Abstract European relations with Turkey, which began with the application of the Republic of Turkey for membership in the European Community and continued with the acquisition of candidacy status, gained a new dimension with the Copenhagen summit on December 12, 2002. Fifteen member states of the European Community have decided that Turkey can start candidacy negotiations in December 2005 if it can prove that it meets the political and economic criteria for integration with Europe, according to development reports. With the positive outcome of this development, Turkey is expected to become a member state of the European Community, and the Turkish language will be one of the most widely spoken European languages according to the population ratio. The legal status, financial and administrative autonomy of the Turkish National Agency were approved by the Turkish Grand National Assembly in July 2003. The learning of Turkish by Europeans as a foreign language of Turkish began with the establishment of commercial and political relations with the Ottoman Empire, and Turkology departments were opened in many universities. In the near future, commercial and political relations between Europe and Turkey are expected to increase with the accession negotiations Dec. Programs such as Leonardo, Socrates and Lingua, which are carried out within the European Community, offering educational, participant and instructor exchange, language learning opportunities, have been carried out in recent years within the framework of projects, especially with the participation of member and candidate countries. Turkey has also participated in these programs and has established a Socrates Commission. The aim of the foreign language policy adopted and proposed by the Council of Europe is to protect and develop linguistic and cultural diversity as a source of mutual wealth and to facilitate interpersonal relations, international flow and exchange of ideas. Dec.1. The aim of the foreign language policy adopted and proposed by the Council of Europe is to protect and develop language and cultural diversity as a source Dec. In this context, the Turkish language will also be a cultural richness and diversity for Europe, and it is expected that teaching and learning it as a foreign language will also be a factor that helps Turks to express themselves better in relations with Europeans.

On isolated singularities of mappings with finite length distortion

Here we give a survey of various integral criteria in terms of inner dilatations $K_{I}$ for the removability of isolated singularities of mappings with finite length distortion in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$, $n\geq 2$, that are a natural extension of the well-known Martio-Vaisal a mappings with bounded length distortion. In particular, the survey includes many effective integral criteria of the types of BMO, bounded mean oscillation by John-Nirenberg, FMO, finite mean oscillation, Calderon-Zygmund, Lehto, and Orlicz.

AWARENESS OF GUILT BY JUVENILE CRIMINALS AS A CONDITION FOR SUCCESSFUL RESOCIALIZATION

This article is devoted to the theoretical analysis of the study of psychological factors of the awareness of guilt by juvenile criminals. The concept of guilt, its psychological meaning and conscious-willed behavior as a sign of a person's sanity are analyzed. The main sign of a person's sanity is the ability to consciously and voluntarily behave, which consists in the ability of a person to be fully aware of the actual nature of his actions (inaction) and to control them. An integral criterion of conscious-volitional behavior is considered to be «socially oriented management of behavior in a choice situation». It means the ability and opportunity: to approach the choice of goals and means of action, being aware of oneself as a member of society, that is, taking into account their consequences for others; to be aware of the cause-and-effect dependencies of the chosen behavior option; to be aware of this variant of behavior as a special case of a certain type and class of phenomena, using at the same time socially oriented evaluations; use the mechanism of criticality in the course of choosing a behavior option; make a decision about the appropriate option of behavior, while maintaining control over it. The problem of the capacity for conscious-willed behavior of minors is studied, the features of resocialization of juvenile criminals are revealed. The processes of correction and resocialization of convicted minors, as well as the peculiarities of educational work with conditionally sentenced minors, are analyzed. Resocialization is understood as an organized social-psychological-pedagogical process of restoring social status, lost or unformed social skills in convicts, reorientation of their social attitudes and referent orientations due to inclusion in new positively oriented relationships. The effectiveness of the resocialization of juvenile criminals depends on the use of a comprehensive approach, combining the efforts of the subjects of the resocialization process at all levels of management.

