Structural integrity assessment of a solid propellant grain considering confining pressure effect

Confining pressure has a significant effect on the mechanical properties of solid propellant, and it is crucial to develop a refined structural integrity analysis and assessment method considering confining pressure effect and nonlinearity of propellant material for the design of propellant grain of a solid rocket motor (SRM), especially for the design of high charge modulus. In this work, an existing viscoelastic-viscodamage constitutive model considering confining pressure effect was implemented as a user-defined material subroutine and verified using a few experiments under various confining pressures. The mechanical responses and safety factor of a typical variable cross-section propellant charge SRM with various charge modulus under ignition pressurization load and room temperature were analyzed and evaluated. The results show that the user-defined material subroutine can well describe nonlinear mechanical responses of solid propellant under different experimental conditions. The Von Mises stress and minimum safety factor considering the confining pressure effect are higher than the value without considering the confining pressure effect, while the Von Mises strain is opposite. In addition, regardless of whether the confining pressure effect is considered or not, the maximum Von Mises stress and strain show a nonlinear increasing relationship with the charge modulus, and the minimum safety factor decreases with charge modulus. However, when analyzing the structural integrity of high charge modulus, using two evaluation methods will yield completely different evaluation results. It is believed that this research can support structural integrity analysis and design of high charge modulus SRM.

Study on controllability assessment of a new type of power system based on lagrangian function integrated assessment method

The complex structure and multiple controllability metrics of the new power system require a comprehensive assessment approach. We propose a controllability assessment method based on the Lagrangian function, analyzing key factors that influence controllability. Our index system includes distributed power supply utilization rate, energy storage station charge state, power factor, and voltage offset. Using Lagrange shadow price theory, we construct a guideline layer index system treating bottom indexes as constraints. We formulate an optimization function utilizing the Lagrangian shadow price theory and considering weights calculated from the bottom index’s shadow price. These weights inform primary evaluation. By combining primary evaluation results, weights, and variable coefficients using the percentage system method, we determine comprehensive evaluation results for the new power system’s controllability. Experimental results demonstrate the high reliability of this method’s evaluation indexes, indicating their effectiveness. This research provides valuable insight for the advancement of the new power system. Region 1 had the lowest overall evaluation score of 51.57 and was rated general. The overall score of Region 2 was 77.24, which was considered good. Region 3 received the highest overall score of 86.29 and was rated as excellent.Graphical

ENHANCING INVESTMENT POTENTIAL IN THE CONTEXT OF ENSURING FINANCIAL SECURITY OF THE AGRICULTURAL SECTOR IN UKRAINE

This study aims to justify ways to enhance the investment potential in the context of strengthening and improving the financial security of the agricultural sector of Ukraine's economy. According to the authors of the article, it is important to perform a scientific task that involves presenting a modern theoretical-scientific approach to assessing the investment attractiveness and the efficiency of using the investment potential of the agricultural sector in the regions of Ukraine. Investment potential in the agricultural sector means the ability and prospects for investing capital in the sector with the aim of ensuring financial security. This potential is determined by various indicators that either increase or decrease the sector's attractiveness for investment. The research uses a trend line in forecasting investments, a method of integral rating assessment, and an auxiliary method of normalization used for indicators. This study proposes a theoretical-scientific approach that includes analyzing and compiling a ranking of regions in terms of their investment attractiveness and the efficiency of using investment opportunities in the agricultural sector in the context of ensuring financial security. An algorithm is used to establish the criteria for assessing the investment attractiveness of various regions and to compile a ranking of regions based on indicators of each sphere of investment attractiveness related to the issue of ensuring financial security. Based on the results obtained, strategic decisions regarding ensuring financial security were identified. The authors note that the study has limitations due to considering only the specifics of the agricultural sector of Ukraine's economy. Moreover, due to the state of war, not all regions of the country were considered in the article. Prospects for further research involve assessing the investment potential in the post-war period for all regions of Ukraine.

