditions to ensure a comprehensive understanding of the ambient mmW exposure. The study's results provide reassuring evidence that the ambient mmW exposure from RBSs is significantly lower than the safety limits set by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and other international standards. The exposure levels ranged from 0.0003% to 0.0082% of the public maximum permissible exposure (MPE), with the highest levels being more than 25,000 times lower than the allowed continuous public exposure. This study concludes that typical mmW exposure from 5G RBSs is minimal and substantially below established safety limits.

Comparative analysis of the efficiency of catalytic methane pyrolysis technology for hydrogen production based on DEA method

This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of the efficiency of methane pyrolysis technologies and various catalysts using the DEA method. The study is based on an extensive set of experimental data obtained under laboratory conditions. Application of DEA method allowed to identify key factors affecting the pyrolysis process performance, including costs, process parameters and catalyst properties. Particular attention is paid to the role of catalysts in the methane pyrolysis process. Highly efficient catalysts show significant increases in reaction rate and decreases in energy costs. The DEA method allowed the identification of key factors affecting process efficiency, including the choice of catalyst carrier, temperature conditions and composition of active components. The analysis revealed that catalyst stability and its ability to maintain high activity over the reaction time were particularly important for industrial applications. The results of the analysis allowed us to evaluate the relative efficiency of each catalyst and identify the most optimal combinations of reaction conditions. It was found that catalysts with high nickel content (more than 80%) on Al₂O₃ carrier show the highest efficiency at about 750 ℃, achieving high values of methane conversion and hydrogen yield. SiO₂ based catalysts show high initial activity, but tend to deactivate or carbonize with time, which in turn markedly reduces their efficiency in long-term processes. The results highlight the importance of optimal catalyst composition and reaction conditions to improve the efficiency and economic viability of the methane pyrolysis process. The study demonstrates the potential of DEA method as a tool for comprehensive assessment and optimization of technological processes of hydrogen production and emphasizes the prospects for further development and implementation of methane pyrolysis technology in industrial hydrogen production as a component of the transition to low-carbon energy production.

Формирование гуманитарного мышления у будущих инженеров-строителей в процессе изучения общеинженерных дисциплин

In modern conditions of the need to increase the prestige of an engineer and build innovative engineering in our country, there is a great demand for a professional with humanitarian thinking. Such thinking allows solving engineering problems taking into account the value-semantic component and subjective factors. As the analysis of the existing system of training future engineers shows, the task of forming humanitarian thinking in students is not actually set, and the humanitarization of engineering education is correlated either with an increase in the share of humanitarian disciplines, or with forms of the educational process that involve training some universal skills. The problem of the research is to identify, from the standpoint of the methodology of the humanitarian-anthropological and metacognitive approaches, the features of the formation of humanitarian thinking in future civil engineers. In the context of this methodology and based on the analysis of scientific literature devoted to the phenomena of humanitarianism, humanitarian knowledge, thinking and humanitarian thinking, the concepts of "humanitarian thinking" and "humanitarian engineering thinking" are clarified. The novelty of the study is that the experience of humanitarian thinking is revealed in conjunction with the metacognition of the individual and is substantiated as a humanitarian component of the content of engineering education. The conditions for the formation of humanitarian thinking in future civil engineers in the process of studying general engineering disciplines are identified. Such conditions are associated with: the inclusion of dialogic situations in the educational process, the basis of which are metacognitive cues; metaphorization of the material of academic subjects in the course of cognitive activity; the implementation of textual-dialogical technology in classes as the leading pedagogical means of forming the quality under study and a way of actualizing the position of the subject of thinking in students. The article presents the data of a diagnostic survey devoted to identifying the level of humanitarian thinking in 185 students of different courses of the engineering and technology faculty of Kalmyk State University. The results of a formative experiment are presented, which confirmed the provisions of the research hypothesis concerning the change in the qualitative attitude to the profession among students in connection with the experience of humanitarian thinking and the dependence of the level of such thinking on the skills of metacognitive cognition.