Comparative analysis of ten Neighborhood Sustainability Assessment (NSA) tools offering integrated criteria for urban development

ABSTRACT Aligned with the recent trend of climate change mitigation and adaptation to rapid urbanization, sustainable urban development is crucial for creating resilient communities. Various international green building councils have developed Neighborhood Sustainability Assessment (NSA) tools that played an effective role in the urban growth of neighborhoods. However, there is no current NSA tool that includes all the categories required to achieve sustainability. Therefore, ten NSA tools were selected, analyzed, and compared. For an applicable comparative analysis, re-categorization and unifying processes of the selected NSA tools were performed. As a result, new integrated criteria were developed including seven main categories offering a valuable resource for evaluating neighborhood sustainability. The results also revealed that WELL Community V2 Q4, Fitwel CM V2.1, and BREEAM-CM V2012 tools demonstrate the highest efficiency by possessing six out of the seven integrated categories. The other NSA tools need to be improved with regard to the dimensions of sustainability. Furthermore, it was noted that all the selected NSA tools give major attention to the environmental conditions and facilities; however, other aspects such as the social, economic, and institutional features are being ignored. To sum up, the study proposes a novel approach that addresses these shortcomings by providing a more comprehensive framework that aims to support policy development and improve the effectiveness of neighborhood sustainability assessments.

Influence of Dose Distribution in the Target on the Values of Integral Radiobiological Criteria Based on Synthetic Dose-Volume Histograms

Purpose: To investigate the influence of absorbed dose distribution in the tumor volume on the values of
 integral radiobiological criteria, such as the probability of local tumor control (Tumor Control Probability, TCP) and normal tissue complication probability (NTCP), based on synthetic dose-volume histograms (DVH), which enables to assess the treatment effectiveness and probability of complications
 from healthy organs and tissues.
 Material and methods: Synthetic dose-volume histograms were considered theoretically possible to analyze the dependence of equivalent uniform dose (EUD) on values of Nimirko model parameters and absorbed dose distribution for both tumor and critical organs. The calculation was carried out in Wolfram
 Mathematica program based on the algorithm, where an array of absorbed dose values per fraction of
 irradiation volume with step by absorbed dose was calculated for the given values of absorbed dose and
 the parameter determining the width of distribution. The resulting array was differentiated to obtain
 the differential DVH. The EUD values were obtained from the normalized differential DVHs.
 Results: During analysis of EUD value dependence on parameter a values determining degree of nonlinearity of absorbed dose summation in sub-volumes of irradiation and on absorbed dose distribution
 the following was revealed: for critical organs at high values of parameter a the essential role belongs to
 high and average values of absorbed dose, and for tumors at low values of parameter a the main role belongs to the minimum value of absorbed dose. Thus, the value of parameter a should be negative for a
 tumor, and positive for critical organs, and should be specifically defined for specific structures.
 Conclusion: To improve the predictive value (prediction) of the effect of radiotherapy using the
 TCP/NTCP Nimirko model, an adequate definition of the parameter a, the value of which can only be determined from absorbed dose distributions over the volume of anatomical structures within clinical trials, is necessary.

Evaluation of Giomer Using Eighth Generation Bonding Agent and Resin-Modified Glass Ionomer Cement Restoration in Non-Carious Cervical Lesions.

Non-carious cervical lesions (NCCL) raise a considerable restorative challenge for the dentist in bonding, as adhesion is not as strong and predictable as enamel bonding. A critical factor for restorative success is the selection of restorative material. Clinicians have tried many restorative materials and techniques to obtain the best performance. The aim of the present study was to evaluate and compare the clinical outcome of a Giomer and Resin modified glass ionomer cement (RMGIC) restoration in NCCL using united states public health service (USPHS) criteria at baseline, 3, 6 and 12 months. Patients from age 25 - 50 years having non-carious cervical lesions on both the sides and requiring restorations were screened. 20 patients were selected and further divided into 2 groups using simple random sampling technique. Group A- Beautifil II restoration using G-Premio bond (n = 10) and Group B- Ketac N100 restoration (n = 10). Restorations were done according to manufacturer's instructions and consequently evaluated at baseline, 3, 6 and 12 months using the USPHS criteria for marginal discolouration, marginal integrity, surface texture, colour match, gross fracture and post-operative sensitivity. Giomer restorations showed better results than RMGIC. There was decrease in alpha ratings in both the study groups i.e., Giomer and RMGIC from 6 to 12 months. The overall findings suggest that both Giomer and RMGIC gave satisfactory clinical results when used to restore non-carious cervical lesions. Both the materials can successfully be used since there was no statistically significant difference in the clinical outcome.