FORMATION OF SPATIAL FACTORS ENSURING THE INVESTMENT ATTRACTIVENESS OF REGIONAL LANDS

It has been proven that modern directions and features of land relations at the regional level require a rethinking of approaches to their formation in the context of ensuring the investment attractiveness of regional lands. The purpose of the study is to identify spatial factors in ensuring the investment attractiveness of the lands of the regions. To achieve the goal, the following tasks were solved: to analyze the state and trends of changes in spatial factors; to substantiate the spatial factors of ensuring the investment attractiveness of the lands of the regions. In order to solve the problematic aspects, it is necessary to define and justify the spatial factors of ensuring the investment attractiveness of the lands of the regions, which is an urgent and timely task. A categorical apparatus for determining the investment attractiveness of the lands of the regions was formed, which is based on a set of interrelated spatial, economic, urban planning, ecological, innovative, security, regulatory and legal factors and modern tools of geo-information systems, methods, models, which made it possible to build a quantitative basis for the development of adoption reasoned decisions regarding the attraction of investments in the field of land relations at the regional level. As a result of the study, the factors of land formation and use that affect the investment attractiveness of the lands of the regions and build the foundation for the creation of spatial support are determined. Spatial factors ensuring the investment attractiveness of land at the regional level are determined. The presented factors are an element of a multi-level system of indicators for assessing the level of ensuring the investment attractiveness of the lands of the regions in the context of the development of the integral assessment method. Spatial factors as an important element of investment attractiveness of regional land use are used in mathematical modeling to establish cause-and-effect relationships and create a basis for characterizing further changes. This makes it possible to develop scientifically based recommendations for ensuring the investment attractiveness of regional land use. Keywords: land use, investment attractiveness of land, regions, spatial factor.

An integrated assessment method of real-time source term for high temperature gas-cooled reactor

To address high temperature gas-cooled reactor (HTR) nuclear power plant (NPP) safety analysis and emergency response, this paper proposes an integrated source term assessment (ISTA) method, guided by the principles of reality, rapidity and rationality. The fundamental concept of ISTA is to establish a connection between the theoretical model of source term (ST) calculation and actual conditions of HTR NPPs. According to the ISTA method, STs can be evaluated by mapping key parameters through monitoring variables during any abnormal operational conditions or accident conditions, resulting in a more realistic representation. Furthermore, the output of STs in various typical spaces within an HTR NPP further expands the application scope beyond the development of nuclear emergency protection strategies. In addition, a corresponding tool (ISTAT) for engineering application is developed and the case is given to verify the feasibility. This research highlights the technological advancement affecting radiological release scenarios and avoiding unnecessary conservatism, which also can give reference for other advanced reactor NPPs.

Conclusion. The method of integral assessment of harmful working conditions of medical workers makes it possible to quantitatively carry out a differentiated selection of the totality of the most dangerous industrial factors for the health of doctors.

An integrated risk assessment method for urban areas due to chemical leakage accidents

Chemical parks which hold large inventories of hazardous materials have become one important type of urban critical infrastructure. The hazardous chemical leakage such as toxic gas leakage has emerged in recent years, resulting in not only serious environmental pollution but also catastrophic consequences to certain urban areas. It is critical to make scientific risk assessment for such events to reduce negative effects. To address this issue, an integrated urban risk assessment (IURA) method coupling consequences of chemical leakage accidents and the vulnerability of local population is proposed in this work. The threat zones and hazard maps of toxic gas dispersion are present by using the ALOHA software. The population vulnerability is decided by three indicators including exposure, sensitivity, and adaptive capacity of residents in affected areas, the Grey Correlation-TOPSIS (GC-TOPSIS) method is used to rank the vulnerability of different regions. The ArcGIS software is applied to generate an integrated risk map through superimposing the hazard map and the population vulnerability map. The original risk matrix evaluation results were subdivided using the Borda count method. A case about an industrial city in Hubei, China is analyzed to test the method. Result shows the new integrated risk assessment method is more accurate and effective, which is beneficial for the government to develop emergency plans and enhance the safety of people.

Sustainability and Resilience Assessment Methods: A Literature Review to Support the Decarbonization Target for the Construction Sector

It is a well-known issue that the 2050 target of carbon emissions neutrality will be reached only with the co-operation of all the interested sectors, and the construction sector could be one of the main contributors to this change. With the built environment globally responsible for about 40% of annual global energy-related CO2 emissions, the construction sector offers an important opportunity to drive transformative change and presents the most challenging mitigation potential among all industrial sectors, which also brings opportunities for adopting sustainability practices and increasing resilience. This paper presents a systematic literature review of those two pivotal concepts to reach the decarbonization goal: sustainability and resilience. Starting from an extensive literature review (2536 scientific documents) based on the PRISMA statement, the definitions and assessment methodologies of those concepts for the construction sector have been studied. The methodological approach followed for their analysis has been conducted on a first selection of 42 documents, further reduced to 12 by using clear inclusion criteria to identify the integrated assessment procedures. The main goal of this study is to clarify the correlation between sustainability and resilience concepts for constructions and their integrated assessment, in line with the latest regulations and market needs. The results show that, currently, sustainability and resilience are mainly evaluated in a distinct way to obtain building energy performance certificates, as well as to quantify the building market value and its complementary contribution to the ‘energy efficiency first’ principle and energy-saving targets towards the emergent issue of climate change. Few works focus on the integrated assessment of both concepts considering the construction industries’ point of view about materials and/or systems for buildings. The novelty of this study is the critical review of the current sustainability and resilience integrated assessment methods used for the construction value chain, declined for four main target groups. Researchers, policymakers, industries, and professionals could gain dedicated insights and practical suggestions to put in practice the elements of circular economy, ecological innovation, and cleaner production, which are essential in order to drive the decarbonization of the built environment.