Enhance registration precision of transmission breast images utilizing improved Levenberg-Marquardt optimization algorithm with normalized cross-correlation.

Transmission imaging may become a possible advance for breast cancer screening with non-invasive, cost-effective, and radiation-free approaches for early detection. Frame accumulation can successfully eliminate the issue of low SNR, low grayscale and poor quality in transmission image. However, frame accumulation accuracy can be diminished because of inherent human body instability during image acquisition and the light absorption characteristics of breast tissue, resulting in distorted and misplaced image sequences. Therefore, improved Levenberg-Marquardt optimization algorithm with normalized cross-correlation is used as an innovative approach to rectify image sequences before frame accumulation processing. Two separate sets of data, showing breast images with and without markers, were collected using a halogen bulb and a mobile phone camera to validate the suggested method. The approach includes coarse registration utilizing normalized cross-correlation for initial value estimation, followed by fine registration using Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm. The results demonstrate a notable improvement in both accuracy of registration and frame accumulation quality. Specifically, the registration speed showed a remarkable increase, being 8.7 times faster, especially prominent in images that included markers. These images displayed normalized cross-correlation values reaching up to 0.99. The research emphasizes the future potential of the suggested method in overcoming the image quality challenges associated with breast transmission imaging, providing a significant milestone toward more accurate and efficient early breast cancer screening methods. Moreover, transmission imaging systems for the breast have been developed to verify the safety and effectiveness of the implemented technology.

Editorial: “Are Technology Acceptance Models still fit for purpose?”

Technology acceptance research has been an important and fruitful research domain since the late 1980s. At the forefront has been the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and related models such as UTAUT. These models aim to explain and predict adoption of technology, so that adoption can be improved and decisions can be made regarding technology implementation. The predictor variables of adoption are Behavioural Intention (BI) and Actual Use (USE). The TAM defines two key determinants of BI, Perceived Ease of Use (PEOU, sometimes also abbreviated as PEU) and Perceived Usefulness (PU). Technology Acceptance Model based research has been applied to many different technologies, in different fields of use, in different cultural contexts and at different scales, globally and whilst being robust, the approach does have limitations. These call into question, to greater and lesser degrees, the validity of the findings and/or the usefulness of the model under certain contexts. This issue examines the debates surrounding these limitations under the umbrella question of “TAMs are they still fit for purpose?” The commentary article and book reviewed directly address these debates and the articles demonstrate how researchers are responding to the debates, exploring them in different contexts, at different scales and for different technologies. The editorial concludes by proposing future directions for the field to continue its evolution and remain as an effective and important tool in the understanding technology adoption in an age of frequent and rapid technological innovation in education.

Wearable Technology in Mobility and Falls Health Care: Finding Consensus on Their Clinical Utility and Identifying a Roadmap to Actual Use.

Despite the promise wearable technology offers through detailed insight into mobility and fall risk, timely identification of high risk, assessment of risk severity, evaluation of clinical interventions, and potential to redefine the assessment of behaviours which influence health, they are not routinely used in clinical practice. Establish consensus on how wearable technology can be applied to support clinical care for people aged 50 and over experiencing changes to mobility and/or who are at increased risk of falling. A Delphi study was conducted among 17 hospital-based health professionals. Over three rounds, experts were asked about fall prevention, mobility assessment, the potential role of wearable sensors, and clinical considerations for implementing wearable technology into practice. Consensus was defined as 75% agreement. Data were analysed using qualitative and quantitative methods. Experts found that wearable technology has short and long-term clinical utility, data should be shared with general practitioners to improve long-term health outcomes, and devices would need to fit all individuals with a preference for wrist or pendant-worn locations. Technological literacy was not a perceived barrier. However, cost and data accuracy were important for successful implementation. This study provides a group consensus statement and guidance on the clinical implementation of wearable technology to support care for people aged 50 and over experiencing changes to mobility and/or who are at increased risk of falling. Health professionals are receptive to using wearable technologies to advance fall risk and mobility assessment and believe wearable technology has a role in clinical practice.