Layout Quality Criteria for CMOS Standard Cells of Digital IC

The article is devoted to review and systematization of layout quality criteria for CMOS standard cells used as base core elements in EDA based digital IC design flows. Review of such criteria grouped by various quality aspects is given. It is shown with specific examples, that quality criteria of completed standard cell layouts can be used for a variety of purposes, including: analysis and quality control/assessment of standard cell libraries, identifying possibilities for layout improvements, and selecting the best variant of the layout among alternatives from different vendors (if available). Integral layout quality criterion, which enables flexible prioritization of different layout quality characteristics, is introduced. It is also proposed to use integral criterion for selecting between different layout versions of the same cell, obtained with different layout creation approaches. It is proposed to use branch-and-bound methodology based on quality criteria of partially completed (symbolic) layouts for selection from folded/placed/routed layout versions during the process of automated layout creation. Review of the criteria used for evaluating quality of the intermediate symbolic layouts during different stages of standard cell layout creation flow is also given in the article. Thus, with the thorough selection of intermediate layout versions the effectiveness of final layout is achieved. The results might be applied by standard cell libraries developers, but also by design engineers who should take a decision about different libraries usage based on comparative analysis.

Evaluation оf the Automated System of Scientific Research on the Survivability of Gas Production Facilities Effectiveness

In this article, the existing approaches to evaluating the effectiveness of automated research systems are considered. The choice of the evaluation method is justified and a criterion for evaluating the effectiveness of scientific studies of the survivability of gas production facilities is developed, taking into account generalized indicators: research time, resource efficiency, effectiveness. Based on expert assessments, the values of the coefficients of the significance of performance indicators are determined. The efficiency of scientific research on the survivability of gas production using existing automation systems and the proposed one has been evaluated. The analysis of the evaluation results showed an increase in the effectiveness of scientific research of survivability according to the integral criterion with the use of a new automated system by more than 2 times, which indicates the effectiveness of the developed software, methodological and informational support of such a system.

On the Dirichlet problem for A-harmonic functions

We study the Dirichlet boundary value problem with continuous boundary data for the A-harmonic equations div[A grad u] = 0 in an arbitrary bounded domain D of the complex plane £ with no boundary component degenerated to a single point. We provide integral criteria, including the BMO and FMO criteria expressed in terms of A (z), for the existence of weak solutions to the problem. We also discuss the connections between A-harmonic functions and potential theory.

BARIK: an extended Hoek–Brown-based anisotropic constitutive model for fractured crystalline rock