Integrative building safety evaluation to mitigate disaster risks: a case study on public-use buildings in Seoul

ABSTRACT Recognizing potential hazards is imperative for devising pragmatic building inspection and management strategies. However, existing safety evaluation standards across diverse fields have inherent limitations in ensuring overall building safety. Chained and cascading damages following a catastrophic disaster necessitate comprehensive safety management. Thus, this study derived evaluation criteria and determined their priority to assess building safety against various hazardous events in urban settings. This case study targeted Seoul’s public-use buildings with high risks of potential harm to many regular users. Moreover, this study aggregated evaluation categories from existing inspection and certification standards into field-specific groups, including architecture, fire safety, electrical systems, gas systems, vertical transportation, and crime prevention. This categorical evaluation was further analyzed based on their importance for preventing disasters and minimizing damage, emphasizing fire safety as the most essential for securing building safety. In addition, categories evaluated from a preventative perspective hold significantly greater importance than those focused on mitigating damage. This finding underscores the need for proactive monitoring and enhanced building safety across six fields before a disaster strikes. The integrated assessment method facilitates determining which areas are well managed or need improvement. Furthermore, this approach enables efficient building safety enhancement by prioritizing field-specific or evaluation criterion-specific areas.

Optical Genome Mapping Reveals Genomic Alterations upon Gene Editing in hiPSCs: Implications for Neural Tissue Differentiation and Brain Organoid Research.

Genome editing, notably CRISPR (cluster regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats)/Cas9 (CRISPR-associated protein 9), has revolutionized genetic engineering allowing for precise targeted modifications. This technique's combination with human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) is a particularly valuable tool in cerebral organoid (CO) research. In this study, CRISPR/Cas9-generated fluorescently labeled hiPSCs exhibited no significant morphological or growth rate differences compared with unedited controls. However, genomic aberrations during gene editing necessitate efficient genome integrity assessment methods. Optical genome mapping, a high-resolution genome-wide technique, revealed genomic alterations, including chromosomal copy number gain and losses affecting numerous genes. Despite these genomic alterations, hiPSCs retain their pluripotency and capacity to generate COs without major phenotypic changes but one edited cell line showed potential neuroectodermal differentiation impairment. Thus, this study highlights optical genome mapping in assessing genome integrity in CRISPR/Cas9-edited hiPSCs emphasizing the need for comprehensive integration of genomic and morphological analysis to ensure the robustness of hiPSC-based models in cerebral organoid research.

ASSESSING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF STATE POLICY FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF SMALL AND MEDIUM-SIZED BUSINESSES: FINANCIAL ASPECT

The main purpose of the article is a theoretical and methodological substantiation of the optimal choice of a modern strategy for implementing state policy for the development of small and medium-sized businesses in Ukraine. The object of the study is the development of small and medium-sized businesses. The subject of the study is the state policy for the development of small and medium-sized businesses in Ukraine. The scientific task posed in the article involves demonstrating a new approach to choosing the optimal strategy for implementing the state policy for the development of small and medium-sized businesses in Ukraine. The research methodology involves the use of various methods, including the expert analysis method, the paired comparison method, the Delphi method, the integral assessment method, the regression analysis method and a number of general theoretical methods, such as synthesis, deduction, abstract logical, etc. As a result of our research, we presented two models of optimal financial support for the development of small and medium-sized businesses in Ukraine. The calculation made it possible to select one that is most significant for modern conditions. An approach is proposed to assess the effectiveness of the development of small and medium-sized businesses through the calculation of an integral indicator of the effectiveness of the implementation of state policy for the development of small and medium-sized businesses. The study has limitations and does not take into account statistics for the last year in the calculation due to the lack of a number of indicators due to martial law. Prospects for further research are to focus on solving the problems of effectively countering modern financial threats and risks in the context of implementing state policy for the development of small and medium-sized businesses under martial law.