Abstract. The disposal of heat-generating radioactive waste in deep geologic formations is a global concern. Numerical methods play a key role in understanding and assessing the disposal scenarios of radioactive waste in deep geological repositories. However, the complexities of the thermal, hydrological, mechanical, chemical, and biological processes associated with the disposal of radioactive waste in porous and fractured materials constitute significant challenges. One of the most challenging issues in this field is the complex material behavior of fractured crystalline rock. The presence of fractures makes the rock anisotropic, nonlinear, and dependent on loading paths. Additionally, the Biot coefficient cannot be considered constant throughout the critical and subcritical fracture development regions. These factors make the development of an accurate constitutive model for fractured crystalline hard rock a critical component of any deep geological disposal project. Furthermore, to demonstrate the integrity of the containment-providing rock zone in crystalline host rock, the qualitative integrity criteria must be quantified so that numerical simulation can be performed with concrete numerical values. Part of this assessment for a crystalline host rock is a dilatancy criterion, which is currently based on the Hoek–Brown constitutive model. BARIK is the German acronym for the research project on which this paper is based. This contribution provides an overview of the development and verification of the BARIK constitutive model, an extended Hoek–Brown model for fractured crystalline hard rock that takes into account up to three fracture systems. The model enables the consideration of the matrix and joint behavior of the rock separately, with each component having unique strength characteristics and failure criteria. These criteria are formulated such that suitable consideration of the strength-reducing properties of the respective fracture systems during barrier integrity verification is possible. The BARIK model has been implemented into two computer codes, FLAC3D and MFront for OpenGeoSys, allowing for the identification and evaluation of any inaccuracies that may arise from the use of different codes. The model enables isotropic–elastic, orthotropic–elastic, isotropic–elasto-plastic, and orthotropic–elasto-plastic calculations of the matrix, making it a valuable tool for the site selection process and for the construction and long-term safety of underground repositories. Furthermore, this poster presentation will show how the constitutive model was evaluated in relation to the dilatancy criterion and how the BARIK constitutive model's suitability for conducting an integrity assessment was validated. In conclusion, the development of BARIK is a significant step forward in the understanding and modeling of the complex material behavior of fractured crystalline hard rock. This contribution will provide insights into the development and verification of this model for the safe disposal of radioactive waste.

How do uncertain parameters affect the analysis of host rock integrity? Methods and preliminary results for a generic clay rock site

Abstract. The thermal, hydraulic, and mechanical effects of excavating the repository mine and the thermal loading of nuclear waste on the safety of the geological barrier system are addressed in the regulations as integrity analyses. For repositories in clay rock, a modelling and assessment methodology has been developed in the ANSICHT (Methodik und Anwendungsbezug eines Sicherheits- und Nachweiskonzeptes für ein HAW-Endlager im Tonstein) project based on thermo-hydro-mechanically (THM) coupled simulations using the open-source software project OpenGeoSys and has been illustrated by its application to a generic clay rock site in northern Germany. However, the assessment can be significantly influenced by uncertainties in the model inputs, which result, on the one hand, from the limited ability to characterize the geological barrier and, on the other hand, from fundamental difficulties and inaccuracies in the measurements. Hence, the results of these established integrity analyses have to be enriched by statistical information. The developed workflow comprises different steps beginning with a realistic characterization of parameter uncertainties. A surrogate model based on mathematically sound techniques is built to capture the propagation of these uncertainties through the THM simulation and the integrity criteria evaluation. The model can then be evaluated to obtain probabilistic results for rock integrity assessment and a sensitivity analysis to identify the inputs that primarily impact the results. In this contribution, we present preliminary results based on the generic repository system from the ANSICHT project and the developed tools for stochastic analyses. This work is done as part of the BGE-funded research cluster URS (Uncertainties and Robustness with regard to the Safety of a repository for high-level radioactive waste).

BARIK: laboratory programme within the framework of the development of an extended Hoek–Brown-based anisotropic constitutive model for fractured crystalline rock

Abstract. The disposal of heat-generating radioactive waste in deep geologic formations is a global concern. Numerical methods play a key role in understanding and assessing the disposal scenarios of radioactive waste in deep geological repositories. However, the complexities of the thermal, hydrological, mechanical, chemical, and biological processes associated with the disposal of radioactive waste in porous and fractured materials constitute significant challenges. One of the most challenging issues in this field is the complex material behaviour of fractured crystalline rock. The presence of fractures makes the rock anisotropic, nonlinear, and dependent on loading paths. Additionally, the Biot coefficient cannot be considered constant throughout the critical and subcritical fracture development regions. These factors make the development of an accurate constitutive model for fractured crystalline hard rock a critical component of any deep geological disposal project. Furthermore, to demonstrate the integrity of the “containment effective rock area” in crystalline host rock, the qualitative integrity criteria must be quantified so that numerical simulation can be performed with concrete numerical values. Part of this assessment for a crystalline host rock is a dilatancy criterion, which is currently based on the Hoek–Brown constitutive model. This contribution provides an overview and first results of the laboratory programme, which was performed as a part of the research project. The aim was to generate a fundamental and extensive dataset for an anisotropic material used for verification and validation purposes of the newly developed constitutive model. The rock material for the test programme was “Freiberger gneiss” because of its pronounced anisotropic properties regarding deformation and strength as well as the good access to obtain a larger amount of sample material. A wide range of basic tests have been performed, e.g. determination of density and porosity, measurement of ultrasonic wave velocities to get dynamic elastic properties, Brazilian tests, and uniaxial compression tests to obtain strength data. Additionally, a large number of more complex multi-stage triaxial compression tests with examination of the post-failure region and hydromechanical coupled triaxial compression tests have been conducted or are in progress. The hydromechanical part, in particular, plays an important role in examining and quantifying the evolution of the micromechanical damage process, which changes the permeability and Biot coefficient and therefore the effective stresses inside a saturated rock material. Tests were conducted with different orientations of the structural planes in relation to the loading directions.

Clinical performance of non-carious cervical lesions restored with using self-etch mode of adhesives according to the FDI criteria.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the 18-month retrospective study of self-etch adhesive (Prime&Bond One Select) and self-etch mode of universal adhesives (Single Bond Universal, Gluma Bond Universal) applied to non-carious cervical lesions according to the World Dental Federation criteria. Thirty patients without any systemic disease, good oral hygiene, having at least 20 teeth and six non-carious cervical lesions treated using a self-etch mode of adhesives operated between January and March 2017. Accordingly, 335 restorations were evaluated according to the World Dental Federation criteria at 3, 6, 12 and 18 months. Pillai's Trace test was used to determine the interaction of criteria with time and adhesive systems. IBM SPSS Statistics 21.0 program was used in the analysis. Value of P < 0.05 was accepted as a criterion for statistical significance. At the end of 18 months, participation was 100%. There was a statistically significant difference P < 0.05 between Prime&Bond One Select and Single Bond Universal, Prime&Bond One Select and Gluma Bond Universal in the 18-month period. In terms of marginal staining, fracture of material and retention, recurrence of caries, erosion and abfraction, tooth integrity criteria at the end of the 18 months, Prime&Bond One Select performed clinically very good, Single Bond Universal and Gluma Bond Universal performed clinically good according to World Dental Federation criteria. Marginal adaptation criteria, Prime&Bond One Select, Single Bond Universal and Gluma Bond Universal performed clinically good. Retention loss rate was found to be the lowest in Prime&Bond One Select and the highest in Gluma Bond Universal. Accordingly, 18-month evaluation of all adhesives used in the study showed clinically acceptable results in all of the World Dental Federation criteria.

Necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of large solutions to semilinear elliptic equations with gradient terms

Our purpose in this paper is to carry out a comprehensive investigation into the question of existence and non-existence of large solutions to semilinear elliptic equations with non-linear gradient terms in bounded domains of the Euclidean space. Based on new Keller-Osserman type integrability criteria, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of large solutions. The novelty in our study rests on the fact that the Keller-Osserman type conditions we employ take both the growth rates of the gradient term as well as those of the first order non-linearity terms into account. When the gradient term does not appear, our criteria reduces to the well-known Keller-Osserman condition.

On a family of Siegel Poincaré series

Let [Formula: see text] be a congruence subgroup of [Formula: see text]. Using Poincaré series of [Formula: see text]-finite matrix coefficients of integrable discrete series representations of [Formula: see text], we construct a spanning set for the space [Formula: see text] of Siegel cusp forms of weight [Formula: see text]. We prove the non-vanishing of certain elements of this spanning set using Muić’s integral non-vanishing criterion for Poincaré series on locally compact Hausdorff groups. Moreover, using the representation theory of [Formula: see text], we study the Petersson inner products of corresponding cuspidal automorphic forms, thereby recovering a representation-theoretic proof of some well-known results on the reproducing kernel function of [Formula: see text]. Our results are obtained by generalizing representation-theoretic methods developed by Muić in his work on holomorphic cusp forms on the upper half-plane to the setting of Siegel cusp forms of a higher degree.