Analysis of long-term dynamics of morbidity by the method of complex assessment at different territorial levels

BACKGROUND: A comparative epidemiological analysis of the primary incidence of tuberculosis was performed using its standard approach with a generalized indicator that considers the main statistical criteria for incidence. The “sensitivity” of the method may vary depending on the population from analyzed territories.
 AIM: This study aimed to perform a comparative assessment of the epidemiology of tuberculosis (TB) in different territories based on the standard incidence rate and modified method of its integral assessment.
 MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective study of the dynamics of the incidence of tuberculosis in the total population from the federal districts (FD) of Russia and participants from the Siberian Federal District (SFD) and urban municipalities of the Irkutsk Region (a structural unit of the SFD) between 2005 and 2019 was performed. Based on the obtained integral indicators, a generalized visibility coefficient was calculated.
 RESULTS: A significant decrease in the incidence of TB was found in all patients from FD and SFD participants. Assessment of the average long-term incidence rates showed that the maximum discrepancy between ranking places was inversely proportional to the size of the studied territories: 1.5 positions, at the level of the FD; two positions, at the level of regional formations; and five positions, at the level of urban settlements.
 CONCLUSIONS: The integral assessment method can be used in the primary analysis of morbidity in all types of infectious and noninfectious pathologies. The generalized morbidity criterion expands the informative possibilities of the standard indicator, contributes to the substantiation of risk areas at the initial stages of epidemiological analysis, and responds more “sensitively” to changes in the epidemiological situation in relatively small areas.

Bridging barriers: advances and challenges in modeling biological barriers and measuring barrier integrity in organ-on-chip systems.

Biological barriers such as the blood-brain barrier, skin, and intestinal mucosal barrier play key roles in homeostasis, disease physiology, and drug delivery - as such, it is important to create representative in vitro models to improve understanding of barrier biology and serve as tools for therapeutic development. Microfluidic cell culture and organ-on-a-chip (OOC) systems enable barrier modelling with greater physiological fidelity than conventional platforms by mimicking key environmental aspects such as fluid shear, accurate microscale dimensions, mechanical cues, extracellular matrix, and geometrically defined co-culture. As the prevalence of barrier-on-chip models increases, so does the importance of tools that can accurately assess barrier integrity and function without disturbing the carefully engineered microenvironment. In this review, we first provide a background on biological barriers and the physiological features that are emulated through in vitro barrier models. Then, we outline molecular permeability and electrical sensing barrier integrity assessment methods, and the related challenges specific to barrier-on-chip implementation. Finally, we discuss future directions in the field, as well important priorities to consider such as fabrication costs, standardization, and bridging gaps between disciplines and stakeholders.

Організаційно-правові аспекти безпекового кадрового потенціалу в системі управління проєктами підприємств сфери агротуризму

The article is devoted to issues of implementation of organizational and legal mechanisms of safe personnel potential in the agritourism project management system of enterprises. Based on the study, a method of integral assessment of the safety personnel potential in the project management system of enterprises in the field of agritourism was proposed. The purpose of the study is to study the organizational and legal aspects of the safety personnel potential in the agritourism project management system of enterprises. It is proven that in the period of crises and bifurcations, the issue of security management of agritourism enterprises, in particular, security personnel potential, is brought to the fore, as it is a universal category that reflects the security of the subject of economic relations. An enterprise in agritourism cannot be considered adequate or wholly protected if the signature of impulses is disturbed for a specific time. After the consequences and hysteresis of the control system began to be applied, concentrated adaptation tools began to be applied because danger reduces controllability. Therefore, both implicit and explicit research on the issues of safe personnel potential in the system of adaptation of enterprises to turbulence is undoubtedly relevant. Features of enterprises in agritourism in Ukraine – seasonality, the impossibility of using non-traditional forms of employment, localization, the biological safety factor, and the underdevelopment of risk hedging strengthen the role of safe personnel potential in the management system. The methodical approach to the integral assessment of the safety personnel potential in the project management system of enterprises in the field of agritourism of Ukraine has been updated according to 38 indicators that characterize six main aspects of ensuring personnel activities, including a group of indicators of the motivational component of the safety personnel potential, a group of indicators that reflect the provision and efficiency of the use of personnel, a group of indicators for ensuring the protection of life activities of personnel, a group of indicators of the professional component of the safety personnel potential, a group of indicators of the social component of the safety personnel potential, and a group of indicators of the evaluation of the safety personnel potential system. This approach has been tested in enterprises in agritourism, which will ensure the proper level of their functioning and development with the help of practical strategies and an effectively formed personnel safety management mechanism. Keywords: organization, law, security, personnel potential, system, project management, enterprises, the field of agritourism.