Development and application of a supercritical fluid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method for the simultaneous determination of pantoprazole enantiomers in rat plasma

The study aimed to develop a supercritical fluid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (SFC-MS/MS) method for the enantioselective separation and quantification of pantoprazole in rat plasma. The method utilized protein precipitation with acetonitrile to prepare plasma samples. SFC was performed on an Acquity ultra-performance convergence chromatography (UPCC) system. An Acquity UPCC Trefoil™ CEL2 column was employed for enantioseparation, and isocratic elution was achieved using a mobile phase consisting of CO2-methanol (81:19, v/v). The detection of pantoprazole enantiomers and the internal standard phenacetin was carried out using a Xevo TQD triple quadrupole mass spectrometer in selected reaction monitoring mode with positive electrospray ionization. The developed method successfully achieved full separation of S- and R-pantoprazole enantiomers. Calibration curves were linear in the concentration range of 10–5000 ng/mL for both S- and R-pantoprazole. The method met the acceptance criteria for carry-over, accuracy, precision, extraction recovery, matrix effect, stability, and dilution integrity, demonstrating its stereoselectivity, sensitivity, accuracy, precision, and reliability. The validated method was then applied to investigate the toxicokinetics of racemic pantoprazole and evaluate the potential of chiral inversion between S- and R-pantoprazole in rats. Following oral administration of 200 mg/kg racemic pantoprazole once daily for 90 consecutive days, there was no significant difference in toxicokinetic parameters between the two enantiomers on both day 1 (single-dose experiment) and day 90 (multiple-dose experiment). This suggests that there is no enantioselectivity in the toxicokinetic behaviors of racemic pantoprazole in rat plasma. Additionally, bidirectional chiral inversion between S- and R-pantoprazole in plasma was observed after single-dose and multiple-dose oral administrations of S-pantoprazole (20, 100, and 200 mg/kg) or R-pantoprazole (200 mg/kg) to rats. Compared to single and low doses, there was no accumulation of each enantiomer in rat plasma following repeated and escalated dosing. Overall, this study provided the first report on the toxicokinetics of pantoprazole in rat plasma and presented the first SFC-MS/MS method for the simultaneous quantification of pantoprazole enantiomers in rat plasma.

A New Digital Twins-Based Overcurrent Protection Scheme for Distributed Energy Resources Integrated Distribution Networks

This paper presents a novel overcurrent protection scheme based on digital twins for a distribution network with distributed energy resources. A coordination protection standard is employed to perform settings and coordinate intelligent electronic devices, evaluating the effects of distributed energy resources. In addition, some integration criteria for distributed energy resources are proposed to identify the impact on overcurrent protections. The power hardware-in-the-loop (PHIL) scheme is designed to develop digital twins (DT) that connect the real relays to the simulated network. Moreover, a standard for substation automation is employed to define the communication protocol for reading Generic Object-Oriented Substation Events (GOOSE) messages. Furthermore, the IEEE 13-node test feeder is employed to validate the method and model in the real-time simulation software. The results show a miscoordination of the overcurrent protection scheme installed in the distribution network with the action of different distributed energy resources.

Scientific misconduct: Plagiarism and non-compliance with disclosure of interest: Retrospective analysis of 1 year's submissions to Orthopaedics & Traumatology: Surgery & Research