Assessment of the effects of production system development projects: Case study of Lytkarino Optical Glass Factory

Objectives. Effective import substitution can be achieved only through the creation and use of efficient domestic production capacities. The aim of this study is to develop and justify a method for the integrated assessment of the effects of projects aimed at the introduction of new equipment, including import substitution projects.Methods. The research was based on systemic and dialectical approaches, as well as systemic, comparative, economic and mathematical methods, and statistical analysis.Results. The paper proposes a method for the integrated assessment of production system development projects. In order to obtain a synthetic assessment, a system of indicators was developed to study the effects of production system development projects, i.e., projects for the introduction of new equipment. The effects of the introduction of new equipment can be divided into internal and external: potential development, socioeconomic, import independence, public, and environmental. The indicators are not current values, but changes in dynamics. A comprehensive consideration of the effects allows the existing criteria for decision-making to be expanded when implementing projects to develop the production system. It also allows the impact on both the enterprise and society to be assessed. The authors define both the quantitative and qualitative indicators for each group of effects. On the basis of the author’s system of indicators, a methodology for comparative comparison of indicators using normalized indices was developed and the calculation of a generalized indicator substantiated. The proposed system of indicators was successfully tested at the Lytkarino Optical Glass Factory science-intensive enterprise when assessing a new domestic device for the development of the production system.Conclusions. The results of the approved method for integrated assessment enabled the use of diverse indicators for the quantitative and qualitative assessment of the effects of the introduction of science-intensive projects. This included projects for import substitution of machinery and equipment. A combination of various effects will be relevant to any socioeconomic system, so the proposed integrated assessment method for evaluating the effects is universal to a certain extent. It can thus be adapted for scientific, technical and technological projects on import substitution of any industrial enterprise.

Sustainability assessment of textile and apparel sector: a review of current approaches and tools

The purpose of this study is to provide an overview of sustainability evaluation techniques in textile and apparel sector. The review studies are divided into two namely product relate assessment methods and integrated assessment methods which summarizes the different dimension covered, weightage, number of indicators involved, and highlight the weakness and strength of the previous developed sustainability assessment methods in the textile industry. The analysis revealed that majority of the product-related assessment methods focused on environmental factors only, while all the studies reviewed in this category neglected triple bottom line (TBL) in their assessment approach. Nevertheless, there is still a need to focus more on integrated assessment tools to fulfil the TBL goals. This current study offers comprehensive details of product related assessment and integrated assessment methods that was published from 2010 to 2022. Furthermore, examined current sustainability evaluation methods and offered insights into how sustainability assessment techniques have evolved in the textile and apparel industry. The review showed the product related assessment tools are impact assessment techniques are frequently used as an independent tool for evaluating the specific impact of one sustainability measurement, also have no weights attached to them because most indicators assessed were more generic. While integrated assessment method revealed that results would be less reliable if weighting and data collection were non-standardized and inconsistent. However, from the uncertainty’s perspectives, only integrated assessment tools considered fuzziness, grey and stochastic ambiguities in some of their methods, whereas product related assessment tools studied, ignored fuzziness and grey uncertainties completely.

Results of the Application of Direct-search Mobile Technology in the Exploration Blocks of Shakal and Halabja (Kurdistan)

Using experimental studies of mobile exploration technology, which includes modified methods of frequency-resonance processing, decoding of satellite and photographic images, vertical electron resonant scanning of the geological section, and the method of integral assessment of oil and gas content, the authors identified the potential of large prospecting blocks and licensed areas within the Shakal and Halabja blocks in Kurdistan. In the Shakal exploration area, the authors received oil responses from 3 intervals: 1) 2771-2794 m, 2) 2795.3-2815.45 m, and 3) 2834.40-2854 m in limestone sections. In Halabja exploration area, oil responses were obtained from 12 intervals: 1) 297-311.5 m, 2) 328-330 m, 3) 1190-1260 m, 4) 2018-2020 m, 5) 2059-2061 m, 6) 2132-2133 m, 7) 2192-2201 m, 8) 2249-2276 m, 9) 2307-2310 m, 10) 2317-2321 m, 11) 2326-2329 m and 12) 3310-3340 m. These results suggest that the proposed alternative exploration model can provide a more direct means of assessing the hydrocarbon potential of large exploratory areas, even before other geophysical investigations provide detailed information on possible targets.