IntroductionAuthors submitting to Orthopaedics & Traumatology: Surgery & Research (OTSR) must fulfill the criteria of scientific integrity (SI), including issues of plagiarism and disclosure of interest. These data have not been assessed for OTSR and we therefore conducted a retrospective study of (1) potential plagiarism rates, (2) deficient disclosure of interest (for French authors), and (3) correlation between the two. HypothesisSuspected plagiarism rates exceed 20% and the non-disclosure rate exceeds 80%. Material and methodsWe analyzed 1 year's submissions to OTSR: January 24, 2022 to January 23, 2023. Articles were checked for plagiarism, using iThenticate software (Turnitin, Oakland, CA, USA), with a threshold of > 20% matching. Conflicts of interest, for French authors, investigated on the French Ministry of Health Transparence website (www.transparence.sante.gouv.fr), with non-disclosure defined by undeclared amounts exceeding €1000. ResultsIn total, 851 submissions were analyzed. iThenticate identified 152 (17.7%) with > 20% matching to an already published article. This likely plagiarism varied (p<0.01) between geographic origins of submissions. In the 289 submissions by French authors, there were 275 (95%) failures to report amounts exceeding €1000. Combined non-disclosure and plagiarism was found in only 3 articles submitted by French authors (3/289: 1.03%). DiscussionOTSR applies the Recommendations for the Conduct, Reporting, Editing and Publication of Scholarly Work in Medical Journals (www.icmje.org), adheres to the guidelines of the Committee On Publication Ethics (COPE) and the French Health Authority (HAS), and has an ethics committee. Plagiarism is a major SI breach, suspected in 20% of submissions. Also, 95% of French authors failed to properly disclose their interests on submitting an article, although this declaration is mandatory in France and is an integral aspect of SI. There are also other forms of misconduct, such as failure to comply with the French “Jardé” law on research involving human subjects, failure to obtain review board approval, unjustified claims to authorship or deficient archiving, that were not analyzed here. ConclusionsAlthough overall plagiarism rates were under 20% for submissions to OTSR, some geographic areas were more concerned than others. Also, despite reminders by the editorial board, only 5% of French authors made full disclosures; this is a major breach of SI, requiring correction on the part of French authors. Level of evidenceIV; retrospective study.

МОДЕЛЬ ОЦІНКИ КОНКУРЕНТОСПРОМОЖНОСТІ ВИСОКОТЕХНОЛОГІЧНИХ ПІДПРИЄМСТВ НА ЗАСАДАХ ФОРМУВАННЯ КЛЮЧОВИХ КОМПЕТЕНЦІЙ

The article proposes a model for assessing the competitiveness of high-tech, innovative and active enterprises in the space industry, taking into account competitive advantages based on the formation of key production competencies. The specifics of the application of dynamic models for the analysis of the competitiveness of innovatively active enterprises were specified: the parameters of the necessary dynamic models that take into account the diffusion of competitiveness indicators based a linear differential system. The article proposes a model for evaluating the dependence of competitive advantages on competencies: the dynamic model is based on equations with a lagging element that reflect the non-linear and time-lag nature of the impact of competencies on innovative technologies that directly affect competitiveness, and allows taking into account different variants of dependence with a time lag. An algorithm for multi-criteria rating evaluation of the effectiveness of using the innovative potential of a high-tech enterprise as a source of organizational and production competencies was developed. The article developed a multi-level hierarchical structure of competitiveness indicators: the application of the method of forming criteria weights based on the production rules of aggregating object evaluations and the method of approximation of the matrix of pairwise comparisons of objects of the multiplicative matrix for estimating the error of the decision obtained by the analytical hierarchy method is substantiated. The formation of innovative potential indicates the presence of appropriate organizational competencies for its management. The multifactorial nature of the proposed model for evaluating innovation potential allows to assess the contribution of influencing factors to the overall results, while a comparison of factors for different enterprises allows to identify the leader. Thus, the model allows to solve several tasks in the field of competence management: to assess the overall level of development of innovation potential as an integral criterion of competence in the field of innovation and knowledge management; to identify the strengths of the enterprise and the risks associated with the management of innovative potential. The factors included in the model can be used as resources to ensure the achievement of high results, which corresponds to the «resource theory» of enterprise activity. In addition, the proposed model allows to compare objective quantitative indicators of competitors and identify key competencies and their carriers, whose impact on competitiveness is the most critical and important. The result of this stage is the local and global coefficients of the importance of the criteria at each level of the hierarchy. It was proposed to evaluate objects in the original (qualitative, quantitative) scales according to private indicators, their normalization and aggregation of evaluations according to the global criterion is performed by several aggregation mechanisms depending on the initial data, and an integrated approach to the aggregation of evaluations of innovative competencies of high-tech enterprises.
